Probably my least favorite generalization of a character was Bee during her debut. Something that really bothered me was everyone redesigning her, just to look like a bee, but that’s the least of my concerns. Does everyone still hate on Bee for her party and how she treated Loona? Cause if you ask me, Loona was the one with issues.

1. Everyone was like “UH Beelzebub gets everyone drunk and high at her parties so they all sleep together and make puppies and so those puppies end up in the adoption center which is where loona comes from and that’s why she’s so uncomfortable!!!” and it didn’t really make sense to me. If that’s what happens at those parties and it was confirmed, shame on me, but it personally it doesn’t make sense for Beelzebub to be hosting hell hound baby making parties to fill the orphanages so there’s more Hell hounds to work for people. Not every Hellhound works as a security guard, just like not every imp is a servant.

Loona is uncomfortable because she’s not used to hanging out in that environment, she literally almost ditches the idea of even staying there. She surrounded by people she doesn’t know/have bullied her in the past. She does end up finding her place with some people, and even hangs out with them and later episodes. If hell have babies were really the problem with that party, she would not have stayed because that’s a completely different issue than being socially awkward.

2. Everyone said she was so terrible to Loona when she was telling her about blitz, but she is 1000% a girls girl. Bee wouldn’t want you drunk if you don’t wanna be drunk, she wouldn’t want you high if you don’t wanna be high, she’s more concerned about your well-being if you were having fun. Throughout the party she is constantly checking on people and making sure they’re having a good time, so when it comes to Blitz, she can tell that he has self-destructive behavior. She even expressed that she wasn’t shaming him for it, just concerned for him.

3. She blew up because Loona lashed out. Bees popularity was a threat to Loona in her eyes because of the other popular dogs that bullied Loona earlier in the episode. It’s understandable that she saw that as an attack but that doesn’t mean Bee was in the wrong. I would get upset too if I tried to help someone out and their own kid brushed it off. Self destructive behavior is never safe, it’s never fine to brush off. Someone with that behavior needs a helpful hand to keep them under control, and loona needed some sense snapped into her.

I’m not saying it’s loonas fault what happened to blitz or blitz is her responsibility. They are both grown and can take care of themselves, but if you were in that situation and your friend was acting like blitz, tell me you would leave them high and dry and I’ll shut my mouth.

I’m also not saying it was okay for Bee to blow up, she definitely could have handled it better. A better response would have been to just say “no offense, I’m just concerned and I care” and walk away. There’s never a need for violence, so that situation should have never started in the first place. Even still, Bee immediately showed remorse and expressed that she was just worried.

4. Tex. Loona only backed off because he looked embarrassed. This part upsets me a bit because it’s clear from the start that Loona was uncomfortable with Bee so she herself didn’t make any effort to be friends. In my opinion, she’s felt threatened by the popularity since the start AND I will admit that Bees energy is aggressively extroverted so it can be off putting to an introvert so I think that’s another reason she was put off by her too. I can’t help but include that maaaybeee Loona was also put off cause she was crushing on Tex. She actually tried to leave the party after she found out they were dating. I feel like this played into her pulling away from the fight, whatever residual feelings were left. Though I hope not because another hell hound is was brought her back into the party so who knows. I hope it’s was platonic care and not romantic care that she had for him at that point, just for the sake of drama cause Loona doesn’t deserve anymore bs drama.

Now, I personally was not able to pin point why Tex made that face, but everyone said it was because of Bee getting angry. I think it was partially that, him being shocked by her getting big like she did and that put him in a vulnerable place AND that he felt bad. He considers Loona a friend and was probably hoping that they all would become friends. The expression felt like guilt, like he almost blames himself for the fight, like he thinks that he’s made Loona and Bees night worse.

Conclusion: Everyone really didn’t want Loona to be in the wrong but I feel like it makes the episode better. I’m tired of here’s a good character, now here’s the antagonist and they clash. We got to see actual flaws and characteristics play out in multiple characters. I hated seeing people hate on Bee, and I imagine those people probably share similar experiences with Loona so it’s understandable that they would feel how Loona felt, but those same people are also going to learn just like Loona that not everyone is out to bully them.

Bonus, Bee would not have defended Blitz in court like she did if she didn’t like him or Loona, so there’s that. Bee backed up blitz even after the “I hate blitz Halloween party” where she donated her juice. In a world where anyone can hate you for no reason and fuck you over for fun, Bee is your best chance at a real friend in hell.

Anyway, I’ve been sitting on this rant since the episode came out. Thank you for listening!

Trying to get all the Korok seeds and this one puzzle just won’t respawn correctly? I slipped up with the puzzle when I first played and got the apple that was supposed to stay, and now it just won’t respawn. I’ve tried leaving and coming back, picking all the apples, leaving and coming back, cutting down the trees, leaving and coming back. Everything respawns but the apple I need. Been trying for days now and it’s nagging at me, what do I do?
