oosdkk dude im sorry ur mood dropped too.. i hope u feel better soon <3 but like i wld love 2 hear more abt ur thoughts on Art in general bc Boy Is He Interesting, and also a lil more abt Daniel coming out as nonbinary to his dad (whether he knows Eric is trans or not at that moment skjdfhdskf)! + if ur feelin it just more abt Mallick in general ESP cuz we agree that Brit doesn't make it thru V
djhfjdks thank u sm <3
okay Art first. I genuinely wonder abt him so much, something in specific I think abt is that aside frm Amanda (+ Eric, obviously, but talkin abt disciples) Art is one of the only trap victims EVER 2 be tested twice and itā€™s like... whatā€™s that abt? Why? as uā€™ve said b4 it rly depends on how you personally view his character: whether heā€™s a disciple or not. fr me, both options are equally plausible, n honestly I donā€™t rly confine myself to either; it sorta depends on what Iā€™m feeling/writing. if weā€™re talking abt art being a disciple, then the Spinecutter not going off (one of my BIGGEST questions) makes total sense, as Hoffmanā€™s side of the trap was never set up to work either, + Jigsaw disciples have a history (aside from Lawrence) of appearing as victims in other tests/traps. if he were not just another pawn and was in fact a disciple himself, then the Spinecutter was never meant to go off - it was there just to make Eric think it COULD go off/make it look convincing to outsiders. which brings me to ANOTHER question: what does Art know abt Eric? does he know anything? what does he think of Eric?
(lil side note: if Art is a disciple, then I kinda wonder if itā€™s a lil bit of a Hoffman + Lawrence situation where Hoffman didnā€™t know abt Art either? just bc he looks so shocked when he sees Artā€™s face fully fr the first time... that couldā€™ve just been acting on Hoffmanā€™s part but IDK. food fr thought)
personally, I feel like Art probably does know a lil bit abt Eric - at the very least, heā€™d know tht Eric had been previously tested + failed by Johnā€™s rules, but then I feel that he wld also know Eric didnā€™t rly have a chance in his second test. that is why Art trying so fucking hard to keep Eric alive is interesting 2 me: what is his motivation 2 do that? like heā€™s been told Ericā€™s basically just there to get Rigg to participate, he doesnā€™t have any personal obligation or anything like that. sure, the aim is to keep Eric alive + see if Rigg can pass his ā€œtest,ā€ but nobody said anything about grabbing a man you barely know around his ankles to keep him frm hanging himself w a noose made of chains. nobody said anything abt speaking to him so softly, not even raising your voice beyond saying ā€œhey,ā€ and asking him do you understand? when you tell him to keep still and prevent him frm killing his counterpart (which, if Art is a disciple, he knows it wonā€™t, but he still speaks to Eric so softly, so compassionately, doesnā€™t he?)
nobody said anything abt grabbing him around the waist and steadying him again after being punched by said man. but Art does that. he stabilizes Ericā€™s feet on the ice as best he can and he keeps his hips straight and he basically says ā€œlook, weā€™re all stuck here, you need to keep it together ā€˜til that clock counts down if you want us to live, but Iā€™m giving you a choice,ā€ and he presses the gun w the single bullet into Ericā€™s hands and tells him itā€™s up to him. nobody said Art had to care but he does, I think, and itā€™s just like. he really didnā€™t have to keep Eric alive over the course of Riggā€™s test. he didnā€™t. but he did and I just,, where does it come from? why does he care? this is even going beyond the fact that weā€™ve talked abt them being together after their test in a scenario where they both survive - I just think that Art at his core is a very stubborn but very compassionate person, whether he wants 2 be or not. like he HAS to know that kind of involvement cld prove to be extremely detrimental but he cares. I feel like that says a lot abt him (even if he does call Eric an asshole a couple times while doing it,,).
plus I also just. I think his reason for being tested (as it seems to be in most cases) is extremely flimsy. he was doing his job. heā€™s a LAWYER. often times it has nothing 2 do w personal feelings; theyā€™re there to do their job and sometimes, unfortunately, that is defending possibly reprehensible people (in cases like Rexā€™s & Ivanā€™s). + John was already upset w him regarding their argument abt the urban renewal group so like it just feels So Very Petty, yā€™know?? even in the scenario where he IS a disciple, testing him twice seems entirely like John having a personal vendetta against him. Amanda is the only other person to be tested twice aside from Eric, so like. what. is that abt Mr. Kramer.
like Iā€™ve said b4 in dms one could argue that Art is grey morally, bc we never rly see anything of him outside of flashbacks + acting as a test controller in IV, esp given that he... rly doesnā€™t seem too bothered abt it all? which is fair. but I also feel like the concern he shows towards Eric is smth to be considered as well.
