“You should be dead.” The words are spoken harshly, and with limited context. But there were few people still alive that Octavia hated more than Echo. She would kill her herself, if...

If she was not Bellamy’s lover. If Octavia killed Echo, her relationship with her brother would go down the drain. And since Bellamy was one of the few people she cared about, she wasn’t going to be the one to kill Echo.

      brows flared, eyes narrowed. she didn’t want to fight with him, not about this. “watch it murphy.” there were things she hadn’t told them about herself – or told the truth about. they had no real idea what she had been through and she wasn’t going to fight with him over who had it worse. “i’m trying to help you but if you want to be a dick, i’ll go find someone else to talk to.” she still felt out of place here but could find something to pass the time. she wanted to tell him no wounder he was having problems with emori but didn’t want to step over that line. “now are you going to play nicely or continue to be yourself?”

Algae never really got more appetizing the more you ate it. You got used to it, but that didn’t mean it tasted good. “Not really, but I thought I’d try.” Though, from the appearance of a smile on Echo’s lips, it seemed like it must have helped a little bit. She had just tried to show that she cared, to try and make her feel better. When Echo took the cup from her, she took a seat by her side. “Tell me if it’s good, maybe it’ll become my new thing,” Raven teased. She sure knew that they could use more creative ways to prepare it. “How’re you feeling?”

     Nightmares. That was all they were. All they ever really were in his mind, when his eyes closed from exhaustion and he couldn't stay awake any longer. Sleep never held his hand for long, however. It never wrapped him up in blankets like other people or let him slumber the way most people could, despite the world around them, curled up in bed, or next to their lover, their family, and slept through the night. In truth, Bellamy had never really slept like that, even as a kid, especially as a kid. Octavia had always been his number one priority and sleeping like a rock meant possibly missing someone wanting to barge in to their loft, catching that he was not an only child and in fact, had a sister. He runs the back of his hand over his forehead as he wanders the woods, alone. The sky was speckled with stars the same way his features were in the sunlight. Bellamy had his pistol on his side. Had his makeshift blade in his belt and honestly, he knew better than to think he was alone, yet, he had hoped he was.

"If you're going to follow me, you might as fucking well join me for a walk," there's a pause on his lips and he throws a slight look over his shoulder. There's no smile upon worn lips and his eyes shown just how tired he truly was. "I could use the company anyways."

“I just got Fox to lay down.” Lou says quietly before making her way over to Echo and smiling. “You know what that means- we have some time to ourselves.”

    It was weird, to say the least. For six years they have been stuck up there together and despite if they wanted it or not, they grew closer to each other. They became a family. While they were back on Earth it was still difficult, but at least they were there to look out for each other. It wasn’t like they weren’t doing that anymore, but things changed. Monty and Harper were gone, leaving a gaping hole in all their hearts. But it didn’t stop there.

   Since they got to Sanctum she has seen less and less of her friends. It was exhausting, not just to grief the friends they lost and deal with whatever this planet threw at them, but at the same time making sure their didn’t break their promise to Monty to do better this time and also trying to keep everyone safe.
