    Summary

    “We’re in the middle of the desert, waterbender. So you might have that barrel, but once it’s gone, what do you have?” Zuko moved forward, into her personal space. She was shorter than him, and he was using his height deliberately to glare down at her, but Katara didn’t back down. He could feel the sun soaking into him – his power was strongest while she was at her weakest, and for a moment he wished she would start something so that he could beat her in a fight. “I can make fire anywhere, and you might get one shot in, but then I am going to make you burn.”

    The moment dragged out.

    They were glaring.

    Still glaring.

    This was the point where the girl would usually be flying away on a bison and he’d be covered in perfume or something.
    Something shifted in her expression, and Zuko started fully processing what he had just said, and how it could perhaps have been phrased a little—

    Her voice was completely flat. “Make. Me. Burn.” Her mouth tugged, started widening into a sly smile.

    His stomach dropped. Oh no. “I meant it like—“

    ***

    OR:

    A good tip about a mountain pass leads Zuko and Iroh to Misty Palms Oasis a week early, and they run straight into some old enemies.

    The perfect zutara

    Summary

    For a second, Katara is helpless. No bending, no running, not when she’s trying to pull air into her lungs, feeling the world spin nauseatingly around her.

    That’s all Zuko needs.

    He pins her with a truly insulting ease, grabbing her wrists to hold both down, and she is well and truly caught. She glares up at him – he is soaked from the water she has been throwing at him, but his golden eyes are glaring right back at her, and there’s that sneering curl to his lip that makes her want to dump half the ocean on his head.

    He leans down and she can feel the heat of his breath in her ear.

    “Leaving so soon?” he hisses.

    ***

    OR: Zuko captures Katara, and imprisons her on his ship to use as bait to try to capture Aang.

    No plan truly survives contact with the enemy. And this plan… goes absolutely sideways.

    Summary

    1986 really was Eddie Munson's year. He graduated. Moved to Chicago. Corroded Coffin started to gain a following. He made new friends and got a cool new job.

    Everything was great.

    Now if he could just survive until 1987, things would be perfect.

    Except Eddie!
