Clexa prompt. Clarke is the weather girl at the local tv station, when a new young sports reporter, (Lexa Woods, an all-star soccer player with a career-ending injury) starts her first day an has trouble speaking in her presence.
Clarke had heard talk around the network offices that they would begetting a new Sports reporter, normally that wouldnât even piqueher interest as every other sports reporter that theyâd had hadbeen at least marginally sexist. She had heard a few of the guys inthe office scoffing at the rumours that the new sports reporter was awoman, sheâd even heard a couple of them saying things like âwhatdo women know about sportsâ, which had caused her to roll her eyesso hard that they nearly fell out of her head.
Granted, Clarke didnât pay that much attention to sports herself,but sheâd always had an interest in womenâs soccer ever since oneof her best friends in High School, Octavia, took up the sport.Octavia and Raven even dragged her out to games occasionally and shedidnât hate it.
Clarke was just finishing her coffee when she glanced across the newsoffice to see Raven showing the new sports reporter around. Shealmost choked on her drink when she realised who it was, theremaining coffee definitely went down the wrong way when the woman inquestion met her eyes.
Lexa Woods, rising star of the USNWT, or at least she had been beforea nasty injury brought her career to a premature end. A tackle duringa game, that Clarke may or may not have been watching from thecomfort of her sofa while shouting at the ref, caused an acl blowout.
Clarke had finally got her mild coughing fit, due to the coffee andnot at all due to the beautiful woman that her best friend wasleading in her direction, under control just in time.
âClarke,â Raven said, that regular mischievous glint in her eyes,âIâm just giving Lexa here the full tour before she startsworking here. Lexa, this is our prime time weather presentor ClarkeGriffin.â
âHey.â Lexa said, a small smile on her lips as she looked atClarke, âI think weâre going to be working the same time slots.â
âHi.â Clarke responded, unable to get her brain to actually forma complete sentence, âand⌠I⌠er⌠yeah.â
Clarke had obviously watched Lexa play, sheâd also seen all of themagazine covers and interviews, but her brain decided that actuallytalking to her was the moment that it was going to short circuit. Sheknew Lexa was more than slightly attractive, but she hadnâtrealised just how attractive.
âRightâŚâ Raven said, drawing out the word as pure amusementlaced her voice, âweâll just move on to the next part of thetour, and maybe next time you two meet Clarkely here will rememberhow to use words.â
âIt was nice to meet you, Clarke.â Lexa said, that same smilestill firmly in place, though she was certainly a little moreentertained than she expected to be on her first day at her new job.
Clarke could feel her face burning as she nodded her head. Mutteringto herself about how Raven was an asshole and how a heads up wouldâvebeen nice. Only realising that Lexa had heard her when their eyes metagain as Lexa glanced back at her, the smile on her lips nowresembling more of a smirk.
Clarke couldnât help but hope that when it came time to do theweather report, right after Lexa had done the sports update, that shecould string her words together and didnât become a stutteringmess.

I asked you awhile back if you were still salty about Lexa (Clexa) and your reply was of course yes. Now, Jason Rot has done a 3-hour interview (Podcast) I believe with Autostraddle and is at it again. One rough quote, "Seeing ppl outrage by certain stories (s3) is also fascinating, it tells me more about the ppl than me." Just reading this makes my blood boil. There's more but I don't have the stomach for it.
I think itâs this podcast perhaps? https://m.soundcloud.com/meta-station/jason-rothenberg-returns-to-meta-station
I havenât listened to it because my stress levels are high enough already but we should just ignore whatever that fud has to say.
Thanks! Tender and hushed are pretty close equivalents, as is âquietâ, I remembered later. Â

âOkay, where are we on inventing more synonyms for âsoftlyâ?? ...â
As Lexa sings in a choir, she'd be familiar with terms like 'dolce' (sweetly) or pianissimo (very gently), con amore (with love).
OKAY I LOVE THAT. One day, if I write a mwtw!Lexa POV, I would def include those as a mini-theme. Trying to figure out how I can get them in from a non-musical POV, but where thereâs a will, thereâs a way.Â

Yeyyy more Mwtw !!!! Gently, lightly, tenderly, tenderly, delicately... Or use the french equivalent: 'en douceur' or 'doucement'
âDelicatelyâ is one I hadnât thought of âit might work well for some of the stickier situations! And the French is so wonderful, and Iâm glad you shared because I would have just translated that to âsweetlyâ and it sounds like thatâs not quite the contextual meaning. Thank you!!

I just wished fear people didn't dumb Alicia down just so Morgan of all people could be her mentor.
I still donât know why they brought Morgan into the show in the first place tbh, he bores me. Alicia could be a very complex character if the writers got their heads out of their asses.Â
This whole non-killing thing that sheâs doing could be some deeper darker psychological issue, her mind not being able to take it anymore, but Iâm not going to give the writers the credit of thinking thatâs what theyâre doing here.Â
