Murphamy

Murphamy is the slash ship between Bellamy and Murphy from The 100 fandom.

MILITIA
When Bellamy immediately takes charge of the delinquents after the drop-ship lands, he deters an irate Murphy from punishing Wells for the Chancellor killing Murphy's father by offering Murphy as spot in his militia, along with Miller and Mbege. Murphy delights in finally having some control over his life and follows Bellamy on various missions, including confiscating the wristbands. Bellamy's aware of Murphy's temper and seems to be the only one who can keep Murphy in check when he goes off on the other delinquents.

ENEMIES
When Wells is found dead and Murphy's knife nearby, the people Murphy's harassed turn violent and try to hang him as punishment, with Bellamy standing idly by as Murphy calls out for him to stop them. After Charlotte confesses, Murphy swears vengeance against her and when she jumps off a cliff, Bellamy loses it and, blaming Murphy for her death, tries to beat him to death saying he deserves to die, until Clarke stops him. They banish Murphy from camp and don't see him again for a while. Murphy returns to camp after 11 days, having been tortured by the Grounders and Bellamy immediately resumes wanting to kill Murphy, again halted by Clarke. Murphy brings with him a virus which infects the camp, including Bellamy. Once Murphy gets better and helps out the sick, he tries to tend to Bellamy who refuses his help despite being sick and needing help. Clarke infers that they should consider giving Murphy a second chance once everyone's recovered and, after his intel on the bridge comes through, Clarke infers they need all the help they can get and Bellamy reluctantly agrees to let Murphy stay at camp.

REVENGE
The winter reserves the delinquents have sourced is destroyed in a fire, which Murphy says was due to a guy being annoyed with Octavia. When Clarke asks Bellamy if he believes Murphy, Bellamy responds that he does showing a fairly quick turnaround for Bellamy to start accepting Murphy back into the group. This is short-lived as Murphy murders Myles for trying to hang him and Jasper comes in, leading Murphy to take him hostage in the drop-ship. Bellamy persuades Murphy to swap them and Murphy agrees. He tries to hang Bellamy but is thwarted by Raven who gets the door open and Bellamy is saved. They try to get Murphy but he bombs a hole in the drop ship and escapes. Even so, Bellamy seems to have gained some perspective on the situation saying this:

"Crowds make bad decisions. Just asks Murphy"

- Bellamy to Clarke

When they meet again as Bellamy and Finn lead Mecca station to the drop-ship, Bellamy attacks Murphy and beats him up. Bellamy gets detained for it, while the injured Murphy is helped by Kane and put on a stretcher.

FINDING THE OTHERS
Bellamy's detained by Kane and when Murphy's released from Medical, they are tied up in the same room as prisoners of the Ark People. When they hear Raven's screams from her surgery, Murphy starts telling Bellamy about being tortured by the Grounders and Bellamy has no time for it, saying he's a better person than Murphy who would've never revealed anything. After spending some time in penitentiary, Finn breaks out Bellamy, who decides to bring Murphy only because he's been to the Grounder camp and can lead them there, as they think the Grounders have Clarke and the others.

Fanon
This is in the top most popular slash pairings of the series and one of the only ships with John Murphy that already took off in Season 1. It has stayed the course of the series, although it is perhaps not referenced as much following the het pairings of the two characters. Both actors have mentioned over several years that this is their favourite pairing, and so has Eliza Taylor (Clarke Griffin).
