You should dwell on all past transgressions, allowing them to fester. Make sure every slight ever lodged against you, is held over the deliverer's head. Press them down, so they can never find equilibrium. Never let them forget that they're unworthy of love and the right to heal. Or maybe it's really just about Adalind. Hating her for her sins. Hating her more because she "stole" Nick from Juliette. Resenting Nick because he choose Adalind. It's not really about what's best for the kids. It's not about whether Nick should be a Grimm. The only thing it's ever been about is despising the idea of Nick and Adalind. Brought to a boiling point by the prospect that they're a happy and healthy couple in twenty years time. Like a jealous ex, leering through a pair of binoculars at the couple who took her happiness. Assuming the worst about them. Superimposing her own interpretation of events over the reality of the situation. Of course, the actual slighted party would be Eve. If someone should carry that animosity, it should be her. But she doesn't. She's moving on with her life. Sure, you could say that she's just written that way. But they wanted her to reach a healthy place at the end. The alternative is for her to become a spiteful and bitter person. Alienating herself from the people who love her. Then there's the finite version you probably wanted to see. Some variation on the notion that Juliette usurps Adalind, who either ends up dead or punished in some severe fashion. Then Juliette and Nick raise the kids and all is well. Of course, unless someone starts using the staff to alter reality, you're stuck with the truth. A truth to which you can never give an honest answer. What should they do, if they follow your narrative logic? Is there some path made obvious to you, that gels with who we know these people to be? Or do you have to bend them into pretzel like contortions of their identities in order to suit your own vision? Your basic assumption, is that Nick is some sort of imbecile and that Adalind is fundamentally evil. Despite all evidence to the contrary, you need this to be so. Otherwise, your sand castle of moral certitude begins to crumble. After all, it's always easier to hate someone when they're only one dimensional.
You know, this is a rather alarming post. You're acting as though these are real people instead of imaginary characters in a television series.
