AUTHOR LINK: [archiveofourown.org profile] psocoptera
RATING/WARNING(S): G | none
WIP?/WORD COUNT: Complete | 3700 words
MAIN CHARACTERS: Zuko, Katara

FIC SUMMARY: The pen is mightier than the sword, or how Zuko saves the day via the power of good penmanship.

RECCER'S NOTES: Short, powerful, beautiful: what Zuko did in the capital after the last Agni Kai. Not many fics can so convincingly add to character backstory; or use the style of AtLA so perfectly, down to the language and tone of its jokes; or add humour to drama without dampening either. This one does. It's a terrific idea, and one of the best Avatar fics it's ever been my pleasure to read.

RATING/WARNING(S): General Audiences
WIP?/WORD COUNT: Complete/2108 words
MAIN CHARACTERS: Iroh, Zuko

FIC SUMMARY: Like fate, the bonds of family are a chancy thing.


RECCER'S NOTES: One of my favorite Iroh-centric fics. How it treats Iroh and fatherhood was well done.
