“ clarke ! ” he knows they’re busy ; knows they need to be ready to work whenever raven manages to construct her plan to get them back into space . but there’s a certain pressure brought about by the end of the world that has murphy itching to say his piece . discomfort is apparent in the expression upon his features , and the silence after he calls her name . gaze shifts off to the side for a brief moment while he collects his thoughts , before deep blues find her once more . determination lingers within them , despite the apprehension that snakes between his ribs .
“ i -------- wanted to thank you . ” despite how his gaze cries out to slip away , he remains focused ; attempting to analyse her response . “ for . . . saving emori’s life . ” john himself isn’t entirely confident that he would have sacrificed himself to save her . they don’t call him the cockroach for nothing ! “ twice , ” he recalls , accompanied by an almost incredulous laugh . it seems like so long ago clarke had taken luna’s blood in emori’s place . “ so . . . thank you . ”
