Love and friendship are also common themes. The OC might start as an enemy or a stranger to Azula, but over time, they develop a bond. This bond could be platonic or romantic. Additionally, self - discovery is a theme. As Azula interacts with the OC, she discovers new aspects of herself. And the OC also might grow and change through their relationship with Azula.
One common theme is redemption. The male oc often serves as a catalyst for Azula's possible redemption arc. Another theme is the exploration of power dynamics. Azula is a powerful character, and seeing how she interacts with the male oc in terms of power, whether it's her trying to dominate or learning to share power, is quite common.
One popular 'azula x male oc fanfic' could be 'Azula's Unforeseen Bond'. In this fic, the male oc is a foreign diplomat's son who comes to the Fire Nation. Their relationship develops as they spar and have intellectual debates. Another is 'Azula and the Lost Soul' where the male oc has a mysterious past and they end up on an adventure together.
I've heard of 'Azula's Redemption through an OC'. In this story, the OC is a kind - hearted philosopher. They engage with Azula in deep conversations, slowly making her question her actions. 'Azula and the Foreigner' is also worth checking out. The OC in this one is from a different culture, and their interactions with Azula expose her to new ideas and ways of thinking.

One great 'Zuko x Azula fanfic' is 'The Redemption of Siblinghood'. It delves deep into their complex relationship, exploring how they could potentially heal the rifts between them. The story has a slow - burn element which makes their journey towards understanding each other very engaging.
I really like 'Azula and Katara: A New Path'. In this fanfic, it starts with a rather hostile encounter between them. But as the story progresses, they discover that they have more in common than they thought, especially when it comes to their family issues and the pressure they've faced in their lives.
Sure. 'Azula's Redemption' is a great one. It shows an original character interacting with Azula in a way that gradually changes her for the better. The character development in this fanfic is really well - done.
Another good one is 'Azula's Unlikely Ally'. In this fanfiction, the OC is a commoner in the Fire Nation who somehow befriends Azula. The story delves deep into Azula's character, showing how she can befriend someone outside of her usual social circle. It has some great character development for both Azula and the OC.
