#blitz my bby

[tealvenetianmask]

So despite hating himself, Blitz is confident about sex and about work, right?

Right???

Where did all of that confidence go? It's a fun kind of confidence that takes us along for the ride and makes us want to see what he'll do next, and I miss it. Not to mention, seeing him start to break down is a little too relatable.

I've seen a lot of good analysis recently about how and why Blitz's mask is slipping. He's been shaken to the core by everything that happened with Stolas, and now he can't maintain the facade of confidence that's been getting him through daily life.

Recent events have made me think differently about Blitz's hallucination in Truth Seekers. Yes, it shows us lots of fear of relationships- of hurting and being hurt. But the insecurity in particular is standing out to me a lot more now.

Take these quotes from hallucination-Moxxie (actually Blitz's own psyche speaking):

First quote: "I simply follow your orders. It isn't my fault if your orders are as nonsensical as a sun tanning bed left out on the cold rainy porch of a fresh April shower."

Second quote: "you don't know what you are doing half the time and depend on me and the missus to manage your foolish flights of fancy."

I want to point out before getting into the words that in all of these frames the animation is drawn to look like Blitz is glitching out on a computer screen, with frames overlapping and stark colorful lines reverberating. It's like he's barely able to hold onto his identity. It's like he's losing himself.

Now the content of the quotes themselves-- even though Blitz's confident assassin persona is convincing, even though he frequently calls out Moxxie for mistakes and builds himself up, even though when we see him fighting, he KNOWS HE'S GOT THIS, and even though he talks confidently about his schemes, this man SERIOUSLY DOUBTS HIMSELF AT WORK.

Blitz is an improviser, and I've written before about how much I love this because I relate to it. Blitz talks through plans that sound pretty extravagant but don't have many details ironed out (and this drives Moxxie up a wall), and then he pulls them off by acting intuitively and making decisions in the moment. He's great at it. I get it. When plans are too detailed or too set in stone (at work, when traveling, in my writing), I feel seriously boxed in. I need grand vague ideas to get me excited to get going and a lack of details so that I can do what's right in the moment and avoid getting stuck. I did not outline this post. I love that this tendency of Blitz's is portrayed so positively, because in my own experience, it often gets misunderstood as laziness or unrealistic thinking.

Or *cough* "foolish flights of fancy."

So what we have here is Blitz doubting one of the very personality traits that makes him so successful in his work, interpreting it as not knowing what he's doing, and feeling like he has to cover it up. He's down in the imposter syndrome pit with the rest of us.

So, I just got done with Helluva boss episode 3 of the second season, & oh my god (Obvious spoilers, you get it by now)

JESUS MARY & JOSEPH! This was fucking nuts!

Well, let’s see if I can get my thoughts out as best as I can without it looking like I’m having a seizure. Wish me luck!

Also, this scene needs to be appreciated more

Okay, onto the review!

----------------------------------

Moxxie’s dad Crimson is a real piece of shit. Guess he took over Stella’s throne of being the worst in this series

Chaz gives me MAJOR Jack vibes (O will get that, BTW). If O doesn’t make a crackship post of him trying to bait Zoey & she almost cuts his throat, you can bet your ass I’ll do it instead

To top it off, let’s add Chaz to the “People Blitz is gonna be shipped with” list. I can hear the R34 artists drawing those Imp willies already

I feel so bad for Moxxie, his backstory is the saddest. His poor momma Q-Q

Something tells me I’m gonna make Alexandra’s mafia (My Impsona, if you remember) be rivals with Crimson’s, am I? It would work out, NGL, I’m sure Moxxie wouldn’t mind ^^”

“So. This is aggressively uncomfortable“ A line I am definitely using

Get you someone like Millie. That’s all

& something tells me that last scene with Crimson throwing a knife at bby Moxx’s picture is gonna be a reference to something. I wanna be wrong so badly

----------------------------------

Aaaaaaand, that should do it

@vivziepop OH MY GOD, I LOVE THE WAY YOUR MIND WORKS!! Give me your ideas, I wanna take a peak into your brain & see how you manage to do this! The songs, the animation, the voice acting, the story, goddamn!! I love this episode! Easily one of my favorite ones of season two so far. It's gonna be hard to top this, but I'm so excited to see what you have in store for the next episode, hun!

[hazbinsinners]

7, 9, and 20 for your monday questions teehee

;; hi bby :) this got kinda long puttin it under a cut!

7. what drew you to writing your current characters?

