Honestly, it would be a shame to waste the AMAZING chemistry that Bob/Eliza have together and the storyline potential for Bellamy and Clarke.

So yup, I'm holding on to the possibility of a romance. And I still think what Jason said is optimistic in that aspect.

He is letting the story take its course. And he is not putting any "plans" on it. If he had a plan before and stuck to it, it wouldn't look good for us since he says that he never planned the romance for them. But now that he is more open to whatever happens in the future and to letting the characters dictate where it's going, there is a huge chance for romance here.

Jason also keeps talking about how Bob's acting just took over. Again, I don't think he planned for Bellamy to be such a huge focus. Just watch the pilot again. But Bob's acting was so impressive that he kept giving him more amazing storyline material.

A lot of time what is unplanned turns out to be the best thing.

So I think romance is still a huge possibility for Bellarke. And it's not my "shipper goggles" or whatever. I'm an English major. I've written stories/scripts/etc. And the Bellarke dynamic just screams romance to me.

Even Eliza has said in numerous interviews that Bellarke has the making of the most interesting romance because of their dynamic and storyline.

Time for a NEW thread! Any title ideas, guys???
