I didn't wanna spam rb but your hinamatsuri au is making my brain go wheee I love it-

Do you have any ideas for Toya so far?

Hdhah it's completely OK but thank you SO MUCH ;-;; you don't know how happy that makes me!

Toya isn't exactly very developed rn unfortunately, the ideas come to me very randomly and I'm still developing this au

I do know, though, that he's a porcelain doll just like Tenmas, albeit a relatively "newer" one (was crafted a lot later by a different craftsman)

He doesn't have his own spirit like Tenmas, but he can move around as a doll thanks to Tenma's ability to breathe life into toys

He's based off of his hinamatsuri card too

He was the first ever doll that Tenmas saved and the one who made them first realise their purpose of helping abandoned, lost and broken toys

I'm thinking that he might have been found by Emu's grandpa as a little kid thanks to Tenmas, so he's also in the Ootori household. He's the one who helps toys that have been newly found and taken in by the Ootoris settle in and learn how to live (bc they're also alive thanks to tenma magic) while not betraying the fact they can move to the human in the residence

Imagine it kinda like Toy Story

EDIT (AS OF SOME TIME LATER): The concept for Toya's story and toy changed a bit from what I said here by now so don't take this one as canon anymore. You can check the hinamatsuri au tag to see the current concept, it should be posted
