Summary
He refused to leave Akechi here to fucking die in the bowels of his asshole father's ship. He'd give anything. He'd beg, he'd pray, he'd switch places with him, he didn't care, just please, someone—
"I have the strength you seek, voleur de coeurs, but your heart is not yet prepared to hold me."
Agony pulsed from his temples and lanced down his spine, thorns lodging between every column. Fire seared through his veins, charring into his fingertips. He choked on smoke and ash in his lungs.
Akira dropped in time with the gunshots he didn't hear over the sound of his own screaming. His knees cracked against the ground.
He remembered this sensation.
This was so much worse than Arsene.
I say: "Watch me save him."

Summary
Aang isn’t the Avatar. But… he used to be…
But water doesn’t call to him, not in the way he knows it’s supposed to. And then, he is saved from Pohuai Stronghold by… an airbender?!
This masked guy that saved him, rescuing him with two swords and a small bout of accidental airbending… is the Avatar. Not Aang. Not… not anymore.
And he’s looking for a Master to teach him air.

Summary
Zuko thinks the Avatar's collection of misfits is behaving weirdly. They're constantly acting like they know something he doesn't, like they know him when they definitely shouldn't, and they're constantly trying to get him to join them! Which he would never do!
(For some reason, Sokka, Katara, and Aang have memories of growing old, and all the steps it took to get there, but have no idea what triggered it other than breaking Aang out of the iceberg. Naturally, they want things to be better, but teenage Zuko, still in his angry yelling phase? Adorable. They can work with this.)

If You Make It Out Alive, Hold That Bloody Head Up High by Anonymous

Summary
For a moment he focused on what seemed to be the truth. Zuko was once again seven years old. He was no longer thirty nor was he Fire Lord, so he had to do away with that mindset. Zuko was seven and had just excelled at his first ever Firebending lessons. Azula was five and still unsure of her role in the universe, his Mother was still with him, Ozai was plotting to take the throne, and Aang was twelve and frozen in a block of ice.
Zuko has been Fire Lord for over twenty years when he falls into the past. Quickly realizing he is a combatant in the battle for Azula's soul, he also comes to understand that ---as her older brother--- he has the chance to be the only player in the game.

Summary
The last thing he remembers is being struck by Azula's lightning on the fateful day of the comet, but when Zuko opens his eyes he is faced with an Avatar's innocent question of friendship. Has he failed at bringing balance to the world or is this the Spirit's giving him another chance?
All he knows is he's not going to mess it up this time.

Summary
Kya, five months pregnant and with Sokka in a carrier slung over her back, took one look at Ursa as she first stepped onto the ice and immediately launched into full hostess mode. The Fire Nation woman barely had time to blink before she’d been whisked away to the chieftain’s tent to receive much warmer clothing, her son and daughter similarly situated nearly as quickly. It felt distinctly odd to see such obvious outsiders dressed in the colors of his people, but after a bit of staring Hakoda shrugged it off and settled back into the routines of village life.

Summary
Toph knew about soulmarks. She knew about the words that danced across a person’s skin, in elegant script or rough characters, changing to match the most prevalent thoughts in their soulmate’s head. She knew some people had only one, while others could carry two or even three sets of words, destiny’s way of chucking a rock to say hey, you’re gonna want to listen to these guys. She knew that when soulmates met, the marks changed color from plain black to match one another’s eyes, or the color of their bond, or something sappy like that.
What Toph didn’t know was if she bore any soulmarks to match the heartbeats she could sometimes feel fluttering over her skin.

Summary
Katara aimed her own set of polar bear-puppy eyes in Sokka’s direction, with a distinctly panicked slant to her mouth. He gulped, then took a deep breath and squared his shoulders. “Look, uh, Aang, and Zuko- there- there aren’t any southern waterbenders anymore. And. There haven’t been any airbenders either, not in a hundred years, when Sozin’s Comet kinda kickstarted the war.”
The baby dragon made an unhappy squeak as its owner staggered backwards to drop onto his butt in the snow.

Summary
Hakoda looks over at the fire nation military plans scattered across his table, turning to watch the prince of said nation sitting calmly in the chair across from him. He asks the only other question that he needs to know.
"Why?"
Zuko takes in a soft breath as he contemplates his words. In truth, he's been contemplating how to answer this question ever since he decided to turn his back on the only home he's ever known.
"Because my father is-.. a bad person. But I... am not."
It's taken Zuko a long time to be able to say those words and actually believe them.
---------Zuko gets a chance to do things right. He does not intend to waste that chance this time.

Summary
Aang knew those swords. He’d seen them every day, felt the warm, if rough, presence of their owner in all his hardest moments and coldest flights. He was a strong figure, gentle in his own way. A Firebender who still used swords.

There needs to be more platonic soulmate AUs, you guys. Come on. Who wants to see Zuko get dragged into his redemption arc by his soulmates?
