Summary
“Here." Scarlet took Wolf's right hand in hers and pried his curled fingers open. “Hold the stick for me.” She eased the branch she’d skewered the bird with into his palm. When he neglected to grip it, she cupped her hand over his, gently closing his fingers for him. Wolf twitched. His knee began bouncing, that nervous habit of his.
“I’ll burn it,” he muttered.
“You won’t.” Scarlet lay her hand on his knee to still it. It had become a frequent gesture at this point in their journey. Something she did with easy familiarity ... with affection. “I trust you.”
As soon as she spoke the words, Scarlet felt something shift. Something slice through the air, creating an instant chasm between them. For one brief second, she was able to feel the tensing of Wolf’s muscles under her hand—and then he pulled away.
Dropping the stick, he retreated rapidly to the other side of the campfire. He sat back down, drawing his knees up to his chest. Although he wouldn’t meet her gaze, she could tell that his eyes were dark and brooding.
When finally he spoke again, his voice was quiet ... yet oddly harsh.
“You shouldn’t.”

Summary
He wasn’t dumb or blind. No Pogue on Pogue macking was meant for him, and he didn’t need her to spell that out for him. Code for no JJ on Kie macking, because obviously, he was a dumbass with “I have a thing for you” tattooed on his forehead. And for good reason, she didn’t want him.
He couldn’t blame her.

Okay, okay, listen. It's not Kie's fault that she doesn’t know how to fight.
(aka Kie makes JJ and Pope teach her how to fight + more feelings than anyone knows what to do with)

Summary
And he wasn’t the only one that had done some growing up. Her shine had clung to him always, and he watched with that same third grader’s stomach flipping as she changed over the years, scared she’d change in a direction away from him.
But she never did. And he never did either.

Summary
JJ Maybank is not the caretaker of the group.
He’s loud, he’s brash, he’s reckless and cares far too little about his own safety and wellbeing. Everyone knows it. No one comes to him for soft words or reassuring hugs. And yet, he can’t seem to stop himself from looking out for Kiara.
Or, 5 times JJ took care of Kiara and one time she took care of him.

Summary
"My fucking shirt is wet." It's all she can focus on to stop from completely losing her calm so she says it and doesn't realize he's pulling off his own sweater and handing it to her until it's in her hands, in her shaking hands, and the warmth from the material brings her back a little. She squeezes it, feels the softness against her fingertips before finally lifting her head to his."
or 5 times where JJ gives his sweater to Kiara and the 1 time she takes it.

Summary
We must be ill, she thinks, because it can’t feel this way. It is too much and still, she’s greedy, she wants more, she wants everything.
People go insane like this, countries lose wars, careers get ended. If it’s wrong, she doesn’t want to be right, and the thought is so incredibly clichéd, only now she gets what it is people are always singing about. She finally gets the poems on their fridge. The colors of her nightmares are no longer the brightest thing she sees.

Summary
Thirty years ago, the Fire Nation attacked, throwing the world off balance. Katara entered the Fire Nation war camp at Ba Sing Se as a healer, prepared to do whatever it takes to play her part in stopping the war. Getting kidnapped with the Fire Prince and falling in love with him were not parts of the plan.
AU. Zutara.
This is the Zutara story I have always wanted to read but never found it anywhere. So I decided to write it myself.
