Summary
Eddie's sixteen when he thinks, perhaps, God erred in the creation of his heart. It takes another sixteen years to realize he's whole and loved precisely as he is.
This is everything in-between.

Summary
Buck has spent months telling himself that as long as Eddie and Christopher were happy, he was happy for them. And they deserve to be happy, nobody deserves happiness as much as them. He could live with that. He never quite convinced himself that last part was true, but God he tried.
Then Eddie was reaching out to Buck across the asphalt from a growing pool of his own blood. And Buck’s never felt so stupid in his entire goddamn life.
He should have told him. He should have told Eddie he’s in love with him. Has been in love with him. Will always be in love with him. He should have told him and now it might be--
Well. He should have told him.

Summary
“Who the hell is that?”
“That’s Eddie Diaz, new recruit. Graduated top of his class just this week.” Bobby does a poor job of hiding his amused smile. “Guys over at Station Six were dying to have him, but I convinced him to join us.”
And Buck tries to pay attention, really he does, but right around ‘top of his class’ his eye catches on the new guy’s soulmark and all he can hear is his own heartbeat thundering in his ears. The words carving down the right side of Eddie Diaz’s rib cage read you can have my back any day in an achingly familiar scrawl.

Summary
Scholars have guessed at many potential identities for Chaejin, from the far-fetched (Master Toph Beifong) to the purely fanciful (an unnamed cabbage salesman).
The prevailing theory at the time of publication is that Chaejin’s work was a collaboration between a member of the Fire Nation royal family and Sokka of the Southern Water Tribe.
—Kirima Hira’a, A Storied Life in an Age of Upheaval: A History of Sokka of the Southern Water Tribe, p. 7
---
Sokka never actually meant to become one of the great historians of their time, it's just that he always liked telling stories and having excuses to hang out with Zuko.

The last thought of Shirley Crain's too-short life, between the final, futile plea and the ungentle kiss of rope, is, Nelly was right.

Summary
"He thinks about Abby and Ali and Taylor and he sees the string tying them all together because he had loved them and touching them had felt right for a while because he had never really been with someone he'd loved before them and the novelty of the feeling convinced him it was enough, but as he's staring at the ceiling in the dark he suddenly holds the knowledge in his hands that it is not enough, that it doesn't make him feel good and never will.
Taylor will not want him for more than what she's wanted him for so far and he knows he has to put a stop to it before he damages himself further."

Summary
She opens her locker, giving him a sidelong glance. “So does Buck know you’re-“
The rest of her question gets cut off by a quiet, disbelieving, “Eddie?” and she and Eddie turn just in time for Buck to slam straight into Eddie.
Eddie takes a step back with the force of it but his arms come up around Buck immediately, hugging back just as fiercely. She catches sight of his blinding smile before he tucks his face into Buck’s shoulder and Lucy stares, can’t help it when they’re hugging like long-lost lovers being reunited.
Buck pulls back first, hands still firmly on Eddie’s arms as he jostles him. “You asshole!” he exclaims with a laugh that sounds more than a littler watery. “I was literally at your house last night; why didn’t you say anything?!”
“Wanted it to be a surprise,” he says, voice low and soft in a way that finally makes her turn away to pretend to be busy with her locker.

Five times someone realises Buck is in love with Eddie and one time Buck realises he's in love with Eddie.

Worst news: Buck is the world's least accomplished liar.

Summary
“Listen to me, Buck,” Bobby tells him lowly, but anything louder and Buck thinks his eardrums would shatter. His whole world has been whisper-quiet and he’s anxiously waiting for the inevitable noise that breaks through. “You did everything you could. You got him here, kid, and that counts for a hell of a lot.”
Buck searches Bobby’s face for any ounce of hope he can steal for himself—but his heart feels like a cavernous void, and it seems dangerous to put something so bright next to it.
“You didn’t see him, Bobby,” Buck says quietly, brokenly, like it explains why he can’t believe that.
or, the post-shooting fic where Buck is there when Eddie wakes up, and things get easier from there.

Summary
His Google search history leading up to Hen and Karen’s vow renewal looks like this:
How to stop being attracted to your best friend
Why am I attracted to my best friend
Why am I attracted to my best friend + man
Why are arms so attractive on men
How to make my house carry-proof
How do I tell my best friend to keep his shirt on
Why does my best friend keep yawning
Yawning remedies
Dry lip remedies
Slip-resistant dish gloves
Slip-resistant dish gloves floral patternAnd then he just spent the next hour finding and ordering stupid dish gloves for Buck, because Google, it turns out, does not always have the answer, and leaves Eddie with more questions than before (like: does Buck have sleep apnea, actually, and if so, should he be seeing someone for it?).
