Zuko x BodyGuard! Reader
Where reader explains why they have a scar over their heart to the gaang, and what it means to the fire nation.
The fire nation has a tradition. Each royal member has an option to have a body guard, which they are appointed to at the age of seven.
When they have chosen their body guard, the body guard must go through a series of challenges to prove their loyalty to their master.
The last being a brand, made by their master's firebending.
A scar made by their master meant life long commitment, meant unwavering loyalty to the royal member. They must do whatever they say, with no hesitation.
"Wow..." Katara whispers, "that's bittersweet."
You continue.
If the body guard, at any point in their life, requests to be relieved of their duties, they must cut their limb off where their scar lies. Only then can they sever their loyalty.
The gaang looked at each other, "but the scar is over your heart!" Sokka shouts.
Zuko turns his head away, "Because I missed," he says lowly, too embarrassed to look them in the eyes.
The group looks at him in disbelief, and chuckles, "you? A great fire bender? Missing?" Aang smiles. As much as Zuko was a great teacher, Aang couldn't imagine Zuko ever missing a stagnant target.
"I was seven! I was aiming for their arm and I just missed, okay?!"
The group laughs harder, and turn to you. You, who have been tenderly rubbing your scar over your heart, remembering how painful it was to look at seven-year-old Zuko worry for your well-being after his brand.
"Y/N?"
You give a soft smile, "Though this spot is a little inconvenient," you rise, walking over to Zuko. Standing in front of him, you get on one knee, and bow your head and shoulders deeply, "I wouldn't have it any other way. My loyalty, my purpose, and my life is yours, My Prince."
There is a short pause. Zuko, though you've bowed to him plenty of times, thought this one in particular felt more sincere - intimate even. The past few weeks with the gaang, you've allowed yourself to open up more. And he, even though he rightfully knew, saw your more defined personality.
As he worked through his anger, as his days being back at the palace felt more lonely, as his kisses with Mai felt forced, as his yearn for his uncle's forgiveness increased day by day...
You stood beside him through it all, without questioning his thoughts. Your patience for him was unstaggering.
And you continue to demonstrate it now, in front of the very people that distrust him.
His slouch straightened. Zuko clears his throat lightly, "Y/N, raise your head."
You raise your head, wondering what he might do.
He stands up, places one of his fists on the bottom of the other's palm, and bows his head, "I am grateful to have you beside me. Thank you for everything you've done up until now, and everything you will do in the future. I swear to you, I will become a master you will be proud of."

Zuko is such a cool character when you ignore 90% of his fan base.

i think it’s funny that the same people who are lamenting the removal of sokka’s misogyny are the some ones who take away his complexity and completely mischaracterize him just to fit their one-sided shipping

i was today years old when i realized the SUN-flowers in Zuko Alone were a reference to the sun as a source of firebending, serve as metaphor to zuko’s resistance to fire bending in this episode as he slices through them with his sword in the dead of night, and foreshadow zuko eventually teaching aang how to firebend. but like i literally didn’t even notice until today that they had the word sun in them lol

My favourite poly ship, zukki <3 playing with light and colours is so fun, especially since I'm back in school and mostly painting for my art class. Honestly there's only so many still lifes I can draw before going insane. This drawing in particular is inspired by the orange/yellow still life I'm trying to paint (the yellow isn't yellow enough for me) Anyways they're queer and in love. That's all.

honestly oh my gosh !! like he’s a kid please sit down and reconnect with reality.
for real??? i was just looking thru some atla fics on ao3 and i was shocked at how many people are throwing this small innocent child under the bus, demonizing him and making him out to be some horrible person all because they want zuko to be able to swoop in and be katara’s savior??? it’s the reason ive started to hate zutara and zutara shippers so strongly like LEAVE AANG ALONE 2022-FOREVER PLS AND THANK YOU❤️❤️
