This was a request for a redo of an old gifset I made back before I knew what sharpening and web-DLs were. Definitely much better. THIS is the original.
Ooooo, that’s just not right, lol! Nick and Monroe…the running joke of Grimm. In all seriousness, they make perfect slashbait. I wonder if David and Silas are embarrassed by it. I, for one, think it’s hilarious!
Grimm problem.
I like Rosalie but I feel like she’s mostly there to reaffirm Monroe’s heterosexuality.
Not that it’s working, I still find myself shipping him with Nick more often than not.
Rosalie’s top-notch! She’s cool! But yeah, I see what you mean. I’ve picking up that ole Monroe/Nick vibe too.
I actually made a tumblr for a rant!
I absolutely, truly, adore the show, but god people are pissing me off.
On the Grimm facebook page I keep seeing “He should tell Juliette, she’ll be okay with it!” and I can’t help thinking what-the-actual-fuck-are-you-on-about?
Can someone please…
Lol, as for his “emotional affair” with Monroe, that’s whole other bag of kitten nibbles. If he is, in a sense, cheating on Juliette then the same would hold true for Dt. Hank and to a lesser extent, officer Wu.
Yes, there is a bond between Nick and Monroe. That’s as plain as the mold on a troll’s chin. His friendship with him feels a lot more intimate than with his girlfriend and partner(s). There isn’t anyone Nick can turn to who will understand his experiences better than Monroe. I know that type of male-male bond gets put under the microscope quite a bit (and for reasons, lol, that are kind of silly) but for Nick and Monroe is a necessary by-product of their circumstances. Nick needs a mentor, a guide, someone whom he could divulge his fears and suspicions, and Monroe is that for him. In the meantime, Monroe needs to be a part of a pack. He sees Nick as a friend, a break from the mundane, and a satisfactorily jolt of adrenaline and Nick provides that for him. Somewhere between that, they’ve sort of developed this bond through over relliance on each other and I think that’s going to be difficult for each to break as time goes by. In any case, I think Nick’s friendship with Monroe is a good thing, and if Nick could see his way to explaining why Monroe is so important to him, then I think Juliette would understand. That may not be the case with Dt. Hank and officer Wu, even though both have encountered Nick’s (other partners), but with Juliette, there’s always a possibility.

I completely agree with your argument. If Nick wants to preserve his career, and his relationship with not only Juliette but also with Dt. Hank and officer Wu, it’s best if he kept his Grimm experiences to himself.
Basically, if Nick claimed self-defense after divulging the details of an unreported assault, he will be held accountable for a crime. Under these circumstances, it would be unwise for him or anyone he’s associated with (Monroe) to discuss the case(s), in length, with Juliette and more importantly, with Dt. Hank, officer Wu and especially Cpt. Renard. Although Nick is an officer of the law, he is beholden to Wesson/Grimm interests and if the two conflict, he could be charged and convicted for unreported cases involving the use of deadly force.
Other issues may jeopardize Nick’s career, his friendships with Dt. Hank and officer Wu, and his relationship with Juliette. Those issues include the use of secondary weapons and non-standard issue ammunition. Cpt. Renard already has a bullet casing shell from the firearm used to take down the ogre and if he or anyone else were to obtain access to more unusual weapons and link them to Nick (by way of fingerprints) or by the improper disposal of these weapons, Nick’s career and relationship could also be jeopardized.
Lastly, as you’ve stated, there’s the issue of trust. Nick acted in Juliette’s best interest. He assumed keeping his abilities a secret would keep Juliette out of harm’s way. It didn’t work out as planned. What he instead ended up doing was protecting himself. He didn’t want her to think he was crazy, so he took Monroe’s advice and decided to keep mum. In the meantime, their home was burgularized by an ogre and Nick was assaulted, Juliette ended up being kidnapped by a female dragon and they’ve had several encounters with unsavory Wesson characters. Keeping Juliette in the dark hasn’t helped matters but assuring that she remained armed did relieve the situation slightly. Nonetheless, his decision to keep it quiet has lead to quite a bit of confusion. The thing is, if Nick takes a chance and tells her the truth about himself, he may gain an allie and unfortunately, a very visible target. I’m a little torn about him telling Juliette. On one hand, she could be useful. On the other, she could be his achilles heel. Now that he’s cemented himself as a Grimm to be reckoned with, the liklihood for Juliette to be kidnapped or eliminated increases.
I think the less she knows about him, the safer she is. I also think her odds of surviving increases if she removed from the situation, but that’s something Nick and Juliette will have to decide.
Anyway, that’s my .2 cents for what it’s worth.
Just out of curiosity, has the Grimm fandom come up with ship names?
Specifically, I was looking for Nick/Monroe, but if anyone’s come up with names for the various other ships floating about, I’d like to hear about them :)
Monroe + Nick = MONK or MOCK (shrug)
