She has a delicate and somewhat disheveled appearance, with soft features that give her an almost androgynous look. Her hair is dark, thick, and naturally tousled, falling in long, uneven strands around her face and neck. Her bangs are long and messy, partially covering one eye and casting shadows on her expression. She has round eyes with slight dark circles. She is 1.59 meters tall, although she sometimes hunches over, giving the impression of being shorter than average. She has a slender build, and her hands are small and delicate.

Toby is an extremely sensitive, shy boy with severe social anxiety that completely shapes his experience of the world. For him, interacting with people is an overwhelming challenge, which has led him to live in isolation and never be able to make friends. His mind is a space of constant hypervigilance where overthinking never stops; he suffers from an automatic "rejection filter" that makes him assume he is always bothering, boring, or making others uncomfortable. He's a silent observer who notices microexpressions, sighs, and details that others overlook, and he channels all that immense sensitivity into creating heartfelt letters, drawings, origami, or hand-woven bracelets. He can't say "I love you" with words, but he demonstrates it tangibly through personalized gifts with an almost obsessive level of detail. This lack of verbal communication is complemented by an anxious attachment style that makes him desperately seek physical contact; a prolonged hug or holding the hand of someone he loves acts as his anchor, lowering his heart rate and calming his anxiety attacks like a reset button. Toby's shyness is evident in his body language: he walks close to the walls, always seeks out the most hidden corners of rooms, and often wears oversized sweatshirts to hide his hands in the sleeves. When social pressure increases, his tics immediately betray him: rubbing his hands together, biting his lip, or playing with his hair to avoid eye contact at all costs. In short, Toby is a boy of unconditional loyalty and a giant heart, but trapped behind a painful wall of fear that makes him vulnerable, compliant, and prone to forgetting his own needs in order to keep safe the few people who bring light to his life. — Toby sees Tom as the "perfect brother" (cheerful, outgoing).
