Description Delayed Toko week! What do you want? I'm behind schedule and I didn't even realize it until today!

~LengTu 's fault. She did one, so now I'm tempted and I've been meaning to put up these for a while.

Okay--So I did a series of images that surround a fan fiction on Toko. The basic idea (since at the time people were all like--they're too far apart in age! ew~) was that their relationship began as friends when the events of A:tLA happened, but as the years progressed it grew. I don't imagine them getting together very quickly. So I did a series of images of "over the years" showing the growth of their relationship. I kind of borrowed the idea from a friend on the avatar forum, who was writing a fan fiction surrounding the idea that Zuko traveled for a long time, patching up relations with the help of Aang and company before finally settling as Firelord--and that Iroh was pretty much running the kingdom in his absence. The thought made so much sense to me, and then it dawned. You know, it's probably during this time that Toph and Zuko get even closer. Which brought me joy. So based on all that, I began writing this fan fiction, and I drew the images to accompany it.

I was debating putting up small chunks of the story in the comments, but... hmmmm... it's iffy. I may just use the images again as chapter 'images'. Not sure. Still debating.

So here are the ones I'll be putting up during Toko week:

Friendship (Part I & II )
Travelling
Confrontation
Be Yourself
Quiet Words
Iroh's Happiness

Oh, and what it says on the bottom in case people have trouble reading it:

"Zuko travels with Aang, Katara and Toph over the entire world as an emissary (and future Firelord) for the Fire Nation while Iroh and Ursa pave the way for him back home. He tries to reestablish relations. Toph helps him convince the Earth King of his intentions."

LOL I love Toph's expression as she watches Zuko probably give a speech akin to his "Hey Zuko here" from the Western Airtemple & Zuko's cheezy grin makes me smile

Smiling is good. He's doing his best and at least he's got the support of his friends behind him. That's what's important.

yes it's contagious *beams at computer screen* lol I have a feeling Bosco will like him just as much as Appa does and that's all that matters to the Earth King

Best moment EVER: When Appa licks Zuko. I was just like SQUEEEEE!! *flails arms and spazzes* hence, you know, my doodle with him and Toph sleeping against Appa. <33

Did you notice that too? He so is. And, of course, so is Iroh. Hands down.

I like toph's hair that way. Kind of reminds me of the girl from quest for kamelot.

I figure it gets longer and longer as the years go by, and she stops taking care of it too. XD

Cause Toph is too hardcore to care about hair.

Ah, that. That is still in progress since I haven't had much time to write (since I'm writing so many other things as well for school). I'm still debating how I'm going to work it. I'll probably do it in a series of one shots, rather than like a huge chapter long fic or somesuch.

that sounds good. just let me know when you do write it, and i have you on watch so when you finally post it, i can read it. there's a major lack of good toko work, and they need more love. i understand being busy, so take your time and i love the work you have
