#i've had the whole outline written out since before taob book 1 was finished lol

[hella1975]

Wait--you have other ATLA WIP. What about? *puppy dog eyes*

i have three (3) current atla wips separate to taob lmao

1) A yueki one shot. post-war setting. Yue was a waterbender and had her bending taken from her instead of her life that day, but it has left her feeling vulnerable as well as leaving her extremely coddled by her now paranoid dad after she came so close to death. His solution? To call in a group of warriors renowned throughout the four nations and with Fire Lord Iroh’s personal recommendation on their belts. Dark academia sapphics - lots of poetry and midnight kisses in the back of the library. Should be 10k-20k words when finished 

2) The To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before zukka AU. Modern setting. Follows the plot of the movie but the set up is very different (zukka’s reasons for fake dating being the main divergence). Next to no angst in this one. My current comfort fic that i write whenever taob is being itself. Multi-chap. Should be 60k-80k words when finished

3) Current title: The Kids Who Imagined Infernos. As someone who usually titles at the very last minute, it’s weird that i’ve already got a title even if it just does wind up being a placeholder. This little explanation is gonna be longer than the others because the set up is weird for this one, so just bare with me and trust it won’t be as clunky in the actual fic (i hope):

Ursa takes Azula and Zuko with her on the night she kills Azulon, and they live their life on the run, leaving fake identities and lies in their wake and causing some very niche trauma in the process. To cope, Zuko tells Azula stories, specifically of the past Avatars. She becomes an Avatar Nerd in the same way Zuko is a Theatre Nerd, so together, they’re insufferable. Zuko winds up getting caught by Ozai’s men a few years later and their paths diverge. Zuko has to lie through his teeth and - inspired by the stories he told Azula - tells Ozai that there is rumour that the Avatar has returned, and that if Ozai lets him go, he’ll bring him to him. The Avatar is a far better prize than Ursa and Azula, after all. And hey, if Iroh goes with Zuko to supervise because he’s spent these past few years fooling Ozai into thinking he’s loyal, leading to season 1 of canon fitting in with this AU in regards to Zuko’s Avatar hunting shenanigans, then that’s my business. And if Azula becomes hellbent on finding the Avatar because she’s grown to hero-worship him and if the Avatar can’t reunite her with her brother then no one can, and if it leads to her joining the gaang and them all meeting up in a very corrupt Ba Sing Se, then that’s still my business. Sokka goes out and, angered by the corruption of the Ba Sing Se government, accidentally on purpose starts a riot. Zuko goes out and accidentally (no really this time) makes himself into a vigilante symbol. And hey, Sokka has been stuck with the younger kids this whole time. The closest he’s come to someone his age is the stories Azula tells him of her super-cool big brother who Sokka is itching to meet. So when he bumps into the mysterious, scarred boy his age while they both run from the Dai Li, can you blame him if he initiates a tentative friendship? Can you blame Zuko if, after years of being a nameless ghost, an ever-changing identity, he craves to finally be known? Includes Blue Spirit Zuko, bad public speaker Sokka keeps putting himself in positions of public speaking, Ursa being an average parent (at least she’s trying this time?), Ozai needing to honestly choke, andddddddd idiots to vigilantes to lovers. Multi-chap. Should be around 100k+ words.
