#bellamy blake rant

[thequietesthing]

yesterday 19/03 has been 10 years since The 100 came out… and i’m like how?? i’m feeling old and at the same time grateful for these 10 years of absolute crazy plot twist, never ending bellarke baiting, beautiful relationships and imaginative ways to destroy each and every world the characters set foot in

[as-inevitable-as-morning]

It’s been two years. Still bitter about The 100 ending. Still convinced that Bellarke should have been endgame. Still shocked that TV writers were stupid enough to think that doing something for shock value was more important than giving a satisfying ending to something that had been happening for 7 years.

Oh, and also- happy Thursday.

rant for 1x09 cause I gotta but under cut since I’m sure I’ll get hate

I really don’t get the O.ctavia and F/inn point here especially at the end of the episode. Yes, Jasper shot first but he didn’t make up the grounders in the trees-they were there and let’s not mention the fact that A/nya arrived with TWO armed soldiers at her side and all L/incoln said was “I was told there’d be no weapons” but surprise surprise there were! 

And Clarke was right to bring Bellamy along and keep an eye on them since she was sure the grounders wouldn’t keep up with any promises L/incoln or F/inn tried to make and she was right. A/nya’s whole angry speech is another aspect I don’t get-yes, the 100 are invaders in a way but come on, you and L.incoln specifically, observed them for ages (if he knew he wanted Clarke to come along as the leader, let’s be real and let’s kinda ignore the fact that the whole relationship with O is a bit...well...I can dissect that but I won’t right now); 

The point is they saw those were just children who knew nothing about the ground, had no weapons and fought against each other from day one. Those weren’t soldiers who went out there to seek land and kill the grounders-those were kids. A/nya’s other point-the falres? Sure, that probably caused fires but it was unintentional. Meanwhile what happened to them-they crossed Jasper on a tree and impaled him, killed and hunted a bunch of the others without any mercy and without stopping to think about asking what they’re doing here and what they do know about the ground (which is nothing); Her other point-capturing L.incoln and torturing him, yes, that’ IS bad, no one is denying that but that happened only after they hurt Jasper on day 1 of them coming down and killing 10 more delinquents and him stabbing F/inn. Let’s be real here, L/incoln isn’t some sort of helper to the 100 at first at all, he just observed them for a while and fell in love (weirdly) in O/ctavia which is why he blew the horn and saved her when he found her fallen. Does he want to change that later? Sure, he doesn’t think what they’re doing is right and he gets in conflict with his people but at first he was sent to scout, observe and possibly kill. 

So none of A/nya’s points on that brdige make sense. They knew those kids weren’t invaders-they observed them and saw them for what they were-children, with no way of fighting (like the grounder children did if we are to think like them and know about the conclave) or any way to support themselves. They are just barely surviving. Yet you went there and killed them. THOSE are acts of war. Yes, what Clarke, Bellamy and the others did wasn’t good either-capturing L/incoln and torturing him but they would’ve done and they did the same to them if we look at Murphy and what happened to him. 

The fight at the end of the episode between F/inn and O/ctavia on one side and Clarke, Bellamy, Jasper and Raven on the other is just...plain stupid for me. Yes, F/inn can want peace but he’s delusional if he thinks he’ll get it that way and O/ctavia if we’re going to be real is the one who acts out most as a teenager out of them all. I like this grounder and I’m gonna be with him for the sole reason that it will piss my brother off and that he is something different and adventerous that I want. She acts like none of the 100 ever got killed or hurt by them. Suddenly it’s all rainbows and unicorns and everyone else is wrong.

I’m not saying war and guns is the way but in this particular case Clarke and Bellamy were right and acted smart and in accordance to everything they knew about earth so far. The narrative blames them though just like it does later on many occassions.

my last post because I just watched a video from 716 but after this post I won't rant anymore about the 100 except in the tags lol here's the thing, it's not even just bellarke wasn't endgame or that they never even kissed or said ily though those things I'll always be mad about but if they weren't going to have them end up together they should've just left him dead in the beginning of s7 then bellarke wouldn't of been tainted and trust me I still adore them completely they'll always be otp but then bringing him back just to kill him and how they did it angered me and always will ugh no they brought him back making us think she'd save him just like he did in s6 but no they had her kill him and I think they did that to say a final f u to bellarke shippers because why else do it it literally made no sense, clarke could've NEVER killed bellamy and anyone believing she could even to save madi watched a different show!! she couldn't kill him to save the human race and never could've killed him to save madi idc!! sorry but s7 doesn't exist, it made absolutely no sense, all the characters were ooc and it was boring af!! them not even grieving for him let alone trying to save him was ooc and never would've happened so s7 is not the 100 I know or love it's a completely different show, a terrible season and was unnecessary!! the show ended at 613 end of the story!!

