Cute little holiday commission to get this season started right !!! 🙏🙏🙏

I swear to god, I didn’t use to be so anti-Bellarke but omfg their fans have driven me to the far end of disliking them so much. They make the ENTIRE show that has literally hundreds of characters about the whitest White Savior to white and an emotionally crippled and traumatized dude who just needs a vacation and a healthy relationship. With Echo. Not Clarke.

Sorry I left this chillin’ in my inbox for a few days, anon. The holidays were draining. And I knew my response would be upsetting to some people who ship them.

And honestly I do understand why some people ship them - in the books Bellamy and Clarke get together early on, and they are the leads of the show. They have decent chemistry. Hints and seeds suggesting it might go that way are everywhere, despite the fact that they are vague enough to be misconstrued.

It makes sense. It makes almost too much sense to me, which is part of why I disliked it initially. (The irrational hatred came later, after being in fandom.) The slowburn-between-a-male-and-female-lead thing has been done to death. It’s beyond tired as a trope. It’s expected, and it’s boring. (Oh, man, do blorkers hate it when you call their ship boring. I better get in my bunker.)

Maybe the writers are still headed that way, who knows. But (and I’ve said this before) I truly do not believe the happy and in love co-existence blorkers want is ever going to happen. If it does, it’ll be at the very end. We’ll never get a full-blown onscreen romance, a la Memori or Clexa or Zaven.In the meantime, there is so much more going on with this show than who is kissing who. Raven is a gorgeous, brilliant woman who only has one working leg. Emori never had a family or even a real friend until she met John. Echo is a spy who has learned to overcome a lifetime of secrets and assassinations to find love with a new family. Diyoza has an unborn child that’s now over 200 years old. Octavia went from annoying little sister to full-blown cannibalistic clan leader, and survived. Now we’re at a whole new planet, with new characters, new challenges, new lore and new possibilities.

With all of that going on, how can Bellamy and Clarke’s lack of fucking be the one thing blorkers focus on??If it was a smaller/quieter part of the fandom, it wouldn’t bother me as much. But it’s constant, to the point where many blorkers act as if people who don’t ship them are evil or don’t belong in the fandom. People like us who don’t ship them can tag, blacklist, block users, etc - but that ship is impossible to escape. 

It’s annoying. It’s distracting from the true themes of the show. And it’s a motherfuckin’ boring ship! Come for me, I don’t care anymore. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I block the really obnoxious blorkers on sight now anyway.(If we’re mutuals and you ship it, I promise none of this is directed at you. If I follow you, I don’t find you obnoxious, obviously, lmao.)
