ALL THE FEELS!!!

Excuse me while I cry my eyes out!

Honestly, I could see Toph really worrying about something like this with Lin. For more reasons that one.  Toph’s blindness isn’t exactly as much a disability for her, she doesn’t need her eyes to see.  However, I think, she really hates missing out of the actually sights of things.  She doesn’t know fireworks, their just bangs to her, she can’t see shooting stares, and colors are unknown to her.  Her whole life she’s probably heard descriptions and sounds, but she’s never seen any of it.  I don’t think she minds to much, but she clearly gets annoyed when people in away forget she’s blind.

Also, if Lin had been a non-bender and blind, that would kill Toph.  I mean, she’s blind, but she sees with her bending.  If Lin was born with out any bending and she was blind she would be “helpless.”  Toph is rough and tough because her parents sheltered and babied her when they didn’t have to.  However, the idea would scare Toph, because she would actually have to do everything her parents did because Lin actually needed it, because Lin really couldn’t defend herself or see in a way that Toph does.  If Lin had been born the way she was execpt for the fact that she was blind, I don’t think Toph would make a huge deal about it.

And the Tokka in this picture.  Let me just roll over and die.  I don’t think Sokka is Lin’s father, for obvious reasons, even if it was kept secret, I think Aang, Katara, and Zuko would have found out some how.  I do, however, think that Sokka always cared for Toph and ended up with her at an older age.  I could see him loving Lin in a way a father would, and being extremely supportive and positive about Toph’s pregnancy, always shooing away her worries.  Not to say Aang and Katara weren’t doing the same thing, but Sokka’s words were just the ones that stuck.

Okay enough talking!  I feel A fanfic coming on.