[bellamysgriffin]

decided to open my inbox up for bellarke one-shot/fic requests since i’m in a rut right now. keep in mind i wrote mostly canon verse and angst, and while im definitely super open to AUs (i have written like a couple in the past) i would recommend finding someone else if ur looking for fluff 💕

[bladegirldiedthencamebacktolife]

why the 100 why (spoilers ^_^)

I love the 100 even with the cringy one-liners and happily ever after ending. It was cheesy but at least all the characters I liked just... live now? EVERYONE BUT, Bellamy. Seeing his character change so much and go thru so many things, just to get shot in the end that easy. LIKE? Okay I get characters change, they view things different now, he's a whole 'nother man! But it just felt like they plucked a good character out and said, HEY! we need more conflict. LETS RUIN EVERYTHING WE BUILT UP FOR HIM. Maybe it's more of a selfish view that I wanted EVERYONE to just get to the end and be the same characters I loved. And it makes sense that a character would have views like Bellamy does after what he went thru. BUT WHY HIM. Watching it was like, LOL! OKAY! He's goin alil crazy with it. But he stills the man I love he'll pull thru! ... THEN HE BETRAYS THE SQAUD. Watching a character that tight knit to their friends who were basically their family, crash and burn then die over a sketchbook was not what I was expecting lets say! I did enjoy seeing everyone bond over his death and losing his soul to bill T_T. It really brang them together. I just wish I got to see Bellamy be someone fighting for his friends and with them in the last season. His (old) personality would really have brang it all together. REST IN PIECES...

"This is Raven Reyes calling Ark Station!"

Clarke tore her eyes away from Wells' unconscious body at the sound of Gabriella and Raven speaking into the radio, trying to reach The Ark. They needed to contact Abby Griffin because she was the only one with enough medical skills to save Wells' life.

Gabriella took the radio from Raven's hands. "Come in, Ark Station. This is Gabriella Kane and Raven Reyes, calling Ark Station."

The mechanic and engineer had been doing this for the past hour while the dropship was getting more crowded with noisy teenagers by the second. And the sound of the storm - which was probably tearing the entire camp to pieces - outside the dropship didn't make them feel less pressured.

"Please, come in." Gabriella repeated, her frustration clear by the hint of aggression in her voice.

"'You sure you have the right frequency?" Finn decided to ask, peering over his girlfriend's shoulder to look down at the mess of strings.

"Maybe we would work faster if you weren't hovering over us like a stalker for the past hour." Gabriella snapped, clenching her jaw in annoyance.

"Finn, just..." Raven sighed, her anger towards her boyfriend being out of more than one reason "just go check if Clarke's okay." She turned to Gabriella. "If anyone can do this it's us right?" Raven encouraged, nudging her elbow with her own, the gesture making the engineer calm down slightly.

"Yeah, it's just...as much as I hate Wells, we can't let him die because if he does, Clarke going to go bat-shit crazy which means I will probably lose my shit too, and that only leaves Bellamy to lead us." The blonde ranted, scratching the side of her face with a heavy sigh. "And we all know that would be a total disaster."

"Then we won't let him die."

Gabriella did not have the chance to answer because Clarke's annoyed voice echoed through the bottom floor of the dropship, hinting that Finn was not doing a very good job of checking up on her. "You're not helping, Finn! You're doing the opposite!"

Clarke stormed past him and went straight back to Wells' body which was laid on a table next to Raven and Gabriella. His chest was completely bare and only covered in some dirt and blood. His shirt has been cut open and used to wrap around the knife that was stabbed into the side of his stomach to keep it in place and to keep him from bleeding any further. Clarke removed the torn short from around the knife and gulped nervously.

The female engineer stared at the two for a second longer before speaking again, "Ark Station, come in. We're on the ground. The hundred are alive and we need you. Calling Ark Station. Is anyone there? Please come in. The hundred are alive. Can anyone hear me?"

Gabriella put her head in her hands when a voice finally spoke through the radio "𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘪𝘴 𝘢 𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘯𝘦𝘭. 𝘞𝘩𝘰 𝘪𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴? 𝘗𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘦 𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘧𝘺 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘧."

A chuckle of disbelief left both Raven and Gabriella as the former brought the radio to her mouth. "This is Raven Reyes. I'm from Mecha Station. We're transmitting from the ground. The hundred are alive."

Raven passed the radio over to the girl next to her so she could take over "You need to get Dr. Abby Griffin. Wells Jaha has been severely injured and he needs medical help. This is Gabriella Kane, we need Abby Griffin. Now."

"𝘏𝘢𝘯𝘨 𝘰𝘯, 𝘎𝘢𝘣𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘢. 𝘞𝘦'𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘳𝘺𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘰𝘰𝘴𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘴𝘪𝘨𝘯𝘢𝘭."

Clarke came up behind the two girls and squeezed their shoulders, cracking a smile despite her anxiousness. "You did it."

"𝘙𝘢𝘷𝘦𝘯? 𝘈𝘳𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦?"

The smile fell from Clarke's face in an instant at the sound of her mother's voice and she slowly took a step closer, "Mom? Mom it's me."

"𝘊𝘭𝘢𝘳𝘬𝘦?" Abby asked hesitantly, her voice thick with emotion but none of them had time for emotional reunions or fighting right now.

"Mom, I need your help." Clarke said, "Wells has been stabbed by a grounder."

"𝘊𝘭𝘢𝘳𝘬𝘦?" Came the voice that belonged to Chancellor Jaha. "𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘪𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘊𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘰𝘳. 𝘈𝘳𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘢𝘺𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘴𝘶𝘳𝘷𝘪𝘷𝘰𝘳𝘴 𝘰𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘨𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥?"

"Yes. The Earth is survivable. We're not alone." The youngest Griffin announced without hesitation. When no response came, she spoke again, this time allowing her sadness to show in her voice as she pleaded, "Mom, he's dying. The knife is still in his chest."

