Jason: Clarke and Lexa aren’t soulmates.

Eliza:

Jason: Mentioning Lexa at Wondercon has been blacklisted. *doesn’t even mention Lexa’s name for the entire duration of the panel.*

Eliza: 

Jason: Clarke will have to suck it up and move on.

Eliza: 

Jason: I didn’t know it would hurt people this much

Eliza:

Jason: I thought it was the best episode yet.

Eliza:

In summing up, you can tell Eliza Taylor is just as unhappy with how 307 went as we are. She didn’t want to be there, that much is obvious, but instead of spewing out rehearsed lines about ‘Clarke’s love life in the future’ she was honest, and supported us wholeheartedly. In summing up part two, we don’t deserve such a terrific human and I am so grateful she spoke up on behalf of the fanbase.

Anonymous asked: Remember Kim saying something and then saying lunexa what do u make of this

She said this all the way back in April 2015 time bc i wrote a post about it. And I kinda hate myself for the last little ‘bit’ i wrote about happy if it is a plot point…here is the post: 

… and this actually makes more sense that i am comfortable with. Lunexa = Luna being implanted with the chip. Don’t take with Clexa = bad side effects. Clarke is trying to find Luna to put the chip in her to fix her depression. There are a lot more conclusions you could draw from this analogy too.

Oh boy, so I have received multiple asks asking for my opinion on the accusations about the finale. There are so many I am just going to use this one to kinda be the ‘jumping off’ point for writing about this. 

If you are shaking your head at all of the ‘panic’ and hatred being created due to what is being said by a ‘source’ (that can’t be determined as legitimate or not) as fact, then I am right there with you. All these accusations are doing is fueling hatred towards the show and causing anxiety. It seems like the hatred is what has fueled the movement so far, and it is suspicious to me that these things about the finale are keeping the hatred alive. Of course, these could be truthful claims, but I just find it suspicious. I find it suspicious that a lot of these claims have been brought to light after Jason’s open letter and Code307 not trending. Call me a cynic, but I look at situation from all angles and it seems like this whole thing is only being looked at from one angle. An angle that fuels hatred and is keeping negativity and hatred towards this show alive. All of these claims are from sources that we can’t prove the validity to. I know that me looking at these accusations from this angle might look like I’m not supporting the LGBT Fan Deserve Better movement, which isn’t the case. I am very supportive of the movement. I just want the movement to be fueled by respectful passion and not hatred. And most definitely not by false accusations. 

Okay, where do I begin, how about with definitions. When I say ‘new finale’ I am talking about this revision being written from what was initially ‘broke’ in the writers room over the summer. I think that the first half of the season was already filmed and written before these changes to the finale were made. It is in these episodes that there were post-production changes to fit in with this ‘new finale’. This finale was always the finale. It is ‘new’ because it wasn’t what the initial plan for the season. Jason may have had an epiphany moment and decided to change the story, but things were already filmed and had to fit the new vision he had in with what was previously shot. He was able to fit this new finale into the story by making a few ‘tweaks’ to the story (things like ‘quia nunc vale’ = goodbye for now). The ‘new finale’ isn’t a change from what was filled in Vancouver. What was filmed in Vancouver IS the new finale. Does that make sense? 

Now, let’s go to the quote you provided me: “The new finale is the worst thing I believe Jason could have done to Clexa fans.” People have jumped to the conclusion that Clarke loses her memories of Lexa, Clexa is used to make a canon Be|larke, or the Vancouver Clexa scenes will be cut from the finale. People believe that Jason has changed the finale and cut all these scenes out of spite for how the fandom reacted. However, if you go with my definition of the ‘new finale’ this should help negate all these fears. Also, are you serious? No matter how much you want to believe that Jason is out to get the queer community…he is not. Jason is NOT evil, he just made mistakes and handled things very poorly.  

