#CHERYL IS FULL OF BULLSHIT BUT I FUCKING LOVE HER

[tothedarkdarkseas]

3 and 4 for All Up the Seething Coast if you're still doing the ask meme. :)

Thank you! I really appreciate you sending these. I’m honestly happy to answer questions any time (like, extremely happy to) for as long as anyone is interested. If you remember seeing a post or an ask tag or something like that I probably still remember too, haha.

It’s funny, these two are actually rather difficult to answer and for opposite reasons. The story is simply so long and so dense that I have to think you’ll forget a bit of narration by the time you really notice another. Not saying it's all good mind you, haha, just that there is a lot of it. By contrast the dialogue is really quite sparse, and I can’t say how many lines stand out on their own? I think I liked what the broader conversations meant, but scanning for this does make me realize how unremarkable a lot of the dialogue is, haha.

3: What’s your favorite line of narration?

Ahh, I'll be cheating to select a few, because I must admit there were some bits that still stand out in my mind despite how, er, [gestures] it all is. My favorite is probably the one I used for the summary:

-It puts him in mind of seeing his parents or his old girlfriend after the accident, their eyes glassy and voices trembling. He remembers how he’d blinked through the dull red film that coloured his hospital room and said he was sorry. Sorry for what he put them through.

It felt unfair then. It seems unbearable now. But that's probably what you'd guess! A few others I especially like:

-If there’s a shame in him, it is an unkind one; not flushed-hot or chilling but wet as black tar bile, weighty and toxic. It fills his corners and makes him sick, makes him full to leaking where Stu’s hollows echo. If there is shame, it is no comfort or concession.

-He loses himself briefly in memories of near-fights and drunken embraces over football bets in south London, lucky but never lucky enough. He sees boys sharing schoolyard cigarettes turn to men arm-to-arm in drunken heartsick choruses. After the accident, it becomes awkward, careful roughhousing in front of the telly, then promises to come ‘round his more, then nothing.

-“It is,” Murdoc says, and it’s not remorse so much as resignation. It’s a breath that soon won’t be enough. It’s the last time the diving gull surfaces.

And if it must be a single line, no chunks of two or three, I think my favorite single sentence (a contender for the thesis statement of the fic) is this one:

-Once more, Stuart feels like a favourite tin on the shelf: a familiar and lovely shape empty of what it came with.

4: What’s your favorite line of dialogue?

This might seem like a dumb choice, but it’s the choice I’m making at the moment: -“I’ve fucked off plenty, you don’t have to do it for me. You fuck off because you want to fuck off.” “You haven’t got the patent on fucking off, alright?[…]” A runner-up will be Cheryl, but you must imagine her accent, rocky but not loud from the Texas-Louisiana border: -“Maybe I’ll get clean again too, out in California. I don’t know. It’s tough to bullshit a bullshitter. I just don’t think I believe we stop bein’ addicts ‘cause we stop using.”

#thank you so much #i really do appreciate it #the past two days have quite frankly been some of the most stressful in a while #a little distraction is nice #fic asks

unpopular opinion that idk if anyone has ever even had an opinion on in the first place-

i think Riverdale would have been better as a musical

i just think them singing about this shit would be fantastic

plus it has to much protentional tbh

like

just imagine at as a fucking musical

if it was a musical not only would it be eye-catching enough for people to realize its actually entertaining

but it would probably have a way more organized fucking plot

bc people who make musicals know that you cant make a shitty musical and expect it to have any good consequences

plus Cheryl and Toni being gay and singing together would be fantastic

and yes i came up with this just bc i had a thought that Cheryl and Toni being gay together and singing would just be the reason i dont kill myself

#anyways- #yes #Cheryl and Toni singing together would be fantastic #plus this shit has to much drama/is to dramatic for it to not be a musical #like each episode has an entirely different fucking plot #the show is a train wreck #but i enjoy it cause its stupid and honestly just a shit show #its one of those things you cant explain why you like just bc you know its stupid as fuck and its weird that ANYONE would like it #anyways #ALSO KEVIN KELLER #HOLY SHIT KEVIN KELLER #IM SORRY KEVIN AND MOOSE??? #THIS ENTIRE RIVERDALE THING COULD JUST BE A GAY/SAPPHIC LOVE STORY #LIKE WHAT THE SHIT IM JUST NOW REALIZING THIS #KEVIN MOTHER FUCKING KELLER #I JUST WANT KEVIN TO BE HAPPY #IF YOU DONT WANT KEVIN TO BE HAPPY YOU SUCK ASS #LIKE WHAT THE FUCK #KEVIN AND TONI DESERVE HAPPINESS #CHERYL IS FULL OF BULLSHIT BUT I FUCKING LOVE HER #now that i think about it i probably kin Cheryl #that makes so much sense now- #wait can you kin a character that isnt animated/in a book series- #cause my friend group is reading the false prince (i finished the first book today and 10/10 recommend) #and my friend Stella called me a fucking Sage kinnie #and im just?? #like?? #idk how to take it #hes like one of the kins i will never tell anyone about #more like the kins i talk about but if you ask me ill refuse it

[crystalelemental]

Okay, so it wasn't actually impossible.  It was just obnoxious, and given that you can't reset until it's beaten, would have been impossible had this been my first attempt because of how badly I locked myself into a corner.  Neato.

Hop, Nanu, MU Solgaleo vs. Grimsley A nice, clean win.  At least someone can attack competently, and sadly that someone is me.  I do not like having to use MU, but here we are.   Nanu's defense debuffs saved the day, as did Endurance on Solgaleo.  It was, uh...it was closer than I like to admit.

Cyrus, Winona, MU Torchic vs. Shauntal Absolute slobberknocker.  Once we got one (1) sync buff in, Cyrus could one-shot the sides, and what was left of Shauntal.  It was not close at all.   Also, MU was on two of these fights, and they were both the ones that won with offense, what is happening?

Koga, Viola, Misty&Starmie vs. Caitlin Electric-weak stages are a challenge, because the only real F2P option is Hau, who is not inherently bad, but does have the disappointing limitation of needing very specific support to work.  In this case, I could've tried with Cheryl and BP Surge, but frankly I got frustrated with things and just cheese stalled.  This team remains really, really good against specially offensive stages.

Skyla, Ghetsis, BP Erika vs. Marshall Fairy-weak Marshall sucks.  I'm guessing there's a way to clear this offensively with Sycamore somehow, but fuck if I know how.  The main issue is evasion.  +2 evasion on entry is bullshit, and means you don't even stand a chance of pre-sync clearing.  At least Lorelei has the decency to pull her bullshit only before sync so you can have a chance.  This guy just cheats.  So I am also cheating. Eat my entire ass, Marshall.

Janine, Lucy, BP Morty vs. Iris I tried to beat this with Clair.  This is where I tried with BP Surge and Cheryl, and I desperately wanted Clair to get the win.  But no matter what I did, we couldn’t get it to work.  Allowing paralysis meant taking extra modifiers that cause problems, and slowed down Surge’s boosting support.  Not taking that meant she had no multipliers.  So we had to stall.  Again.  Fortunately, this team also does really well at stall, so we managed to power through.  Shoutouts to Morty for Confuse Ray helping to stick the landing against the sides.  Janine dodging literally every attack that went through also helped, but I'm going to give Morty a win since they did hit themselves twice in confusion.  Not that it mattered, Lucy was full HP thanks to gradual healing when Iris went down, so the sides were a non-issue.

And that's another week of all F2P units clearing 10k CS.  I...really don't love how few options I have available to me for offense, and I'm even more bothered by the fact that Clair kinda sucks.  Please give her an EX, she needs it so badly.  Having EX legitimately would've been the difference between her constant defeat and a pretty reasonable win.   There's no longer any justification for holding back on the story units, they deserve their due.  But in the mean time, remember kids: stall is the most valuable form of play for Champion Stadium.

[dweetwise]

random thought, but what if the party had been in the entity's realm? i dunno, seeing el just yeet palettes at killers would be a sight though kjdshkjs

i did this whole speech about how i can’t deal with kid characters in dbd so have some of the adult cast instead! i’m sorry it’s not what you wanted but i hope it’s ok <3 also let’s imagine them joining separately or this won’t make much sense. spoilers for st season 3!

Stranger Things characters as dbd survivors

Jonathan

So many tears from both sides when he reunites with Nancy. She's heartbroken that he's stuck here now too, but is also really happy to be with him.

Jonathan doesn't care about being trapped for potentially eternity. He’d literally do anything to be with her, and he would have come voluntarily.

