Birthday AU Commentfic Meme!

[attackfish]

It’s my birth month, and to celebrate, I’m hosting a commentfic meme!  I’m in the mood to write some AU fics, so that’s the theme of the meme.  I’m open to both Avatar: the Last Airbender and Harry Potter requests, and I’m also taking requests in any of my existing AUs (Except Children of Mars), including the ones I established im my last commentfic meme, as well as new ones.  Comment with up to five requests, and I’ll guarantee you at least one commentfic.  I’ll probably answer with more, knowing me.  weirdlet , beboots , and floranna  get seven requests and a guarantee of two fics, because beboots  and floranna  are the best betas ever, and weirdlet  has a truly bizarre AU I inflicted on her rattling around in her head.  Also, anyone who wants me to write anything from my AU of Sun Child needs to ask weirdlet  and floranna , because it’s theirs.

*Closed and Finished*

Given that this meme has spawned a fair few universes, sorting the fics by requester would be clunky, so instead, I'm sorting them by universe this time.

Oh, I've only seen it abbreviated A:tLA. Most of the modern day AUs I know of are really really shippy.

Re: Modern Day: Toph and Aang

[water-soter.livejournal.com]

Ah, huh, I had only seen it like ALAB. I don't mind ship, slash/het just really good stories and since you're amazing, I know anything you recommend would be good.

It's really not my crack (I tend to prefer fantasy and scifi AUs of non-fantasy/scifi shows) so I don't have many, but transference by scuttlebutt inc (two author team) is good: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4555190/1/Transference (Zukka) as is Irrel's AU, which is a Zutara webcomic http://paolairene.com/irrelsau/?p=157 (though it has not blind!Toph which pisses me off) hmmm, really don't know many. I know a couple of modern technology but not our universe fics too, but it's really as I said, not my crack.

Ah, no prob! Thank you so much for taking the time to give me these! I do love school AU, but any you can rec since I'm pretty new to this fandom . . .

So as you will be able to see, Alternate Timeline AUs are my special crack! That and Avatar!Zuko. Yeah, I know. My first bit of advice is to check out avocado_love's rec list. http://avocado-love.livejournal.com/23888.html and also, all her fics. They're gooooooood. And this is from someone who only shares a few favorite ships with her.

In no particular order:

Strike Me Down by suzukiblu: http://community.livejournal.com/white_knuckle/tag/%5Bstory%5D%20needz%20moar% Summary: Toph makes a mistake, Zuko makes it worse, and saving the world’s never been so hard as when it’s the bad guy who needs the saving. Notes: alternate season 2, timeline makes no sense. I dare you to care.

Without a Fight and Never Give Up by suzukiblu (anything by her, really) http://community.livejournal.com/white_knuckle/42561.html and http://community.livejournal.com/white_knuckle/58972.html Summary: An AU take on Zuko’s banishment. “Thirteen years old and alone in the Earth Kingdom, thrown out of his life and family and destiny with the burn on his face still raw and new, Zuko does not want to go on.”

Resistance is Futile by Jakia: http://jakia.livejournal.com/39726.html No author summary. Just read it, it's short. Has a sort of remix by beckyh2112 http://beckyh2112.livejournal.com/394757.html, and with these two fics, you can see the seeds of Ice Flows through.

Something to Hold on To by aliwildgoose: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5278686/1/Something_To_Hold_Onto Summary: Jet and his second command, a mysterious boy named Li, have spent the summer piecing together an army, hoping for a chance to take Ba Sing Se back for good. But Li is also Zuko, and the time for that secret is quickly running out. Jetko

The Madness of Dawn by stingmon: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5530042/1/The_Madness_of_dawn Summary: Your name is Li; you're not a bender. Your name is Li; you're not a bender. Your name's Li; you're not a bender. One-sided Jetko. warning, creepy.

Reluctant Hero by P.A.W. 07 http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5942075/1/ Summary: It had been an accident. That was what Zuko had said to his crew when he bended an element he hadn't been meant to. He wasn't the Avatar. The newest Avatar was in the Earth-kingdom hidden by its walls. Unless that Avatar had died long ago. So … how had he done it? AU

Life Began With Waking Up by Rawles: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3196414/1/Life_Began_with_Waking_Up Summary: It was a simple truth that Mai had never really thought about her children. MaiZuko. notes: This is my all time favorite fic of my all time favorite pairing. I may be a bit biased. Rawles's work in general is excellent, especially if you like Maiko.

Another Brother by avocado-love (well, everything she's written, really): http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4414541/1/Another_Brother Summary: It was a mission of revenge. There weren't supposed to be any survivors, but Chief Hakoda couldn't bring himself to kill the Fire Nation boy. Against his better judgment, he brought him home. A Zuko joins the Water Tribe story.

Lose Yourself and Find Yourself by avocado_love: http://avocado-love.livejournal.com/134328.html http://avocado-love.livejournal.com/138253.html , http://avocado-love.livejournal.com/147679.html , http://avocado-love.livejournal.com/153028.html , http://avocado-love.livejournal.com/159746.html

Enslaved by sharkflip: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5306755/1/Enslaved Summary: A triumphant war party returns with an exotic slave, a gift for the ruling house. Katara and Zuko AU Notes:I am not a Zutaran. Zutara fics tend to annoy me. Enslaved just rocks that hard.

Excuse the html fail on the comment above. Also A Beginner's Guide to Lemon Tea by antistar_e: http://community.livejournal.com/veritasrecords/40266.html No author summary, In an AU were Zuko never left to join the Avatar, Azula comes to her brother and his family after the war.
