    Summary

    The people say that when you touch steel, its poison seeps into your heart.

    OR: In which Jake Sully is actually a decent person, maybe not the best father but he’s trying his best.
    Or, what I hoped and prayed would happen in the beach scene in Fire and Ash.

    Summary

    The dark blue skin this Na’vi has is certainly not one of the reef people. He quickly glances down at the hand supporting their weight—one, two, three fingers on the sand—and heaves a sigh of relief…

    …only to jerk back when the Na’vi’s head lifts and inclines in his direction.

    Messy medium-sized knotless braids cascade down to their shoulder blades, partially shielding their face while a humanlike set of bunny teeth, with four distinct but blunt canines, grins up shakily at him.

    Lo’ak’s breath gets stuck in his throat.

    It’s been weeks since Neteyam rejoined Eywa’s care. The Sully’s are… coping. In their own ways.

    Dad has closed off his emotions, chasing things to do to keep himself busy; Mum is mourning, processing things the way Eywa intended; Kiri is choosing to celebrate and ignore the sadness, knowing she cannot connect with Neteyam again while they’re with the Metkayina; Tuk has decided she’ll follow Kiri in solidarity, trailing after her and socialising with the clan.

    And himself? Well, he’s decided to take flight.

    …That is, until something (or rather, someone) puts a halt to his plans one day.

    Summary

    “I would slit my throat to see if you mourned me”

    After Neteyam’s death Lo’ak falls back into self destructive habits like SH to cope with the guilt he carries and on the night Payakan is outcast and Kiri and Tsireya find him they tell his parents instead of staying silent. Jake and Neytiri then have to navigate helping their son heal instead of ignoring him in their own grief. Jake battles with the fact that his human DNA is likely the reason his son is suicidal and his guilt increases as he realises what Lo’ak is going through. Luckily through it all Tsireya remains a stable support system for Lo’ak and through the tough period they grow closer and closer.

    TL:DR
    In the movie we got no mention of Lo’ak’s suicide attempt so this fic focuses on the Sully family reaction, specifically Jake and Neytiri and the follow up response.

    Summary

    Te'san pressed his hands to her back under the spray of the waterfall and whispered quietly.
    "Mawey ma Katxe." He murmured in her ear. She pressed her left shoulder into the stone of the mountain more. "Ikran is not like our quiet pa'li. Ikran is more like the pa'li te pay in your stories. You must act quick once chosen Katxe."
    "How will I know he chooses me?" She hissed back at Te'san who smiled sharply at her.
    "He will try to throw you off the cliff." She stared at him slack jawed then, Jake cracking up behind Te'san and the other young hunters. She turned her face to the cliff and took deep breath.
    "Awesome."
    "You can do it. Remember quick tsaheylu and do not die." His hands on her back gave her a push, and she was out in the open, panic filling her for a moment and a moment alone. Her fingers pulled the weighted vine from its rolled-up position on her hip as she started towards the ikran, watching them drop off the cliff or fly away before she can even get too close; and then one didn't. It chided her.
    "Sran! Quickly ma Katxe!" Te'san yells from somewhere behind her.
    "Yeah! Drop his ass Kate!" Jake chimed in.

    Basically Lo’ak gets really, really sick and doesn’t tell anyone. Shock, that’s a bad idea which results in tears, heartfelt words and comfort.

    Summary

    Payakan would be left alone, truly alone. Without the one soul who actually understood him. His spirit brother.

    His sisters would be completely brotherless, with no one to protect while mom and dad were away.

    Tsireya, having yet to fully understand Lo’ak, would mourn a loss she wishes she could’ve prevented. If only she knew how.

    His mother would cry for days, more than she already has been with the loss of her eldest.

    His father… his father would feel guilt. All the guilt Eywa has to offer. He would sit in his sorrows until they consumed him completely.

    But Neteyam.

    He would finally join Neteyam in the spirit world, and that’s worth it in Lo’aks eyes.

     

    Or

    Lo’ak gets shunned, wrongfully blamed, and he truly believes that what happened to Neteyam really was his fault. This leads him to a dark path. A dark and sandy one, more specifically.

    Summary

    Neteyam lives, but the ocean doesn’t give life back without scars. Haunted by the moment he almost didn’t return, he struggles beneath the weight of guilt, expectation, and the silence that follows survival. When sleep won’t come and the tide threatens to pull him under, it’s unexpectedly Ao’nung who stays beside him—loud, stubborn, infuriating… and the only one who refuses to treat him like something fragile.

    Summary

    Lo’ak feels like a disappointment to everyone, especially his father. With his older, more competent brother—Neteyam—dead, there’s even more pressure placed upon his shoulders than before to grow up and prove himself worthy as the eldest son.

    Needless to say, he wasn’t dealing with it well.

    Or: Lo’ak starts to self-harm and his dad has things to say about it.

    Some people call sibling loss ‘the loss of a lifetime’ because who else do we expect to have relationships with that stretch our entire lives.

    OR

    Lo’ak just lost his older brother who he never should have had to learn to live without and it just hurts so fucking much that he can barely breathe.

    Summary

    kiantu—blameworthy person
    ___

    When Lo’ak didn’t respond, Tsireya reached out and cupped his cheek with her hand—and he immediately leaned into her touch, nuzzling his face against her palm. His eyes raised to meet hers, and Jake’s breath hitched at the raw pain swimming in them. Jake quickly averted his gaze, the vulnerability in their shared look causing guilt to stir in his stomach at his eavesdropping. Whatever this conversation was, it was not meant for his ears—or anyone’s, other than theirs.

    “You do not see the way they look at me,” Lo’ak whispered, drawing Jake’s attention back. Lo’ak’s tight features melted away as he continued, “My mom has barely spoken to me since Neteyam died, barely looked at me. And my dad—” his voice broke, and he cleared his throat as if trying to free the words lodged there. “He blames me. And he is right.”

    [or: lo'ak breaks down in the wake of neteyam's death, tsireya is wonderful, and jake overhears and realizes he's made some parenting mistakes]

    What if… What if Neteyam’s wound had not been fatal ? What if Spider was really part of the Sully family ? What if it ended better than in the movie ?

    Overall, a fix-it of « Avatar : the way of water » where nobody dies and everybody is happy.

    Summary

    And all he could think, through the blur of pain and tears, was how badly he wanted his father to find him.

    Lo’ak clawed at the steel again, desperation giving his hands a wild strength. He tried prying the jaws apart with his fingers, then bracing his other foot against the trap to shove it open. Nothing budged. The teeth only bit deeper when he pulled too hard, sending a fresh wave of white-hot pain ripping through his leg.

    *

    After a heated argument drives a wedge between father and son, both Jake and Lo’ak are forced to confront the depth of their bond. What begins as a clash of stubborn wills transforms into a test of trust, love, and survival, as Jake fights to reach his boy in time—and Lo’ak learns just how far his father will go to protect him.