"𝘊𝘭𝘢𝘳𝘬𝘦? 𝘐𝘴 𝘮𝘺 𝘥𝘢𝘶𝘨𝘩𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘺𝘰𝘶?"

Gabriella felt her body stiffen at the sound of Marcus Kane's voice. She really thought she would never even hear his voice again. She felt Raven squeeze her knee in comfort and swallowed her nerves down before responding to him herself, "I'm here, Kane."

It has been a while since she actually called him dad since he stopped acting like it a long time ago. By that point, it did not even feel unnatural to call him by their shared last name like everyone else did.

There was an uncomfortable silence filling the dropship until Abby spoke again, "𝘊𝘭𝘢𝘳𝘬𝘦, 𝘐'𝘮 𝘨𝘰𝘯𝘯𝘢 𝘵𝘢𝘭𝘬 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘵𝘩𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩 𝘪𝘵 𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘱 𝘣𝘺 𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘱."

The entire dropship shook as another crash of thunder was heard outside. Gabriella was about to yell at someone to close the doors but realized some people probably were not inside yet.

"𝘊𝘭𝘢𝘳𝘬𝘦, 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘧𝘪𝘷𝘦-- 𝘵𝘰 𝘮𝘦𝘥𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭. 𝘔𝘦𝘥𝘪𝘤--"

"Ella? Raven? What's wrong?" Clarke asked them. Gabriella noticed the terrified look in Clarke's eyes and allowed Raven to take over adjusting the frequency and got over to stand in front of her best friend. "It's not the radio. It's the storm. But you need to stay calm, you're overthinking things and starting to panic. Wells is gonna be fine."

"How can you know that?" Clarke asked with a tear rolling down her cheek.

Gabriella squeezed her shoulders, "Because you're our only option. And you're Clarke Griffin, you can do anything you want to as long as you focus and stop overthinking everything."

"Thanks, El." Clarke sighed softly, her shoulders relaxing.

"I got it!" Octavia announced barging into the dropship, making both blondes turn around.

Gabriella furrowed her eyebrows, "Got what?"

The Blake sister handed her a bottle and grinned sheepishly when she winced at the smell of the liquid inside. "Monty's moonshine. Pretty sure no germ can survive it."

Chuckling, Gabriella gave the bottle to Clarke and pulled Octavia in a short hug, "I'm glad you're okay."

"Me too." Octavia smiled, pulling away from the hug to give Clarke a nod of hello.

The moment was interrupted by the dropship shaking again and the three girls shared a worried look, Clarke being the one to speak up, "The storm's getting worse. Monroe, close the doors."

"We still have people out there." A red-headed girl told the present leaders.

"Monty and Jasper still aren't back yet. Neither are Finn and Bellamy." Octavia cleared up, knowing that bringing up the two boys would make Gabriella give in.

"I knew it was getting way too quiet in here." Gabriella muttered, scolding herself for not realizing they ran off doing god knows what.

"It's alright." Clarke brushed it off. "They'll find somewhere to ride it out."

"No, we can't just--"

The sound of Raven's voice made Gabriella stop talking and turn to her with a questioning look. The mechanic held a needle towards Clarke. "One suture needle."

"Right. But I still need something to close the wound."

"There's a wire on the second level. I used it for the tents." Octavia suggested, looking at Clarke.

The blonde nodded, "Let's see it."

"Stay away from the blue wires that run through the ceiling. I rigged it to the solar cells on the roof." Raven warned the raven-haired girl.

She was ignored so Gabriella called out, "That means they're hot, Tavi!" Once Octavia was out of sight, Gabriella turned towards Clarke and said, "Remember what I said? Stay focused--"

"-- and don't overthink it, I know." Clarke finished her sentence herself, trying to calm down.

"Hey, they're back!"

The teenager's yell made all eyes move to the door of the dropship. Gabriella's eyes widened in horror when her eyes fell on the grounder who Bellamy and the rest of the guys were pulling inside.

"Bellamy, what the fuck?" Gabriella exclaimed, her eyes flickering between him and the grounder.

A bloody, beaten-up grounder.

"What the hell are you doing?" Octavia spat, glaring up at her older brother.

"It's time to get some answers." Bellamy answered bluntly and motioned for some of the boys to carry the grounder upstairs.

To say that Octavia was not impressed with Bellamy's rash decision would be an understatement. "Oh, you mean revenge?"

"I mean intel." Bellamy said sternly, giving her a dismissive glare.

"Bellamy she's right." Gabriella chimed in and grabbed his forearm. His intense brown eyes met her pleading blue ones. He held her gaze as she tried to keep him from throwing away the last bit of humanity he had. "This isn't how we do things. Not down here."

"It is now."

-

"I can't tell how deep it goes." Clarke told her mother, who was helping her take the knife out of Wells step by step. Her hands were trembling by the pressure she was under but she sounded confident and almost unfazed.

"𝘛𝘩𝘢𝘵'𝘴 𝘢𝘭𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵. 𝘑𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘥𝘰𝘯'𝘵 𝘳𝘦𝘮𝘰𝘷𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘬𝘯𝘪𝘧𝘦 𝘺𝘦𝘵."

Clarke nodded to herself and sterilized her hands with moonshine again before passing it over to Gabriella for her to do the same. After rubbing it all over her hands, Gabriella drank some straight from the bottle in the hope it would distract her from what was going on on the second level.

(Probably torture, lots and lots of torture.)

