He Can Get HURT!? Helluva Boss 2x4 Episode 4: Western Energy Reaction

[@xmant8842]

You've got to realize though that blitz was hurt just as much as stolas was on that day at ozzie's. That day specifically made him super distant. And even before that, he was afraid of attachment because attachment usually leads to pain, especially romantically for him. Remember, the reason he is so obsessed with M&M's marriage is because he sees them as literally the perfect relationship. Blitz cares, but cant express it yet. The fact that he initiated the text this time shows just how much he cares. Every other text from him was a response to stolas. This one was him messaging stolas first

[@ybatia1230]

Yes that really shows that

[@WeeLassReacts]

Yeah that's true, but I still think Stolas deserves better. It shouldn't be someone giving chocolate and another giving crumbs in the relationship and it certainly doesn't make Blitz a bad character. I'm still angry with him, but he's still a great guy, I just think Stolas deserves more than what he's getting.

[@Rutabega_NG]

​@@WeeLassReacts Stolas absolutely deserves better. Unfortunately Stolas doesn't really have anyone else. Not an adult, anyway.

[@khavens293]

​@@WeeLassReacts They BOTH deserve better. Blitzø & Stolas have the potential to learn (and heal) so much by listening to each other's experiences. Their traumas* and coping mechanisms are almost like puzzle pieces with how they fit together. But it also means that they are so well-matched that their potential to *really* hurt the other person is significantly greater - as we see here. Right now, their relationship is selfish - neither of them have tried to really understand the other's perspective. Season 2 is giving opportunities to SEE how the other one lives, but the characters also need time to reflect upon how the small pieces they are learning about the other that has informed their interactions in the past (and the future) to break their toxic habits. We, the audience, have seen so much more background lore to understand the motivations of Stolas & Blitzø. We have also seen the individual moments of growth. For an example ( I haven't seen too many others comment upon yet), when Striker tells Stolas "some of US had everything taken away by ******* like you", "I don't have to listen to YOUR bullshit", and "[you always] try to talk over US", it seems that Stolas actually has a moment of recognition of the very real class differences between himself and the imps, including Blitzø. The racism Blitzø encounters in the hospital frames this moment very nicely for the audience. [To me], Stolas seems to suddenly realize that Blitzø very likely ALSO resents being interrupted, and that he (Stolas) frequently interrupts or talks over everyone. Look at all his text messages again, in this new context. Fuckin' Ouch. *(Others have already detailed their respective histories in your comments, so I'm TL;DRing the well-worn specifics).

[@SwordTune]

Also, according to Blitz, Mox and Millie are both hotties, which isn't the main strength of their perfect relationship but it's definitely a bonus for Blitz.

[@FluffyJackie]

I think something in Moxxie snapped after he stood up to his father.

@@genetlair5999 It's been 2 months lol, but I agree! It was the in-laws, then the truth gas thing, and now his dad. Each one made him more confident, and I think he got far from where he started!

[@apolimeow]

I saw somewhere that the petals falling in the end might be a reference to ‘he loves me he loves me not’ and wanted to analyse it and DAMN THAT HURT So the first time a petal falls is when stoles gets a text from blitz - _he loves me_ The second time a petal falls is when blitz doesn’t reply to his invitation - _he loves me not_ The third time is when Stolas lies on the bed, probably justifying it (he’s probably just busy, or maybe he doesn’t feel like it etc) - _he loves me_ The fourth time is zooming out - _he loves me not_ They’re setting stolitz up for heartbreak AND I DONT LIKE THE FORESHADOWINGS

[@5Geass]

I've been seeing that float around a lot. The first thing I thought was another foreshadow to Stolas's possible death. Second was I saw that theory. Then a thought hit me that it might be the death of the love Stolas has for Blitz. Either way--it's painful.

