‘All you gotta do is say my name’
Finally finished my Beetlejuice Musical cross over and I love it. I adore the musical and I hope I get the chance to properly watch it live some day. With the wonderful Alex Brightman voicing our favourite Imp jester, I just had to do this. Hope you guys like it 😁
Summary:
She pushes an old shirt to the side and softly hoots in surprise at what she has found.
An old film camera.
Via blinks in astonishment and carefully lifts it out of the box. The heavy weight is expected but it still manages to surprise her somehow. This is a really old model, vintage even! Via has never seen one like this in person, only ever in magazines or in old movies.
For a moment her heart drops because at a closer glance the camera looks broken. It's dirty and banged up and there are some weird markings all over the body. In some places the plastic looks almost like it has… melted?
She turns it in her hands and runs a finger over the lid of the film compartment. What looked like ordinary scratches are actually letters, deliberately carved into the surface, faded and barely legible.
T. B.
*********** Via finds an old film camera in Blitzø’s closet. While she takes pictures of her new family and tries to come to terms with her new normal, the camera holds secrets none of them could have ever imagined.
Read on Ao3
I wonder if there'll be an upcoming episode where Via gets put in danger and Blitz has to save her alone.
Like, its clear to everyone that Stella and Andrealphus don't care about her, in fact they seem to see her existence as an obstacle to what they want to achieve.
I wouldn't be surprised if they eventually stage another kidnapping or assassination for her, should she start posing herself as a threat to them. She's already started showing signs of standing up to them, and her powers coming in quite strong(truly Stolas' daughter fr), so it'd make sense if they decided to get rid of her. It was also somewhat foreshadowed in Western Energy- maybe Striker is the one ordered to kill her?
Only Stolas would be powerless at this point, so it'd be nice if Blitz was the one to save her. Maybe he'd be involved by complete coincidence like with Fizz? Im reaching bc im delusional, but maybe they'll bond during it, Blitz being protective over Via possibly or maybe actually getting hurt. Imagine Via sees someone going nuts trying to protect her, bc I dont think she sees that, sees how much she matters to anyone, much less the imp who ruined her family. It'd be such a good wake up call for her to realize not only why Stolas ended up caring for Blitz, but also how important and loved she actually is.
Also Blitz has a small but GREAT record of reconciling with someone via salvation from life threatening disasters, its his method of bonding, therapy if you will
I just want Octavia and Blitz to bond ok- i want these punk ass idiots to see how much they have in common, plsplspls Vivzie-
Sure thing but y'all know that characters are supposed to be flawed in general AND they're in literal Hell where everything is more violent and sexual as on earth?
I love Stolas as a character BECAUSE he is an insufferable and selfish dick who thinks he can never be in the wrong. It's a really common personality trait and I like seeing it in Media. Today's "Assholes" can't be "assholes" anymore, because they all need to be "misunderstood" and I like that despite the tragic backstory you can still clearly tell he's in the wrong more often than not and that his backstory isn't an excuse but a reason - which everyone has.
Blitz is my favorite character BECAUSE he is absolutely incapable of overcoming his bad traits but he tries sometimes and when he does he fails and fails and fails and becomes more annoying to other people. He's hurting everyone - sometimes even accidentally and he doesn't realize it. He wants to overcome his trauma in all the wrong ways which heavily backfires and is stopping him from forming proper relationships. The two people who really owe him something (outside of adoption) just tolerate his bad behavior and are now - after the last episode - finally getting some growth of blitz in return.
I don't really care for Loona but for a traumatized, abandoned, literal DOG who just got adopted last second and having her entire life living in misery AND with a father figure with a character like Blitz it is understanding for me why she portraits her "love" to him in such a Stonewall-Way and treats him rather awful. She lived in the streets and her new family are mentally ill assassins, where was she supposed to get a healthy way to cope and communicate with people from? She still cares for him tho - both literally and figuratively.
And the phrase "no one wants to see characters doing their job" is literally just an opinion. Not a fact. Just because they think it's boring doesn't mean it really is. Different tastes exist for a reason.
