[Bellamy doesn't spend much time here. He really has no reason to, and after Clarke's heads up that his sister is going to throw him into his very own fighting pit in the future, he's even less willing to give them a visit. He's here tonight though, partially out of morbid curiosity and partially because he can't stop thinking about Octavia. It's like he's looking for some sort of insight here, something deeper than "she went off the rails" which logically ends in "because you weren't there" for him.
He gets more than he was bargaining for on that front. There's a girl in the ring, slight and initially unassuming, but the way she fights makes something in his chest ache. He recognizes that kind of rage and desperate need to make people hurt. Octavia was never so hysterical, but he and his sister both have a tendency to give into that sort of violence.
When she's pulled over to the medics, they don't look entirely thrilled about having to deal with her, especially with the way she's laughing. He barely hesitates before he's following, shooting a look at the poor kid who's looking at her like he's afraid to touch her.]
I've got it.
[Is that against protocol? Maybe. But the kid leaps at the opportunity and heads to the bar, and Bellamy turns his attention to Callisto.]
The idea is usually to win, not mangle your opponent.
fight club!
