Clexa Pick Up Lines

Clexa Pick Up Lines is a Tumblr meme in the Clexa fandom. The meme takes the form of photosets or gif sets of scenes from The 100, overlaid with text to make it look like either Lexa or Clarke is telling the other a pick up line. There are two variations to the meme: the more popular variation involves Lexa telling a bad pick up line to which Clarke is usually unamused; the other variation involves Clarke telling the pick up line to which Lexa is usually either flustered or confused.
