Dadkoda strikes again! *Mostly Inspired by Salvage by Muffinlance on ao3*
Inktober Day 9: Pressure
“Hugging the boy tighter made him go stiffer, his breaths more ragged.”
It’s a Hakuddle!<3 from chapter 8 of Salvage, immediately pre-haircut.
Zuko from @muffinlance ‘s Salvage because why not
In appreciation...
I’ve discovered a new(ish) fanfic author and have devoured her work. It has become my soulfood seaprunes and crack-cactus juice all in one. (It’s a complement Sokka would understand... like meat and sarcasm.)
Of course, Salvage by @muffinlance strikes very near and dear to my heart, since I’m writing my own #dadkoda fic, The Dragon and the Wolf, and I just want all. the. love. for Zuko. (And yes, that was a shameless plug. But I didn’t know #hakuddles as a genre existed, and now I’ve found my place in the world. It inspired a two-chapter update after a year-long hiatus!)
Toph’s characterization in Towards the Sun is PERFECT. Perhaps even a bit underappreciated? It’s not like @muffinlance needs my endorsement or anything. The work speaks for itself. But writing Toph is something that is either done well or just, not.
Those two fics are fan favorites as far as I can tell, but I absolutely adored Little Zuko v the World. Spot-on-Sokka, Jee-Armor-Creaks, and Forced-Friendship-Aang are the lifelines I didn’t know I needed.
I’m also a sucker for Cheating at Pai Sho because I can just imagine it... fun-loving Aang and quick-thinking Water Tribe sibs convincing Zuko to let them join in the search for the Avatar? Thank you, @muffinlance. I am now complete.
Also, after years in the fandom, two of my other favorites @awesomeavocadolove and @emletish-fish are still updating, and this gives me so. much. hope. I’m seriously tearbending, y’all.

I can't wait to see how Sokka and Katara are going to react to their mom literally adopting the current Fire Lord (son of Fire Lord Ozai, great-grandson of Fire Lord Sozin). I truly cannot wait for them to literally lose their shit. ALSO CAN WE GET MORE HAKKUDLES PLEASE. I NEED MORE DADKODA!!! Seriously. I don't care if its through a servant or smthg that he finds out what happened to this kid, Zuko needs a dad (who won't torture him for existing).
You have no idea how much I have to restrain myself. I’m so tempted to just completely skip all of the development just to give Zuko the Hakuddles. But if I did, I would never forgive myself, so I must. show. restraint.
Still, we’re getting closer and closer. Dadkoda is coming, you just gotta hang on.
Hakuddles aside, I think the real question is what sort of ship mascot/pet does Hakoda's crew that can snuggle up to Zuko in adoration while the crew looks on in bemusement
ASKING THE IMPORTANT QUESTIONS
Okay but really this is in my outline with lots of questions marks next to it. Now accepting Water Tribe ship's-cat-equivalent suggestions! Bonus points awarded for some version of a Southern cat that is just as instinctively off-putting to Zuko as mimic-catopuses are to Sokka.
theres been a massive explosion of atla au fics where “hakoda and his crew capture Zuko then almost give him up to the earth kingdom but then decide to adopt him instead” so i was thinking what if it was “eath kingdom army captures Zuko but arent able to keep him contained cause he keeps setting shit on fire so they think the water tribe should be able to keep him in check at least until we get an aswer from Ozai, cause they use ships so the kid would have no where to go, so they call Hakoda to come see the kid to decide if its possible to do the transfer and he comes and sees this fucking child being treated like a high security criminal so hes like, idk if we’re able to control him but holly shit i cant leave him here, and takes him to his ship and then slowly adopts him.”
