This post was conceived after reading @elkhound 's post about Nick having interacted with the tse-tse fly. Two questions and observations re: Nick's hearing and zombieness.
#1: When Nick lost his Grimmness, does it make sense to you that he lost some speed and agility? I don't think the extra cone in Nick's eye would affect his hearing or his agility. I think the extra cone is just one Grimm trait. We've really never seen Nick as a regular human, but I kind of figure he was a bad @ss cop even before he got his Grimm on. Then...BAM...he loses his Grimmness and needs help with everything and is not as good in a fight. Perhaps the writers wanted to make him appear "less than" without his Grimmness?
#2: Do you think other Grimms coming into contact with various Wesen could potentially have affected their "powers" as well? Aunt Marie and Kelly had done their Grimm thing for 30-40 years before Nick was born. The doctor said Marie's body was covered in wounds, but she was amazingly strong and alert for someone who was in the last throes. Also, Kelly could move as silently and as quickly as Spiderman. Wouldn't it make sense to assume each Grimm is a little different based on their Wesen experiences...that they develop some sensory anomalies or powers because of them?
Anyway...just curious what you guys think.
