Super Condensed Mini Meme

Finals are next week, and my brain is made out of jelly.  So, the first five people can give me one prompt for any of my existing universes including those developed in previous memes, except Children of Mars and Ice Flows Through and I'll drabble you something.

Mirrorverse: What Are Zuko and Iroh Up To?

For some reason, until now I had completely forgotten about good!Zhao. I know what to do with him now, though. Also evil!Iroh is unnerving to write.


Zuko breathed a thin jet of steam into his hands and curled them together for warmth, gazing out if the windows of his uncle’s stolen ship before stomping over and jabbing the plum blossom tile with his finger and sliding it across the board. “I don’t know why you even tried for the throne if all you want to do all day is play pai sho and drink tea.”

Iroh examined the board and lifted his lily tile. “It is your own fault for stowing away.” The tile clicked into place. “If you want to leave, just let Zhao take you home next time he catches up with us.”

“Shouldn’t you be out trying to find the Avatar?” The horrible queazy feeling he had felt when Uncle had first told him of the plan, and the terrible optimism he had had when he had snuck onto the ship and hid among the barrels of dried noodles and salted cow-pig sloshed around inside him like the tea in his uncle’s cup. He folded his arms and glowered, and didn’t even glance down at the board to see where his uncle had put the tile.

And there was the tiny part of him, lost deep inside that hoped they would have time to search for his mom, and find out wherever his father had forced her to hide.

Uncle’s eyes were hard and cold for only a moment. Zuko had learned not to notice those moments, just like he had learned not to remember why his mother was banished. “I am only seeking my rightful place, Prince Zuko. The oldest son should inherit, don’t you agree?”

The sickness inside got worse when the light from the ice poured into the cabin, and Zuko knew with a dull sort of certainty what that light had to mean.

mirrorverse!Zhao has been engaged in a stern chase with Iroh for the past three years in an attempt to rescue the kidnapped prince Zuko and the stolen navy ship. And yes, Zuko in this verse is even more of a woobie than in the normal one. poor baby.

Oh yes, even if he is a bit too arrogant and prone to gloating. He is just such a babe. Too bad he's at sea.

Some day the universes will meet, and Mirrorverse!Ozai will go incoherent with rage at canonverse!Ozai and try to kill him.

Totally succedd... the power of LuV conquers all.... and they he and Azula will freak Zuko out by hugging him... and Zhao too

canonverse!Zuko has heart failure and starts shooting fire.

Even in this verse, Azula isn't the huggy type. She's as much a woobie as Zuko, being a military genius with an absolutely crazy mother who didn't love her like she did Zuko, even if mommy did burn Zuko's face off (even favorite children need to be punished!) who then has a psychotic break after her two best friends turn out to be sociopaths, playing her for a chump.

I feel horrible, but in the spirit of a mirrorverse, and in my deep wish to see a genuinely awesome character that we know before her mental illness have a psychotic break and come out of it not evil and relatively functional, but not back the way she was and not fully sane.
