[In reality: it is. If Bellamy is there at her side, it still comes down to her input, her decisions, and her choices. Her people look to her for answers, and have come to expect them by now.]
My friends are there. And he believed in Bellamy, too. So he's there with me.
But Bellamy has a lot less to atone for.
[Which is, needless to say, Clarke Vision about someone else's sins compared to her own.]
[ This all seems like a lot coming from someone who's barely in her twenties (so far as Jack can tell, anyway), and he wonders if all of these terrible things she's claiming she's done are not all that terrible in the grand scheme of things.
It's not something you just go out and ask, though. ]
You sure about that?
[ It's not that he's calling Bellamy into question (he doesn't really know him well enough to say either way), so much as posing that she may be too hard on herself. ]
[Clarke remembers the trip they took together. Bellamy was insistent on leaving, on making sure he set out on his own. She said she'd forgive him there, as if that would be enough.
And later, after she had left him to pick up her pieces, as she believed it was too hard to go back to her people. He tried cuffing her in place to keep her there.
He had been so angry at her for so many things. And Clarke bore it all. He was right to be, time after time.]
I am. It doesn't help that I have a few years on him now. More chances to mess things up.