-
+ YESS NONBINARY DANIEL I know Iā€™ve mentioned it b4 but for reference, I read Daniel as masc nonbinary (he/they)! so I feel like Daniel wld b pretty comfortable w his identity, heā€™s never rly had a reason not to be (itā€™s rly anyoneā€™s guess here tho bc we never see Eric + Daniel + Kate... as a family unit, for obvious reasons), so I feel like heā€™s vry chill abt it? and in the scenario where Eric survives n is dating Adam, I feel like Daniel wld talk 2 him abt it first (Adam is an adult they quickly come to trust + heā€™s vocal abt being trans himself so thereā€™s that added layer of understanding - other than his mom maybe Adam might b the first person they come out 2). theyā€™re just kinda like ā€œso I wanna tell my dad Iā€™m nonbinary but like Iā€™ve literally never thought abt coming out what do I doā€ and Adamā€™s just like. Aha. bc he knows Eric is Also Trans so like, he doesnā€™t tell Daniel that bc itā€™s not his info to share, but heā€™s definitely like ā€œoh itā€™ll totally be fine. trust me you have no reason to worryā€ so Danielā€™s just like Okay. I Got This
+ I know I mentioned this in dms but Daniel wld absolutely wear those floral ripped hem skirts over jeans, so I feel like on one of his visits to his dadā€™s, he just. wears that combined w a completely random niche graphic tee he bought when shopping w Adam (I adore this hc n I am Holding Onto It) n is just like. not super open abt it bc he doesnā€™t know what to expect? he just kinda waits fr Eric to comment on it but when he doesnā€™t, Daniel gets nervous n is like ā€œdo I look okay?ā€ and Ericā€™s rly chill abt it, like ā€œyeah! it looks vry cool, vry alternative.ā€ n like Daniel is relieved, of course, but also heā€™s just like God Pls Say Something so he just comes out w it like ā€œokay this is not working. Iā€™m nonbinary.ā€
and heā€™s COMPLETELY SHOCKED when Eric is just like ā€œoh why didnā€™t u say so? do u have a different name u wanna go by? is Daniel still okay?ā€ bc he wasnā€™t sure how much Eric knew, so heā€™s just like ā€œuh no Daniel is still good, he/they pronouns thoughā€ and Ericā€™s just like alright cool but internally Danielā€™s just like ??????
n THAT is when Eric asks him 2 come sit out on th front steps w him n is just like. ā€œI donā€™t think I ever told u this but Iā€™m trans. I transitioned during training in my early 20sā€ n Daniel is nodding while internally heā€™s like Adam Iā€™m gonna throttle u. he worked himself up fr NOTHING. he just kinda laughs abt it and Eric is like ā€œare u good?ā€ ā€˜cause heā€™s a lil worried but then Daniel just smiles and is like ā€œyeah Iā€™m fine! just realizing I had nothing 2 be worried abtā€ and itā€™s a rly good moment fr them. they sit out there together talking abt their experiences for quite a while n at some point Adam steps outside 2 find them deep in conversation + he just smiles n goes back inside bc he cares abt them both so much and seeing them talk like that makes him so šŸ’žšŸ’ž (Eric is SO PROUD u can see it on his face)
-
ohhh gosh Mallick,,, I spend a lot of time thinking abt him actually. heā€™s just one of those characters I feel vry connected to (me šŸ¤ Mallick: Ambiguous Disorder šŸ’•) n one I got surprisingly attached to? hello (he IS one of my f/os)
I feel like Mallick is a very lonely person at his core. the way he sort of clings to Brit (w out the whole like. adrenaline of being in very very real danger w ppl trying to kill u SEVERAL TIMES) somewhat confirms this fr me. this is someone who has no reason to look out fr him, no reason to keep protecting him when their fellow captives hit him over th head w a club or attempt to push him into a bathtub to ELECTROCUTE him, but she keeps doing it and heā€™s just. in awe of it a little bit? ā€˜cause she could just let Charles knock him tf out or let Luba push him in but she fights for him, some1 she has no obligation to n met fr the first time literally when they woke up.