[@Zach-Reacts]

While I don't disagree that Blitzø should treat Stolas better, he keeps letting it go because he knows Blitzø is a big-ass bag of untreated trauma with poor communication skills. It's not going to suddenly switch just because someone wants him to, especially someone Blitzø sees as so far above him, not just physically but socially. Like their relationship started with Blitzø being BOUGHT by Stolas's dad with the payment of $5 and a slim fit condom & being forced into it by his own dad in order to steal from them. Not exactly a good starting point, especially 25 years later. I believe that they can work it out, but I also know that it's gonna take a LOT of time & Blitzø needs to figure his shit out first.

[@DanGamingFan2406]

Moxxie: "What does he look like your highness?" Stolas: "Sexy?" Moxxie: "THAT'S STRIKER SIR." The fact that that's all Stolas said, and that that's all it took for Moxxie to know. This show's writing is excellent. And I love that we finally got to see Moxxie win not one, but two full on fights in this episode. He is a hired hitman for a reason.

[@Ixshs3a]

Not moxxie thinking striker is hot 😂

[@SwordTune]

Blitzo doesn't see himself in a romantic relationship with Stolas. The plot hasn't quite cleared up the insecurities he has with being an object of desire for Stolas and nothing more. Although Blitzo recognizes there's something else there, he's not prepared to address it. I don't think it's fair to expect Blitz to be throwing himself at Stolas yet, especially since Blitzo seems to have issues dealing with people he's close to. He's clingy and needy, possibly from fear of loss/abandonment, and the idea that Stolas can bleed, and thus be killed, might make him afraid to go any further.

[@WeeLassReacts]

Very good points! I think its time Stolas accepts this and moves on, this isn't healthy for either of them 💔

[@cupcaketv5673]

I agree. The last point also stood out to me bc on the one hand, someone said Stolas being hurt might've given Blitzø slightly more 'confidence' in approaching him since it shows him that Stolas isn't invincible or anything like that and thus not as much higher as Blitzø as the latter might've thought. But on the other hand your point is also very good imo.

[@DanGamingFan2406]

Blitzø's "He can get hurt?" line really hit me right in the feels. His facial expression and tone of voice just shows how surprised he is that a demon as powerful as him and so high up in the hierarchy could get that injured. And the scene right after? I've never gotten so emotional from a text chain before. I know Blitzø is afraid of getting emotionally close to anyone, for fear of driving them away, but that's exactly what he's going to do if he doesn't stop. The fact that Stolas is just accepting it is absolutely heartbreaking.

[@royalrosepetal]

It also shows his inexperience with the weaponry used to harm royalty

[@inkblooded1058]

And it also hits harder when you consider that it might have less to do with Stolas' position as a royal, and more to do with the fact that, as we saw from Blitzø's fever dream in Truth Seekers, he views Stolas as this untouchable figure of immense power and prestige. In Blitzø's head, Stolas is invincible, because with the way he views him right now in his own mind - with almost worship and reverence, and plenty of fear as well - Blitzø can't imagine a world without Stolas in it. And he came close to that.

[@DavidRomigJr]

“You okay with that?” Blitzø actually started the conversation and it was more than 2 words and it was out of concern. Compare that to all the other text conversations. I find that huge. But… then he didn’t answer Stollas when he said he could come visit. Two steps forward, one step back.

[@tristanmilner9511]

The reason for Loona not talking is because her VA lost her fiancé to cancer recently.

[@Samhain-Salem]

I literally cried when Blitz said "He can get hurt?..."

[@Rutabega_NG]

Stolas is royal, he can't really be hurt by conventional weapons, so that's where that shock came from. Blitzø is concerned about Stolas, his reaction shows that, but he's as broken as Stolas and doesn't know how to express it. Stolas doesn't have anyone else, not another adult, anyway. He's never seen how a healthy romantic relationship looks, or even how a healthy friendship looks. He's put up with Blitzø because he was his first friend, and his first lover (Stella was a duty, a task to be completed, on both ends, so that doesn't count). He's going to effectively be alone if/when he cuts off Blitzø, and that's a terrifying thought for anyone. But maybe now he's finally got his eyes open and knows that no matter what, no matter how they may actually feel about one another, this is not healthy and it's not helping.

