Avatar: The Last Airbender Darkfic Comment Meme

[attackfish]

So I just finished writing something so impossibly sweet that I swear all my teeth just rotted in my head from it.  And since I have to write floranna's fic for help_haiti  (and her request is full of lovely angst) I need to get myself in a darker writing groove.  To further this goal, I’m watching Criminal Minds, and I’m asking you guys to send me your darkest, most angst producing prompts for Avatar: The Last Airbender.  Comment with up to five, and I’ll guarantee you at least one commentfic.  I’ll probably answer with more, knowing me.  weirdlet  and floranna  get seven requests and a guarantee of two fics, because I spawned a wild AU in weirdlet ’s head, that she has been writing delightfully twisted installments for, and because I delayed writing floranna’s promised fic to work on my novel.

Please no rape or sexually explicit requests.  I’m a big believer that there needs to be more gen darkfic in fandom.

Ganked from avocado_love .


Meme Closed and Finished

Despite the fact that I asked for no requests involving rape or sexually explicit requests, my brain decided to take me there all on its own in two instances.  I've done my best to warn as accurately as I can in both in a way that the warnings themselves are non-triggery.  I'd also like to put up a blanket warning for violence.

Fics:

I get to give more requests? This is the first time! *makes a silly victory dance*

Oh God how I love this fandom...

Firebenders are cannibalists. Zuko centric, please, and preferably at the Western Air Temple the Gaang reacts to this. (Yes, I am a Zuko-whore. ^^ And not ashamed by it!)

Zuko is very, very morally grey. Gaang is terrified/worried about the decisions he does when he has joined them. No qualms of killing, etc. Say if this is too vague.

Zuko hurt his leg on the run and it won't heal. (something like with Severus, something a bit more permanent.) ^^

Ocean spirit dragged Zhao AND Zuko down to the bottom of ocean.

Azula's lightning strike on Zuko has something far more serious consequences on Zuko.

Ozai executed Zuko after he arrived to Fire Nation.

Zuko was never a fire-bender.


...

Well, I am predictable. And easy.

To steal the phrase from floranna's post... Sokka's morally grey side. You know he has it. Lots of cannon evidence. In The Painted Lady, he speaks up pretty loudly about not helping the village. He blows up/knocks out of the sky several airships, each of which contain a huge crew, in the finale. When the Gaang is trying to practice and convince Aang that he has to kill the Firelord, it's Sokka who steps up and effortlessly beheads the dummy when Aang can't. Sokka never trusted Jet because Jet's darkness is just more obvious. Sokka and Zuko bringing out the darkness in each other would be EXTRA awesome.

*cough* I'm a big fan of Sokka, if you can't tell. XD

Instead of forgiving him, Yue's spirit haunts Sokka, subtly ruining his relationship with Suki and generally screwing him over.

Yue gifts Sokka with waterbending when she becomes the moon spirit. Sokka's angry and scared of himself because he doesn't trust bending and can't control it very well.

Suki's just as calmly insane as Azula is. She just hides it better.


...I could go on. And on. And on. Gen darkfic is SO under appreciated. And Criminal Minds is the best. Right after Avatar. XD

Hee.

Hmm....

1. Koh's eggs.

2. Eric Bogle's "And The Band Played Waltzing Matilda" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WG48Ftsr3OI

3. Toph- witnessing what no one wants to see

4. Jet- first time

5. Ozai- what hasn't he done to get Azulon's attention?

6. Zhao. Wedded and bedded.

7. I sometimes imagine Jet's hiding a set of stripes under his shirt- how'd he come to experience such a flogging?

Zhao destroying part of Wan Shi Tong's library

What Chit Sang did to end up in the Boiling Rock

Why Yon Rha hates his mother so much

[avocado-love.livejournal.com]

YEA! :D

Let's see... let's see...

Why exactly do those turtle-ducks fear Azula so much?

Lao Bei Fong will do anything to keep his daughter safe, even from herself.

Zuko - Directly after the Agni Kai

Sokka - In canon, Smellerbee and Pipsqueak were really going to kill him at that 'long walk'. What would have happened to Katara and Aang if they succeeded?

(This may not be a dark!fic prompt, but I thought I would try anyway.) Sokka is supposed to be the next chief of the SWT. Suki can't give up her position of leader as a Kyoshi Warrior, and one day it will come to a head.

Oh, I love me some angst.

1) We are the hollow men. (http://poetry.poetryx.com/poems/784/)

2) The avatar spirit becomes human to learn compassion, what does this mean about all the other spirits?

3) Inspired by one of your other drabbles. Ty Lee is an Airbender, now make it dark.

4) At the North Pole, some goes wrong with Koizilla, and Aang isn't able to defuse. And thus did the Fire Nation sink beneath the waves.

5) The world grumbles that Aang is to forgiving, to pacifistic. They are fools, imagine if her wasn't forgiving. The Fire Nation may be the first, it would not be the last.

Aang dies in Ba Sing Se, and the planet slowly whethers and dies with him. The enviroment's dead by Sozin's Comet, with only Firebenders left alive.

Hello. I realize I'm popping out of nowhere here... but I've a request and a uh... well a request.

1: The story of Iroah's son's death.

And also, can you recommend me any other good Avatar Dark Fic?
