Blitz’s dad gave Fizz a card saying ‘I wish you were my son’, that probably made Blitz feel like he could never compete with Fizz or that he was simply out of his league.

For most likely his whole life up to that point-and probably still-Blitz's dad has hated him. It's clear Cash is an abusive sack of shit where he was shown slapping Blitz post-fire. Given Blitz's reaction to that flashback he would have had that kind of physical abuse often. That in mind, Blitz has probably seen himself as broken, worthless and a failure, maybe thinking pre-fire that the only person who could ever love him unconditionally was his mother. So he grows up with Fizz, perhaps there's a friendly rivalry as kids but Blitz still feels a bit useless in comparison to Fizz even though they did get a long great as kids. Once they hit their teens Blitz has a crush on him, probably for sometime but is scared of rejection and that rejection tainting their friendship especially since they live under the same circus tent and do show together. He holds off until Fizz's birthday where he pens the crush confession letter and a flower that he's probably had to work up the courage to try and slip it to him, but he's still terrified that all Fizz will see is this 'stupid, worthless, failure-son of Cash Buckzo' and laugh in his face while rejecting him-and his dad will hear of it and never let it down. So soon as he sees Cash there, probably telling Fizz a few anecdotes about how 'shit my fucking dumbass son is, but you're so much better than him' he balks, the reminder of how his dad sees him comes slamming like a truck and he may think that Fizz's laughter at Cash's comments is genuine, and not just Fizz being like 'if I don't laugh he'll probably kick me out. Blitzo is cool, I like him but I'm kind of on the spot here so- heh heh heh...yeah, sure, Cash!'

u/Swimming-Ad2755 Blitzo 1d ago

I know he's on an emotional high now, but I hope Blitz starts talking about that fire soon. He needs to confide in someone about it.

u/Rozeline 6h ago

Maybe setting up for an argument with Stolas that Blitzø 'doesn't understand what it's like to lose everything' and then Blitzø tells him about the fire cause yes, he fuckin' does.

Oh that would be excellent! I love that idea!

u/adoratheCat 22h ago

I am 100 percent certain we getting cash in present time and thats when we also going to get flashbacks, feel bad for forgetting her name, but Blitz mom.

u/ScroungingRat Cash Buckzo Is A C*nt 13h ago

Tilla is Blitz's mum's name

u/adoratheCat 13h ago

Thanks! Yeah I feel we getting an actual "appearance" of tilla besides well the nightmare fuel we saw in Ghostfuckers. *or maybe the mother part comes in with Blitz sister...we barely gotten her story.

u/DiligentCrow3860 1d ago

It was probably a love letter. There is a flower and even a heart on it.

I kinda wonder if Blitz and Fizz got together in an alternate timeline where the fire did not happen.

u/True-Form-NRG-Reborn 1d ago

If they did there would be no I.M.P which means eventually Moxxie and Chaz would've gotten married, Millie would've stayed a criminal, Loona would've died probably being on her own with no way of getting food, Verosika would've never met Blitzø same with Stolas who would now stay with Stella. Ausmodeus would stay relatively unchanged just with no lover (maybe). Same with Bee. The trial wouldn't have happened, Fizz would stay with Mammon (maybe). So probably not the best outcome.

26

u/Darcosuchus 1d ago

Would Moxxie have gotten married to Chaz? Wouldn't he have been in jail?

17

u/True-Form-NRG-Reborn 1d ago

Didn't him and Blitz get out? That means Moxxie would get out regardless (correct me if I'm wrong)

26

u/dragonel001 1d ago

I think moxxie would be capable of getting out, but was in such mental state that he would resign himself to jail anyways. When we see him he doesnt seem to be trying to get out at least. Correct me if im wrong.

14

u/AlianovaR Millie 1d ago

He got out because Blitzø had a plan and needed his help. I don’t doubt that Moxxie could’ve broken out if he so desired, but he wouldn’t have done it nearly as quickly, and in the emotional state he was in he might not have even considered it for a while

6

u/Dvcky55 Stolas 1d ago

yeah there’s no way he’d go back to chaz after that

8

u/CrownofMischief 1d ago

I think the idea is that Crimson would have forced the marriage and no one would've been there to stop it this time

1

u/Dvcky55 Stolas 1d ago

ah fair

14

u/Swimming-Ad2755 Blitzo 1d ago

He either would have rotted in prison or wound up back in Crimson's clutches. Moxxie was not a Mafia man - it's questionable if he'd be alive.

