Summary
Zuko had scrubbed the smell of sex and blood of himself, but that didn’t stop it from clinging to the inside of his nose. Could the others smell it? Could they taste his shame in the back of their throats too?
Irrationally, Zuko wanted to crawl inside himself. Peel those watching eyes off him; don’t look at me! They knew, somehow. They could see it on him. Some kind of tell, some stain he couldn’t see or wash away.
What if they all knew? Laughing behind his back at what he’d given up just for a fraction of a chance to get his honor back.
What honor? Any scrap he’d had left after the Agni Kai was lost the moment he spread his legs for Zhao.
They could all see it, couldn’t they?
Zuko wondered if he could ever be rid of the things Zhao did to him.
Zuko deals with the aftermath.
He goes about it the same way he deals with every other shitty thing in his life: with gritted teeth, stubborn pride, and a whole lot of yelling.Series

Summary
Closing his eyes, Zuko breathed deep through his nose. In and out. Just focus on his breath control and not what awaited him in the other room.
For a split second, the only thing he wanted was to bolt back out the window, through the harbor and back to the safety of the Pariah. Zuko just wanted to go home.
This is the only way you’re going to be able to go home, he reminded himself. Repair the ship, capture the Avatar, restore your honor. This is a small price to pay for that.
Swallowing, Zuko forced his feet forward.
Zuko's visit to Zhao's port goes a little differently.
or
Zuko has a deal where a trades sexual favors with Zhao for aid and supplies. This gets him in trouble when his ship is damaged by the Avatar and the only safe place to dock is at the port of everyone's least favorite (Vice) Admiral.
And he's in heat.Series

Summary
Zuko was born with shit luck. Maybe he was cursed in the womb. Some spirit decided 'fuck this kid in particular' and gave him the unluckiest luck ever.
It seemed that every time something good happened to him, something else had to come around and kick him in the ass to make up for it. It was like there was some cosmic balance that demanded it.
Case in point: Zuko finally found the Avatar.
The Avatar; who was a twelve year old boy. A twelve year old boy that somehow managed to nearly sink his ship and drown his entire crew, resulting in Zuko having to limp his way to the only port that would take them. A port run by motherfucking Zhao.
And Zuko was in heat.
The only way Zhao was ever going to repair his ship was if Zuko gave his body in exchange. Surely that won't have any consequences...- Words:

Summary

Zuko is staring at a ghost, and from the stricken lines of Jet's face, he might be too.

Summary
When Zuko gets knocked out (again) during the town fight in Zuko Alone, he doesn't pop back up again. He wakes up hours later at an Earth Army camp with amnesia and enlistment forms that say his name is Li.
Thus begins the biggest headache of Captain Wu's career, which just might tip the balance of the war.

Summary
When Azula is nine, she becomes an only child. She hears the Fire Lord call for Zuko's life, and in the morning, her mother and brother are gone. Azula may be young, but she isn't naive. She knows what happened to them.
Which makes it all the more surprising when Azula tracks the Avatar down and fights his group of peasant friends, only to find herself staring into an eerily familiar face.
