#idgaf what clarke haters think

[thequeenofsastiel]

I'm still so upset that Clarke's ending involves her having to spend the rest of her life without the two people she loves most. Even if you don't subscribe to Bellarke being romantic, the truth is that Bellamy was the second most important person to her. I know the ending of the show seemed sweet and all, with Clarke’s friends choosing to come be with her, but all I can think about is the fact that she's going to have to live with the knowledge that she killed the person who she loved almost more than anyone else to save the person she loved most, only to lose that person too. That's such a terrible thing to have to live with, and I hate that for her more than I can possibly say. The worst part is that it was so so unnecessary. Madi could have chosen to come back like the rest of Clarke's people, considering the fact that those who had been on the brink of death came back without their injuries (including Emori, despite the fact that her body had actually died, tf?). So why didn't she? As far as I can tell, the only reason is to make Clarke miserable. And don't say it's because The 100 is "realistic" or whatever, because Mackson, Memori, and Levitavia all got their happy endings. So why didn't Clarke, who spent the entire show protecting and sacrificing for others, get hers? It's just such fucking garbage.

I hate how the awfulness of season seven keeps hitting me in waves. I've spent the last year so excited about the end of this show, and jroth just ruined it.

Clarke haters don't interact.

EDIT: Anti Clarke comments will be deleted.

(warning for mentions of suicidal ideation)

still haven’t watched the ep (tho I might give in this weekend; I’m trying to avoid spoilers and actual gifsets, but it sounds kind of fun), but err. I’ve seen Things in my dash, and I needed to get something off my chest.

at this point, anyone who follows me knows I don’t like Clarke, that I actually used to hate her, and that I haven’t given her a generous thought in 5+ seasons. I actively enjoy it when the narrative messes with her ffs.

but I’ve seen a few posts, in light of the last episode, that keep bothering me. putting aside the fact that I think it’s ridiculous to feel indignant because she doesn’t want to die quietly while someone else takes over her body (like, what did you expect? I’ve been rooting for her to lose since day one because that’s what would narratively benefit my faves, but c’mon)--

I wish you thought of how statements like “Clarke should just let herself die to make things easier for other people!” might sound to people who struggle with suicidal thoughts. because you massively triggered mine, js.

like. this isn’t really about Clarke or her feelings, because she’s not real and idgaf, tbh (tho man, do I resent it when fandom makes me feel like I need to “defend” things and characters and story-lines I don’t even like myself ugh). and I’ve probably failed at this at some point, no doubt, so I’m not in a position to preach about it (like, I regularly wish death --tho I usually prefer other kinds of ruin, bc it’s funnier-- upon characters here on tumblr dot com, and to anyone following me and liking them it must feel bad).

but we really need to think about how certain statements sound to the real people actually reading them. and just. suicide (and self-harm in general) is a very delicate topic, a lot more than mere death, characters getting murdered etc. --even sacrifice in the middle of the action feels different IMO. it can be triggering AF (proof right here with me) to hear about it, specially in such a flippant way. so, idk. maybe include some kind of warning, when you talk about this story-line like that? I know I’d appreciate it, so I’m guessing other people out there, including potential Clarke haters that might seek out your posts, could feel the same.
