Suddenly living on a ship and visiting foreign ports had been a cultural shock, but it had hurt, returning to the Fire Nation and feeling that same shock. Once-familiar things had soured and turned strange in the years he was gone.
He sees the surprise of his crew—a new, temporary crew—when he talks about the ship like he knows it intimately, when he greets them in the halls, when he corrects the Captain about how the wind will affect their trajectory. He does it all with an even temper, too. He knows he came close to mutiny more than once when he was banished. He has so much more power, now; he can't be that kind of tyrant again.
The years he spent in exile trained him how to be Fire Lord, in a way. The experience he gained shaped him into a leader, more than any lessons about etiquette and tradition ever could. Banishing him was the best thing Ozai ever did. Zuko, learning to be Fire Lord and leading the Fire Nation into peace. Oh my heart.

Boy Wonders! <333 Lovely series where all the Batboys bond and save each other and bring Jason back into the fold. I wish Cass and Steph had been involved too, but otherwise, I enjoyed these 3 stories a lot.

Gilmore Girls
The Best of It bydollsome
Paris outs herself and Rory during a televised argument with Michele Bachmann. Peskiest of all is the fact that Paris and Rory aren't actually dating. A documentary crew wants to make Paris And Rory's Modern Stars Hollow Family anyway. Meanwhile, Rory goes slowly and quietly nuts. (And doesn't like Paris like that -- why would you even suggest such a thing?? Not that ... anyone did.) Long, hilarious, finally finished Paris/Rory fake dating featuring reality TV meeting Stars Hollow.

Ocean's 8
the great escape byradialarch
Lou's shrugging out of the top of the jumpsuit now, letting it slide away from her like water. Debbie lets her eyes follow the motion, obvious, and flicker back up to Lou's face. Her hands are itching with the same instinct to touch that surges up in museums, at beautiful things. Lou would've made a lovely statue, she thinks, idle, sprawled languidly out in the sun as some artist's muse. And then Debbie would've had to steal her, too. Very hot post-heist reunion sex.