Striker's voice goes hard in this one tho Poor blitz must be so worried

[@SilverScribe85]

As much as I loved Reedus' version of Striker, Ed's was far more menacing

[@haldon12]

That ending is gut wrenching, but authentic. Emotionally abused people like Stolas will latch onto whatever crumbs of affection they get. I'm so glad Stolas is seeing how bad Blitz is for him - if he's going to heal, he needs to be willing to give up on what he's been settling for, but it cuts like knife, thinking (knowing) that if you give it up, nothing better will ever cone your way.

[@christopherjunkins]

You also have to realize that Bliz is also in a very similar boat. Everyone he's ever been close to or loved as either abandoned him or died... (theories on that last part). Thus Blitz has a hard time opening up emotionally for fear of it happening all over again. Blitz is going to have to overcome this to have better relationships with the people around him, especially Stolas. Then there's the fact that you can see he genuinely cares for Stolas he just doesn't know how to express it without opening up ... again something he will have to do. I mean look at how Blitz has been with M&M after the episode "Truth Seekers."

[@heytallman]

I got incredible emotional whiplash at the end of this episode. I was pausing all the text messages to read them all and I honestly took Blitzø's "git bevver swoon" as him putting in literally more effort than he ever has. Like, 3 words more than the one letter responses he had been giving, and it was the first time Blitzø initiated any kind of talk between them. But then the lack of response right after just made me so sad. I think Stolas saw that the one text was more than he had ever gotten but still, it hurts so bad to just get ghosted after that and after seeing the "he's typing" notification. Broke my heart!

[@DesMuttYS]

While I get what you are saying at the end, I also think you are missing something key. It's a bit of irony, but Blitz is being distant to protect himself from getting too emotionally involved so he doesn't get hurt. That means that he is unfortunately hurting those around him, and in so doing, is going to end up in the very situation he tried to avoid. Keep in mind: His father didn't really care for him; his mother likely died; his childhood best friend abandoned him; and while we know he has sister in rehab, we don't know what happened between them, but we do know they were close (being in a show together), and now are distant. So, in his life, everyone that Blitz cared for and was close to abandoned him one way or another. As such, it makes him scared of being emotionally open, because he is afraid of it happening again. That was a big part of why he was so upset after Ozzie's. Not only was his former best friend making fun of him -- and was joined by Blitz's ex, Verosika -- but when Stolas had a chance to stand up for Blitz, Stolas instead hid behind a menu and pretended not to see anything. It was a moment when Blitz needed someone, and instead wound up feeling abandoned. Made just that much worse by the fact that in the same situation, Millie came to Moxxie's defense. Now, I'm not condoning Blitz's behavior -- as I said before, by doing so, he is creating the very situation he is trying to avoid -- but I can understand where it is coming from. Also, I'm pretty certain that as the series continues, Blitz will slowly open up to Stolas more and more. Similar to how he hasn't been picking on Moxxie as much since "Truth Seekers."

[@mollywantshugs5944]

More than anything, Blitz is deeply insecure. I think he definitely cares but is afraid to be open with Stolas.

I am too disappointed that Stolas didn't get sth more or a visit but Blitz is struggling so much. Since he started this thing with Stolas he's kept it non-romantic cause he's so afraid of intimacy. As we saw in his dilutions, it's obvious that Blitz hates himself, and that's why he's not even trying to fix his problems, he's made this terrible image of himself that can't be any other way. Especially after Ozzie's he's realized how much he has messed stolas' life up and can't seem to get over that he makes the people around him miserable, and that's obvious since he keeps being Distant, even through texts. After seeing what could've happened to Stolas, the importance of the situation he's shocked, he understood Stolas could be hurt and he wasn't there to help him, he could've lost him and that's just beating him up more with guilt. The invitation to the hospital from Stolas seems so personal and he can't even see him Right now i believe, he's slowly digging his own Grave. It's sad, he could be so much more but he's scared, and that's what so interesting about this character for me, i want to see the development and im truly enjoying the suffering of the slow burn.