Leans his forehead against a crying Nancy’s, smiles and murmurs “What’s one more shared trauma?” while Nancy chokes out a laugh through her tears.

They're disgustingly adorable at camp, constantly sharing soft looks and smiles and inside jokes.

Nancy will need lots of reassuring that Jonathan’s mom and brother will be okay without him, and that her own family is coping.

With Jonathan around, Nancy starts coming out of her shell more. She gets a lot of her fire back, determined to find a way out and rebel against the Entity.

Jonathan and Steve quickly become friends, as they were on good terms even before, but Jonathan is so grateful Steve has been there for Nancy. Steve is just glad to have a familiar face and is super happy for them.

Would probably bond with Jake because they're both pretty damn weird. Also Claudette and Adam, being the more quiet types, and Zarina for the photography.

Robin

Fucking screaming when her and Steve see each other at the campfire. “Dingus! Where the fuck have you been!?”

When she's given the ‘welcome to the fog’ talk by Dwight, her smile fades. “You're kidding,” she says, eyes wide, before turning to Steve. “Please tell me he's kidding.” “Sorry,” Steve cringes.

Is surprisingly quick to embrace the situation, following Steve’s lead in dealing with the situation with humor. Steve gets even more dorky and hyper than before, happy to have his partner in crime back.

Imagine Steve and Robin, full scoops outfits, bullying the shit out of killers.

She vibes with Nea and Feng who totally teach her all their toxic little tricks. She also finally gets to properly know Nancy, and they become fast friends as they have a lot in common and Nancy loves hearing about what happened in Hawkins after they were taken.

A lot of the other survivors mistake Robin and Steve for a couple, right up until Robin gets visibly flustered by a bear hug from Kate. She secretly also ends up crushing hard on Claudette, but doesn’t tell a soul, not even Steve.

That doesn’t stop her from bugging Steve about whether he has a crush and to let her wingwoman for him.

Once starts talking to Anna in Russian and nearly gets adopted and starved to death, but is luckily saved by Bill forcefully pushing her out through the exit

When she gets overwhelmed by the death and violence, Steve sneaks her away and lets her cry on his shoulder. Other times she tells stories of Dustin and the other kids, who looked for Steve and Nancy every day for months, and pets his hair while he quietly sobs into his Scoops hat.

Joyce

Steve and Nancy couldn’t be more confused upon seeing Joyce. “Mrs. Byers? What are you doing here?”

She's worried about her boys but quickly pulls herself together. Reassures Nancy that Jonathan is safe and free from Hawkins drama, though he’s never been able to get over Nancy after her disappearance.

“What about the kids? Are they okay?” mama bear Steve butts in. He smiles brightly every time she tells him stories about the kids’ adventures he’s missed.

She's a resourceful lady and does quite well in the trials. Hates most killers but is still furious with Demo for kidnapping her boy. Even David looks a little intimidated by her unbridled rage when she’s up against the killer, slamming pallets on its head and chasing it down when it tries to whimper away.

Will scold Legion like a disappointed mother. “What are you doing, boy? Is this what your parents would have wanted?” Joey actually pauses mid-frenzy, knife raised, before lowering the weapon and shuffling his feet in shame. “Sorry, ma'am.”

She's a good addition to the survivor camp, as they’ve never had a literal mom figure before. Laurie especially really looks up to her, and Meg loves her no-nonsense attitude. Joyce looks after the younger survivors and is on pretty good terms with everyone.

Well. With the exception of Ace. Upon first meeting him, she slaps him when he goes in for a cheesy kiss on her hand. “I was just told I’m stuck in an endless cycle of murder and violence—do you really think that's appropriate?” she scolds while Ace just grins.

Out of everyone, she’s the most determined to find a way out, inspiring a lot of the others with new hope.

Hopper

He's very confused and angry about the realm, even after Steve and Nancy explain everything. At this point he’s seen so much weirdness he’s just done with all the paranormal bullshit.

Just wants to go back to El and feels like her and the kids and the entire goddamn town of Hawkins need him.

Sucks in trials at first. “So let me get this straight... I have to repair machines and run circles around a piece of wood while a murdered is after me?” “Pretty much, yeah,” Steve shrugs. “Right, not happening. My gun has to be around here somewhere!”

Instant bros with Tapp because good cop and… good cop? Tapp is able to get through his thick skull with strategic advice, and they’re both very much about protecting the other survivors.

Fits in well with the rest of the Old Man Squad (TM) as well, even though Ash keeps trying to one-up his stories, Bill refuses to share his cigarettes, Felix constantly talks about weird future stuff, and Ace always teases him about his shit poker face.

He’s instantly very protective of Steve and Nancy and easily adopts Cheryl, Nea, Quentin, Laurie, Feng, Meg—the list goes on.

Billy

He did slightly redeem himself just before his death, but is still hesitant to join the group, thinking Steve and Nancy hate him after all the shit he put them and their friends through.

Nancy is wary but Steve is quick to forgive and forget. “Just don’t kick my ass or, y’know, try to kill us again, yeah?” Steve laughs a little shakily and, knowing Steve had more beef with him than her, Nancy follows his lead and eventually comes around.

Has a lot of banter with David, and nobody can really tell if they're best bros, hate each other's guts or have the hots for one another. The Entity gives him a shirtless skin too and they can usually be seen obnoxiously flaunting their abs together.

A lot of the others make fun of his hair and pretty boy look. Luckily he can take it in stride, dishing out just as much cheeky comments about Feng’s neon hair and some of Ace’s more questionable outfits.

Tries to hit on Jane because he's a thirsty fuck but gets a very patronizing “Talk to me in a decade, honey,” for his efforts.

Eventually opens up to Nancy that it's not fair for her and Steve to be stuck here, as they didn't do anything wrong. He thinks he deserves the punishment, and is surprised the Entity didn’t make him a killer after what he did.

He’s still a cocky little shit, though much more genuine than before—dying probably has that effect on you.

*cries* i’m so happy i got to write jancy i love them so much ;w; also i would 110% ship joyce and ace but i doubt anyone is surprised

- THE “SECONDARY” GROUP HANGING OUT TOGETHER YESS. THERE’S A SERPENT PAGE AHHH

- So Weatherbee can join a cult but when Archie is wrongfully accused of murder and then placed into an illegal boxing ring, no one gives him a break… irl they probably would have lol

- Sweet Pea and Reggie hugging idc they’re step bros. The Kangs kiss was kinda cute ngl WHY DIDN’T CHONI KISS? Veronica going up to Archie unsure what to do :(

- Veronica bringing back Archie’s stuff :((( why does VA have to break up first smh they’re the hotter couple.

- Them making out was so weird… like knowing Archie doesn’t want to be with her and Veronica doesn’t either… like I get it but still it looked so forced. I think it was on purpose which bodes well for their acting skills but-

- The entire idea of break up sex is so weird esp when it comest to cheating/lost feelings like why would you want to do that… BUT VERONICA LOOKS CUTE AF RN

- Jughead’s VO on V’s face, and Jughead looks good….

- TONI’S GRANDMOTHER. AND SWANGS, glad they remember their friendship exists. “including my girlfriend.” “We’re so proud of you, Toni.” AHH

- Archie watching everyone he cares about with their parents :(

- Still wondering how Betty is valedictorian… makes little sense. But her speech is good so I’ll let this fanservice slide I guess

- ARCHIE SINGING THE SONG MY CHOIR SANG FOR GRADUATION OH MY FUCKING GOD MY HEART

- Everyone looks so cute in their cap and gown!! Alice’s gaze at FP how sweet 🥺🥺

- Swangs! Reggie!! SP’s reaction to Reggie makes me again hc them as step bros and friends that is all.

- FP GETTING A RIDE ALONG WITH THE SERPENTS PLS

- It’s so annoying that there’s absolutely no Barchie whatsoever like they cheat and then give NOTHING???

- Veronica’s outfit is so fucking sexy

- Veronica handing over full ownership of Pop’s to Pop 🥺❤️ I love the most selfless woman in Riverdale. GOD. The way Pop’s is both her and Jughead’s home though.

- A bobby pin why-

- Josie’s cat ears 🥺❤️

- Keeping her serpent jacket and knowing she’ll be queen later yess.

- Cheryl is all of us “finally” NOW LET THE UGLY BEANIE STAY GONE.

- I think Jeronica is on the same step mmhm

- So all V’s reaction but not Betty’s…? The woman he loves? The woman who loves him? Betty supporting him no matter what though 🥺🥺

- Veronica being worried for Archie though I totally understand.

