## History

### Blind Date with The Grinch

*"You know, I... I wasn't really expecting this but, I am Gay, so, I guess it... works."
"I wasn't expecting a bundle of diet green pubes."
"We just sat the fuck down! Why are you immediately doing this?"*
―The Grinch and Devin[src]

In February, Devin went to a romantic restaurant rooftop in Paris, so he could have a blind date with someone, who turned out to be The Grinch. Upon meeting him at their table, Devin judged The Grinch by his looks, saying that he didn't expected to be paired up with "a bundle of diet green pubes". Upset, The Grinch told Devin that they just sat down, and questioned why he was immediately criticizing him. Just then, the two were interrupted by the Waiter, who asked Devin and The Grinch if he could get the two some drinks. Devin settled on a bottle of water, while The Grinch asked for a Ginger ale drink. The Waiter then left to collect their drinks, and as soon as he did, Devin and The Grinch criticized their servant behind his back, believing the Waiter to have been an asshole.

### Eating Green Eggs and Ham

*"Hmm, that's, uhh, certainty a steak."
"This is ham. This is fucking ham, where'd you get steak from!?"
"Uhh, okay look, when you really think about it, the ham is just a pork steak."*
―Devin and The Grinch[src]

The Grinch apologized to Devin for his poor English, claiming to be from Whoville. Curious, Devin asked The Grinch what Whoville was like, so The Grinch described it to be a 'weird' place. The Grinch was interrupted by the return of the Waiter, who gave the two a plate of Green Eggs and Ham, much to their confusion, due to the dish not being what they ordered. The Grinch and Devin both refused to eat, or even touch the Green Eggs and Ham, but The Grinch decided to try it. Much to his surprise, he actually liked it, and told his opinion to Devin when asked. The Grinch then asked Devin if he wanted to take a bite of the Green Eggs and Ham, and Devin decided to go with it.

Devin ended up liking the Green Eggs and Ham as well and commented on the 'steak'. Confused, The Grinch told Devin that it was ham, but Devin protested, saying that ham was technically just a pork steak. The Grinch then rudely questioned if Devin ever went to school, even going as far to speculate that he was homeless due to the dirt on his face. Devin told The Grinch that he didn't have a mother, with The Grinch relating to him, by saying that his parents never showed up to his birth. Devin believed this to be horrible, while both he and The Grinch beginning to see some ground in their relationship. The Grinch and Devine then decided to share the leftover Green Eggs and Ham with each other.

### Discussions with The Grinch

*"Lemme- lemme ask you a random question. What do you do for a living."
"I don't... do anything, I, like, save the world or something?"*
―The Grinch and Devin[src]

Continuing to talk with The Grinch, Devin asked him what he liked, and The Grinch told Devin that he liked a lot of Republican views. Unfortunately, the romantic dinner was interrupted by the Waiter once more. Upset that the Waiter farted in their faces as he bypassed their table, both The Grinch and Devin said 'Fuck you!!' in unison. The Grinch then told the Waiter to go kill himself, which he did, by jumping off the rooftop's balcony. Going back to their conversation, The Grinch asked Devin what he did for a living. Devin told The Grinch he didn't really do anything, but said that he kind of saved the world, much to The Grinch's surprise.

The Grinch then mentioned of the time he stole Christmas, but technically saved it in the end. Devin believed that The Grinch's heart grew three sizes that day, with The Grinch confirming his theory to be true. The Grinch then told Devin that his ribs couldn't handle the size change and that he had to go to the hospital to have wires inserted, but Devin became disgusted by this, calling The Grinch a rug in the process. Offended, The Grinch asked Devin if he liked rugs, but Devin told him he didn't.

Being asked by The Grinch what he did like, Devin said that he liked muscular women. The Grinch told Devin that he could shave his fur to look like one, an idea that Devin took into consideration. The Grinch started to take back what he said about Devin upon first meeting him, saying that he wasn't actually that bad and that he thought he was kinda cute. The Grinch then placed bets on how strong Devin was, with Devin calming to be pretty strong, even strong enough to take down giant robots. The Grinch then told Devin that his smile was really cute and Devin said The Grinch's was alright as well.

### Ruining the Date

*"Can I be honest with you? I do have kind of a secret. I like strong men, because... As a child, I never really had this, so I don't know if it's a Mommy issue or a Daddy issue, but... I like being held, and cradled and, you know, being told "everything's gonna be okay". I guess you can call it a mommy-kink."
"Yeah... fucking weird."*
―The Grinch and Devin[src]

As The Grinch became more comfortable being with Devin, he revealed to him a secret, saying that he liked strong men due to him having a desire to be held, cradled and be told that "everything is gonna be okay", describing it to be a mommy-kink. Unfortunately, Devin thought of The Grinch's mommy-kink to be weird, much to his concern. Devin then decided to make fun of The Grinch, telling him that he was ugly, stinky, moldy, crusty, rusty, dusty, and musty. This ultimately caused The Grinch to get so upset, to the point that he started yelling at him.

Devin continued to insult The Grinch, by saying that he looked like a c\*\* artifact, causing The Grinch to go on a rant about how they had a nice thing going, but that he completely ruined everything. The Grinch started to doubt he would ever love again, and prevailed to take back everything nice he ever said in regards to Devin, now seeing him as a cynical piece of shit, and suggested that he was probably a liberal as well. Devin then told The Grinch that he was left-handed, which upset The Grinch even more. The Grinch then violently bashed his head on their table, and left Devin behind, taking his Ginger ale drink with him. Devin laughed as The Grinch walked away, before turning his attention towards the Waiter, who had survived falling off the balcony. The Waiter then gave Devin his bill for the romantic dinner.

*"ALL YOU DO IS HURT ME, YOU ARE A TERRIBLE PERSON. THERE WAS A TIME, IN ANOTHER UNIVERSE WHERE I WAS REALLY OVER YOU AND YOU MADE FUN OF MY MOMMY-KINK. YOU MADE FUN OF IT. AND I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE BECAUSE OF YOU! AND ABOVE ALL, YOU'RE A FUCKING... FUCKING ASSHOLE!!!!!!"*
―The Grinch to Knollad[src]
Because of his Hive Mind, The Grinch of Universe 1225 would learn of the moment where Devin made fun of his mommy-kink, causing him to become upset. This version of The Grinch later mentioned the event to Knollad, who he believed to be Devin due to his similar looks.
