Set some time in the first year after the end of the show.

Tea

The assassination attempt failed.

The rebels thought they had the perfect plan. They knew the new Firelord loved his tea, the precise time he drank it every morning, that he preferred blends shipped in from The Jasmine Dragon. They even knew how to sneak in one of their own to deliver it.

All they had to do was wait.

They didn't know this Firelord knew his servants by name, that he preferred to brew his own tea, that with one smell he recognized the poison.

White Jade. Really?

The new Firelord was nothing like his father.

It saved his life.


Notes: Just a fun drabble, though I like to imagine how Zuko's rule is nothing like Ozai's and how Iroh's influence continues to be felt on his nephew.
