Reviews for Grim Tales: Oneshot Collection
Nostalgia Fiction chapter 21 . 9/13
Good to see another chapter oneshot. It's kind of wholesome to know that not even Grim and Mandy find it easy to give "The Talk" to their children. Even though Minnie was already more knowledgeable on the subject than Jr., I believe that the conversation was just as awkward for Mandy as it was for Grim. I like the moments you put in some of your fics that showcase that Mandy isn't completely unflappable and above it all. Yes she's the queen of the underworld and one of if not the most evil person in the multiverse, but she also really likes Krabby Patties, gets horny seeing her husband showcase his powers, still has a fear of figure skaters(or as she puts it, doesn't trust the way they spin), and is.. to be honest... kind of a pervert. It gives her a larger range of character that isn't showcased in the webcomic. I also like the little tease you put in on Mandy wanting to eventually obtain a more cosmic form, a topic that she brought up in Return of the Night of the Living Grim. And of course Jeff would be the one to give Mimi "the Talk"; don't know if it was intentional, but I love the mental image of Jeff trying to convince HIM(his superior) to teach his own daughter about the birds and the bees, only for HIM to go "But I don't wanna!"

Speaking of Mandy, I always felt that it was a missed opportunity for Mandy to be the one openly responsible for the world's destruction instead of HIM. The original series repeatedly implied that Mandy would eventually conquer/destroy the world herself; the episode Mandy the Merciless, on top of being a cool parody of God Emperor Dune, showcased what said future might be like. Big Boogey's Adventure also showcased that Mandy conquered the world in two weeks with Horror's Hand, and Billy went so far as to build a time machine and travel back in time to try and prevent it. I understand that for all intents and purpose, Grim Tales was a sequel to Power puff Girls D, so having HIM be the main antagonist makes sense in that context. But for all of the comic's insistence that Mandy was more evil and dangerous than HIM, I thought it would've fit just as well to have her be the one to destroy the world and its heroes and then build her new empire on top of it. After all, why rule just the Underworld when you can rule it AND Earth. Plus, having Mandy be the one to do it would've made the interactions of Underfist alot more poignant, as most of the members will have more of a connection with Mandy than HIM. Mandy was the one who first recruited them to save Halloween. Also it would've made Irwin standing against her more meaningful too; he may have had a massive crush on her but it wouldn't stop him from seeing all the evil she has done. This concept was also showcased in Mandy the Merciless, were Irwin leads a resistance to defeat Mandy, and doesn't display any desire to win her affection whatsoever. Don't ask how Pud'n, Billy's dad, or Mandy's dad survived for over a millennia. You could've also had Grim play apart in it as well, showcasing how much of an advantage Mandy has having Death as her husband. Maybe it could've been done on Grim's part as a way of getting back on all the heroes for never staying dead. This would've also brought up the situation where the kids have to come to grips with the fact that, "Wait a minute, my mom is evil!" You can still have HIM as an antagonistic force to the Grim Family, maybe out of spite and jealousy for a mortal beating him to the punch. But that's just my gripe with the original webcomic.

This was a fun read. I don't really have any suggestions for characters from the original cartoon to include that haven't already been mentioned. I mean aside from Billy, but he's already in Grim Tales Complex... or rather, was. RIP Billy; just wanted to help his friends. Maybe the kids(including Manny and Danelia)found out their parents used to be apart of the Forces of Dairy Justice( whom they are all secret fans of similarly to Spongebob and Patrick with Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy) and try to subtly get them to come out of retirement. I don't know.
Adro-Sama chapter 21 . 9/12
I really miss this
Lord Razer chapter 21 . 9/12
very good stuff

Good to see you updating again, was a bit worried you gave up altogether (though would understand if you decided too)

also HAHAAHAAHAHAHAHAHAH this was fucking amazing in just the ridiculous of the birds and the bees. goddamm so amazing in just how awkward it is.

also sorry for not responding on the past chapter but maybe for future lemons perhaps: deku/mimi, mimi/Charlie, chi/vaggie? Could see like a political marriage between Kare and Lucifer in marrying off their daughters, an idea for a potential oneshot.

also for past billy and Mandy characters: eris, host del gado, Erwin, puddin, maybe even Mandy's parents.

good stuff as always
Geo Soul chapter 21 . 9/12
Why Not bring In Misses Doolan?
Remzal Von Enili chapter 21 . 9/12
I have a dumb but horrifying idea.

