[ it takes a while for bellamy to even respond. a part of him is a little too caught up in speaking to anya, and another part doesn't want to talk about it anymore. the less he talks about it, the further away it moves from him. he doesn't want to reminisce about the mountain or tell anyone how he got out from the belly of the beast. thinking about it, from lincoln's involvement to maya and clarke and echo, hurts. ]
[ it doesn't surprise him lincoln's learned how to eavedrop. isn't that a skill every grounder needs to have when trying to survive? ]
Yeah. [ his own voice is clipped. if this was video, lincoln would be greeted by a cool expression, one guarded and sharp, designed to ward away those who think to even approach him on this subject. but he knows lincoln would. he'd learned something about lincoln that day. not only does he underestimate his own strength, but he isn't aware of how he's not a monster. ] I did.
[ bellamy doesn't find lincoln asking to be strange. although he suspects he'd made his way back to camp jaha to o, he wouldn't put it past him to not say a word. he wouldn't put it past him to avoid raven's workstation where bellamy's voice could've been heard crackling through the radio. bellamy understands how guilt works, and he's been avoiding looking up at the stars in fear he'll see three hundred bodies from section 17 lighting it up in a pretty glow. ]
[ speaking about the mountain to lincoln is difficult. betrayal is something he's never taken too lightly, but he's always been able to pick his battles. it's a struggle now; bellamy sometimes wondered if lincoln would've turned his back on o for a sip of the red drug, too. ] I don't go back on my word.
