Summary
Percy’s mother was nice, pretty, caring and terribly unlucky.
Percy knew that. He knew that his mother had been through a lot, and he also knew that the tale she had told him, about parents that died in plane crashes and uncles that died of cancer, was not the truth. Or at least not the entirety of it anyway. He still remembered the one time he had found this book squashed somewhere in the last nook of the bookshelf. It was a deep green and when he opened it the name Saffine Riddle was written on the upper left corner in neat letters.
Or: When a long forgotten letter resurfaces, secrets of the past start to unravel that might change the course of history forever.
Or: The one in which Sally is Voldemorts runaway squib daughter, the Gods have beef with the wizards, Percy is going through divine puberty, English weather sucks even more than usual, Dumbledore is suspicious, the Golden Trio are surprisingly apt detectives, the Slytherins fancy themselves traditionalists, everyone is prone to joining cults and Snape is just trying to teach potions.

Summary
“What do you remember?” Sokka asks, even though he knows he shouldn’t. Even though he knows better.
But he also knew better than to save a dragon from certain death.
The dragon is silent for so long that Sokka thinks it won’t answer him. He watches the rise and fall of its chest just to ensure it isn’t dead.
"Burning," it answers eventually. "I remember burning."
Or: Sokka finds a wounded dragon outside of his village a month before his sister discovers the Avatar trapped in the ice.

Summary
“Slaughter this, slaughter that,” the redhead parrots, rolling her eyes. “What are you, some angsty teenager?”
“Yes,” Kirito answers quietly, and Asuna flinches. “I am a teenager. I’m also a murderer. I feel I’ve earned the right to be a little…” his mouth twitches, “dramatic.”
The girl huffs, glancing down. “I suppose. But-“ her eyes swing upward, boring into him. “That’s not why you spoke up at the meeting today.”
“It isn’t,” Kirito agrees, looking away. “Truth be told, it would work perfectly,” he smiles grimly. “Too perfectly. The boss would simply seek out low-leveled players in the area of a seemingly-peaceful town. It would be a massacre.”
Asuna’s mouth hangs open for a moment before she snaps it shut. “Wh-“
“You didn’t think of that,” Kirito murmurs. “No one did. No one ever thinks about the children.”
“We’re children,” Asuna replies numbly, almost automatically.
“Don’t lie. It’s beneath you.”

Summary
There is a moment when the Fire Nation soldiers come for Aang where Sokka throws off the pretense of his human form, and is unexpectedly met with a mirror.
The man— boy? The person who had been leading the soldiers down the ramp of the old cruiser discards his human shape at nearly the same moment, and there is a pause, startled as much as anything, where two very uncertain dragons bristle, arch their necks, and hiss like angry, overgrown geese.

Summary
“I want to see,” Sokka croaked, even though he was terrified and sick with dread.
A traitorous part inside of him still clung to the hope that Suki wouldn’t be able to show him. That this was all a very twisted, very cruel joke he would definitely be angry about for at least a few weeks. “I have to see him.”
But Suki simply stepped away, wiped her tears with the back of her hand and squared her jaw. “...Follow me.”
Or: Since becoming Fire Lord, Zuko's gotten used to attempts on his life but he never had to go this far before (aka spymaster au)

Summary
After the infamous Agni Kai, Zuko is never sent on a fool's errand to capture the Avatar. Instead, Fire Lord Ozai believes his son to have succumbed to infection from the burn. Little does he know that Iroh smuggled the former prince out on a ship. Unfortunately, that ship is captured by pirates and everyone on it enslaved.
Years later, King Bumi finds a young firebender on General Fong's military base. The boy is injured, malnourished, and obviously mistreated, forced to fight earthbenders as part of Fong's secret training regimen. Bumi takes issue with this.

Summary
[The hair on the back of his neck rises mid-step but by then it’s already too late, the air shifts and within the blink of an eye there’s a blade to his throat.
“You should watch where you’re going.”
It’s said like a threat but Sokka remains calm, letting out a slow exhale as he lowers his right hand to the hilt of his dagger. “Doing drills in the garden, or looking for a fight?”
“Tsk.” The blade is lowered and Sokka subsequently turns to face his current main lead in this investigation.]
OR
After receiving the blessing of the Moon Spirit, Sokka has the ability to trace spiritual energy and takes up work in the Spirit Guidance Council. One day, he’s assigned a case in a remote Earth Kingdom farming village that has been haunted by a dark phantom spreading misfortune and fear for multiple years. The case leads him to a boy who emits abnormal levels of spiritual energy; a boy who might be hiding a lot more than a dark past.

Summary
The first time Zuko met Aang was when he had snuck out of the palace at age 14.
Because somehow this led to Zuko finding a baby monk yelling his lungs out for help from the top of a tree that he was very clearly stuck in despite any possible air bending the young monk could have done.
And somehow, 2 years later this led to both boys being caught in a storm that had them frozen in ice for the next 100 years

Summary
When Zuko was thirteen, his father attempted to kill him by the command of Firelord Azulon, burning through half of his face with the fiercest flame he could conjure. When Zuko failed to die, Ursa begged for her son’s life in exchange for the Firelord’s. She fled with her children after delivering counterfeit poison to Ozai and they hid among the refugees of Ba Sing Se.
A baby was left at their door when Zuko was seventeen, from an encounter he could not recall. His mother wailed harder than the newborn infant when she found out about his work as an escort. He quit that day, and named his daughter Izumi.
At twenty-three, Zuko meets Katara and Sokka, who both fled their homes as children to seek refuge from the raids of their tribe. However, Zuko meets them in very different circumstances: Katara as a trainee at the strip club he works at, and Sokka as his daughter’s teacher at Ba Sing Se Primary School.

Summary
Zuko stared up at him with his large, gold eye. “How are you on the Sovereign then? We’re just barely out of Fire Nation Waters, you know.”
It was a perfectly reasonable question, Zuko thought, but the expression on the man’s face switched from constipated to ashy, so he must have said something wrong. “I’m so not doing this right now.” The man muttered before bellowing. “Hakoda! Get your scrawny ass over here and handle this!”
“That’s a naughty word.” Zuko pointed out, squirming uncomfortably in the man’s grip. “Can you please put me down now?” This whole adventure had already managed to go spectacularly sideways.

All The Words You Don't Say by burglar_bird

Summary
Zuko rarely made noise. Even his voice echoed his loyalty to the quiet; brittle, raspy, reluctant to leave his mouth, even when he forced it through his teeth. People shied from him, off-put by his hoarse words and empty stare. His silence spoke for him. It said all the words he couldn’t voice until there was no need to open his mouth at all.
But when he meets the children in the desert, that begins to change.
