#Stolas I get it but also

[bonetownresident]

Imagine being Octavia and watching your Dad on live TV about to throw his life away for some dude who contributed to ruining your parents marriage, without seemingly any regard for what happens to you, or how it'll feel to no longer have your father.

A detail I don't see mentioned about the confrontation between Blitzø and Stolas is that while Blitzø is understandably angry and lashing out, he also ends his rant with an invitation to Stolas, imploring, no, demanding he meet him at his level, to get as angry as he is, to FIGHT HIM, right then and there.

We've seen frequently that imps are violent in general, they're originally native to Wrath, and we see that most of their bonding rituals often involve violence and/or bodily harm (just look at how much Millie and Sallie May messed each other up at the end and while being able to laugh about it; a broken bottle fight and broken bones is their version of a light-hearted pillow fight)

While Blitzø is also very self-destructive, even by Hell's standards, it should be noted that he's technically begging for Stolas to connect with him in this moment, to speak a language he understands. "At least respect me enough to fight me! If you care, why walk away? Get real with me, if we can't get physical with our genitals, then at least let us get physical with our fists!"

Unfortunately, Stolas has had the exact opposite cultural upbringing, having been taught his whole life that emotional outbursts are unseemly and improper, so his main go-to for conflicts is avoidance. He avoided confrontation with his father, he basically avoided Stella as much as he could even when she was openly shitting on him at parties; and ONLY just recently has he managed to stand up for himself and when he finally does, it's not to strike back, but simply stand his ground for once, emboldened his new-found love for Blitzø and the knowledge that his daughter isn't fooled by the act anymore and will soon be of age anyway.

It is not currently in Stolas' nature to be confrontational the way Blitzø desperately needs him to be.

Blitzø says: "Please, if you ever actually cared, you'd fight for us Get mad, show me that you care!"

What Stolas hears is just the most literal interpretation with zero subtext, because he isn't attuned to the subtleties of arguing and especially not what it looks like for imps, i.e. he focuses on the "I always hated you" interpretation.

Both gave the other an opening, but only heard dismissal, because it wasn't spoken in a language they were familiar with.

I'm not saying either handled things well here, Blitzø shouldn't immediately respond with anger and Stolas shouldn't default to walking away, that's my whole point.

I just thought it was an interesting angle that their differences aren't just societal (privilege/wealth/respect) but also cultural in how it influences how they each handle emotional confrontation, or, in the case of Stolas, how they don't.

LOVED and adored Vassago and the little tiny anger management guy but then also Stolas really hasn't caught a break in a WHILE now

This, right here, is the moment I was hoping was going to be in this episode.

Millie, when Blitz is at his lowest, when he has been telling himself for years that everyone he has every been close to has been destroyed by him, says no, you're wrong. You have made me a better person. You gave me the courage to be something more than I ever thought I could be. You being so unapologetically you is inspiring. You helped me and I love and cherish our relationship because of that.

Because that's what Blitz does. He helps people.

He helped Loona get out of a horrible situation and provided for her an environment where she could thrive and be herself.

He helped Moxxie start over. Gave him a job where the murdering is (for the most part) justified (or at least done with 'good' intentions). Where he too is allowed to be himself. Musical theatre nerd and all.

He helped Stolas realize that it is okay to want. That it is okay to be selfish for once in his life and pursue something that truly makes him happy. Blitz showed him a part of himself that he either didn't know about or had locked away a very long time ago.

He needed to hear this. He needs to hear so much more of this from the important people in his life and I hope that along this journey we get to see how much he is loved by those around him and how much good he has done.

There’s something about them putting Via’s and Blitzo’s stockings next to each other that makes me so hopeful for the future <3 they r gonna be best friends I know it

[oxfordsxbrogues]

“Wait no not like that.”

OR: Results? To MY own self-sabotage? More likely than you’d think!

OR: I don’t CARE that the prophecy was self-fulfilling, I’m still angry about it! 😤

OR: Blitzø sweetie pie please go to therapy I know this great lady with a hotel where you do trust falls and talk about your feelings she’s like a block away from your office just pop in for thirty seconds please I’m begging you 🥺

[nyxofdemons]

still not over this. never going to be over this. what the fuck

[quijotine]

all the vivziepop critical posts thinking they're making a good point shitting on Sinsmas while in reality it just exposes their absolutely nonexistent media literacy.

"Stolas is a bad father, a bad lover, selfish and he doesn't try enough"

Girl, have you ever heard of a character arc? We are in mf season two for a show that will be 5 seasons. We're not even at the midpoint. Three doritos ago, people were shitting on Blitzø for his emotional unavailability and lack of commitment, and now that his arc has progressed, he's everyone's favorite. How about you wait until the story is done to draw your conclusions? I know. Revolutionary concept.

Alternatively, if it makes you so angry that you want to shit yourself, you could just. Stop watching. And let everyone else enjoy in peace.

some silly doodles to warm up to the art style

I want Ghostfuckers to come out just for the chance to see Blitz in this fit, serving so much rizz that it should be illegal.

That's it, that's the post.

WHAT DID I SAY ABOUT STRIKER AND BLITZ’S SPEECHES, WHAT DID I FUCKING SAYYYY

“You know, Stolas, I spent the entirety of this morning listening to love ballads…”

EXCUSE ME, MY BROTHER IN SATAN, “I-AM-TOO-MUCH-IMP-TO-SIMP” SIR, YOU ARE A WALKING CONTRADICTION!

[jinxed-sinner]

Look I know Lucifer isn't the best dad ever but I feel like people who say he's a bad dad are purposely ignoring the context of the show. It is very much implied that he thought Charlie wanted nothing to do with him, and Charlie thought he wanted nothing to do with her. Lucifer’s still dealing with trauma from Heaven and his fall and probably will for the rest of time plus he's dealing with what would probably qualify as clinical depression, and simultaneously dealing with trauma, clinical depression, and autistic traits (which Lucifer absolutely has; I do not say, as an autistic person, that Lucifer is a massive autistic mood for no reason) is a fucking NIGHTMARE.

I'm not saying Lucifer shouldn't take responsibility. He should. But he's already doing better than my dad frankly. Lucifer hits me in the daddy issues, I wish my dad made an effort to be more active in my life. Lucifer is fucking trying, and that's better than a lot of people can say about their dads.
