Headcanon A: realistic

Iruka fidgets a lot with whatever is in his hands. He’ll twirl a pen between his fingers as he’s explaining the chakra pathways to his students or he’ll uncap and recap the pen while reading a report. He also ends up with a lot of marks on his palms, but that’s okay.

Headcanon B: while it may not be realistic it is hilarious

Iruka apologizes to inanimate objects he bumps into. He’ll accidentally hip check a chair and go ‘oh, pardon me’ and casually go about his day not realizing he did it unless someone points it out.

Headcanon C: heart-crushing and awful, but fun to inflict on friends

Iruka keeps his mother’s spirit alive in the little things for a while. Like picking up clothes without his hands, softly greeting every plant in the house, and feeding every stray he comes across. But the most he’s ever felt his mother close by and in his heart is when he stood over Naruto, taking the shuriken and bleeding out of his mouth as he made a silent promise to the heavens that if he couldn’t survive this, Naruto at least would.

Headcanon D: unrealistic, but I will disregard canon about it because I reject canon reality and substitute my own.