the moment they share b4 they stick their arms into the saws to activate the 10 Pints of Sacrifice is so very vulnerable and maybe even a little tender. yes he calls her a monster, yes she calls him one back, neither of them deny it. itā€™s an admission and an acceptance. theyā€™re monsters, sure, fine, okay. but they are monsters and they are in this together. Brit tells Mallick itā€™s okay when he says he canā€™t do this alone. she says okay, okay, itā€™s okay, weā€™ll go together. and they help each other secure their tourniquets and they stick their hands in together bc itā€™s the two of them, literally hand in hand, fighting for their lives n for each other n theyā€™re in so so much pain but they are doing it TOGETHER. I lose it thinking abt it!!! they even have a head bonk moment!!! I very much feel like it has some cinematic parallels to Adam & Lawrenceā€™s moment in SAW 2004!!!!
+ as u mentioned, we both share the thought that Brit likely died since she wasnā€™t present at Bobbyā€™s meetings, and. I want to touch on how fucking despondent and lost Mallick looks when we see him again in 3D. lights on but no oneā€™s home. I feel like for Mallick, losing Brit was losing the first chance at a real connection heā€™s had in god knows how long - and for him, thatā€™s just very shattering. heā€™s been thru hell, heā€™s watched three people die right in front of him, he sawed his ARM IN HALF, n the person he went through all of that with didnā€™t make it. but he did. and I feel like for Mallick thatā€™s just like... he doesnā€™t understand it. but he feels even lonelier than he ever has b4 because the One Person who was there w him thru it all, the one person who could ever possibly understand what happened that night, is gone.
the Mallick we see in V would NEVER sit down n willingly listen to Bobby Dagenā€™s bullshit abt loving yr scars n taking pride in the fact u survived. he wld hate that man with a passion n I am very much sure of this. the fact that heā€™s sitting in that chair looking numb and glassy-eyed and silent? Mallick is trying to find some1 to connect to, find a place where maybe he belongs. trying to fill that hole that losing Brit made. why else wld he be sitting there, listening to someone he would ordinarily tell to shove his self-love bullshit up his ass? heā€™s lost. heā€™s just trying to keep his head above water and find a way to shore even though everything in him is fighting not to. heā€™s adrift without her.
+ ALTERNATIVELY, bc the reality of that is just. crushing n maybe not where I needed 2 go, in the scenario where Brit survived + just doesnā€™t want to put up w Bobbyā€™s bullshit, I imagine them to actually move in together after a lil bit of time getting 2 know each other better w out the pressure of ā€œoh god weā€™re gonna die.ā€ she kinda helps him build up a sense of self-worth bc GOD itā€™s practically non-existent n thinking abt possible reasons why makes me sad. sheā€™s definitely just like ā€œno, you do deserve to be cared for and you deserve help when you need it, you deserve good things n to be happy.ā€ she just kinds shuts it down while still making sure to talk 2 him abt WHY he feels that way (sheā€™s not dismissing, but sheā€™s trying to nip it in th bud) n Mallick is just like. huh. bc no oneā€™s really done that fr him before. but it rly does end up helping in the long run, even if it is a very slow pace toward actually getting 2 a place where he recognizes his own worth + realizes he deserves all the things he wants Brit 2 have too. theyā€™re there for each other thru thick n thin and if they made it thru their game, they can make it thru anything.

Itā€™s not just their interaction that matters, itā€™s seeing their actions whilst fully aware of their pasts to identify growth/change and how others can see their love even when they are not physically together: itā€™s in how Josie says ā€˜my father is a fool, one look at you and he shouldā€™ve known how this would endā€™, itā€™s in how Bellamy seems to ā€˜care about her moreā€™ than everyone else he cares about (according to J, who is apparently great at reading people est. ep7). Itā€™s how Russell says to Josie ā€˜have you become so callous to the feelings of others that you donā€™t remember what itā€™s like to lose someone you love?ā€™ when canonically she has only expressed loss with Gabriel. She talks about how G has been trying to kill her for 70 years and says ā€˜relationships, yknow?ā€™ As if B was gonna be like ā€˜lol truā€™, then she takes a walk down memory lane, saying ā€˜bestiesā€™ before claiming how BC is ā€˜weirdā€™. Youā€™re right Josie, louder!
