Bellarcy

 is the femslash ship between Belladonna Davenport and Neyra Elena Darcy from the Purple Hyacinth fandom.

Canon
Belladonna and Neyra have not interacted often in the series. However, it's clear that the two have history. Neyra calls her an old friend, and reveals that Bella disappeared two years ago with no explanation. Bella has also helped Neyra with something significant in the past. Beyond that, the details of their past is currently unknown.

Ep. 89 - Venturesome Visit
Belladonna encounters Neyra sitting in her room, calmly greeting her and offering tea. She is initially shocked and takes a moment to compose herself, before demanding to know why Neyra's here. Neyra questions if that's any way to treat an old friend, though questions if they're still friends after Bella disappeared two years ago. Bella coldly questions if Neyra ever considered that she had her reasons, and once again asks why Neyra is here. Neyra explains how hard it was to find her before requesting help. Bella sardonically asks how a "commoner" such as herself could be of any help, calling Neyra "Princess." Neyra replies that she needs to help like last time for an escape, though Bella sneers that she's escaping from a life of privilage. Neyra corrects that she is escaping from a life she never chose, and Bella of all people should understand that. This causes Belladonna to flinch, and the two stand in silence. She breaks the silence by doubting that Neyra came here just to ask for help. Belladonna tells Neyra to never come back here and that she doesn't want to see her anymore, before slamming the door to leave.

Ep. 115 - Precarious Pact
Belladonna and Kieran are discuss Kieran's connection to Lauren, and Bella questions whether they're dating. Kieran states that he knows better than to give the Phantom Scythe a weakness they can prey on, unlike Bella. Bella insists that "she" means nothing to her anymore. Kieran asks if Bella would kill her if the Apostle ordered her to. Bella kicks him and coldly replies that she would gladly slice the Apostle's throat if he does.