I think it’s also important to remember that Blitzø and Stolas aren’t in a relationship so although it hurts Stolas to not have Blitzø be affectionate he can’t end a romantic relationship that doesn’t exist. However I think that’s what’s interesting about their relationship, it’s currently at a sort of rock bottom so although it could technically just end all together, I don’t see that happening so the only other way to go is up.

its interesting that you were surprised Stolas could be hurt, you said you thought he was too big & powerful (paraphrase), but Blitzø's similar reaction made you so upset with him "of COURSE he can get hurt!" lmao just the switch up got me ^^; a detail that gets lost... Blitzø doesn't type a lot of words to ANYONE. not even Millie when she's asking him about his favorite things, assumedly he calls her back instead. He is illiterate and struggles to text/read/write etc. We see it all through the entire show and its no exception here. He uses emoji and speech-to-text usually (badly) so that Git Bevver Swoon was a lot more than it seems./ Also Stolas means only the best but his messages are a anxiety nightmare to try to digest for someone that struggles to read, and doubly so for someone that's insecure in relationships. He frequently says something, panics, changes to something else, panics and says to forget the whole thing. I think those messages are not so easy to read from a perspective of someone that thinks you only like them as a booty call. Which is the other detail I feel like you might have forgotten? They aren't dating, not even CLOSE to dating. The last honest conversation they have on screen before Western Energy is after Ozzie's Blitzø is the honest straightforward one saying "don't try to trick me into comin into the house when I know this is just about you wanting me to fck you!" after he had tried to turn down Stolas. If a guy was asking you into his place to "cuddle" after acting embarrassed to be seen with you in public...I might not feel so nice toward him. Yet Blitzø STILL wasn't mad at Stolas, he even apologizes for... not being in the mood to "put out".... And to just capo it off, we know Stolas loves Blitz, but he did NOT clarify to Blitz that they were anything but contractual sex.... he just says "ok goodnight" which imo sounds more like he is agreeing with Blitz's fear/statement that its all just physical.

[@tahraethestoryteller6079]

Welp most of the main cast has been traumatized 🥲

[@briarrose8154]

Trauma can justify why blitz feels the way he does BUT THAT DOESN’T MEAN ITS HEALTHY FOR STOLAS TO SETTLE FOR THAT. I think ppl keep missing that

[@sideshowman9686]

Got me in the feels too 😥. For Blitzo, the reason he is so dismissal of Stolaz, I think it's his abandonment issues. Here's my theory: He's afraid to love, because somebody important left long ago and now he thinks deep inside that he is just unlovable. So if someone gets too close to him, they will figure out his true, unlovable self and leave him. That means every time someone gets too close to him, he leaves first, before that can happen. That means the only stable and lasting relationships that he is comfortable in are transactional. People that can't leave. That means his employees, his adopted daughter (family can't leave, plus she's depentend on him) and of course his very transactional relationship with Stolaz that he is not comfortable to bring to another level. Plus I think his over the top sex drive is to cover his lack of emotional connection with physical connection. A coping mechanism. On a side note, I think this is also what happened with Verosika. If you look at her design, she has a heart-shaped Blitzo tattoo on her arm. Crossed out. I think she was actually in love with him and when she told him, he panicked and sabotaged the relationship. Hurt and left her, before she had the chance to abandon him (which was only gonna happen in his head of course).

[@Anime-Doof]

How many backup phones do Stolas and Blitz have?

[@sortascouseace]

My reading from this episode in regards to blitz is that he has a front to hold up where he is incapable of allowing himself to be emotionally vulnerable and there for someone, like in s1 e6 we learn that blitz hates himself and is unable to "fathom proper intimacy" probably arising from a traumatic event in his past, he doesnt allow anyone to get close to him but is obsessed with m&m and wants what they have, he wants a loving relationship but doesnt allow himself to take the step and break down his walls to allow stolas in. Hiding behind crudity, sex and machismo as thats the only way he can feel something

[@umbrosia5202]

I think this is Blitz's last chance to change. The accident should be his wake up call. At least he tried to reply this time. If he can't give more than these crumbs, than Stolas has to move on. But to be fair, I really hope he can get it rigth, because it is obvious that they care for each other and it would just be sad if they wouldn't come together.