Itā€™s weird because in s1, the script says Bellamy was thrown by the intimacy then said that for a moment Clarke wanted to run away with him as she held his face in her hands? platonically?What even?? I know, so glad we got this 131 year old slow burn instead. Itā€™s weird because they flirted and C invited B to get a drink with her but B turned her down, choosing to be the responsible boy that will have his fun when the grounders come... Itā€™s weird because there was a Lexa-Clarke-Bellamy love triangle according to Alycia (Do I even need to go on?)
Itā€™s weird because Clarke jumped on Niylah after putting her hand on top of hers that were on her shoulders, itā€™s her mating ritual for when she wants to get laid. Observe: she pulled the same shit on Bellamy in the list scene only for him to tell her ā€˜get some sleepā€™ (LOL awks - who told her to platonically smush her face on top of their hands that rested on her shoulder for 10+ seconds - maybe B was thrown by the intimacy again bc he was like ā€˜gtgā€™ lol) and she ended up in Niylahā€™s bed the next morning.
Itā€™s weird because Clarke was willing to sacrifice her mother in s3 (Abby was literally hanging when B came in right on time) but gave into Roanā€™s blackmail with B and Kane in s4 - WELL of course because Kane is her stepdad!!! but...she was willing to let her mum die and thatā€™s exactly what she reminds Roan and the viewers before it becomes canon that Bellamy is THAT pal ā„¢ that is more important than your mother + 50 skykru lives that were dropped from the list just like that even though the whole season Clarke had been all for her people first. Remember when he was about to open the bunker and Clarke fully thought she was saving the human race by locking skykru in but let B open it anyway, crying as she couldnā€™t even shoot him in the leg or something? Talk about WEAK! Bellamy somehow convinced her to let everyone in?šŸ‘€ Clexa coalition parallels anyone? No? Ok.
Remember how she looked as she volunteers to go with B to get Raven even tho 5 secs ago, she was ok leaving her and every other friend and human out to die? (Sidenote: ā€˜I never meant to hurt youā€™ like CLARKE PLS, you were about let around 600 people die and ur talking about Bellamy? Check urself, heā€™s pissed too - until he isnā€™t because Clarke says ā€˜nothing is okay, no matter what I choose, somebody always diesā€™ which makes B make light of it (bc he always understands) with ā€˜not shooting me was the right choiceā€™ leading to it being canon that BC staring at each other causes them to run over someone and crash their very necessary life-saving vehicle... Who tf wrote this???) Throwback to TondC (ā€˜I did it to save Bellamyā€™ followed ā€˜what if I sent him in there to dieā€™ which followed ā€˜you should go, I was being weakā€™ - the LENgths she was willing to go to progressed with her worry for him that it was truly tragic for the grounder villagers (but tbf Lexa did convince her so Heda is right, they totally couldnā€™t have created a fire diversion as Clarke suggested) and that worry turned into literal platonic love as, for a moment, it was tragic for everyone outside the bunker too that second times C had to make a similar choice. The narrative really made Clarke say and do those things in that order huh? Wow) Remember how she was ready to let O die and keep B in the bunker, have him hate her to parallel kabby that season? HOW is B still alive? He was all like ā€˜Iā€™m not gonna be in the bunkerā€™ and Clarkeā€™s like ā€˜you WILLā€™ before he even finishes his sentence lol. He did say ā€˜people die when youā€™re in chargeā€™ and yet... itā€™s almost like idk, Clarke never wants to lose him ever.
Platonically of course because their attraction to each other has disappeared since s1... because you see that person and youā€™re like ā€˜lol nvm, ur not as hot as I remember 6 years ago when we were giving each other the looksā„¢ā€™ right? So you just watch them make out with their SO twice in canon to drive that point home. Especially when itā€™s your bff that you talked to everyday for 2199 days according to Flame!Madi who strutted right up to Bellamy, demanded he forgive C (lexa, is that you fighting in Clarkeā€™s corner? šŸ˜­) before telling him something she ā€˜SHOULDNā€™tā€™ tell him?? Sorry Clarke, was this a private thing that Madi was privy to that she felt she shouldnā€™t expose or did you tell her not to mention it?? Madi said ā€˜she called YOUā€™ lol, like when is Madi gonna expose Clarkeā€™s radio calls to Raven pls, I need the platonic princess mechanic relationship instantly restored like that! The radio call elixir: makes you soft for you bff and invite her to decide the fate of the human race as you always do (we genuinely love a platonic team!) despite the fact she left you to die 2 days ago for endangering her kid in the name of stopping the war, which she herself decided to later do after Lexa, her romantic soulmate, tells her not to make the same mistake she did because it would be her biggest regret. Lexa tells C donā€™t abandon your platonic palā„¢, love is not weakness and life should be about more than just surviving. Did Lexa say Bellarke rights, Clarke be happy and let yourself love him? No, Lexa wants BC to live like her and Clarke did in her bed? No, no, Lexa said ā€˜live like Clexa, but donā€™t have sexā€™? Yup thatā€™s what happened. And C has the audacity to say ā€˜save himā€™ after giving her child permission to walk into a war zone and endanger her life like.. I prayed Lexa protects Madi yes pls.
