Spoilers for the Grimm Finale

You've been warned.

These are my thoughts on the end, including questions, and headcanons.

I seriously cried. Like 100% CRIED when everyone was dying, but, from my earlier times watching the series, I had already googled their fandom wikis to see if they died at any point and the wikis said they were alive, so I knew they'd survive EVENTUALLY. I knew they'd come back.

That didn't stop me from crying. ESPECIALLY with Rosalee and Monroe, when Rosalee smiled at Monroe and he was trying to sob and then Nick came over and held Monroe's hand as he died and that SCREAM oh my GOD.

Thank GOD for Mama and Auntie Burkhardt/Kessler because Lord knows Nick is 100% ready to sacrifice the world for his family.

When everything was fixed and Nick was hugging everybody and he said "—what it felt like to lose everyone I've ever loved—my family—" When I tell you I BALLED MY EYES OUT.

Diana is the BEST character ever, and the fact that she remembered and told Eve "you're a hexenbeist again" And Eve's reaction of "... Again???" And Diana looks at Nick and she smiles "he's gone. He didn't come through. He's dead" Or whatever she said and Nick just crouches down and hugs her.

When he hugs Hank and Wu I'm pretty sure that's the ONLY time we see him hug them (or anyone except for Rosalee, Juliette, Adalind, Trubel, and Monroe), which just shows how much they meant to him and how he officially said "fuck you" To not expressing how much his friends mean to him, because you KNOW watching them all die made him regret ever not telling them how much he loves them and not appreciating them while they were there, so you KNOW Nick was telling them "I love you" Every chance he got after that, and no one was complaining.

To the epilogue thing: was the entire story just Kelly writing down his father's history? And Diana said "mom and dad are waiting for us" Does that mean she calls Nick "dad"? Or does Kelly call Renard "dad"? Or both?

The TRIPLETSSSSS??? It's canon that they all grew up to be Friends??? Do Diana and Kelly call Monroe and Rosalee "aunt and uncle"? Do they consider themselves cousins? Do Wu and Hank have kids that they also grew up with? Is "aunt Trubel" A thing?

What about Bud? Did he and his family just pack up and leave Portland? Why don't we ever see his family or his kids (unless those kids in s1 that were spying on Nick were his kids)? Do his kids and him and his wife have a place in their life?

What if the next generation, not just the main kids, but the next generation of all wesen in Portland and other places, they all grew up with the legacy of the Good Grimm and his Wesen Family? Less fearful tales to run or kill Grimms, less about their horrifying eyes and blades, more about "when I was a teenager the Good Grimm saved my life" Or "don't run or attack when you see a Grimm, dip your head and they will spare you" Or "I grew up with tales of Grimms, that they'd kill me. The one I met killed my old life and gave me a new one." Just GOD I could go on and on.

The cheeky little grab of the Staff from Kelly, they grew up to be normal siblings with abnormal circumstances. I LOVE IT.

Diana still has her full power, but can she woge? She never needed to woge before, and not all hexenbeists need to woge to use their power, but due to the circumstances surrounding her birth, can she woge? And at that, she's a Princess, the only living descendant from the throne aside from Renard, that we know of. Did Renard take the throne? It was never said what happened to Vienna after the king died.

Also, can we talk about how shitty the Black Claw plot line was wrapped up? I understand that NBC cancelled the show and they had to jump to the end when the show easily could've gotten at least the full last season instead of the 13 episodes it was given. If they had been able to have a full last season it could've been wrapped up nicely. With a bigger show down than the Nick vs Renard fight, and a bigger wrap up than "yea Black Claw's been wiped out" With absolutely no explanation as to how.

What ever happened with those kids from the Peter Pan episode? We should've gotten something because I'm pretty sure they were being recruited to Black Claw or SOMETHING. And we never get answers.

What ever happened to Zuri? Like did Eve kill her trying to get information from her? Did Black Claw put her out of her deaf, blind, and mute misery? It was never explained.

I honestly wish we got a full season because even if it did wrap a little early we should've gotten some cute domestic scenes and a montage of the kids growing up? Like I would've been content if the series officially ended with 21 episodes and the last one could've been like an entire montage of like Kelly's first birthday, the birth of the triplets, Diana's first woge, the triplets first birthday, Kelly becoming a Grimm or whatever he ends up being, Adalind and Nick's wedding, Wu and Hank settling down with someone (or each other), Renard's mother finally meeting her granddaughter, fucking JOSH PORTER showing up as either a Grimm or a Grimm child and almost no idea how to go about raising the child, buying and fixing up the new trailer, their first day at school, telling the children that they can't tell anyone and that Diana can't make things float, Nick teaching them how to defend themselves, Nick learning how to use the Staff, Bud and finally meeting his wife and kids, etc. And then the 20 years later bit.

So I think it's safe to say I'm going to be writing a lot of one shots or just a whole fucking book. Lmk if you want tagged!

𝑪𝑯𝑨𝑹𝑨𝑪𝑻𝑬𝑹 𝑺𝑯𝑬𝑬𝑻 repost, don’t reblog !

𝐛𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐜𝐬 !

FULL NAME.  Nick Monroe NICKNAME. Nicky, blondie, “get out that pun was awful.” GENDER. Genderqueer trans guy HEIGHT.   6′3″ AGE.  42 ZODIAC.  Scorpio-Sagittarius cusp SPOKEN LANGUAGES. English, ASL and PSE, and if the right memories or feelings are triggered a muted form of the gift of tongues which leads to a variety of languages he half knows.

𝐩𝐡𝐲𝐬𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐬 !

