⚠️ CW: Warnings for trauma and mentions of past abuse regarding Todoroki's past. They're kind of included in various parts throughout, so if those topics will affect you in any way I recommend you skip this one. 

_-*-__-*-_

A = Affection (How affectionate are they in day to day life?)

  At first, he wasn't quite sure how to feel about physical affection or any forms of affection really. He has received affection from his mother and Fuyumi, and even Natsuo extended some forms of affection to his youngest sibling. But, he wasn't really sure how to feel about giving it to people other than them. Nevertheless, he grows on it rather quickly. He enjoys hugs, cuddles, and hand holding the most. Todoroki can also show his affection through gift giving. He's a rich boy (and he has a guilty dad who enjoys giving him access to his practically unlimited credit card), so he's prone to showing up with something you'd been talking about wanting to buy and it's even wrapped sometimes. 

B = Best memory (What is the best memory they have with you?) 

  His best memory is when the two of you went together to visit his mom. Her presence alone means a lot to him, and her opinions are something he wants to live by. He talked to his mom and some of her care staff to see if it was alright, and, when it was, you accompanied him to the room. Overall, it turned out to be a lovely time. You talked a lot to Rei about your own time at UA, why you were there, and even some stuff about yours and Todoroki's relationship that the boy had been unwilling to share. He tried to stifle his embarrassed protests as much as he could to her prying questions. Despite that, he was delighted to see how happy she was while you were there, and she definitely voiced her approval of you the next time Todoroki visited. 

C = Cat or dog person 

  He's never really interacted with either enough to have a preference. However, he does enjoy the presence of Kota's bunny rabbit when it's allowed to roam around the common room. 

D = Dreams (What do they want to do in life?) 

  Even if it was a career that was placed forcefully on him from an early age, he still wants to become a hero. To some extent, he just never really had a chance to explore other hobbies. As a result, hero work just seems like the only suitable thing for him. As he goes through the hero classes, makes friends, and gains experience from hero work, he does gain an interest for the work that is separate from his father's. I think it'll still take him a bit more time into the future to understand specifically what type of hero he wants to be, and if he wants to continue in the spotlight. 

E = Evenings (How do they spend their evening?)

    Unlike most of the other Class 1-A students, he doesn't spend his evenings doing further training. Afterall, he's done training day after day and night after night since receiving his quirk. Why would he do more of that when his father isn't around? Instead he does his homework and…. That's about it. He's rather socially awkward, as we've all come to know, so he doesn't quite understand the idea of asking to do stuff with you. He understands dates, of course, and he enjoys whenever you come to his dorm to spend time with him. Yet, he's often inept when it comes to seeking you out for those moments in the evening. Really, if you want to spend time with him in the evening, then you've got to do it yourself for awhile. 

F = First date (What was it like?) 

   The same will be true for most of the other boys I'll be doing headcanons for. Your relationship didn't really start until the dorms were established. Which meant, your first date was kind of odd. For the sake of this scenario, it was while the two of you were off of campus for hero work studies. The hero you were working with was rather extroverted and jumped at the opportunity when you two ran into Endeavor, Ryukyu, and your classmates accompanying them. Quickly, they offered to take everyone out to dinner and that led to your first date. The older heroes got a seperate table which left Uraraka, Bakugou, Midoriya, Tsuyu, and Nejire at one table. And, by some weird twist of fate, the table wasn't big enough for all of you so Todoroki and you shared one of your own. Nothing was really super special about it, you two talked about many of the same things you discussed together usually. You may have internally freaked out the whole dinner over the fact that you were boring your half and half crush across the table. In reality, you weren't and the other boy was just itching to finally ask you out the whole time.
