Grusha Headcanons
I am working on some fics for various fandoms but I wanted to share some headcanons for my favorite gen 9 gym leader. Please don't take these too seriously--I just wanna be creative.

my man.
Grusha's love language is quality time. After becoming his friend, he likes when you use your free days to sit outside the gym and watch his battles. The mountain gets lonely, so when Grusha gets closer to you, he asks you to snowboard/ski with him.
Grusha still makes time to snowboard but is self-critical about himself since he cannot ride with the same skill/intensity as before the accident.
He uses his scarf to hide his emotions. He hides his frustration for his snowboarding or a lost battle, just as he hides his flushed cheeks when he is around you.
Grusha keeps his hair long because long hair is popular with the other snowboarders. Plus, he thinks it makes him look cool. (He is so pretty.) His natural hair color is brown but he finds it to be plain, so he dyes it a light blue with his yellow and dark blue accents.
Conveniently, Grusha always seems to pick the day before your visits to make sure to touch up his roots. He often catches a flying cab to Alfornada to have Tulip help with the dye.
Grusha’s Cetitan will force its way free from its pokéball to prevent Grusha from wiping out on the slopes.
Grusha has a charming smile, but he doesn’t show it often, usually only letting out a small smirk. He sometimes lets his full smile shine when making a good play in battle or receiving an unexpected compliment.
He lives in an apartment above the sushi place in Montenevera. While he admires his elder gym leader, Ryme’s concerts occasionally keep him awake.
