I can only imagine. He's the epitome of angst.

Yeah, Bellamy is honestly just a tragic character all around.

Yeah, and it pains me when people don't see that and just ignore his wonderful character.

I always say that I don’t care if someone doesn’t like him, but it upsets me when some people hate on the character just because he’s half of a ship. Like, have a better reason!

He’s a tragic character, but it’s weird, because . . . for some reason, he also gives me hope, too? Maybe because he just keeps on going no matter what.

Exactly my feelings. If you have genuine reasons for disliking him, that's fine. I just don't get people hating on him due to shippery reasons.

It's true though, he's tragic but there's an underlying hope there? That he can overcome whatever challenges life throws at him, as long as he keeps a level head.

Definitely.

If he can overcome the tragedy he's been through and come out of this as this person who refused to be broken by his circumstances, I think his story can indeed be seen as quite the hopeful one, especially since we've seen multiple characters just completely break but Bellamy is still around and he's still this wonderful guy trying to make the right decisions. Bellamy truly is my favourite.

I think the underlying hope in Bellamy's character is his humanity, and also that he keeps fighting. We see that in him multiple times over the season. Also, that he's "the heart."

Ooh, so well-said.

Do you guys think he’ll always be “the heart” even if he has learned to use his head a lot more?

It's hard to say. Currently, I'd say yes. But I can see other characters slowly taking that "heart" role (Monty, or perhaps Madi).

I can see maybe a slight head/heart role reversal between Bellarke, but maybe not 100 percent reversal.

I like to think/hope he always will be. No matter how much he’s learned to use his head, Bellamy’s heart just IS who he is.

Yeah, I agree with that. It would be odd for him to shut off that side of himself in any capacity. Although I'm sure that he'll struggle with it, since Octavia is probably his biggest "use my heart over my head" pull, and he's away from her in space. But knowing that she's down there (and wanting to live "for Clarke") will keep him using his heart above all else.

I do hope you’re right with that, Amelia.

I think so too. I definitely think that he'll be a lot more "head" in those 6 years because of what he vowed to do (in the convo with Raven) and honouring Clarke's sacrifice but I don't think that he'll ever be able to entirely shake off the emotional side of him when it comes to making decisions, interacting with others etc. I'm just really excited to see a more "balanced" Bellamy this season, in any case.
