Days after the arrival of Lincoln, things at skaikru camp began to settle again. With another grounder behind their walls a few tensions rose, only to fall at the glare from Bellamy. If Clarke knew and trusted Lincoln then so did he. And what Bellamy said, went. Whatever he thought and felt was felt by the rest of the 100. No one went out of line as Dax had before and there was still peace within. Of course the threat from Natkru still lingered, but all was well for the time being. Even Clarke and Lincoln had sensed that.

In the time Lincoln has stayed with the sky people, he felt the tranquility of the people. But it wasn't the same. He needed to go outside, at least for a day. And Lincoln had just the destination in mind. He goes to Clarke with his idea, finding her in the dropship with Madi, examining her again. She was still feeling ill as she had days previous, which concerned Clarke more than she let on. But maybe this trip would do the little grounder some good.

"Madi you know it's not safe. Besides are you feeling okay enough to venture outside?" The little grounder looks down at her fee, hesitant, but nods.

"I'll be okay." Clarke crosses her arms and Madi sighs. "Really. I'm okay. Can we please go? Pleeeease!" Clarke looks to Lincoln who smirks.

"It's no where new or dangerous, I swear. It's where we always use to go before... All of this " He hints, and Clarke makes an aha sound, understanding dawning on her.

Clarke looks down at Madi again, a small spark back in her eyes. It's been a few days since it a been there and Clarke couldn't let it slip again. Madi may need this after the rough few days she's had. After all, what's a bit of fun after feeling down? The little grounder all but jumps on the ball of her feet, her hands clasped together to beg.

"Okay, Okay! Yes we can go out today."

"Yay!" She yells and pumps her fist in the air for victory while running around the dropship. Then, suddenly, she stops. Clarke furrows her brow, tampering down her instant to run to the child, making sure she was okay. It's Madi, she probably got lost in her train of thought again. "Can Bellamy come to? Please, Clarke!!" She begs dramatically and Clarke laughs, smiling at the little one. She opens her lips to respond then stops when she sees him coming in the room.

"Did I hear my name?"

"Bellamy!" Madi screeches and tackles his legs, squeezing tight. He grins and pays her back to return to affection, a bright grin on his face. He hasn't seen her this enthusiastic in days. Sure she's been herself and staying near Clarke and Lincoln all the time, but the longer the little grounder stayed with the sky people the more she grew attached to Bellamy.

"Well uh... We," Clarke gestures to the people in the room, Lincoln, Madi, and herself, "are going out for the day. And Madi wants to know if you would like to join us."

"Me?" He asks somewhat shocked.

"Yes you!"Madi scoffs and rolls her eyes like it's the most obvious thing in the world. "You have to come and see the waterfall and the caves. It's so cool!"

"You remember them?" Clarke asks and Madi nods frantically.

"How could I not? You, Wells, and Lincoln always went and took me with you to watch me while mom and dad helped around the village."

Lincoln chuckles, earning a look from Clarke and Bellamy. "She's got a point."

"But... Madi that was 5 years ago. You were 3!" Madi shrugs and Clarke laughs, lifting her hands.

"Okay okay."

"When do we leave?" Bellamy ask, trying to be included in the conversation again rather than out of the loop.
