Flashback Friday: Half a Phoenix

[redrikki]

It's once again Remix season, so it's appropriate that today's flashback is from my very first ever remix exchange back in 2014. I enjoyed it so much, I've been doing them ever since. I got my assignment for this year's remix earlier this week and there's some great stuff to work with.

Title: Half a Phoenix (The Out of the Past and Into the Future Remix)
Fandom: Avatar: The Last Airbender
Characters: Ozai, Zuko, Zuko's daughter
Length: 1,801 words
Rating: PG
Warning: Mentions past child abuse
Summary: Everyone has a lesson to teach. Ozai and his granddaughter learn a lot from each other.

This was a remix of daymarket 's Out of the Past which is the second part in a four-part  Fireverse series focusing on Zuko's daughter, here called Ursa. She's a deeply cool character and I can not recommend the series enough. Writing the remix, I'd originally planned to tell the story from her POV (the original is from Zuko's), but I quickly figured out that my version needed to be from Ozai's for the ending to really land.
