Summary
An arrow was released.
It would have pierced him through the throat had the elf not slighted the bow down at the last second.
“Forgive me,” the elf murmured, “I thought you were an orc, for your breathing was so ragged.”
“No,” said Aragorn, with his hands raised in some passive form of surrender, “I am but an exhausted man.”
“Aye, I can see that much now.”

Summary
"You should get up now,” Ethari said briskly. “The assassins will soon be awaiting your leadership.”
Runaan studied him for a moment.
Then, softly: “You could at least let me see your face.”
At that, Ethari stood.
“No,” he said. “For I fear that if I look you in the face right now, I will cry, and you deserve more support than that, and I deserve a better morning.”
Or
The morning before the assassins leave to kill King Harrow, Runaan and Ethari argue (in a loving husband type way) then make up (and out).

Summary
"The Dúnedan stared at Legolas with that woefully assertive look.
One of warning; one of unspoken strength.
'Stand down, Legolas.'
The elf’s jaw clenched at the man’s command. Since when did mortals command HIM, Prince of Mirkwood?
Never.
Not in ALL his 2931 YEARS of life.
Not even broad-shouldered, wavy-haired, strong-armed soon-to-be kings!"

Summary
It was a raw, ever-growing ache, the longing that he felt for the beautiful blonde-haired elf.
It came to him strongest at night, usually. When the air was peaceful and still, stars twinkling in the silence, and the ranger was all alone with nothing but himself and his mind.
in which aragorn’s pining all but consumes him.

Summary
“I’m going to go practice some firebending forms,” Zuko says stiffly, running a hand through the tangles in his hair. “Tell Aang to join me if he wants to once he wakes up.” Gold eyes dart up to where Aang had strung up a makeshift hammock and was still sleeping soundly, snoring like a buffalo yak.
“Alright,” Sokka says, watching as he walks out without another word, evidently having reverted back into his usual brooding self. “Have fun!” He calls after Zuko loudly, which he means to be sarcastic, but comes out painfully, embarrassingly sincere. His face burns, and as soon as Zuko passes out of sight into the the temple, Katara turns to him, leveling him with a Look.
“You like him.” She says, and it’s not a question.

Summary
The Avatar has returned 100 years after he vanished, and although rumors claim he's nothing more than a 12-year-old boy who only knows airbending, the Fire Nation has prioritized hunting him down.
In some parallel world, Prince Zuko would be part of that hunt, but in this one, he died at the tender age of 12 when, still recovering from the Agni Kai against his father, he was attacked and killed in his royal chamber. A month later, Lee arrived at Pohuai Fortress, and three years later, the blue spirit helped the Avatar escape from the same fortress.Series
