There’s a sense of comfort I find in Grace being so relatable, whilst being older.
In the way that we see him cry, crash out, throw tantrums and go through the full spectrum of emotions, and continue to get up after. That he needs time to process things before he can thrive.
In the way that he’s had a pretty big career change at some point. He’s struggling to get by and still feels lost at times, but he’s able to enjoy life regardless. He’ll land on his feet, even if he stumbles first.
In the way that he struggles to make close friends, but when he does it’s a deep bond and he’s loyal to them. That love can be difficult but friendship just as important.
In the way that he always feels a little out of place. A little different. But that even that is okay and accepted with the right company.
In the way that he's put in a situation against his will, yet still has to solve it somehow bc it's the right thing to do and he doesn't have much of a choice. Giving up is not an option.
In the way that many headcanon him as some type of neurodivergent and are able to project their struggles with that onto him. He’s able to have autistic melt/breakdowns, bad habits and stims. And none of it feels out of character. If anything it adds to him.
In the way that on the way to Erid, many headcanon that he had a lot of difficulty eating after the taumouba ended up the only thing being able to sustain him enough to keep him barely alive during the trip.
Grace being like that and it being accepted and agreed upon in the fandom is comforting to me because it shows that it’s okay to struggle with these things despite being mature.
