The Great Big Fish Wants A:tLA Captivity and Slavery Fic Rec Post

[attackfish]

I have a craving I just can't deny.  I want the angstiest whumpiest captivity and slavery fic you can link me to in this fandom

Some rules:

No "Zuko holds such and such character captive and they fall in looove!"  No.  If the captive falls in love with the captor, it better be seriously screwed up.

Gen is best

I love angst

Absolutely no Ty Zula under any circumstances

The Fire Sage (http://archiveofourown.org/works/133156) by jalendavi_lady -- Fire Sage Shyu was taken into military custody after the events at Crescent Island. What happened to him afterward? [WARNING: Contains cold blooded torture (non-bloody variant, physical appearance of injuries not clearly described) and its aftermath.]

And, um, there's one particular Katara/Zuko fic I know of that fits your criteria. Into the Inferno (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3471273/1/Into-the-Inferno) by InkHeart17. It's decidedly non-romantic Zutara, and by the end of it I wanted Zuko to die in a fire. You know how it's a Zutaran cliche that Zuko was really chasing after Katara that whole time in Season 1? It demonstrates, at length, that the sort of person who would forcibly pursue Katara and capture her in the cliche Zutaran fashion would not be an adorkable Prince Charming. He'd be a scary SOB.

Yum, whump.

The way it was meant to be (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4753516/1/The_Way_it_Was_Meant_to_Be) is pretty much whump all the way through. Same for Second nature (http://m.fanfiction.net/s/5145003/1/). I'm a horrible person who lost interest in both as soon as the whump parts were over.

The apple falls far (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5786482/1/The_Apple_Falls_Far) and its sequel 'Far from the tree' in (http://feral-shrew.livejournal.com/885.html) three (http://feral-shrew.livejournal.com/1212.html) parts (http://feral-shrew.livejournal.com/1444.html).

For two seconds I was going to rec you 'Ice flows through'. Should probably go back to work before my brain dies entirely for the day.

A Learning Experience is Zukka, but it has captivity and a heavy Zuko whump in the later chapters.

The chapters Walls, Exchange, and Myth of the story collection "Fragments" all feature some sort of captivity in addition to the collection's theme of Zuko getting whumped.

If stories with whumping but no captivity are okay, I could recommend a few more.

And there's one more that I forgot earlier: Held Captive. I will warn you that this one contains rape.

I remembered a super-whumpy one about Zuko being the captive after the siege of the north...but it was 'second nature' recced above (am slowww). and also 'apple falls far'
Zuko is kind of a captive for much of 'Reluctant Hero' by P.A.W. 07,
checking thru faves/follows wll take a while and rl has been interfering...so might come back and comment here in a few days/over weekend or something.

how's the convention?

Okay not sure if you've already seen this or if it's what you're looking for or... BUT Dude Looks Like a Lady! and Misguided Misfortune by ShadowBYeBYe are both great Zuko whump stories. Serious warning though: Misguided Misfortune is very graphic, so beware. Hope this helps!
