#clexa rikleimt

[dyke-terra]

Anyone remember Clexa Rikleimt? Because we barely do.

Holy shit, we were idly curious about the fate of a fan project we were in years ago— I don’t remember why we left— and apparently there was major drama.

[clexarikleimt-blog]

Do you peeps have an eta? I haven't heard anything in ages. Is this still happening?

Let me check the schedule…

Ah, yes! We have something ready to share soon. ;)

[dontwantthenextcommanderiwantyou]

Someone: Why are you still into that fandom when you don’t like that show anymore? - Me: Have a seat, this may take a while...

This is all from a fandom that had our ship for 2 years. #LookWhatWe’veDone

“Lexa was the one for her.” “Lexa was her soulmate.” “Lexa was the love of her life.” “Clarke will never love anyone the way she loved Lexa.” “Clarke will always be grieving Lexa.” - Eliza Taylor (Clarke Griffin herself). Clexa didn’t just kiss, they didn’t hook up, they made love. Doesn’t get more canon than that :) 

It’s more than a fandom, it’s the lgbtq community. Multiple full size billboards were put up, bringing attention to the “Bury your gays” trope. Unlike others who only think about themselves, we actually did something positive in the real world to benefit the lgbtq community, we helped raise over $162,500 in charity for the Trevor Project. We got the television industry to recognize their use of tropes and inspired The Lexa Pledge by showrunners to do right by their LGBT audience. We got “LGBT Fans Deserve Better” trending worldwide, staying in the top 10 for hours with over 276K tweets.

We trended worldwide 55 times in the weeks following Lexa’s death. Fans from all around the globe were devastated. “Lexa Deserved Better” spread across the world with hundreds of fans sharing their pictures from more than 200 cities and over 55 countries.

We dominate in the polls, there’s no other way to describe our 47 poll wins so far, and 7 more polls we’re currently leading. Did I mention we only had our ship for a total of 15 episodes, plus the fact that alot of these polls were won with “half our ship dead” as haters like to point out... just shows how powerful Clexakru is because we continue to win even with fandoms teaming up against us Lol It’s been nearly a full year since Lexa died and we’re still winning polls :D

Me: Okay Google, what is “extra”? - Google: The Clexa Fandom.

Yes, we legit made up an entirely new character, Elyza Lex, and ship her with Alycia’s character on Fear, Alicia Clark, to make our spinoff ship Lexark and dubbed the show “Queer the Walking Dead”. Working with the Clexa material we got in the short time span, we built an empire on fanfics, fanart, comics, etc, created by some of the most talented fans. Plus all of the character social media accounts, if you're not following @confusedlexa on Twitter you are seriously missing out :D Meanwhile we made Jason Rottenassberg’s follower count drop faster than The Loo ratings. The outrage at The Loo isn’t just limited to our fandom, it’s shown by the many articles written labeling The Loo as one of the worst shows of 2016. It’s days before the season premier and the public is still dragging the show, it’s won polls for “Biggest Disappointment”, “Show You Gave Up On”, and more... talk about karma ;) Eliza’s openly asked fans for Clexa fic recs and admitted that her mother has a Lexark picture in her home. We really couldn’t have a more dedicated Captain of the Bitanic, a year later she’s still the biggest Clexa shipper <3 As if that wasn’t enough, how many characters have such an iconic look that they got their own SnapChat filter and Sims makeup? And to top it all off, we have a star, a real star in the sky!

With just 2 brief mentions, we made Costia into more than just a name, we brought her to life, unofficially decided to cast Nathalie Emmanuel for the role, and headcanon Lexa’s first love as a beautiful sapphic woman of color. 

We have Elycia, Eliza & Alycia, BFF’s in real life. Without them, we wouldn’t have Clexa. Alycia’s moved on to a better show, like many other cast members have done. Eliza will move on to bigger and better things as well when The Loo gets cancelled and she’ll finally be free from all the ... “shit” ;)

Clarke Griffin, Wanheda, The Ambassador of the 13th clan, Klark kom Skaikru, Fleimkepa, Leader of the ungrateful sky brats <3 “You bring them justice.” “I know you’re just trying to help.” - Lexa to Clarke. “Clarke elevates herself... she’s special.” - Lexa to Titus about Clarke. Lexa was the only person who never berated, belittled, or blamed Clarke.

Lexa, Heda, The Commander of the 12 clans, Leksa kom Trikru, Soulmate of Clarke Griffin, also known as Alexandria Woods in fanfics <3 “I want you!”, “I love you.”- Clarke to Lexa. “We loved her.”- Aden to Clarke about Lexa. The girl who was taught “love is weakness”, was loved by many.

*Those great Clarke and Lexa gifs were made by @amgirl01

This is just too amazing not to include, check out @miselizasjane Grounders trailer. Things like that are why I’m so into this fandom and always will be. I have other wlw ships, some of them I really love and have shipped for years, some more recently. But none of them mean more to me than Clexa, I’ll always be Clexakru, because it’s about so much more than just a ship or a show.

To all the anons asking about the recent mass exit from Rikleimt

To all our followers who love our salty ways.

To all the individuals who have been sending us screenshots.

Well. We cannot say this surprised us. We cannot say it has not been anticipated. 

What we can say is that it’s well overdue.

Rikleimt is and has been a negative environment for many. From the subtle (and often not so subtle) racist undertones to malicious behaviors, bullying, and outright toxicity.

So Yes, we celebrate with the newly liberated. Congratulations, you’re free!

Free to represent the fandom and your ship with the consideration they deserve and the creative liberty you deserve. 

For those who’ve decided to stay we have this to say: Good luck. 

