The latest Helluva Boss episode dropped on Oct 19th, and it featured a nice scene between the characters Loona and Octavia. The fandom however are losing their goddamned minds over people shipping them, saying it "pedophilia" (it's not, Octavia is 17 and Loona was thought to be 18 but revealed to be 22 in a stream, but pedo is a lot easier to say than ephebo) and "incest" (they're not blood-related, and it's not pseudo-incest either because their respective parents, Loona's adoptive dad Blitzo and Via's biological dad Stolas are not married). The sub even modified its rules to include shipping these two as being against Rule 10 - Bad Things. Showing porn of Stolas or Octavia is understandably bad. But a SHIP?

Never mind that Stolas and Blitz's adult relationship started off as an affair. Stolas was in a loveless arranged marriage with Stella, and he only stuck around this long for the sake of giving his daughter, who he clearly loves, as much of a normal life as possible.

Never mind that they met once as children (in the minds on the antis, this would be pseudo-incest because childhood best friends are sibling-coded) and when they finally met again as adults, Blitz completely forgot about Stolas and was actually trying to rob him (he was tasked with stealing from him when they were kids too). He ended up fucking Stolas out of pity because Stolas was high off absinthe and going on about how amazing it was that the first person who actively wants him happens to be the first friend he ever made.

Never mind that Loona and Octavia started off on a healthy foot compared to their dads. Octavia was upset because Stolas forgot his promise he made to her when she was a child to take her to see a meteor shower, and her attempt to see it by herself got her lost in LA (kickstarting the plot) and all she got was a sky full of smog. Loona is abrasive and a total bitch to everyone, but she was tasked by Blitzo with finding Octavia, and originally she wasn't even going to. But she came around when she saw they took a picture of the same movie poster and realized she could track her through her social media posts. And after spending the entire episode stalking Octavia's Sinstagram to find her, she takes the time to comfort her before bringing her back. She didn't have to be nice to her, and it wouldn't be out of character for her if she wasn't. But she comforted Octavia because she knew how messy shit gets. It's not as simple as Octavia asking "Why does my dad hate my mom more than he loves me?" It was shown that Blitzo adopted Loona because he saw she was in desperate need love, and despite Loona constantly fighting with him, she acknowledges the effort he puts in to show her he loves her, and that's what's important. Parents aren't perfect. They fuck up constantly (or all the time), but the point is that they try. And Stolas clearly loves Octavia enough to drop everything to look for her (he got pushed into the B-plot with Blitz so he couldn't find her himself).

Loona helped Octavia, but Octavia also helped Loona. She provided Loona with an outlet to talk about her feelings without making her feel like she was being judged or showing weakness. She also lit Loona's cigarette when Loona was having trouble with her lighter. Loona's lighter only worked when she finally said something positive about Blitz as her dad.

And then Loona immediately kicked Blitzo in the balls when they met up again.

Whether they end up being just friends, lovers, or even stepsisters, this show is about DEMONS IN HELL. It's one of the purest HEALTHIEST relationships there. And antis are AGAINST it? THEIR MAIN OTP STARTED OUT AS AN AFFFAAAAIIRRRRR. ADULTERY.

God forbid women have anything.

"They completely robbed all the context to fit their narrative, it's very false."

I mean yeah...they stretched the turth to put more sympathy on Misha, as stans do, but uh...doesn't change the fact that Jared's escalation was assholeish. Someone parks too close to my car, my automatic response isn't to slash their tires. New tires aren't cheap. A tow truck shows up to tow my car off, I mean yeah I'm pissed, but I talk to them and let them do their job and I certainly wouldn't go so far as to threaten to destroy both the tow truck and a coworker/"friend's" car. And the " I can pay for it" thing. Then you can pay the tow fee. It's like 200 bucks to get a car out of impound (in the US at least). If you can pay to destroy two vehicles that aren't yours and replace/ fix them you can pay a towing and impound fee. I think that's the part (other than the violent retaliation) that speaks the loudest. Your wife promotes Take Only What You Need while wearing her $2000 outfits and you brag about being able to afford destroying two vehicles. To an average person, the towing fee and impound fee would be a severe financial upset and you can pay for TWO vehicle destruction/repairs. How relateable. It's people like this I worry about when/if the economy goes down the toilet. They won't know how to function without their financial security. God forbid they have to get their clothes at a Goodwill or their groceries at a Piggly Wiggly or wherever. I bet they'd be mortified to even set foot in a food locker. Or live in a house that either has just enough rooms for each person or one room too few. Imagine how much "me time" Gen would need if she couldn't afford her full time staff and had to childrear and housekeep while working 40 hours a week like the rest of society. Or worse, was forced to be a SAHM because she couldn't even afford child care for when she is working. Jared would have to fly economy on a cheap airline😱. It's exactly this type of attitude and behaviour that made me stop caring about the Pads. They are so unbelievably out of touch with reality. Jared isn't a saint. He's a rich celebrity that does rich celebrity bs and gets away with it because he is a rich celebrity who can pay his way out of actual consequences.

I'm sorry, but no matter which way you spin that story, Jared still comes out looking like an ass.

They definitely left out Misha’s participation in everything, but even with his participation, it doesn’t make Jared look better. 

I also don’t want to slash someone’s tires if someone parks too closely. I’ve complained or swore under my breath, but slashing someone’s tires? That’s a bit much there, Hulk. 

The thing about it too is that Jared caught his car being towed BEFORE IT WAS TOWED. Yes, if the prank had gone through and they had taken his car, he’d need to pay the fees, but he caught it before the car left. So he wouldn’t have had to pay anything.

It definitely says a lot about him as a person that he actually considered destroying two cars, possibly compromising the tow driver’s job, all for a PRANK because “he could afford it”. I used to think that he needed to be rescued from Gen, but they’re perfect for each other. 

I think you’re right, if they were ever in the circumstance where they needed to face real problems and couldn’t use money to get out of them, they’d probably both lose their minds.  I’d love to see them switch places with a “regular” family and see just how out of touch they are. 

Jensen and Misha are also rich, but you don’t see them flaunting it around and you don’t see them acting like they’re so busy and relatable because they need “me time” and are dealing with the “holiday craziness”. I mean Danneel actually came out and admitted that they had a nanny and so she wasn’t acting like she was doing it all like super mom Gen. 

The Pads are ridiculous. They’re turning into the Kardashians of the SPN world.
