A Fog From the Past (that's giving me such a headache) by babbling_bedlamite

Summary
"It's very rare for a Guide to survive the death of their Sentinel. A Bonded relationship is so symbiotic that it is difficult for one to live without the other. And that isn't taking into account the emotional backlash that the death of such a pillar would cause. Usually in the few cases where a Guide or a Sentinel survives the death of their partner, there is a child or other dependent involved. The majority of those Guide's and Sentinel's, after the bond to their partner is severed, their minds and senses are blown completely open. All of their shielding dies with their partner. But occasionally, a Guide looses their partner and they go Offline. Their shielding is gone but their minds are still closed. Something about the stress of the loss destroys the Guide's natural empathetic ability and, usually, their ability to empathize at all."
Tomoe is gone but Kotetsu survived. They declared him offline and Kotetsu did not argue. But Jake Martinez is about to expose a secret that Kotetsu has been hiding for five years.

Summary
“So our meeting was fate?” He asked.
He’d never been much of a fan of fate. It had always seemed like fate had had it out for him and Steve. It had been fated that Steve’s mother would contract TB after working in the wards. It was fated that he would be drafted, so he might as well have enlisted. It was fate that Steve would die.
“One fate of many,” Yuuko said. “From our meeting today, the future branches off in one direction. In a universe where we never met it branches off a different way. Your wish will…shape the century. Tell me, what is your wish?”

Summary
There’s an assassin in Sparky’s bedroom. It’s the only explanation for the extra heartbeat. The sounds of exertion. The ominous thumping of furniture. Fueled by both duty and friendship, Toph crashes in, ready for battle-
Only to get smacked by a faceful of Sokka’s new perfume.

Summary
Chief Arnook never assigns Sokka to protect Princess Yue, so he goes to fight the Fire Nation with the other men. When the moon dies and the ocean spirit takes its revenge, Sokka is caught standing on the deck of a Fire Nation ship. Sokka should have drowned… and he would have drowned, if not for a certain Fire Nation raft fleeing the North Pole.
[An enemies-to-lovers season 2 rewrite, where Sokka is separated from the gaang during the Siege of the North, and travels the Earth Kingdom with Zuko instead].

Summary
“Blessed Spirit, we thank you for the gift of this child’s life. We are forever in your debt.” The whole village is kneeling now, even the tiniest toddlers flopped down on their stomachs doing their best approximation of a bow. “Please, won’t you give us a name to call you? We would like to properly express our gratitude.”
Oh.
Well shit.
(Where Zuko saves a little Earth Kingdom girl from drowning, the villagers think he's a Spirit, build him a shrine, and long story short, a fake story about the Blue Spirit who dances with dragons suddenly becomes very real.)
