Fury and Flame is a crossover between WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender and George R.R. Martin's Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire series. Written by JMIII, it can be found [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12130574/1/Fury-and-Flame here]] on fanfiction.net

At an undetermined point in Avatar's second season, Princess Azula and her entourage find themselves suddenly and inexplicably transported to Westeros in the middle of Robert Baratheon's rebellion against the Mad King Aerys. After single-handedly lifting the siege of Storm's End, she enters a political marriage to Stannis Baratheon in order to protect her crew and obtain a seat at the table of Westerosi politics. As the years leading to the beginning of ''A Game of Thrones'' go by, Azula continues to make a name for herself while playing the long game in her rise from Lady of Dragonstone to ruler of the Seven Kingdoms.

!! Tropes Include:
* AdaptationalHeroism: Viserys is a far nicer person than in either the books or on Series/GameOfThrones, a result of being raised by his great uncle at The Wall.
* AntagonisticOffspring: Steffon disagrees with his mother's ruthlessness, although he cooperates with her plans under the condition that she keep the loss of innocent life to a minimum.
* BashBrothers: Steffon Baratheon and Theon Greyjoy
* BeneathTheMask: While outwardly unchanged from the series, Azula lets the mask drop in Chapter 14 during an argument with Ursa where she reveals that despite her calm demeanor she's very bitter about her situation and the choices she's had to make.
* CerberusRetcon: Chapter 10 reveals that Xai Bau, the Fire Nation soldier whose blunder allowed Zuko and Iroh to escape Azula's trap in ''Avatar'''s Season 2 premiere, is secretly a spy for the Order of the White Lotus.
* TheChessmaster: Azula has been spending fifteen years and fifty chapters making preparations to eventually make a move for the Iron Throne.
* CruelToBeKind: Azula is strict with her oldest daughter, bordering on abusive, but it's driven by the fear that Ursa will grow up to be like [[AxCrazy Ozai.]]
* DeadGuyJunior: Azula names her youngest child after Ty Lee when her friend dies saving her life.
* EnemyMine: Discussed by Asha Greyjoy and Arianne Martell in Chapter 12. Besides the potential alliance between themselves, Asha brings up the possibility that mutual hatred for Azula may lead to an alliance between the Lannisters and the Tyrells.
* EvilParentsWantGoodKids: While she's more morally gray then evil, Azula still qualifies as this. While she's as rutheless and manipulative as ever, she does want to make sure her children don't have the kind of childhood that she and Zuko did.
* FanGirl: Arya is a big fan of Azula.
* ForWantOfANail: So many that it's hard to keep track of all the dominoes Azula has nocked over in Westeros.
** For starters, her marriage to Stannis means that Selyse never enters the picture and Shireen is never born.
** After the Greyjoy rebellion fails, she convinces Robert to make Theon her ward instead of Ned Stark's, preventing Theon's canon betrayal by raising him for the express purpose of overthrowing his father should Balon Greyjoy attempt to rebel again.
** She takes Margery Tyrell as another ward after capturing Mace during the rebellion, ensuring that Margery will be loyal to her rather than marrying Renly like in the books.
** She captures Viserys and has him sent to the wall, where Maester Aemon raises him to be a better person than in the books, while Danerys grows up in Esos alone.
* GenerationXerox: Ursa has a lot in common with her grandfather Ozai, much to Azula and Mai's concern.
* HappilyMarried: Despite the fact that their marriage was for political purposes, Azula and Stannis come to genuinely care for each other.
* KryptoniteFactor: It's unknown how or why, but being in close proximity to wildfire makes firebenders ill.
* TheMole: Xai Bau was a spy for the Order of the White Lotus before Azula and her crew were stranded in Westeros.
* NamesTheSame: Azula names her oldest daughter after her mother Ursa.
* NotSoDifferent: Part of Azula's character development was driven by the realization that her father would have fared poorly in Westeros because of how similar he was to the Targaryens.
** She later notes with full awareness of the irony that her concern over Ursa taking after Ozai make her sound like her own mother did in ''Avatar''.
* OddFriendship: Surprisingly enough, Azula and ''Ned Stark'' get along rather well.
** Mai and Maester Cressen
** Ty Lee and Margery Tyrell
** Ursa Baratheon and Arya Stark
* OneSteveLimit: Averted. Besides ASOIAF character sharing first names, a few Fire Nation soldiers name their children after Azula, and Azula herself names her youngest daughter after Ty Lee.
* OriginalCharacter: Azula's daughters, Ursa and Ty Lee
* PregnantBadass: Being pregnant does nothing to stop Azula from fighting off assassination attempts or putting down insurrection.
* ReformedButNotTamed: While outwardly the same as she is in her own series, her time in Westeros has allowed Azula to reflect on her life from and outside perspective.
* SecretKeeper: Steffon protects Xai Bau's status as a White Lotus spy.
* SlowBurn: 50 chapters in, and the story hasn't even reached King Robert's death yet.
* TakingTheBullet: Ty Lee dies protecting Azula from assassination via poisoned darts.
* TeenPregnancy: Azula was only fifteen while pregnant with Steffon.
* TookALevelInKindness: Azula hasn't changed much since coming to Westeros, but she does love her family and remaining friend.
* UndyingLoyalty: Thus far everyone who lives and works at Dragonstone develops this towards Azula.
