Clarke entertains visitors at The Outpost and we learn a little more of Lexa’s past.

She could see the detective’s head tilting from side to side, slowly, as if she was taking her measure or something more, some curiosity that wasn’t about to be satisfied anytime soon. There was something so completely focused about it, something wanting and, perhaps, inevitable. It made her ache in places that, unbeknownst to her, brought out a silky longing in her voice, a layer of desire that emptied the room and made the walls feel as close as the warm, sweet breath she could imagine ghosting along the back of her neck.

whuts all the poll stuff? you dont poll

The ‘poll stuff’ is media companies, looking for clickbait, create popularity polls that pit popular ‘ships’ against one another and create unreal levels of cattiness amongst fandoms.  Considering how many of these ships are canon or ‘fanon’ f/f or m/m relationships, it’s arguable they are queerbait as well.  There is no real prize, nothing but the satisfaction of making (young) people quibble and quarrel over trivia while they rake in the cash.  

This time around, three f/f fandoms decided to support one another when it looked like there might be cheating.  I support them working together, but wish they’d ignore these ‘polls’ and do something that actually pushes the industry to make changes in its discriminatory practices in minority writing/representation. 

Better together

Since three f/f fandoms have now suddenly got together to decry possible bot cheating in a (Zimbio) poll, it would be super if they stuck together to trend and make a difference over better representation for minority characters (especially since two of those fandoms are for ‘fanon’ ships).
