CHARACTERS: Lexa and Murphy
WHERE: The Station—specifically wherever Murphy rests his head..
WHEN: DAY :010.
SUMMARY: Lexa and Murphy need to get on the same wavelength. According to Lexa. Who thinks she can tell people what to do.
WARNINGS: None for now. Will update.
[As a politician and military leader, Lexa has to view the world in a broader sense. The issue is that in sticking to this behavior, she is no longer allowed to be disconnected from those around her. She cannot wear a blindfold to the emotions of the people in her life, and she can't pretend she is above those things. Therefore, she has to take action and use it as her weapon, allowing it to guide her day in and day out.
Her choice to wait on approaching Murphy is complicated by the fact that she has a lot to arrange now that she's awake again. It isn't avoidance or fear of the conversation that takes her away. It's the fact that she needs specific set pieces in place before she approaches him. It's as simple as that. Having a plan set in place to move forward to keep him in line—read: to prevent him from encouraging Bellamy down an unfortunate path—will help. Besides, she assumes that he'll assume that she'll have an agenda when she approaches. And she does. There are few that Lexa doesn't have an agenda with, even if she's fond of them. Her mind is too trained toward commanding a direction.
When she shows up beside wherever Murphy is sleeping and sits down like she belongs there to wait for him to awaken and notice her, she knows that she's crossing a boundary, that she's stepping across a line to make him uncomfortable. That she's taken so long after the poor nature of her conversation is telling. She wants it to be clear that she isn't hiding from the amount of days it's taken. She does assume he'll be awake soon, between his tendency toward survival (he is still alive somehow) and the fact that he can be considered among the "very new" to this symbiote business.]
