#i. bellamy blake / character study ↠ wanted to be a better adversary to the evil I have done
* maya. vincent. lovejoy. lovejoy’s son. the faces of victims , some deserving , some undeserving - - - haunt him. some of these people sacrificed their shelter , sacrificed their home , their futures - - - to help him. to help gain justice for his people. ones that were wrongly used without consent , so that others effected by radiation could live. & how did bellamy repay them for those sacrifices ? for their help ? by poisoning them with radiation. some of his nightmares are intense , but he doesn’t share his grief with anyone.
* he does suffer from self - loathing & his nightmares lead to insomnia. some nights , he’d rather not sleep , he’d rather not think , he’d rather not be forced to endure the pain that his decisions have imprinted on him.
* when bellamy meets gina , he is instantly drawn to her lively spirit. he likes the fact that she can make him smile , that she believes in him , that she looks at him as if he’s heroic by nature. she makes him feel like less of a monster the more time he spends with her. however , bellamy never speaks of his struggles , never confides in her or shares what haunts him. he doesn’t want her to look at him differently , to look at him the way he looks at himself.

answer some questions & i'll give you a character arc : disillusionment arc.
it's hard to imagine yourself when you were young. maybe you were meant to be a hero; maybe you could have been, in another world, but this world only made you sad. there seemed to be TOO MANY PROBLEMS TO FIX and too much cruelty and too many hard lines that you did not know how to soften. the world turns and it is bloody and hard and you sit on your bed, thinking about the blood and the hardness and ALL YOU FAILED TO DO. i know it feels like you could sleep until the end of time, but i hope you don't. i hope you lift yourself out of bed one day, not to save the world, but to peel an orange and to walk in a forest; TO FIND ALL THE SOFTNESS YOU COULD NOT CREATE.

a prisoner of war. is this his destiny ? a fate he is always doomed to succumb to ? on the ark , on the ground. hell , jaha was mere child’s play compared to the enemies they face now. bellamy can feel his confidence beginning to slip with each rattle of his chains , ━━ octavia’s initiative the only minor inkling of hope he can cling to.
❛ on your feet. ❜
mindlessly ━━ he obeys. roan & his minions prepared to do whatever it takes to survive , to carelessly murder skaikru in the process.
o will find a way.
o will find a way.
O WILL FIND A WAY.
tightened jaw releases , enough to remind them : ❛ octavia will get there first. ❜ they pause , listening to him , possibly pondering how ludicrous their plan is. he can feel his confidence building the longer their silence lasts. ❛ she’ll warn them you’re coming. you’ll lose. ❜
dispirited , almost regretful eyes meet his & before he has a chance to process , metal collides with cement ━━ he feels his confidence diminish. daggers ━━ his sister’s daggers. ❛ no , ❜ he shakes his head in denial , silently pleading for refuge from the overwhelming emotions swallowing him whole.
tears threaten to spill & digits coil around the metal bars of the cell. he looks away , he refuses to face them , he will not let them see that they’ve succeeded in breaking him , in shattering his very being. knees begin to buckle & he sinks to the cement , screams of agonizing denial ripping from arid lips. members of azgeda peel a broken man from weeping on the dirty surface of the cement , dragging him away like a rag doll & he complies , he submits , he surrenders.
one promise made to his mother.
one code to live by : protect your sister , bellamy.
& he failed. he failed to save his mother from being floated & he wasn’t there to shield octavia from . . . enduring the same fate.
may we meet again . . .
he isn’t a hero. he’s a sham.
there’s nothing left. he has nothing. he is nothing.

what color are you according to my synesthesia? white.
this color represents THE TOUGH LOVE PERSONALITY. the type a's who need things to be neat and orderly. they like their environment to be just so. they always find a way to motivate themselves and meet their goals. they tend to set HIGH STANDARDS FOR THEMSELVES and others, this also means they're hard on themselves. while they might see the world in a very strict way 𝚃𝙷𝙴𝚈 𝙳𝙾𝙽'𝚃 𝙶𝙸𝚅𝙴 𝚃𝙷𝙴𝙼𝚂𝙴𝙻𝚅𝙴𝚂 𝙰𝙽𝚈 𝚂𝙻𝙰𝙲𝙺 𝙴𝙸𝚃𝙷𝙴𝚁. they need to be reminded to let go. sometimes IT'S OKAY TO PUT DOWN THE TO DO LIST and be spontaneous. the work will be there tomorrow, but opportunities to make your loved ones laugh come and go. breathe in. now breathe out. everything will be okay.
