Talk:Clarke and Bellamy/@comment-162.207.205.192-20170605022558

One of the best things about bellarke so far is that they are NOT a romatic couple. I love that these two lead characters (capable of attraction) can love, support, and need each other, and share power, without having to also be a romantic couple. Showing such intensity without physical romance makes both their relationship and the show stronger. (And their plot lines can escape romantic relationship dramas for much longer.)

Other characters and relationships have provided enough of the power/love teams, like Abby+Kane and Clark+Lexa. Bellamy's primary, deepest (exclusive?) love has been Octavia.

That said, with Octavia's new role and their being separated for at least 5 years, along with Clark's sacrifice for the Ark retrunees, Bellamy might turn his idealizing heart to Clark.
