    Summary

    Ever since they’d returned from the Boiling Rock, Zuko hadn’t been able to make himself stop shaking.

    Or: After the Boiling Rock, Zuko's anxiety is running at an all-time-high. One thing leads to another, and it ends with him having a full-blown panic attack slash flashback over dinner. Just great.

    (Inspired by about every other Zuko-has-a-panic-attack-fic ever.)

    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

    “And what do you want in return?  Your freedom? Your safety?”

    Jaskier didn’t flinch from her scorn and Geralt could see his knuckles go white with the force of his grip around the small vial.  “Save him.”

    The mage stared at him for a beat before letting out a burst of laughter that echoed off the wall like the flutter of vultures wings.  “All this trouble for the Witcher?” she asked incredulously, “Tell me, boy, do you really think he would do the same for you? That he cares at all what happens to the bard who follows after him like a lost puppy?”  She stepped forward, confident as a soldier preparing his death blow. “Oh, I know who you are, bard. I watched you trailing after the Witcher, eager for every scrap of affection or interest he’ll toss your way. I’ve seen the way you look at him.”

    Jaskier was breathing heavily now, jaw clenched tight enough that Geralt could see the muscles fluttering with effort.

    “Were you hoping this ill-conceived rescue mission would be enough to make him finally notice you?” she murmured with a mocking smile, “Poor little bard--always singing of love but never truly experiencing it.”

    Summary

    Zuko comes to a stop in front of Ozai, looking down on his kneeling form. A bitter laugh rises in his throat, because it’s so stupid how the roles have been reversed so quickly, but the memory of Azula’s laughter, wild and uncontrolled and unhinged, everything that she never was, makes him swallow it down.
    So he just looks at him. And Ozai looks back.

     

    Takes place right after Aang and Ozai's battle and the final Agni Kai between Azula and Zuko. The Gaang reunites, and Zuko confronts Ozai.
