    Even the Dragon-King's temple floods.

    Summary

    Crown Prince, banished, captain of this vessel this-very-much-Fire-Nation-vessel on a hunt for the Avatar—a child—the Fire Nation’s greatest threat.

    A threat, that Zuko had freed. Zuko hadn’t meant to, but like most things in his life that didn’t really matter. Because he still did. He had rescued the Avatar and maybe his friends…and a little Earth Kingdom girl. It just sort of happened.

    Now Zuko, is kind of friends with the Avatar, may have started a religion, and could possibly be dead and a spirit-the Blue Spirit. Well if he is, then may as well do his best because you Never Give Up Without A Fight.

    Summary

    “Gajeel,” he concludes. “The hell are you doing here?”

    “Drinking.” He gives a little tip of his glass to Laxus as if he might have missed the obvious, then kicks the adjacent bar stool. “Seat’s open if you wanna join me.”

    Laxus eyes the offending stool coolly. “...Right. And do ya come here often, hon’?” he drawls acerbically.

    By all rights, he should focus on handling this situation carefully, but the reality of Laxus pitching him a classic pick-up line amuses him thoroughly. It is simply too enticing to give him shit for it. “Ha, wouldn’t you like that, as pretty as I am?” Fluttering his lashes, he glances down at the stool then back up at Laxus, who gives up on glaring. Victory.

    Despite that they transpire entirely unbeknownst to all their guildmates, both Gajeel’s infiltration of Raven Tail and Laxus’s months of expulsion have an overlap.
