Favorite Characters: -Clarke: Even when you think she's down, she still manages to come back and I like that. She really does care about people even if she makes careless decisions while trying to "save" them. I wish she would trust herself more and understand that she can't save everyone, but you know...the writers...

-Bellamy: As irritating as his character has been in S3, I really do like Bellamy. He's protective over those he cares about and he cares a lot for people. I think that he is so stuck in his self-loathing that he doesn't trust himself to make good decisions and that's kind of upsetting, but I get it. He's a good leader when he allows himself to be and while he began as a Rebel king, I think Raven had it right(or rather ALIE) when she said that he had become a knight.

-Octavia: I don't need an explanation for her. She's great and that's it. She's a bit impulsive and aggressive at times, but she's still great. I think this season in particular has been trying simply because she lost Lincoln, a person she considered home, and she also lost her faith in her brother. So, it will be interesting to see where her character will go down the line.

-Raven: Another person who doesn't need an explanation because she is literally awesome at everything she does. She's not great at handling her emotions, but I think it's great to see typical "guy" traits shown in such a strong female character. She's been faced with some much crap and every time, she gets up and tries to fix it. So yeah, Raven's awesome.

Jasper: I know he's been difficult in S3 and there were times when I wanted someone to smack him in the head, but Jasper is still a great character. While he's a bit emotional for my taste(I mean Raven has had more stuff happen to her, but she's not crying all the time), I think that overall he is strong. He's willing to step up if needed and I think that sometimes gets overlooked simply because Clarke and Bellamy are such strong leaders.

Monty: My precious boy! I don't understand how someone can NOT like his character. Even if we haven't gotten to see a lot of him, I think that he has proven that he is just as strong as the other characters. He's smart, but doesn't show off and tbh, the guy is a major dork and that is awesome. I glad to see the writers giving him more of a storyline(even if I don't like seeing him in so much pain) and I hope to see more in the future.

Murphy: I really do like Murphy even if he is morally ambiguous. I think he and Bellamy share a lot in common because honestly, I think Murphy is who Bellamy could have been if he hadn't had Octavia or Clarke to show him something different. I think Murphy, given the chance, would do what is right because deep down, he does want to be the good guy. Plus, he's sassy AF and I like that.