Either way, let your bff know you love him! Say ā€˜bro, you kept me sane and I love you for thatā€™- itā€™s easy gsjsjah why you making it so hard, girl?? Hug and move on, letā€™s go! There was a perfect opportunity around that fire where you instead wasted time saying ā€˜all of me for all of usā€™ to just B? (All of u is for all two of you huh? Jk jk lol this is the most platonic thing in s5, I digress) before giving him ur bread lmao y so dramatic, we love extra af jokester pals (I do really like the platonic bad jokes fr tho šŸ˜‚šŸ‘ŒšŸ¾)
(All is fun and games until the joy of reuniting with Madi is gone the second she sees becho. Like SMILE, Clarke, your soulmate pal ā„¢ found his romantic soulmate like you found yours, remember?)
EVERY DAY for 2199 days huh?: Itā€™s canon that Clarke Griffin after getting radiation roasted, decided to pick up her radio from the floor with her blistered hand that first day to try to call Bellamy, wanting to find out asap if he were alive... He didnā€™t respond and C had two choices they were alive or they were dead? Either way she said fuck it, Imma hope heā€™s alive and imma call Bellamy every day like the palā„¢ that I am, not even thinking like this: ā€˜imma talk to lexa bc sheā€™s the love of my life and itā€™s literally just been 2-3 months since she got put in the flame and the flame is on Earth with me so Iā€™m at peace.ā€™ Like why wasnā€™t that canon instead?? Instead we got ā€˜I still have hopeā€™ @ B 2199 days later.
The platonicness of Madi looking at Bellamy only and going ā€˜Clarke knew you would comeā€™ and grabbing him by the hand like sheā€™s his BFF? (thatā€™s Clarkeā€™s BFF Madi, get your own!) sorry but Madi has never met him in her life but sheā€™s like ā€˜Clarkeā€™s in troubleā€™ and suddenly B has been kidnapped by a kid. The rest of spacekru left alone in the forest to figure out their own shit bc B said ā€˜gtg save my bestie brbā€™ - NOT EVEN, he straight up left them stranded LMAO. (S6 in a nutshell tbh) Then Clarke in s6 has the audacity to look caught ā„¢ when B casually brings radio calls up as friends would, he says itā€™s a lil pathetic and Clarke becomes the literal sun and B becomes the moon, shining all the laughs right back at her. Meanwhile, Clarkeā€™s large ass pupils are drinking in all this HAPPINESS - not to reach but was that an example of life being more than just surviving? We actually have time for jokes and banter now? Fck Yeah āœØāœØ
Whatā€™s funny is the fact that Jordan knew about the head and the heart convo from s4 because B mustā€™ve told Monty/Harper somewhere between being on the ring and before going into cryo. Since s5 was canon of what happened between returning to earth and going into cryo, logic leads me to believe Bellamy talked to marper about the head and the heart on the ring. Itā€™s funny how Bellamy still got emotional when sheā€™s brought up 6 years after ā€˜her deathā€™ (Clexa parallels anyone?) and funny how determined he is to honour Clarkeā€™s last words (be the head so their friends survive) only to say ā€˜I donā€™t need you anymoreā€™ under psychosis, is that a trauma I see? šŸ‘€ soz, did I miss the season Bellamy said he needed Clarke? Only Clarke says the word need (ā€˜I need youā€™, ā€˜we need each other, Bellamyā€™) unless thatā€™s what he meant when he said ā€˜you got it backwardsā€™ (@ Jaha saying you keep her centered)or when he whispered ā€˜Iā€™ve got you for thatā€™ or when he shouted ā€˜I CANā€™T lose Clarke... we canā€™t lose herā€™. Either way, I love platonic soulmates that need each other.