- Why isn’t Cheryl going to Highsmith? IF YOU DON’T GO, I WON’T GO.  It’s amazing Cheryl is fixing the Blossom family name but couldn’t she also go to college…? NANA TOPAZ WANTING TO SEND CHONI CARE PACKAGES 😭😭 “Toni, you know I love you with every ounce of my soul.” I HATE THIS. “Don’t say it.” STOP STOP STOP “Then you never shall.”

- JUGHEAD ASKING ABOUT VERONICA MUAH TAKING MY CRUMBS

- JUGHEAD REALIZING TTHAT V DIDN’T KNOW WHAT ARCHIE WAS PLANNING.

- OMG IS BETTY FINALLY TELLING JUGHEAD YESS and he’s in her bed LMAO

- Betty you always say you should tell Jugheead when shit happens but you never do until you’re forced to. (aka Jughhead finding out) BUT LOL HIM NOT KISSING HER BACK. Nvm take us back to the VA sex scene…. it’s so dumb like at least break up sex makes sense for them but bh???

- So… they had Jeronica not care about being cheated on?????? lol ok

- Betty saying she should be with V so she wouldn’t have to say “Archie” after her revealing Barcheating

- V slap the fuck out of B now. WHY AREN’T YOU MAD AT BETTY? SHE LITERALLY—

- So what was the point of having Barchie cheat if no one was going to care or have any fallout… NORMAL HIGHSCHOOL ANGST? CHEATING ISN’T—

- Veronica looks so good though when she’s crying ugh we love a queen

- “I wish I had said goodbye to him” so they said that its would be someone you wouldn’t expect her to say it to and it was towards ARCHIE? What kind of actual bullshit???

- Not Archie’s main memories being with Veronica. He literally doesn’t love her anymore. This fucking show really did nothing with Barchie how fucked up is that. BUT HER WAVING TO HIM THAT WAS SO CUTE PLS

- “Barchie cheated and Archie doesn’t love V anymore.” “I LOVE YOU” literally… what the fuck is this show?

- “Don’t bro me.” ???

- They’re literally acting like Barchie never cheated. WHAT WAS THE POINT THEN??? God I wish the writers knew how to write.

- Jeronica wearing blue colors though muah

- BH IN THE SAME BED ALL SPLIT APART LMAOOOO. AND THE COUCH LOL bh break up say the words now

- Of course you’ll always love Betty, Jughead, she’s gonna be your step sister <3 for real this time

- THE COOPER’S ANYMORE…. when it was literally the Jones’ and the Cooper’s literally moved in with them. THE ANDREWS? The Bunker of course “honey I’m home” sjdkfahsjlfkak

- This is actually quite sad though. A little weird, but sad.

- But see how normal Jughead acts when he and Betty break up? I’ve been saying it!

- THE COUPLE LITERALLY BEING WHAT BARCHIE SHOULD HAVE BEEN!?  Mmmhhm

- ADULT BARCHIE SLAPSSSSSSSS.  Can’t wait for my Jeronica crumbs… can’t believe I’m actually saying Betty being FBI doesn’t seem that awful (yet, until it’s in every line and shoved down our throats)

[stonerbughead]

love in the time of coronavirus ch 5 preview

because it’s coming slow, but i think we all need a little bit of this jarchie energy in our lives rn. 

“I promised Kevin I would call on day 10 and ask you two a question.”

“Oh, yeah, and what’s that?” Betty asks challengingly, the very mention of Kevin making her eyes narrow. Jughead grimaces; thinking of Cheryl’s knowing look the other night, he squeezes Betty’s shoulder. 

“Well, based on the sounds I heard when you answered this call-” Betty buries her head even further into Jughead’s chest. “-I feel like I already know the answer. But Kevin insisted I ask: have you two fucked already or what?” Archie says. 

Betty grabs Jughead’s phone out of his hand and aims it at the both of them. Jughead blushes: it’s truly something to see, a flushed Betty, wearing his t-shirt while very clearly straddling Jughead’s body. “What do you think?” she says sharply, rolling her eyes when both Jughead and Archie’s faces look back at her with complete surprise. “What?” she barks.

Archie whistles lowly. “Betty Cooper,” he says proudly. “Finally. Kevin will be very happy to hear the news.”

Jughead shakes his head. “If all of you thought it was this obvious that me and Betty liked each other, why wouldn’t you be your usual meddling selves and try to get us together? Because apparently we were the last to know.”

“Yeah!” Betty says, running her hand through Jughead’s hair instinctually. “We come to find out we’ve both been literally pining for each other for years. And you, our very best friend, just let us!”

Archie shrugs, though he looks sheepish. “It’s better this way,” is all he says.

“Well,” Jughead says. “We weren’t sure when we were gonna tell you but I guess you know now. We’re together.”

Archie claps his hands together and something inside Jughead collapses in relief. “The only good news I’ve heard all week.”

Betty shakes her head, removing herself from Jughead’s lap. “Thanks, Arch. But uh...nature calls.”

Jughead watches her go, waiting until the bathroom door closes behind her to face his best friend again. “You really knew this whole time?” he asks.

“Pretty much,” Archie says, shrugging. He’s relaxed back on his couch now, angling the camera so the light pours in his window and backlights him. “I mean, you’re both my best friends and neither of you are like, serial monogamists. You’ve both only really liked a handful of people, ever. It’s not hard for me to tell what it looks like when it’s…”

“Real?”

Archie nods. “Exactly, man.”

“This is the only time,” Jughead says. “The only time it’s ever felt real. With anyone.” The words come tumbling out and suddenly Jughead is weirdly grateful that Archie called when he did, if only to force him to say the words he was far too scared to say. 

“I’m so happy for you, Jug,” Archie says, in that genuine way that makes Jughead’s heart hurt it’s so reminiscent of the late Fred Andrews. “I’m not surprised, though,” he adds. “You two are so perfect for each other. I knew if you finally got the timing right, you’d be something special together.”

It might be one of the most beautiful sentences he’s ever heard come out of his best friend’s mouth and Jughead would stop to revel in it if he didn’t have one more thing to ask before Betty emerges from the bathroom. “Hey, Arch,” he says quickly and Archie seems to note his urgency. 

“Yeah?” he says.

“Why did you never...really tell me how you and Betty first met?”

Archie grimaces, looking a little embarrassed. “She told you the full story, huh? Get you two alone together for ten days and all the secrets come out.”

Jughead looks at Archie pleadingly through the screen. “Arch.”

“I could see the way you looked at her almost right away, Jug,” Archie says. “I’ve never seen anyone look at Betty like that. And I’ve certainly never seen you look at anyone like that. I just...I don’t know. I didn’t want you to think that for even a second I’d had any romantic interest in Betty - because, really, that’s all it was, a single drunk second before she put me in my place. Showing me why she was the most badass girl I’d met all night, but that we were much better off as friends.”

Jughead nods, taking in the information with a neutral expression on his face. “You thought I would be upset if I knew you’d hit on her once?” 

Archie shrugs. “Not necessarily upset, Jug. But think about you three years ago when you first moved here. You weren’t nearly as confident as you are now. I didn’t want you to think—I don’t know—that I was your competitor or something.”

“Archie, that’s misogynistic bullshit.”

“I know. I know it is. But that’s why I didn’t want you to think…”

Jughead shakes his head. “I get it,” he says. “I mean, you’re right. I totally would’ve short-circuited...at least a little bit, if I’d heard that shit three years ago.”

Archie shrugs. “It’s not that I thought you couldn’t handle it. It’s that I was afraid you’d use any excuse not to act on your feelings. And I didn’t want to give you another one,” Archie says. “Whether or not it was right, I’m glad you guys found your way to each other in the end. Even if it was…”

“Under the weirdest circumstances ever?” Betty says from where she’s—apparently—standing behind the couch, startling both Jughead and Archie.

“You’re sneaky,” Jughead says flirtatiously, turning to grin at her. She smiles back, patting the couch as she settles down. Jughead notices she’s slipped leggings on, though she’s still wearing his soft blue S t-shirt. He repositions himself next to her on the couch, propping his phone up on the coffee table so the camera is aimed at them once again. 

“How much did you hear?” Archie asks.

Betty shrugs. “Not everything. Don’t worry, some of your bromantic secrets are safe.”

“Oh, thank God,” Jughead says, jokingly holding a hand over his heart. 

“Anyway,” Archie says. “Have you two watched Tiger King yet?”

[aam-loves]

So I guess that’s my submission for Riverdale Reindeer Games.

I really couldn’t decide what theme it suits, so I picked theme 8: blitzen.

There is a belief about New Year

“Happy New Year ladies and gentlemen! And don’t forget to kiss your loved one when the clock strokes midnight!” the cheerful voice declared from the TV.

