madness

I'm very neutral about it all and I'm swerving the hate left and right.

I'm not sure why people are so shocked or upset about it, six years in space... It was bound to happen, no?

I'm so ready to see them badass fighting together.

Damocles

I just question those people like...they must not pay attention to the show or read any articles or anything like that? It’s the only explanation.

Six years is a LONG time - I think people are forgetting this.

madness

Definitely. I was watching a reaction video of somehow who was just questioning everything and didn't find anyone portrayed realistically and I just??? Six years is a really long time. You don't know what they've been through, or how these people act in a time of peace because Clarke/Madi and spacekru had mostly peace times, I assume so how can you say what would happen?

Ropetuned

I'm so glad these two happened!

All of the Bellarke shippers going ape**** out there is the icing on the cake

madness

A lot is going to change when they get back on the ground, and I fear their relationship won't survive it either.

I hope they can settle into what I had hoped from the start, a more second-in-command/leader dynamic. It seems like Bellamy has already learned quite a bit of moves from her.

Ropetuned

I just hope they at least give it a chance instead of them finally getting back on the ground and they break up because they got together out of convenience or something. There are sometimes when I don't have faith in the writing..this is one of them.

a little chaos

Yeah, I'm also worried about Echo getting hurt. Obviously when they come down from space the Clarke revelation and Octavia being cray cray might come in between them. But I'm all for giving this ship a chance.

Damocles

Gentle reminder that this is a ship-friendly board, so we don't encourage the downfall of other ships nor do we condone bashing them in any way. I will never understand the need for people to pull down another ship to elevate theirs!



I liked this potential too, but I guess that's what Bellamy + Raven turned into. I guess he can always have two seconds -in-command

Well, let's see what happens! Seems that they actually truly care about eachother.

madness

Bellamy Blake can have all the seconds-in-command he wants. *waiting on Miller to join the party*

a little chaos

I think this ship gives a great opportunity of displaying Echo's softer side. We honestly haven't seen enough really to decide what they're like as a couple.

I think cause of the time jump it feels a bit strange cause as viewers they went from being enemies to being a couple so we haven't seen that build up, which makes me believe they might just be a plot device to create certain conflicts on the ground.

Right now I just want to see how it goes, I'll reserve judgement til then.

madness

Definitely. I'm just glad we saw Echo smile, I love that more relaxed side of her. And her bantering with Bellamy. A+ content.

a little chaos

Echo had absolutely no chill in the previous seasons, like many grounders really So I think being around Skaikru in an environment where you're not constantly fighting for survival will definitely soften a person.

I think if people give this new version of Echo a chance, they may actually like her

I'm really glad that some of you like Bellamy with Echo, because I'm a multishipper and the Bellamy/Echo scene was my favorite scene of the whole episode
I think I've watched the Becho scene more than 20 times today

Almost everyone is Anti-Becho in the episode thread ... so I stay away from that thread

It's soo good to see that Bellamy has found some love in space
I love it to see him and Echo smile at each other
Bob and Tasya have great chemistry in their scene IMO

Can you please add me to the OP shippers list Lisa?

the1marie

I thought it was a sweet scene too, Sonja And it definitely made me interested to see moe of their relationship

Damocles

Sonja that's not true Some in the episode thread are just "disturbed" by Echo, but most (like me) are currently neutral. I thought it was actually a sweet scene

I'll add you now