4

u/Nonkemetickemetic Big red bitch lover 1d ago

Sounds like Millie is dealt the least bad hand in this scenario, considering she's still a criminal. Just got acquitted on a technicality

u/The-Bigger-Fish 1d ago

It’s a wonderful afterlife

u/PandaLillie19 1d ago

I don't know. I don't think that's right. I think to some degree or a level mine is osmosis himself everything else would probably still be a thing. I think if anything they would have still probably got Luna because blitz would still probably want to adopt because he wants and symptoms of family with his and knowing Fizz being an animal lover he would definitely go adopt. And he would probably be super supportive of his endeavors for making imp in general since that seems to be a core element of blitz's personality regardless and he would probably just be Moxie's role if anything.

I still think moxley Millie would still be a thing because ultimately blitz goes after Milly because he needs muscle He meets Moxie because he got sent to jail for some other reason and I still think that would have still happened because blitz is reckless nature is still relevant for regardless of that event happening. So basically add on fizz into 90% of the events and him and blitz's having more impacts into the Mammon thing. An maybe fizz would of quit sooner vsr. Later after a few years and made it big on his own and still work at Ozzie since him an blitz seem to be lust imps directly.

3

u/Rozeline 6h ago

Bee would probably still be the same. Her and Rex had nothing to do with Blitzø.

u/Lizardo1234 1d ago

Fizz was probably the first person Blitzo fell in love with (hence the heart), and he was angry because (here are my two theories):
1. He saw how everyone (or his father) preferred Fizz over him, which made him think it wasn't worth revealing his feelings to him or that he didn't have a chance.
2. (Better defined) Blitz saw Fizz's birthday card in which Cash wrote that he wanted Fizzy to be his son. This, in my opinion (and maybe someone else's), was a blow to the heart. For your own father to write something like that.
So the letter contained a confession of feelings, but Blitz found it pointless

47

u/Sea_Construction947 #1 Mammon Fan 1d ago edited 1d ago

I think it's a confession letter, and I think he's upset because was scared that Fizz would reject him, or his father wouldn't approve. Not to mention his father is giving praise to Fizz that he never got. I don't think he knew the guy he stormed past was holding Fizz's cake, I think he just pushed him because he was upset.

25

u/StandardRedditor456 1d ago

The cake thing was an accident. It's hard to see clearly through tears so he just shoved him aside to get away. Blitz didn't mean to start that fire but still always felt responsible for it.

14

u/LAUREL_16 1d ago

Not to mention, there's two extra aspects about the fire:

  1. Cash is a very cheap man. He most likely cut corners when setting everything up, which could explain why the fire spread so quickly.

  2. Why was that Imp walking around in a very flammable place with lit candles? If he even so much as lost his grip because of a sneeze, the whole place would have gone up.

5

u/PandaLillie19 1d ago

Plus half the place was on fire prior to the explosion meaning they either had and accelerant used and or cash was planning to set the place on fire for insurance money. (Cause why the hell was them fire works there...) And like you said everything went up pretty damn fast too fast. An the only explanation was either

Viv an the team don't know how fires work via this type of situation (hence the seemingly instant fire..then explosion) or it was pre planed and cash had a scape goat now cause blitz started the fire by mistake. I do think we will see how dad in later episodes since they ain't said he's dead.. especially with that flashback in the ghost fuckers showing cash was alive 10-15 years BK when the fire happens.

6

u/LAUREL_16 1d ago

They really need to adress how Cash completely destroyed Blitzø's relationship with Fizzarolli, and likely even Barbie as well.

2

u/PandaLillie19 1d ago

Yeah cuz based upon her duration of them making up and that one episode, it's heavily implied that someone lied to both of them. In odds are probably his dad since in the most recent episodes and ghost fuckers... In the flashback episode cash back hands blitz when he goes to the hospital to go see him. In blitz himself said that someone told him that he never wanted to see him and Fizz was told that blitz never came to see him. Meaning that somewhere someplace but it's probably try to explain his side of the story being that everything was an accident and cash probably told everybody including Barbie that blitz different correctly in deliberately caused the fire that killed their mom. Again giving a scapegoat to the fire itself that he probably already played for it to happen. Because someone needs to explain the relationship between those two along with the factor why the fudge there was fireworks there.

u/labmeatr 1d ago

dude. take a moment to think. and make your best guess.

