#Stella helluva boss

[oceansarepink]

Stella - Fans give HelluvaBoss far too much credit.

When starving for rep, people will eat anything. The phrase goes, “Beggars can’t be choosers”. But stop insisting mud slop is chocolate cake.

Talking about Stella with the fandom is extremely awkward. Most hate her because of headcanons and projections. Those alone are why they claim she’s “scarily realistic”, not the writing itself. When you speak to them about the character they start talking about their own experiences as if those are part of the show.

When “Stella is terribly written” comes up, the fans love going into diatribes explaining what domestic abuse is to the audience as if we don’t know, and their explanations alone, they think, make Stella suddenly become “well written”.

You ask the fans, “how is she well written?” And they say “well, she’s a woman who is abusive to a man.” The fact female abusers are underrepresented in media means stellas mere existence alone is enough to warrant undivided praise. Standing ovations happen at cons where Bryce Pinkham cites his lines divorcing the character. Despite this conflict being completely shallow.

Stolas fans are extremely insistent that she must remain one note and pure evil. Because to them, in this “powerful story” she’s carrying the fate of male DV victims on her back. So if Stella is humanised, the fear is that male victims of domestic abuse won’t be believed, and their abusers have ‘apologist rhetoric’ (Stella being legitimately done wrong) may hurt them!…Despite “Stella” being nothing more than a cartoon swan. They give this webtoon incredible amounts of social power. And medrano I think, loves and relishes in that power. She doesn’t have to lift a finger and actually write a character, backstory, arc, relationships, likes/dislikes, a plan of villainy, a dynamic, or a story, the fact Stolas exists, is gay, and is a victim to a woman, is enough. Enough for a grand standing ovation.

Let me explain with an example

In this scene of Stella and Via where her mother takes her phone away. The sole dialogue to via is “sorry sweetie, no talking to that deadbeat” that’s all. But twitter users started saying - Via cries like stolas does, Stella hates that. Abusers sometimes bully their children for having traits of their victims. So via has to hide her tears so her mom doesn’t abuse her. They imply they have experience with it, which makes Stellas writing is so realistic.

…..That’s great and all. People are allowed to relate and have comfort characters. But none of that is in the show. Stella just took her daughter’s phone. That’s all she did and said to her. But when someone points that out, they get accused of doubting someone’s real life abuse experience. The one they’ve imagined as also being in the show.

List of helluva (boss) predictions for season 3

For Striker:

. Gets his own helluva short (possibly about taking his horse BombProof to the vet)

. Gets his very own episode thanks to his backstory.

. Striker appears in 6 of the 15 episodes of helluva boss (3x more than 3 from season 2)

. Striker finds out that stolas is no longer demon royalty (Thanks to blitz) stolas and imp make peace with Striker as he moves on from Stolas & searches for the main target of demon royalty. (Stella)

__________________________________________________

The main predictions:

. In season 3, EP1 we get a backstory of Stella and Andre. the same way we got a backstory for Stolas and Blitz and S2 EP1. But in Stella's POV.

. we see a serious I.M.P discussion about Millie's pregnancy, and what the future will be for the company for the next 9 months. (Possibly in episode 2 or later in season 3)

. Octavia and Stolas reunite as he gets his own apartment (thanks to Blitz) for Octavia and stolas to live in for the rest of their lives.

. During Millie's hiatus in I.M.P they get an interim replacement for Millie that could either be Striker, Sallie May, Or one of Millie's brothers.

. After Millie has her baby, crimson kidnaps it shortly after M&M's backs are turned, (leading to the final battle between I.M.P Vs, Crimson, & during that final battle between I.M.P & Crimson, (with the help of Striker & Millie) moxxie assassinates crimson between the eyes the same way he did Martha in murder family (S1, EP1).

. In the Lust Ring, we have an awkward run-in with stolas, blitz, and the "better than Blitzo" succubus Imp, and reveals his real name.

**THINGS I DON'T WANT TO HAPPEN IN SEASON 3.**

. 1 by 1. every main antagonist and protagonist in helluva boss dies. (Ex: Blitz, moxxie, Millie, stolas, Striker, Loona, Fizzarolli.)

. M+M break up 💔 (prolly due to baby discussion)

. Yet another C H E.R.U.B.S comeback (just give it up angels, Ya Lost to I.M.P twice now)

“We’re sick and tired of sympathetic villains! We want them gone! We want purely evil villains we love to hate again just like the old days!! We want to enjoy how evil they’re are!”

People, you couldn’t even handle these two.

A little bit obsessed with the idea of Blitzø having one (1) interaction with Stella and going "oh HELL no. I'm Via's dad now. I adopted a 17-year-old girl once and by Satan, I'll do it again"

[redjoey1992]

Stella and Andy are so obnoxiously cartoonishly evil that they make the Wet Bandits look like Hans Gruber by comparison. Seriously, is being evil their only character trait? Even the Disney Villains have more character depth and subtlety in their villainy.

What kind of bird is Stella even supposed to be? I don’t know if the ambiguity of her species was intentional or if I should just chop it up to Viv’s artstyle being dogshit