HAIR COLOR.  Blond EYE COLOR.   Blue SKIN TONE.   Fair BODY TYPE.  Tall, broad, a mix of semi-muscular and thicc. It does fluctuated depending on his mental state, but currently he’s a healthy type of thicc and tall. Low-key, but high key great hips, legs, and butt. ;)) VOICE.  Just imagine Mark P’s voice. That’s the closest approximation in my head. Not exactly, but almost exactly. Nick’s voice is just a little softer than his . DOMINANT HAND.  Technically he doesn’t have a dominant hand. He’s ambidextrous naturally, so he can use both hands near equally well. But for the sake of ease and convenience, he’s taken to using his right hand. But if he broke his right hand he could easily use his left with very little issue and practice to be legible with it. POSTURE.  His posture is casual. He tends to do a bit of slouching. But the thing to note is it’s because he works in a tattoo shop as an artist. he does a lot of leaning over. He finds it a little difficult to stay in proper posture. Lots of back pain and slouching. But he uses it pretty well and keeps it casual and not sloppy when possible. SCARS.  Very noticeable burn-like lucifer scars on his face and neck, and in patches in other places on him, faded top surgery scars, stab and drag scar on his lower right abdomen, faded self destructive scars on his thighs, and faded stretch marks from having a baby on his hips and such. TATTOOS.  Tattoo of a snake wrapping up his left arm (looks a little like this if I had to pick a size and style comparison, Nick’s is a tiny bit smaller and has some blue color in it, but it’s close X), Alligator thing on his left shoulder (can be compared to this in aesthetic X), a tiny cross tattoo on his right index finger ( X ), this on his left palm ( X ), floral half sleeve on his right arm from his shoulder to his elbow (kinda like this X), 2 carnations on his right shoulder with Sarah and Toby’s name and birth and death years as a tribute to them, anti-possession on his left ankle in blacklight ink. A bouquet of sunflowers up his right calve, actually an undecided leg sleeve on his right leg in general too, undecided sternum tattoo, others in various places I haven’t decided yet. But he’s a tattoo artist, so he’s pretty covered. **note that most of these tattoos aren’t exactly what his look like, they are just the comparisons as close as I can imagine them as someone who can’t draw. BIRTHMARKS.  None. MOST NOTICEABLE FEATURE(S). Tall so like,,, legs for days, very visible burn-like scars on his face, nice eyes, if he’s in a short sleeve shirt and no jacket, tattoos on his arms.

𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐝 !

PLACE OF BIRTH.  Baltimore, MD HOMETOWN. Somewhere in Maryland. SIBLINGS. Three. Technically. Eden Monroe (eldest sister), Lacey Monroe (Older sister), Elijah Harrison (half brother of the same age) [technically all his siblings are half siblings, but he considers his sisters just his sisters regardless of the half. that’s a headcanon for another day.] PARENTS.  Aria Monroe (mom), Robert Monroe (father), Scott Harrison (biological father)

𝐚𝐝𝐮𝐥𝐭 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞 !

OCCUPATION. Tattoo Artist who owns his shop. It’s called INKredible.  CURRENT RESIDENCE. Interaction dependent. But default he’s in New Haven, CT CLOSE FRIENDS. Maya Becker, Kennie Rhodes, Chev, and his tattoo shop co-workers. RELATIONSHIP STATUS. Default single, but verse and interaction dependent. FINANCIAL STATUS. He’s doin�� alright. He can pay his bills and still have a little fun. DRIVER’S LICENSE. Yeah. He has a blue Kia Forte VICES. He’s an alcoholic, but he’s currently on a sober streak, he’s cool with casual weed. It helps him sleep, he also has an on and off bad relationship with sex that he’s working on it. He’s hypersexual and in a bad mental state this can be very visible, so take what you will from that. 

𝐬𝐞𝐱 & 𝐫𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 !

SEXUAL ORIENTATION.  Pansexual. Queer.  PREFERRED SEXUAL ROLE.  Switch LIBIDO. High TURN ON’S. A sense of humor, someone willing to play his games, but in bed laughing, holding his hands, playfulness, biting, roleplaying, sweet or dirty talk depending on atmosphere, confidence, communication. TURN OFF’S.  Disrespect, refusal to communicate wants and needs, bigotry, abuse, intense pain. LOVE LANGUAGE.  Physical touch, and verbal assurances RELATIONSHIP TENDENCIES. Respectful, communicative, affectionate. His general past is being casual. He’s not jealous. In fact if you communicate things to him, he’s an extREMELY OPEN PERSON. But if he’s in a strong relationship he’s very loyal. And he will love you with all of him.

𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐜𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐞𝐨𝐮𝐬 !

CHARACTER’S THEME SONG. I’m So Sorry by Imagine Dragons HOBBIES TO PASS TIME.  Drawing, spending time with friends, watching medical dramas and sci-fi series. MENTAL ILLNESSES.  PTSD, Dissociative Identity Disorder, ADHD, Depression PHYSICAL ILLNESSES. Nut allergy, various phantom pains that he pretends isn’t there, but also Meniere’s Disease. PHOBIAS. Deep cold, the devil, god, butterflies, the dark, losing himself, losing control, losing people he loves, being a disappointment, finding out that nothing is real, deep water, too much blood where it shouldn’t be. SELF CONFIDENCE LEVEL. Outwardly probably a solid 7-10 depending on the day. Inwardly probably closer to a 6 on bad days. He’s very good at putting up a mask of overconfidence. He is healing and having a more solid 7 confidence for real. But it’s taking time.
