Alright, it is time for TOKO! Yes I know fangirls, you will all be disappointed and kill me. SECURITY! AHHH

I'm writing this at 2 in the morning. TOO MUCH DAMN HISTORY! OMFG I HAVE SCHOOL AT 8 O'CLOCK. IMA GET LIKE 4 HOURS OF SLEEP. AHHHHH

So, in conclusion, I'll make this quick.

1. Sexiness isn't a reason to ship - it's all about character compatibility

baby! (and Toko has plenty of that)

2. A young, blind girl certainatly should tear Zuko away from his self pity for

long enough to show some compassion (and perhaps some protectiveness as well)!

3. Seeing her win through her struggles being blind should gain some serious

respect from Zuko because that's what he's going through - and Zuko can't be

with someone he doesn't respect! ;) ... if you've noticed as well... he really

doesn't respect many people, so that list is going to be horribly short. :D

4. She's got a good head on her shoulders, like Iroh. So she'd know how to

treat him when he gets in a mood (who am I kidding? He's always in a mood!)

5. Iroh said that she sounds a lot like him! (nudge, nudge... wink, wink).

6. They can both talk about coming from noble families but living on the harsh,

unforgiving Earth Kingdom wilderness...

7. He'd be very amused at her nicknames for the Avatar (and Katara, and Sokka

for that matter).

8. Not only would she put up with Zuko in his angsty moods, she'd also get his

mind off it. Most probably by grinding his face into the dirt... but she might

be able to make him laugh (that'd be a momentous occasion).

9. Who else would find Zuko calling Iroh and the White Lotus crew - "old

gasbags" - humerous? Well, maybe Sokka... but Sozu is just too disturbing.

10. Zuko doesn't relate very well with chicks (do I have to paint a picture here

- Jun, Katara, Song?) and Toph isn't that great with guys either (at least with

her you can chalk it down to inexperience). Together - they're a perfect blend

of faux pars and bizarre, yet painful courtship!

11. Who doesn't want to see Zuko as Toph's whipping boy? It'd be so demeaning to

him, but oh, the laughs we'd get!

12.Azula beat up on poor Zu-zu when he was little, it's only natural he'd pick

someone else to take her place... (since he's used to it and all) of course,

13.Toph would be a lot nicer than Azula... plus, just ask Aang - Toph's "cruel to

be kind" method actually works. Maybe she could beat some of that humility he

so badly needs out of him...

14. In some way, I'm sure Zuko would be more comfortable with someone who

couldn't actually see him. In case anyone hasn't noticed by season two, he's

kinda impersonal and guarded (as his scar brings him much shame since it was

his father who gave it to him... painful memories... all that stuff)

15. Both of them veiw people without bending as kind of weak and pathetic,

showing their intolerance and immaturity (in a sense). So, I'm sure they'd

have a good time picking on people like Sokka!

16. As far as age goes, what's a few years when it's the perfect love/hate

relationship? Plus, as stated above... Zuko's not exactly Mr Mature. That's

what he has Iroh for! (if anyone shipped Haru/Katara... same age difference.

Just wait till Toph's 14 too!)

17. Neither of them are particularly emotional (not on a Katara scale... but with

family issues, yeah), although I'm sure at Iroh's death, they'd have a large

degree of understanding.

18. Zuko would totally love her abrash "self-assuredness". Reminds him of

someone he knows... ;)

19. They're both sore losers, are frustrated that people assume they are weak and

have a bit of a short fuse. Who better to understand the boy hungering so

badly to be understood - then someone who is just like him?

20. "Uncle Iroh is often a balance for Zuko's anger" and so would Toph be.

21. However people like Katara and Mai would just add more fuel to the fire, so to

speak from lack of understanding him.

22.Katara is too emotional for him, and Mai isn't emotional enough (more like

barely breathing) - yet Toph is tough, yet can have a slightly guarded

emotional side, just like him.

23. The only two to have other identities (cough symbolism cough)

Other romantic pairings won't kill the Toko pairing. Zuko could have a fling

with Katara and Toph could have a moment with Sokka... and there would still be

a chance of them coming to their senses and realizing they're meant to be

together! Or having a close friendship to turn into something more... (unless

Zuko gets married or something... which I'm betting ain't gonna happen anytime

soon).

24. She's noble (not to mention rich) enough to be Fire Lady. Much better than

the (practically worthless) peasant Katara.

25. They're the two most rockin' characters on the show! Think of how

unstoppable they'd be together!
