Fire Lilies and Moon

Now finally their turn, Zuko stepped toward the window, squaring his shoulders, making eye contact with the clerk."I'm travelling with my elderly father, and my wife," He slid an entire bag of copper coins towards the clerk. "Can I please have my documents?"The clerk counts the money, nodding to himself. Wordlessly he slides over a blank marriage certificate and forged legal documents. Zuko nods before reaching into the cup on the side and grabbing a pen."Have a nice time in Ba Sing Se." The clerk looks past him, toward the next group of people in the line. "Next!"ORRRR what if Zuko saves Katara after she runs off chasing Aang and gets stranded in the desert. Which leads them to going to Ba Sing Se together (eventually with Iroh), where they pretend to married. Romance blossoms, Uncle Iroh is a great wing man, and there’s LOVE.
