Summary
Katara and Zuko's mission on board The Southern Raiders goes badly wrong, and they are captured and imprisoned in the unforgiving hull of the ship.
Katara now finds herself locked in a small room with a boy that she refuses to trust, and nine years worth of trauma and guilt swimming in her mind. She is resolute in her hostility towards Zuko, but as the horrors of their captivity unfold, an undeniable bond is formed in the quiet moments between their captor's torments.
When they find themselves safely back with their friends on Ember Island, they are both sporting deep scars – old and new, seen and unseen. Katara struggles to reconcile all the pieces of herself and figure out who she truly is. And Zuko continues to battle with his past guilt, and the new guilt that arises from his growing feelings towards Katara.
As their bond deepens – it may be the lifeline they both so desperately need to pull them from the dark waters of their past.

Summary
Recovery isn’t linear.
It’s something Zuko tries to remind himself of on his tough days, and even on his good ones.
Still, even though there are deep dips and steep spikes, the line is overall positively sloped, and that has to count for something.
OR:
Zuko has no idea what love feels like.
He’s worried that he can’t identify it.
Because he thinks he’s in love with Katara, and he has no idea how to give something he never received.
(Sequel of a sorts to my Before I Disappear Fic, read that first!!)

Summary
Katara and the banished Fire Prince come to an unorthodox arrangement after unexpectedly reuniting in the Lower Ring of Ba Sing Se, some months after the Siege of the North.

A continuation of sorts to i've got some damn bad intentions which takes place in an alternate timeline when Aang was frozen at 16 and everyone's aged up by four years, so Katara and Zuko are 18 and 20, respectively.
Written for Zutara Smut Week 2021.

Summary
As enterprising CEO of Caldera Industries, Zuko is aggressively expanding development into the land outside of Ba Sing Se, but with a constant thorn in his side: Katara, a climate activist whose protests have been slowing the project down.
By all appearances, Zuko and Katara are bitter enemies, and while they don’t see eye to eye on saving the planet, their animosity makes for high passion when they’re alone.
