Todd in the Shadows/Heartwarming

• Most, if not all, of his Magfest 2011 Vlog, where he meekly thanks his fans and all the reviewers he met while there. It almost seemed like he was close to tearing up half the time. Aw.
• The end of his joint review of Head with Pushing Up Roses and Paw Dugan, where they sing "Daydream Believer" while Todd plays it on his keyboard. It really cements the image of the TGWTG Team being one giant group of True Companions.
• The little spazflail Todd does in the Top 10 Best Hit Songs of 2010 when he realizes he can use the lyrics from "Nothin' On You" to win Obscurus Lupa over. Though it doesn't QUITE work out...
• In his "Ask Todd In The Shadows" thread, when asked if he likes hugs, he proclaimed himself an "epic hugger". D'aaaaw...
• After Lupa declared on her Twitter that she felt worthless and insignificant, Todd replied: "Yeah, you matter to a lot of people. Whatever else you worry about, don't worry about that." So sweet, especially considering Todd's on-camera relationship with Lupa.
• Also from twitter, is his tweets from on his birthday. He references his sad birthday shown in the Hannah Montana video and says how loved and happy he is this year. He just seems so...very happy with life. Also extra sweet since in-character Todd seems quite a depressed fellow.
  • And after that, any time he mentioned his relationship. (even more when she tweets...)
• After gay marriage equality passed in New York, Todd tweeted, "Gay marriage passed in NY. Against my better instincts, I'm throwing "Born This Way" onto the stereo." And then, immediately after, "And you know what, f**k it, I'm gonna throw it on a second time." Nice to see Todd will be supportive with a song he must be warming up to.
• In the Vlog for Captain America, there's a few times when Todd strokes Lindsay's back and shoulder. It's so sweet, especially with how happy and relaxed in general he looks.
• There's a line in his Glitter review about pretty girls who can sing and live in New York. Apply a bit of Reality Subtext and it's fairly clear who he's talking about.
• This is possibly the most adorable moment between Lindsay and Todd yet.
  • Listen closely at the end, he calls her "babydoll"!
• While filming a scene for the "Give Me Everything" review, Lindsay's pet puppy attempts to chase off Todd after he gets a little too close to Lupa. The three of them find this both hilarious and cute.
• Todd being upset about how the couple from the "Take On Me" music video had their relationship end in the "Sun Always Shines on TV" music video due to the comic book sketch person reverting back into a comic book sketch. He really cared about that couple and was upset about how it ended.
• A record number for Todd in We Are Young/Somebody That I Used To Know. This troper almost shed happy tears at the end. Then there was the cut other songs in the top 5, but it was nice to see Todd, who's had to put up with songs like Sexy and I Know It, finally getting a moment of happiness.
  • Subtle one: Todd spent the majority of the review pronouncing Gotye's name wrong (FYI, it's GO-tee-ay), but at the end, after checking out more of his music, Todd finally gets his name right, showing that he's come to really respect, perhaps even LIKE him.
  • Basically the last 5 minutes were one long Crowning Moment of Heartsome.