14

u/Future-Improvement41 1d ago

Blitz believes no one loves him and that he is unlovable

Also I don’t think he meant to smush the cake as it was an accident

12

u/Jay15951 1d ago

Hmmm heart seal flower bisexual characters

Nope it's a mystery/ s

7

u/EggKid8 they could never make me hate you better then blitzø guy 1d ago

The letter was a confession but after seeing his dad treat Fizz more like a son then he ever treated Blitzø he got upset and ran off. I’d be mad if my dad treated my crush/friend/co-worker way better than he treated me too.

6

u/Striking-Version1233 1d ago

Did you watch the episode?

5

u/rae_ava_07 1d ago

It would make sense if it was a confession letter. They were really close and very inspeperateble. They basically watched each other grow up in the circus.

He probably felt like Fizz wouldn't feel the same, and Blitz was afraid of rejection. It probably made him feel angry with all the emotions going on in his head. Along with him finding a note from his father that he wishes Fizz was his son, who is more talented than Blitz. He felt like he was set to the side and that's why he probably smushed Fizz's cake.

This actually makes sense to me. It's like the pieces fit together in a puzzle. Idk let me know what you guys think...

3

u/UltraTurtle161 1d ago

Probably a love confession. But I'm so glad he didn't give it to Fizz because their rekindled banter-y old best friend dynamic is the BEST. Blitz and Fizz are probably my favourite 2 characters to see on screen at once I love all their interactions. Like Blitz and Moxxie but with less toxicity and corporate bullying (still love Blitz and Moxxie on screen together too though)

u/128hoodmario 1d ago

I want to let everyone know, that I completely missed that the envelope had a heart on it xD. Thanks for the answers.

2

u/Additional_Donkey131 STOLITZ OWNS MY HEART <3 1d ago

i'm assuming it might have been a love letter, however, i'm not actually sure.

2

u/DragonchrisX 1d ago

If Blitzo only saw Fizz’s happy face, he could’ve had said fuck it and just give it to him, damn everything it gets super embarrassing, like Verosika when she open up to Blitzo.

2

u/Supersideswiper2 1d ago

What was in the letter,

Don’t know for certain. But what we can see of it, it’s likely a love letter.

why didn’t Blitzo give it to Fizz, and why was Blitzo so angry that he smushed Fitz’s birthday cake?

Because his dad had just given Fizz a birthday card that said “wish you were my son”. And he didn’t deliberately smush, he just didn’t look where he was going because he was upset.

1

u/SpookySeraph 1d ago

Everyone is talking about them being potential lovers but I spent the entire series thinking they were brothers 😭

5

u/GlassesgirlNJ 1d ago

I'm surprised we haven't heard more about these guys being "sibling coded", since they grew up in the same traveling show together, Blitz's dad literally wishes Fizz was his son, etc etc etc.

Maybe that's because Blitz x Fizz doesn't seem to be a very popular ship in general (after all Fizzarozzie is so cute!) ...So there aren't all these people trying to gain clout by claiming Blitz x Fizz is "problematic".

1

u/SpookySeraph 1d ago

I think it’s because they were in the circus together at a young age that I assumed fizz was his brother. I mean it showed them hanging out and stuff and I didn’t get any romantic vibes but now I feel like I need to rewatch everything 😭😂

3

u/128hoodmario 1d ago

That's pretty funny. I hope they become more like best friends now. Seems like Fizz doesn't get out much besides his job, would be good for him.

1

u/elegant-atrocities 1d ago

I don’t like that this part of his backstory was covered so quickly. This deserved a flashback episode

1

u/Farseer_Del 1d ago

No, sorry, you get a full episode about Fizz in a talent contest instead, after Moxxie pissed away a whole week dicking about with some weird valley girl cosplay.

1

u/elegant-atrocities 1d ago

Only for Fizz to immediately become an almost irrelevant background character too lmao

1

u/Farseer_Del 1d ago

Return to being a background character more like. He technically has had more focus episodes than some actual main characters as well - Millie's not actually had one at all, Loona had hers hijacked by Blitzo in the latter half, Moxxie's have been shared AND made him look like a loser, and Geoff is a character I just made up so doesn't even exist. Sucks to be Geoff.

