HELLUVA BOSS - APOLOGY TOUR // S2: Episode 9 Reaction!!

[@sherm698]

Out of Blitzø's half-assed apology tour, it's comforting to know that he has real feelings in his apologies to Stolas and Verosika, 2 exes who arguably got the worst moments out of being with him. I hope he truly does change.

[@Souphover]

Yeah Same

[@637arsen5]

Ngl Verosika is a pretty relatable character. She’s a succubus so she has to whore around because of what she is. That alone means she would need to be detached from feelings. So the one time she lets herself gain feelings and I’m assuming the first time they came out. They got rejected and abandoned. Which is automatically 5x worse since it’s blitz. Leaving her angry. We need her episode of somewhat recollection or having her help him properly apologize to all the exes

[@CeltiesSin]

I appreciate y’all’s perspective. There’s so many reactors or commenters like “but blitz has TrAuMa 🥺” nah dude. Nobody is missing the fact that blitz has trauma, but that’s not an excuse to treat people shitty. Everyone has trauma, but it’s up to that person to be better.

THIS!! ^ 100% this. Honestly makes us side eye some people

[@LilyBiby-dp9bi]

So glad they’re are actually sane people in this fandom cuz I’m getting tired of pretending stolas is as bad as mfs have made him out to be.

[@CryingClouds1]

He may not be as bad as stolas but idk why yall are acting like stolas gets all the shit like no blitz’s is repeatedly getting shit for his actions but never stolas at all cause everyone sees him as snow flake who could never do any bad whether it’s unintentional or not it doesn’t matter and he needs to be held accountable for his actions just as much as blitz is again and again

[@LilyBiby-dp9bi]

@@CryingClouds1 you are so right, he should be held accountable for using language blitz hates and be more aware of the way imps are treated, but here is the thing , that can be solved in one just one episode because the difference about blitz and stolas is that stolas isn’t a dick. Unlike blitz if someone just simply explained to stolas why what he said was fucked he’d instantly apologise and try to make things right. Blitz on the other head in this same episode had stolas telling him how he genuinely feel and told him multiple times “no” “stop” “I’m uncomfortable” and what did blitz do? Let’s be real if blitz wasn’t as much of a fun character as he is y’all would be crucifying him. +stolas is already being punished from ep one for his deal with blitz, bro literally lost his family and “relationship” with the person he loved, got assassinated and will continue to be punished (rewatch the trailer) for his decision. But blitz gets held accountable for his shity actions witch are arguably more worst and more important to Andreas BECAUSE of his walls and trauma response and y’all baby the shit out if him for it but in the same breath justifying it just so you don’t admit he’s a shity person To quote Verosika here “oh poor blitz having to understand that his actions affect other people’s fefes, bitch please.”

[@G.D.G.]

​@@LilyBiby-dp9bi I'm not sure where you seen people defending Blitz cause the ONLY think I've seen is people giving Stolas excuses for his shit behavior. Stop excusing him - he's messed up a lot. In the last two episodes especially. You guys like to excuse Stolas bad behavior with his upbringing and trauma, but blame Blitz for his upbringing and trauma. Stolas messed up MORE THEN BLITZ in the last two episodes.

[@MissterClown]

"Its like a train wreck and you cant look away..." amen dude xD

[@PetarSon]

Something tells me that this song we hear at the end is the song Verosika wrote after Blitz left her.

[@KeychiFIM]

I think people saw SO many hating Blitz over Stolas and kind of over corrected to try and make it seem like Stolas is just as bad as Blitz. Like yeah they were both toxic, but at least Stolas is trying to get better and doesn't mean to hurt people around him. He just needs people to actually talk and communicate their feelings to him so he can work on it. But Blitz has been SO much more shitty to people than Stolas has and only just now started to reflect on it.