(Randomly just remembered when B had that nice pal talk with Wells about how Clarke never sees him when Finnā€™s around, lolll what?? Weirdo. BC parallels with Wells and Clarke? Yes pls)
Tell your bff you love them challenge ft. Clarke who said ā€˜u look fine today, sad boy so Iā€™mma look you over from the tips of ur toes to the top of ur head platonically then tell you youā€™re special and that your sis will come aroundā€™ and B who canonically says ā€˜Clarke, if I donā€™t see you again-ā€˜ only for Clarke to be like ā€˜you WILLā€™ before B even finished his sentence - itā€™s rude to interrupt your friends when theyā€™re talking Clarke! He was only gonna say ā€˜may we meet againā€™ anyway bc for some reason yā€™all bffs donā€™t canonically say ā€˜I love you [bro]ā€™ and maybe B knows itā€™s because you hate I love yous and donā€™t say it unless you think itā€™s goodbye forever.
Itā€™s in how Clarke puts Bellamy at the same level as Madi and cannot face Bellamy in her mind space, despite him being alive, because she thinks that he thinks sheā€™s a monster - she cannot see her platonic palā€™s love, I love that trope. Itā€™s in how Clarke says ā€˜Iā€™m not leaving youā€™ because her biggest regret was leaving B in the pits (but also the time she left him after MW) and itā€™s in how Bellamy says ā€˜I wonā€™t let you dieā€™ after letting her die twice now, I call that growth. So J mocks their weird relationship and B is like ā€˜lols I knowā€™. He has a girlfriend who lied to him about her past during the 6 uninterrupted years they spent on the ring and he starts an argument with her seemingly out of nowhere (after watching Clarke dance with the doctor) and lying that at the last party he was at, he couldnā€™t protect his sister when we damn well know that the last party he was at was Jasperā€™s, does echo not know about Jasper? Did no one (Bellamy) tell her? He didnā€™t have to say ā€˜the last party I was atā€™ he couldā€™ve easily said ā€˜at the party on Arkā€™. The way he even said this sounded like he was telling Echo for the first time what happened to his sister... they didnā€™t talk about the reason he ended up on the ground whilst on the ring huh? When Echo says something reasonable, he snaps that this is about feelings and that he never knows how she feels about anything... sounds like heā€™s projecting but Iā€™m not going to tell you how to interpret it. Then when Echo opens up about her past, B says ā€˜you told me you didnā€™t remember your parentsā€™. I love watching becho development because itā€™s clear how becho are not as compatible as we wouldā€™ve thought. (My headcanon up until s6 for them was that they connected over their similar childhoods and responsibility to their people and share the burden of the sins theyā€™ve committed to live and grow together whilst finding peace in each other)
(This is just a snippet of how I see BC and I have no reason to be biased towards it. In fact, during s2-3 I actively made myself ship Clexa more than I shipped BC because I wanted that win for lgbt rep - yes, my mind is that extra that even without social media influence on my binge viewing experience, I felt that Clexa deserved E V E R Y T H I N G so believe me when I say I didnā€™t want this blarke life šŸ™ƒ)
Everyone is agreed that they have an awesome non-sexual soulmate love? Yes? I admit, they COULD be platonic, depending on your definition of sexuality. Platonic is defined as ā€˜love or friendship that is affectionate/intimate but not sexualā€™.
If Clarke died next ep, bellarke will be remembered as platonic by those that believe sexual acts are what make a relationship romantic and remembered as romantic by those that infer sexual chemistry/feelings/thoughts in certain bellarke scenes.
Imo, itā€™s not logical to believe sexuality is only physical: it goes against basic common sense in that people would only be considered straight/gay/bi etc. at the point of their first sexual encounter and dating relationships would be platonic until the first sexual act within it.
Personally, I think romantic relationships arise with intention: the shared understanding of what you are offering each other (sexual acts included) and how you prioritise your person over all other humans.
Itā€™s not crude to appreciate the intricacy of physical attraction or understand the implications of it driving the need to be as intimate as possible with someone. And the problem with bellarke is that there IS sexual chemistry and attraction. Itā€™s established in season 1 and itā€™s made headlines - not that you should care- but both types of people (that would now consider bellarke platonic and those that wouldnā€™t) probably picked up on it because this aspect of their relationship was planned and written into the story. Longing and pining to just BE with someone is the pinnacle of romance and not only is it canon that bellarke look at each other with humongous pupils, it is also canon (through writing, direction and music) that bellarke prioritise each other, are extremely vulnerable to each other, always want to be ā€˜togetherā€™ do things ā€˜togetherā€™ no matter what. So Iā€™m failing to understand why people donā€™t want to look at all the evidence and draw the clear conclusion: Bellarke tick every box for a romantic relationship except sexual acts and I think itā€™s a disservice to not recognise the reality of them as the epic love story that they are. Letā€™s not even mention the possibility that the reason they havenā€™t ticked that box is because they have given themselves over to their people in selfless duty or continued trauma from lost lovers.
