Stolas is horrified when he suddenly lays an egg. It's been a month since he and Blitzø last spoke, and things at home are still rocky at best.
So, he makes the decision to hide it. From Everyone.
The stars have never aligned for him though, and inevitably, it all goes wrong.
All he can do is hope things work themselves out.
Fizzarolli gave it more than a day. After all, with the amount of stuff Blitzø had left with, Fizz knew that he and Stolas would need a healthy sleeping in the next morning. Still, Fizz was too curious about how the night went to leave it too long. Blitzø had seemed oddly stressed for a man that was about to go have crazy kinky sex all night.
Of course, he hadn’t told Fizz anything about why. He didn’t take it personally. Blitzø had always been like that, even when he had been Blitzo, the young clown who Fizz had known all his life. He had never liked to talk about what was bothering him. Like it made something too real if he spoke it aloud. Of course, back when they were kids, Fizz always knew what it was Blitzø wasn’t talking about, because they were usually attached at the hip. Now though, Fizz could only guess.
Blitzø and Stolas accidentally both have the same therapist. The therapist (unethically) decides to help them work through their issues so they can get together.
‘Seriously, they oughta call it “Obviously, This Dude’s Life Fucking Sucks!” because who’re they kidding?!’
Blitzø chuckled at the memory of Loona’s first vocalized opinion on the movie that he’d so fondly shared with his mother. They had made fun of it, too, when he’d been just a little Impling, so it had been nothing short of a balm on Blitzø when Loona inadvertently revived the tradition with him.
But that wasn’t gonna get him anywhere with Octavia. And after getting some ideas from Stolas, Blitzø had gleefully gone and done… this…
“This is BULLSHIT,” Blitzø shouted, kicking the wall. Unfortunately, the wall was stronger than his hoof, and all he ended up doing was hurting himself. God damn it. Why was Moxxie and Millie's garage wall so hard? It was a great place to rehearse but damn, it was like reinforced with steel or some shit. “Also fuck this wall,” he added, hopping on his uninjured hoof.
“Come on, B. It ain't so bad,” Millie, his drummer chipped in. “He's handsome and famous! What's wrong with that?”
The band IMP gets a once in a lifetime chance to record a song with Stolas Ars, a wildly famous, but lonely pop star. Blitzø is sure that working with a vapid popstar is going to be a waste of his time, and Stolas just wants to finish his contracted albums and get out of the spotlight. Neither of them expect to fall in love.
While out on a date with Stolas, a chance encounter leaves Blitz reeling with unpleasant memories of that one night of Verosika's party. But at least they can finally have a little heart-to-heart about it.
Stolas has to adjust to his new life while reeling over what had happened at the trial. It's not easy. Luckily for him, Blitz is always there to help him and does so with a smile.
Octavia feels like the trial should have gone differently if it means having her dad home with her. As she looks into the alternate reality situation, it's made very apparent that such a desire really does have unfortunate consequences she never expected. Who knew that her dad's shitty boyfriend surviving truly was the best outcome?
Stolas ends up gravid after having a moment of weakness and sleeping with Blitzo.
Irritatingly, so.
And Blitzo is refusing to admit that he had any part in it, that it was most likely a freak accident, and that they’ll figure it out! They’re two adults! They can work things out with one another and raise this kid together, who gives a fuck how the kid came about?
But Stolas knows that Blitzo did something to that condom. And Blitzo refuses to admit it.
So, who else was he supposed to turn to except for Fizzarolli’s brand new show, The Fizzarolli Show? Especially when Fizz is offering to give both of them lie detector tests, blasting both of them on television, and giving Stolas the truth, comfort, and closure.
All they have to do is put on a damn good show.
Stolas' healing begins the day after the trial, though it doesn't exactly feel like healing.
He wakes up in Blitz's apartment, surrounded by Blitz's warmth and caring, none of which Stolas thinks he deserves. The last thing he wants is to be a burden, especially to Blitz.
As that first month progresses and the full moon approaches, Blitz and Stolas try to navigate this liminal space between knowing that they are in love with each other and being able to fully accept and act on that love.
So much has happened. So much is still uncertain.
At least neither of them have to navigate this new life alone.
