and mind you, this is moments after clarke put her hand on lexa’s thigh and rubbed her thumb against her knee in comfort. but clarke touching lexa is always going to be welcomed by lexa, whereas she’s not sure where clarke stands on lexa touching her. and sure, she got a great insight into clarke’s head thanks to that drawing, but she doesn’t know for sure if it’s okay to cross that boundary because they haven’t talked about it yet. (they were about to, but then…)

contrasting the two back to back is fascinating because ADC plays lexa as not even batting an eye when clarke gives her comfort in a tactile way- hell, she leans into it, angling her body toward eliza. but when it’s lexa’s turn to give comfort, she plays lexa as far more hesitant of where to touch her. she allows lexa to show that her instinct is to touch clarke and that lexa wants to reciprocate the same comfort offered to her. but because lexa knows clarke isn’t there yet, that she isn’t ready, so ADC has her catch herself at the very last second.

Took me a while but finally put up a canon fic list as companion to my Clexa AU one - which can be found here.

Just like with the AU list, I update as I remember a particular fic / go through my bookmarks (please feel free to send me fic recs as well and I’ll add them)

Before I started journaling I was always stressed and directionless and maybe this sounds a bit silly but I am actually conquering my life now!

Here’s a useful link sent to me by @randomgirlusername because she knows I’m a crafty lady. I’ve already recruited 2 of my cousins to help me fill a box/pay for postage.

If you’re crafty or you know some who is, this list is helpful!! Every little bit helps!! They’ve even listed places to donate if you can’t see or knit or crochet.

Give it a look!! Spread the word!! Take action!!

(And for any followers who are Australian... one of the fabric listed is fannelette. Is that what Americans call flannel??)

Millions of hectares have burned, a dozen people have died, we’ve had our hottest day on record. More than four times the amount of land burned in California, nine times more than the Amazon. Flames taller than the Sydney Opera House.
