"incest" as in "noone understand me the way you do" and "noone can hurt me the way you do" and "I loved you since day one and I will love you till the end of time" and "I hate you in such a personal, visceral way that only you can make me feel. You hurt me so much yet I still long for you and what we used to have" and "you annoy me so much but I don't know how to define myself without you" and "you're my home, my world, my safety net" and "how can something that's supposedly so wrong feel like comfort and safety" and always "you're part of my flesh, anyone who manages to tear us apart will leave us mutilated and bleeding and we will never be whole again".
Incest can fit all of these contradicting emotions between two people in one lifetime. The blood pact is inscripted in their DNA after all.
your choice

Don't make an OC that is clearly just Zuko 2.0/Azula 2.0 to ship zucest without having to admit it's Zucest. Much like in the previous exemple, everyone can tell, just rip the band-aid off already.
Wait, people do that?
Yes. A lot. Same for replacing the personality of actual characters to turn them into Zuko/Azula, and it's rarely even subtle.
The worst exemple I've ever seen was a fic in which Zuko was given 5 or 6 potential brides to choose from, and the one he immediately hates and that is obviously the endgame is...
An elitist, racist, high ranking noble lady that is super arrogant, very manipulative, feels entitled to marry the Fire Lord and acts like it's a given, and oh, would you look at that, she's a firebending prodigy - though her fire is not blue so OBVIOUSLY she's not Azula, what are you talking about?
And the overwhelming majority of Azula X Lu Ten fics are just zucest for people who go "Listen, cousins fucking is normal, SIBLINGS fucking is too much."
Lots of Sokkla/Azulaang fics also try to force a "Azula faces her old rival and falls for him" angle like Zuko wasn't the only rival she had, ever (on top of trying to give Sokka daddy issues or make Aang ambitious, which COME ON)
I absolutely love that, really.