Additionally, getting rid of the Clexa scenes would be be career suicide. One of the accusations for ‘queerbaiting’ has been inviting fans out to watch in Vancouver. If he got rid of these scenes that would look so bad on him and everything that the fandom has claimed would be true. Everything filmed in Vancouver would be seen as malicious. Now, to me, inviting fans to watch the finale was to let the fans know that 3x07 wasn’t the last time we will see Lexa. This may be seen as baiting to many people, which it kind of is…but I don’t think this was done with malicious intent as many are painting it to be. I think it was to ‘spoil’ by “not spoiling” that Lexa is going to be in the finale – that Lexa and Clexa are important to this story. That what happened in 3x07 is not the end…love is not weakness. Now, what was coming out of Vancouver were technically spoilers and leaks and we were open to interpret the spoiler leaks as we wanted. I theorized that Lexa was alive in the real reality and was drawing Clarke out of the City of Light. This was my own theory that gave me hope that Lexa was alive. Due to my theorizing that Lexa was alive in the Vancouver leaks, I allowed myself to not think she was going to die mid season. So, I was even more blindsided due to seeing the Vancouver Leaks. However, I did think it was a high probability that she might die at the end of the finale, or she would be in a ‘is she dead, or isn’t she’ kind of thing.  

Is the worst thing I believe Jason could have done to Clexa fans. This is this person’s opinion.  This ‘open-ended’ ending for Lexa could be seen as another Delphine Orphan Black moment where the audience doesn’t know if she will be back or not. The reason for leaving Lexa’s storyline open would be to keep her in the story, but have her in the story in an ‘off-screen’ way. The initial plan may have just been to write Lexa out of the story after 3x07, but then Jason decided to bring her back possibly for a season 4 if ADC’s schedule would allow it. However, they would be able to continue the story if ADC wasn’t able to film for particular dates. Now, I will admit my own personal bias that I want this ending. I want there to be a possibility that Lexa and ADC will be part of the show. I want to see Lexa again. I want to see ADC play Lexa even if it is in this AI form. 

As I have mentioned in a previous post, your brain is who you are, and Lexa’s consciousness is still alive inside the AI. Also, your brain is what processes what you feel physically. The ‘normal’ way that people feel these stimulis are from certain body parts taking in infomation and then these signals travel to your brain and are interpreted. A person only feels these things when the brain interprets the messages. To put this in simpler terms, think about when you are dreaming and how things can feel very real. You can touch things, taste, smell, etc. However, in this instance it is your brain creating these manifestations due to you dreaming you aren’t physically interacting or touching things. In the COL you aren’t dreaming, but it is a different reality. You aren’t the one creating these signals, they are being transmitted to you from another person – it is a direct line – a telepathic connection of sorts. The AI is the neuron synapse that is relaying signals from one consciousness to the other. Lexa’s consciousness has been downloaded onto the AI and is sending and receiving signals from Clarke’s own consciousness. They are able to feel each other and talk to each other without touching each other on earth. The body is only a vessel for the human to take in these signals through body parts. That probably just confused the hell out of you…oops. lol.

Lexa would be in the story, but in an off-screen way. Now, I can see Lexa’s “The dead are gone, the living are hungry” fall into play in season 4. It would be very interesting if season 4 dove into the problems/benefits of having these two realities. In one reality a person’s physical needs to stay alive are met, but in this other reality the person’s emotional needs are met. Idk, but leaving Lexa alive off screen seems like the best course of action. 

This show got an early renewal. Therefore, there has to be something that happens (like what I am presenting in this post) that will retain the audience and negate some of the damage that has been done.  With the ‘open-ended’ finale, ADC might not know if she is coming back or not. Therefore, when she said at Payley Fest “I’m going to miss being on the show, I promise you that.” she is saying that because it is uncertain if her character will be back, or if they will have her in the show in this ‘off-screen’ way indefinitely. If Clarke is connected to the AI at the end of season 3, the audience will know that Clarke is comforted by Lexa and possibly converses with her still. Clexa isn’t dead. Clexa is eternal. However, it will SUCK not seeing Clexa on screen if this is the case, but it would comfort me knowing that Clarke is not alone and Lexa is still there supporting her.   

However, all this being said, I don’t want to give you any false hope.  I just hope that this post gives you a little perspective. Gives you perspective to not automatically assume the worst. I am seeing way too many people get upset about things that can’t be proven as true. Also, all of these opinions are subjective. You may think that leaving Lexa’s return for a season 4 open is a good thing, while others will see it as baiting and malicious. My advice is just let the story play out, and get upset once something bad happens. Making all of these preconceived accusations is just fueling hatred and anxiety.

OMG i didn’t notice the tear that fell from Titus’s eyes after Ontari kicked over the bag. He loved them and that was all he was holding onto for killing Lexa…someone he also loved.  

