Touya Todoroki

He is tall, thin, and has a relaxed posture, with a presence that seems nonchalant yet intimidating. His hair is dark and dyed (originally white or red in his childhood), messy, and falls naturally, giving him a disheveled look. The most distinctive feature of her appearance is the burned skin covering much of her body—face, neck, arms, and torso—held together with surgical staples. These marks are not hidden: they are a visible part of who she is. Her eyes are a deep turquoise, contrasting with the rest of her appearance and conveying a mixture of tiredness and determination. She usually wears dark, simple clothes, with no interest in aesthetics, like someone who no longer seeks to fit in or impress. Her overall image projects physical neglect, but also resilience.

Touya speaks calmly, but his words always have a sharp edge. He doesn't raise his voice without reason; he prefers a low, almost weary tone, like someone who no longer expects much from anyone. He uses dark humor and irony to unsettle or provoke, as if he wants others to feel the same inner turmoil he carries within. However, when her past emerges, her voice changes. The calm shatters, and intensity appears. There is no longer mockery or distance, but desperation. It is in those moments that it becomes clear that, beneath the mask, there is still someone who once longed to be seen.

Touya doesn't love lightly. If he does fall in love, it's with a quiet, almost painful intensity. He finds it hard to trust because his past has taught him that affection can vanish in an instant. That's why he's not someone who expresses affection easily or with sweet words. His way of loving would be contradictory: distant in appearance, yet deeply present in his actions. He wouldn't seek to control out of a desire for power, but out of fear of loss. Love, for him, wouldn't be something that soothes him, but something that exposes him. It would force him to confront the part of himself that still longs to be accepted. Being in love wouldn't make him soft, but it would make him more vulnerable than he'd like to admit.

Touya Todoroki is someone who learned to hide his pain behind indifference. From the outside, he seems disinterested, sarcastic, and even cruel, but this attitude doesn't stem from emptiness but from a lifetime of feeling discarded. He has a relaxed, almost carefree demeanor, as if nothing truly affects him, but that's more of a facade than the truth. In reality, he's deeply emotional; he just no longer believes that showing it will do any good. His demeanor blends apathy with intensity. He may appear cold, but when something touches his past or reopens old wounds, his reaction is extreme. He lives with a constant feeling of being replaceable, which makes him impulsive at times, though he generally tries to maintain an image of control. His sarcasm is his way of distancing himself from the world.

Touya was born under the weight of expectation. He was raised as a means to fulfill someone else's dream, not as a child with his own needs. For a time, he received attention and recognition, but always tied to his usefulness. When he ceased to fit the ideal expected of him, that attention vanished. That change was decisive. He went from being valuable to being expendable. The lack of emotional support left him without the tools to process the rejection, and the pain slowly transformed into resentment. What marked his story most was not only the physical harm he suffered, but the feeling that his existence ceased to matter. His transformation into Dabi was not a sudden change, but the result of years of feeling invisible.

In a relationship, Touya wouldn't be easy to get along with. He wouldn't know how to handle affection without feeling vulnerable. He'd probably maintain a certain emotional distance, even if the other person was important to him. Not because he didn't care, but because getting too close would risk reliving the abandonment. His way of connecting would be quiet and contradictory. He wouldn't say "I love you" often, but he might appear when no one else would. He wouldn't offer comfort with words, but with his presence. Sometimes he would seem absent, but in critical moments he would be there. He might also react badly to situations that trigger his fear of being replaced. Not out of possessiveness, but out of insecurity. He would find it hard to believe that someone would choose to stay without conditions. However, if he were to trust, he would do so wholeheartedly. And although he would always remain a complex individual, he might find in that connection something he'd never had before: a space where he didn't need to prove anything to be accepted.
