eden is the most doomed by the narrative character i've ever made. the only way for an even semi happy ending to be possible, eden had to have the worst time of her life. eden was the only one who could kill engel and stop reverie. elysium knew this had to happen and that this was how things had to go. she had to bring eden in to the main narrative. eden had to know she was an npc in this game. she had to break the code and glitch out the save files. she had to be someone reverie could start to see as a person. she had to break their save and betray them. it had to happen this way. it had to happen. elysium knew this, knew this would ruin eden, and pushed the narrative in that direction. there was nothing eden could do. if she had tried to do something different, it wouldn't have mattered. the game would reset and it would happen all over again.
#text#in a manor of speaking#eden#elysium#reverie#the game is a world that functions almost like our own. full of possibilities. so many paths to take#and yet. this was the only one that needed to happen#elysium rewrote the narrative for this. rewrote the code. eden was doomed before the new run had even started#just. reverie and eden being two sides of The Narrative coin#reverie trying with all their power to doom the narrative to break it to pieces and escape#and eden doomed by the narrative to stop them. it would never let either of them win#and elysium. the writer of the narrative. spending time with her friends aware she was pushing them towards something awful

a’ight. let’s look at what I got wrong.
Wrong
i was wrong about the timing of a bellarke kiss. i make no apologies. i have claimed myself to be the captain of #teamfuckingkissalready and if you missed that bias, then that’s your own fault. HOWEVER, the theories that have inspired my certainty that bellarke is romantic are not wrong and have been confirmed every freaking season. I’m impatient. I didn’t see the need to wait. Then. I see it now. I mean I still want them to kiss.
Cannibalism. I never said it couldn’t happen. I did say I didn’t like it. And that’s mostly because I didn’t like the way the fandom was going after it and some of the bad theories made me want to ignore the good ones. I basically just wanted to stay out of it and people wouldn’t let me. They tried to force me to support it and so I had to explain my reasons for not liking it. I wouldn’t be considered wrong about it if people had left me alone to not address it.
That’s about it I think. Timing of bellarke kiss and cannibalism. If I think of anything more I’ll come back and add it. If i had theories that haven’t happened yet, they haven’t been proven wrong. If I had theories that I adjusted to fit as I got new information I’m not counting that as wrong I”m counting that as developing. Since the narrative is in progress. If I took some time to think about someone’s theory and changed from disagreeing to agreeing, I’m not counting that as wrong I’m counting that as being convinced, like with timejump (which was a SPOILER not a theory) and jordan being marper’s kid which I didn’t like but had to admit was probably true. I didn’t want them to die.
All right. So you’re right. I’ve been wrong. My bad. Or whatever. I’m allowed. If you put yourself out there you’re going to miss a few shots. It’s part of life.
Now let’s move on to the things I’ve gotten right, which is harder to remember, because a lot of the time I see something before others and then after I explain it, they start agreeing and then it’s considered “obvious.” Despite me getting harassed for being audacious enough to predict it in the first place. I’ve only been making theories since s3 started, so that’s when my spec began. If I had a theory then, and it is still possible to interpret that theory through the story now, I’m going to call that theory correct. Interpretations are subjective, but to be accurate, they should be able to have canon support. So if I didn’t get Jossed by the canon, then they are counted in the right category, even if you don’t agree. So.
Right
Dante’s Inferno. I said it would be the structure of s3. It was. It continued to show Purgatorio and looks like it’s heading to Paradiso. This theory has expanded to where I’m now predicting that the show will move away from tragedy and towards classic comedy, not ha ha comedy, but victory and marriage comedy.
Bellarke is endgame. I made this prediction after 3.05 when I realized they were symbolic of yin/yang, head/heart, knight/queen and must be together for anything to succeed. Not only was it true for s3 when people thought CL was endgame, but it has been true EVERY season and at the end of book 1. This prediction remains true and no matter who else has said they were dead or live, I’ve always maintained it.
Bellarke is the backbone of the story. I used those exact words and JR then used them in the same way about one year later.
Bellarke are soulmates. Someone said CL were soulmates, I said no, then thought about it and, due to the above endgame theories, realized that Bellarke were the soulmates of this story. This was confirmed one year later by JR
Bellarke visual story of Hands. I said that was the symbol of their relationship. S5 had them barely touching and no hand close ups, this shows how they weren’t really together. However, Bellamy was always fidgeting with his hands, as if they needed to hold something. Look for this in s6.
I said that Arkadia was the story of Bellamy facing his darkness, his soul at risk, but that he had to struggle there so that he could become a hero. When everyone else said that Bellamy was the villain, I said, no, this is enabling him to be the hero. And s5 proves that without a doubt.
I said that Polis was NOT the story of Lxa as hero and Clarke as love interest, but it was Clarke’s dark psychological story as she faced her own darkness and made peace with her shadow. I maintained Clarke was the hero. This theory was confirmed by the writers this hiatus.
I said that Arkadia were not colonialists, they were refugees. Listen people, look up the definition. They were refugees.
Near the end of s3 I speculated that the twist for the COL would be that everyone lived. And everyone lived. Except Pike. Who wasn’t in the COL.
