Summary
It was just as well, then; the South Pole was a lonely place, and his quest fell on him and him alone. It seemed only right that the last part of his journey would be the hardest, but he was so close. Just a few more miles, just a few more nights, just a single horrifying task to accomplish, and then he could finally go home again.
Bring me the heart of the last waterbender. The tallest order imaginable, and yet he would do it. He would do anything, if it meant restoring his honour and setting things back to the way they used to be.
~
When a mission to the South Pole goes awry, Prince Zuko awakens in the home of a healer named Katara and finds his heart is damaged and his bending has vanished. His quest to find the last waterbender of the Southern Water Tribe is his destiny-- the one chance to regain his honour and return home. But as time passes and Zuko's heart heals, it becomes clear that Katara is protecting an ancient secret of her own, and that both of their destinies are entwined in ways never before thought possible.Bookmarked by ohawkins

Summary
Katara’s people have always had the good sense to steer clear of the Forest: the haunted, misty place known to be a liminal space between the human and spirit worlds. However, during a cruel and merciless winter, her father goes missing when he ventures into its depths to find food for their village. Refusing to believe he is dead, Katara dons an old disguise and sets out to find him, only to discover that he is a prisoner of the angry, vengeful Blue Spirit.

Summary
Katara and Zuko have a brief and disastrous affair the summer after she breaks up with Aang. Six years later, just when Zuko is starting to feel like he’s recovered, a new revelation turns his entire world on its head.
***
“Is that,” he swallows, “what you’d written to me about?”“Yes,” she says, her voice sounding just as broken.
He sits down on the little stool made of snow, buries his face in his hands, and sobs.

Summary
Something unknown and unspoken is entombed underneath it all. It’s calling to her, daring her to burrow deeper, enticing her with the temptation to unbury something well-hidden and deeply felt. And Zuko has long been such an enigma, such a beacon in her life that Katara dares, just for one moment, to reach out and touch that unknown emotion, brushing the edges of it with her subconscious.
____
The night after the final Agni Kai sends out shockwaves that ripple into the future and demolish several idealized views of destiny.

Summary
AU - Eowyn is sent to Ithilien by her brother to get her away from Edoras and Wormtongue. Promped by Sian making an off-hand remark about Rangers in tight spaces, then adding that this was just what she wanted to take her mind off her migraine. So here it is, something to take Sian's mind off her migraine.
The AU-ness is totally gratuitous and simply there to make the plot bunny work! Now with added plot! A multi chapter epic of smut, angst (viewed with a certain detachment), gambling and the odd battle, taking us all the way through to the Houses of Healing.
At long last - it's finally finished... Sniff... I feel sad now.

Summary
"When I first looked on her and perceived her unhappiness, it seemed to me that I saw a white flower standing straight and proud, shapely as a lily, and yet knew that it was hard, as if wrought by elf-wrights out of steel. Or was it, maybe, a frost that had turned its sap to ice, and so it stood, bitter-sweet, still fair to see, but stricken, soon to fall and die? " (Return of the King : The Houses of Healing).
Eowyn and Faramir's meeting and courtship in the Houses of Healing, and their relationship up to their marriage and arrival in Ithilien. Starts mainly bookverse, with occasional movie-verse references, then goes off into the post-war world. Now complete.

Summary
“Would you calm down?” says Toph, clearly enjoying herself. She leans on Katara’s arm to clear a crack in the sidewalk. “It’s some cousin’s wedding. I told my mother I wouldn’t go unless I could invite some friends, and she agreed on the condition that you all have dates, so none of you try to sleep with someone at the wedding.”
Katara has a hard time formulating a response to this. Her brain takes this moment to point out that Zuko’s steps are in sync with hers, which is, frankly, so embarrassing a thing to notice that she can’t do anything but stare at their feet for a few seconds. “Why,” she finally croaks, “would your mother automatically assume we’re trying to sleep with people at the wedding?”
