baby regressor todoroki moodboard + headcanons 𖦹˖˙🧸🍼˖☆

moodboard ⋆✴︎˚｡⋆

headcanons ⋆✴︎˚｡⋆

₊˚⊹ 🍼 shoto is a trauma regressor, and regresses to cope with his past abuse. hes also autistic in my headcanons, and i believe this has a part in his regression as well, but its mainly due to his cptsd

₊˚⊹ 🍼 as stated in the title, shotos a baby regressor! his regression age is 0-1, hes a very teeny little guy! most of the time hes just down for cuddles, naps, watching tv, and playing with baby toys if hes not too sleepy

₊˚⊹ 🍼 he was very closed about his regression at first. originally he believed there was something wrong with him, and he didnt know why he wasnt able to just act his age sometimes. he didnt know why he wanted comfort, and wanted to be held, and needed to suck his fingers to calm down. he didnt know why he couldnt talk, and couldnt think, couldnt be normal. but it was izuku who introduced him to age regression, and told him that thats likely what he was experiencing, and he helped him warm up to the idea of letting himself be cared for, and listening to his instincts. hes not exactly open about his regression. he wont talk about it unless hes asked. but he doesnt hide it, like he used to.

₊˚⊹ 🍼 his main caregivers are fuyumi, izuku, and sometimes katsuki. when at the dorms its mainly izuku, but whenever hes at home, its mainly fuyumi

₊˚⊹ 🍼 speaking of him regressing at home, he absolutely is not able to handle if enji is in the same room. he wont have a breakdown or anything, as a survival mechanism, but he becomes really quiet and will try snd force himself out of his headspace.

₊˚⊹ 🍼 as shown in the moodboard, i associate his regression aesthetic with a lot of light blue. i also imagine him to like “kawaii, modern stuff compared to homey or nostalgic stuff. he doesnt really have a childhood to be nostalgic upon in the first place, so he tends to discover new things he likes, usually more modern kids stuff.

₊˚⊹ 🍼 hes a big fan of miffy. he likes that she has an “x” on her mouth because it makes him feel accepted, because sometimes he is non speaking both due to being very very little, and even when not little due to his autism. so her having an x as a mouth implies she doesnt talk, and shoto finds comfort in that.

₊˚⊹ 🍼 when fuyumi is taking care of him, it reminds her of when shoto was a real baby, and she gets nostalgic and sentimental and emotional, because she missed out on her baby brothers childhood for the most part, and now she feels like she has the opportunity to reconnect with him and make up for lost time. (natsuo feels the same although hes more of just his big brother instead of his main caregiver)

₊˚⊹ 🍼 nicknames he likes include: baby boy, little guy, sweetheart, angel, cutie, and bunny. this, however, does not stop katsuki from calling him icy hot, kiddo, twerp, brat, etc. (affectionately, of course, although shoto glares at him, though at this point hes used to it). izuku likes to call him snowflake.

₊˚⊹ 🍼 he LOVES elsa and frozen. she reminds him of himself

₊˚⊹ 🍼 not a very fussy baby, and much like when hes big he kind of just goes with the flow of things. when hes sleepy hes not fussy moreso as he just kinda starts falling asleep on the spot. hes been left playing or watching shows or doing whatever activity, and his caregiver comes back to find him passed out wherever they left him hehe. be that the couch, the floor, the table, etc.

₊˚⊹ 🍼 he absolutely adores being held. he wont necessarily complain per se if hes put down, unless hes having a bad day, but hell pout, and hell sulk for a bit, and as soon as he sees his caregiver again hes immediately reaching out his arms in the “uppie” position.

₊˚⊹ 🍼 he doesnt use parental nicknames for his caregivers because how he sees it is that he already has parents, and although he doesnt like his dad and has a complicated relationship with his mom, he still has them and doesnt need or want new parents. there was an instance however where he was really tired and fuyumi was rocking him as he fell asleep, and he called out for “mama”. he doesnt remember this, and wouldnt ever consciously do it, but i believe subconsciously he probably sees fuyumi as more of a mother figure than rei not because he hates rei, not at all, but just because hes lived his entire childhood with fuyumi while rei was gone. this made fuyumi really emotional and she pulled him closer.

₊˚⊹ 🍼 i think besides miffy, he likes cinnamoroll, ghibli movies (especially my neighbor totoro), and maybe chiikawa (his favorite would be hachiware).

₊˚⊹ 🍼 he uses a pacifer whenever hes regressed. i think he enjoys deco pacis because theyre sparkly and pretty, and because hes autistic sparkly things make him happy. he would also like just pain regular ones, though, but i like to think shoto has a taste for extravagant things, what with growing up rich and all, haha.
