ALGOTH

Algoth works in the North faction as 2nd in command. He’s Grimm’s trusted right-hand man.

Algoth has both of his lips painted in his mask.

He usually prefers Grimm as sir, not really using his name.

He likes to do paperwork, and offers often to handle Grimm’s paperwork for him, especially when Grimm is busy.

Algoth is named after a famous 1920′s Finnish smuggler Algoth Niska.

"I'm home!" Grimm calls out as he closes the front door behind him. It's been a long day; he's mentally exhausted. He sighs, takes off his shoes, then heads for the kitchen, where it smells like Pearl is cooking up a delicious meal. "Sorry I'm late. My computer froze up and I ended up having to resubmit all of my paperwork"

"No worries, hunny. I just got back too, like 10 minutes ago because of similar issues."

After she kisses him, he looks past her and notices the takeout boxes spread out on the counter. "Takeout tonight?"

"Yeah?" She looks at him, confused by his surprised tone. "It was delivered right after I got home. I thought you ordered it."

"With how tired I am, I wouldn't be surprised if I did and just forgot because of all the paperwork I had to type up twice."

Pearl gave him a pittying look, then pushed him towards the dining table. "Go sit. I'll bring you a plate."

Dinner is great, especially since neither had to cook it. Afterwards, they curl up on the couch together for some much needed decompressing.

The moment was interrupted by an email from Algoth.

Grimm groans at the notification. "Fuck. I swear, if something happened to the paperwork again..." He opens the email. He glares at his phone. "Sonofabitch."

Curious, Pearl leans over to look at his phone.

INVOICE: $87.36 — — — — — The Bamboo Pantry $32.64 — — — — — — — — Service fee _________________________________________ $120.00 TOTAL NOTES: Happy Retrograde. Enjoy your dinner.

"What...?" Pearl pulls out her phone and looks up an astronomy chart. Mercury recently went retrograde; every other planet is either direct, or has been retrograde for quite some time already. While trying to figure out how Mercury's retrograde would warrant Algoth buying them dinner, something connects in her mind.

Pearl sits upright then intently goes through Mercury's chart, while flipping back and forth between the calender app. "Oh my gods... This totally happens every retrograde!"

"Hmm?"

"We always mess up our paperwork during the Mercury retrograde!" She groans and throws her head back against the couch. "How haven't I realized this before? How did Algoth realize it and not me?"

Algoth, sitting at home enjoy his night, completely uneffacted by Mercury's retrograde—possibly because he plans ahead to counteract any influence, or because Mercury know better than to affect him, or simply can't (who knows?)—smirks as he sees the pending deposit appear in his bank account.

Quickie I've made for my friend when we met

I came face to face with your Grimmgoth (?? right name ??) art not too long time ago. Since then I have not been able to stop thinking this situation if Pearl were to walk in on them, before she and Grimm were married, would she go: 1. "Carry on, boys! I just grab these papers." 2. Dare the boys to continue while she sits and watch 3. Join them

Since you are their "best channel" to communicate, I thought it would be the best to ask from you. Sorry if this is offending or otherwise not pleasant ask! If you reply, thanks in advance! =OuO=

I need to draw more Grimmgoth :D Maybe for the Christmas special?

I can see Pearl doing all those options, depending on her mood. Well analyzed! Maybe for the first time, she just sits there with a smug grin and dares them to continue, while Grimm just wishes the ground would swallow him.

Algoth will join this roasting, naturally.

I was speaking with a reader about Death-Head's Deal and figured out new information! (This is why interacting with you readers is so important to me. I learn new things, too).

Ama and Awa are leading the West mainly by concentrating on the faction's image. Think about high brand businesses and how much work they do with branding. That's how they lead. They have gotten the leadership and 2nd in command positions directly from their father Agnus, after he retired as the West Faction boss. Agnus and Kahamet are friends so Ama and Awa have a close relationship with Kahamet.

Plague and Cure are fucking around and finding out the South faction leadership and 2nd in command. I don't know much about this yet but Plague does not care, everyone in South hates him and Cure is just trying to stay on the surface as a private citizen who knows nothing of Death-Head work. If Plague drowns, he will take Cure with him.

Rena and Dio are a good team but they work a lot individually. Dio cleans any messes in the East and foresees if anything would cause problem to Rena. He will deal with anything that is needed so that Rena doesn't have to trouble herself with that. Rena concentrates on her own job and utilizes Dio's help when needed but otherwise, Rena trusts that Dio can handle his job as the 2nd in command without her input well.

Grimm and Algoth are the best team. They lead North together like a dream team. While North is not that good as an area to live and work, North has the best boss & 2nd in command pair. Algoth works hard to give Grimm room to make deals and Grimm delegates deals to Algoth so that Algoth doesn't have to make or seek deals himself. Both are hard-working and efficient, and Algoth makes sure that all is clean and spotless from every deal, including deals Grimm makes and needs some clean up afterwards.

Algoth would.

I think we're all sleeping on this ship. Does the ship name of Grimm x Algoth turn into Grimmgoth?

Which of the DHD characters would most likely be up reading fanfic all night? Which character has a secret hobby of writing fanfic all night and deeply wishes their friend knew so they could edit their work- unless- their friend DOES know

I really want to say that Rena writes and reads fics. I'd imagine she'd be very open about them.

While Alrick consumes lots of movies and books, he doesn't seem to read fanfics. I wonder if Rena has ever suggested it to him... (maybe she could convince Kizzie....)

Algoth most likely reads the smuttiest, darkest, the most fucked up fics you can possibly find but has not told anyone.
