Summary
It was the kind of thing that happened in folktales: a cursed prince, a transformation that could not be broken. Except those princes usually became monstrous-looking creatures who needed true love's kiss to return to normal. They did not get stuck as a six-year-old boy depending on a bald runt and two Water Tribe siblings.

Summary
Southern Water Tribe princess Katara is arranged to be married to Hahn, the arrogant Prince of the Northern Water Tribe, but after negotiations break down over women's rights to become waterbenders the marriage contract is broken. Angry over the loss of the financial gain Hahn's father, Chief Pakku, orders the Northern Water Tribe's Navy to cut off the Southern Water Tribe's main trade routes. Over the years Pakku's tactics take their toll on the Southern Water Tribe leaving them desolate without enough food or medicine to sustain the village. In a desperate bid to save his people Chief Hakoda negotiates an uneasy marriage alliance with their one time enemies, the Fire Nation.
Funding a war for 100 years has nearly bankrupted the Fire Nation forcing regent Fire Lord Iroh to agree to the marriage alliance between his nephew the future Fire Lord and the Water Tribe Princess, but the still embittered North will do anything in their power stop the alliance from happening and attacks the young newlyweds on their maiden voyage from Hira'a to the Fire Nation. Without the support of their friends, family, or countries Zuko and Katara must now survive the North's onslaught and each other.

Summary
To commemorate the end of the Hundred Years' War and to ensure nothing like that ever happens again, the Four Nations agree to hold a Summit every year. Two weeks of political talks, cultural immersion and utter harmony. As Fire Lord, Zuko is in charge of hosting the first, set in the Fire Nation capital. As war-heroes, Katara, Sokka, Toph, Suki and of course Aang are among the guests.
However, as Katara finds herself yearning for a life beyond that of the Avatar's faithful companion, it appears that politics will not be the only turbulent waters they have to navigate.

Summary
“We’re in the middle of the desert, waterbender. So you might have that barrel, but once it’s gone, what do you have?” Zuko moved forward, into her personal space. She was shorter than him, and he was using his height deliberately to glare down at her, but Katara didn’t back down. He could feel the sun soaking into him – his power was strongest while she was at her weakest, and for a moment he wished she would start something so that he could beat her in a fight. “I can make fire anywhere, and you might get one shot in, but then I am going to make you burn.”
The moment dragged out.
They were glaring.
Still glaring.
This was the point where the girl would usually be flying away on a bison and he’d be covered in perfume or something.
Something shifted in her expression, and Zuko started fully processing what he had just said, and how it could perhaps have been phrased a little—Her voice was completely flat. “Make. Me. Burn.” Her mouth tugged, started widening into a sly smile.
His stomach dropped. Oh no. “I meant it like—“
***
OR:
A good tip about a mountain pass leads Zuko and Iroh to Misty Palms Oasis a week early, and they run straight into some old enemies.

Summary
“One day you may never come back here,” he says, throwing a wool blanket over her legs, before he pulls it onto his.
“That doesn’t seem to be the way the magic works.” She speaks it into the night like a prayer, hoping tonight of all nights, that the darkness may lay claim to her.
A Hades and Persephone story cosplaying as fuck or die.

Summary
Zuko stood at his balcony, eyeing the beauty that was Caldera City. A few days ago, he was crowned Firelord Zuko, ruler of the Fire Nation. A tall responsibility for a seventeen year old boy. A seventeen year old boy who was once a traitor to his nation, a disgrace to his father, a failure to his people. Now? Well, now he is Firelord Zuko, and he’s not sure how ready he is for the new task.
~~~
As he thinks, Katara joins Zuko, asking why he jumped in front of the lightning for her.Bookmarked by catgotcaught

“If she's not your girlfriend, then why are you looking for an engaged girl?”
Zuko suddenly realizes how this might look: the Fire Prince searching for a young Water Tribe girl who is engaged to someone else...
“She's not my girlfriend!” Zuko says. And then, faced with June's judgmental gaze, he does what he does best: he panics and stops thinking. “She's my fiancée!”
Or: A moment of panic causes Zuko to lie. The temporary lie proves so useful that he starts lying more often. Somewhere along the way, Katara decides to play along.

Summary
Five years after the war, Fire Lord Zuko accidentally agrees to be temporarily cursed in an attempt to help the near extinct dragons. He needs a healer to help get him through one summer of regular transformations. Katara, of course, is the best one for the job.
Even if she exacerbates certain side effects; even if the side effects may require a new arrangement.
