Talk:Clarke and Lexa/@comment-3457775-20150306011706

I think involving the betrayal, we have to keep in mind Lexa's side. First of all, Lexa is at first and foremost, a commander and a leader. She has to put her people first, like any leader would. People have mentioned this, and so has her actresses, her people come first, before her personal life, before her feelings. Second of all, Lexa said it herself, she thought with her head, not her heart. We all know that Lexa hates emotions, and part of her probably thought she was weak for giving into her feelings for Clarke. By doing this, and breaking the alliance and betraying Clarke, maybe she thought it would interfere with her feelings. Lastly, I don't think that this is the last we've seen of Lexa. The showrunner noted that the place Lexa mentioned, Polis, is Grounder Central. I feel like this will not be the end of her storyline. I feel like we're going to find out more.

Evidentally, it's been said many times, and I know a lot of people are angry, but Lexa put her people first, like a true leader. What she did is not out of character for her, a brillant leader of the grounders. Head over heart. She did what she had to do, even if it cost her. She did what she had to do to save her people.