"𝘊𝘢𝘯 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘦𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘺 𝘧𝘭𝘶𝘪𝘥?" Abby asked after a few seconds.

"Hey! Watch it!" One of the delinquents exclaimed, pushing someone back.

"Clear the room." Clarke instructed desperately, keeping her eyes locked on Wells.

"Everyone! Get on the third level, now!"

The delinquents followed Gabriella's orders and started climbing one by one.

Clarke put her palm on Wells' forehead. Her eyebrows furrowed, worry crossing her face as she informed her mother, "He feels a little warm."

"𝘖𝘬𝘢𝘺, 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵'𝘴 𝘢𝘭𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵." Abby assured her daughter. "𝘍𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘤𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘱𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘶𝘮𝘢. 𝘊𝘭𝘢𝘳𝘬𝘦, 𝘐 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘭 𝘮𝘦 𝘪𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘪𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘺 𝘧𝘭𝘶𝘪𝘥 𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥."

Gabriella huffed slightly, feeling slightly useless about this entire situation now that the radio was working. She turned to Raven and whispered, "I'll be upstairs. Call me if you need anything." Reaching the door of the second level, she knocked on it impatiently. "It's Ella! Open the door."

The door opened and she came face to face with Nate Miller who stared at her skeptically. He thought about which leader to side with but obviously chose Bellamy who was a lot angrier at the moment - even though Gabriella could easily give him a run for the money - so he stood his ground.

"Let her through." Gabriella heard Bellamy order the boy in front of her and watched as he moved to let her climb up.

Gabriella clenched her jaw in annoyance at the sight of the grounder chained like a wild animal. Noticing the furious look on her face, Bellamy mentally flinched and faced the couple of delinquents who were still present with an authoritative look on his face. As always, he radiated confidence and demanded nothing but respect. That was the thing that scared the shit out of Gabriella but also something she respected. "Give us a minute."

Not daring to test the patience of either one of the leaders, they quickly did as they were told. Gabriella was surprised to see Finn following them down. She watched him avoid her gaze and raised her eyebrows. He was ashamed? Good.

Bellamy's facade dropped the second they were left alone with the unconscious grounder. "Listen, Gabi. I get that you're angry, but--"

Gabriella cut him off with a scoff of disbelief. "Angry? You haven't seen angry, Bellamy. What the hell is wrong with you? We are trying to stop a war, not start one!"

"This grounder kidnapped Octavia, my little sister, and your friend." He quickly defended himself, trying to guilt-trip her by bringing Octavia into the argument.

"Maybe you would have known what actually happened if you didn't kick her out of here!"

"How many more of our people need to die until you realize we're fighting a war? He and his people killed three of our people out there and almost killed Wells. So, I'm sorry if I'm not exactly listening to the advice of my sixteen-year-old sister and a girl who fell in love with a murdering psychopath." Bellamy hissed before he even had the chance to think about what he was saying.

Gabriella blinked in shock at the harsh words and Bellamy instantly felt guilty about bringing Murphy up. The boy was obviously still a sore subject for her and Bellamy was the one who basically signed his death sentence so he was just digging himself a bigger hole.

"Right." Gabriella growled lowly, "Have fun torturing a human being and becoming an even bigger monster, Mr. Fugitive."

-

Clarke handed Gabriella the knife once she managed to get it out of Wells' stomach, so she could stitch the still fresh wound up and it wouldn't get infected. Grabbing more of Monty's moonshine, Gabriella poured it onto a spare shirt, about to clean the knife but as she took the knife back into her hands, it slipped and made her accidentally cut the side of her wrist.

"Son of a bitch." The blonde hissed to herself and dropped the knife back on the table so she could stop the bleeding with the same shirt already in her hands.

"You okay?" Raven asked, looking up, hearing the silent hiss of pain that left the engineer next to her. Her brown eyes were wide and cautious. She was on Earth for less than forty-eight hours and she was still wary of everything.

"Fine. Just a cut." Gabriella brushed it off and placed the shirt back onto the table next to Wells.

"I'm done." Clarke announced, her words mainly directed towards her mom on the other side of the radio.

"𝘎𝘰𝘰𝘥. 𝘋𝘰 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘺𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘰 𝘤𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥?"

Clarke shook her head. "We'll make do. Like always."

Gabriella, who was now holding a cold and wet shirt on Wells' forehead, touched the side of his head for a second, furrowing her eyebrows at the high temperature of his skin. "Is he supposed to be this warm?"

"𝘏𝘦 𝘭𝘰𝘴𝘵 𝘢 𝘭𝘰𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘣𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘥, 𝘎𝘢𝘣𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘢." Abby told her. "𝘐'𝘮 𝘴𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘩𝘦'𝘭𝘭 𝘣𝘦 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘦."

Clarke put her bloodied hand on top of Wells' chest and her eyes widened. "Wait, Mom, she's right. He's feverish, and his breathing is uneven."

"𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘨𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘩𝘪𝘮 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳. 𝘓𝘦𝘵 𝘮𝘦 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘪𝘧 𝘩𝘦 𝘨𝘦𝘵𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘺 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘴𝘦, 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘐 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬-- 𝘐 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬 𝘩𝘦 𝘮𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘣𝘦 𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘰𝘰𝘥𝘴."

"Well down here, there's nothing but woods." Clarke said bitterly, rubbing the sweat off her forehead.

"Yeah, no shit." Gabriella muttered in agreement. She sat down on one of the dropship seats, feeling slightly lightheaded, and put her sweaty face in her hands.