[@KingVasuki]

Some people have commented on how Blitz and Stolas should NOT get together because it would be a very toxic relationship, which I agree, but I think that's based on the idea that people cannot overcome their traumas and form a better relationship with time and proper communication. Which could happen, especially since Blitz's insecurities seem very deep-rooted, but I think it's fine if the show wants to explore how much of a slow boil it is to work through that level of problems with someone else... especially now that the showrunners finally gave us some continuity, even if it was through an exchange of text messages.

[@AstralMuffin105]

Even though Stolas does totally deserve better, I don't think it's exactly fair to blame Blitz for acting like that. We've seen time and time again that he has attachment issues, and with the way his and Stolas' relationship has been going, I think he's starting to realize that Stolas does actually care about him as more than a sexual object. He just doesn't know how to truly process those feelings and that's why he didn't know how to respond to Stolas. I really want them to be open and honest with each other, to talk about the issues they both have with relationships, so they can sort them out together and make something work.

[@killerklown94]

No, he's emotionally stunted and doesn't know how to deal with tough situations at all. Doesn't excuse his actions at all, just explains them.

[@AWest-en5ee]

Well, I don't think Blitzo could text differently...the Dhorks episode showed that he's terrified of letting people get too close and always ends up hurting them and driving them away, and it's been shown that his relationship with spelling is platonic at best, so he probably never had any schooling...which he is likely self-conscious about on some level. So while he's a dickish texter, he is a dick because of his past. He was genuinely shocked that Stolas got hurt though, so maybe it will be a turning point. Or maybe not... regardless, it is an episode that hits you in the feelz.

I have no excuses other then what others have said in other comments in regards to how Blitz treats Stolas when he is recovering. But I don't think it's fair to yell at him for taking his adopted daughter - who is literally terrified of shots and doctors/hospital settings - to get said shots himself so he can comfort her and it would maybe hopefully less stressful for her. As someone who is terrified of needles it surprises me sometimes how just a simple hand to hold and squeeze can be so helpful. And very clearly Loona needs way more then a hand to hold, I also don't really think that scene is as funny as it might have been intended. I just see a terrified daughter who must have been so abused in the past in some way for her to react in such a way to that setting in the first place. I mean at this point all we know is she ended up in a cage for a very long time before Blitz adopted her. The rest of it, fair yes, Blitz needs to find it in himself to talk to Stolas so they can both work out their issues. But I have to respect him being there for his daughter at least. *Edited to say, yes yes I know I didn't put the 'O' at the end of his name. In my defense I know it's supposed to be silent anyway and I've seen people get yelled at for putting just a regular o instead of the one with a slash through it. I just don't know how to make that special o so I left it off... Please don't be mad...

[@Ultracharge9]

14:38 Idk why but I burst out laughing when I heard "She's a fucking chicken" Though sadly, that didn't stop people from saying that to Chica from FNaF

[@theblamegame5711]

I agree totally that Stolas deserves better but I want blitz to be the one to give him better because blitz also deserves good things and they would be so good to each other if they would just communicate honestly. Even though blitz is so scared to love we have seen how fiercely he loves when he does (M and M and loona} and I absolutely want that kind of love for Stolas because there has been a huge gaping hole of it all his life and blitz needs to know how absolutely adored he is. stolas needs to be totally clear about what he wants from blitz, with straight sentences that leave no room for misunderstanding and blitz, you my dear sir needs to grow a pair.

[@sarahelroub1800]

In regards to blitz’s short message in the hospital scene, if you pay attention to the order of the messages stolas always messaged first, this was the first time blitz messaged him first that’s why stolas was happy about it.

