Summary
Zuko has not known real peace since the day he faced his sister in the Last Agni Kai many years ago.
No matter how many times he tried to bury them, his feelings for a particular waterbender refused to fade. At every shared meal with the Gaang, every sparring match in a courtyard, and every visit to the Fire Palace, he found himself hoping, just once, that her eyes would meet his and reignite the spark that had flared the moment he took Azula's lightning for her... but they never did.
Her gaze always found Aang's instead. And, as time went on, Zuko taught himself to look away — for their sake, and for the fragile balance of their friendship. The Avatar and the healer, bound together as if by fate.
But when Katara comes to the Fire Nation during a quiet break from Aang, the Fire Lord begins to notice something he hadn't allowed himself to see before. Whenever he looked away...
She always looked back.
(Set 10 years after the Hundred Year War, Post-Canon)

Summary
Ten years have passed since the war. Katara has spent them in near-total, self-imposed isolation on Crescent Island in an attempt to bury the memories of what she endured. Content to be forgotten while the rest of the Gaang rebuilds the world, she has chosen distance from everything she once thought she wanted.║After an assassination attempt leaves Fire Lord Zuko wounded and results in the death of his uncle, he goes to the one place he’d sworn never to return to: her. Reckless with grief and anger, an unravelling Zuko asks Katara to become the Southern Water Tribe’s ambassador in the Imperial City. Faced with the threat of another war breaking out, she has no other choice but to agree. But the longer she remains at court, the more she realises something is deeply wrong. Conspiracies are brewing beneath the surface, stretching across all four nations.║Zuko is not the boy she remembers, but there is something of him in the man she meets now for the first time. He is as obsessive and vengeful as a dragon, hardened by pain and betrayal. And despite everything she knows, despite every reason she gives herself to stay distant, to keep herself and her heart safe, she finds herself drawn back to him anyway. Like a moth to flame.

Summary
This story is roughly based on the characters as they are in Seasons 8 and 9. My story may be considered an AU, because the events do not always incorporate Series/Canon Events or Timelines.
Dean Winchester and Castiel share a deep bond that no one can break, and it sorta freaks Dean out - a lot. He has zero value for himself, and the concept of trusting anyone terrifies him so deeply he has become psychotically independent, and pushes everyone away who he might be able to depend on.
But Castiel won't settle for that; he sees Dean's soul, he knows the effect he has on Dean inside, whether Dean will admit it or not. He knows Dean complains about personal space to anyone who will listen, but he also knows that he can feel the deep sense of safety and relative peace Dean feels when he is close. So he's learned to sort of disregard the noises Dean makes.
My Castiel is not as battle unready, or as unworldly, as the series frequently depicts. Our intrepid heroes run into some pretty serious problems, but overcome them like they always do. Later chapters focus on Sabriel. We see Sam has been grieving Gabriel's loss, and since The Cage, has little patience for Gabe's Trickster side when he does show up.Bookmarked by Crystle8750

Summary
Dean's father answers a Help Wanted ad in the newspaper in hopes of finding a place to send his disgraced Omega son. Dean, still drowning in his own sorrows, can only go along with the plans set before him and help the Milton family the only way he knows how. He has no child of his own to feed, but he knows that he can help someone else's from starving.
Castiel Milton has just lost his mate and has been left alone to care for his infant daughter. Still, in need of breastfeeding, he is delighted to find that a smart, attentive, caring and beautiful omega has responded. But when they find out that perhaps they are more compatible then they'd ever planned, nature comes calling. No matter how stubborn they may be, nature always has a way of bringing designed matches together.