“That’s bullshit” Betty mumbled and switched to another channel.

Bullshit was a perfect word to describe her holiday season this year.

She spent Christmas with her friends, but that was a little uncomfortable as Veronica and Archie retreated to their room and she and Jughead didn’t feel comfortable doing something with their friends in such close proximity.

It was New Year’s Eve now and Betty was alone at her tiny studio apartment. She sat in her festive pajamas and ate delicious dinner that she cooked for herself. A bottle of champagne sat chilling, waiting to be opened while Betty watched various tv shows.

Veronica and Archie left to celebrate New Year with Lodge family, they offered her to come with, but Betty didn’t feel comfortable to intrude on a family gathering.

Her mother was with Polly at the farm and Betty suspected that Alice was going there not only to visit her daughter and grandchildren, but to flirt with farm’s leader.

And Jughead went to Riverdale to celebrate with his father and the Serpents. But even if he was in the city, he probably wouldn’t want to meet New Year with her alone. That’s what couples do and they are not a couple.

What even was that thing they were doing? Some kind of friends with benefits situation.

Everything started during their summer break after the freshman year of college. They were attending Cheryl’s pool party when Betty overheard some girls referring to Jughead as “hot”. Betty almost scoffed and rolled her eyes. Like what? Jughead Jones hot? The broody, sarcastic Jughead, that always went into enormous monologues when they were discussing movies, wore his beanie all year round and ate like a pig? Nah, that was probably not about him, but nobody else could have the same name.

Betty then searched him with her eyes in the crowd. He stood on the opposite side of the pool, talking to Sweet Pea. And damn... he changed. Had they met during the last year so rarely that she hadn’t noticed? He obviously filled out, the muscles of his arms and chest became more prominent, his stomach was toned too and the v of his hipbones dipped deliciously into his swim trunks. He’s got more tattoos and damn, why he wasn’t wearing his usual white tank? But he would probably look sexy in it too. The water reflected in his eyes making them even bluer and he abandoned his beanie, leaving his luscious dark locks in the open.

Betty didn’t know if that was summer heat giving her sun stroke or the fact that she was so busy with college that she hadn’t had sexual encounters for the whole last year, but she suddenly found Jughead Jones incredibly hot while he was licking his long nimble fingers after eating chips.

As if feeling her gaze he turned his head and connected their eyes. Her thoughts were probably showing on her face and he raised his eyebrows and smirked. And damn, Betty almost swooned from that smirk on his full lips. She lowered her eyes to her lap and properly blushed.

Betty still blamed those girls and some liquid courage she consumed , when next morning she woke up sore in all the right places with a memory of her and Jughead fucking in the pool house. Well, he was hot and incredibly good at sex.

They didn’t talk about how and why that happened, but continued doing it from time to time, the frequency of their encounters increasing as of last time. And they started spending more time together, sometimes they watched movies, eating takeout food, or Jughead helped her with her assignments. But they were not dating, just two friends having casual sex.

It all could be pretty simple, if only not for the fact, that somewhere along the way Betty had caught feelings. She realized it just before Christmas, when they all very discussing their plans for New Year and Jughead announces that he was going to Riverdale. Betty understood that she had no right being upset that he didn’t want so stay with her and she hadn’t even asked him to. She then attributed the uncomfortable feelings in her heart to feeling lonely, but then her stomach started doing flip flops when he smiled at her softly while giving her the signed first edition of her favorite book for Christmas. She suddenly wanted to hug him, canoodle on the sofa watching Christmas movies, go on a date, hold hands and do all that disgusting sweet stuff the couples do.

Betty snapped out of her thoughts by a sudden knock on her door.

***

Two hours earlier

Jughead sat at the bar in the White Wyrm, surrounded by his friends and family on New Year’s Eve. The party had already started, but it just didn’t feel right.

Something was missing and he couldn’t quite place what that was.

His father was there, sober, FaceTiming Gladys and Jellybean as they went back to Toledo after Christmas. Things between his parents were looking good, maybe they could be one happy family again.

Jughead’s friends were there too. Sweet Pea and Fangs were laughing with other Serpents, Toni behind the bar. He just spoke with Archie and Veronica, and Betty... wait, Betty wasn’t with them. Where was Betty? Oh, Betty was at home. Was she with her mother? No, Betty complained to him about some farm bullshit. So, she was alone. Oh, shit, Betty was alone. Why wasn’t she with him? Oh, right, because she wasn’t attached to him, she wasn’t his girlfriend. But she couldn’t be enjoying staying alone, right? They could be together at this moment, cuddle on her couch and kiss on midnight. Oh, not again.... he was dreaming of dating Betty again, as if it was possible.

Jughead didn’t know how it happened, but he’d got to have sex whenever he wanted with the most amazing girl in the world. He always liked Betty, thought she was beautiful, but unapproachable, too clean and perfect for him. But that summer night at Cheryl’s he saw her sexy and seductive side, the side of Betty Cooper he explored and enjoyed for the last 6 months. And combined with her kind soul, sweet character and beautiful mind, she was perfect for him, even if she hated this word.

Jughead fell in love, but was to scared to tell Betty, as he thought she would put distance as not to take things further. Because Betty Cooper didn’t like hurting people’s feelings. So he enjoyed what he could have.

But, really, was she enjoying spending the holiday alone?

Just as he contemplated the thought of calling her the bar doors slammed announcing appearance of one and only Cheryl Blossom.

She glanced around the bar and strode right to him.

“What are doing here, hobo?” Cheryl glared at him.

“Um... sitting at the bar...?”

“Let me rephrase, what are you doing here while my dearest cousin Betty is sitting alone at her apartment in New York?” Cheryl crossed her arms.

“What that has to do with me?” Jughead wanted to be there actually, he just didn’t understood where Cheryl’s insinuations came from.

“Oh, the rest of the world may be blind, Jughead, but I couldn’t miss you two looking at each other with heart eyes after my pool party in June, after which I had to pay for cleaning the pool house, by the way.” Cheryl smirked.

Jughead gulped and blushed, Cheryl obviously figured everything out. He glanced at Toni and by her compassionate gaze he understood she knew too.

“I... I don’t think she wants me there” he said lowly.

“Why would she not? Did you have a fight?” he heard Toni’s concerned voice.

“It’s not like we-...” Jughead was interrupted by Cheryl’s voice.

“Oh my god! Don’t say me you two idiots actually thought you had some friends with benefits situation and not just been sneaky!”

“Actually... yeah” Jughead squeezed his eyes, it seemed like an awful idea right now.

“But, you do love her, right?” Toni asked softly.

“Right...” he sighed.

“What are you waiting for, then?” Cheryl seemed to calm down.

“What do you want me to do, Cheryl, it’s two hours till New Year.”

“And just one hour drive to the city” Toni countered.

“And if she-...” he tried to argue, but was interrupted again.

“She feels the same” Cheryl persuaded him.

“You can take my truck” Jughead heard his father’s voice behind his back.

They all were looking at him expectantly, so he decided that was worth the risk. Betty was worth the risk. He grabbed the keys from his father and rushed to the truck, thanking god he decided to be a designated driver and hadn’t drunk. An hour later he was knocking on Betty’s door.

***

Betty looked at her door confused. Who could it be just two hour before midnight on New Year? Everyone she knew was out of town. Maybe neighbors.... she raised from the couch and went to open the door.

When she opened it, she couldn’t believe her eyes. There, on the other side, was standing leaning on the doorframe Jughead Jones in all his glory, leather jacket, beanie and combat boots.

“What...” Betty didn’t manage to finish her question as Jughead grabbed her face and crashed her lips with his. He backed her further into the apartment and shut the door with his foot.

Betty snaked her arms around his neck, holding him to her, as if afraid that he will disappear like a fantasy.

When they broke apart for air, he leaned his forehead to hers.

“I want you so much” he breathed.

“Jug, we need to...” Betty tried to reason.

“Talk. I know. We will talk, I just need you right now. I need to feel you close to me. Skin to skin. Heart to heart. I need you to be mine.”

Jughead’s words made Betty dizzy. She understood he meant much more than sex, that he wanted more. So she let him do everything he wanted with her, especially when his every touch was turning her brain into mush.

It’s been all naked bodies, tangled limbs, heavy breaths, low moans and cries of pleasure for the next hour. He can’t explain what provoked such strong passion in him, but he needs to claim every inch of her body, make sure she is his and she seems to have nothing against it.

When she is on top she looks at him with such mix of want and genuine love that he can’t believe someone can actually feel that way about him. That’s all too good to be true and they both are afraid to be awaken from this heavenly dream.

