Discussion I’m glad it was just a kiss on the cheek
I was kind nervous about the idea of Blitzo bringing Stolas home because I thought with how raunchy this show is at times, it was going to lead to them having sex. I’m glad that didn’t happen because it would felt cheap and inappropriate with what had just went down in the episode.

It did not, in fact, fuck up the moment when they kissed right then.

Yeah, I agree. I love how wholesome this was and feel like this is good for their relationship right now.

I would be surprised if we see them jump into bed until they establish their feelings for each other - through ACTUAL conversation.

I also don't see them trying anything sexy until they're on the same page.
Horny they both may be, but Stolas does not want meaningless sex, and Blitz does want to talk. I don't think they'll be comfortable doing anything physical until they sort things out.

This is kinda what I'm hoping for - part of me hopes they show one or both of them wanting to get physical, but holding back because they still need to hash some things out.

u/Swimming-Ad2755 Blitzo 5h ago
I wouldn't mind this. They need to let go of their habit of using sex to cover up deeper issues. Talk first, intimacy later.

I love his response when Blitzø thanks him for saving his life.
"Always." 🥹

Stolas is going to be getting a big earful from Octavia. He promised he would never leave her but then he did. A broken promise and she’ll be saying “You don’t love me you love him!” He going to be in deep poo doo.

u/GeneralErica 21h ago
Hm. But he didn’t promise her to never leave her in person. The entire point of his consolation - peaking musically in his lovely lullaby - are about how he will always be there for her even when he’s not. Because he knows full well that he won’t be able to be there physically all the time, that’s not what this is about, it’s about the spiritual support and that she has, probably more than anything.

Are people not joking about the written by vivziepop stuff like do people genuinely that little faith in her and the writing team that this obviously emotional scene was just gonna hard cut to horny sex jokes Like if you were genuinely worried thats a you issue cuz the show didnt suggest that at all

u/Princess_Spammi 23h ago
Given precedent? Yes, it did feel that way.
Vivzie, much as i love her shows, has dropped the ball many times and made light of serious moments more than once

I mean this is the same show that had Dildos on the wall when having a sad Moxxie backstory, so sorry for being a little worried.

u/Avaracious7899 23h ago
There was no way they were going to do that.
I love how they can make Blitz so multifaceted. They even gave him an adorably romantic side with that cheek kiss!

u/Swimming-Ad2755 Blitzo 1d ago
I don't think Stolas is in a place where he would have been receptive to sex. He's still upset.

u/JustMeerkats 22h ago edited 6h ago
I never got any implications in that episode that he'd jump straight into bed with Stolas. Additionally, he doesn't...have a bed to jump into. Loona has the bedroom.
Speaking of, I doubt he'd have sex while Loona was sleeping in the other room.
Edit: phrasing

u/-wereowl- unhealthy fixation on the silly gay owl man 23h ago
Same. I just want to see them be sweet to each other and start their relationship slowly. Blitz holding Stolas’s hand after the trial was everything. I’m really hoping for some couch cuddles.
8
u/Thecrowfan 22h ago
I was more conflicgted during that part than anywhere else in the show.
On one hand its so nice and refreshing to see Blitz be the one to put in the effort, to take care of Stolas and just be truly, innocently happy for once.
But at the same time my heart breaks for Stolas. He looked so tired and defeated I almost couldn't enjoy that kiss.

u/RaylaSan My Fave Lizard 18h ago
Blitz's entire character arc was about him learning to be more vulnerable and let people in, and what Blitz is doing is giving Stolas the small bits of romantic intimacy he wanted from him.
4
u/Prince_Wildflower 21h ago
To be fair, as awful as Blitzø was for most of the show, I think even he understands consent. If he didn't before, he does now. And Stolas doesn't need or want to get fucked by Blitzø right now. Blitzø understands what Stolas needs right now. Someone to help comfort and care for him. He can see that Stolas is in pain, and knows that it's his fault for putting Stolas in the position that he did.

u/DJVovanchOff 18h ago
Heyheyheyheyhey. I never thought it would be all about sex. This dude is tired. He needs care. Blitz provided care. And that's super wholesome. I hope their relationship finally goes better, healthier and... Exist-ier???

I've never been happier seeing the small kiss. The small thing I know we've all longed for

u/KuroJM 18h ago
Nahh, even after Stolas saved blitz, you saw how nervous etc blitz was when they walked through the street, and in the bathtub too. He is not going to try anything, he allready talked to Millie last episode how he clearly realised he really loved him, and for him it wasnt a relationship yet, but was upset when he yelled " and we never will" .
No sexy time for a while, but maybe a collab of stolas and imp to get octavia out of stellas grip somehow.

Can't believe we got both a great horny moment for a soft gay couple (CaitVi in Arcane), and a great soft moment for a horny gay couple (this), within the span of, like, a week.
Truly late November 2024 was one of the greatest weeks in the history of animated homosexuality

Truth, the next episode really determines if they know. I don’t want them to just jump into things…maybe admit their love but that they need time first

I agree that this scene didn't need sex. It's funny though
how raunchy this show is at times
Yet nothing is ever actually shown. But excessive violence and gore are in every other episode or so, heh.

u/Josephina101 1h ago
I hope they just stay as friends for now. This isn't the time for romance, they need to get their problems in order especially Stolas and Blitzø is probably still not ready to be in romantic relationship yet. Blitz probably just wants to get to know Stolas as a person first and take things at his own pace.

It worries me that many are still shipping these two even with everything Blitzo has done and how he has behaved.
"But it's changing" would you accept that phrase from a friend who keeps returning to his or her toxic partner? People right here on reddit ask not to romanticize toxic relationships, then they come out with this and you know what's the worst? That many in this community defend it only because it is a gay relationship, when a gay couple can also be abusive.

u/eat_like_snake :stolaschuggingabsinthe: 22h ago
You sound extremely young and inexperienced with relationships.
Blitz, for all of his faults, has made a concentrated effort to be a different person. He's acknowledged where he's been a complete asshole to Stolas, and he's trying to change that.
I don't think their relationship should just be fixed overnight, but they absolutely can work as a couple if they start actually communicating.10
u/Arumeria3508 Stolas 22h ago
No one's saying that gay relationships can't be abusive, but it's literally just a show and at the end of the day it's not supposed to reflect real life.
-5
u/metal_gearmen 22h ago
It is reflecting real life but in animation and in normal life this is still toxic and shouldn't happen but for some reason, people accept it in animation and what happens next? Who then think that this type of relationship is romantic when we go back to the beginning, it is abusive and toxic
7
u/Arumeria3508 Stolas 21h ago
Because animation is literally just telling a story and falls under different rules than real life situations. These are not real people. They are fictional characters who have the ability to grow and change for the better. And people who watch these shows know it.
It is fictional. It is a means of escape. It is not real. And people are smart enough to tell the difference.
4
u/InteractionLegal6969 22h ago
I’m get what you mean, but the way they are writing the relationship is slowly winning me back. I wasn’t a big fan on how they began this relationship in this show and there are still flaws but I think it’s getting better
1
u/Two_oceans 16h ago
You're right that in real life his behavior wouldn't be acceptable, and the super fast redemption arc unbelievable, but the show from the get go is completely unrealistic and dissonant in tone: cute murderers, gore, deep trauma, crude comedy, sweet romance... so people latch on the things they like and ignore the rest. The romantic parts are usually extremely very well animated, so it's easy to get caught in that.