[@ashlynwolff]

14:38 " She's Not even Attractive! SHE'S A FUCKING CHICKEN!" 🤣🤣 THAT was GOLDEN one. Most likely, by Goetia standards she is attractive but Stolas never found her like that way. Main reason for her being that mean to him. I really love your reactions, they're so sincere and adorable 🥰 20:28 same reaction while reading messages 💔 23:02 so True, he really deserves better 23:22 Who knows, Blitzø had already used Stolas for his gain (stole the book after fucking him Literally and Figuratively, lied to him about the date just to get in Ozzie's to stalk M&M) and he always got away with that without any harm (okay, in Ozzie's he was hurt Emotionally). What I mean Stolas wasn't mad at him for any of that because he enjoyed spending time with Blitzø. But This time can be the really LAST STRAW.

[@Celtic1020]

In Blitzo's defense, Stolas is a demon lord, which makes him mostly invincible. So it caught him off-guard that he was actually in danger. It caught Stolas off-guard too.

[@G.D.G.]

I get your frustration with him acting this way, but in the same time - give him time. For Blitz, he'd much rather Stolas used him as a toy then him offering a healthy relationship. Thats just how his brain works. Dont get me wrong, just like me, he is FULLY aware its not healthy, but... the fear of being in a healthy relationship is paralyzing. Ive broken relationships because my partners were TOO HEALTHY. Ive gotten mad that they didnt hit me or insult me - purely because thats all i know growing up. For Blitz, its his trauma and what he believes he deserves speaking. He doesnt feel worthy of love. Our worth and what we believe we deserve first comes from our parents. Blitz dad sold him for a slim condom. Now imagine knowing fully well that you are worthless, but a royal starts going on and on that they love you? Would you believe that? Its bs in his eyes. Its a royal blueblood making fun of him, a low level imp. Blitz has showed us multiple times in the series that he wants to be loved, but is terrified. He'll run from a healthy relationship every time UNTIL he heals that trauma. Him texting Stolas first is already a big step. Its showing attachment. Something hes terrified of! This character HAS TO do a 180, but that takes ALOT of healing. He is showing us his first major leap (the text).

[@allysonaham7190]

FUN FACT: In this episode Striker is voiced by Edward Bosco. Edward voiced a lot of characters in this franchise, including Millie's dad from episode 5, the bouncer from episode 7, the hound from the unreleased episode 8, and most notably Alastor from the Hazbin Hotel pilot.

[@graveyardshift2100]

"He can get hurt?" - Blitz/Lois Lane

[@delmarethehybrid9307]

There's been some possible (but NOT confirmed) hinting that Stolas might get into a different relationship with someone other than Blitz after this; I hope that's the case, not because of drama, but because this could help Blitz fully realize that he likes Stolas, and hopefully become more genuine and open. We do have 4 seasons planned, and there will be 12 episodes in total with this season alone, so there is time for this to possibly happen! :)

[@brigade7678]

woah thats quite a claim, where did you see that??

[@lasagnafrenchtoasthoneybutter]

I get that Blitz should have done more for Stolas, but I also empathize with the whole one word texts. it make sense though, especially with how he was used to not having a lot of meaningful relationships so talking in a romantic sense would be incredibly difficult for him, even more so when you think about his most recent ex and what their relationship was probably like.

[@tatsumisakamai5372]

the reason why Loona hasn't had any line in this ep and the exes one is because her Voice Actress, Erica Lindbeck, is taking a bit of a Grieving period for her Fiance who passed away from cancer.

[@googleisacruelmistress1910]

An interesting detailis that it appears to have been the first time Blitz actually texted Stolas first

[@Scardy]

Stolas is so desperate for affection that he just clings to what scraps Blitz can throw his way.

