Inspired by “25 Lives” poem by Tongari.

Blake and Yang are both Beauty and the Beast Blake: Belladonna, love reading books (Belle); cat faunus (Beast) Yang: love adventure (Belle); temper tantrum (Beast)

The love 

The fight

Adam = Jealousy Gaston

it’s so frustrating that bumbleby shares so many moments and romantic tropes that if it was a m/f couple everyone would see it as clear as the sun. If one of our beloved girls were a boy, all the looks and hand handings would be seeing as something romantic, they would say (as we do) that it is love without even thinking, but NO, since they are both girls, of course that it is just some platonic thing or a friend support .

I love bumbleby and the fact that it’s is a healthy wlw relationship is just ONE of the many reasons. They complement each other so perfectly that it’s kinda unfair not just the color schemes, how good they look next to each other or their personalities.

Blake is a stealth ninja while Yang is this berserker fighting type;

Blake mirror the moon and the night while Yang is the brighter sun;

Blake was that mood “emo” girl and Yang was that flashy funny girl;

Blake was used to run way while Yang had abandonament issues;

There are so many parallels between those two especially the beauty and the beast ones.

My point is: They are just perfect for each other, both of them make the other grown as a person, as a partner and as a friend. They are there for each other now, and are PROTECTING  each other.

I love them not just becase they are both girls, like there are some people telling to us. But because make sense, because in a storytelling point of view make sense, because they are perfect for each other, they complemente each other and they love each other.

if one of them were a man, I would still ship them, like I do for ReNora, Arkos and SnowBird BECAUSE FUKING MAKE SENSE, I would just find another wlw ship in the show (Just give Ilia a girlfriend who loves her RT, just do it). So yeah, It’s FUKING FRUSTRATING AND INFURIATING that people think that way. 

This is all from a fandom that had our ship for 2 years. #LookWhatWe’veDone

“Lexa was the one for her.” “Lexa was her soulmate.” “Lexa was the love of her life.” “Clarke will never love anyone the way she loved Lexa.” “Clarke will always be grieving Lexa.” - Eliza Taylor (Clarke Griffin herself). Clexa didn’t just kiss, they didn’t hook up, they made love. Doesn’t get more canon than that :) 

It’s more than a fandom, it’s the lgbtq community. Multiple full size billboards were put up, bringing attention to the “Bury your gays” trope. Unlike others who only think about themselves, we actually did something positive in the real world to benefit the lgbtq community, we helped raise over $162,500 in charity for the Trevor Project. We got the television industry to recognize their use of tropes and inspired The Lexa Pledge by showrunners to do right by their LGBT audience. We got “LGBT Fans Deserve Better” trending worldwide, staying in the top 10 for hours with over 276K tweets.

We trended worldwide 55 times in the weeks following Lexa’s death. Fans from all around the globe were devastated. “Lexa Deserved Better” spread across the world with hundreds of fans sharing their pictures from more than 200 cities and over 55 countries.

We dominate in the polls, there’s no other way to describe our 47 poll wins so far, and 7 more polls we’re currently leading. Did I mention we only had our ship for a total of 15 episodes, plus the fact that alot of these polls were won with “half our ship dead” as haters like to point out… just shows how powerful Clexakru is because we continue to win even with fandoms teaming up against us Lol It’s been nearly a full year since Lexa died and we’re still winning polls :D

Me: Okay Google, what is “extra”? - Google: The Clexa Fandom.

Yes, we legit made up an entirely new character, Elyza Lex, and ship her with Alycia’s character on Fear, Alicia Clark, to make our spinoff ship Lexark and dubbed the show “Queer the Walking Dead”. Working with the Clexa material we got in the short time span, we built an empire on fanfics, fanart, comics, etc, created by some of the most talented fans. Plus all of the character social media accounts, if you’re not following @confusedlexa on Twitter you are seriously missing out :D Meanwhile we made Jason Rottenassberg’s follower count drop faster than The Loo ratings. The outrage at The Loo isn’t just limited to our fandom, it’s shown by the many articles written labeling The Loo as one of the worst shows of 2016. It’s days before the season premier and the public is still dragging the show, it’s won polls for “Biggest Disappointment”, “Show You Gave Up On”, and more… talk about karma ;) Eliza’s openly asked fans for Clexa fic recs and admitted that her mother has a Lexark picture in her home. We really couldn’t have a more dedicated Captain of the Bitanic, a year later she’s still the biggest Clexa shipper <3 As if that wasn’t enough, how many characters have such an iconic look that they got their own SnapChat filter and Sims makeup? And to top it all off, we have a star, a real star in the sky!

With just 2 brief mentions, we made Costia into more than just a name, we brought her to life, unofficially decided to cast Nathalie Emmanuel for the role, and headcanon Lexa’s first love as a beautiful sapphic woman of color. 

We have Elycia, Eliza & Alycia, BFF’s in real life. Without them, we wouldn’t have Clexa. Alycia’s moved on to a better show, like many other cast members have done. Eliza will move on to bigger and better things as well when The Loo gets cancelled and she’ll finally be free from all the … “shit” ;)

Clarke Griffin, Wanheda, The Ambassador of the 13th clan, Klark kom Skaikru, Fleimkepa, Leader of the ungrateful sky brats <3 “You bring them justice.” “I know you’re just trying to help.” - Lexa to Clarke. “Clarke elevates herself… she’s special.” - Lexa to Titus about Clarke. Lexa was the only person who never berated, belittled, or blamed Clarke.

Lexa, Heda, The Commander of the 12 clans, Leksa kom Trikru, Soulmate of Clarke Griffin, also known as Alexandria Woods in fanfics <3 “I want you!”, “I love you.”- Clarke to Lexa. “We loved her.”- Aden to Clarke about Lexa. The girl who was taught “love is weakness”, was loved by many.

This is just too amazing not to include, check out @miselizasjane Grounders trailer. Things like that are why I’m so into this fandom and always will be. I have other wlw ships, some of them I really love and have shipped for years, some more recently. But none of them mean more to me than Clexa, I’ll always be Clexakru, because it’s about so much more than just a ship or a show.
