I did, at first. I just wanted to do what I thought was best for the Group. It was in rather a precarious position after my father died. [ That one still hurts to talk about although she's getting better at it. Slowly. ]
It was felt that an alliance was needed by means of the marriage.
That was until I realised what an utter swine my fiancé was and that I was more than capable of leading without his and his family's influence.
I did what my parents wanted at first too I didn't really think about it until Aang came along and asked me to do something different I'm their only child so I thought I had to, you know?
But I don't have to do anything. And you don't, either. I know you can lead a company by yourself.
Yeah, a really good friend. He needed me to leave to teach him earthbending so we could stop the war.
If I wasn't born blind my parents might have believed in me more, who knows But I'm also a Beifong You're also a Kirijo We get to say what that means, too
A war... I can see I'm going to have to ask you a whole lot more questions another time, Toph. Not by text message this time either.
You're right. We do.
Although right now I will dictate to you that being a Beifong means owns several new outfits - as we previously discussed. Not just for the free night.

Regrettably, yes. Age or gender have often been areas of concern.
[ And you know, since Toph has shared a subject that is clearly not great for her, maybe it's Mitsuru's turn. ]
I believe those were factors in my Group's decision to seek out a
fiancé for me.

As if I'd ever marry someone I could crush with a flick of my pinky

I'm sorry about your dad, though.

I'm also an only child so I recognise that burden.
Perhaps we have more in common than I initially realised.
Thank you.
For the vote of confidence and your sympathies.
