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

I like to think Bellamy taught Octavia everything he learned as an Ark Guard Cadet, like all the fighting techniques and stuff. There wasn't much else for her to do in their tiny quarters and she probably didn't have any other way of getting exercise. She probably also continued "training" when she was locked up for that year. It makes it seem less of a stretch for how quickly she became a Grounder Warrior.

Speaking of being locked up for a year, in the Pilot, it's quiet clear they haven't seen each other in that entire time. Why? Was she locked up in solitary or maybe part of her punishment is that she wasn't allowed to see him? I can't imagine Bellamy not visiting Octavia and leaving her completely alone no matter how guilty he might have felt nor can I imagine Octavia refusing to see Bellamy otherwise she wouldn't have been so happy to see him again in the Pilot.
