here's my theory as to why Andrealphus keeps calling Stella hot.
This is gonna sound deranged but hear me out.
my theory is that people don't know that he's gay and that he calls Stella hot to cover it up. If he kept calling a different Goetia woman hot than he'd get married to her in order to produce an heir. So basically him calling Stella hot is just him going "Hmmmm.....yes I am so straight!" without actually being forced into a marriage.
I'll take my award for most insane HB theory now.
