Talk:Bellamy and Octavia/@comment-26247132-20150616024109/@comment-11565898-20170106231553

Honestly I thought about this too.

First, I also would like to think that Bellamy taught Octavia what he was learning as a cadet. However, Lincoln also could've just been a really good teacher and the Blake's had little to no food, so it's not like Octavia could've become any more than skinny. So unless the writers tell us, we'll never really know(which kills a little bit of me, but whatever).

Onto the next point, I doubt that Bellamy was allowed to see Octavia. I mean,it could've been that he felt guilty and didn't want to see her (Again, something the writers need to clarify), but I think that Bellamy was banned from seeing Octavia. It makes more sense to me that way because Bellamy would've done anything for his sister so besides guilt, why wouldn't he go see her? I agree with you, Bellamy would've put his own feeling aside to go see his sister. Also, Octavia loved her brother. What reason would she have for not wanting to see the only other person she knew on the Ark?

To me(and this is purely speculation), The Ark told Bellamy he couldn't see Octavia as a way of breaking the tie between them. I mean, why else wasn't Bellamy floated? He was well over 18 and an active participant in the "crime" (I hate saying that btw). What I think happened is that Aurora took the blame for the whole situation and made it seem like Bellamy was an unwilling participant. Then The Ark not wanting for Bellamy and Octavia to get closer, told Bellamy he couldn't visit her and told Octavia she wasn't allowed any visitors. Maybe they put her in solitary.

Either way, it's shitty and I hate it. They deserved better.
