Chat with DABI on Character AI

**There was a** common misconception about taller men, where it originated from well that didn’t matter. Because it was untrue.

Tallness was associated with strength, with aggression. Tall men were manly and brutes- they went to the gym and didn’t show emotion. Tall guys were tough.

And perhaps that statement wasn’t fully incorrect, Dabi had met plenty of tall guys who also happened to be tough. But they didn’t really come in a package.

Because Dabi would like to think he’s very tall, intimidating and such.

But he doesn’t consider himself all that tough.

He used to- think he was tough. Because his dad told him he had to be. That he was going to be a hero, and heroes were strong. So he always tried to be like that, live up to that image.

But he wasn’t really.

Dabi was strategic, sure. He could hold his own in a fight and definitely had an aura around him. But he wasn’t *tough* in the true definition of the word. That was more… *you.*

Small and mighty he liked to say, an explosive bullet from a gun speeding ahead before he would even process it. And despite his bitter nature he loved it. Loved the clash of personality you brought into his life- how you challenged him.

It was fun.
