I Hope To Lord Almighty And Divine Power On Earth That Vizzie Does Not Touch Mythology. Especially Greek

I have another thing to conference

Everything I have learned about the Hazbin Hotel characters either comes from the wiki or the fandom.

Seriously, I don't like how you have to do homework to understand the characters' background. And I don't get the, "you have to watch the livestreams to understand!"

Look, I should watch the livestreams for fun, not because I have too. Plus, some these livestreams go on 2 hours or more.

Some people, including me, don't have time to watch 2 hours of information that is not gonna be in the show.

I think livestreams are great to explore people questions, but a lot of these livestreams are old and likely not to be canon anymore. So that is why I'm a bit hesitant to watch the livestreams as well.

So, to be honest, do we even know stella species supposed to be? I mean, her brother is a peacock, but stella looks nothing like a female peacock.

> I took the 3 biggest guesses on what she supposed to be swan, peacock (peahens), and secretary bird to see what matches her more

> stella beak matches the swan beak

> her long eye lashes matches sercerty bird long eye lashes

> stella dress I put a question mark on because it quite a hot mess of feathers that could be all 3

> stella arm sleeve remind me of the servertary bird legs

> her hair reminds me of when peahen show off their back feathers like the male peacock. But halfway though, I decided that sounded insane, so I also put a question mark on her, saying it could be all 3.

I decided to include pilot stella and see how much she looked like a peahen.

> I realized the crown thing both pilot and canon stella wear could be based on crown looking thing on top of the peahen head

> her face marking where it goes down her face really looks peahen face markings

> again, with my theory, her hair is based on peahen showing off their back feathers like the male peacock

> pilot stella eyeshadow matches the blue on peahen neck

> the gray on her dress also match the gray on peahen body

> the white on stella matches peahen white as well

My theory:

I do believe pilot stella species is peahen, but when they started to redesign her for the show, the team decided to make her a hybrid of some kind.

However, while typing this, I realized if stella is a hybrid, that means her brother andrealphus is a hybrid as well.

Unless, of course, andrealphus is her half-brother or stepbrother. But the show does implied they are blood related.

So, I'm also leaning towards stella is actually a peahen. The team just had difficulty designing her to look like one, so they just picked the best one.

So viv, if you knew that line was gonna trouble, why didn't you or your team add something to show that Satan was lying

I mean, one way you could have fixed it is by having Oz or Bee saying something about it instead of them looking awkwardly towards Lucifer chair and then to each other

This is how I would probably rewrite the scene to have Oz and Bee saying something about Satan lying

Satan says, "I am the mastermind, and here I am the law. I've ruled the endless dark since long before the golden angel's fall."

Oz quickly whispers to Bee. "Here he goes with his lying bs."

"I know! And it is not like anyone believes this. Everyone knows that Lucifer was here before any of us!" Whisper Bee

Then, before Oz could respond, Mammon loudly shush him

Is this a rewrite of this scene the greatest ever? Absolutely not

I tried my best, and I guarantee someone has a better idea of how to rewrite this scene. But this is how I would fix the scene.

If you guys have any ideas on how to rewrite this scene, please do tell!

conference post

I just realized that those big scary moments we see in both hh and hb characters final demon forms are not scary like at all (at least to me)

Like the 7 deadly sins revealed their demons forms, I was just like, "Cool."

The designs are just well underwhelming. I don't know if I am supposed to be like, "Cool!" Or "Holy shit!"

I think for me it is the art style that plays a part in this because viv style is more cute focus.

Her characters over the years don't really have a scary feel to them.

So maybe she doesn't have much experience making more horror related stuff to her designs.

So, rather, having more scary/intimating final demon designs, their designs just end up just looking cute.

Now the only one that I think got a true scary form is stolas.

Even then, I just feel like sometimes the designs are never gonna have a true moment of, "Oh my god, everyone is screwed!" When the said starts to show their true demon form

I understand you, the designs are underwhelming.

