Episode 10
I SHOULDN’T READ FANFICTION BEFORE WATCHING ALL OF THE SHOW.
torture is nasty yo. but we knew that FROM LINCOLN BEING TORTURED.
hm. i wonder who got tortured first. I wonder if it matters...nope it doesn’t really.
so Bellamy still gets to decide who gets what tent. I mean, they say Clarke is a leader but does she involve herself at all with the logistics? Like, don’t just tell Raven to stay away from these people. TELL EVERYONE.
Murphy is a biological weapon. Damnnnn. how the hell does he survive till season 3.
how are they gonna get out of a cureless disease? It’s ages still till the medbay crashes and Abby arrives and she can’t just whip up a cure in a few hours.
If people start projectile spewing up blood I can totally see how this disease spreads like wildfire. damn. Maybe Murphy survives because no reason he’s super weak, and maybe Clarke survives because no reason but she’s pretty strong physically it seems. Oh ok so the virus for some reason doesn’t kill even though people are vomiting up and crying and bleeding liters of blood and it just recedes after killing only the ‘weak’. i mean....that sound fake but okay
why the fuck is Raven running around the forest with a HIGHLY EXPLOSIVE substance in her backpack. damn. why are you RUNNING.
is Finn goingto be forced to shoot the bomb with people on the bridge? now THIS i find an acceptable dilemma. nawww it’s just monty coming to the rescue with the power of friendship so jasper can kill a bunch of people!
ok it’s true that Finn hesitated over planting a bomb an ddidn’t hesitate catching Clarke, but he didn’t hesistate over saving Raven from the explosion either!! so....how is that not equivalent? Why not say that Finn? Like. I know Finn loves Clarke differently and i can understand Raven ending it over that but you couldn’t read it from these events. I guess Finn realised it was better to let go.
Murphy, a killer, through and through.WHY DOES HE MAKE IT TO SEASON 3?? How do I deal with this character? how do i deal with the narrative sympathising him, how do i say no when the narrative insists that actually he may be a murderer out of spite but whatever, he’s gonna save the world. I can’t even hate him, i don’t care enough to. He’s just.....he’s got no morality. no code of conduct. He’s animalistic. While it’s true that morality often produces great suffering, Murphy DELIGHTS in causing suffering. He’s a sadist. There’s something about that which is extremely perverse, not infuriating, like people who feel justified in causing suffering. Just, something that needs to leave this world. But i have the nasty feeling that season 3 is gonna make the argument that actually that’s what makes us human or something (envy, hate, pain, spite and resulting actions of sadism apparently)
ugh im so done give me some goddamn grounders the skaikru piss me off. why do i prefer the grounders???? they do horrible things like torture and killing people for trespassing or traitoring and eliminating a threat as well? It’s like....they’re more reserved. More level-headed. They really ARE being invaded. By people who seem very much like the people who have for years reaped from among their population. Tresspassing, a village burned, a warrior tortured. Somehow it makes everything seem more understandable.
Skaikru just respond with fear and violence and Othering that has brought them to a tipping point that leaves them with nothing but death as only option. as Anya said, they have started a war that they do not know how to stop, and then they shot at Trikru when they were having a fucking peace talk.
SHE TRIED. ANYA TRIEDDDD to have peace, to try and make sure the skaikru weren’t a threat. And they ARE. they make themselves a threat. Clarke ya fucked up. well now I can watch the rest bc whatevs yo they either kill lots of grounders or die. that’s what it’s gotten to.
