A retelling of part of the episode "The Beach," that takes place in an AU with daemons. Zuko and his daemon, Nyracoa, thought he'd be content and she'd finally settle at last after dealing with The Avatar and regaining Ozai's approval. But he isn't, and she hasn't. A nighttime talk around the fire with his sister and her pals will drag out some of the reasons why.

Will & Lyra have entered a parallel world to escape their enemies, and found it an inhospitable place. But they can't leave until they retrieve Æsahættr & the alethiometer, taken by dangerous thieves. Now they must span the strange world to get them back.

Aang and his daemon reflect on the discovery of Zuko's secret, along with a few others to be told. Revision of "The Blue Spirit." No pairings/general, Aang/Zuko friendship. Oneshot, complete. Enjoy!

In Oxford, Jeremy Chen thinks about his vanished father...an eager, inquisitive man who had a bear, but no daemon...a man who spoke fluent Chinese, but was not from China...a man named Kuei who once carried the title of Earth King. Dark Materials X-over.

Azula escapes from the mental facility on Ember Island, and finds a window to another world. She goes through it thoughtlessly, and finds herself in the world we know as Lyra's England, a world of daemons and witches and the all-powerful Magisterium.

I never hid the scar. I wore it as a symbol of shame, of the banished prince... but I never hid from it. I could never hide what my daemon is, either. Or what she isn’t. Avatar/His Dark Materials Xover