;; i mean atp i've written for i think nearly everyone in hazbin/hellaverse at this point at least once? aside from some of the overlords, and niffty lmao. but my main muses ( angel, blitz, vox ) are honestly just because they're my favorite! i tend to spend a lot of time analyzing my favorite characters and eventually i just kinda feel like i understand them, which makes me wanna write them :] as for valentino . . . staticmoth. LMAO LITERALLY. THAT WAS THE ENTIRE REASON. being able to write both sides of staticmoth. and the fact that i like exploring darker themes and darker characters.

blitz in particular means a whole lot to me :') i think he's my favorite muse. angel is my favorite character in hellaverse but blitz is just. i have such a strong connection to him. he's such a huge comfort and i see so much of myself in him that i've always been drawn to him. he was my first hellaverse muse and he'll always be special :))

9. how would you describe your aesthetic?

;; changes by the day LMAO. no but seriously i cannot decide whether or not i wanna punk/alt/grunge or overly cute pink strawberry etc. i typically tend to settle for like a kuromi harajuku punk vibe :) black & pink! but like also... nature... if i could design a house, it would be SO much like a fairycore cottage man. that's the DREAM

20. who is your celebrity crush?

;; Z.END.AYA. LIKE ARE YOU KIDDING. HOLY ACTUAL FUCK. i've got a couple others that are a bit more embarrassing LMFAO but i've always thought z.end.aya is like the most gorgeous woman on the planet and i'd love it if she would step on me thanks

ty for sendin this in hun :] lots of love !!!

[ghostlyplacetobe]

Oh well I’m quite proud of my job, actually. I recruit overlords. -Moxxie

I’m proud of you bby -Blitz

Oooooo :0

[thebig-chillqueen]

it iS I, FRIDA KAHLO!

[liang-nova]

yea can you guys tell I can't wait for the itto rerun HAHAHAHAHAHAH

[tealvenetianmask]

I was chatting with @akirathedramaqueen about our fic, and in the context of that fic, she said that "sex is an instrument of avoidance" for Blitz and Stolas.

And that made me realize that in the show, at the beginning of Apology Tour, Blitz is using sex to try to be close to Stolas while avoiding talking about things that are too big and daunting and scary at the moment.

I'm not saying that he's right to avoid the important topic or try to push aside Stolas's feelings or deny him space. But . . . the guy's worldview just got ripped apart. And then foundation of that worldview is having sex with Stolas. He's trying to regain some normalcy.

So am I defending him acting sexual here to an unhinged degree? Yes and no. But we should keep in mind that this behavior used to work. And if it doesn't work, he needs to . . . confront his fear of true intimacy and his own inadequacy? Just go on without Stolas in his life? Those are terrifying things.

[justarandomhelluvablog]

trying to chill in bed with my laptop to write and puppies are crawling all over me, these are the problems I love lol

[amilliontales]

A bottle of water is sitting on a desk near Blitz, a glass bottle designed to look like it was made of shimmering diamonds. Unbeknownst to the Imp, the bottle has flaws in it that will cause it to shatter when picked up, and water inside angelic blessed holy water

[ooc]

[justarandomsideblog]

God I relate to you SO much right now. Everyone's talking about Ozzie and Fizzo and just, skimming past the fact that Blitz and him have a deep and personal history together? I want to know that! I want to know why they hate each other! Can they reconcile? Is it too late? HOW MUCH DID AND STILL MEAN TO EACH OTHERRRR

Same! And I want to know if the mark on their foreheads is just a mark of a lust-ring imp, a brand (since I get the feeling, it being hell, there could absolutely be a case of imps being owned by higher demons...) or if it means they're related (seriously hoping they're not, since Blitz said some very sus things about/to RoboFizz, and I'm sorry but as someone with 3 siblings-

(source: Jeff Delgado's Twitter)

THIS is NOT a way you pose with family for a picture/selfie. Like, I have only posed like this for pictures with an extremely close friend (you know, the kind where you're close enough to joke-flirt) OR with my ex-fiancee. But that's neither here nor there. But also I would like to take a moment to fucking CRY about this pic because FIZZ' OUTFIT IS SO??? COOL??? He gave up being able to dress like that to be a clown and wear nothing but a jester suit im actually so sad that is tragic bby why you looked so good in that outfit and y'all were so happy with y'all's easy-going smiles but now y'all just grin all the time hhhh-)

I digress.

Anyway!! Since we know the white spots on the imps are basically imp-type scarring, I wonder if Fizz's face isn't actually painted white but if it's just imp-scarring instead- meaning Fizz got into an absolutely horrific accident at some point. I wonder if Blitz was also in that accident and that's how he got HIS scars? Did this accident contribute to the deterioration of their relationship? Was it a catalyst? Did they blame each other?