Warp That Aesop Sums Up So Much Of Our Frustrations About The Series
I just love Helluva Boss' Warp that aesop page because it sums up everything wrong with this series, especially on Stolas' end. Seriously, this hits the nail on the head about the messages of the show and how much they dick suck Stolas and his shittiness.
Stolas attempts modern slang by zerna on twitter
"Honestly, Octavia didn't deserve to be hated. She's been emotionally neglected by her father, and she had every right to be mad at her. I can't believe Brandon (Blitzø's voice actor) called Octavia a "fucking" cockblock. Why would you say that to an emotionally neglected teenager whose father abandoned her for an imp? It feels absolutely wrong. I wish Octavia was in a better position than this."

Is it acceptable to post one helluva boss fanart each day, three days in a row?
They've made some mistakes, but they definitely love and adore their little girls 💕
Stolas with Octavia + Lucifer with Charlie
Cute helluva boss short idea:
Stolas teaching Octavia some spells and magic, like portals or shapeshifting! Even a human disguise! They could even be on earth for it!
Edit: Sinsmas has made this angsty and now I'm sad
This episode hit a little too close to home
This kinda' gave me an idea and here me out for a second.
Either Octavia runs away from home or she get's put up for adoption because she was a girl and the heir had to be a boy so Stolas had to ditch her when a male heir was born, the idea is that Via is 14/15 at the start and she is up for adoption at the time that blitzø goes to the Hellhound adoption center to get a Hellhound, she is left there because It's an easier place to hide an unwanted goetia, and besides she will get put down at 18 so it's convinient.
(I'm gonna go with the former cus' It makes more sense)
When Blitzø goes there Loona isn't there (IDK how to write her out) and he sees Via, he noticed how small and cornered she looks in comparation to the other hellhounds, she looked frightened, he asks the lady in charge about her and she says "oh Octavia, yeah some royals came in and drop of barely a year ago, said that they don't need her anymore or somethin' and just told us to treat her like any other Hellhound, but between you and me, she won't make it another month, the others pick on her cus' she can't defend herself so she can barely get some food, if you ask me, She isn't gonna' amount to anything useful". And immediately after that he adopts her.
Blitz and Via don't have the best start, mainly because Via is terrified about what's gonna happend to her, but after some time they genuinely bond, Via loves blitz old clothes and cd's and blitz makes space so that Via can get some plants in the apartment and with time they consider eachother doughter and father, as if they were always that. Sure, Via does miss Stolas and Stella and even her old house, but she starts to realize that she prefers the crampt up apartment to the cold palace walls everyday, she favors the dad that drops his job the second she might be in danger and teaches her to defend herself, instead of the parents who are always busy with the royal life and can't spare a second for her doughter. And Blitz loves her to bits, she's his little girl that has taught him how to grow emotionaly because she needs him, the owlette whom he tresures more than he hates himself, who convinces him to stop bluring himself in pictures cus' she is worried about him and the little girl who brings the best of him so he can protect her.
So about the book, blitz gets the idea not because of his past with stolas, but because he sees Via doing magic and he wants her to have the means to learn it properly, when he asks her about the magic he tells him about The Grimoair and where Stolas keeps it and right there and then blitz has the idea of stelling it. They map out the castle based on Via's memories of the place and the make an actual sucesfull heist.
While Via is practicing with the book she discovers a spell to keep them hidden from the goetia family, basically making the spells untrackable and it's Via who proposes going to the human realm to gain notoriety. At first blitz is against Via getting involve on the job (she's no older than 16) but he gets persuaded when Millie and Moxie suggest that she becomes a secretary and just help that travel, instead of participating in the killing, so he reluctantly agrees, besides Via gets to practice magic so win win, and that's how they start.
I know it's a bit of a rant, but I really enjoy the idea, especially because it help both characters getting proper motive to better themselves and some actual character develoment, like:
blitz wanting to go home at time cus' Via is still young, and thus' working on his coping methods so he gets to be with her.
