“So what I’m trying to say is you should text me back. Because there’s a precedent. Because there’s an urgency. Because there’s a bedtime. Because when the world ends I might not have my phone charged and If you don’t respond soon, I won’t know if you’d wanna leave your shadow next to mine.”

Workout For Daily Life
Reblogging for the neck pain ones… whoa Nelly, do I ever get the most killer neck pains.
Enemies to “ugh I can’t believe I’m saving your life” to “ugh we have to work together or the world ends but it’s not like I like you or anything” to “oh we actually connect pretty well but that doesn’t mean anything” to “I would die for you but don’t read too much into it” to “I’ll kill anyone who lays a finger on you” to Lovers.

Clexa really was THAT ship
#i have a /lot/ of feelings about this #like the total INSTANT PROTECTIVENESS of lexa my GOd #and clarke pushing her away immediately #like; part of that had to do with lexa yes #but it was more abt herself #emerson brings up all this shit she’s tried to get over #but it’s still there #right under the surface #and she’s angry and scared and hurt and embarrassed #so her first instinct is to push away and retreat into herself #after IMMEDIATELY rushing and touching/comforting lexa moments before#she can’t handle it herself #and lexa just… let’s go #right away #it reminds me of the look on her face when clarke spit at her #disgust; shock; acceptance all in one go #same right here#look at her #shock; hurt; acceptance #bc lexa respects every single boundary that clarke puts up #even tho it hurts her p much each time #fuuuuuuuuckk #i have so many feelings about these two (via banrions)
i could write a whole essay on ADC’s choices for lexa’s body language when it comes to clarke’s personal space, but my favorite thing about her choices here is that her hand hovers over clarke’s hip. like even before clarke brushes her away, she’s already anticipating that clarke might not want her to touch her.
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.
her hand hovers near clarke’s hip, and when clarke brushes her away, she pulls her hands away immediately without question. ADC’s choices in how lexa operates inside of clarke’s personal space just read as so consistently respectful. i LOVE it.
CLEXA (canon fic list)
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)

This is so great for people with hypochondriasis! This is a rough time for everyone but we don't need people like me getting all anxious over nothing and clogging the system.
If you can’t breathe, go to the hospital. If you can, drink some tea and get cozy with Netflix. (And take appropriate hygiene procedures like staying away from public spaces and vulnerable loved ones, etc.) Much love to other people with health anxiety, try to keep it simple.
lexa buys (a) fish.
Classic. Who could forget?
The og post that confused every hetero ever born 😌
Four years later, and I still love Lexa and miss Lexa as strongly as I did on March 3, 2015. For me, she was a character unlike any other, one that had a profound impact on my life and my personal growth, and I will forever be grateful for her presence, however brief it may have been.
Reshop, Heda. Yu gonplei ste odon.
… And she lived happily ever after …
I recently started journaling and for some reason I feel a lot less anxious and I get things done?
Taking a few minutes out of your day to journal is a great mindfulness practice that helps you focus your thoughts, reduce stress, and help you achieve your goals! Not many people do it because it looks like you are wasting your time but it saves so much time and makes your life so much better! I recommend all my followers to buy a journal and keep up the practice for at least a week. You will notice a positive change in your life. Guaranteed!
If you are more like me and don’t like staring at a blank page then please check out the Morning Sidekick Journal by Habitnest! I got my journal during their Kickstarter campaign and have been using it ever since! It’s a journal that helps you implement healthy habits and win your morning. They also have other journals for meditation, nutrition, and weightlifting. But just look at this <3
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!
Check out their website here: habitnest.com
I LOVE IT!
Journaling is one of the best habits to have because it makes implementing other habits a lot easier. It keeps your focussed.
Here is a list of habits that could improve your life (with links):
Where has this been all my life
It’s been awhile, but I just think you all should know that I still very much miss Lexa kom Trikru and Clexa still owns my heart.

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