Clarke dropped the towel she used to clean her blood-stained hands and got up, "I need a break."

"Clarke?" Abby called over the radio, "Clarke, wait. Girls...could you give us a few minutes?"

"Sure." Raven said immediately but Clarke shook her head.

"No. You two stay with Wells. I'll go see what the hell they're doing up there." She turned to Gabriella with a pleading expression. "You coming, El?"

The Kane shook her head, not looking up from the bottle of moonshine on the table - too busy trying to realize why her sight was getting blurry and her vision unfocused - when she responded. "Yeah, you do that. I'll stay with Raven and keep an eye on Charming."

"Right." Clarke hesitantly nodded, not knowing where her best friend's sudden tiredness came from. It must be the lack of sleep, she thought and turned around to go upstairs.

-

"Rae..." Gabriella choked out after the two girls spent at least ten minutes by Wells' side while Clarke was checking up on Bellamy and the grounder.

Raven's eyes glazed over in concern once they landed on Gabriella's weak and sweaty form. She quickly got to her feet and rushed by her side to scrunch down in front of the weak blonde. "Ella, oh my-- "

"Get Clarke." Gabriella pleaded, "Please, I need Clarke."

She felt her eyes start to close and desperately tried to keep them open but the amount of heat her body radiated made it impossible for her to breathe correctly either. Just for a second. Raven watched the blonde close her eyes with a mix of panic and shock but the emotions did not keep her frozen. She jumped towards her and yelled, "Clarke! Clarke! Something's wrong with Ella!"

Gabriella did not even register the voices trying to get her to stay awake when everything went black.

-

The first time Gabriella woke up it was to the sound of Raven yelling. She might have heard the voices of Monty and Jasper in the background too but she was not sure.

"Clarke, she's getting worse! Please!"

The second time it was definitely Jasper yelling.

"He stopped breathing!"

The third time it was Raven again.

"Faster! She's seizing! What's taking so long?"

-

The fourth - and the last time - she woke up, it was with her head in someone's lap while a gentle hand stroked her hair. She fluttered her eyes open to see Octavia Blake staring at her with a concerned expression.

"Hey." The youngest Blake grinned when she saw the blonde's eyes open, "How are you feeling?"

"Like I died and then came back to life." Gabriella admitted with a small sheepish smile, "What the hell even happened?"

"According to Raven..." Octavia started, helping Gabriella sit up. "You cut your wrist with the same knife that Wells was stabbed with and the knife was poisoned."

"What kind of poison?" Gabriella asked, "It was obviously not that strong since I'm obviously alive."

"I don't know but you would have died if the grounder didn't give us the antidote."Tthe raven-haired girl admitted, flinching as the memories of her brother torturing the grounder to find in which bottle the antidote was.

"Really? He did that willingly?" Gabriella raised an eyebrow.

"No." Octavia shook her head. "But Bellamy started torturing him when he didn't give him an answer."

"Seriously?" The blonde exclaimed, her blue eyes widening in disbelief, "What? Are we animals now?"

"No, we're survivors." The familiar male voice made both girls roll their eyes and they turned to the dropship door to see Bellamy standing there with an unreadable expression on his face.

"What do you want?" Gabriella spat out while she glared at him.

Her question was ignored as the freckled male turned to his sister and said, "Leave us alone for a moment, O."

"No." Both Octavia and Gabriella said at the same time, making Bellamy sigh in annoyance.

He looked between them, before setting his eyes on his sister, "Now, Octavia."

The Blake sister glared at her brother as she got up before exiting the ship, her way of walking representing an annoyed toddler.

"What do you want?" Gabriella asked, getting to her feet and crossing her arms over her chest.

"Listen, Bambi. I'm not gonna apologize for saving your life."

"Good." Gabriella smiled sarcastically. "Not like I'd accept the apology anyway. Besides, that isn't the only stupid thing you did in the last forty-eight hours."

Bellamy looked around the dropship as if he was searching for what to say before he licked his lips and locked his brown eyes back with her blue ones. "Who we are and who we need to be to survive are very different things."

"I'll keep that in mind for the next time you mess up."

[headstrongblake]

the first few days felt crucial to stay with grant. no matter what had happened between the two of them recently, she would never wish him dead. she couldn't. hunter had shown her which wounds were important to watch, and how to help change the dressing because at the time...grant had barely been conscious. but once it felt safe to leave grant alone in his apartment, octavia retreated back to hers in desperate need of new clothes and some essentials. she waited until the middle of the day, hoping bellamy was anywhere but their apartment however, as she walked the lengthy hallway...she forgot to account for nick. bellamy too loud in her mind as he continued to blow up her phone.

emerald hues locked with nick's as he came out of the apartment just down from hers, teeth tugging at her bottom lip, waiting for his reaction. he looked like hell. like he's spent the past few days wallowing in all the dark emotions that gloss his gaze.

after sunday night, octavia's one of the last people nicklas wants to see. not the last...but she's pretty fuckin' close. so when he notices her just by her apartment, no doubt trying to sneak in while blake is not there, half of him screams to turn right around. go back inside. let her do her thing and not engage because despite what she's done, she's still the little kid he's taken care of. but he's been listening less and less to that side lately. instead, nicklas shakes his head, heading down the hallway, but paying octavia no attention.

as nicklas comes near her, all octavia can smell is whiskey. whiskey and stale cigarettes that make her head swim. he doesn't look at her. doesn't speak to her. he doesn't even acknowledge that she's there, sparking annoyance in her gaze. how dare he be mad at her. she is not the one who did anything wrong. if anything, she's the only one, save hunter, out of those men that did anything right. but when he goes to walk past her, octavia's hand darts out to stop him. " what? you're just going to pretend i don't exist? "

every muscle in nick's body tenses as octavia wraps her hand around his arm, but he makes no attempt to pull from her. his head shakes, eyes still forward. " yeah, i'm tryin', wanna help me out with that? " he asked dryly, his free hand plucking her fingers off his jacket before he readjusted himself.

