Summary
“Raven is worried about you.” Bellamy says from the kitchen, where he is making dinner. “Said you’re shutting her out.”
“I’m not!” She’s sitting on the couch, legs tucked under herself, some Netflix show on that she’s only marginally aware of. “I tried telling her that today, but you know how Raven is when she thinks she’s on to something.”
Clarke hears his huffed laugh, soft, and the ends of her lips curl up as well.
“Yeah, I know,” he agrees, easy, “but you should try to give her something.”
“Why isn’t she worried about you?”
“Because I already got drunk on her couch, sobbed all over her and puked on her shower, so I’m recovering or something.”
(OR: The Modern!AU in which we deal with Clarke's depression and its effects. Kind of.)

Summary
“Alright,” she forced herself to keep her tone neutral, “do you want a welcome to the team party? Maybe some cake? Or can I get back to my actual work here, now?”
Bellamy’s jaw muscle jumped; the effort of keeping his mouth shut clear. He narrowed his eyes at her and, for a minute, Clarke believed he was going to throw professional courtesy out of the window and just tell her to go fuck herself.
(Not that she didn’t deserve it. Even as antisocial as Clarke tended to be, real bitch wasn’t a thing people used to say about her outside courtrooms)
When he spoke again, however, his voice was just as mellifluous as before, sarcasm and bitterness dripping from his tongue like honey droplets; a pomegranate-sweet kind of venom.
The deep, electrifying plunge of the fall. Lethal.
“I’d never want to hold you back from such important matters, princess .”
(OR: AU where they're both lawyers who work at the same Law Firm and play a perpetual hating game. Until they're assigned a case together.)

Summary
The day his mother dies, Bellamy Blake discovers his little sister is a witch.
It’s not that he didn’t know that there was something different – special – about Octavia before. Her cuts and bruises would heal too fast, her pleadings were always a little bit too convincing and sometimes, when she got really mad, Bellamy could swear he could hear thunder roaring in the distance. But the day Aurora Blake dies Octavia screams and every glass window pane in their rusty old house shatters with the force of her pain.
That’s when Bellamy knows they have to move.
That’s when Bellamy knows they have to find a coven.
(Or: Urban Fantasy/Witches!AU where Clarke's the head of the Sky Crew Coven and Octavia thinks she doesn't need it, Bellamy's just being a dork and overthinking this - as always.)

Summary
If there’s one thing the universe knows how to do is throw people against each other. Sometimes the timing is awful, sometimes the timing is just right. It never matters, in the end they always explode, be it with the blinding light of a newborn star, or the quiet of words left unspoken of a dying one.
The first time Clarke Griffin is thrown against Bellamy Blake is quite literal.
(OR: Clarke goes to Paris after a bad break up in an exchange arts program. It must be bad luck that, when she rents a room at Aurora Blake's, she gets one Bellamy Blake)

Summary
Prompt: Bellarke Hogwarts!AU
It was hate at first sight.
She was an impressionable eleven-year old girl – filled with the appropriate barely-contained excitement and bubbling joy that comes with being a first year – who had just been told Gryffindors are evil. Ok, maybe she was told they were “self-entitled pricks with a fucking hero-in-shiny-armour complex”, but, as smart as Clarke was, she was not sure she got the proper meaning of it.
Of course, Clarke didn’t quite believe it at first – how could a whole house be evil? An esteemed Hogwarts house no less? Her father’s house -, but maybe now she was starting to understand.
The realization hit her in the form of Bellamy Blake.
(Or Bellamy and Clarke meet in Hogwarts and end up leading the resistance against Lord Wallace together. The hundredth Hogwarts!AU no one asked for)

Summary
“You’re Jordan’s wife?”
If anyone in their town would’ve gone out looking for a foreign beauty, it would’ve been Jordie. He had an adventurer’s spirit, bold and daring. If Maja squinted at the old rope swing by the lake, she could still see the silhouette of him, leaping into the water while Kasper worried from his perch on the banks.
But Inej’s face freezes in an odd expression. “Not quite,” she says haltingly. “I’m married to his younger brother – Kaz?”
---
Or, the town of Lij is endlessly fascinated with the mysterious Mr. and Mrs. Rietveld each and every time they visit.

Summary
"Adora─" a slow blink. Catra reaches for Adora's head, holding her gently with both hands as she presses their foreheads together. Adora's breath catches in her throat. "I never said─" she closes her eyes, "thank you. For getting me out of there."
