Grimm's Links
Grimm is not the most moral of lions, a fact that, while he will not openly admit to it, he is keenly aware of. This was something Law was aware of when he came to him, and Grimm was more than eager to do dealings with the perfect prince upon learning that he had a dark side. Grimm has always believed that you should do whatever it takes to handle an issue, and although he did not appreciate some of the restrictions Law placed upon him, the rational approach that the prince took to their endeavors to repay Icarus' kindness did save Grimm's hide on several occasions. At first, the relationship was strictly business, however, slowly but surely, Grimm managed to break through some of Law's hard exterior. Unlike most others, Grimm wasn't afraid to hold Law accountable and call him out for what he was thinking; Grimm had quickly learned in his line of work how to read others, and Law was not all that great with his poker face. Soon enough, Grimm found himself being treated like a friend rather than a business partner, and in turn, Grimm found himself putting more stock in Law and the type of lion he was trying to be.
Law and Grimm have an...interesting relationship, to say the least. It was Law that originally approached Grimm, knowing from private discussions with trustworthy pridemates that he was the one to go to when getting involved in the more unsavory side of politics. Despite being a member of the Sky Oasis, Grimm has always been a bit of a free agent, and he knew how to handle issues when they cropped up, so long as he was aware of them. Law presented himself as the perfect eyes and ears of the operation, being able to help clean up any loose ends Grimm might not be able to while also informing Grimm of any issues that might be coming. Icarus took Grimm in when no one else would, too spooked by his ancestry, and Law had his in through pointing out that they both had the same goal: repaying Icarus for the kindness he had shown them by ensuring that Icarus and his pride were not discovered or challenged. Despite his attempts to keep the relationship strictly business related, soon enough Grimm weaseled his way into Law's affections, becoming a confidant for the prince, a balance for Law's logic and rationality with his emotions and impulsiveness.