Then they lay in her bed, minutes before midnight. She is in his arms and he can’t be happier, but there is no certainty yet. They have to talk. He has to tell her about his feelings. He makes a move to raise from bed and she curles into him closer.

“Where are you going?” Betty mumbles against his chest.

“I just thought to get the champagne” he waves his hand in the direction of coffee table where a bottle of champagne still sits in a bucket, ice melted. “It’s almost midnight. We can celebrate it in bed, with champagne. What do you think?”

His smile is so beautiful and a little bit shy, Betty can’trefuse him anything “Yeah, that would be great.”

Betty tugs a blanket over her chest and sits leaning on the headboard. She looks at Jughead, still naked, grabbing flutes from her kitchen cabinet, bottle of champagne from the bucket and switching tv on a channel she knows will translate the count down. In a minute he slides under the sheets with her, pops open the bottle and pours sparkling liquid into their glasses.

She takes a glass from his hands “You know, there is a belief that you will spend the year with the person that you meet it with”.

He hears the countdown has began “Then it’s gonna be the best year so far” he smiles.

Betty can’t help the words as they rush out.

“I love you”

“I love you too”

They are so happy. It’s everything they both ever dreamed of. Then it’s midnight and they are kissing. They are gonna spend the next year together. And the year after that. And many years after.

Post-17

I. Have. So. Many. Feelings.

To say that I have watched that clip about 538372 times would be underestimating the number a little bit very much...and that's because I had to work.

You know how I knew this episode was going to be amazing? When Hermione says, "Are you really all this miserable?"

Oh, honey.

Have you been paying attention?!?!?!?!

This is why this particular musical worked so fucking well - b/c Heathers talks about teenage misery & disillusionment. I have yet to meet a group of teenagers as disillusioned & miserable as those that attend Riverdale High. With the exception of a very few, they have to deal with a whole bunch of adult shit, including the primary fact that their parents are off making decisions that affect them directly, without giving their children any thought. They have to deal with murder, drug use, gangs, cults & a role play game that kills people.

So...Yeah, Hermione. They are that fucking miserable.

Every teenager on that show is going through something - Betty, Jughead, Josie, Veronica, Toni... everyone. It speaks to how completely oblivious the parents are that they don't even fucking notice...nor do they seemingly care. The parents are too wrapped up in their own bullshit to see what their actions & plans are doing to their children... And with this musical, the kids are saying they've had it.

But alas. Nothing is ever so straightforward on our little show.

I must say, that the cult storyline that they're pursuing this season is both horrifying & so fucking apt to what this town has become. It's not just about the haves & the have nots, it's not about accepting who are you are, it's not even about how this brooding writer stole the heart of the girl next door. The town in & of itself is evil - it makes good people do bad things, & bad people do worse. It's about the cyclical nature of Riverdale - of how the sins of the father are sometimes paid by the son (or the daughter, in some cases), how daughters fail their mothers by being decent human beings, and how this picture perfect small town had everyone fooled that it was nice & quiet, when the exact opposite was true.

I find the cult so horrifying because people commit atrocities when they feel that they are morally superior. It’s this smug “oh you poor fool” attitude that every Farmie has that I find to be so incredibly sinister...especially when you realize that regardless of whether you’re in the Farm or not, they know everything about you, all your secrets, and will use them against you to break you. 

Cults aren’t cool, my friends. Try your best not to join one. 

This episode - especially in regards to the season as a whole - was fucking perfect. You have to look at where everyone is at - Veronica dealing with her family’s bullshit, Cheryl being the scorned bitter ex (it’s a job she does well, amiright?), Jug dealing with his mother being a fucking drug dealer... This musical was perfect for this season. As mentioned before, these kids have a right to be teenagers...and they can’t be. 

Fuck it, I’m just gonna say it. The reasons this musical hit so hard is because in the town of Riverdale, there’s a grand total of 4 good parents in Riverdale, and one lives in Chicago full-time. 

And the ending? 

First off, let me say that I am not surprised I didn’t see Alice in the audience. She has shown that she has no concern for Betty whatsoever, & the statement that they were trying to make with the reprise was simple: Let us be kids again. You’re hurting us. Stop it. 

But why would Alice do something that Betty needed? That’s just crazy talk!

And the mocking way that Edgar just stood up, & clapped? That was beyond fucking creepy. And you know what that said to me? 

It doesn’t matter that the kids are breaking. It doesn’t matter that they’re too young to deal with any of the shit that they’re dealing with. It doesn’t matter, b/c it is falling on deaf ears, ears that are now only attuned to Edgar’s voice. 

It was fucking chilling, people. 

Now.

The. Scene. (or scenes, as it were LOL). 

This was one of the most beautiful Bughead episodes in all of Riverdale history. You don’t have to take my word for it, you watched it, you know what’s up. 

When we started with their story, no way they thought that investigating Jason Blossom’s murder would steer them down this path. Those two kids are fucking exhausted of having to investigate their friends’ parents, of having to constantly wonder when the other shoe is about to drop. The song works so fucking perfectly for them b/c they don’t want to do this anymore. They would so rather investigate the mystery meat served in the cafeteria, where did that extra $5k go that was meant for the library, & profile the new History teacher. 

But they can’t. 

A couple of weeks ago, the wife ( @paperlesscrown​ , for those of you not in the know - our wedding was fabulous btw. We honeymooned in Bali) & I mentioned how the core four needed each other b/c they each represented something different. Archie represented glory, b/c he needs the action. Veronica, pride - b/c she needs to brag. Betty represented justice, b/c she needs the balance. And Jug represented truth, b/c he needs the why. I bring this up b/c of this very important point - b/c of the nature of who they are as people, Bughead will always be trying to figure things out. It’s just who they are. That’s not the point I’m trying to make though. 

The point I’m trying to make is this - Bughead is fucking exhausted. Jug’s anguished, “How did we get here?” kicks me in the gut, man - b/c how did we get here? He’s so tired, so sad...

...and then...Betty. 

Listen, folks. I’m gonna keep it really real. 

Bughead is the heart & soul of Riverdale. 

Pass it on. 

The support that they have for each other... it’s truly one of the most magnificent things on television. They both want to be 17 - just regular, normal teenagers. 

But Riverdale won’t let them. 

If you don’t find it so heart-wrenchingly beautiful that these two complex imperfect people are able to support each other unconditionally, then go to a doctor b/c there’s seriously something wrong with you. 

That’s why the “You’re the one I choose” was so powerful to me. B/c you have two characters who, for most of their life, did not get a choice. Their choices were taken away from them, by crazy overbearing mothers & drunk violent fathers. 

But this choice, this decision?

It’s all theirs. They are making it. Consciously. Firmly. Absolutely. 

Betty will always & forever choose Jughead. Jughead will always & forever put Betty first. 

If you don’t think that’s one of the best, most powerful ways to say, “I love you,” then I don’t know what to tell you, man. 

Plus!

We get the “ Cuz you’re here with me.” 

FUCK. ME. UP. SHOW. 

I am going to explain why this line matters.

This entire season, all the attempts that Betty has made to help others have turned out fruitless. She would be ignored, vilified. She’s been trying to help everyone else...and it doesn’t seem to matter. 

But w/ Jughead? 

She matters. 

She’s wanted, and needed. 

Again, I say it. Bughead is the heart & soul of this show. 

Christ, this episode was amazing.

More Than Exes

Fandom: Riverdale Pairing: Archie Andrews x Ex!Male Reader Summary: A story of loss and gain Word Count: 2282

Archie was a man of many ladies and many men.

But, amongst his many exes, there was one that he was always hung up about. Veronica was a great girlfriend and the sex banged but there was someone he longed for more, a spark he vaguely remembers and the pouring rain that puts out his blazing fire.

He longed for you.

You and he were the It couple, before Veronica, before Jason’s murder. It was a strong relationship, have their ups and downs, someone who loved him for his personality and looks because he wasn’t as ripped as he was before summer. You were his everything as he was with you. But, news travels fast that you were moving across seas and living in France, you didn’t know when you were coming back and you knew that the distance would eventually break you two apart.

“If things are still there, maybe we are meant to be, Arch,” You softly spoke, running your hand through his hair.

“I don’t want you to leave, (Y/n).”

“I know, babe, I don’t want to go.”

No one spoke of you when school started, people missed your stupid grins and loud proclamation that you adored Archie Andrews. They missed you, the ball of energy, the person that screams the loudest during a football game or clap the biggest during music performances.

Everyone just made no effort to mention you because your presence was missing, the atmosphere was quiet.

