Summary
Buck is so used to having to hold back his feelings for his best friend. When things come to a boiling point, sometimes all you need is a friend.
[Direct Message from Ricky Reed]: Hi Buck, I know that you don’t know me, but I make videos over on TikTok. I kept getting comments on my videos saying that I had to watch you, that we had a similar feeling and I was blown away by what I saw. I’m not even sure if this would interest you, but if you ever want to get together and just sing and jam I would really enjoy that. And mate, I am so sorry, no one sings like you did without getting hurt. I know this means nothing at all, but no one deserves that kind of pain. Regards, Ricky.
Or the Youtuber AU that grew into Buck finding the love he deserves.

Bookmarker's Notes
“I’ve been saving it for something important.” She said slowly, looking back up at the face of the enemy.
She managed not to flinch when his eyes narrowed at her searchingly, and simply held the vial of oasis water between them. Without saying anything further, she reached for his face. The left side.
The scar tissue was a strange mix of textures. She’d never gotten so close to long-healed burn scars before. The skin moved loosely beneath her touch, but the bumpy tissue beneath it remained stiff and unmoveable. Zuko’s breathing seemed harsh and shaky, but his face managed to remain impassive.
“But…” She pulled her hand away. “I only have enough water for one attempt. It may not even work…” she trailed off, feeling uncertain, but he was watching her again and the sense of empathy, of strange camaraderie, that she’s started feeling when he mentioned his mother’s loss grew. “But I’ll try.”
---
Katara was furious. How could Zuko be so stupid? Why hadn’t he told her? She pushed her way through the soldiers and stormed into the Firelord’s tent. “Zuko!” She hissed. “Did you seriously ask Aang to kill you?”Zuko looked back at her, dazed. “No?” He tried, but his face did that thing it did when he was lying and she could have screamed at him in frustration. “Yes,” He amended, quickly. “It’s not as bad as it sounds…”
“Not as-?” Katara didn’t think she had ever been this angry at him. “I saw you a month ago! Why didn’t you talk to me?”
“I didn’t want to worry you,” Zuko tried, standing from his desk with a pained expression. “I just... I don’t want to end up like him .”
The promise he’d bound Aang to- the oath that had weighed so heavily on Aang’s shoulders, to kill the young Fire Lord if he began to turn into his father. Katara crossed the tent quickly, wrapping a startled Zuko in a tight hug. “You won’t,” She promised. “You’re not like him at all.”
That seemed to be the wrong thing to say.