“She murdered those kids, children you raised.”

Sacred Things

In the show, the word ‘sacred’ has been used to describe two thing 1) the infinity symbol, and 2) Ascension Day. These two things are linked to Becca, the AI program, and Polaris Station. The infinity symbol is a company logo; a company that Becca was the owner she was also the owner of Polaris Station. This symbol is on both ALIE 1.0’s mainframe and chips and on the and ALIE 2.0’s device. As for Ascension Day, this is the day that celebrates Becca becoming the First Commander. We can estimate that Ascension Day is around mid-March/ early-April, and Unity Day (the day Becca came to earth and when the stations joined) around mid-to-end of September.  Therefore, Becca was recognized as Commander about 5-6 months after she came down to Earth. The ‘sacred Ascension Day’ (that occurred in episode 3.07) celebrates the day the First Commander was recognized and ascended, but then every Commander after that has their own ascension day. “I got it (the back tattoo) on my ascension day.”

Now, why is it called ‘Ascension Day’? First, and probably the most obvious, is that it is referring to someone rising up to the most powerful position of Commander. But, I think that the name also comes from the company saying to seek higher things…’to ascend’. This saying, along with the company logo, is printed on the parachute of the pod that is inside Titus’s lair. The color associated with this parachute also holds importance and is scene in relation to Trikru and Lexa. The orange color of the parachute is very similar to the orange sash that Lexa’s wears and the sashes that the Polis Sentries wear. In addition, the parachute has a orange and blue color scheme that is also on the Trikru Clan flag.  Therefore, I believe that this orange color is also seen as ‘sacred’.

I think that Becca was recognized as Commander after she created the first Nighbloods by using the syringes of ‘Nightblood serum’.  We see Becca bring the briefcase that has the Nigblood serum and injector in it with her as she gets in the pod.   We saw her injecting herself with the serum before she implanted herself with ALIE 2.0. It looks like Becca performed multiple tests on herself to perfect the serum.  I believe that the Nightblood serum is gene therapy.  I think the serum protects against radiation and protect the AI from ALIE 2.0. I believe tf protects against radiation because Becca’s suit was ripped and she was fine. We also see that the survivors that approached her were wearing hazmat suits.

Becca was most likely seen as a ‘god sent’ when she came down with the vials of Nightblood and was able to exist on the radiation soaked earth without a suit. The paintings in Titus’s lair shows how mystic Becca was to these people when she emerged from the pod – she is shown to be ‘the savior’.  The images on the wall show a woman emerging from pod, as well as being surrounded by the first Nightbloods. She is the one that created the first Nightbloods by injecting them with the serum she brought down.  These injections protected them against the radiation, and it also is a ‘‘safeguard’ against ALIE 1.0 (discussed in another section).  I believe that this serum attaches itself onto the person’s genetic code and it then allows their offspring to also potentially have this ‘mutation’.  But, Nightbloods reproduce with non-nightbloods and causes not all offspring of ‘Nightbloods’ be Nightbloods themselves – it is a recessive gene.

The ECHO and the AI

I have rewatched episode 7 multiple times trying to look for clues about ALIE 2.0  and how to explain the Vancouver Leaks. Upon rewatching, there were two things that caught my attention 1) the words said by Becca and Titus to the AI that had no subtitles, and 2) the weird audio ‘echo’ that went with those words. So, I was on a quest to figure out what Becca and Titus said to ALIE 2.0.  I then turned to David Peterson’s Tumblr thinking that it was something he created – thinking it was Trigedasleng – but, I quickly found out that he had no idea. He did think it was Latin and asked his Latin expert friend to translate it.  After they were sent an audio clip of both Titus and Becca saying it, they believe that Titus and Becca said quia nunc vale.

Okay, now what does it mean? Well, it does NOT mean what Javi wrote in this post. He believes that the Latin translation is ‘seek higher things’ – the company catch phrase. So, if that is NOT what was said and written by the writer of the episode…what does it mean? What does “quia nunc vale” mean? *drum roll* It means GOODBYE FOR NOW. (Yep, if you just had a OMG OMG OMG!!! moment…you were not alone….I was there and that is what made me excited to theorize again.) So, why does the writer of the episode not know what was actually said in canon? I think that this was a post-production change.
