Sun Child AU Index Post
Dec. 13th, 2009 12:53 amThis can also be the place for new prompts. So! The Premise: Given as a meme prompt by Floranna, it is as follows- Princess (yes, princess) Zuko was pregnant at the time of her banishment, and children out of wedlock being rather a big deal in the Fire Nation, it may have had a lot to do with it. Now she seeks the Avatar as the path to redemption for herself, and her daughter.
Cut for list of fics/ficbits-
The One That Started It All- Introduction of AU and Zura's daughter, Lan Min, at the very start of the series.

Prompts that I intend but have not yet filled in this AU:
"Lan Min creating havoc and mischief at western
Lan Min and Toph and/or Duke bond.
Ursa meets Lan Min.Zhao and Zura's...interactions. At any time you want, but Zhao being Zhao and Zura exploding are very much wanted. ^^The happening's at Lee's village, how did those go? Where was Lan Min when Zura's ship exploded?And what happened to her in AvatarState." (Prompt of my own-) Crack: in order to get into the last known whereabouts of one of the Avatar's companions, Zura has to disguise herself- as a girl. A girly girl. Who can dance.
From Attackfish-Where was Lan Min during the invasion of the NWT?
Where was she during the three way battle at the end of "The Chase"?
What do they do with her during the Boiling Rock trip? Or in other words, how much Hell does Katara give Zura when she gets back? Same for the Sun Warriors trip, and the Southern Raiders trip.
How does the S1 Fire Temple escapade go?
The Blue Spirit.Jet stalks our favorite firebenders. (Partway!)
Where is Lan Min during "The Crossroads of Destiny?"
From Permeteform-
Lan Min and Zura's scar, perhaps tied into the almost!healing that Katara did right before Zura joins back up with Azula for the Book of Earth finale.
Sokka making faces at the Lan Min.omg, for that matter, that whole conversation on the balloon on the way to Boiling Rock about their girlfriends. That...could get interesting/awkward in this verse. OR HILARIOUS.
From Floranna-Iroh and/or Jee are baby-sitting Lan Min when mommy is away. Hilarity ensues. At what time, your choice but I would really love some Jee-Lan Min interaction.
And as always- suggestions for an overarching name are welcome!
Edit- on ff.net, I've titled this collection as Sun Child. It's still more of a placeholder, though.
I advocate calling it "Biting Back" after the mama turtleduck.
