Where the ocean runs deep and the sky never lets go, two worlds collide. He belongs to the land. She belongs to the sea. Some bonds are written in water. Others are strong enough to drown in...
And some currents cannot be resisted.

Where The Tides Remember Us || Neteyam Sully 𓆝 ⋆.
Born of the reef and raised beneath impossible expectations, Lei'ya of the Metkayina has spent her life becoming everything others need her to be. Future tsahik. Skilled warrior. Perfect daughter. A light for everyone around her. Strong enough never to break, kind enough never to refuse, and selfless enough to forget herself entirely. But even the ocean has depths no one sees. When war drives the Sully family from the forest to the sea, Lei'ya's carefully balanced world begins to shift. Among them is Neteyam Sully, quiet, dutiful, and carrying a grief that mirrors her own unspoken weight. As the reef teaches the forest people how to breathe, swim, and survive, Lei'ya and Neteyam find something neither of them expected: understanding without explanation, comfort without demand, and a connection that feels as natural as the tide. Caught between destiny and desire, tradition and choice, Lei'ya must confront a truth she has never allowed herself to face, what happens when the girl who gives everything finally wants something for herself? A story of love born in silence, strength carried quietly, and two souls meeting where the ocean remembers everything. °‧ 𓆝 𓆟 𓆞 ·｡ *UNEDITED*

꧁ ⟡ ᛬ THE FOREST FELL INTO THE SEA ᛬ ⟡
꧁ ⟡ STORY DESCRIPTION ⟡ ꧂ When the forest becomes a battlefield, the ocean becomes a refuge - but refuge does not mean mercy. Lor'eya, daughter of Jake Sully and Neytiri, is forced to leave the only home she has ever known when the sky people return with fire and blood. The Sullys flee to the distant reefs of the Metkayina clan, where the water is endless, the rules are unforgiving, and the forest girl does not belong. There, Lor'eya meets Ao'nung - proud, sharp-tongued, and everything she despises. He is tasked with teaching her how to survive the sea, and from their very first encounter, sparks fly - not of attraction, but of rivalry, resentment, and unspoken tension. Every lesson becomes a battle. Every argument drags them closer to a line neither of them is willing to cross. She fights the water. He fights wanting her. As danger closes in and loyalties are tested, hatred blurs into something darker, deeper, and far more dangerous than love. In a place where breath is borrowed and the tide remembers everything, two enemies must decide whether they will drown in denial - or fall together beneath the same sea. Enemies to lovers. Slow burn. Angst. Avatar: The Way of Water inspired. ꧁ ⟡ Some ties are not chosen - they are pulled by the tide. ⟡ ꧂ Disclaimer: I do not own Avatar or its characters. This is a fanfiction written for entertainment purposes only. I do own the female protagonist, Lor'eya.

Wish You Were Dead
'Sometimes I fool myself into thinking you love me.' She stares up into his eyes. His hands pause in her hair as he holds her gaze, 'Sometimes I do, too.' It was undeniable that Alyara would play the role of Tsahik. Being favored by Netayam's grandmother, Mo'at, she was chosen as Neteyam's future mate. Alyara was perfect--she was tall, beautiful, strong, and kind. The whole clan loved her. And Neteyam never hated anyone more. (OCCASIONAL GRAPHIC DEPICTIONS OF WOUNDS AND TORTURE. SLIGHT RACISM?? TOWARD HUMANS) If you are looking for a quick romance, I'm sorry, but this is a definite slow burn! I have four main plots I'm focusing on: Neteyam and his struggle with war, life, and expectations; Alyara and her spiritual journey and feeling wanted; the ATWOW plot; and finally their romance. Once finished, this will be lengthy, with works of a second book!

Oblivious Love | Aonung 🤍
For Zari, life on the reef has always been simple. Diving beneath crystal waters, laughing with friends, and dutifully dodging her mother's endless matchmaking schemes. At twenty, she's already past the typical mating age, but she's never truly looked at anyone with longing. Why rush love when the sea already gives her everything? Until he steps in. Aonung, her brother's best friend. The infuriating boy who used to tease her, the skilled hunter everyone admires, the one she's never really paid attention to... until now. But Aonung is off-limits. Surely, he's only ever seen her as Kizan's little sister... right? Caught between duty, family, and forbidden longing, Zari must decide if love is worth risking everything, especially when it's the kind that sneaks up on you when you least expect it. Disclaimer: I do not own Avatar nor Aonung except for my story and my original characters 🤍

It was none other than Toruk makto who saved her from her sadness. That night, everything changed for the better. But she didn't expect to meet her soulmate, and to grow together as better persons.
