Stolas Criticism - Tumblr Posts
The 3 Episodes That Show Why Stolas' Current Redemption Arc is Doomed to Fail and Stolitz is a Failed Relationship:
INSTANCE 1.
EPISODE 2 OF SEASON 1:
[LOO LOO LAND]
While he does have his perv moments in Loo Loo Land (will insult that in another post), his most notorious one for me is how he addresses Blitz after being nearly 'attacked':
Here he flat out calls Blitz his 'knight in shining armor' (meaning he did only invite him to live out some weird fantasy of being saved by him) and refers to the 2 people who helped him as 'littler ones'. But he TOTALLY doesn't look down on imps guys, he said so in the newer HB episode.
INSTANCE 2.
EPISODE 5 OF SEASON 1:
[THE HARVEST MOON FESTIVAL]
Here he already acts like an ass from the getgo, but I'd like to point out something Blitz says at the start:
"When this happens it's not something I really fuss about"
This sentence implies that Stolas has pulled this last second call back on the book before despite knowing Blitz needs it just as much to keep his business alive. While here it's done because he has to do the festival ceremony, this means that there's a chance he's pulled this more than once solely to get a quick fuck or because he stupidly decided to forget he's a prince and needs that family heirloom to do his job.
And what was his response to this?
If this thing is so damn important then WHY do you use it as a token solely to make this guy sleep with you?
And lets not forget that Blitz ONLY agreed to go to this thing not to be around Stolas, but due to his employees being from there:
(and this was Stolas' response to Blitz telling him that he wouldn't be able to do his job regardless' granted he does say he doesn't give a crap about the clients the fact he even responded like this was lowkey kinda rude and condescending)
(it's said as 'I'm sowwy your cwients will have to wait~' but the auto subtitles didn't catch it right)
INSTANCE 3.
EPISODE 1 SEASON 2.
[THE CIRCUS]
For our last mini glimpse we'll be looking at the episode in which this gaslighting journey begins; skipping towards THAT scene:
Imagine seeing a childhood friend you haven't heard from since you were a child and automatically assuming that they came to fuck you instead of assuming they were coming to say hi.
Like I'm sorry, but it's VERY weird to me that they have him act like this with Blitz when the last time they saw each other they were kids.
(and even then blitz was only there because stolas' dad bought him for the dude as a birthday gift)
(plus this was how he reacted to being asked if he was there to ravage him. The seduction stuff was flat out wrong, but from the getgo he had NO intent to have sex with Stolas until he felt bad for him AFTER getting what he came there for in the first place.)
And thus we reach the end of the post; I certain I didn't cover as much as I wanted (because I refuse to sit through HB again because I'll just get mad at how hard the story nosedived) but these scenes here stuck with me the most.
Here he makes it clear that:
He only sees Blitz as someone who can get him off
He doesn't care about the business he's trying to run
He sees Blitz as his 'knight in shining armor' and deliberately put himself AND his daughter in danger solely to put himself in situations that force Blitz to save him
He sees any other imps besides Blitz as meaningless, given how he called Moxxie and Millie 'you littler ones' despite them helping him
But I'LL be the asshole if I remind any of the stans this despite it happening on screen for everyone to see-
Lol
Lmao even
I genuinely hate this character! I don't know if I have ever hated a character more!
What
FUCKING WHAT
(Love how they used that 'came on too strong' lyric for the scene where he was calling him 'cute' for telling him he better not try and do anything sexual to him and the 'read this all wrong' lyric for when he was asking if he'd be getting anything in return for saving them. Like bitch you didn't read jack wrong you were obviously asking for a sexual reward and got it.)
You looked down on him literally the entire first season and was seen reading an erotic novel about imps in the sheets.
You called him 'little creature', 'big dicked blitzy', 'my impish little plaything', 'blitzy', and had a literal scene where you put a cigarette out on his horn along with pinching his cheek like a child at one point and saying how 'cute' he was for setting boundaries at the carnival.
Bitch he was at the hospital with his daughter. Don't try and fault him for caring about his kin more than the guy who uses him like a toy.
You.
You just used your title Stolas.
You just used your title to shame Blitz for not saving you that one time.
And it ISN'T his place to have to constantly save your stupid ass because HE'S NOT FUCKING OBLIGATED TO RISK HIS OWN LIFE TO SAVE AN IMMORTAL FUCKING DEMON PRINCE.
