Fics like Hold Your Tongue, Hold Your Life.

Zuko opens his mouth to speak. To yell, to put a name to what they’re doing; murder. Abandonment. Slaughter of fresh cattle. He cannot simply sit and listen to this wake of beasts plan to take away these loyal fathers, sons, brothers. The warm air on his dry tongue is bitter, and the cacophony of noise in his mind makes it hard to find the words, but he stands anyways. And then he bows. Zuko is thirteen, and he does not speak out. __ Or: An alternate universe where Zuko manages to hold his tongue in that war meeting. He does not fight his father in an Agni Kai, does not get banished with only half a face and a ghost story to track down. How much does that change?
