FanFiction I come pleading for fic recs

Hi everyone!

I've recently gone on a bit of a fanfic reading binge and I'm finding myself in dire need of some fic recs. It turns out I have a real addiction to selection show style stories featuring our favourite not-so-banished prince and our favourite waterbender competing for his hand. I think I just like the whole ensemble cast aspect of it. It's great getting everyone together and it's also very satisfying when Zuko inevitably selects Katara. I've read The Prince's Choice and just found The Bride Show and I adore both of them. If anyone knows of any other fics with this sort of premise please send them my way.

Thank you in advance, fellow Zutarians ♥️

@ zutara.fanfics on insta posts a tonnn of fic recs on the reg!

If you haven't read Once Around the Sun by eleventy7, it's a cornerstone of zutara fanfics, and the best thing I've ever read:

It depends a lot on what you're into, in terms of AUs or more canon-compliant. Salt and Scale is really amazing, but majorly canon divergent: https://archive.transformativeworks.org/works/50230978/chapters/126870742

This is a newer one but it's amazing: https://archiveofourown.org/works/25116697/chapters/60850726
