Tea and Firebending
“Zuko lay sleeping in the barn of the family who had taken him in. He was behind a few hay bales but heard rustling in the main area of the barn. He saw light grow and die quickly, softly, and heard small, child-like grunts of effort coming from the source of the light. He sat up, loose hay in his hair and clothes, and saw the boy, Li, doing a pathetic excuse for ... firebending? Li looked at Zuko, alerted by his movement, and his face quickly turned to one of terror.”
What if instead of stealing his swords in the middle of the night, the little boy from “Zuko Alone” was secretly a firebender? One shot.
I know its technically spelled “Lee” but I like Li. Idk where this came from but it was sitting half written in my notes app for like, ever, so I tacked on kind of a shitty ending and am presenting it to you, the people. do enjoy, or dont, i cant tell u what to do.
trigger warning///
there is a small, non graphic refrence to rape. basically li is a firebender bc his biological father is some random fire nation soldier who invaded his village and raped his mom so its kinda fucked up but the actual fic graces over it this description is worse than what they actually say but yeah be forewarned
(See the end of the work for more notes.)