Via working on her abandoning fear, because even tho' the Goetias left her to die, she has a wonderful dad that checks on her every chanse he gets and who has everything on the calendar so he dosn't forget anything important and Moxie & Millie that make sure she learns about diferent things, moxie with the hole "fancy" stuff and millie teaches her about about how to deal with creeps and is more of a mother figure to her.
Blitz talking about his problems to his doughter so she doesn't feel like it's her fault about blitz comitment issues and Via getting constant reasurance that nothing that her dad does should afect their relationship, unless she wants that change.
Blitz who learns to apologise, not because he's doing it out of pettiness, but because her daughter wants everyone to see what an amazing father he became and how much better he is, and most of all, to help her dad realize that it's not always his fault.
Again, sorry for the rant but I love this idea.
Loona and Octavia have had one very brief, extremely short conversation where Loona just said “get over it. At least your dad hasn’t disowned you” and via just said “okay” yet thousands of people call them “sisters??”
I actually think Loona abuses and beats Blitzø up as badly as Stella does to Stolas, including throwing objects and backhanding. But it’s funny when it happens to Blitzø??? He even does the same placating behaviour holding his hands up, that stolas did in looloo land.
If Octavia moved in with these people it would just be more domestic violence terrifying her. She looked scared when Loona kicked him after they reunited. Stolas looked worried at his injury but said nothing. As if Blitzø just deserved it?? Then stolas the shitty dad, gets a hug!? It wasn’t Blitzøs fault he didn’t see Octavia break in, or that he simply asked Loona to try at her job and not take it for granted. Then to top it off he was scared to call stolas because stolas might hurt him next. Holy shit he was mistreated terribly. With fans saying ‘that’s what you get for Ozzies’
That moment at the end though was so weird and toxic, I think it’s everything wrong with the show. Blitz and Via wrongly blamed for everything. Is women abusing men funny or not to you, show? Because just like Stella, Loona had no choice but to accept Blitzø as her dad and she has trauma. But you guys said trauma isn’t an excuse? Apologism even? With Twitter user dreamer even saying that “not believing women can physically abuse men like stolas is misogyny actually” and “Stella is the most violent person to exist” (Viv approved btw, wow) but Loona isn’t???
Octavia deserves better than Stolas, better than Loona, better than this show. So does Blitz. We all deserve better.
Thanks, I didn't need my heart anyway
In Queen Bee we learned about Blitz's Biggest Fear...
And in Sinsmas we learned about Blitz's Dream...
It may have taken some time, but Blitz's biggest fear didn't come true in Mastermind. Even if Blitz died that day, on that chopping block, he would have died smiling knowing that he told his found family he loved them, and that his found family (and at least Millie) were there to see his final moments.
Y'all know what this means chat?
Blitz is going to fight tooth and nail to make this dream come true. The dream that he and Stolas could be healthy and happy enough to settle down with their girls and be an actual family.
Now we are going to the really important shit guys. I noticed that there is no destinged tag for Loona and Octavia's romantic relationship, so I made one. from now on all my Loona x Octavia posts gonna be tagged «star and the moon» the name where inspired by the name of k4tastr0phe's helluwa Boss au "stars of the moon" (unfortunately now all videos about it are deleted)
To clarify myself — my interpretation of this payring is very similar to k4tastr0phe's — Stoliz are not together, so my pookies are just living their lives :3 and are very gay and love each other
that's it for now, but i'm gonna go more in depth about whole au, and maybe even do something on stars of the moon who the hell knows 👀👀👀
i want to start posting my art on there and i am super nervous... so there it is a wip for some art!! i love yaall!!
i need to say i don't really liked this redesign that much, but it helped me to know what i want from her design in general, and i'm gonna keep some elements from it in final result.
like and even if you are a proshipper at heart and LOVE all the semy — incest power imbalances promised in the pairing by antis... ur not geting that... its just not there. they are talking like two teenage friends who dont know each other that good jet, Loona geaws minimal number of fucks about the fact Oktavia is a fuckinng princess
