Chapter 1 is almost done. It's just shy of 10k -- I spent the last two days revising the hell out of the first 7k, so that's why progress looks slow. I'm thinking that the whole story will be four or five parts total. I'm considering changing the tense (it's currently in present tense) but the thought of do so for 10k worth of text fills me with horror. I normally save present tense for short, tightly focused character-centric fics, but I think it works in this case because of the way everything revolves around FMB!Toph.
One of the things I've realized writing this fic is just what a positive influence the Gaang was on Toph. I suppose that's the affect of the hero's journey, though. If Aang had saved the world without bringing Katara and Sokka along with him, they'd have developed into remarkably different personalities as well.