Junior and minnie become warhammer 40k fans.
nightmaster000 chapter 21 . 9/12
Oooh the dreaded talk practically the most awkward thing for a child and parent to go through together.

Really another splendid chapter think as always you captured everyone perfect, and the play out of Minnie and Junior having to be given the talk was great. :)
coldblue2015 chapter 21 . 9/12
Ha! I like this!

It always great to think how Mandy and Grim would give there kids...The Talk. Of course, it just better to let the schools teach them. It super awkward with explaining Sex to kids or finding out they know WAAAAY more about Sex that it is somewhat concerning.

Suicide Squad Team characters idea:

Floyd Lawton/Deadshot would be the leader. The Monarch from "The Venture Brothers" would be a Scout/Rogue character for being pinched/pissing off the Guild of Calamities Intent that he gets thrown into Taskforce X. Father/Benedict Uno from "Codename: Kids Next Door" is the Power Player, where he gets arrested for actually killing children...but the Parents were influence in Politics and actually loved their kids. Dr. Drakken and Shego from "Kim Possible" would be the Science Expert that has Plant Manipulation powers, given that Drakken relapsed and was sent to Taskforce X to work off his Criminal Sentence. Wuya from "Xiaolin Showdown" is the resident Magic Expert/Sorceress and was captured/betrayed by Chase Young. Princess Mandi from "Fairly Oddparents" was arrested and held by Taskforce X for failed Alien Invasion and is other Muscle on the team.

Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy characters to be reintroduced in "Grim Tales: Oneshot Collection":

1. Mindy- We could read what happens to her when she grew up. In "The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy: Underfist", she does become a Witch...There something we could do. Probably even do some "The Owl House" Crossover if you want. Sort of like Mindy have to deal with being a Witch and how that opens up different path for her instead of being a Popular Teenage Girl that destined for something Mediocre. It would be interesting if Irwin...a Mindy/Irwin pairing would be interesting. Probably a more complex Supernatural characters and read a Original character that is Mindy/Irwin children.

2. Sperg- That would be interesting to read...Probably a downer of a story where Sperg can either have interesting life that turns, where each event in his life turns worst and he is nothing but a side-character. Though, I could see Sperg having adventure dealing with random events of Supernatural and Sperg having to survive many possible deadly situations and ends in comedic ways. Sort of like Sperg has to deal with being a Human, while every other character is Supernatural/Super Human/Dangerous.

3. General Skarr- He becomes more grunt/prisoner for his past time as Criminal and possible Dictator to Island Nations. Anyway, General Skarr could be on Taskforce X or probably even General Skarr being a spy for the Heroes when he joins a League of Villains. It would be interesting to read General Skarr try to find peace, but be dragged back into the Hero/Villain lifestyle. Probably cursing Billy and Mandy for dragging him out of his PEACEFUL life and just dealing with the horror's of his past mistakes.

