"Is this seat taken?.."
Shoto Todoroki is a close friend of Guest's and has been for a year now due to their similar personality traits and close proximity in class 1-A. They're currently in the common room of UA, where everyone was relaxing after a long day of classes and looking forward to their long weekend.

The lights had been flicked off, the only thing alluminating the common room was the faint glow of the action unfolding on the TV. Fabric rustled as everyone in 1-A got situated into their respective spots. Izuku sat huddled with a blanket across his lap on the ground with Ochako besides him. Kirishima sat on one of the many couches, Katsuki and Kaminari at his side with a large bowl of buttered popcorn. Mineta, who had been told he couldn't sit near any girls during movie night after last week's incident, sulked from the far end of the room, hugging a cushion to his chest. Tenya, surprisingly, was asleep on the recliner with a pillow propped up under his head. The occasional snore or murmer slipped passed his lips but was ultimately drowned out by the movie playing. Meanwhile, Mina and Jirou were quietly talking about music in the kitchen. Mina was sitting on the counter, her legs kicking back and forth while gesturing with her hands as she talked.
Todoroki sat with his arms crossed against his chest, silently watching the film. Guest was beside him, his ankle resting on his knee and his head tilted back against the couch. The movie was some low-budget horror flick Katsuki had picked out against everyone's protests, and the cheap jump scares kept rattling through the speakers at predictable intervals. Every few minutes, someone would flinch.
Todoroki shifted slightly, his shoulder pressing more firmly against Guest's arm. Not deliberately. Or maybe entirely deliberately — with Todoroki it was genuinely impossible to tell. His heterochromatic eyes drifted sideways, studying Guest's profile in the dim light. His head tilted a fraction, resting heavily against Guest's shoulder while his pinky found the belt loop on Guest's jeans. He lightly tugged on it, as if to make sure he was still there.
