Can you do 5 headcanons on boy Toph?

attackfish:

1. I once made a five headcanons post about trans girl Toph, and everything I said in there about how the Bei Fongs perceive their “son” applies here too.  His blindness now is not part of how he is a delicate flower who needs to be protected.  Now he is a vulnerable defective heir who needs to be protected.  He does however get to have more of a public life than his counterpart.  People know he exists, and girls whose families want them to marry into the Bei Fong family learn to present themselves as the kind of sweet nurturing wife who would take care of a blind husband.  Toph would rather not, thanks.

2. The way he meets the gaang doesn’t really change.  He is still the Blind Bandit, he still threatens to call the guards on Aang, and he still runs away to teach Aang earthbending.

3. He is significantly more bewildered by his crushes first on Sokka then on Zuko though.

4. In Ba Sing Se, Toph escorts Katara as her recent betrothed.  Everybody thinks they’re adorable and adorably dutiful to their families, since it’s obviously an arranged match.  They’re only children after all.  Katara is seriously wigged out.

5. Katara feels even more all alone as the only girl with all these obnoxious boys.  Then Zuko joins, and she’s outnumbered four to one, six to one if you count Appa and Momo.  Even the animals are boys.  Thank goodness Suki joins them, seriously.