4. Irwin Dracula-...In all honest, he could be a EPIC Hero. It would be great to read Irwin become a Hero that works with Teen Titans or Young Justice or Heroes from different Cartoons. Sort of like a story where Irwin gets OVER his crush on Mandy and transform himself into a EPIC Hero. It would be great to read Irwin train his Werewolf, Vampire and Mystical Mummy powers. Probably even Irwin being inspired to be Hero from Comic Books, but learn to deal the dangerous situation. We could read Irwin helping the Powerpuff Girls, XJ-9, the Justice Friends, Teen Titans and finally earn a place at the Justice League table. It would be great to read how Irwin journey from Nerdy human with a One-Sided crush to a more bad ass Supernatural Hero. As for pairings we could have Irwin/Mindy and produce a child, but also other pairings that Irwin that he hooks up with other characters. It could be a recurring theme where Irwin finds love, but never keeps it. I cold see Irwin/Raven(Teen Titans) or even Irwin/Desiree (Danny Phantom) could come out of nowhere, for all I know.

...Let face it...Irwin has probably the better story out of the four choices. Even his powers and Hero's Journey seems interesting to write. Irwin half human, 1/3 Mummy, 1/3 Vampire and we cannot forget Irwin manage to be Cursed to transform into a Werewolf; so Irwin more Supernatural Creature Chimera than he is human.

Huh? Maybe it could Irwin journey as Hero and finding out where he belongs- the Underworld or Mortal Realm.
Nostalgia Fiction chapter 20 . 9/11
Nice to a see an update to this collection. I enjoy reading your Grim Tales fanfics because I personally get more out of the concept from them than the original source material. This was a neat chapter that sheds some light on how the Grim Tales Multiverse works, as well as a fun look into the daily life of Multiverse hopping Jewel. I enjoyed how Jewel called evil Jr. out on his boring motivation for being evil.

On a semi unrelated note, I have been thinking of the idea of how Billy would be incorporated into Grim Tales as a major recurring character. One of ideas I had would be making Billy this wandering spirit bounty hunter who just goes around existence, be it his universe or any other. He has no home because everyone hates having him around, so he stays somewhere new practically every night. While he doesn't seem to mind on the outside, it does make him sad on the inside. This idea can lend to some angsty goodness, especially If he happens upon Grim and Mandy again. I always thought that them growing apart was kinda sad. While Grim and Mandy were annoyed by Billy, it was shown numerous times that they did care about him, and Billy vice versa. So having the former two basically disown him and not acknowledge it at all seemed like wasted potential. So maybe a fic where they have some sort of reunion under less chaotic (or maybe chaotic) circumstances could be neat.

Another idea I had is for him to be the Grim Tales equivalent of the Doomguy. This idea also implies that Billy does somehow age when after spending most of his teens in Valhalla, he eventually sets off on his own and becomes a freelance bounty hunter. He tends to take whatever weapons and knick knacks he can find to better help him fight. Billy can turn almost anything he finds into a weapon. His reputation and otherwise chaotic and destructive nature cause him to be feared throughout all planes of existence. Plus it plays on the idea of Billy being just as feared as Mandy, but for different reasons. Billy would also have somewhat of an increase in intelligence,but not be an outright genius. I'd say he'd be alot like Season 1 Billy, Not a genius by any stretch of the word, but he does have some wit to him, is generally kind, and is less hyperactive. At least when not in a fight, where he is just as crazy and dangerous as he is in later seasons. Basically he'd be a himbo type character like Kronk or Galo from Promare.

This last one is a bit of an extension of the second one and is mostly something I thought of for lols, but it's the idea that Chi is actually Billy's daughter. Yeah, crazy I know, but I remember seeing a WMG about it on Tvtropes, and the idea just stuck with me. The idea of this prim and stuck up spawn of an eldritch abomination being also related to Billy just seemed morbidly perfect. I kinda prefer it to the idea of Chi being Blossom's daughter. This would also make her interactions with Jeff (her stepbrother) hilarious in hindsight. This idea would obviously mean Billy would have encountered Aku/Ikra at one point. Maybe Aku/Ikra is bored due to having no adversary to face anymore, and is also interested in the idea of having an heir. One day they happen open Billy at a bar in Aku city and decides to kill two birds with one stone. I imagine that Billy wouldn't be aware of Chi's existence either due to Ikra not telling or his own ignorance. Billy did have a crush on a monster named Blandy in the original show. This idea of course hinges on Billy aging normally of course.