Iā€™m gonna conclude by saying I ship Clexa and Bellarke but with whatā€™s going on in the story rn, bellarke are it for me. Iā€™d say endgame but it could all change if thereā€™s narrative to suggest otherwise. What I see happening by the end of the series is lexa being back (in what capacity idk) and either Clexa or Bellarke being party to the ā€˜I will love you forever but I will learn to love someone else so that we can chersish the relationship we have for what it is, not what it has been or what it could be, and be happy together foreverā€™ while the other is canon endgame. Or maybe be by the series finale weā€™ll get endgame polygamy? - Now thatā€™s edgy af! But those are best case scenarios lol.
Realistically, atleast one of BC are gonna die, Lexa will be brought back as Alycia but not into the real world (unless we get plot that finally exposes the mental space realm??? That sounds fucking dope tbh - theyā€™ve been teasing alternate realities this whole damn show and what is more sci-fi than that? It would also incorporate the flame and Jason loves the flame and Clexa love the flame so??? Anyone wanna hire me as a writer?) and thereā€™s endless possibilities really so Iā€™m conflicted between hoping that Book 2 is less about tragedy/survival and more about happiness/life and knowing that hope for the 100 is offbrand and too much of a reach, with the evidence that we have but the writers could easily get us all there, man. Iā€™m excited!

ok so hereā€™s the story from a-z so iā€™ve never vacationed at a lake before?? but apparently the fam was into it idk. so three of my siblings went down to the dock where i was reading (itā€™s a creepy ass dock scratch that a creepy ass place i have the receipts so does kianna ask her it is on its friday the 13th shit and did i mention i have to sleep alone in one of the cabins tonight? boi bai but anyway) they were all like omg caelyn get in the water with us and i was like probs not but ok. and they are splashing and being gross but highkey iā€™m too scared bc for some reason the water was giving me anaconda the movie vibes so i wasnā€™t gonna go in! but they are stinky and calling me out for being scared (iā€™m the oldest out of who was there but do i care? no itā€™s scary) and somehow they convinced me to get in. well more like pushed they pushed me in. i was screaming. like i tried to climb back up and these demons would kick my head back down like what !!!! anyway all drama aside i eventually was okay with it and we were like u kno what would be cool? floaties. or whatever those big things are called like tubes and shark floats or wtvr. so we got in we were splashing but lowkey i was waiting for the snakes to come. but anyway so weā€™re racing and stuff and eventually i was over it so i just got out and my siblings were like omg caelyn get your float as i was like ok but it like .. started to drift away. by then i was too lazy to get it even tho i def could have (ok actually i was once again scared bc i floated towards the creepy hanging boat we have so i said not today) but they started yelling bc it was my fault but meanwhile none of their asses were getting it either if it was such a big deal ??? so i was like i am only getting it if y'all swim with me and they wouldnā€™t and tbh itā€™s pathetic lol iā€™m 4 years older than the oldest one my sisters that were there but whatever. so they are just being mean and iā€™m too scared and so it starts to get FAR like so far away so i actually start swimming bc imma get my ass beat if i lose it. so i head off, super scared bc i know the snakes were following me. and jet skis and boats and shit are making waves so iā€™m like fr and the tube is just so gone now but iā€™m swimming anyway. i mean in a blink of an eye this floatie vanished. then iā€™m like damn imma drown (the irony bc i used to swim competitively like iā€™m a swimmer but i did NOT want to do this i wanted to die via drowning instead of snakes ok) but eventually iā€™m like ā€œHELP OMG HELPā€ bc i was getting too lazy and then this big boat comes and is like ā€œum u ok famā€ and i said ā€œno iā€™m dying and i lost my floatieā€ bc by then my man was gone like out of sight idk how it happened. so i can still hear my siblings yelling at me from the shore, the skanks were salty bc they knew theyā€™d get in trouble too. then the people in the boat pick me up but tbh in that moment i felt like if my brother and sisters werenā€™t there i may have been kidnapped bc iā€™m paranoid. anyway. so i am getting yelled at by them ugh so annoying so i haul ass up to the house to tell my parents and