[@AmazingLoop]

the Space button is dying

[@mattiekarwin3667]

Screw it, time to vent. Yes, Stolas deserves better than Blitz. No argument. But Blitz, at least as far as he knows, has no reason to genuinely believe Stolas gives a damn about him. He was raised by an asshat that taught him words mean nothing, so literally nothing Stolas says can be an actual act of kindness for Blitz. And the one time, the ONE TIME Blitz actually let himself be vulnerable to Stolas.. Stolas recoiled. He rejected him. As far as Blitz has been told, Stolas sees him as a sex toy and nothing else. Something to be ashamed of being seen in public with. Yes, I know that's ironic because Stolas was the one who wanted to go out on a date, but Stolas is also the one who fucking hid his face. It was **intentionally** ironic. Thats why Stolas didn't argue when Blitz said 'all we are is you wanting me to fuck you', because he knew that his actions convinced him more than his words ever could. Blitz gets so much shit he doesn't deserve which is not something i thought I'd ever say about a sociopathic demon literally paid to murder without morals. Edit for some grammar and to add: The reason i say, as far as we know, is that that magical missing episode, purely hypothetically, could be the episode out that git resolved. I doubt it, as what i saw pointed morebto a Luna specific episode, but still. I'm not allowed to say it definitely wouldn't have contained that, effecting the flow of writing in the aftermath. I doubt it, but it could be true.

[@blueeyedraven396]

After the final message, the image shows that implies Blitz's typing something, then it disappears. When I watched it, I'm imagining him stopping because he was feeling guilty. Blitz probably assumed that even though Stolas was kidnapped, he couldn't truly get hurt and thought it was another attempt at getting Blitz's attention. Blitz's reaction when he found out Stolas was hurt seemed genuine.

[@feliperuiz7458]

Remember when Stolas sang to his Daugther when she was little? and remember the line: "when i'm gonne you'll be okay"? i've never related to any other Stolas moment but this

[@TheNitpickChick]

While I fully agree that Stolas has been through so much shit, and that he 100% deserves better than Blitzo seemingly stringing him along, I feel like it’s unfair to put all of the blame for the relationship not working solely on Blitzo’s shoulders. Both of them have been unable to properly communicate with each other, and it’s hurting them both, deeply, in the long run. They both need serious therapy, but as that’s likely difficult to find in Hell, they both at the very least need to be able to sit down and actually _talk_ to each other. Stolas needs to know that his affections aren’t one-sided, that Blitzo actually cares for him deeply; it’s just that Blitzo has such a deep and profound amount of self-loathing and self-doubt when it comes to relationships, that he can’t bring himself to believe that Stolas actually loves him back, because Blitzo can’t see anything to love within himself. I think Blitzo needs to feel useful or needed, in order to justify in his mind why people would keep him around. (Loona needs him because he’s her father, who provides for her. Millie and Moxxie need him because he’s their employer, so they depend on him for their income, etc.) Blitzo doesn’t see why Stolas would _need_ him, apart from him providing sex, and so he feels less secure in his standing with Stolas. Blitzo needs to be told just how important he is to Stolas, because I truly don’t think he knows. Stolas was so isolated his whole life, first by his friend-less childhood, and then by his abusive marriage, so he’s never really developed the communication skills needed for a healthy relationship. But, both in childhood, and then later as adults, Blitzo inadvertently gave Stolas a connection that he desperately needed. Blitzo was a light in the dark, a spark that reignited Stolas’ passion for life again, and represented a possible lifeline out of Stolas’ wretched rut of a life. And so Stolas _clung_ to that lifeline like a drowning man, overcompensating, and barrelling past Blitzo’s boundaries, thus making Blitzo think Stolas was only interested in sex, or was using him as a shiny new toy, but wasn’t interested in him, as a person; when in reality, Stolas was mainly interested in literally _anything_ he thought would allow him to spend time with Blitzo, and sex was just the easiest thing, that he knew they both liked. I think, until Ozzy’s, Stolas genuinely thought that Blitzo was pretty much fully on board with their arrangement, and was just playing hard to get at times. It wasn’t until Blitzo stated, with literal tears in his eyes, that their relationship was nothing more than Stolas wanting Blitzo to fuck him, that Stolas truly realized how mistaken in his approach he had been. He realized, likely in horror, just how little choice he’d been giving Blitzo in their relationship, up until that point, especially with the Grimoire deal hanging over Blitzo’s head, essentially forcing Blitzo to have sex with Stolas, in order to keep his business running. While Blitzo does seem to enjoy his time with Stolas, he can’t allow himself to see it as anything but transactional, rather than genuine, because that’s how it’s been framed for most of their relationship. Since Ozzy’s, we can see through the text messages that Stolas has tried hard to course correct things by trying to give Blitzo as much choice as possible on if they spend time together or have sex, and by trying to take the pressure out of the Grimoire deal, but Blitzo is probably more confused by the new dynamic, more than anything, without a proper explanation for why it’s happening. We know Stolas was researching Asmodeus’ crystals, and had made an appointment to meet with Ozzy, so it’s very likely that he’s looking for a way to give Blitzo the ability to travel to Earth and do his job, without forcing him to rely on Stolas’ grimoire, in order to give them both as equal standing as possible in the relationship. If Stolas can get a crystal for Blitzo, and if he can explain properly that he still wants to spend time with Blitzo, but doesn’t want to force him to, if Blitzo truly doesn’t want to, I think that could potentially be a good first step towards them communicating properly (as long as Blitzo doesn’t misinterpret it as a rejection of sorts, which is possible).