I can understand this is not Billy's story and that Billy's character not being easy to write as to why he's not included or discussed, but seeing as how he's a third of the original trio, I feel like he should at least be acknowledged more. Plus, Mandy's character has changed as she grew older, so you can just as easily evolve Billy's character to better suit the new setting as well. But I guess that's just one of my gripes with the original comic. Maybe one day I'll write something about one of these.
Anyway, nice story. I don't think I have any suggestions on your ideas.
AMTT94 chapter 20 . 9/1
You have no idea how much I missed your Grim tales fanfiction. This story was great and shows that in some future you have to write a fanfiction in which this multiversal Jewel is the protagonist, or at least one of the protagonists. Personally I would love a story where "Grim Tales: Empire of Death", "Grim Tales: Complex" and your version of Jewel intersect. In fact, the only criticism I can make to this chapter is that there was no reference to the "Empire of Death" universe. And I know that I am very insistent in everything that can be related to your fanfiction "Empire of Death" but what happens is that I love that story. Also in the context of this chapter would have been great. I imagine the Grim Jr from the "Empire of Death" universe asking Jewel: "Hey ... am I one of the evil Grim Jr?"
It would also be great to see a meeting between Mimi Junior and Jewel in the future. The Black Demon Reaper and the Red Devil Reaper together, that would be great if it happened, or so I think.

About this chapter, I loved the interaction between Jewel and the other Grim family. I really liked the moment that Jewel had with the other Mimi and I found everything about the Ricks absolutely hilarious.

What you asked about: Male characters outside of the Grim Tales universe to interact with Grim Tales characters?
First: Alucard from hellsing abridged as he is very funny.
Second: Accelerator from Toaru Majutsu no Index, if you don't know them, look for videos of him on YouTube, he is a very powerful espe (a psychic). He has the power to control the direction or magnitude of anything that has vectors. With that he can cause earthquakes just by stepping on the ground, deflecting attacks (from bullets to nuclear explosions), controlling internal organs, e.t.c. He is a very powerful and interesting character.
Third: Ainz from Overlord ... that would be very funny. Imagine Junior changing places with Ainz XDXDXD.

I hope you keep writing and hopefully you will release more chapters of "Grim Tales: Complex" and "A League Beyond Legends" soon.
Yinyang2017 chapter 20 . 8/31
first let me say HOLY CRAP YOUR BACK srsly it’s good to see you update one of your stories again.

This was a really great chapter I loved how you referenced not only your stories like complex but also the works that other people have done like the next generation.

Really hoping you’ll do the mimi x chi lemon next after this hoping you do either the hero/villain idea you had or the samurai jack/aku one. Although I admit I would like to see you explore more of their dynamic together I guess you could try and do that with lemon or maybe you could do it in your grim tales complex story or do a new story focused on them entirely.

I can’t think of any lemons for any other male character but I think of a few for the lesbian pairings

Ideas:
Title:like mothers like daughters
Pairing:Mimi and blossom x chi and ikra
Story: takes place in a universe similar to your blossom x jr story where blossom a teacher and mimi and chi are high school girlfriends although chi and ikra are both still demons rather then humans. Blossom and ikra are both single moms with their daughters dating and one day chi and her mother invite the utoniams for a swim at their house. Eventually things start to get hot leading to a 4 some between the mothers and daughters. Reason why I kept ikra and chi as demons is because there’s a lot of naughty ideas you can do with their shapeshifting powers for example they can duplicate themselves to and grow some male genitalia to gang bang mimi and blossom.

Idea:
Title:master and pet
Pairing:Mimi x Minnie
Story:after breaking into castle grimskull and attempting to steal horror’s hand mimi is made into the castle pet and Mandy has jr and Minnie take turns watching over mimi. When it’s Minnie turn she dresses herself up as a dominatrix and ties mimi up and decides to have some fun with her. Got some strap on action, spanking, you name it.