When Archie got with Veronica, most people knew it wasn’t going to last because Archie still takes a moment to look at the trophy winners cabinet to look at your smiling face, a victorious win for the water polo team. 

Archie smiled when he was with Veronica, but he grinned when he was with you.

Archie often looks to Betty and Jug’s relationship, remembering the adventures you and him would venture off to. Archie often stays awake at night remembering small details, he hides photos and love notes away from Veronica.

“You have to move on, Archie,” Betty spoke with their windows open and they spoke across.

“I miss him,”

“But, what about Veronica?”

Archie’s favourite moment with you, or at least the one that stood out to him the most. The one that repeats over and over again in his head. Was the night before you left to live across the pond, a night you last shared as a couple.

You were lying on his shoulder, the midnight moon looming over you and shining through the small parting of the curtains. Your arm was slowly coming numb as it comfortably wraps over Archie’s shoulders, at your hand was held by his hand.

His head rested on your shoulder as you both stare at the ceiling, the silence was calming as the only noise to be heard was the soft breathing that matched the occupants of the bedroom.

“With you, I’m comfortable. I know I can talk about anything or sit by your side in complete silence. You see me at my worst but only talk about my best. I can be happy about my biggest achievements, while you know my deepest insecurities. I’m comfortable with you, and you should know that means everything to me.”

Archie hums as he listens to you because you had more layers to a loud lover. He found a passionate romantic as you dance with him in the kitchen whether it was upbeat or slow, or how he was often treated to fancy meals, or how Archie found himself in a soft but full of fire kisses.

Archie knew your true insecure side, how you feel like you are not enough for him or how things might change between you two when you leave. Archie knows your likes and dislikes.

But, he also knew that you kept a list of his favourite food at each restaurant you visit, so you know what to get him when he wasn’t by your side. He knew that you keep a box of his love letters as he did with yours. 

“Some say love only feels right if you get butterflies. I say that’s bullshit. Whenever I’m with you I am calm and at peace with the world. Yes, I’m still the wild animal I’ve always been… but everything inside me is quiet and my heart is full of love. I feel like I can stop running, for once. And let me tell you: to me, that is so much better than butterflies.”

“Don’t go pouring your heart out now,” He warns, “Because I might start doing that and we may cry, and we can’t be two loved-up boys loving each other.”

You snort a laughter as Archie grins to himself.

“You fuck me up, Archibald Andrews,” Archie grimace of his full name being used but he felt your lips against his hair, “Maybe I’m scared because you mean more to me than any other person. You are everything I think about, everything I want.”

“I know,” Archie breathily spoke, “I love you.”

There was a silence, the last thing he remembers that night was him slowly falling asleep and your soft calming murmurs of love one last time.

“If I could trade all my tomorrows for just one yesterday, I would.”

It had been almost a year and so months since you went. Archie was soon turning seventeen and the last time you saw him, he was sixteen with skinny arms. Archie had just got out of his court trials and the expose of the underground fight club had let Archie breathe a little.

But, when he had Veronica by his side, his mind wandered if his situation was different if you were around. There would be no obsession between the father and daughter of the Lodge household, Archie wouldn’t be in a hot mess.

“You know, I think you should break things with Veronica,” Jughead suggested as Archie hung around at the trailer, surrounded by Jughead and Cheryl whilst Betty distracted Veronica for a best friend day out.

“I agree,” Cheryl nodded, “You’re not you anymore, Archie, especially without him.”

“I don’t want to hurt Veronica-”

“You’re hurting her more if you don’t break things with her, it’s obvious that you’re still in love with (Y/n), either break up with Veronica or move on,” Jughead advised as Cheryl tightens her smile and nods.

“I haven’t seen you more in love with anyone else but him,” Cheryl continues, “It’s obvious that you guys are meant to be.”

“I just feel lost without him-” Archie sighs, “You know, I often think would everything be different if he just didn’t go.”

“Of course,” Cheryl spoke, as she watched Archie slump in the chair and stare at the fire, “You know, this is just one small test of your love when he comes home maybe everything was just there, just how you left it.”

“You’re just looking for something you and him had in Veronica, and if you keep doing that you’ll burn out,” Jughead advised, shrugging his shoulders, “V is great but you know she’s not the one.”

“But-”

“Do you love (Y/n)?” Cheryl interrupted.

“Well, of course,”

“And how do you know?”

Archie looks at her, his eyebrows furrowed together confused for a moment because he wasn’t thinking when he was speaking, Cheryl and Jughead knew he spoke from the heart when he had you in his mind. Whilst he had Veronica fooled for thinking all his loves songs are for her, it was the soulmate across the waters.

“Because my soul knew him far longer than I have. All I know is I’ve never felt anything this deep. I know that whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same.”

Veronica never thought that there will be the day that Archie Andrews would break up with her. Hiram Lodge vowed to ruin the Andrews boy because no man should walk on earth that dares to hurt his mija.

Archie felt relieved, some sort of weight was lifted off his shoulders as he told his dad about it, his dad looked at him before nodding. Fred Andrews knows his boy and knows love. If his son was able to get his happy ending then he’s going to encourage him because he never did get his happy ending.

Archie had a fresh breathe of air as he was welcomed to school on Monday, the news travelling fast in the grounds. Many of his teammates teased him, congratulating him for being single, some hinted if he was going to find you again.

Everyone knew that there was no better pair than you and him, you were his anchor, his biggest fan, his best friend, you more than his boyfriend. He was more than your boyfriend, best friend and another half. 

People call them soulmates, you two were lucky to stumble into each other’s lives early on. Was love young? Absolutely. Was love foolish? With every fibre it was. But, lovers know love and you wouldn’t trade it for any other.

Veronica and Archie remind friends, or at least civil as they could be. But, Veronica couldn’t help noticing how much Archie smiled more, or how he joked often, she noticed how he continued to make love songs without her in his life.

Veronica knew Archie didn’t love her like she loved him and that broke her.

Veronica was smart, she was a tough cookie, but it pained her to find out that her friends and cheerleader gang all knew that relationship was going to sink.

No one told her why.

It had been a month since Archie and Veronica broke up.

Tensions were there but there was nothing that they could do. Christmas had past and there were the harsh winters. January was often the hardest time, with the severe snow and unrelenting cold, it was almost impossible to function. 

Archie, Veronica, Betty and Jughead walk down the hallway together, behind them they heard gasps and quickly hushed murmurs. Betty looked over her shoulder before jugging on Jughead’s hand, they both twirl around with grins on their faces.

“Archie?”

Archie stopped at his tracks as he spun on his heels, facing someone he had longed for. Archie made a step forward as Veronica looked confused, behind her friends. Her eyes gazed on you, she found nothing special about you but Archie?

Oh, how he could barely breathe, but oh when you had smiled everything had realigned for him. The world made perfect sense to him, the skies were blue and the warmth radiated from you.

When your (e/c) stare at his brown eyes, you had fallen in love with him once again. You use to think brown eyes were uninteresting until you gazed upon his and you suddenly realized all the potential brown held, you saw houses, books, playgrounds, forests, river beds and hiking trails. Your future flash before you in shades of brown.

The feeling was still there as if days, weeks, months had passed was nothing. A familiar spark that Archie craved and that excitement course through him. Your soft gentle eyes held adoration for your lover, you craved for his touch, his hugs and electrifying kisses.

“(Y/n)?” Archie breathes out, afraid it was one sadistic dream.

Everyone watched, just two lovesick boys standing in the hallway, it was one cliché plotline - Jughead would agree. But, this was the only couple that they truly cared for because everyone some take decades to find their other half, but you two were rare high school sweethearts.

“I’m home, mi amour.”

Archie bolted into a sprint as you laughed, catching him into your stronghold. Archie breaking the hug, touching your face making sure you wouldn’t disappear through his fingertips.

“You’re home?”

“I don’t think you can get rid of me for a long time, Archie. I’m staying and the next time I leave, I’m having you by my side.”

Archie beams, a smile that Veronica has never seen, as she watched Archie smashes his lips onto yours. The hallway erupt to claps and cheers as she watched two lovers reunite, a grinning kiss that held desperation and love, something she could never achieve with Archie.

She watched how Kevin and Josie cheer, Kevin breaking out the phone to update the whole town of the lovers’ long-awaited reunion. Reggie was cheering the loudest, praising that his favourite couple was back on. Cheryl and Toni beaming happily as Betty hugs Jughead closer. Veronica looks at Jughead, who was softly grinning at his best friend.

Veronica looked at her ex and his apparent ex-boyfriend.

“I never stood a chance did I?” Veronica questioned to Jughead.