[@OtakuCouple]

[@LilyBiby-dp9bi]

LITERALLY! THANK YOU FOR SPITTING FACTS! This fandom babies blitz so much it’s sickening, he started this he stole stolas’s book he ruined his life and doesn’t take his no’s but oh blitz is the victim here cuz cuz “PoWeR iMbAlAnCe” a power imbalance that stolas never used out side of sex talk that BLITZ said they indulge in💀

[@sandracarnegie2871]

@@LilyBiby-dp9bi I see people baby Stolas way more. No one wants him to take account to all the things he has done. He needs to apologize too

[@LilyBiby-dp9bi]

@@sandracarnegie2871 I don’t know what app you use to intricate with the fandom bro but i see WAY more people hating on him for little shit that can be fixed with four words/having a conversation with SOMEONE any one really. Most criticism of the show is on who it “babys” stolas (it doesn’t) and doesn’t make him take accountability witch if you watch the show with your eyes open you’d see isn’t true and even then his wrongs are nothing compared to blitz’s It’s been like this form the start of the show, how ever you’re right maybe the number increased because people are starting to waking up to how shity blitz is compared to stolas.

[@anthonymcneil4238]

Tbh I hate them both equally. Blitz has his own baggage to deal with, sure. But Blitz never asked nor wanted Stolas to catch feelings for him. Stolas didn't give Blitz a proper chance at actually understanding his feelings. And when Blitz freaked out, Stolas kicked him out instead of giving him the chance to think about it. Not only that, but a lot of people think Blitz is in the wrong when it's Stolas' own fault he got hurt. If Blitz doesn't want a relationship, Stolas shouldn't be trying to herd him into one.

[@downbeatdialga1341]

13:58 imagine the neighbors in this development wondering, “damn, they must really hate that ‘Blitzo’ guy” 💀😭 it’s like 2am on a school night for them, and they’ve got an indie rock ballad, blaring over the fence

[@OtakuCouple]

Not the it's 2 AM on a school night LOL 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😭

[@cateiya95]

I definitely think Stolas' shortfalling comes from ignorance. He doesnt recognize or comprehend his microaggressions. However, since they argued about it, he hasnt done it again and as long as he continues to grow, i think thays proof enough that hes a good person who is just ignorant to the world. Blitz, however, has a HOUSE FULL OF PEOPLE that he has unfairly hurt due to his own trauma. The problem is that trauma is not an excuse to continuously hurt people. Lots of people have horrible trauma, me included. And I've definitely hurt people as a result of that, but it's NOT OK. It is NEVER ok to push your issues onto other people. The fact that he keeps doing it over and over shows that he hasnt been willing to learn and grow. Which puts him more at fault in my books. 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

[@LilyBiby-dp9bi]

What really rubs me the wrong way is that for people to feel bad for blitz the fandom has to act as if stolas is as much of a dick as blitz. I legit saw people complain that he didn’t get “punished” for his wrong doings but what they don’t seam to consider is that stolas is a better and more open person then blitz, why are we focusing so much on blitz? Cuz if stolas got his bad actions called out to him unlike blitz he wouldn’t double down, because he’s actually a GOOD person. It annoys me so bad wen blitz literally mentally abusing his lovers is seen as the same level of bad as stolas using the love language that BLITZ thought him btw, people keep crying “power imbalance” but wen you ask them one instance where he used his power on blitz the thing you get is “he called him an impish little play thing” yah… the name callings that blitz never curated and encouraged as “dirty talk” and even then all blitz has to do is genuinely say “hay I don’t like that” and probably solved, UNLIKE blitz witch we is in this episode that no matter how many times stolas tells him “no” he would push and push until he gets his way. Don’t even get me started on people blaming stolas for the deal bro. Blitz broke into his home, used sex as a way to manipulate stolas into lowering his guars to get the book, but somehow stolad allowing blitz a way to continue his business (knowing that’s he’d get int trouble for it cuz it’s illegal, and well see the fall out in the court ep) people see him as an evil person that had this master mind of a plan from the start. Blitz should be thanking satan day and night stolas is a nice person unlike this deluded idea he has of him in his mind otherwise he would have daed right then and there. This has to be the only show that has the main character gaslight the audience SO hard they fall for it😭💀 Anyhow sorry about the rant it’s just so nice seeing people actually watching the show and seeing it for what it is, keep up the amazing work🤍

[@CryingClouds1]

This was a good episode pointing out the flaws in blitz actions yes even with the trauma and everything he’s been through not being an excuse to hurt so many people but it gives a better insight into his past and why he does the things he does and I’m glad that this got thrown in his face ass a real reason to change and to be better and I’m glad that he got the see the consequences of his actions and how they can effect people. Although a party dedicated to hating his is a bit much tbh and not necessarily it was in the fact of making him see his mistakes and want to change for the better to finally talk with stolas about his feelings and understand that he deserves to be loved like everyone else as well and he doesn’t have to keep closing up and start to love himself again it is sad that this happened but it happened for a reason. As for stolas he definitely deserves happiness and need a bit of a rebound but in all his sad boi ness he needs his own episode to address his acting as well because as much as he’s been through he needs to held accountable for his actions as much as blitz is so hope we get that so they can both grow and start to be better so they can start to talk it out and try and understand each other.