Especially when you realize the designs belong to the 7 deadly sins!

I feel like sometimes the designs are a hit and miss. Hopefully, the final designs get better, but who knows!

Merlin starts useless arguments just to rile Arthur up

He’s totally on the “sharks are smooth” kinda vibe and Arthur is pulling out his hair screaming “no they’re not!!” and merlin just replies yes they are :D

**********

“Wyverns are smooth”

“I’m an experienced hunter and killer, and I’m telling you Merlin, that they are scaly and rough.”

“Nope, they’re smooth”

“Shut up Merlin”

“I can’t hear you over the sounds of me petting this smooth wyvern”

“As If you have you ever petted one, Ha!”

“Oh I’ve petted many wyverns in my life, in fact sire, I keep one under my bed and pet it every night”

“Gods but you’re impossible! As if a wyvern would fit under your bed, idiot! They grow to be twice the size of Percival!”

“Well of course it’s not a grown wyvern, he’s small and very smooth”

“They are not smooth!!”

“Yes they are :D”

******

They argue like this in front of everyone else

I'm rewatching BBC Merlin for the hundredth time and just need to talk about The Witchfinder episode from season 2 and how this impacted Merlin's decision to keep his magic a secret.

By now, Merlin has been in Camelot long enough to see how Gaius is a trusted advisor to Uther. They've been friends for decades. Uther trusts Gaius as much as he is capable of trusting anyone.

And yet. And yet Uther STILL orders the execution of his most trusted advisor on the word of the Witchfinder.

To Uther, the years of service and trust mean nothing in the face of sorcery. Uther tried to apologize (ish) later, and rightfully so, Gaius refused to just brush the near execution aside.

Now think about Merlin. He has come to care about Arthur as a person at this point, not just part of his destiny, but they aren't as close as we know they will be later.

Merlin has been traumatized by seeing his father figure almost die because the king was blinded by his hatred of sorcery. Merlin knows it was almost his own execution here.

It's no wonder he didn't want to tell Arthur at this point. If Uther was ready to kill Gaius, we know canonically he was fine with Merlin dying.

Once Arthur became king, I believe Merlin still remembered this. We know what Merlin said: he didn't want to put Arthur in this position, to have to make the choice of life or death. But I believe there was still this deep seated fear that his years of service and council would never be enough to out weigh the death sentence of being a sorcerer in Camelot.

You know what weird is it angel birthday sure? But it also molly birthday..his twin sister

Wait you so right!

I completely forgot about it being Molly's birthday, too! Honestly, now that I think about it, Viv and the fandom never really talk about her.

I get she not known character, but you think the creator would celebrate both characters on their birthday.

(Unless, of course, Viv decided to change Angel and Molly from being twins to being just siblings)

I just realized stolas can remember blitz name and who was to him even though it probably been 20-30 years since they last saw each other.

But he can't remember a simple promise he made to his daughter, probably 10 years back?

I just got the chance to see the valentine merch and I have to say I'm not really impressed.

If I have time this week, I might make some posts discussing what I did and didn't like about the merch.

You know what weird? There are a lot of characters from HB and HH who have daddy/parental issues.

Hh:

Charlie, Angel, Alastor, and Abel

Hb:

Moxxie, Blitz, Octavia, and Stolas

Honestly, I feel like in season 2 or at some point of Hazbin Hotel, it gonna be revealed that both Alastor and Angel have daddy issues or parental issues.

And it doesn't help the leaks reveal that Abel has daddy issues as well.

(There are probably more characters that have parental/daddy issues that I probably forgot to include.)

But as a whole, the amount of daddy issues or parental issues as a whole is just really repetitive.

And it is not like the show writers are doing anything different. They always villianize the mom and make the dad a sympathy uwu twink or it the opposite where the mom was a total angel while the dad was just horrible.

It always the same, like the only parents that we have seen that have been good to their kids and to each other has been Millies parents.