Alright that’s all I got to say but hope to see more of your work and hope you take these lemon ideas into possible consideration
DPSS chapter 20 . 8/31
This one-shot was pretty cool. It kinda made me want a parody of Crisis in Infinite Earths with many Juniors and their allies though.
Slaying Salty chapter 20 . 8/31
Peter Parker (Captain Universe) and Mandy or Jewel? I really love Jewel and Clockwork, but I'm just such a Spider-Man shill that I can't take it.

Danny Phantom! Ship him with who ever you wish.

And finally, it's so good to have you back. It really is.
nightmaster000 chapter 20 . 8/30
Man is it AWESOME to be able to read your work again! Plus really did love the direction you took with your latest update in the Jewel multiverse job focused chapter, it was brilliant.

That fight between her and that version of Junior was very entertaining, and she showed she's one powerhouse not to take lightly. I also liked the twist you took on that Juniors fate karma bites back hard to say the least.

The Ricks and totally makes sense that their a recurring headache for someone with jobs like she has in monitoring and dealing with time or multiverse problems and threats.

All the other universes we're great we get more serious touch with Jewel chatting with a counterpart in a timeline where her parents are still alive, to her just plain getting pissed off dealing with a Nazi universe and the stress of her job.

Not to mention excellent appearance with Whis and Beerus and getting a explanation of the Omniverse, as well as mention of God of Magic Timmy Turner and another one of your stories.

All together really great stuff and man is it awesome to read your work again. :)

Also on your question besides lemons with Junior the main guys that pop into my head are Dipper Pines from Gravity Falls, Lincoln Loud from Loud House, Finn from Adventure Time, maybe Morty from Rick and Morty, Jackie Spicer from Xiaolin Showdown, Danny Phantom, Ron Stoppable, and Beast Boy.

I'll admit one idea that pops into my head right now involving Jack Spicer and Chi is a entirely AU where Chi is born centuries earlier as one final act of Aku, or somehow born from his essence/remains after his death, or just plain role switch with Chi emerging from the black pit instead of Aku the day the Emperor fired his arrow.

Anyway it's AU where Chi rather than slain by the Mystical Sword instead was imprisoned and was released centuries later by Jack Spicer, who she granted a boon to. Find Chi and learning the power she possessed and her intention of conquering the world the reward he requested was Chi herself to become her king.
Brave2000 chapter 20 . 8/30
Glad to see you back! You know me, I would love to see a xj9 and Jr one-shot, as well as a Phoenix force and grim one shot. Outside of grim tales, I would really love to see the endless from vertigo make an appearance. Out of all the fictional characters I have read in my life, I believe this group, this family, is probably the most interesting and the most powerful, if only because they pretty much exist EVERYWHERE in the omniverse, in different shapes and faces. They are omniversal constants. Concepts that exist by necessity, where even an "omnipotent" God would be unable to get rid of them for good. It would be amazing to see dream of the endless interact with Jr, or jewel or anybody from the grim tales mythos.
As always, good to see you back. Cant wait for more!
coldblue2015 chapter 20 . 8/30
This chapter was multiverse adventure...

My head his spinning...Jewel life is so complicated, but I am glad that at the end of the day she gets back to Clockwork.

I honestly think Jewel has two mothers in Minnie and Mimi. I wonder if Junior got one of Mimi eggs and Minnie wanted to give birth to Junior child. Sort of like Jewel biological having three parents or something.

I love the Bill and Ted references, along with Nazi realities or even Rick and Morty being poked fun of.

