But Clarke asks Bellamy if he can forgive himself and he doesn’t answer, says that forgiveness is hard for them instead but then goes right on to say that he doesn’t want to be angry at her anymore.
I won’t forgive myself but I forgive you. They will be the death of me.
SALLY: I'm not sure I trust these California types. The Roman Hera basically kidnapped you, then the legion sent you and your friends off with no supplies, and then they elected a leader who was going to have you all executed. Frank and Hazel seem all right but maybe you and Annabeth shouldn't go and live with--
PERCY: They're giving me a full ride to college.
SALLY: AVE ROMANA!

All season, we’ve had many, many shots of Clarke from over Bellamys shoulder.
Right from the very first reunion hug, they shot her face from over his shoulder. But at this point they are facing each other.
It’s only after he tries to get her to open up at the campfire, and she doesn’t,
the shots are then filmed from over his shoulder, but his back is turned to her. (Or could it be the arrival of his girlfriend?)
Anyway, there’s a lot of them. She’s always there, that’s the way they chose to frame it, as if she’s always in the back of his mind.
We all know the infamous over Bellamys shoulder shot of Clarke, reacting to the first time she sees Bellamy and Echo kiss.
Then there’s Clarke making a deal with Diyoza in 5x07:
They also film her from over his shoulder as he walks away from her in 5x09, leaving her screaming for him as he’s on his way to give Madi the flame.
They use it a lot. But he never turns back to look at her.
Not until this moment.
Above, here Clarke is again, over Bellamys shoulder in 5x13. This is when Madi decides to go and talk to him. And then she tells him. About the radio calls, about how much Clarke cares, and finally, he turns to look at her.
He’s finally ready to look at her, and acknowledge that she’s always there, in the back of his mind.
Again, as time is running out and they are waiting for their friends, as Clarke calls for him, they film her over his shoulder. Again, he turns to look at her, and tells her exactly why he can’t go. He can’t do it again. It was too painful.
Later, when they’re safe, he lets her know she’s forgiven and asks her to come to the bridge. But as he walks away, again, he looks back over his shoulder at her.
Like he wants to say something.
And again, once more, on the bridge, there she is. She’s there because he asked her to be. He needs her there.
And the final ending shot, over both their shoulders, of their new world. Bellamy is the one that brings her in towards him.
Sorry for the crappy screenshots, but I thought this was worth throwing out there, it’s a very interesting framing choice! If anyone finds any more let me know, I’ll add them to the list!

in two days percy jackson will be over
in two days my life will be over
But no, can we talk about how timid mousy little Tessa Gray took not one, but TWO virginities, both from some of the hottest Shadowhunters in all of Shadowhunter history, and not only that, they just happen to be PARABATAI, and she still manages to marry both of them without it being scandalous. TESSA GRAY, MY FRIENDS!
They were infinite. They were the beginning and the ending; they were eternity. The king standing before them gaped as the shield of flame died out to reveal Aelin and Dorian, hand in hand. glowing like newborn gods as their magic entwined.
Will, upon Matthew’s arrival at the institute: Okay kid, if you’re going to be a part of this family, you have to be put on rotation for the Weekly Sacrifice
Matthew: The what?
James: Each week, one of us has to pretend to be sick so that he can call Brother Zachariah over.
Will: You’re the newcomer, so it’s your turn, and-
Matthew, having crawled into bed, shivering under blankets, wailing: CALL THE BROTHERS, I AM MOST VILELY ILL!!!
James: A common cold would suffice…
Matthew: I HAVE DROPSY! DEATH IS IMMINENT! AH, DEAR LOST YOUTH
Will: …Excessive. I like it.
