[An implication, heavy, that if Seviilia wanted to talk eye for an eye, then he and Bellamy were equal at that point. But also this: Jasper, side by side with Bellamy as Murphy flees from the dropship. Finn and Clarke cutting the rope after Charlotte had declared him innocent. Some kind of bond evident in each, as dark and fractured as the circumstances had been.]
