Summary
Zuko and Aang conspired early to keep the Firelord’s identity as the Blue Spirit a secret. Zuko unmasked would only make his spot on the Dragon Throne more tenuous during a time of upheaval in the post-war Fire Nation.
Nevertheless, the post-war academics are on it. Who was the Blue Spirit?
Aang and Zuko try their best to play it cool.
Aang’s pretty successful…
Zuko? Well, he’s trying his best.

Or where two-thirds of the story is historical “articles” set in and referencing the world of Avatar and one third is Zuko (and Aang) navigating a world where there are academic papers speculating about the prison breakout they did together.- Language:

Summary
Zuko doesn’t have time to deal with pressure for an arranged marriage, especially since he isn’t even sure he likes women that way. (A realisation that has absolutely nothing to do with Ambassador Sokka - shut up, Suki.) Katara and Aang have broken up again, and the Northern Water Tribe are pushing for a match between the North and South.
Which leads Zuko and Katara to develop a genius, foolproof, only slightly drunken plan: they can pretend to date for the length of Katara’s stay in the palace, giving them both a brief reprieve from political pressures on their love lives.
What could go wrong?

Summary
It’s Ford’s second unexpected reunion in as many days. Funnily enough, his reaction to this one is the exact same as it was to the first. He swings a punch directly at Rick’s face.
Stanley never saw it coming. But Rick, Rick’s always on his guard, and he ducks the punch like an old pro. He grabs Ford’s wrist as he goes, using the momentum to spin himself in so that his back slots against Ford’s chest and he can yank Ford’s arm down around his waist like they’re posing for a prom picture.
“H-hey there, Fordy,” he purrs. “Did ya miss me?”
OR: the one where Rick and Ford had a fling in the nightmare dimension.

Summary
“Anyway, I called to let you know that—that is to say, I’m gettin’ married.”
The tapping of Ford’s foot comes to a stop.
It feels like the rest of the world should stop, too, then. He even sits there, perfectly still and with bated breath, giving Gravity Falls a picture-perfect opportunity to unshackle any of its regular irregularity. Any moment now, some supernatural being could intercept their call, or the laws of physics would be inexplicably broken, or maybe some gargantuan, never before seen beast would just barge through the cabin wall in a homicidal rampage, and Ford would welcome it all with open arms.
But the clock keeps ticking, the crickets keep chirping, and the world keeps spinning. It’s only him and his heart that’d stopped.
(Or: Fiddleford chose Ford to be the best man at his wedding. Neither one of them are particularly happy to be there.)
