I love how Stolas' feelings for Blitz do change throughout the course of the show, and he isn't just automatically head over heels for him.

Loo Loo Land takes place around the beginning of their arrangement, and while Stolas still cared for Blitz around that time, it's to a much lesser degree. He doesn't seem as concerned for his safety, almost dismisses it in a way. I think during this time Stolas still sees Blitz as this "invulnerable knight in shining armor", he isn't aware of his walls.

Seeing Stars takes place immediately after Ozzie's, and Stolas reacts completely differently to how he reacted in Loo Loo Land. Stolas looks genuinely worried and concerned, he reaches his hand out and he's thinking, 'Should I help him?'

The reason for this change? Ozzie's happened and Stolas is made aware of what Blitz's thoughts on the relationship were, that it was always only about sex. Stolas, for the first time is made aware of the walls Blitz puts up.

Blitz cares about Stolas, you can’t change my mind.

Oh I am seeing stars. I intended to lay this out on the lounge room floor last night. I got a bit carried away with a cushion cover design and didn't get either thing done. I was up super early this morning (eczema itch! kept me awake!!!) so I got the bin of hexies out and cleared the lounge room floor and spent an hour laying them all out. I wanted to see if I had made all the rows. Turns out I had made too many rows, didn't need all the eights. I will do some rows top and bottom once I have constructed and attached the side units, so next year some time. Next job is to stack and label the side units so they are ready to construct. I will have to figure out how to store them too. The star is stored rolled around a pool noodle but it seems to be stretching a bit as it no longer lies flat when I put it on the floor.

Human Stolas Appreciation Post .

Okay. FINE. i fish into my brain to bring you jayke standing sandwich. Or, or, or, jayke pool sammich where they corner you. OR, jayke massage sammich where one can't help but hump you from the back as the other eats you out or fingers you. OR- okay that's enough.

that's not enough actually because, imagine if Jake is slobbering all over your tits, finger fucking you from the front only for jay to be in the back rubbing himself against your ass, then shoving jake's fingers out of the way to push in, all while whispering something like "you can take us both, it's okay, right?"

Sorry I’m still not over that scene of Blitz seeing Stolas’ human form for the first time so I’m going to break it down frame by frame

Initial reaction. He’s a little confused and shocked, he didn’t seem to know that Stolas had a human disguise. His eyebrow is quirked and his mouth is wide open in shock, flabbergasted, what he’s seeing hasn’t really set in emotionally yet.

His expression starts to soften, he starts to flush (I think those two little black lines are a blush?) as he really takes it all in (that’s what she said) the “totally just sexual and nothing more” feelings are just starting to pop up.

This is “I’m fucked” level 2. His pupils start to dilate as those pesky confusing complicated feelings have really set in and are visibly expressed as those impenetrable emotional walls haven’t come up yet. He really likes Stolas whether he’s a human or a bird. This is the purest most genuine most emotional vulnerable face of this set.

And this is where the fear and anxiety come in and those walls start to come back up. His pupils contract in stress as his established fear of intimacy hits him in full force. He’s starting to really think about what he’s feeling and he doesn’t like it. This whole deal was supposed to be sexual and superficial, nothing more. In Blitz’ mind, Stolas is using him and he’s using Stolas right back. He thinks that high class demons don’t care about him and the other imps and just want to take what they want from them. These feelings of genuine affection make everything so much more complicated both for Blitz and his mental state as well as the deal between him and Stolas. He doesn’t want to think about it, it scares him, so he starts to push those feelings back down in the locked box where they belong. The walls are back up and at this point, Blitz’s mind is at DEFCON 3.

So I see a lot of complaints about Seeings Stars having too much tonal dissonance after Ozzie’s because Blitz and Stolas aren’t acting like a situationship that just had a major emotional breakdown, and I don’t necessarily disagree with the concept, but I think somet things are being missed here:

1. Blitz and Stolas are both great at compartmentalizing. They’re in the human world on a mission. They don’t have time to act like awkward high schoolers. There is a child running around with a majorly powerful artifact in a dangerous, unfamiliar city. They can be weird around each other later

2. Stolas is no longer masking his autism. This episode is crucial to showing why the two of them actually get along so well. Once Stolas no longer copies the behavior of telenovellas and BookTok books, he and Blitz have great banter. They’re on the same wavelength. He may be dependent on Blitz to take him around the human world, but he can hold his own just fine. (He’s also fucking hilarious). It’s THIS personality, the sassy, confident, caring one, the REAL one, that Blitz fell for.

Idk, maybe this episode is just one of those that should have been moved to Season One before Ozzie’s? I get why people are a little off-put by the filler after Ozzie’s ending so seriously, but I also…don’t? Like we do nothing but complain about how much we want filler for character development, and then we get it, and you shit all over it?

Something something parallels ahhhhh

I think it's interesting how Blitzø reacts to Stolas taking charge, showing off his powers, and generally being dominant.

[daddyhoothoot]

Blitzø looks so smug

[helluvahusker]

Usually its Blitzø blowing things up and setting things on fire but I'm glad Stolas got to do it in Seeing Stars

[666news-and-horoscopes]

Stolas offers another rebuke to Stella.