[@G.D.G.]

Also Stolas ignoring their power imbalance doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Stolas doesn't have to prostitute himself to keep his job - Blitz does. The way he even casually got the crystal, while Blitz's had to be a circus clown that steals so he and his family "can have better food"...

Ugh, that's better. Where is Blitzie. He's my knight in shining armor, not you littler ones", "...and [my grimoire] isn't supposed to be leant out to itty bitty imps like yourself", "Greetings, tiny Wrath Ring imps.

Are you little creatures not being careful up here. You know if YOU get in trouble, I get in trouble. WE don't want that", "Leave [Blitz] to me, I will handle him accordingly. Follow me, Imp". +Multiple instances of baby talk and pinching Blitz's cheek and objectifying him. And putting out a cigarette on his horn. And asking him to abandon his parental responsibility to Loona, and rescue him instead - even though Stolas himself didn't realize he was in real danger. And expecting sexual payment in return for rescuing Blitz from the DHORKS. ++Also pay attention to how Stolas (and Stella) treats imp service staff. Not only has he not apologized, but he won't even admit he ever did anything wrong. He doesn't want to talk to Blitz unless he changes, but he won't change himself for Blitz. Double standard.

EXACTLY people,e try and act like stolas has never done anything wrong and it’s blitz fault since he has a while house full of people who hate him but don’t take into consideration how stolas could have affected blitz’s into thinking this way they just wanna pen blitz’s out to be the more bad person when it’s both of their faults

[@sybariticcupboardrat3763]

@@CryingClouds1 I have beef with the Blitz hater party too. The show really hammers home that Blitz shows his d-bag side loud and proud, but keeps his feelings/vulnerability locked down. So if he's always like that to everyone, how did so many people fall for him? I mean... is this bad writing or were all these people in denial? "I didn't think the leopard would eat MY face." Or "I can fix him".

Both Blitzø and Stolas had trauma as CHILDREN, and while Stolas may not have as much work to do, saying that it’s all on Blitz is just treating him like he’s responsible for everything his father and other adults did to him. Plus he’s actively been working on improving. He’s been seeing a therapist, at least once. He mentions it in Murder Family. Again YES BLITZ HAS WORK TO DO, but this is literally a show about Blitz, and he’s already doing the work. And again THIS IS HELL, everyone is shitty.

[@CryingClouds1]

Stolas acting like he’s never looked down upon blitz ever having the nerve to say that to his face when whether intentional or not he has many times in season 1 calling him his impish little plaything or his little imp as much shit as blitz gets stolas needs to get some shit for being so unaware of his actions as well and is just practically blind to the whole class system itself because just because he thinks they are equals he needs to understand that no everyone sees it that why he needs a real reality check to truly understand what blitz had to go through his whole life being told he’s nothing but a tiny imp

@13:30 its funny how many people misunderstand blitz hes not a victim and im not saying he is but he's not guilty either. he's not "a prick" he has built in walls that are to protect him from getting hurt again and they pop up any time he's about to be vulnerable. we see it first at ozzies, when he looks back at stolas and stops paying attention to millie and moxxie like he can't believe stolas is into him we even see it on full display in this episode, with the fight with stolas, he did say sorry but he was so riled up he under cut it with a joke. honestly stolas is way worse imo at least blitz never abused stolas we cannot say the same for him, he put cigarettes out on blitz's horns, and has been shown to be racist to other imps [besides blitz] like "pringle" his butler. id argue stolas is worse just because he's ignorant to how hell really works.

[@blankspace7639]

Having unhealthy defense mechanisms from previous trauma does not mean it is okay to treat other people poorly. It can certainly make unhealthy behavior more understandable, but that doesn't mean these actions aren't hurtful--and that the pain of those who are harmed by these defense mechanisms experience is invalid. To arrive at this interpretation of Stolas, we need to ignore several instances in which Blitz took advantage of and manipulated Stolas--a pattern of behavior that started since their first meeting as children.

