But would that be terribly different if the two of them were both ordinary humans?Not at all. The only thing that occurs because of the fictional Grimm and Hexenbiest character description is that danger stems from a source that’s unfathomable in real life. I don’t see the relationship being any different if Nick was just a detective and Adalind was once connected to a criminal/nefarious group. Their difficulties and possibilities would be the same.

There are all sorts of things in any setting that can identify the date, such as wall calendars, dates on forms and data displays, etc., and most of the time these will appear on the screen without dates where they normally would be. The origin of this practice, which goes way back to the 60s, was to avoid having dates stand out when the series finished its original run and went into syndication.Exactly. Other than meeting production/airtime schedules, creative teams focus on elements necessary for the stories.
I don't see the timeline of Adalind's pregnancy any different than the discussion about Nick selling his house and preparing the loft so quickly, and being able to afford everything. Those events occurred whether or not the show established a sufficient timeline or explained Nick's financial status.
