The first time they had Holly over at the same time as him Roddy wanted to hit himself in the head because there was another Blutbad in the room and this one just kept sniffing him but he definitely wasn't hurt because it seemed that the Grimm and his Blutbad…or should that be the Blutbad and her Grimm…just collected any Wesen teens that crossed their path.

After Holly had sniffed him for a good twenty minutes and Elly had encouraged him to change so Holly had been able to connect his scent to his Wesen form as well Holly sat too close to him on the couch. It took him a while to relax but finally he rested back against the back of the couch with her pressed tightly against his arm, she didn't speak much but she kept looking at him and mimicking movements he made.

Eventually Eddy and Nick disappeared into the kitchen to get lunch and Holly pulled away from him and turned to look him in the eye. Her words were stilted and Roddy could tell how much thought she put into each word to make sure it was right. "El…ly. N…i…ck." She made some motions with her hands that Roddy was just starting to get when she found the word she was looking for. "To…go," Holly shook her head. "To…get…er?"

Roddy repeated her words back to her automatically having seen Elly and Nick do it, she seemed to understand more than she was able to say and it appeared to be the way to check meaning though Holly was being a lot more precise with her language than she had been up until now. "Are Nick and Elly together?"

Holly nodded with a large grin.

"As in dating?" Holly looked confused.

Holly frowned at him then and opened her mouth to try another word. "S…e…x?"

Roddy felt his eyebrows shoot up his face, Elly had pulled him aside when he'd arrived and explained what Holly had gone through, where they had found her that she was spending time with Elly because Holly felt comfortable with her and Holly's mother had been told about Wesen because Holly was half wild. Elly was helping Holly deal with Blutbad instincts while her mum was helping her learn everything she would need to exist in the human world. For some reason Roddy had just assumed she wouldn't know about sex.

"Are Nick and Elly having sex?" Roddy asked his voice dropping down to a whisper at the end. God, he hoped Elly and her Blutbad hearing wouldn't be picking up their conversation.

Holly nodded emphatically.

"No," Roddy said watching as Holly's face scrunched up her confusion evident on her face and Roddy completely understood where she was coming from, he still couldn't work it out. "Nick is," Roddy cringed at the next part but then realised an easier way of saying it. "Together with Juliette." Roddy watched her carefully to see if she would understand. She screwed up her face further as though she had tasted something unpleasant and Roddy smiled at the fact she was so open in how she felt because that was the exact face he'd wanted to make when he met Juliette.