" so it's like that? " she asked, head tilting with an exasperated look on her face. blue eyes snapped toward her, glaring down at her. " yeah, it's like that, octavia. " nick said harshly.

" let me get this straight, you abandon your brother, no, sorry you beat the living hell out of him, let my brother nearly kill him, your supposed friend....i save him from dying so that you don't spend the rest of your life with his blood on your hands and what? that hurt your feelings? pissed you off a bit, made you feel bad about yourself and so you're done with me? " octavia scoffed, shoving her key in the lock before throwing open the door. " screw you, nick. " she tossed over her shoulder.

each response sits on the tip of his tongue, waiting to strike as she tries to cut him with every word she spits. it's only the comment about grant being his brother that he sinks his teeth into. unwilling now to leave the conversation be as he followed into the blake apartment right on her heels. " that's your problem right there! you just say shit without having a fucking clue what you're talking about. just act when no one asks you to. how about you stop tryin' to fix everybody else's shit and you start fixing yours? the trainwreck is going to sit here and judge me? you don't know shit about me and him. " nicklas ranted, following her every step of the way while she refused to stop moving, and packing, irritating him further.

" oh please, " octavia laughed stiffly, " don't, don't try and tell me i don't see what i see. " octavia said, shoving more clothes into a bag of hers. nick could lie to a lot of people. he did as far as she was aware, and much like grant, he didn't talk about his life before this place. but while nick might have constantly been watching them all while he served drinks behind the comfort of his bar, octavia was watching him. had been since he swooped in like some hero out of one of bell's books. he might've got on her nerves and pushed all the worst trigger points but...it was only because she had missed her own brother so deeply. she's been watching him with hopeful eyes since he became her brother.

green eyes watched nicklas try to deny it, could see the anger and hurt that warred with each other in his eyes before octavia bent down, looking for something beneath her bed. " what're you doing? " nick asked, head shaking as he watched her.

as octavia stood up and turned towards nicklas, she held up a sketchbook from the dollar store, " lie to me all you want, lie to yourself, but i know you care about him. you care about all of us. " she said, opening the book wide as she set it on her bed. inside were dozens of photos in different media. some printed photos, some polaroids. octavia had meant to get a proper album for them all. to sort through them properly instead of having a few sketchbooks beneath her bed but, it worked. she flipped through a few pages until finally she came across the one she was searching for. her finger pointed to the photo of grant and nicklas' side profiles. grant sitting at the bar top while nicklas was in mid-pour of a drink. it's simple. ordinary. but they both have genuine smiles and when octavia looks at the photo, she can hear nick's laugh.

nicklas reached forward to take the book from her but instead she laid it out on her bed, his mouth snapping shut. eyes widened as octavia flipped through the book, feet slowly taking steps forward as he peered over her shoulder. her life was inside this book. everyone. sure, he knew that she was always snapping photos but this...he squinted to look at them as they passed quickly. although, his mouth instantly ran dry as she pointed out the photo of him and grant. instead of arguments, and rebuttals, nicklas fell quiet, studying the photo.

" you may hate him right now...but, " octavia shrugged as she pulled her backpack on, leaving the sketchbook exposed on the bed. " you know what they say about that, such a thin line between love and hate, " she said, staring at the way nicklas moved towards the album, finger reaching out to trace the image. if anyone understood that, especially with grant, it was her. nicklas couldn't lie to her, because she knew what that look in his eye meant. he loved grant, so much that the love itself and all the choices grant makes hurt. " you all are wrong. now fix it. " with that, octavia left nicklas alone in her room.

Piece of Me by StoicLastStand (Rated T) [Marvel’s Hawkeye — Kate Bishop]

Summary: Kate is having a day. She'd really like to return it. Failing that she'd really like to have her memories and her bow. Or at least not be hunted by whatever keeps killing everyone.

the ghost of a broken heart don't stay six feet down by LiveLaughLoveLarry (Rated T) [Percy Jackson and the Olympians — Nico/Will]

Summary: Nico wonders (not for the first time) why the hell he agreed when Bianca suggested they hold a séance in the barn. She's the one who likes spooky stuff, not him.

But what he does like is a certain tall, blond, tanned individual who lives on the next farm over, who’s been coming over to play with them for as long as Nico can remember, who taught them about wild foods and archery and never complains when Nico goes on rambling rant-spirals about old unsolved mysteries.

So unfortunately, he knows exactly why he agreed to this. Because unfortunately, Bianca knows exactly what to say to get him to agree to pretty much anything: “Will is coming, are you?”

Dead Before the Day is Done by she_who_the_river_could_not_hold (Rated T) [The 100 — Bellamy/Clarke]

Summary: Clarke Griffin came back to life shrieking and choking on acrid-tasting dirt that was lodged in her throat.

