( clarke herself has been through that emotional rollercoaster a few times before. back in the early days of the ship, she'd often found herself wishing the likes of bellamy and octavia blake, abby griffin, raven reyes would spontaneously appear because then at least she wouldn't be alone in processing the shock of going from apocalypse to cruise ship. and because she missed them. missed their faces, their voices, the familiarity; and because the veil of death was permeable on board the serena eterna, she'd also allowed herself to wistfully daydream about reuniting with her father or lexa. hell, she'd have even given a limb to see murphy again at some points.
but she'd always reprimanded herself internally afterwards. that was selfish, that was a want, not a need. and it didn't mean her friends would be any better off there than they had been on their irradiated homeworld.
it's a little different when she considers the passengers of the ship, though. despite coming to call it home after the last two years, clarke had never managed to make and sustain as many relationships as the others. her group was close and closed off, and she was content with that. would miss the likes of sharky and pratt, would mourn for the other members of team mutiny — and fio, just by virtue of her being a child. but with rita here, the only people she could think would be worse off without them are jade and — )
Do you think it's "best" for Natsuno to still be behind bars? Or should we at least look for him.
( rhetorical question. also the latter half not even phrased as a question. also, a little bit mean. and vaguely mirroring the time they'd hunted down his explosion closet in early october! but — damn if clarke griffin doesn't know her audience here, right? avoiding bad medical treatment is just a plus. she's found one best friend, now time to turn their attention towards the other. )
