    Summary

    And here’s the thing. If Buck was paying just a little more attention, he probably would’ve clocked what the pain in his middle meant a lot sooner. It wouldn’t change the outcome, sure, but he’d at least be ahead of the curve.

    The worst part is that it’s all rather obvious in retrospect, because the signs are all there. The flickering lights. The gymnasium air rippling and warping like heat off pavement. The dark patches on everyone’s suits and dresses.

    He should’ve seen it.

    But all he sees is Eddie. Everything else is just white noise and set dressing.

    Or: Buck's never been to prom.

    Summary

    Nureyev has a very complicated relationship with locked doors that boils down to one rule: if it locks, he and Juno need to be on the same side of it. Unfortunately, the world doesn't revolve around said rule. When a heist gone wrong makes that abundantly clear, the mask of Peter Ransom cracks just a little more.

    in which a confused but supportive Buddy Aurinko helps Nureyev unpack a few of his many filing cabinets.

    Zuko dons the mantle of the Blue Spirit again only to lose his focus when the Avatar comes to the city. This time, however, his attention is drawn to the annoying Southern Tribe warrior.