Jughead rips his attention to Veronica, her shoulders deflated as she wished that she was in your place, but she didn’t know the story of you and Archie, she didn’t know what it was like watching your relationship bloom and how painfully obvious that Archie Andrews and (Y/n) (L/n) was going to get married in the future.

“(Y/n), he’s different, he’s all Archie ever needed and wanted.” Jughead spoke softly, “There’s nothing comparable with their love.”

“What’s so good about (Y/n)?”

“It’s not what’s so good about (Y/n), it’s what’s so good about them. They bring equal love, passion and grace…”

Veronica looked at him confused as Jughead turns his attention to his best friend and his boyfriend, he smiles gently at Veronica.

“They find home within each other, no matter how long they’ve been separated or how different things have changed. Love is where home has blossomed, things just haven’t changed. So, no. You never stood a chance.”

“Oh.”

“Some exes are more than exes, they’re best friends, biggest fans, and ultimately soulmates.”

And he knows where the playbook is that really does exist

Cheryl scaring the gang

“A B and E with B and V.” the first of many

Kevin asking about Cheryl’s boots

Why wouldn’t Josie just tell Cheryl herself?

Ethel went ahead and found the book

“Actually found his locker (+1)” fucking idiot Moose I love it!

“13% of females responded to Moose” wtf

Maybe you didn’t know your brother like you thought

Midge is in the book…. I wonder how she feels

The girls do deserve justice

Archie helped!

Really, Alice? Let Betty wear what she wants

Alice just wiping the lipstick off

Betty isn’t really the bad girl type

“Oh, yeah, Jason told us all about Polly. You know, prissy prude by day, freak in the sheets by night.” Say one more thing about Polly and pretty sure Betty will slap you

Using Ethel’s place

Archie sneaking in and Fred caught him

Yikes, calling Fred out about music vs Football

Are we’re sharing now?

Veronica as shocked as us when Betty came out with the wig

“Betty isn’t here right now”

Grundy is like “oh shit!” when meeting Fred

Damn! Penelope slapping Alice…I mean she deserved it

Josie interrupting the fight

Archie enlisted Jughead to sneak out to the Taste of Riverdale

Alice Cooper was/is lactose intolerant

How does Alice know what they are saying about Veronica at school?

Can’t believe Alice just called a 15-year-old girl a slut

I mean, is Alice really looking to get slapped a second time?

Betty drugging Chuck for the truth

Handcuffs

Betty is taking this to far

Chuck isn’t Jason

The fuck Betty, gone psycho!

Aw, Fred so sweet…soundproofing the garage so he can practice his music

Supportive Fred

Betty blocked it out, Dark Betty came out

It was more than Chuck! Reggie was in on it! I would say Moose to but most of it aside from Midge was good job idiot Moose

Cheryl apologizing for Jason hurting Polly

Dilton giving them a better story…of Grundy at Sweetwater River

do 14 for buggie prompts please :)

oh my goodness! this is a whole lot of wow in one prompt. (prompt is “Do you want to borrow a shirt? All of yours are in the wash.”)

Jughead Jones had started a food fight in the middle of the cafeteria. I choose to not get involved from the start, until he decided that it was completely necessary to shove an entire piece of cake into my boobs. Mind you, it was right on the River Vixen uniform I had received not even seconds prior, after Cheryl finally calmed her inner bitch and let me on the squad. Shock is not the word I would use to even begin to describe the way I reacted. A state of utter horror, maybe. As you can imagine, I was pissed.

“Forsythe Pendleton Jones The Third!” I fumed. Jughead gasped as an eruption of laughter flooded the room at the use of his true identity. I smirked lightly, knowing he had taken on my state of horror.

“We’re using full names now? It was one piece of cake at a food fight, get the fuck over it and loosen UP.”  He crossed his arms, seeming content with himself. I was most definitely NOT in the mood to deal with his ignorant bullshit. Me and Jughead, have been rivals since we were little, never a reason to be rivals, but every reason to absolutely loathe each other. Of course though, our mothers were best friends.

“I am very loose,”  I put in finger quotations; totally nailed it. “You’re just an ass who’s legs are so loose, you can’t keep anything in your pants when a girl over the age of 14 walks by!”

“Say’s the whore cheerleader!” It rang through the now silent lunchroom. Although me and Jughead are rivals, he does know when he’s met a boundary, he lives next door. He knows what makes me tic, and knows not to say anything my mother has said about me, knowing full well it’s something I can’t handle, and knows it’s a boundary he can never cross, even when we are going at it. He has his shit and I have mine and we stay out of it, rivalries and all. Jughead Jones however, had just crossed this boundary with his front forward.

I had been standing there for a good amount of time, and he immediately realized what he had said. I was frozen, all I could feel was a tear running down my face. I quickly came back to reality, blinked away my tears as I looked down, quickly turning to run out the door. I just kept running, no breathe entering or exiting my lungs, I had to get out. Out of this school, this world, my head. I pivoted as I ran, kept running till I slammed into the push doors, trying to find strength in the newfound weakness sweeping me.

It was raining, beneath the droopy scenery Riverdale loosely held together. It mixed beautifully with chilled fall air, in a mix of brown leaves rapidly flying throughout. The rain pelted my skin like bullets coming through me. It had awoken me from the state of asphyxiation I was in. I dropped to my knees, and finally, I was at peace.

Almost as if my moment had been detected, bursting through the door behind me comes Jughead Jones himself. I turn to see him, and quickly stand up and walk away from him.

“I am not doing this, Jug-” That asshole always has something to say.

“Betty please-”

“No!” I turn to look at him, he is now just as much of a mess as I am, both soaked, dripping with a mix of rain water and salty tear drops. “You of all people Jug! You should know when it is too far!”

“Betty, I didn’t want to do this in the first place! I didn’t want to continue this but here we are and I can’t-” I started to walk, if I had stayed much longer, my state of asphyxiation would’ve found its way back to me. “Let me just drive you home Betts. Please.”

“I’ll walk Jug.” He caught me by surprise, quickly walking forward and taking my head in his hands, pressing his forehead against mine.

“I don’t want to do this anymore. We’ve been acting too long.” I looked up cautiously.

Here’s something you don’t know about Jughead Jones. 

We’ve been together for about a year now. I love him, but we have a lot of issues. We choose to act the way we used to in front of friends, because if we tell them, it could potentially fatal. Sometimes, including the happenings of this afternoon, I feel that it isn’t an act. I could very well be one of his ‘whores’, but i’d rather risk it being true than ever leave him. 

I may walk out, but I could never leave him no matter how hard I fucking tried.

“We can’t keep acting to protect ourselves, and you can’t walk away from me, not now or ever. I don’t want to pretend anymore. Please, look at me in my eyes and tell me you don’t want that too.” I pulled his hands from my head and turn towards the street. At times like these, my trust issues get the best of me. Why would high school stud Jughead Jones want me when he can have all of them? I’m just not such a believer in his answers to that question anymore.

“Jug, you said it yourself. I may as well be one of your whores, I don’t mean anything to you.” He stood there, dumbfounded. Maybe, I was right.

“Elizabeth Cooper, are you fucking kidding me right now?” I turned back and he was staring bullets straight through me.

“Excuse me?” I practically squeaked, nervous on what I had done.

“You really think that you don’t mean anything to me?” I just simply nodded, bringing my head gaze back to my feet. He stepped forward to bring my chin back to its original state. “ I’m so in love with you, and I will never in my whole life someone like you. I don’t want whores baby, I want you.” Dumbfounded could be the word you could use to describe me at this moment. I grabbed his face and kissed him.

That kiss, it was something you couldn’t even find in the movies. I fell for him so quickly, it was like waking up on a normal day, but one day I was empty and the next day, I just wasn’t. I melted into his arms, his hands in my hair, rain pouring as puddles filled around our feet. The rain was chilled, but the adrenaline was being fed to me from him. It was intense, breathtaking even. When we did come up for air, all we wanted was more. I pulled away reluctantly.

“Just take me home Jug.” He nodded and I silently got on his bike, grabbing my helmet from under his. He mounted the bike in front of me, kicking the stand and starting the engine. I wrapped around his leather, and we rode. We took the long way around, seeing the trees absorb the mist around them, the evergreens thriving in the gloom. When we finally did come to a stop, I was slightly unhappy with the destination we had arrived in and started to tremble. It was the driveway of my own home. Of course, he lived next door, but even the thought of being alone at the time was not something I wanted to cross my mind.

