"Well, we have experience living with each other in the dorms." Ochaco points out, though the house started out a bit more cramped, before Bakugou start with the additions. "This is pretty much the same thing, just a bit cozier."
She takes the seat when offered, turning a bit so Todoroki can't get a good look at what she's holding. "All right, that's enough smalltalk for now. You gonna join me and get your gift or what, Todoroki-kun?"
"We do." He agrees, sitting down next to his classmate. Even if the point is specific, Shoto takes it that way, too.
With a tilt of his head he waits to see what she's gotten him. "Yes." He has done just that of course before he says yes, but it would be impolite to leave her question hanging.
Once Todoroki joins her, Ochaco whips her hands out from behind her back. "Ta-daaaaa!" In her hands is a woolen scarf, folded neatly, in blue and white. "I saw this scarf, and the colours even match your Hero costume. I knew I had to get it for you!" And fortunately was within Ochaco's currently limited means to procure. "It's gotten really cold out, so I figured every little bit helps, right? Here, take it!"
She offers the scarf to him. "But you might wanna be careful when you unfold it!" She replies with a knowing look, implying the scarf might not be all there is to this gift.
Seeing the present in her hands, Shoto studies it for a moment before realizing that yes, it is indeed a scarf. And that yes. He is absolutely thrilled by it. Which translates to Shoto giving a small smile to her. Further that she went through the trouble to match it to his hero costume and it actually would look really good together. He might just have to 1+1 on that and see if he can integrate it for winter. Though, he's instantly worried that if he has to use fire--
He's in the middle of taking it and thinking of the best way to wear and preserve it when her prophecy is fulfilled. Mismatched eyes fall on the impromptu packaging and he unfolds it. He's sure that's the directive here only to see equally helpful gloves on the inside of it. Again his look shifts from the gloves to her and then back again. "Thank you, Uraraka." There's a small sound in his voice that belies the elation that normally he doesn't have in it. Even something like this is one of the most precious things he owns now. "I'll put them both to good use. These were very thoughtful of you."