[@yuqyi]

Agreed. I feel like more people just don't understand blitzo and people that just look at the surface they want to blame blitz for everything

[@LilyBiby-dp9bi]

Yah stolas is ignorant so how can he fix that? Literally just have some one communicate that to him and BOOM! Probably fix cuz unlike blitz stolas despite all of his trauma and hurt and abuse is a good person that just needs people to talk to him because he’s been sheltered from the world. THIS episode legit shows that he relates and have fun with the low imps then other royals, if blitz just grow a pear and genuinely tell stolas what he feels he’s going to change just like that, in one episode (unlike blitz)

[@G.D.G.]

Agreed. Him "not knowing any better" or "he's sheltered" doesn't excuse his racism or magically makes the class difference disappear. Especially after abusing a specific race and then using one as a prostitute for a whole season.

@@blankspace7639 It's not an excuse - it's an explanation why he acts the way he does. I hope you don't use the "he doesn't know any better, he grew up privileged" for stolas when he's racist and dismissive of imps.

And on top of that Stolas makes a whole ass declaration of love out of nowhere. Blitz was always cold and unromantic with him - he did his job, by showing up once a month AS THEY AGREED. It's funny how you guys excuse Stolas backing out of their agreement when Blitz is VERY UNCOMFORATBLE with the change. He cries and begs to go back to what they both agreed on, but boohoo romantic owl boy wants to be chased in the rain poor baby. Blitz finally had a no emotions attached relationship, which makes him comfortable and doesn't trigger his trauma. But owl boy wanted to make him uncomfortable by ignoring all of his signs that he DOERSN'T WANT THIS to change. Stop excusing Stolas for demanding a relationship when the other party had no intention from the start for it to become a relationship.

[@MosquitoNumber13]

@@G.D.G. Yeah you know, if two people agree on having sex, and then one of those people no longer wants that, then it should stop, even if the other person wants to continue. Stolas no longer felt comfortable taking sex as payment. There's no universe where it makes sense for Stolas to keep accepting it just because Blitz wants this particular deal to keep going. And also, it's not like Stolas was inconsiderate- he gave Blitz an Asmodean crystal and 2 options- you can keep seeing me because you actually want to see me, or we can part ways. Saying he's "demanding" a relationship is absurd. He wasn't saying that either Blitz start dating him or he'd kill him! If Blitz has no emotional attachment to the relationship, then why insist on continuing the deal? The crystal is much preferable to the book. It's legal and won't get him in trouble.

Ehh i seen all sides the ones that think both are valid, those that think Stolas is valid and those that excuse Blitz personally im on the fence but someone who dealt with self hatred along time i think if words won't help Blitz be cool with Stolas again maybe action will.

[@alexia4251]

3 things, but first to be clear i still think Blitzo was an asshole to many people. my comments below are not trying to negate or ingore the faults or mistakes Blitzo made. however everyone seems to be on team Stolas. so his point doesnt need to be explained by me. 1. The Striker incident isnt fair. He was taking his daughter to the vet for her mandatory shot so she doesnt get sick because he cares for Loona. And he knows he is the only one She trusts enough to bring her. To add to that point Stella ordered intial hit, that Blitzo DID stop, and openly talked about it on the phone right across from Stolas. If stolas had bothered to listen to her he wouldve known about the first hit., and a potentional follow up. 2. Stolas claims he never looks down on Blitzo, but he refers to Blitzo as " imp" many times, which in Blitzos experiecne is an insult, of rank and class. Not to mention, Blitzo was BOUGHT for loose change, and a condom. by Stolas's father. to be his friend. As far as Blitzo is concerned he is just Stolas's pet, a thing to amuse him. and Stolas hasnt done that much to break that sterotype. Stolas hasnt one time asked Blitzo how HE feels in the relationship. Stolas assumed he felt trapped or caged, but BLitzo felt fine as he said " it is a tranactional fucking" Stolas added his own opinions, forced them on Blitz, bumrushed him with an ultimatum. and then refused to try and understand how Blitzo felt. 3. Notice how Blitz slides between the banisters mimicking being a prisoner, but Verosika kicks the bannister so she can be free and have her legs normal. he feels trapped even though he was given "freedom" from stolas.
