[it might be a Big Deal in movies but for clarke, the invitation and the fact she was reaching out to him to come with her was really her way of showing him that she was still trying despite how things left off between them back home with her leaving camp.
she's actually surprised by his response, not really expecting him to agree to it. he could have said no and she wouldn't have thought anything of it and just gone by herself like she usually does but she's glad that he doesn't]
i'm not sure. i think it'd be a bit different even though idea of the masquerade is probably the same. [with all the dressing up and wearing masks and all that. except it'd probably be a lot more fancier than what was on the ark, not to mention it was for a different occasion too]
The last one I went to, I was a part of the Guard. It was nothing to write home about.
[ and he'd gotten o locked up and mom floated. but it's easier to detach himself from it without really thinking of it. all the other unity day celebrations, he'd gone when it was mandatory, but had, otherwise, stayed in their little unit on the ark and played with octavia. he can't really remember a moment when he wasn't with his sister. ]
I was going to go for the free food. It's already different from Unity Day there.
[sometimes it's easy for clarke the differences between them and how that was part of his life back on the ark. she doesn't know the context of it being the reason octavia was locked up and his mother being floated but she figures it has to do with being part of the guard]
oh, yeah i guess that would make it a lot less exciting.
but yeah the free food definitely is big difference too. [she doesn't even care that's the reason he agreed to go with her really]
[ is it really the reason he agreed to go with her? it remains a mystery for now. ]
[ but he figures she wants to go for the free food, too. he does think to ask why she's even inviting him to tag along, but bellamy doesn't want to ruin what seems to be a good thing. sometimes nitpicking at something can only make it fall apart, especially when it's not a strong enough to withstand the probing. what lies between them right now, it's a little too delicate. ]
[whether it's the reason he agreed or not, clarke doesn't question it either but she does hate herself a little bit for feeling like she needed to ask him to come with her and even for being glad he agreed to come]
