The moment from the series "desperate Housewives" season 2 episode 8 was taken as a reference:

Kuczo From Emperor's New Groove Refutes the Bs Sheltered Excuse For Stolas

I know people use the sheltered excuse to cover for Stolas' crappy behavior but I see another character who I think refutes Stolas should be given leeway because he's sheltered is Kuczo from "Emperor's New Groove". The reason why I say this is because why he became such a selfish pos is that he was always sheltered and spoiled to think that way. However, one thing that the narrative doesn't do is shield him from being criticized for his selfishness and callousness. The main plot happens because of his shittiness and taking people for granted like his long time advisor (although that one did have justification because she was trying times to rule behind his back).

Throughout the story he's made to reflect on the fact that his actions affect others and that he can't keep acting the way he is or he will end up alone as a result. And even at one point in the story he even tells off his own narration to feel sorry for himself because at that point we saw that he brought everything on himself and is now paying for it. That is something Stolas would never do because he will frequently deny he's not anything but the complete victim and blame everything after everyone else when it's obvious he's to blame for his own misery.

That's the difference between Kuzco and Stolas as characters is accountability from the narrative. Kuzco's ignorance doesn't give him the excuse to be a pos and he has to learn be a better person or be stuck the way he is forever. Stolas on the other hand is babied and we are supposed to find his ignorance charming rather than obnoxious. And even when it's pointed out he doubles down and claims he's done nothing wrong which shows he is adverse to actually learning to better himself. And ironically Kuzco is just a year younger than Stolas' daughter who acts more mature than her dad. And youth doesn't stop him from being someone who needs his actions corrected.

And most of all entitlement both Kuczo (in the beginning) and Stolas are both entitled characters due to their ignorance. Kuczo for example is so entitled he thinks that there is nothing wrong with bulldozing a village to make a resort for himself while leaving many homeless and when turned into a llama he demands one of the villagers who he told what was going to happen to take him back. Meanwhile, Stolas thinks nothing of extorting someone for sex and then expects to have a relationship with that person since he called it off. However, one character manages to show how toxic this mentality is and how selfish they are for it. The other is treated as deserving of it and thus doesn't get admonish for not caring how others feel until he gets what he wants. And ironically even if Kuczo had moral lapses before truly changing, he comes off as more likable than Stolas.

It's interesting that an almost 25 year old Disney movie can get this character right but a supposedly adult animated show can't. It really shows what happens when let a creator pet blind the story and allow them to get away with more and more shit.

Frederik II Builds Kronborg Castle at Elsinore

Artist: Nicolai Abildgaard (Danish, 1743-1809)

Date: 1781

Medium: Oil on canvas

Collection: SMK, The National Gallery of Denmark, Copenhagen, Denmark

Description

King Frederik II transformed the older fortress "Krogen" into the magnificent Renaissance Kronborg Castle at Elsinore (Helsingør), Denmark, starting in 1574, aiming to build a powerful symbol of Danish might and a grand European palace, famed for its lavish parties, impressive Great Hall, and later as the setting for Shakespeare's Hamlet. He added bastions, towers, and ornate decorations, creating a strong fortress and a luxurious royal residence, though it was later damaged by fire and rebuilt, solidifying its status as a cultural landmark.

Thinking about Fae Tengen who was careful with the clothes he gave you to replace the torn dress you arrived in. Although his conjuring magic was limited he managed a summer dress, nothing extraordinary, just a yellow and white gingham dress that stopped mid thigh. It was sleeveless, showing off plenty of cleavage and leaving you almost on display for his wandering eye, but you didn't say much about it, just thankful he had hidden you from the prey of the Fae realm. Little did you know he himself was the most feared, lust was a sin and he was the embodiment of it.
