    Summary

    Zuko is barely 16 when he learns about the disease, nearly 17 when he finds his gaze catching on a certain Water Tribe warrior, and just past 18 when he wakes up to a scattering of tiny glacier blue petals on his red silk pillow.

    OR: hanahaki, babey!

    Zuko, Sokka, and Iroh are all so vivid here, and the hanahaki fits so seamlessly into the world ❤️

    Archie/Maxie chronic hanahaki. Gorgeously loving and longing. I'm holding this fic in my teeth like a wild animal.

    Summary

    I've been alone with you inside my mind
    And in my dreams I've kissed your lips a thousand times
    I sometimes see you pass outside my door
    Hello, is it me you're looking for?

    Just another fic where I explore the obvious, overdone, yet satisfying angle of an old man thinking he's past it, and a young dragon tamer pursuing him anyway.

    Gorgeous, gorgeous. The characterization and banter in this one is absolutely top-notch. I'm holding this Kabu up especially. Look at this beautiful old man, this silver fox. I'm obsessed.