––and with that, a night of revenge begins.

Mysterious deaths and arranged marriages cloak the village of Arkadia, but Wells Jaha won’t let it continue if he has anything to say about it. So with the help of Bellamy Blake, he brings his best friend back to life under a full moon. No one knew what happened to Clarke on her wedding night that led to her death, but now she’s hell-bent on making sure everyone knows exactly what happened to her. And stopping the person that put her in her grave.

Somebody help me out here and explain to me why ideas pop inside my head, so I try and write a full-on book for it. But then when I go to write it, I can only come up with four or five parts, meaning I should have just written some ideas as a mini series. Because now I am having writer's block 😭😢😢😢 What should I do about this???

Here are the books I am struggling with most that might be removed from my writing lists

Always Had Something For Cowboys ( Kayce Dutton Yellowstone / big sky crossover )

The Last Velaryon ( Jaime Lannister x reader x Robb Stark )

P. S. This all started when I wanted to write for Spencer Reid a few days ago and now I want to try my hand at a better Bellamy Blake book tonight....rant over now. I apologize 😊

The dragon and her knight ch10

"Shit,I swear Josephine is dead." Nova said yanking her chained arms.

"Calm down,dont hurt yourself,we'll figure it out." Bellamy stated,raising his chained arm and stroking her cheek.

"I would kiss you but I have to puke." She said grabbing the bucket her mother threw at her.

Bellamy held as much of her hair back as she could.

"Knowing Josephine,she migt offer immortality for information,and she'll see Echo as a threat." Nova said resting her head on Bellamy's shoulder.

"The questioned is who would take the offer." Bellamy murmured.

-------

"Uh! let me go!" the two heard John Murphy yell from the otherside of the door.

"What do you think he did?" Nova said with a raised brow.

"It's Murphy,what didn't he do." Bellamy said as the door opened.

"What the hell are you doing?!" Murphy grunted out as he was pushed to the floor.

"Let me out!" he exclaimed slamming on the door.

"Your giving me headache." Nova said rubbing her forhead.

"Murphy." Bellamy said.

"Bellamy,Nova,heh,oh you two figured it out huh?" Murphy said to the couple.

"I bet that I can make somthing to cut this strap." He continued,walking over.

"Already tried,didn't work." Nova stated,Murphy let out a grunt.

"Who else knows?" Bellamy questioned grabbing Nova's hand in his.

"Nobody yet,just us,tried to offer me a deal." Murphy told the two.

"What deal?,because I assure you nothing good will come out of it." Nova said as Murphy started to cut at his straps.

She noticed he wasn't chained to the floor like them,glanicing at Bellamy,who already realized somthing.

"We agree not to retaliate,they help us build our compound,hell if your lucky you get to marry Nova,raise baby blake." Murphy explained.

"And what did you say?" Bellamy questioned.

"What do you think I said? " Murphy said.

"It's Clarkeshe might not have been my favorite of late,she's still one of ours." he continued.

"She cared about you Murphy." Bellamy said,Nova noticed his eyes watering,so she gave his hand a comforting squeeze which he returned.

"I know it may not have seemed like it but she did,she cared about all of us,and she would never let us die here." Bellamy stated.

Nova felt her legs started to cramp,so she put her legs down from her chest and hoped it was quick.

"You saying we should take the deal?" Murphy questioned.

"No,No,You were right,we dont need them to help us build our own compound,we kill them all and we take theirs." Bellamy said as Nova nodded.

"Nova you okay with this?" Murphy questioned.

"My family have been alive for centuries its time they get put down." Nova answered.

"Where's Blodreina when you need her?" Murphy questioned.

--------

With Raven and Emori....

"Channel the radiation through a spatial light  modulater with a calculated phase variation." Ryker explained to the girls.

"Look you heard some things about me from Nova,and I get it I screwed up,but your glaring really isn't helping." he continued.

"And it follows a curved trajectory in free space,cool,got it." Raven said as emori rolled her eyes ignoring the mans statement.

"We jury-rig the security Pylons eligus used for the prisoners to handle the radiation." Raven continued.

"We provide the reactor fuel." Ryker said.

"Yeah, out of the goodness of your own hearts , im sure." Raven said,as emori looked at the map,then glanced at her.

"Did I miss somthing?" Ryker questioned.

"No I did." Raven answered.

"I think it's time to get some rest." Emori said.

"How long have you known?" Ryker questioned.

"No you go,I don't need rest." Raven said to Emori questioned.

"I need to get this done as fast as I can,so we can get the hell out of here." Raven explained as Emori left.

"You know,as someone who's lived with pain for longer than I can remember,I can get wanting a new body,just wouldn't murder someone else for it." Raven ranted.

"And what if Nova's child is born a nightblood,will you take her child away from her,force her to watch as someone else where's her child's face?" She questioned.

-------------------

timeskip.....

Bellamy exhaled running his hands through his hair.

"Hey save your energy,your gonna need it." Bellamy told Murphy.

"He's right." Nova said,still wondering why he wasn't chained like them.

"Yeah?for what,another war,is that really what Clarke would want?" Murphy questioned.

"We don't know what Clarke would have wanted,it's too bad we can't ask her." Bellamy said.

