Immune? [ the word makes clarke think of different things — of learning about immunity against illnesses from her mother, but also of the resistance against radiation that both the grounders and the people from the ark have developed, that the mountain men lacked. in a way, she's immune to radiation, and that thought brings back the memory of scorched bodies, of people dying, children and adults alike.
it's enough to make clarke's stomach clench, to make her feel sick. she tries not to let it show, and while she's gotten more adept over the last few months at hiding her emotions from those around her, it still shows in the tightness around her eyes, to the corner of her mouth.
they have more in common than just the fact that this isn't their first creepy sci-fi rodeo: clarke has tried to lead people out, and she's lost people, too. maybe there could be kinship in that, except she no more knows about thomas' past than he knows about hers.
