"The stars are like bells," he said.

"Bells," she said. It wasn't a question.

"Yep, bells. The brightest ones, they're like the bells at the Fire Nation Palace. You know how you can always hear them no matter where you are in the city?" Toph nodded. "Well, you can always see the brightest of the stars, no matter what.

"Then there are faint ones, like wind chimes. Sometimes you have to strain to hear the chimes, and sometimes you have to strain to see the stars.

"Some are in the middle. Not loud, not quiet, but always there. There are so many that you could never count them all, even if you spent your entire life trying. But they all compliment each other, so instead of just having a noise, there is a perfect melody being played out in the sky every night."

Sokka waited for Toph to say something, but she was silent. He didn't know what else to say; he was so sure that she would understand that he didn't even think about what to do if she didn't.

Toph took a deep breath. "Not bad, Sokka," she finally said. "I think I get it."

Sokka held her a little tighter. "I knew you would," he said, smiling.

Well guys, here's me submission for the Pic & Fic exchange at :icontokka-fans-united:.

My partner this time round was the awesome =Leona629 and this pic is based on her beautiful story. It has two of me favourite things in it. Stars and Tokka. Ya cant get any better then that. :D If ya haven't read it yet *tut tut* go check it out. Its deadly![link] I hope this pic lives up to the awesomness of her story.

I think I might go back and fix up the stars. And I kinda screwed up the perspective a bit, but meh, what can ya do?

And I can't believe its been over a month since I posted anything. Its madness, but guys Im going through one of the worst art blocks in me life! Its doing me head in so it is!!

Now on to more serious business. WHERE THE HECK HAVE ALL ME FELLOW TOKKANEERS GONE!?! Janey mac seriously, where are ye? You've all gone AWOL!!! You haven't, dare I say it, stopped shipping Tokka!?! :fear: *bites tongue* OW!!

TOKKA ALWAYS FTW!!!!!!

The picture was great, but the story that accompanied it was...simply beautiful. A poetic soul you are.

No I'm not, a dragon only speaks the truth my friend. You've got a great way of capturing the characters in these short exercpts.

Ok, whatever resistence I had towards liking this couple is now completely failing.
Brilliant. And I love Sokka's little analogy.
Great Picture!

Man oh man just too damned cute.

I like how unlike most of your others I've seen, this seems like it's when they're younger, like maybe shortly after the war. And they're in Appa's saddle, etc.

Love it love it.