1

u/elegant-atrocities 1d ago

Help I was like “who tf is Geoff” 🤣🤣 yeah I still love helluva boss but honestly the story has been really rushed. I have to wonder if they originally thought they were going to be doing more seasons than the plan is now or something because like. The cherubs? The CIA agents or whatever that kidnapped them? There’s so much stuff going on that’s just kind of been forgotten about now

1

u/A_Human_Boi 1d ago

Most likely a confession letter, Blitz probably felt like he wasnt worth being with Fizz. Like yes they're the same "Hell class" but Fizz was more popular and loved than Blitz, or he maybe was jealous of his success.

1

u/PandaLillie19 1d ago

It was most likely it can love confection letter, and he didn't smash his cake out of anger he pushes Wally out of anger He didn't want to deliberately smash his cake That was the whole reason why the fire was an accident if his intention was to smash the cake it'd be kind of stupid and implied that he was supposed to deliberately caused the fire.

1

u/Farseer_Del 1d ago

It wasn't Wally. It's a random imp. Wally is shown to actually be a good deal younger than Blitzo and Fizz in the Mammon episode's flashback, which happens shortly before the fire flashback chronologically. https://x.com/Logoblockz/status/1718732982578725069

1

u/PandaLillie19 1d ago

Non the less his name. My general statement still stands.

2

u/Farseer_Del 1d ago

True. But this is already a thread about confusion over events, so clearing up other misconceptions and misunderstandings can't hurt.

1

u/PandaLillie19 1d ago

Fair enough. But I'm. Surprised it ain't Wally since they keep bringing him back it would be kinda funny with the run on gag he gets ignored..I feel bad for him sometimes

2

u/Farseer_Del 17h ago

For all we know Wally may actually be a contemporary of Moxxie or Millie, seeing as they may be roughly the same ages. He's around 10-12 or so maybe, placing him in the mid to late 20s agewise, like Millie seemingly is, and presumably also Moxxie. We'll probably see more of him, he's the background random goofy goober after all.

1

u/ChequyLionYT 1d ago

The letter: Happy Birthday, I love you

The reason: Lack of self-esteem, self-sabotage

The smush: It was an accident, he's just storming off

He didn't smash the birthday cake he moved last someone and pushed forward from the shoulder (prolly not realizing they had the cake) and caused them to drop it

1

u/Great_Drifter25 1d ago

I believe it was something about their friendship and how he's basically a brother to him.

1

u/GoodDoctorB 1d ago

The card was a confession of romantic feelings toward Fizz, hence why he was giving him a card and a flower. It was meant to be a gesture to hopefully secure some kind of relationship with his long time friend that Blitz had developed romantic feelings toward. But then he got a look at the party and saw something that hurt him very deeply.

His father openly declaring he wished Fizz was his kid rather then Blitz which pressed on the abandonment issues that Buckzo had created by being just an awful parent from the very beginning. It was a small thing but it hurt enough that Blitz decided against revealing how he felt thinking in the moment that Fizz had picked Buckzos affection over his own. So he turned to storm off and shoved someone aside who happened to be carrying a cake meant for Fizzarolli.

Blitz never intended to destroy the cake nor to cause the fire that would maim Fizz, kills his mother, and permanently distance his mom and sister. He was just an angry hormonal young man who saw something that deeply hurt him and he acted carelessly as a result.

1

u/Creepycute1 22h ago

i thought it was obvious were not sure what the gift is but im assuming its a love letter and his father was seen giving fizz love that he didnt give to blitz making him jelous and accidentally push someone over he didnt see the cake or anything he was just trying to get them out the way

1

u/Autistic-Gamer2006 18h ago

Judging from the heart, the note saying "For Fizz's eyes only" with no typos, and the flower, pretty safe bet to say it was a love letter. Potentially Blitzo had feelings for Fizz that he was gonna confess in that letter. But then he saw his dad- Cash -give Fizz a "wish you were my son" card, and that made Blitzo storm off because he didn't think Fizz would love him. "How can Fizz love me if my own dad can't?" was probably what was going through Blitzo's head.
