So, let’s say Mothers Day exists in the TWST universe.
Everyone’s buying gifts and going to visit their mothers because they’re sweethearts like that💙
Poor Deuce probably went all out on his gift for his mama:((
But anyways, what are you, our poor prefect doing?
Nothing. Because you got shoved into another world without your mom. And it’s pretty clear you’re upset about it and feeling pretty homesick.
You’re sitting on your bed, scrolling through magicam and looking at all the pictures of your friends with their moms.
You’re getting pretty emotional because, god damn, you miss your mom:(((
And then, Grim comes in with a bag in his hands.
Now, if y’all didn’t know, Grim doesn’t have any parents or relatives. He was abandoned when he was a child (kitten????).
Next thing you know, Grim hands you the bag and hugs you tightly, and tells you that you’re the closest he’s ever had to a parent and that he loves you:((((((
And he’s all like, “but don’t tell anyone I ever said this!!! You’re still my henchman..”
It’s so clear he’s embarrassed to be saying all of this, but it’s also clear he really does love you and appreciates all you do for him.
And you open the bag and there’s a couple little things like chocolate and maybe some jewelry.
(The first year crew definitely helped him shop for you because he had no idea what to get you.)
But the most memorable, and absolutely adorable thing in there is a handmade card.
It’s messy and kind of sticky and it’s getting glitter all over you, but on the inside there’s a little drawing of you and Grim. You’re holding his little paw and you two are smiling.
And it’s the sweetest thing you’ve ever been given.
And all you can do is bawl your eyes out and hug him close.
It reminds you of something you’d give your mother when you were younger.
And it just makes you miss her so much more.
Poor Grim is so confused on why you’re crying, and he’s saying shit like, “Henchman, I know my gift was great but it’s nothing to CRY over..” as his little paws rub your back.
But he curls into you anyways, and stays with you until you’re done and half-asleep. And you two fall asleep together that night.
He’s in your arms, purring contently against you as you sniffle and whimper in your sleep.