Before s4. I had a crazy crack theory that they would use Cryo chambers to escape Praimfaya. There was no evidence for this. And yet. I was right. It took an extra year, and another apocalypse, but I was right.
S4, I said they would use multiple solutions to survive praimfaya. They did. Nightblood, space, AND a bunker.
I said that Octavia was portrayed as a hero, but had the potential to be abusive, but was not a villain yet in s4.
I said that the bunker was doomed with all those grounders in there who just wanted to fight. I mean. Obvious. But I told you so.
I said that they would use B/E as a romantic obstacle and that meant that we would get CANON romantic bellarke as a LOVE TRIANGLE and we did. We didn’t get kiss/confess/sex but we got CANON romantic emotions on both sides and CANON comparisons between B/e and Bellarke which is a CANON LOVE TRIANGLE which is a CANON ROMANCE even though it is not resolved yet. They stopped in the middle of the story that I predicted so I did NOT get that wrong. It’s still happening and I expect to see the rest of it in s6. They’ve set it up. It’s happening.
I said that either Clarke or Octavia would become a mother. I actually got hate for this. People told me I was evil to wish single motherhood on them. (I am a single mother so that’s nice.) I speculated that one would get pregnant, but in the end it was Clarke finding Madi. I was correct. Motherhood is a theme for post apocalyptic fic and I nailed it. Clarke is mama bear.
Oh while we’re at it. I said Clarke and Bellamy played the role of mother and father leaders. Which while not “romantic” in a romance story way, is NOT a platonic relationship. A marriage is non-platonic love. And Clarke was named, in canon, Mama Bear and Bellamy was shown as space dad or whatever. CAPTAIN DADDY. Nomon and nontu, paired leaders, mother and father. That is actively developing.
I said that Octavia would have redemption story that allowed her to be martyred and her death was likely. This was a story they actually played with heavily, and had her down on her knees ready to be martyred when they yoinked her honorable death from her. Which I loved, because it was the cheap way out and now she has to be responsible for her own actions instead of blaming Bellamy. Which is ALSO something I said she needed to do, way back in s3.
I said that Kane would die and I suspected it would be Vinson. He didn’t REALLY die but he almost did and it was Vinson. I usually said Kane or Abby but Kane was way higher on my list. I thought Octavia and Kane were it. I was wrong, but I was also right, because they both almost did. This is tricky, but it happened for both the way I said and they were saved at the last second so I’m counting both.
Exodus theory. I said Bellarke would take their people and leave Eden. I said they would lose the war for Eden and win the war for their souls. Over the course of the season it became clear that they would be taking the space ship and their exodus would be into space.
I actually predicted that the last shot would be Clarke and Bellamy looking out at the two suns planet, together. Or if I didn’t predict that outright, it was in my head and I wrote a bellarke fic with that. It was way bellarkey so like much more romance, but the final image was there.
Oh someone told me that the Happy Ever After end I predicted for Bellarke was actually the ending for Marper. I think that’s when I said that if they got a happy ending they would go off alone and live their lives in obscurity and have a family and just stay out of it. And that it turned out to be Marper instead means that I was right in the themes and story. AND because Marper is paralleled with Bellarke, and they then gave Bellarke their son... it STILL applies symbolically to the story of Bellarke. They cannot, though, have a happy ending unless their story is OVER. So that means Bellarke is still the story, but they HEA ending of Marper is there as a guide for Bellarke, which probably means that their time to be together is coming very soon. Which I’m super excited about. Monty said, be happy like we were. That means... together.... in love.
I mean there’s probably lots more because I get small things right too. And things that people start to agree with me and it seems obvious so I forget that it was my theory or spec. Or enough evidence happens before it happens so it seems obvious. When it comes down to it, I listen to what the story is saying and I try to put the pieces together to see the broader picture. I’m not coming up with theories based on my shipping or opinions. And when it also comes down to it, i can say whatever the hell i want it’s my own damn blog. And I don’t make people come to me. But they still do, even when I’m mad at them. And they still ask me questions. Because they like my answers. And i’m not running a popularity contest. I do not answer questions to please my audience (sorry audience) I answer questions to figure out the show or share my thoughts. And you can NOT say that no one asked me for my opinion because almost all of my posts are answers to questions this fandom has asked me. Even this one. You sent the ask. You solicited my opinion.
So sit back bitch and learn something. btw you’re blocked from my inbox.
#the 100#speculation#in defense of me#i mean i don't want to tell people i told you so when everything i said would happen happens but it happens a lot#sometimes i forget that a thing was my theory or spec because it seems obvious to me#but i'm kinda tired of people telling me i'm always wrong when about 80% of my theories are proved right on some level or another#i mean i'm just GUESSING i don't know what they're going to do anymore than you do but i happen to be pretty good at reading the canon story#with all the spec i make some of it is OF COURSE going to be wrong so what? don't follow me#i can spout all the rotten theory I want to on my blog it's my blog#and anyone who wants to can read it i'm not making them so if my 4k followers still like me that's their choice#mostly i think they like my theories because i back them up with evidence from canon and show them how so they can decide for themselves#which is a whole lot better than sending nasty anons putting someone down#i figure you can't do better yourself and you can't make sense of a show that really isn't that complicated#so you think I'm the one who is dumb despite the fact that I GET the show and you don't know what's happening