[@xrys749]

The funny thing about when Stolas is mocking/egging on Striker, it is actually something one can do to actually survive. If killers have MOs/ fantasies, especially Striker, who wants powerful/rich people to grovel to save themselves. Actually poking at the insecurities can actually put them off and stop them from killing you. The reverse can be true for those who respond violently to negative actions. Depending on the situation, one can save your life. Stolas got smart and he played off the situation as a game. Comparing Striker to Blitzo, saying how much better Blitzo was, "dechubbing" Striker. You will also notice Striker only goes for the kill once Stolas gets dark and defensive. That was Striker's trigger to execute him when Striker thinks he has the most power.

[@Mothloverforever]

the fact that blitz said anything was a lot for him

[@chaitea4724]

Blitzo doesn't deserve Stolas. There. I said it.

[@angelsinthewindow]

Going through the texts again, and not taking into account all the other stuff that we now know about how Blitz is (talking about the last few episodes that have now come out), The fact that Blitz still answered Stolas every time and didn't just ghost him I think does have some props. Sure they are just one to two word answers and that Stolas deserves more, for them to talk out what happen at Ozzie's or to actually figure out where they stand, but he doesn't go without answering him except for that very last post which could of been just Blitz in shock not sure what to say. In season 1, We saw that Blitz put Stolas on top of a thrown, not able to be touched, and Blitz just being this little chained pet. Suddenly, this all mighty person with more power then Blitz could even think of, this person suddenly got hurt and almost died... There needs to be some point when Blitz and Stolas are forced to talk or at least show they care about each other if things are going to keep going for them. Stolas can't keep beating around the bush, and Blitz can't keep on hiding from his problems. Thats my feeling at least.

[@DaremoKamen]

I think we've been seeing Moxie's confidence and sense of security increasing over time. The constant support of Millie is vital of course, but I think standing up to Millie's parents was his first major step. Then his bad trip in Truth Seekers was a second big step. Standing up to and defying his father was the most recent big step.

[@cupcaketv5673]

What always pains me a bit whenever I think about it is that at the end of the day, neither of them can fully heal without working on themselves AND starting to love themselves, alone. That doesn't mean they should distance themselves from everyone else, I just think most of their healing relies on themselves almost without any outer love. Though of course I can't say that with 100% clarity/certaintly since I only know so much. And to be honest, if they never had anyone truly love them I don't expect them to know how to heal without any outer help (aside from the fact that everyone needs help with healing). But I'd say that at least a big part of their healing depends on them as individuals. And it just pains me a little to think about because of how hard that can be.

[@FlareTheMythical]

The fact that he points sharp objects like a knife that can wound an overlord of hell and breaking bones is just par for the course when they have sex I need to know how rough of the sex they have for that to just be the norm! 🤣🤓🧡🤓
