Long List of Clexa Fic Recommendations pt 1
I’ve been reading a shit ton of fics lately to get through the The 100 hiatus and I thought maybe you guys might appreciate some awesome stories too. There’s like, a lot of them.
Here’s pt. 2. for shorter fics and prompts.
These Walls are Paper Thin - Danistalley12 [Rated G, Modern-setting]
Lexa was deep into her last year of law school and her life was finally beginning to stabilise. She was happy keeping to herself and her few friends, preferring to have as little contact with the rest of the world as possible. That was until she began receiving the mail of the girl who had moved into the apartment next to her and that’s when things began to change.
Summer Is Over (But I Found You) - snowtamale [Rated E, Modern-setting]
High school reunions are always a bad idea. Especially for a social outcast who spent four years pining for the head cheerleader before embarking on a summer “romance” with her and ending up with broken heart.
i built a home for you, for me (held on as tightly as you held onto me) - coat [Rated T, Modern-setting]
As Lexa walks past, giving the dog a wide berth, she spots a figure beside it. A girl with braided blonde hair stretches out on the park bench, fingers tangled in the dog’s thick fur. She frowns softly. Usually the homeless people Lexa sees are older males with scruffy beards, tugging shopping carts filled with cans. But this girl on the bench, her golden hair streaming over her back, looks so out of place that Lexa almost stops. Most homeless tend to stay near the city, yet here she is, in the middle of the forest.
Or: In which Lexa takes in two strays, but it’s really herself that’s saved in the process.
Rise Into Ruin - crazywisdom [Rated M, Alternate Universe - Post-Canon]
Post-2x16. She is tired, vengeful and she wants answers: that’s all that draws Clarke to Polis. But a new enemy on the horizon, cracks within the grounder hierarchy that threaten Lexa’s freshly-acquired charade of peace, and the reluctant desire to trust once more, makes her stay.
The Break Down - dance_tilyouredead [Rated T, Modern-setting]
Raven and Octavia grab Clarke for a coastal road trip but their car breaks down an hour in. Lexa is the mechanic that arrives with the tow truck.
Also Lexa has noticed Clarke at inter-school sports games for years. Pining Mini Lexa is my new favourite thing.
We Looked Like Giants - colonelpancake04 [Rated Mature, Modern-setting, Sequel: Cool for the Summer ]
Octavia scoffs and shakes her head. “No way in hell, Clarke.”
Clarke feigns innocence and puts on her most convincing confused face. “No way in hell what?”
“No way in hell are you thinking about sleeping with my cousin! She is off limits. It’s, like, girlcode or something.”
somewhere i have never travelled - unicyclehippo [Rated E, Modern-setting]
Lexa Wood doesn’t like being woken up at two am when her neighbour comes home from work. But, for baked goods and good company and the offer of no strings sex with possibly the most attractive person she’s ever met, well. Maybe she can make an exception for Clarke Griffin.
A Summer to Remember - aos_skimmons [Rated T, Modern-setting]
Clarke and her friends go to Florida for their summer vacation.
They’re only there for three weeks, but it’s summer and anything can happen. Right?
pump mud through my veins - wariangle [Rated E, Alternate Universe - Canon]
“No,” Clarke repeats, louder. She straightens, reaching her full height. They might be able to disregard the girl they remember, but Clarke, Keryon kom Heda kom Trikru, won’t be so easily dismissed. “I’m going out to meet them. They know me. You are a threat and will be treated as such. I can give you a respite, at the very least.”
And with that, she turns her back on them and marches out the room, out the Ark, to meet the oncoming army.
AU in which Clarke fell down from the sky by herself five years before the Ark comes crashing down.
Bloom/Ink - AvaRosier [Rated T, Modern-setting]
Flowers, like tattoos, carried a hidden meaning. A second language, if you will.
Or: the one where Clarke Griffin owns a tattoo studio next to Lexa’s flower shop, and it turns out the two aren’t so disparate after all.
carousel of time. - vulpixgrrrl [Not Rated, Modern-setting]
they’ve hated each other every summer they can remember, rivals since first session. But they’re finally camp counselors and it’s a whole new battle field.
Come Morning Light - onemilliongoldstars [Rated M, Alternate Universe - Canon]
Lexa loves Clarke with everything she posesses and she’s always thought it would be enough. She is wrong.
“When Clarke tells her she wants a baby, time stands still.”
Acting on your Best Behavior - fairytaleslayer [Rated T, Modern-setting]
Tumblr Prompt: “The skirt is short on purpose” High School AU
Clarke Griffin is a little shit, Lexa even more so, and they will defend each other fiercely
