can we talk ab how Toph was nowhere to be found in TSR when the like fights were happening ab KAtara wanting revenge? The writers knew it would just have her like “fuck yeah, I wanna kill this bitch too, let’s go” so they just had her like… not there… LOL
Also if Toph were there it would have killed the “tomboy vs girly girl” thing that is so tied to the way this episode dichotomizes Katara and treats her anger as unnatural and opposed to her more “feminine” nurturing side. I think it’s telling that both Toph and Suki “I’m a warrior but I’m a girl too” are mysteriously absent when the guys are telling Katara that being angry and wanting revenge will ruin her.