"We know she wanted to do better,if we do this we start another war,it's bad enough that you knocked up there daughter,no offence." Murphy said to them.

"None taken." Nova murmered resting her head on Bellamy's shoulder.

"Somehow I don't think risking all of our lives,for revenge is a step in the right direction." Murphy explained.

"Why arn't you restrained like us?" Bellamy questioned.

"I don't know,maybe I seem less likely to rip their heads off,or in Nova's case burn them alive." Murphy said.

Bellamy and Nova got up,Nova decided it would be best to take a step back.

"Why are you really here Murphy?" Bellamy questioned.

"You really want to know?" Murphy answered.

"Yeah we do." Nova answered from her spot on the floor,rubbing her stomach.

"Fine,Im here to convince you to take the deal,there I said." He explained.

"Why am I not suprised?What did you see when you died Murphy?" Bellamy said dissappointed.

"Am I trying to save my own ass? Yeah I am,but Im also saving yours,just like I did during the red sun." Murphy explained.

"Hell Im saving all of you,which includes Nova and baby Blake." He continued.

"Bellamy,Nova, if we take this deal we get everything we want,we get to live."  Murphy said to them.

"What,are yall gonna be body snathchers,you'll age,did abby already make the nightblood serum,because I dont know about you murphy,but Bellamy would end up as Ryker's new body." Nova explained.

"You don't know that." Murphy said as Bellamy grabbed Nova's waist.

"But I do,they want me to marry Ryker,they hate the fact that im pregnant with an outsiders child,a bastered,If Ryker takes Bellamy's body,he can say he was the father all along,and the rest all falls into place." Nova rambled leaning into bellamy.

9. The 100 Season 7 Episode 13 "Blood Giant" Bellamy Rant by Maymoney In Da' Building (Youtube) - Review.

《I'm just like wtf and [...] when it happened I was like not even prepared for it. I didn't even feel emotionally prepared for it and then she just left him bleeding on the f floor to die alone. He's been a character since season one, episode one, male lead. It's like what happened behind the scenes that's so bad for you to like... have no professionalism to write his character off correctly. You can kill him off. I don't want Bellamy to die, he's my favorite character, but if he dies give him a better depth than that garbage that you just tried to force down our throats and make us accept like [...]. You just ruin this entire f show for me. I'm pissed, I feel so... It's so stupid, it doesn't make any sense and it doesn't make any sense for all of the other characters to just write him off as a villain like so easily when he's done nothing but protect them and believe in them and save them and all sorts of things [...]. I mean it's outrage, it's disrespectful, it's disrespectful to the fans too [...].》

《You were just a spiteful small little heartless little man, okay? And you know who I'm talking about. I'm talking about this f writer because there's no way like [...]. You must have no experience with love or relationship at all because that's not how it works. Whatever you're going through in your personal life you need to learn how relationships and love f works. And because this ain't how it works you have to be real small and stupid and ignorant and just egotistical to pull that [...]. I feel hella hurt and betrayed by that bs and I hope you never ever write anything ever again.》

《That shit's just wrong bro that [...] is just wrong and it's like damn... He wasn't even in the season and the season for me personally suffered because Bellamy wasn't there. There was no Bellamy in it and when we finally got him things were looking up... Even though he was on the wrong side I was still happy to have his character in because he's a dynamic character that we all love and it don't matter what side he's on because we always know that he comes back to the right side. He can make mistakes but that'll mean he can't come back. But you just completely obliterated everything that he stood for as a character in the whole message that we thought... I guess was trying to be portrayed with his character . But apparently I must be stupid, okay? I must be just dumb as f because everything that I thought his character stood for... Love for his friends and family and trying to always trying to protect the people that he cared about and his people... Obviously that just goes out the window like... What was it all? What was the point?》

《It doesn't matter to me because obviously this show doesn't matter to you. Obviously the character of Bellamy doesn't matter to you, so why should I care when your spin off... I hope it spins all the way off into oblivion where it never is seen by a soul.》

10. The 100 7x13 "Blood Giant" | Reaction - "Ranting about how bad this show has gotten for almost half an hour" by Bia Reacts (Youtube). - Review.

《Bob, if you ever watch this... I'm so sorry, you deserved so much better than this and also I would like to point out... I have been in this fandom for a while now and I would just like to say [...] Hey, Jason. We all know what happened, okay? And if you're watching this... We know what happened, we know why this happened, okay? You can't fool us, you can't fool us. We know why this happened. [...] We all know what happened and Bob, I'm legit sorry, I'm utterly frustrated and mad and I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry for Eliza too that she has, she had to, you know, shoot the scene... This is so disrespectful. The thing that makes me very angry is that this right here was just for shock value, you know? You are doing a tv show just because of the shock value. You're not thinking about the story and when you do a tv show I mean... Don't get me wrong, I love plot twists on the story. I love to be surprised but every plot twist, every good plot twist has a story behind it and if you do it only for the shock value you're just doing it to try to prove a point. You're just doing it to say "oh, I can do a plot twist on my show. I can surprise you. I can make your brain explode", you know? But you're not doing it for the sake of the story, you're just doing it to try to prove a point. You're just doing it to say "oh, my show is edgy, I can do plot twists, I can make people think" but you're forgetting everything that makes your show your show. You're forgetting all the character developments, you're forgetting all the relationship between the characters, you're forgetting all the story. It's just centered on the plot and this is not how a good tv show is.》
