    Given Toph’s whole deal I honestly thought this was 100% intentional; moreover, an intentional joke by Toph herself

    Huh. How did I never make that connection? That’s hilarious.

    I figured she did this so her allies could see it was her. Mouths and noses are harder to identify than Toph’s blind eyes.

      Unless it had been explicitly discussed off-screen, how would she know this? Most sighted people don’t casually mention it, afaik

      Hmm. I get what you’re saying, but our eyes are a massive weak spot. Not just in support of seeing, but those two squishy orbs are all that protects the eye socket and our brains beyond.