Grim Junior and Mable Pines:

Yeah, I could see Grim Junior just abruptly showing up to Mable rescue by accident. A skeleton kid with Scythe would freak out the Gnomes and Mable...Until Junior shifts his form to look like a Mortal and Mable gets all kinds of attracted to Junior. The problem is...Grim Junior cannot leave Gravity Falls because the Barrier/Weirdness that contains it is so strong that it could even hold...a Demon/Ghost Reaper in training...That when Grim Junior actually gets to know the Pine Family and actually develops a relationship with Mable Pines, much to everyone surprise!

Hmmm...Your QTP in the Author Notes is interesting.

I can try and take a stab at the idea.

Mandy and Dead Shot/Floyd Lawton(DC Comics)- Mandy as political figure, but also works as Assassin ends up hooking up with Dead Shot, the Mercenary that never misses...It surprising turns out to be a great relationship, with Mandy usually manipulating the situation to use her husband talents to her benefits in Task Force X or just paying him to do a job. Mandy does have kid with Floyd and it not as much of a struggle for Floyd to see his kid and keep in contact with his wife. Floyd might not be Deathstroke or the most faithful, but neither is Mandy and that strangely make a working relationship between the two.

Minnie Mandy and Etrigan/Jason Blood(DC Comics)- In one the many multiverses, Jason Blood is young man who soul fused into a Mortal, who is on Young Justice team. Minnie travels from the Mortal World to the Under World, encountering Supernatural battle between Villains and Heroes. Minnie decides to use her Nergal Hybrid abilities to play with the Heroes and Villains. Minnie kind of chaotic with her choice, looking out for her self interest. Jason Blood and Etrigan both have attraction to her as lovely young women, her way of speaking and her Supernatural connections. Jason Blood and Etrigan do try to convert Minnie to be a hero, but mostly they search her out and try to get a date with Minnie. It rather cute and interesting for Minnie to feel...wanted and decides to hookup/dates Jason and Etrigan until she decides to marry him...After all, Jason/Etrigan have the blood of Trigon running through there veins and Minnie offspring could prove to be powerful.

Mimi and Loki (Marvel)- The Norse God of Mischief was exploring the Realms and had unexpected turn of meeting a Demoness. Normal Loki would slay and kill the Demon, but finds himself teaming up with Mimi to fight...Hela. His sister wanted to kill Loki and anyone in her way...sadly Mimi could not voice her words NOT with Loki. They survive together, but they are stuck on the Mortal Realm and have to deal with Heroes and Villains. Mimi being advisor to Loki, assistance sometimes and other times opposition when Loki does not give Mimi what she wants. The Fire Demon and Frost Giant struggle to get along sometimes, but strangely never seem hate each other and are comfortable around one another. Loki desire to rule and Mimi desire to feel fulfilled sort of lead the duo on plots/adventures to conquer Asgard or Planets they want to call their own...home.

Chi and Hellboy(Darkhorse Comics)- Chi was bored of the Underworld. Hellboy was just called to do another job to fight the Supernatural. Fist fly, transformations happen and Hellboy discover as Demon that really just wants to do whatever she wants in the Mortal Realm. The Bureau of Paranormal Research and Defense cannot easily kill Chi, so they imprison her and recruit her to help Agent Hellboy to fight other Supernatural beings that try to destroy the world. Chi does not like Hellboy and Hellboy does like Chi, but they both can agree on few things they like...Cats and Candy bars. Over the years they grow close and deal with the Supernatural, until Humanity rejects Hellboy and Chi takes her...husband back to her realm to be treated as he should be...Like a king. After all, a Queen needs a King and vice-versa.

Have you ever thought of doing a story, where the Rowdyruff Boys decide to live there life in chaotic world and be heroes?

I would read that! Teenage Rowdyruff Boys, living in Government Housing and trying live day by day getting handle on their lives and finding themselves. Sort of deal with their shady past as Criminals, but moving on from that. Boomer would be Bisexual, Butch would have few kids for not where protection with the ladies and Brick...will he find someone to connect to? That up to you and this is just a fun idea of speculation.

I hope this helps you out in some regards.

Stay healthy, stay safe and have a great day!
