[ Lakshmi hadn't asked questions, so Bellamy didn't have to elaborate on why he'd come to her tent with his bedroll in hand. The only thing to have done in that moment was walk out and keep his distance, and Lakshmi had offered a refuge for Bellamy to do that. If he'd stayed, he would have done damage. Bellamy recognized that about himself.
His own anger hasn't calmed enough to propel him to make amends. He found a bed away from Murphy and Clarke and Lexa, prepared himself to settle in and wait for...something. It's hard to consider reconciliation when he's still angry. The mission has already nudged them all into closer quarters than Bellamy is necessarily comfortable with, but it's not enough to necessitate contact or any fumbling apologies. Apologies don't come easily to any of them.
And because of that, he hadn't expected Murphy at all. The connection between them is stretched to the breaking point, the same as his links to Clarke and Lexa, as Bellamy draws in on himself and stays there. He only has the faintest prickle of warning before he looks up to find Murphy at the end of his bed. ]
It's a decent-sized room, [ Bellamy comments flatly. ] Did you come over here just to tell me that?
[ The urge to stand prickles, but nothing in Murphy's posture suggests aggression. Bellamy doesn't move, propped up against the headboard, eyes on Murphy's face. ]
this meandered a bit just accept it
