Summary
Katara Luna's life has been nothing but difficult lately. Living with her family in a cramped apartment, with seven mouths to feed, Gran-Gran's care facility fees to pay and Suki has a baby on the way. They're strong people and Katara has hope that things will get better—Once she finishes her degree. No more working multiple jobs for shit pay and shittier customers. All she needs is one good stable job, life will get better. She knows it will.
Zuko's life has always been painful, but he doesn't mind—It drives him.
Pain is a lesson and suffering is his teacher. Especially being an up and coming MMA fighter. He's fought hard to make a name for himself. With Iroh as his coach and his own stubborn determination as his fuel. And now he has a chance, to make it, really make it—for his father to see him as more than a failure. He just has to put together a 'winning team'. Something he doesn't need. He knows his limits. It's not like they can afford something like that anyway—No he just needs to keep pushing, even if it's painful…Maybe, one day, they'll find out that what they wanted in life, was not what they thought they needed.
Well, that's what Iroh hopes for any way—once the shouting matches end, of course… -

Summary
Their sixth year has barely begun.
Zuko and Draco are best friends… And so are their fathers.
Both of whom loyally serve the Dark Lord as his Grand Banneret, with the full expectation of their son's to follow in their footsteps.
Something neither Slytherin wants, but accepts nonetheless, knowing they have no choice.
And then there's those two Witches.
Katara and Hermione.
Both captivating, brilliant, and completely out of reach.
Just as they've resigned themselves to watching from afar, a spark is ignited. A spark that threatens to burn everything they've carefully built to ash.
Because now, they're killers.

Summary
The Water Tribe ambassador and Fire Lord are working late one evening
Both of them tired, Zuko suggests they have a few drinks. After drunkenly opening up about their sub-par sex lives, Katara suggests they try one another out. And Zuko agrees.After an intense--and admittedly mind-blowing--night of sex, they enter an agreement to explore things further, as 'Friends with Benefits'
OR
“What if we had an arrangement?”
I suggest, the idea forming even as I speak it.
“When I visit you here in the Fire Nation, or if we're in the same place while traveling, if we’re both wanting it, we could... have sex.” Heat rises to my cheeks. “Not a relationship. No strings attached. No complicated emotions. Just two friends taking care of each other’s needs.”

Summary
Zuko took the lightning, and he almost paid the ultimate price.
If not for the amazing Waterbending master, who refuses to leave his side while he recovers.
The two support each other through all new trials and battles of a different nature. Some fights take a harder toll than others.
They find time to learn how to love, and figure out who they are outside of the war... all while navigating assassination attempts and threats from Ozai's supporters, and the consequences of the former fire lord still being alive.

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.

Update: Currently going through an editing overhaul. Will begin adding new chapter each week starting 06/01/2026
Thanks for your patience!
Maybe they were wrong.
Maybe they lied.
Or worse, they knew the truth.
Maybe the prophecy always focused on the wrong person, changing the tide of history, shielding the true hero all the way to the end.
<><><><><><><><><><><><><
During and post war.
This is a WIP. Please be patient with me.
Warning: Graphic violence, mature language, mature sexual content and situations, explicit language.

Summary
Katara fucking hates her neighbor.
She's one sleep deprived surgery away from shoving a scalpel into his neck - even if he is unforgivably hot and covered in tattoos.
Zuko's neighbor is scary.
He's an FBI agent used to putting his life on the line at work and now, apparently, at home.

Summary
Aang didn't plan to hurt Katara—it just happened. She's already forgiven Zuko, she can forgive the Avatar too. Katara will protect Aang's innocence, even if she needs to hide her scars to do so.
Love is a battlefield, but that just means someone's bound to get hurt.
(It's alright, though—Zuko will help her heal.)
.
Or: Aang's fight with Katara results in an accident more brutal than anything they've faced before. Zuko's there to pick up the pieces.
