Kindle the Wind (The Avatar! Zuko 'verse) commentfic meme

[attackfish]

That's it, folks, I can't take it.  In the hopes that maybe writing some of what I want to write will get me unblocked on the fic I'm trying to write, I'm giving in and running a commentfic meme for my Avatar!Zuko verse.  Comment with up to five requests, and I’ll guarantee you at least one commentfic.  I’ll probably answer with more, knowing me.  weirdlet , fanficforensics, beboots, and floranna  get seven requests and a guarantee of two fics, because beboots  and floranna  are the best betas ever, and weirdlet and fanficforensics just because.


Also, the 'verse has a title now, Kindle the Wind!


Air, Water, Earth, Fire.

Long ago, the four nations lived together in harmony. Then, everything changed when the Fire Nation attacked. Only the Avatar, master of all four elements, could stop them, but when the world needed him most, he vanished.

A hundred years passed and the new Avatar crashed into the ice sheet that borders our village. Although he is the Fire Nation prince, and it's his family and his nation that have brought this war to the world, I have hope that inside Zuko lies the spark of greatness. In the end, he has to save the world.

:D Poor Jee, it never ends. Why did Zuko get drunk here in the first place? Jee should have gotten drunk along with him. To celebrate his promotion.

Kyoshi, you letch. Sounds like the past lives will enjoy this new amusing Avatar.

Part of the reason this is non-canon was that I just couldn't figure out a good reason for Zuko to be drunk. Maybe it's his daughter's second birthday, and he's stuck at sea and convincing himself that he's a terribe father?

That's actually Kyoshi's utterly failed attempt at being maternal. She's 230. To her, everybody under 40 looks like a baby. If I could figure out how to fit it in, Kyoshi trying to mother someone and being mistaken for coming onto them would be a running joke.

I think Zuko has plenty of reasons to be drunk, he just needs someone who'll make him drink ;) Bad idea, Jee.

Maternal Kyoshi... No. Not really.

Yes, he isn't usually the sort who takes the initiative with that sort of thing.

Well it's possible. We know she had a daughter.
