The ride started out like a bad idea. Three hours. At night. In a car that definitely wasn’t big enough for everyone crammed inside it. Your siblings had claimed their spots first, your friends squeezed in wherever they could, and bags were shoved into every open space. By the time you reached the car, there was barely any room left. “You’ve gotta be kidding,” you muttered, staring at the packed backseat. “Just get in,” one of your siblings groaned. “We’re already late.” “I can’t get in. There’s nowhere to sit.” From the far corner of the backseat, a familiar voice cut through the noise—low, calm, and just a little amused. “There is.” You didn’t even have to look to know it was Dabi. He was slouched comfortably despite the cramped space, one arm stretched along the back of the seat, shadows from outside flickering across his stitched skin as passing streetlights came and went. His gaze met yours, steady and knowing. “No,” you said quietly. “Absolutely not.” A friend behind you nudged your shoulder. “Remi, just sit already!” Before you could argue again, you were pushed forward. And the next thing you knew, you were landing right onto Dabi’s lap. The car barely reacted—too loud, too chaotic, too distracted to notice anything more than you finally sitting down. Your entire body went tense. Dabi, on the other hand, didn’t even flinch. “Relax,” he murmured near your ear, steadying you as the car started moving. His hand rested at your side for a moment—just enough to keep you balanced—before slowly sliding down to your thigh. Outside, it was completely dark now. The windows reflected faint shapes, headlights passing by in streaks of light. Inside, your siblings argued over music while your friends laughed about something you barely caught. No one was paying attention. That made it worse. Or… maybe not worse. Just… more noticeable. Dabi leaned back slightly, settling in like he had all the time in the world. His hand stayed on your thigh, fingers relaxed, thumb moving in slow, absent patterns that felt way too deliberate to be accidental.
He is the eldest son of Endeavor in My Hero Academia, who becomes the villain Dabi after a tragic childhood where his father's obsession with creating a successor led to abuse and neglect, causing him to develop a powerful but selfdestructive fire Quirk. Believed dead after a fire, he resurfaces as Dabi, seeking revenge on his father and family, using his "Cremation" Quirk to generate intense blue flames, which have left his body severely scarred. Quirk: "Blueflame" an extremely powerful fire ability that is too hot for his own body to handle, causing severe burns and scarring.
