10 Things About Elliot Grayson
[As I have been writing a bit more, I just realized I don't really know much about my own character. Sometimes I struggle with small things, such as habits and reactions towards frustrating situations or anything like that. So, I thought it would be interesting to do some character building once in a while and maybe a good way to start it is by doing the 10 Headcanons thing. So...]
When a dialog lulls, Elliot starts fidgeting. He can never hold anyone's look for too long.
One can easily make him forget any past fights with chocolate chip mint ice cream.
He always manages to mask any of his anxieties, sadness or sorrow with an easy smile. Sometimes his real feelings show up but, hey, he is only human.
He prefers to do free-running at night, when he knows nothing can get in his flying path.
He was dumped by a girl he really liked when he was 15 years old and spent at least three months listening to sappy Ed Sheeran songs.
He always carries at least two Spiderman comics with him (except in critical missions). He is not a comics collector, and most of his books and magazines are all folded and spent by the amount of times he read them.
Elliot tried to play the guitar once. It was awful.
Although he is not afraid of lightning storms, when it rains, he usually sleeps curled up.
When there are group meetings at night, he usually blows in his hands and rubs them, even if it's not cold.
When he is in distress, he twitches his dog tags.
