Passing the Time

Summary:

A little list of headcanons for being in a queerplatonic relationship with Tomura Shigaraki.

Initially written for Tumblr.

Written in bullet point form.

Work Text:

  • Tomura loves sending you clips from his favorite streamers. He’ll send you VODs with time stamps or highlight reels if they’re funny enough.

 

  • You’re not fully sure if he’s aware of it, but Tomura hums when he’s deep in thought. You can sometimes recognize the tunes as being from video games he’s shown you or the intro music to his favorite analysis YouTube channels.

 

  • When his hair gets long, you help him brush through it. The feeling of the pull of the hairbrush really isn’t a nice thing for him, so you spend your time with knots, slowly working with them so as not to pull too hard. He doesn’t want to cut it too short since he likes the way it makes him feel covered.

 

  • Tomura is very caring with animals and insects. He’ll always put insects outside instead of killing them. One time, he was trying to get a small spider out of the sink and it fled down the drain. He didn’t want you to use the sink so he left a note explaining the situation and why he left a makeshift paper towel ladder for it in the sink. You were surprised to see that the spider had actually climbed out using the little ladder, and so you sent him a picture of the spider so he could come and take it outside. He was so excited that his idea worked.

 

  • He likes watching TV. He can be kind of picky as to what he wants to watch though. His favorite shows involve creation and sciences. He really enjoys old Mythbusters reruns and home renovation shows, but he gets surprisingly wrapped up in the drama of cooking shows. He’s not a fan of Gordon Ramsay though. The yelling is too much.

 

  • Tomura loves ice cream. He finds a lot of chocolate ice creams to be too rich, but fruity flavors are really nice. His favorite ice cream flavor is graham cracker.

 

  • The two of you don’t actually have a lot in common in terms of your favorite music, but you’re both open to each other and will go back and forth playing songs when taking long trips together.

 

  • Tomura has a tendency to stretch out his clothes, not from being worn, but from him pulling at the fabric when he gets particularly nervous. He has a couple of old shirts that he keeps to fidget with.
