With all the anti stolas shit that’s been popping up on my dash recently(fuck you, algorithm, I love my gay owl boi)I’ve been noticing a pattern. Anti stolas criticizes stolas and calls it that, refusing to acknowledge his good parts. Meanwhile, pro stolas responds with overwhelming positivity, which, like, yeah I love him, but there’s no acknowledgement of his flaws and mistakes. That’s what I’m here for! No one invited me and I broke through the wall(sorry blitz)but I’m here!
Stolas is SUCH. A. FUCKING. DICK! In the beginning at least. He refuses to respect blitz’s boundaries and disrespects imps in general(before you say “it’s only blitz! Bc it’s a form of flirting!” First of all no it’s not flirting or some bs, and if that’s how he means it, he needs to work on that. Second of all, he calls Millie and moxxie “littler ones” and refuses to respect the family Blitz worked to find, despite the fact Blitz treats them like shit a lot of the time, especially moxx, but thats beside the point).
another thing to consider, though, is that it’s not one person fucking up. The blame can’t be shifted onto the shoulders of Stolas OR blitz. Blitz treats him as if he doesn’t care, doesn’t acknowledge his professed feelings as anything else but a joke, essentially disrespecting Stolas’s emotions like Stella likely did and does. He’s ingrained to think of stolas as never caring for him, but that doesn’t mean stolas deserved it. He hurts and hurts because he gives a shit. Blitz needs to work on emotions shit, because the way he expresses them is hurtful to others and he doesn’t communicate or express care in a way that makes it clear to the other he does.
So yeah. They both need to work on shit before they’re healthy.
But I digress, it got a bit off topic, my original point was that yeah. Stolas is a fucking dick. But that doesn’t mean he’ll be a fucking dick for the whole of his life.
So can the divide close a little bit? I get it if stolas is irredeemable for you. I’m not saying you have to love him, or even like him. But let’s acknowledge the positives and flaws of a character. I didn’t get into positives, because those aren’t hard to find if you look a little. But negatives never get fully into why they exist, or how they can be worked on. So yeah. Hope you liked my fucking ramble.
