Hi, can you recommend fics set in Modern AU?Please
Hi! I donât read many modern AU fics so I only have a few. Luckily, our contributor @owl-freek-123 loves modern AUs and has quite a few personal recs! The star indicates an all time favorite â
show me things i cannot see (shine a little light on my soul) - explicit, oneshot -Â When they were kids, Zuko and Katara didnât get along that well; now Kataraâs back from college, and both of them have a vested and petty interest in showing off the person theyâve managed to become. So when Sokka throws a wild party one night, Zuko and Katara decide to get reacquaintedâand this time they get along swimmingly. ~ Kataraâs rehearsed this, and she never flubs a performance; so she stands her ground, remaining stock still even as adrenaline courses through her veins and throbs deep in her core. The weed is making everything seem vivid and fascinating, so she canât stop herself from taking in all the details: the perfectly tailored fit of his jeans, the strategically faded Airborne Toxic Event t-shirt thatâs been French tucked oh-so-casually into his waistband, the whimsically striped socks, and the fashionably shaggy hair that falls into his eyes just so, softening the sharper angles of his face. Their gazes meet, and she swallows; his eyes are still as intense as ever, but somehow even more unnerving. A burst of furious envy erupts inside her. How dare you get this hot, Katara thinks. How utterly fucking dare you.
Twist Me to the Left - T Rating, 29 chapters -Â So here Zuko is, with no family, no band, and no more record contract. Just another punker with a guitar who thinks he's got what it takes. Then he meets Avatar, the band breaking all the rules. They've got everything going for them, the rising star, and they're everything Zuko isn't. But maybe, just maybe, they want a new guitarist. As long as the pretty keyboardist with the blue eyes doesn't murder Zuko first.
Office Affair - M Rating, 34 chapters -Â Zuko Azulon, a 23 year old bachelor of a million dollar company finds himself in a difficult position. His number one rule, 'Dont date employees'. Will that mean anything to him when he interviews Katara South for his secretary. A 21 year old college student whose family runs the well known three star restaurant Shining South. What problems will the two face when they meet?
To Shatter in Seconds - T Rating, 22 chapters -Â It's not about who gets there first, it's about who gets there last." She was a fifteen almost sixteen year old going to be in a sea of seventeen almost eighteen year olds. It was a scary place. Modern AU. Zutara. Image is not mine.
âThe Island that Cleanses - M Rating, 7 chapters -Â After being dumped on her birthday, Katara tags along on her brother's job to Ember Island. Things start off badly when Sokka's boss, the abdicated Fire Lord Iroh's over-worked nephew thinks he isn't good enough for the job, causing Katara to defend Sokka, leading into an argument in the middle of their very first meeting on that special, little island.
College Daze - T Rating, 15 chapters - Katara and Zuko both attend Ba Sing Se University and are forced to be partners on a class project, working together for the grade. But what happens when they get to know each other? [Blutara, Zutara, Jetara]
Modern Love - T Rating, WIP -Â High school should be the best time of Katara's life -- her brother certainly feels that way -- but after being ostracized by her popular friends, things aren't looking so good for her junior year. On the other hand, Zuko already hates high school and is just counting down the days until he can get out. In order to make this anything other than the worst year on record, they'll have to contend with malicious siblings, overenthusiastic jocks, the worst friends imaginable, and, most insurmountably ... each other.
And here are my measly 2 recs lol. Modern AUs with a hint of murder and soulmates.
Face in the Crowd - T Rating, 11 chapters -Â A serial killer obsessed with folklore has resurfaced in Republic City, after 15 years. He has chosen his latest victim. Detective Zuko Kaji is assigned to the case. Can he catch the killer before another life is lost?
We Could Be Forever - T Rating, one shot -Â Thatâs her soulmate. She takes a deep breath and smiles because she remembers how heâd look at her in the morning when theyâd wake up. She walks up to them and is about to say something when a new memory hits her. He wonât remember her. Last time he had to convince her that they were meant for each other and he did a terrible job. Soulmates AU
That's exactly what I need rn
Thank you so much for these â€ïž
