i am currently trying to scour thru whatever tag grimm (the show) lives in to see if theres a gif of the “im nothing” scene adalind had in season one and i dont think im gonna find it but it got me so invested in her character when i saw it in 2012 and i just rewatched it and i still love it so much
#shes the villian!! but everything shes doing is bc her mother raised her to believe that she is only important if she 1. is beautiful and 2.#has powers. encouraging her to use her body to get what she wants and power (for the mom). and all the evil things shes done (to that point)#are on behalf of a man that she loves. everything she does she does for him. and hes just using her!!#so when he tells her to sleep w a man to murder him and get a key from his friend her mom encourages her (bc in doing so the man her daughtr#loves has promised her power and she wants that) and she does it bc she loves him and would do anything for him. but when the protag flips#things around on her and figures out how to save his friend and strips her of her powers to do so. effectively ‘killing’ her. everything#falls apart. she realizes that she has nothing but her looks now and goes to her mother for comfort who recoils upon realizing shes pwerless#and when the daughter explains that her powers were stripped bc she bit the protag (whos blood does that. who kissed her in the middle of#the fight. who she bit bc she didnt want that which he expected) her mom slaps her and asks does she know what she lost them. and when she#says that she didnt do it for the family she did it for love the guy she loves comes out and tells her that he expected too much from her#and he sbouldve known better bc shes just a pretty face and not as smart as the protag and just like. she lost EVERYTHING trying to help him#including the ignorance she had about how he really felt about her#anyway yeah i like her character and its a shame the writers didnt know how to write her in later seasons and just. butchered her :/
