Mini-Meme: Ozai Edition!
Because I love writing Ozai way too much.
Any Ozai requests. Pick a pairing, an AU, a random crack-induced scenario, whatever, and I'll write it. One request per person, unless you're a) dark_puck, or b) one of my chatpost buddies, in which case you get three.

2) It has been a year since the war ended; a year since Ozai had a portion of his soul ripped out.
3) Ozai/Ursa; how Zuko was conceived

The young woman bit her lip and gently pulled his head in her lap, fingers working through the tangles in his hair. She needed a brush or a comb, something better than fingers. If someone would just come, she could ask-
But no one was going to come. Today was the first anniversary of War's End, and everyone was out celebrating. Even if it wasn't as loud and boisterous as other Fire celebrations, there was food and drink and merriment for allWho, in that, would care about the Firelord's fallen father ( ... )

Poor Ozai. Poor Tian. It's just so plain that Ozai is hurting and not really there, and that Tian is doing her best to help him work through it -- especially since nobody else will.
Ozai going so cold is a nice touch, given that he's lost his fire and possibly relived the moment Aang took away his bending, part of his soul. It also marks the difference between him and Tian, after a fashion -- him so cold and her so warm.
Extra wibbly is the calls for Ursa and Tian's lie that she's coming soon, and Ozai trying to start a fire but the bending just isn't there anymore.

Her hands and arms are not so lucky, nor is her armor. That is all right, because the sticky-feel of drying blood and gore reminds her that she can kill and kill well.
Her heart is still pounding, and she feels strangely alive, ready to rush headlong into another fight. Or-
She sheathes her swords and turns to her husband. The sight of him takes her breath away.
- Fuck.
Ozai doesn't deign to wear armor, and his fine robes are cut and torn and burnt. Tendrils of hair have come loose, and his hands are bloody to the elbow. He absently pushes hair out of his eyes, smearing blood across his face. His eyes blaze molten gold against the false, bloody warpaint.
He is more beautiful than anything.
Ursa stalks towards him, her hips swinging, and Ozai's expression becomes sharper, more intense. Hungry.One bloody hand siezes him by the ( ... )

That damn diamond-chains Ozai; culture shock. You know you wanna. <333
Ozai/Ursa, feral!verse; no one will ever change this animal I have become. Yes I DO mean the raised-by-sabretooth-moose-lions one, be grateful I did not ask for OzaiKITTY.
Ozai, Azula, Zuko, and lack-of-Ursa; see what you miss by being dead?

Ursa brings him back, Ursa always brings him back. But she cannot change that some mornings he is not Ozai, the wild one, but instead is the sabretooth moose-lion with hands and fire.
She cannot change that he learned language, his own language, because he is clever. That it is still an effort to translate some days.
His instincts are all wrong. They are the instincts of a solitary predator, and he always reads humans as cooperative herd creatures. Not quite predators, rarely prey.
Herds feel wrong, and he does not like crowds.
He likes Ursa, loves Ursa, fucks Ursa. So he lets her teach him to be human.
But some mornings he remembers he is a moose-lion.

Okay, so this is Good and Fun and teeth-baringly "mmmmm" Urzai, but even though I requested it I just CANNOT help cracking up at "remembers he is a moose-lion". There is no hope for me.
*meanwhile, licks Ursa vs. Ozai's animal. licks it.* And crowd/herd! <333

Hakozai, keeping it hidden. Because while traumatized Sokka is fun, traumatized Katara isn't.
Urzai, warrior.
Lu Ten and Ozai, teenhood. You know the drill, switch out the 'and' for '/' if you'd like. :D

Uncle Ozai has a lover, and it's not Lu Ten. Which is probably why three-quarters of the guards cower away from him, his mother isn't speaking to him, and the servants walk on glass around him.
Lu Ten is miserable of seeing Ozai with his guardsman, of their little not-very-secret touches, of the fierce delight in Ozai's face when he and Li Kazai spar together.
It's made him a snarling horror to be around, and he can't even tell anyone why he's behaving this way. Because Ozai is his uncle, and that means it doesn't matter that Ozai is his only equal or that Ozai is beautiful like a dragon in flight.
Lu Ten hates Kazai for having what he cannot. He'd love an excuse to challenge the older man to an Agni Kai, but he is never less than utterly respectful to Lu Ten ( ... )

Actually, I'm not shocked an angry and jealous 16 year old does this. My first thought? Zolena! How COULD you?

Ozai reached for the handle of the door. "Perhaps something a bit more subtle, Scourge."
The door obligingly opened. "Setting people on fire isn't subtle."
"Consider it less potentially damaging to the artifact then."
Ozai stepped down from the driver's side of the black truck, dressed in blood-red clothing of a foreign sort. He still wore the gold crown of Firelord in his hair, however, and he smiled to see the fear redouble on these men's faces.
Then Scourge transformed, and their opponents broke and ran.

On the other hand, I could read it as them being afraid to see the Firelord crown in Ozai's hair, so maybe they are in the Avatar universe.

As if he hadn't realized months ago that while he no longer felt fires, he did feel something else.
It had been going on for weeks before he really noticed it. He hadn't been himself for some time, his spirit retreating deep inside himself after the Avatar's mauling. After losing the entire world, everything he had ever won for himself.
Ozai's lips peeled back in a snarl. Weeks, weeks to realize that what he was sensing was not fire but something else. Weeks to realize he even sensed anything at all.
But there was something in people, in cups of tea, in the rain that danced in the places of his mind that had once listened to hearth-fires, signal-fires, and the flow of lava below the capital.
He refused to give it power by naming it. Not after his miserable failures to manipulate the element.
Ozai had been a firebending master. A grandmaster, likely, if that rank had not been abolished long ago. He burned in the core ( ... )

(XD I don't know what you mean specifically by "chat buddies", so I'm going to assume that's not me since I don't know)
Hmm... Ozai noticing Zuko likes boys more than a straight fire nation prince should (whether suspicions are well founded or his own misconceptions or Ozai is told this by Azula whom he trusts more or any combination of the three), and is not happy with this and confronts Zuko.
Can be either little Zuko at a time he's not around his mother (though Ursa's still alive), that intermin between his mother leaving and Zuko getting burned, or when he's back at the beginning of season three.

*awards an extra request-slot since I did say 'anything goes' previously*

Thank you for the extra slot! Hopefully these will go better:
--Ozai talking with Zuko after he comes back from those three years of banishment (since Zuko mentioned they were talking). His thoughts on how Zuko has changed while away.
--Ozai's thoughts on his children while they are still young. Ursa has either just left and he's been named firelord or Ursa is still around. He can either be thinking to himself to telling this to someone else (like Ursa if you want or someone else).
(XD Sorry, I just find Ozai's interactions with his children very intruiging)
