Zimmay - Tokka - Height Difference


This is the colored version of the Height Difference drawn by Zimmay that I had commissioned.

I had seen similar pictures to this one before where it was Sokka and Toph kissing and Toph had earthbended a platform for herself to kiss Sokka. When you think about it, it rather is empowering in a way that she uses her talents to get close to him.

The biggest problem that I had with this was what to do with the background. Originally I thought of putting a wall there something like the walls of Ba Sing Se but then I thought of something more like the ocean and when I did that there seemed to be this mixture and fusion of Earth and Water. Such as the earth that they’re standing on and the ocean in the background. So it’s a nice meeting of Earth Kingdom and Water Tribe.

But with a picture like this I think I’ll write something as a setup.

Toph came up to Sokka.

“Can I talk to you alone, Sokka?” She asked.

“Sure, Toph.”

She had taken him to the edge of the island where they were hiding out before the time of the invasion. It was a nice spot as far as the view of the ocean but Sokka understood that Toph couldn’t see it.

“What’d you want to talk to me about?”

“Would you mind trying something with me?” She asked and Sokka could already tell that she was blushing underneath the bangs of black hair.

“Is it anew attack or something?”

“You could say that.”

“Okay sure.”

Toph moved forward towards Sokka. She stamped her foot on the ground and earthbended a platform for herself which brought her face towards the neck level of Sokka.

“What’re you doing Toph?” He asked.

She didn’t answer but instead leaned forward, pushing herself up onto her toes, and pressing her lips against Sokka’s.

The shock was so much that he could feel the heat flash through his body as if he were ice in the middle of a frying pan. He had kissed girls before. There was Suki and Princess Yue but with Toph there was something very different about it. He wasn’t sure and frankly he didn’t care anymore. He simply allowed it to happen as if he were a boat being carried out to sea.
