    Summary

    There were hands on his arms, pushing him onto his back. Aang and Toph’s worried face swam before him. A shiver ran through Zuko’s spine as he spotted the shadow hovering behind them. It had no face, barely a form, but it was grinning.

    “Come on.” Aang and Toph each grabbed and arm, pulling him onto his feet. “Are you all right? Can you walk?”

    Zuko wanted to warn them. Wanted to tell them to run. But Aang’s hands on his arms barely registered, and he couldn’t get his tongue to move, much less his feet. He tied - he tried - to lift his hand… but his body… he couldn’t feel anything, it was all pins and needles. All he could feel was menacing cold emanating from the shadow looming over him.

    When Aang, Toph, and Zuko decide to explore a long abandonned ancient sun warrior's temple on Ember Island, Zuko ends up getting shot in the neck with poisoned darts. It gets worse from there.

    Summary

    For a hundred years, war and devastation consumed the world. Aang was one of only people left to remember that it ever used to be different. To remember that there was a time when sixteen year old boys weren’t dressed in armor and sent to commit acts of violence, and twelve year old kids weren’t meant to stop them. To remember having friends in the Fire Nation. To remembers walking through Caldera City with Kuzon, choking on Fire Flakes, and watching street performers.

    So now that Zuko was here asking for redemption...well, being friends sounded better than being enemies.

    Maybe their friendship was destined to be. Maybe together they could bring back some of what was lost.

    (AKA, After Zuko joins the Gaang, Aang gets to know him and they become friends).

    Summary

    a series of events in which zuko learns to open up about his scar, all thanks to aang and his kind, albeit childish, ways.

    “Hey, Aang,” Zuko started, setting the ledger down. “When’s the last time you’ve practiced your firebending?”

    By the glint in Aang’s eyes, he knew exactly what Zuko meant.
