Summary
A realization that’s been lapping at the edges of Sokka’s mind all night finally crashes over him in a wave. “You really hate yourself,” he says slowly, as the cold understanding sinks in.
Zuko’s glare could melt glaciers. “You wouldn’t, if you’d done all the things I’ve done?” he says, which would be fair, except — it’s not just about the things Zuko’s done, is it? It’s also about the things he hasn’t. Zuko hates himself for things that are his fault, and things that aren’t. For who he is, and who he hasn’t managed to be.
And Sokka can see, with sudden, sharp clarity, that if he were to plot the strength of Zuko’s self-hatred alongside the strength of his bending over time, the two lines would hug in almost perfect sync. Which leaves Sokka with only one question: whether someone’s self-loathing could run so deep and unrelenting that it sustains their bending for the better part of a decade.
The night before going in search of Sun Warrior ruins, Zuko starts to doubt that hatred is the source of his bending after all. Sokka helps him figure out what it really is.

Summary
Fire Prince Zuko is meditating with his eyes closed on the floor of the Western Air Temple, and no one is attacking him, or even trying to, and it’s weird. Sokka will admit that even if no one else will.
Or,
Sokka makes some discoveries after Zuko joins the Gaang. Perhaps the Fire Prince has more honor than anyone had realized.

Summary
The house on Ember Island is as beautiful as Zuko remembers from his childhood, and as decrepit as he remembers from his last visit.
"You're sure no one has been here?" Suki asks, testing the porch steps with one foot before climbing up hesitantly. "It looks like somebody broke in."
Zuko cringes. The door is still hanging slightly ajar; he hadn't realised he'd kicked it that hard, but they might have to fix the hinges on top of all the other maintenance the house needs. "I guess I didn't mean nobody. My—me, Azula, Mai, and Ty Lee were all forced on vacation so the adults could discuss their horrible plans for the world in private. We didn't stay at this house, but I came here one night to think."
"And…kicked the door open?"
"It was locked," Zuko says.
or: four times that the gaang understands zuko, and one time that they don't.

Summary
Sokka finds out that Zuko’s life-threatening, Sozin-comet-powered, crazy-blue-fire-prodigy-inflicted lightning wound didn’t scar.
And Sokka’s got questions about that.
Because if that didn’t scar, how in Koh’s lair did he get the one on his face?
Or: The one in which there are uncomfortable conversations, dramatic life-threatening events, and undiscovered traumatic depths to be plumbed on a weekend beach vacation. As is the ATLA norm.
