Wow. Slut-shaming in the second sentence. Nice going.

First of all, she was locked up for seventeen years of her life. It's natural to want to experience things, involving flirting and kissing and have sex with boys. Finn flirted back, and he had a girlfriend. Are you going to call him out on that? Lincoln had been watching her the entire time there were down there, so maybe he was attracted to her because of her looks, but he also saw her mannerisms and how she acted with the other deliquens and such. We didn't get to see a lot of Lincoln and Octavia in the very beginning on screen, either.

"She's really useless but always acts like a total badass and rebel and people in the camp have to waste their time taking care of her." I'm sorry, but who's wasting their time to take care of her? Bellamy, Finn, Jasper, and Monroe - along with three other deliquents whose names I can't remembered when after her when she was missing. Jasper also had a search team go after him - where's your complaint about that? She's not useless, at least not in my opinion. If I believed she was useless, then I'd have to believe every other deliquent was useless when they clearly weren't. Octavia helped with the food and helped defend the camp against the grounders in the season 1 finale. That doesn't really seem useless to me, but to each their own.

She does care about a lot of people, not just Lincoln. Did you miss the part where Clarke said, "Her brother is more important to her than anybody - she'd never do anything to jeopordize his life." Or where she left Indra and the Trigedakru, the people where she felt like she truly belonged with for the first time, because she wasn't going to leave her brother?

Also, we saw Octavia get her ass kicked in season two, so obviously, she's not as good of a fighter as you're saying she is. However, it's been stated that Lincoln was teaching her ot fight, and she became Indra's second, which means she more than likely received training. Again, there are things that have been stated and can most likely be (postively, mind you) claimed to have happened off screen.

You're welcome to your own opinions, as am I, but slutshaming, blaming Octavia for flirting with Finn even though he flirted back and slept with Clarke even though he had a girlfriend, blaming Octavia for people trying to find her when she went missing even though that's not her fault and people did the same with Jasper, and then just making up things that have been disproven is wrong.

Have a nice day. x
