azula and zuko came out to each other at the same time. when it came to telling their dad they were worried about what he would say bc being gay is still illegal but no one had ever made being trans illegal so they had no clue how he'd react

azula: ok. ok i know what to do

zuko: what

azula: we're going to have to gaslight him

zuko: ...what?

azula: look dad's very distracted if we can get everyone to act like i've always been a girl and you've always been a boy he'll probably fall for it

zuko: what about our names?

azula: we'll switch. i'll be azula and you can be zuko. if no one has to learn new names it'll be much easier.

zuko: ok let's do it

ozai: good morning zuko

zuko: good morning

ozai: ? i was talking to zuko

azula: what do you mean, father? that IS zuko. are you feeling alright?

ozai: ...something's not right.

azula & zuko: *nervous sweating*

ozai: ...azula didn't you used to be taller?

azula: zuko hit a growth spurt last night. and trapped me in the washing machine

zuko: wait what was that last part-

ozai: zuko how dare you do such a thing to your sister! you're grounded!

zuko: but-

azula: it must be difficult having such a problematic son

ozai: it really is. fortunately i have a wonderful daughter *wanders off*

azula: see? told you

zuko: did you have to get me grounded tho?

azula: ...yes

Trans Zuko is so funny to me. I’m not saying this to try and make fun of people who headcanon him as trans - trans headcanons are great and I support them. It’s just wild because it implies Ozai was out here like:
