Regarding Octavia's song I Will Be Okay:

The line "I'll just get older and you'll only know my name" implies that Stolas had trouble keeping up with her interests when he began his affair with Blitzø. Now that he's estranged from her for the entirety of his sentence, he has no way of finding out what she’s doing or who she's becoming unless some news about her gets out to Hell’s general public. When he reclaims his crown in a hundred years, the daughter he knew at the start of his banishment will be a distant memory, replaced by a stranger he won’t even recognize or know anything about except her name and the fact she was once his beloved child.

Stolas realizes the inverse of this too, mournfully telling Blitzø that he’ll be a stranger to her by the time he's allowed to regain his title. Why? Because his experiences during his century living as a commoner will inevitably shape him into a different person than he was before his banishment, meaning that all she’ll know about him is his name.

Nearing the end of the song, the scene begins a cataclysm of meteors showering from above and the ground exploding beneath her. Back in the episode "Loo Loo Land", she listens to a song called "My World Is Burning Down Around Me" by 'F*ck You, Dad' (the band) while her mom Stella is screaming at her dad Stolas about the affair with the imp Blitzø. The song title serves as a pun that her dad has supposedly ruined the family structure and she doesn't feel comfortable at home anymore and, when they reconcile at the theme park, Blitzø's fight with Robo Fizz results in the place burning down around them on their way out. Stolas tries to keep her world together that is their own relationship as father and daughter. Unfortunately, that falls apart in "Mastermind", which Stolas was willing to die for his lover after he previously promised to "never leave her". Her song tells how she's questioning if her dad's love ever existed. Now that he has left, her world is now burning down around her with no one to support it and she contemplates carrying on in her life without him. It takes a look at the box of her father's antidepressants before she decides to unironically say "F*ck you, dad" without actually saying it by the end of this episode, misguided as it is without knowing the additional context of those pills.

When Octavia asks Stolas if she was just an obligation to him, it hits harder when you remember that she actually was since it is usually a parent's duty to raise their child. On the political and aristocratic side, Stolas and Stella were arranged for the sole purpose of birthing her as a precautionary heir. As her father of that family, it's his obligation to raise her enough to be worthy of his legacy. When he saw how precious she turned out to be, it gave him a new sense duty out of love to raise her less as an heir and more as his pride and joy of a daughter.

The scene where Octavia decides to leave Stolas - it wasn’t because she hated him, or even Stella and Andrealphus’ manipulations. It was because she believes it’s her fault that Stolas is so miserable that he had to take antidepressants, and that he stayed in a miserable marriage purely out of obligation towards her. Octavia believes it’s better that Stolas be with Blitzø and be happy for once, which was why she also asked beforehand if it's why Stolas didn't hesitate when the chance to "leave" her appeared.

There is the fact that Octavia accused Stolas of choosing Blitzø over her sounds like jealousy, but then there were all of his efforts to protect her and make her happy over the years before the series began. Especially in "Loo Loo Land", none of the imps who attacked Stolas ever connected Octavia as his daughter because he was the bigger target. What's more, when they are alone, the prince is shown capable of protecting them both. With portraits in the mansion of them both being happy, it is possible that there hasn't been a single moment so dangerous that it actually required Stolas to risk his own life for Via like how he did for Blitzø in "Mastermind", and hopes that will never happen. For all of his actions that drove them apart, it is shown in "Western Energy" how much he would still be willing to sacrifice his life to protect Via if he ever has to, just by threatening someone like Striker.

THE SCREAM I SCREAMED I LOVE THEM SO MUCH YOUR HONOR!!! 😭

OK BUT IMAGINE BEING STOLAS

Literally a tragic Disney princess probably crying his eyeliner off and watching hella-novella literally heartbroken after what went down on the full moon-

And your phone dings

It’s a text

From Blitzo

After a huge fight

So

after freaking out

Wondering what he possibly could have said

You finally hype yourself up enough to finally check the text with desperate, final-bit-of-hopefullness anticipation

And

It’s fucking

THIS

Stolas is so much stronger than me theres nothing in the world that could have stopped me from instant portal-ing to him and killing him right then and there.

Alright Apology Tour... I don't even know where to start for this episode.

So I'll start with this statement:

I want them to make it work.

Surprise, surprise but I think that when stolas and blitz aren't forcing it, they are actually cute together.

This is my favorite scene from the episode because stolas just falls into blitz's arms and blitz just holds him.

He cares, it's obvious that blitz cares but I think he's still unaware of how much. I also think that stolas know that blitz cares.

In the conversation at the beginning of the episode there are two scenes that kinda prove this.

In the first scene blitz is talking about how relationships are boring and not worth it, and stolas leans on the table and basically asks him if he thinks that then what are they doing now.

Which is a valid question, because blitz is clearly fighting for them right now. He's doing a terrible job and saying all the wrong things but he is there. Stolas understandably gets annoyed and walks off when blitz side steps the question.

The next scene where we see that stolas is aware at least a little of how blitz feels is when he's fake apologizing. He pretty much says 'oh I'm supposed to apologize for thinking so badly of myself I push people who actually care about me away? And stolas just says yes.

There are moments of clarity that tell me blitz is completely aware of his faults but other moments that make me think differently. When stolas says he sounds like striker he denied it. Only to continue to mock stoas for being a prince and completely disrespecting him.

I feel like if blitz had approached the conversation in the garden like he had the one at the party things would have gone better.

Speaking of the party. The stolas song was amazing, and it was basically about how stolas still has feeling for blitz but he just doesn't think blitz cares. Which is a fair feeling since blitz left the garden basically telling stolas he'd apologize to everyone but him. Which was a petty thing to say.

Stolas hating the party despite the song is also really funny, up until the end of the episode that is. Stolas complained to himself the entire time how ridiculous and petty it is to host a party like this every year, he even continues that thought process while drunk.

Also while drunk stolas explained to blitz how he's looking for a romantic love. He wants to be loved and wanted by someone special a conversation that of course makes blitz feel bad but stolas can't see that.

This is the moment that cemented my belief of wanting them together. They're both so casual in this scene stolas because he's drunk and blitz because he's feeling vulnerable and guilty.

They still have a natural chemistry and quick witty dialog that flows naturally. They fit well together even when fighting, but only when they're not forcing the relationship. Only when stolas doesn't have blitz on a pedestal, and when blitz isn't blaming stolas for all of his problems. As equals they work.

I wanna see them make up.

Stolas is a genuinely nice person, but has a massive problem in failing to understand the feelings of the people around him. In his mind, if he plans something out that, in the best case scenario, will make himself and the person he is with happy. Although he loves Blitzo and his daughter Octavia very dearly, he does have a tendency to be wrapped up in his own emotions to the point where it seems difficult for him to express them, likely due to being lonely and neglected for most of his life.

Despite Blitzo being very clear about his personal reservations with their relationship, Stolas doesn't seem to understand just how much of the power imbalance is present and how he needs to talk things through with the Imp for things to work out between them. In "Full Moon", where Stolas ends up causing Blitzo to reject him because he didn't properly explain why he wanted his grimoire back and doesn't give enough time for Blitzo to process his feelings. This caused the imp to panic and lay open his objections with Stolas, as he genuinely cannot understand Blitzo's problems and decides to break things off with him. The next episode "Apology Tour" showed that he does recognize he might have some faults in their relationship failing, only for Verosika to stop the realization by insisting that everything is Blitzo's fault during the song.

the squid game director saw the girlies cry over doomed toxic old man yaoi stolitz and so he decided to create 457

Friendly reminder: this silly little red lizard is his light and this bird is his heart.

Okay, you can continue now. Have a nice day. 🥰

[birdy-babe]

Ok but fr

Blitz literally got into a world shattering breakup with the love of his life his situationship

And this man literally

went home

thought to himself "Hmmm... how do I fix this"

And his solution was:

"ur gay" memes

He thought. He really thought- truly believed-

[fujosh1dreamer]

Just wanted to point out something small because everyone keeps asking why Blitz didn't burn the taxidermy owls himself, and it's like.... hmm...

I wonder why Blitz, who has trauma with fire, wouldn't want to destroy someone he cares about directly even as a type of catharsis???

I just can't put my finger on it.
