S6 has been so great for us Bellamy fans.

Eliza deserves all the praise in the world for how she’s portrayed Clarke vs. Josephine, but I feel like Bob deserves some praise for portraying the difference in Bellamy’s interactions with Clarke vs. Josephine, too. Like how he has to immediately flip a switch when Bellamy finds out Clarke can hear what’s going on, or how he reacts when he finds out Clarke has regained control.

The little nuances in his expressions just conveys so much, the way he just switches the emotions as the scene calls for it. Bob is so good.

I’m not super familiar with the reference, but I like the tweet anyway, because it’s been great character development. Sachin seems to really like Bellamy.

When Bellamy grinned, I almost yodelled. Bob's Bellamy is soooo different, he's sort of more gruff and has a different kind of sass, it's more of an old-man sass

I loved his sass with Josephine and how it was annoying her. He did go through a whole lot of emotions in this episode, and as always it’s a joy to watch him.

He's so good at showing how he feels just with his face.

I thought you taught English? You don’t have to teach Greek mythology?

But really, April, you should at least watch the movie Troy. You would love it. Brad Pitt, Eric Bana, Orlando Bloom. It’s a great cast. Achilles is rough and harsh; Hector is kind and softer. So that’s the reference.

I came in here to share my husband’s Bellamy comments.

When Clarke fought off CoG, he said, “Bellamy’s such a beast.” I replied, “Um, that was Clarke.” He was like, “No, Steph, it’s always about Bellamy. He’s always a beast, no matter what he’s doing.”

Yah, and I actually teach Greek mythology as a unit, but my knowledge doesn’t extend much beyond the major gods and goddesses of Mt. Olympus.

I sill think your husband needs to be added to the list in the OO. He’s such a stan.

Haha, there’s a toooon of Greek mythology, and I only know things here and there. I honestly know about Achilles and Hector because of the movie. It was cast when I was studying it in high school and I loooooved Orlando Bloom back then, so I paid more attention to it all. The movie is very good though; I recommend it.

Oh, he can totally be on the list.

What age group do you teach? You don't have to teach the Iliad by Homer? At uni, Greek and Roman mythology and literature are not part of the curriculum?

I teach 7th grade, primarily.

Love it, number one Bellamy stan coming through again.

7th grade is like 12yo? They are definitely too young for Homer. :-) I had to read both the Odyssey and Iliad when I was around 14, and although I liked mythology quite a lot, I was struggling with them and made me hate epic poetry for quite some time.
I had such a huge crush on Eric Bana in Troy.

Anyway, Sachin's reference is fitting for mythology-loving Bellamy. Do you remember that Gina gave the Iliad to Bellamy back in s3? #ginawasreal
