Why This Must Be Read: This is by far my favorite Zutara fic. Definitely AU, definitely rough in the beginning, but still a lovely fic.

Genre: romance/drama
WIP?: The first in a three-part series. The third part is still a WIP, but "break the ice" can be read as a standalone.
Why This Must Be Read: The banter, for one. The chemistry between Tahno and Korra in this fic is just about the most well-written I've seen for the ship. And I can handle the lack of angst because the second part is just about the angstiest thing ever.

Genre: angst
WIP?: No.
Why This Must Be Read: This fic is terrible in it's harshness, but still really, really beautiful. Characterizations are spot-on (even prostitute!Tahno's) and the subject matter is pretty dark for a LoK fic. Also, angst is always nice.

Genre: romance, angst, friendship
WIP?: Nope.
Why This Must Be Read: It's gorgeous, that's why. Pre-finale Tahno/Korra with just the right amount of Mako/Korra to make it believable - it's almost a look at what could-have-been.