And since there's so much debate on whether or not Fizz is an imp (when he very clearly is...) I wonder if in-universe no one knows Fizz is an imp? It's hinted that Blitz' mom is dead, his sister is supposedly in rehab (assuming that wasn't Verosika just trying to get under his skin) and if Blitz and his family were among the only people who were close to Fizz as kids/teens, then Blitz and Ozzie might be the only ones left who know he's really an imp, the lowest form of hellborn on the demon hierarchy. Like, he'd probably be a lot less famous if people knew he was an imp, right? So if he was trying to hide it now... that would mean despite everything, despite how much Blitz seems to hate Fizz (though the pictures insinuate he still cares, if he's kept them this long), he's still kept Fizz' secret. Like, it's obvious why Ozzie would keep it secret (you know, literally he just criticized Stolas' relationship with an imp so he looks down on it clearly, the hypocrite) but Blitz?

But anyway!! I'm really hoping Blitz gets to reconcile with both Fizz and Verosika, since it seems like they had been genuinely caring relationships at one point. If I had to take a guess, I'd bet that something's gonna happen to Blitz and it's gonna be up to Blitz' new friends (Millie, Moxxie, Loona and Stolas) and his old friends (Verosika and Fizz) to save him. I seriously hope for reconciliation... but I fear what it might cost...

Its 3am and ive just BLITZED my way through She Drives me Crazy. holy shit. I dont even have the WORDS for how amazing this story is!!!!!

I absolutely adored how you managed to incorporate the entire cast into a beautiful summer camp ensemble! Each character felt so true to the origins of the show but also somehow felt perfect in this setting??? (Youre so right Robin would wear backwards caps 🥰🥰🥰) the fruity four were such gems in this 🧡 each and every one of them so perfectly in character and added such a nice weight to the story, everyone was so well rounded, i teared up at the end when they all said goodbye 🥺

Ive never attended a summer camp in my life but the way you described the atmosphere and setting made me feel like i was there! I could smell the forest and the woodsmoke, feel the waters of the lake on my skin !! This story has honestly made me want to work at a summer camp!

Its like you perfectly managed to convey a sense of childhood nostalgia i dont even have. Like the environment of a temporary retreat that feels like a second home; where the rest of your life pauses and for a time: and this liminal space becomes your home! And its not perfect, its broken in places and a bit grubby in others but its Home! for a little while! And that little time combined with the people you share it with is what makes it so darn sweet!

Dont even get me started on your absolutely delicious *chefs kiss* tension between the reader and Steve! The back and forth banter, never holding back with such beautiful pacing that made it really feel like they've been going at it for years 🙏😭 every interaction they had felt so natural and your pacing was so lovely, it just felt right with each scene that played out! The day off at the lake sounds like such a gorgeous dream it has me so eager for summer!

Honestly your writing is masterful! Youre a very talented writer, being able to include such a big array of well loved characters, amazing dialogue and gorgeous settings all in one story! I feel spoiled just reading it!

and i was so impressed with the adorable website you made for the camp and everything 🥺🥺🥺

I hope you have a lovely day, and if you have any sort of taglist i would love to be on it!

Sorry for the rant! This story has filled me with great comfort during a hard time 🧡

Three am, bby 😭 I don’t think I can really respond eloquently to this. You’re too much, you’re so lovely, I am on the floor-

Please never apologise for a message like that! You’ve made me so happy and honestly, I can’t actually find the words to thank you enough. Thank you for reading, thank you for being so amazingly kind, thank you for taking the time to send such a lovely message.

You’ve made me smile so much 🥹🧡🧡🧡

💒 for elliot and john? 😍

HIIIIII BBY TYSM 💖💖💖💖

🔪 DEATH KEEP OFF; I AM YOUR ENEMY: john x ell

• well, traditionally john and ell get married through extensive and elaborate lies and deceit and emotional manipulation. but! in the instant that they have a real wedding, it's going to be very moderate. this is the one wedding scarlet doesn't impose her will considering she's not pleased they're getting married.

• elliot's wedding dress is powder blue. she jokes about getting a black dress ("for my funeral!") but she goes with the light blue. it's an outside wedding in (preferably) the spring, when things are in bloom!

• joey is her maid of honor! and she spends the entire morning stressing out. does she want to get married? of course she does, but she is inherently designed to flee. so she spends the entire morning talking through every anxiety she has with joey.

• most of the inhabitants of hope county are invited (much to john's disdain) and scarlet is limited to TEN debutant frenemies to invite. ONLY ten. the seeds are also invited, but the ONE thing elliot puts her foot down is having pastor jerome officiate the wedding. she says "john i will not have your creepy older brother wedding us, i'm sorry i won't hear anything about it". they argue nonstop before john relents.

• all in all, it's not a terrible ceremony! in fact, it's quite lovely. until elliot's dad shows up fucking blitzed on cocaine to the reception and starts talking to people who don't know him and vaguely threatening to kill john and dump his body somewhere. good times
