Summary
Hong Hua’s attention settled immediately on Xie Lian, eyes lingering with a subtle admiration, before quickly diverting to Lang Qianqiu.
“Your Highness,” he greeted, stepping forward and bowing with practiced precision, “I hadn’t expected the honor of your presence today.”
Lang Qianqiu smiled, clearly in high spirits. “We came at the State Preceptor’s suggestion. He thought it best that I observe and demonstrate my current understanding.”
Hong Hua inclined his head again. “Then it is our good fortune to be under the State Preceptor’s guidance today.” His attention settled once more on Xie Lian, a faint warmth touching his expression.
“Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Hong Hua.” He bowed his head, measured but sincere. “I have long heard of the State Preceptor’s skill. If I may be permitted, I would be honored to witness it for myself.”
OR: Hua Cheng finds Xie Lian three hundred years earlier, during his time as Fangxin Guoshi in Yong'an. To get close to Xie Lian, Hua Cheng joins the Yong'an Infantry under the alias of a young solider, Hong Hua, and must gain Lang Qianqiu's trust to become a member of the Imperial Guard, the personal bodyguard of the Crown Prince of Yong'an.

Summary
A dragon cursed to be trapped in human shape by the royal family of Xianle, Xie Lian has already long accepted the reality of his situation by the time he finds himself being pulled out of Ghost City’s harbor. It’s fine, really. After hundreds of years, pretending to be something he isn’t is as easy as breathing.
So why does San Lang, with a pearl in his hair and a dragon-eyed sword on his belt, make it so easy to forget why he was pretending to begin with?

Summary
Under the leadership of Fire Lord Iroh, the Fire Nation has made every attempt to restore peace and make amends for the harm they inflicted during the Seventy-Year War. Their newest proposal is a literal proposal: a marriage to unite the Fire Nation and the Water Tribes.
The Fire Nation offers Prince Zuko’s hand.
The Water Tribes offer Princess Yue’s.
Sokka is apparently the only person in the world who has a problem with any of this.

Summary
Everyone in the world has some sort of affinity with one of the four elements; the proper term is elemental affinity– whether they are best suited with fire, water, earth, or air.
All figure skaters are water users. Never in the history of the sport has there been a professional ice skater that didn't have water as his or her elemental affinity. Katsuki Yuuri has a well-guarded secret that he can't have anyone find out about.
aka, the one where Yuuri can potentially decimate the rink every time he steps on ice, but no one can know. Especially Victor.
