> Abigail to Clarke, The 100 TV series

Clarke is Abigail Griffin's daughter. Before Clarke is sent down to Earth in the "Pilot", Abigail tells her to be safe and that she loves her. After, Abigail closely watches over Clarke's vitals. While on Earth, Clarke learns the truth about her mother's involvement in her father's death in "Earth Kills". This causes a rift between Clarke and her mother. To punish her mother for her father's death, she takes her wristband off, letting Abigail believe her to be dead. When Raven Reyes makes contact with the Ark in "Contents Under Pressure", Clarke confronts her mother and tells her she knows the truth. Abigail tries to apologizes explain his death was never supposed to happen. Clarke truly believes she will never be able to forgive her mother for turning in her father. When Clarke believes her mother to be dead in the Exodus ship crash, she is devastated.

When they are reunited in "Human Trials", Clarke is happy to see her but their relationship is strained. Clarke goes behind Abby's back to the point of usurping her authority on numerous occasions. Abby often disagrees with the decisions Clarke makes in regards to the people. Tensions escalate in "Coup de Grâce" when Clarke tells her mother that even though Abby is the Chancellor, Clarke is the one in charge. In "Resurrection", when Abby finds out that Clarke knew ahead of time about the bombing of Tondc, she is appalled that her daughter would do such a thing and begs her to not forget they are the good guys. By "Blood Must Have Blood (Part 2)", Abby has come to realize the difficult choices her daughter has had to make are not so different than the choices she made on The Council and tells her daughter that maybe there are no good guys.

Abby and Clarke are reunited in "Ye Who Enter Here" when Abby and Marcus Kane travel to Polis to negotiate a peace treaty. When Azgeda blows up Mount Weather, Abby returns to Arkadia while Clarke stays in Polis to represent Skaikru. Abby and Clarke meet again in "Perverse Instantiation (Part 1)". At this point Abby has taken the chip and become a member of A.L.I.E.'s Cult, she tortures Clarke so she will tell them where the A.L.I.E. 2.0 is. When she refuses Abby hangs herself in order to force a confession, Clarke still will not divulge the location of A.L.I.E. 2.0.

In "Perverse Instantiation (Part 2)" Clarke uses the EMP to fry Abby's chip. Abby helps connect Clarke to Ontari kom A so Clarke may enter to the City of Light and defeat A.L.I.E.. While Clarke is in the City of Light Abby protects her daughter.

In "Adjustment Protocol," Clarke initially has to lie to her mother that she is dead due to her masquerade as Josephine Lightbourne, but later tells her the truth. Clarke is reduced to tears when she realizes that Abby has been mind wiped to become the new host for Simone Lightbourne. In "The Blood of Sanctum," Clarke maintains a degree of hope that Abby also survived due to a neural mesh, but this is dashed when Russell confirms that Abby's neural mesh was destroyed by the EMP. When Simone pretends to be Abby, Clarke doesn't allow her hope to blind her and tests Simone who fails. When Clarke floats the Primes, Simone grabs onto her and Clarke has the chance to potentially save Simone. However, Clarke accepts that her mother is gone and shoves Simone off so that she is blown into space, taking Abby's body with her. Losing Abby along with Madi's state nearly pushes Clarke to suicide when it appears impossible for Clarke to save her daughter. Clarke later tells Bellamy that she tried to do better until she lost Abby and seeks reassurance that they did the right thing.

### Bellamy Blake

> Her friends are her weakness. Start with Bellamy Blake.

> Abigail Griffin, The 100 TV series

The relationship between Clarke Griffin and Bellamy Blake starts out antagonistic towards each other. In the beginning, Bellamy shows a great amount of animosity towards Clarke and considers her to be "privileged". Bellamy looked down on Clarke because of her upbringing on the Ark. Meanwhile, Clarke often disagrees with the decisions Bellamy makes.

As Season One goes on, however, their relationship develops into a partnership. Their partnership grows into a friendship filled with mutual respect and trust. They are both shown to care if the other lives or dies.

Clarke and Bellamy have been known to clash on many different occasions. This often leads them to be on the opposite sides of an argument. The two have also been known to contradict one another. One such occasion is when Bellamy makes a speech about staying at camp and fighting the Grounders. Minutes later, Clarke makes a contradicting speech about surviving to fight another day and that they should leave camp.

Clarke shows great concern for Bellamy during the fight with the Grounders. She refuses to close the door until Bellamy is back. When Clarke is forced to leave both Bellamy and Finn Collins outside to die, she is shown to be remorseful as she closes the dropship door.

In Season Two they are reunited after Clarke escapes Mount Weather. They then set out to go find Finn along with Octavia. Bellamy is seen supporting Clarke and is worried when she gets injured close to the dropship. Shortly after Finn's death, Clarke agrees with the plan to send Bellamy to Mount Weather, stating she was weak by caring too much. Throughout Bellamy's mission, Clarke stays in contact with him, concerned about his wellbeing.

Together they make the decision to pull the lever, causing radiation to enter and killing all the Mountain Men. This action causes Clarke to feel a crushing guilt and opposed to returning to Arkadia she chooses to departure on her own after saying goodbye to Bellamy.

In the third season Bellamy is worried in learning that Clarke is being hunted. He goes to great lengths to find her and he is disappointed when she chooses to stay in Polis as an ambassador. Their relationship is strained for a while after that, and things get worse when Clarke learns that Bellamy was responsible for the grounder massacre. She tries to reason with him, which is where he expresses his pain over her leaving after what they did at mount weather.

After Clarke returns to Arkadia with the flame she teams up with Bellamy and the other members of the resistance to find Luna. After being rejected by her they come up with a plan to use Ontari, and they head to Polis together. In this conversation, Bellamy expresses his concerns about trusting Roan, to which Clarke replies she trusts him. Once in Polis, Murphy notes that he is not the only one trying to save someone he cares for, suggesting Clarke is important to Bellamy. This is confirmed the other way around when a chipped Abby says Clarke's friends are her weak spot, and she suggests they torture Bellamy. Later, Bellamy supports Clarke's decision to enter the City of Light after which Clarke reveals the truth about Earth's nuclear instability to him.

In Muil series, Clarke and Bellamy confesses their feelings for each other. They share a kiss before going into cryo-sleep. They share another kiss when they wake up but it is interrupted by Octavia.
