Summary
Zuko had scrubbed the smell of sex and blood of himself, but that didn’t stop it from clinging to the inside of his nose. Could the others smell it? Could they taste his shame in the back of their throats too?
Irrationally, Zuko wanted to crawl inside himself. Peel those watching eyes off him; don’t look at me! They knew, somehow. They could see it on him. Some kind of tell, some stain he couldn’t see or wash away.
What if they all knew? Laughing behind his back at what he’d given up just for a fraction of a chance to get his honor back.
What honor? Any scrap he’d had left after the Agni Kai was lost the moment he spread his legs for Zhao.
They could all see it, couldn’t they?
Zuko wondered if he could ever be rid of the things Zhao did to him.
Zuko deals with the aftermath.
He goes about it the same way he deals with every other shitty thing in his life: with gritted teeth, stubborn pride, and a whole lot of yelling.Series

Summary
Closing his eyes, Zuko breathed deep through his nose. In and out. Just focus on his breath control and not what awaited him in the other room.
For a split second, the only thing he wanted was to bolt back out the window, through the harbor and back to the safety of the Pariah. Zuko just wanted to go home.
This is the only way you’re going to be able to go home, he reminded himself. Repair the ship, capture the Avatar, restore your honor. This is a small price to pay for that.
Swallowing, Zuko forced his feet forward.
Zuko's visit to Zhao's port goes a little differently.
or
Zuko has a deal where a trades sexual favors with Zhao for aid and supplies. This gets him in trouble when his ship is damaged by the Avatar and the only safe place to dock is at the port of everyone's least favorite (Vice) Admiral.
Also he's in heat.Series

Summary
Zuko was born with shit luck. Maybe he was cursed in the womb. Some spirit decided 'fuck this kid in particular' and gave him the unluckiest luck ever.
It seemed that every time something good happened to him, something else had to come around and kick him in the ass to make up for it. It was like there was some cosmic balance that demanded it.
Case in point: Zuko finally found the Avatar.
The Avatar; who was a twelve year old boy. A twelve year old boy that somehow managed to nearly sink his ship and drown his entire crew, resulting in Zuko having to limp his way to the only port that would take them. A port run by motherfucking Zhao.
And Zuko was in heat.
The only way Zhao was ever going to repair his ship was if Zuko gave his body in exchange. Surely that won't have any consequences...- Words:

Summary
High in the halls of ice and wintry waters, an iceberg cracks.
They tend to do that. It’s hardly a unique occurence. Every day, babies are born, good men die, fires start, and ice breaks.
It is natural. It is meant to be.
(It’s a sign)
The Avatar wakes in a changed world a century later. An almost three year search comes to fruition.
It is all different, though. Years of rumor and story have been allowed to flourish.

Summary
Four years after Prince Zuko had successfully captured the Avatar and returned home, Aang's friends are still struggling to continue fighting without him in a world run by the Fire Nation. Then one night, a small group of Earth Kingdom rebels accidentally run into Prince Zuko during one of their heists – and it seems like the fate of the world could change once again. There's just one small problem...
"I – um, okay –" Sokka shook his head, "mind explaining to me what the hell's going on?"
Zuko was still clearly debating between not wanting to willingly explain anything ever – and shutting Sokka up as quickly as possible.
After a moment's deliberation, he finally replied, "She's my daughter," and then added in an oddly pleading tone, "– please don't make an issue out of this, okay?"
Sokka stared at him, absolutely dumbfounded. "Your daughter... You – you have a child!?"

Summary
There is no war in Ba Sing Se. At least, not in the traditional sense. But the city has a dark underbelly that too many know about, but too few have the power to fix. From the Upper Ring, the Dai Li rules with an iron fist. But everyone knows that, while the Dai Li watches from above, vicious gangs have control of the streets.
Zuko knows all about the way this city works. His birth family had a hand in its corruption, after all. But right now, he's only focused on keeping his head down in his new foster home. But as he starts to connect with his new family, he realizes that fate isn't something so easily changed.

agni has (not) abandoned him [rewrite] by iliwaren

Summary
He survived two-and-a-half years as General Fong’s training dummy, months as Zhao’s prisoner, and weeks as a captive aboard the Chief of the Southern Water Tribe’s ship, all the while refusing to let his father’s cold, firelit eyes be the last he saw of the man. There was no way these children would keep him from going home.
"Yes," Zuko lied. 'I’ll help you defeat my father."
Or: After three years of imprisonment, Zuko escapes, just in time to arrive at the climax of the Invasion of Ba Sing Se. From there, he travels with the Avatar's team - first as a political prisoner and then, maybe (and indignantly), as Aang's firebending teacher.
(Zuko wonders why Agni let him suffer in the cold for so many years only to make him the Avatar's mentor. Destiny is a cruel, complicated thing. It takes him a while to figure out his.)