We will be avidly watching and waiting to see your “saving the fandom” project. And Expecting everything you continue to boast about. 

We have seen mass exits 3 times now. We’ve seen your rallying speeches. We’ve seen your changes in procedure and policy. Time and time again. 

With the same results. 

The very definition of insanity. 

However we sincerely hope you prove us wrong in the end.

Signed Cashiers.

And others who chose to leave the project more amicably”

Hey, are you interested in making a Clexa comic book series? For example: rewriting season 3. I can write and you can draw. Together :)

Aw maaan I wish I had the patience and experience and time to get into another big project like that, lol. That would be so good, but I most likely can’t.

Although now that you mention it, I realized recently how freaking amazing it was that the content creators in this fandom have managed to claim back Clexa (and the entirety of season 3, without its non sequiturs) as their own. There’s a lot of dedicated fans who’ve been hard at work doing just that. For example, I hear there’s a really cool, professionally drawn graphic novel centered around Lexark (Elyza Lex-Alicia Clark), that has been entirely funded via Kickstarter. And I think there’s another big project called Rikleimt that’s set to rewrite season 3 across multiple media (fanart/fanfics/animation etc.).

Anyways Clarke and Lexa are in the right hands now ^^

What happened to Clexa Rikleimt?

We aren’t affiliated with that project, so your guess is as good as ours. :)

Hey y'all, This is just a quick note to let you know that (once again) I'm no longer involved in Clexa Rikleimt. This is for personal reasons like my mental health, and also because I want to double down and focus on my own projects, namely Young Gods and PPAU. I wish those who are still at work on the project nothing but the best, and I am more optimistic for its future than ever, because the freshness of ideas, enthusiasm, and general openness has restored the spirit of what Rikleimt is supposed to be all about. I believe that this project is going to be something that the fandom can rally around and enjoy, and I know that I personally can't wait to see it :) Love, Cal

[commanderlexaofthegrounders]

Hi there my beautiful webkru !! It’s a beautiful day and I feel blessed... I’m sorry in advance for the wall of text that will probably appear on your dash if you’ve made the mistake of following me but I just gotta say this xD

I found Tumblr a bit before Error307 (ClexaKru will understand) and you guys were my support group. I didn’t stand alone and the way I felt so tarnished about it all, was somehow valid despite what everyone irl would tell me.

But then months passed... And I started feeling silly because it never actually went away. That void in my chest, that constant slight discomfort in the pit of my stomach reminding me something was missing, it was, is still there. 

But then Clexa Rikleimt was born. And I watched from afar, admiring these people and thanking them for doing something. And I hoped that the final product would take that darkness away. 

Until the day I decided to volunteer... And now, the darkness is just a fuzzy distant memory. This project is not only brave and ultimately beautiful, it is also an answered prayer. It is hope. It is initiative. It is suddenly family. It is understanding.

I’ve been there for not much longer than a month and I managed to heal more in the last few weeks than in the past few months. I am proud to be part of this phenomenal project and blessed to be part of the Rikleimt family. 

It’s surreal to see the magic happen... I’m always surrounded by talent and positivity. And I feel heard, maybe for the first time in my entire life. I’m not scared to speak my mind because I know no question or suggestion is stupid. I’m respected and treated like the human being I am. I am cared for... Because believe it or not I’ve been told “STOP WORKING and go sleep!” more times than I can count. And I’ve made friends and I have learned sooo much. Not just in the areas I’m working on, but as a person. I have grown. I have seen people grow and flourish. I have seen support and love. Guys, there’s a channel JUST DEDICATED to giving love and support to people, to praise talent and hard-work. They say google is the best place to work in? Well they haven’t seen Clexa Rikleimt. 

I love you all, if you’re reading this. You are all doing a fantastic job and I am so lucky you all exist. You’re home.

Tell me about the dream where we pull the bodies out of the lake and dress them in warm clothes again. How it was late, and no one could sleep, the horses running until they forget they are horses.  It's not like a tree where the roots have to end somewhere, it's more like a song on a policeman's radio, how we rolled up the carpet so we could dance, and the days were bright red, and every time we kissed there was another apple to slice into pieces. Look at the light through the windowpane. That means it's noon, that means we're inconsolable.  Tell me how all this, and love too, will ruin us. These, our bodies, possessed by light. Tell me we'll never get used to it.

“Scheherazade,” Richard Siken.  From the post: 

“The frame tale goes that every day The King would marry a new virgin, and every day he would send yesterday’s wife to be beheaded. This was done in anger, having found out that his first wife was betraying him. He had killed one thousand such women by the time he was introduced to Scheherazade, the vizier’s daughter. 

Against her father’s protestations, Scheherazade volunteered to spend one night with the King. Once in the King’s chambers, Scheherazade asked if she might bid one last farewell to her beloved sister, Dinazade, who had secretly been prepared to ask Scheherazade to tell a story during the long night. The King lay awake and listened with awe as Scheherazade told her first story. The night passed by, and Scheherazade stopped in the middle of the story. The King asked her to finish, but Scheherazade said there was not time, as dawn was breaking. So, the King spared her life for one day to finish the story the next night. So the next night, Scheherazade finished the story, and then began a second, even more exciting tale which she again stopped halfway through, at dawn. So the King again spared her life for one day to finish the second story.

And so the King kept Scheherazade alive day by day, as he eagerly anticipated the finishing of last night’s story. At the end of one thousand and one nights, and one thousand stories, Scheherazade told the King that she had no more tales to tell him. During these one thousand and one nights, the King had fallen in love with Scheherazade, and had three sons with her. So, having been made a wiser and kinder man by Scheherazade and her tales, he spared her life, and made her his Queen.”

Now read the poem again.