my grandparents about what happened. i rly didnā€™t want to but i swear my little siblings were bullying me! lol. my gma is like fr caelyn and my mom was like just go swim for it but ??? pls. so my dad and grandpa are like ok weā€™re gonna drive to the other end bc he thought he could see it out of the window (this is so dramatic all for a tube!!) like he was out there with binoculars. i felt bad so i was like ā€œok iā€™ll stay in my bathing suit so i can dive in this is my duty my responsibility my faultā€ n everyone rolled their eyes bc they know iā€™m flaky lol. anyway we get in the car and my grandpa drives us to the house where he thinks he saw it get stuck by a pier. so we walk up to the door (the house is gorgeous itā€™s aesthetic probs cost a million and bajillion dollars) and knock. no one answers. we see packages out front so weā€™re like ā€œok maybe theyā€™re awayā€ so my grandpa sNEAKS AROUND BACK AND STARTS TRESPASSING and iā€™m like oh no this is death. so i go with him and we run out back and get on their dock which is LIT. iā€™m talking hammocks, jet skis, couches, chairs, a boat, a bAR LIKE AN ALCOHOL BAR (lowkey i looked for some jameson), and all this crap i was shook. we looked and couldnā€™t find this stupid ass float thing and then a boat comes thru. itā€™s the people and the dog that saved my life!! but like ā€¦ they were getting close and i was sure they were getting ready to dock so i start sweating. this was their house weā€™re about to get our asses beat. so my grandpaā€™s charming ass self starts to explain the situation and the lady is like ā€¦ ok she said okay like maybe 50 times i was fr sweating. perspiration was real. and then like they start actually connecting i was like um whatā€™s happening. theyā€™re talking and heā€™s being all smooth and the husband was like ok lemme get out on one of our thousand jet skis and see if i can find it. and so my grandpa and the wife are just talking and iā€™m sitting there with the dog chilling then theyā€™re like ā€œomg we have the same lawyer !! whatā€ like they are BONDING OVER HERE HE GOT HER NUMBER SHEā€™S LIKE COME OVER FOR A COCKTAIL?!? i was shook like we fr were committing a crime and snooping and btw they like saved my life earlier and def thought i was problematic but here we are. then i start talking w them and they live right next to my university they offered me to chill during the school year like ???? and she said if i ever wanted to VACATION WITH THEM in california i could like wffffff they are freaking millionaires i will take them up on that. anyway so we made bros with these people and they were like ok weā€™ll text u if we find it (text us wtf is happening guys this is all bc of a floatie and my problematic lazy ass). but i mean we still didnā€™t find the tube but by then we said whatever letā€™s just buy a new one (after 2 hours we came to this genius conclusion). so we go back to our cabins and my grandpa is like OMG I SEE IT HOP BACK IN THE CAR and by now iā€™m 50 shades of done with this but itā€™s my fault so i hauled ass. so we get in the car and start driving god knows where iā€™m like wtf but we arrive at ANOTHER HOUSE itā€™s under construction so my grandpa is like yeah we can def trespass here too and iā€™m like !! tf ??? but i get out anyway. and #1 iā€™m like how do you know the floatie is here this is tragic. so we start walking towards the lake but itā€™s like all woods here iā€™m fr walking in my bikini and flip flops itā€™s tragic. so my grandpa is like ā€œok u stop i donā€™t want you to get hurt so just stand hereā€ and tbh i didnā€™t protest bc iā€™m lazy trash and also i know he wouldnā€™t let me i could get in trouble lol. so my 72 year old grandfather in his golf shirt and khaki pants starts climbing down to the lake and i see him JUMP OVER A FENCe he is as extra as i am. but yeah so then he disappears and he calls me and heā€™s like ā€œis the tube black with yellow shitā€ and i said !!!! thatā€™s it!! so 5 mins later he runs up, sweating and holding the tube i just stood there like ā€œthis was the most extra thing they are $5 at the storeā€ but we found it we got it we survived and then we went home and had drinks with the millionaires lol so this was very long but iā€™m not a good story teller it was so DRAMATIC and i donā€™t think i hyped up enough the part where i almost died i was going under my fear was crimpling. but lol the end!! this was not worth the wait lol but lemme tell you the millionaires are cool iā€™m about to go jet ski also hmu if you wanna see pics of my friday the 13 house i'm sleeping in alone i'm shook
