i don’t understand why t100 s5 is so unpopular in fandom because imo it was easily the best written season of the entire series??? i mean

• everyone’s six year glowup was fantastic. all the characters looked really attractive. clarke, kabby (their whole aging gray hair thing was hot even if they became totally unbearable hypocrites), octavia, diyoza and mccreary, spacekru… also BELLAMY’S BEARD???? hello that was awesome he truly leaned into his Cheer Dad personality
• becho was one of the sweetest and healthiest relationships. lack of flashback/spacekru centric ep aside (my only complaint about s5 tbh), they got through their past differences together, in an environment where they weren’t in any significant danger or participated in opposite sides of a war (which lbr was the only reason their dynamic was “unhealthy” in the first place), and they were able to prioritize their mental health and become real friends who shared things about themselves
• bloodreina and diyoza were the best villains ever??? their ice cold bad bitches personalities were so fascinating to watch onscreen. i get that octavia is unpopular because of her treatment of bell in s5 but as a character she totally POPPED (also wonkru’s whole blood cult thing and eligius being full of sociopathic war criminals was great entertainment material, and part of what made my s5 watching experience so enjoyable)
• spacekru slowly becoming fond of each other and transitioning into a found family over their six years together offscreen was amazing. their affection and loyalty towards each other was so heartwarming, they never cared about the war, or eligius vs octavia, only being reunited and spending time in each other’s company. plus the group’s banter/chemistry, the memori breakup + resulting angst/raven & emori friendship, bellamy being murphy’s Big Brother/bullying murphy into recognizing his self worth/respecting and valuing murphy’s input to the discussion (just murphamy’s developed friendship in general), marper being involved in the memori breakup because they care about their friends’ happiness, the echo/monty hug and echo/murphy friendship, emori comforting echo, bellamy refusing to leave raven behind, were also total highlights of the season
• k*bby betraying octavia immediately when given the chance and leaving her to deal with the consequences of the cannibalistic blood cult, abby torturing raven (a girl she dared to call “daughter) for the sake of an addiction she couldn’t control……. they finally revealed their true colors and it was glorious (and kinda sad because i could not stand them as characters anymore, although at least they remained consistent in their hypocrisy)
• cl*rke torturing her own friends to "protect” the daughter she placed a shock collar on (and being called out by the narrative for it/not being handed blanket forgiveness) was absolutely amazing
• mccreary and abby/diyoza (even kane) had ridiculous amounts of sexual tension, it was absurdly hot
• i love vincent, that cannibalist freak. he’s like a feral rabid pet and it was adorable (also he put kane’s life in danger which was hilarious, in the sense that it served as abby’s punishment)
• the aesthetic appeal of wonkru and their hunger games style feeding ritual, octavia’s tyranny, it was positively fucked up :D i also loved echo’s arc as a “spy,” subverting her inital role in the series (something that brought her so much vitriol from fandom) and using it for a positive purpose
• it was horrifying and gruesome and violent which automatically gives it five stars in my book 😌

• others have already said that peter is always the driver, which is never a point of contention. but whoever gets the aux is another story altogether. lucy prefers pop, susan likes indie, and edmund listens to soundtracks. peter has no idea what they’re talking about
• edmund is the type to like things ironically then get in too deep. the number of obscure facts stored in his brain never fails to astound the others
• edmund was pushed to run for student government but didnt like the extra work. even so, whenever there was some dialogue needed between the student body and the student government, he would represent the other students, especially if there was some injustice on their part
• susan is an excellent swimmer, to the point that her coach suggested she compete professionally. she settled for representing the school in swim meets, where peter, edmund, and lucy are avid supporters. they would make the most obnoxious glittery banners and scream their lungs out cheering for her
• peter doesn’t get the appeal of social media, but he does have a private tiktok where lucy sends him funny videos. susan only has instagram and she has highlights for book and show reviews, grwms, and study with mes. edmund goes on reddit and regularly argues with people about videogame lore
• peter and susan are head boy and head girl when the time comes. edmund revitalises the chess club, and it suddenly becomes a popular hobby among the kids in his year. lucy joins a local environmentalist organization and participates in a lot of tree-planting and donation drives
• susan’s classmates would have crushes on peter, either from seeing him on her instagram or seeing him when he picks her up from school. they would ask her to introduce him to them, and susan just smiles, knowing that peter is set on a boy named caspian from the neighboring school
• meanwhile, peter’s classmates that fancied susan would get shot down pretty quickly. one would joke about asking her out for a date, but peter’s glare was enough to shut them up. one of them that set his sights on edmund was the subject of particular vitriol
• edmund unwittingly led people on. he was a great conversationalist, which was often mistaken as flirting. and when he did flirt, no one could tell
• lucy and peter are painfully oblivious when someone is flirting with them. susan and edmund take delight in informing them after the fact and seeing their reactions go from shock, to denial, to “well how do i tell them i only like them as a friend?”
• lucy is the stereotypical popular nice girl. of course some jealousy was inevitable, but it was pretty difficult to fault lucy pevensie since she was just so damn nice
• susan is THE mom friend. just broke up with someone? she has tissues in her bag. on your period? tampons and pads in her bag. hungry? there’s a snack bar somewhere in there
• peter is a total jock who loves sports and gets wildly competitive in PE. he would always be first pick for teams, and got incredibly serious about strategy be it dodgeball or capture the flag
• as the youngest, lucy gets a lot of hand-me-downs, and she started learning how to sew so she could better wear her siblings’ clothes to her style
• none of them particularly like school, but susan is the most inclined to try her best at tests and quizzes. edmund only really cares about english and history, although he is the best among the four at math. lucy particularly likes biology and chemistry, and just learning in general. peter would say he didn’t study but still ace the exams, which aggravates his friends to no end
