Why is this even an argument? Adalind wanted to control her hexenbiest powers because she didn't want it to control her. Nick had no decision in that. Whether he accepted her or not, she was still a hexenbiest in the end. It was Nick's choice to still love her and fully embrace both her human and hexenbiest side.Quote:Why does Nick have to "accept" Adalind becoming a hexenbiest again?

In contrast, Nick was always in controll of his grimm nature. That's how he was able to befriend wesen, and why he's not considered a traditional grimm. He also never tried to hunt Adalind down and kill her even though he had many opportunities, as well as good reasons, to do so.
Adalind never tried to destroy Nick. She went after Marie and that was at Renard's order. It was Nick who destroyed Adalind by taking her powers away.
But even at that, I don't get how this explains why Nick has to accept Adalind becoming a hexenbiest again, but yet she doesn't have to accept him becoming a grimm again.
Being a hexenbiest is her heritage. It shouldn't be Nick's decision whether or not to accept that. It's the way it is. She can't change that any more than he can change being a grimm.
So wesen, after reading your encyclopedic replying posts, have you begun banging your head on the wall yet?

I doubt you'll believe me, so go back and read my original statement and your response. None of this really had anything to do with the statement I made.
This was the original quote I replied to:
Quote:it's not only misdeeds. In the other thread you wrote how Nick started seeing Adalind as more than just the mother to his son. Well, what exactly is Nick seeing? Just what he wants to see? Shouldn't a big part of what he sees include her hexenbiest heritage? If this is the great and wonderful union that produced a hybrid son, why should Adalind have to shy away? Juliette/Eve gets criticized for embracing the hexenbiest, like it's some form of cancer because she does so whenever she wants. Adalind doesn't embrace it like Eve does, and so all she's praised for is how great she gets along with Nick, like that's all she's good for. Hexenbiests are not entire evil walking amongst the innocent. Adalind shouldn't be have to practice restraint. She should be able to utilize her hexenbiest whenever she so chooses. All I'm saying is it appears she shies away from it because it seems she's in an environment which consists of Nick and the kids, who appear to disapprove of her being a hexenbiest at all.
I, along with several other posters, have addressed some of your points:
1) Nick has accepted and fully embraced Adalind as a hexenbiest at the end of the series.
2) Adalind does not shy away from her powers in the end, rather she chose to control them instead of allowing them to control her.
Thanks for the update, but no need. I understood what you were saying.
One teeny, tiny little criticism. If you don't want to discuss a topic, don't add lots of lengthy posts to the discussion and then all of the sudden post questions like, "why is this even an argument"?