He must of felt my subtle shake as he kicked the stand and rode into his driveway. He dropped the stand, took off his helmet, and silently walked towards the door. I wasn’t far behind, slipping on the leather seat under me. Once I made it through the door, he was already three steps ahead of my mind. He handed me an off colored blue towel and wiped himself off, clearly still sopping even after the fact. At this point in time, I could imagine Weatherbee’s state of anger, so I duly noted to bring him a box of cookies on Monday morning. Jughead was still trying to dry himself before sighing. He must’ve decided that inevitably, we both would have to change, especially with the mix of food, rain, and the gravel of Riverdale High’s parking lot. 

“Do you want to borrow a shirt? All of yours are in the wash.”

“Who says I want any clothes at all?” I smirked, I was feeling daring and I could tell he enjoyed it, as his eyebrow quickly rose and he was officially distracted. He turned to me slowly, looking up to meet my eyes. 

“You’re a naughty woman, Betty Cooper.”

And as if it were fate, Into the night we fell.

[dontforgetoctober3rd]

My review/commentary of the movie “Unplanned”

It was literally only me and two other people in the theater so I pulled out my iPod and typed out my comments and thoughts as the movie went along. Here y’all go. Now you don’t have to waste your money (or your time if you were gonna torrent it or something lmao)

——

🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

-narration is dull

-lines sound recited

-The abortion scene was overdramatic

-the person holding down the girl who was getting the abortion was portrayed exactly how I expected by these wackjobs. 🙄 “You wanna get it done, don’t you?” Really? Ugh.

-lines are still sounded stilted

-“Never trust a decision you don’t want your mom to know about” 🙄🙄🙄 ...you’re an adult??? Why do you still need mommy holding your hand

-On Saturday’s we only do abortions? The fuck

-at least they also showed the loony religious zealots

-sprinkler scene was funny tho lmao

-“we can’t force them to do anything. “ lmao Mary whatshername sounded sad about that

-hmm...you were at college..why were you worried about your parents finding out you were having sex? You’re an adult

-“rocking with their hands wrapped around the bellies” right. Sure they were. ...🙄🙄🙄🙄

-her husband looks like a douche btw

-🙄🙄 of course an induced abortion is gonna hurt? Your uterus contracts for that shit. You get cramps while on your period so Wtf was she expecting?? No wayyyyy she was not informed about the side effects. There’s literally a tdlr on plan b pills, why wouldn’t there be for abortion pills??? Right like I’m gonna buy that bs

-her mom as portrayed in the movie is a huuuuuge bitch to me even tho I know err body else is gonna think she’s just a Concerned Mama

-hmm. Married twice. Doesn’t sound like she follows the so called good book...

-hmm. At church. So religion is in this mess. Why am I not surprised

-knocking on 25,000 doors? I believe it, actually. Once I had Jehovah’s Witnesses come to my house like three goddamn times in a week

-hm. Dress the director in black during the showing of fetuses. How subtle 🙄🙄🙄

-hmm. Finds out she’s pregnant. Director conveniently offers to “take care of it”. Ughhhhhhhh 🙄

-“if anything it will only encourage them to abort” 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄 right. Because whenever I see a pregnant lady I think by golly I need me one of those new fangled abortion thingies

-if a patient is unsure, I highly doubt she’d be coerced into going through with the abortion

-“we never call an ambulance”??? How convenient that the callous director is there again. 🙄 “I don’t care if you’re comfortable, just do it!!” Oh Jesus Christ on a crosssssss 🙄🙄🙄🙄

-“just a little blood”. I know they keep on trying to make the director chick evil or whatever but clearly she said this in hyperbole. Imagine if a doctor started panicking and wailing at the sight of blood. 🙄🙄🙄

-music sucks in this movie btw

-38 pregnancies in the space of 4 hours terminated ...hm.. gonna have to look up that stat and see if it’s not bs like the majority of this movie so far

-well I would understand why Cheryl is “beside yourself”. There’s people trying to force their beliefs on others even tho they keep assuring everyone that wE dOnT fOrCe pEoPlE blah blah blahh 🙄🙄🙄

-why does the actress for Abby’s mom literally look only five years older than her wtf

-damn these parents (Abby’s) need to mind their business

-it’s gods will...? Wow. Killer plan, god. 🙄

-goddddd . These religious peaceful protesters are actually more insidious than the yelling lunatics

-planned Parenthood dehumanizes the unborn...! Huh. You care about human life? Just not the women carrying it I guess 🙄🙄🙄

-swear to Christ if my sisters or mom tried to stop me by crying and causing a scene I’d just keep going. Abby judging Rhonda like that. Ok. Keep feeling high and mighty.

-ughhhhh there’s that Mary Lisa quack again

-aaaand another crappy Christian song blegh

-so far, the gist of it: literally everyone in Abby’s life is against her job and current view of PP

-hmm. So Abby wanted to put women’s lives in danger during a hurricane?

-huh. Her new husband is a douche too. What a surprise.

-hmm. Abortion quotas? What bs is this?

-“Abortion is our fries and soda. ABORTION PAYS FOR ALL OF IT. BLEGHHH.” 🙄🙄🙄

-“THESE ARE LITTLE BABIES”. Does . Anyone. In. This. Movie. Ever. Think. About. The. Women. Ever?????? Like, at all? Her husband is a douchhhhheeee

-hmm. Funny they should bring up Dr. Tiller. The planned Parenthood employees were right, the prolifers just wanted to avoid blame with their fake sympathy.

-Mary Lisa is annoying af

-somehow I don’t buy that Abby was sooooooo traumatized by that abortion when she’s had two previous ones.

-“rough day at the office?? Yeah you could say that”! UGHHHHHH I literally predicted her next line. This movie is so trite 🙄🙄🙄

-We’RE HERE TO HELP no you’re not, you’re there to impose your religion on others you hokey self important asshole

-her husband is SUCH A DOUCHE.

-well, you have mommy’s approval now, Abby. I hope it was worth sabotaging an organization that helps women in need.

-my eyes have been dry this entire time btw 😘

-don’t worry Abby. You may have fucked up the futures of millions of women, but at least you’re good with the almighty GOD and that’s what really matters isn’t? 😌💢

-those women didn’t go into the clinic because you and your brood are PUBLICLY SHAMING THEM under the guise of helping.

-size of the fetus? Size of the skull determines the price? They don’t offer solutions only abortions? Aaaaaand the full on bullshit is finally here after the pretending to “fairly” portray the other side. 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

-I love Sheryl! Wooooo!! ✊🏽🖤

-planned Parenthood is one of the most powerful organizations on the planet?? 😆😆😆 that’s news to me and I’m pro choice, bitch! Move over, Apple! Tesla who??? Hhahahahahahahahahaha this movie is a comedy now I guess

-you’re right that Jeff isn’t in this for the money, Christian boy. But I guarantee he’s not in this for the fight against abortion. He’s in this for the notoriety and free advertising. He’s a LAWYER. It’s what lawyers do.

-planned Parenthood will go to any lengths to destroy anyone that goes against them? Hmm. Sounds a lot like a great deal of religious institutions.

-lmaoooo the character of Sheryl carries this movie

-hmm. Sheryl is dressed in black again.

-I’m gonna donate to whatever Planned Parenthood is still in Texas after I’m done watching this crock of shit. And it’ll be in the exact amount that I paid to see this pile of crap.

-That rose placing was the most fake, performative “grief” bs ever. Gas lighting type shit. This movie was terrible.

-ugh FINALLY ITS OVER

I Love Her - Sweet Pea Imagine

MASTERLIST  REQUESTS ARE OPEN

Requested by anonymous.

'can you make one on how sweet pea realises and reacts when he founds out that he has fallen in love with Y/N?'

Warnings: Lil’ bit of strong language.

Word Count: 1,232

Sweet Pea’s POV

I don’t believe in love… especially at this age. It’s all just a teenage romance isn’t it, you can’t truly love someone at 17 years of age. But, she makes me feel different.

No, nope. It’s just me being manipulated by her kindness… and her beauty. Her selflessness and her down to earth nature.

Snap out of it Sweet Pea. Ugh.

I couldn’t help but feel enchanted by her every time she was in the same room as me, my eyes were constantly drifting back in her direction no matter how hard I fought the urge. It seems as if my friends had noticed as well and constantly decide to tease me about it, normally I’d be annoyed but I can’t bring myself to be annoyed when it involves her… I just put on an annoyed act in the hopes that they’d stop but they know me far too well. I wouldn’t admit that though.

She was sat in her usual seat by the window, a smile on her face as she laughed at something that was said, my stomach turning into a pit of anger when I saw that Reggie Mantle was the one to put that smile on her face. I couldn’t control it, why am I like this. She doesn’t even know that I exist, she’s a northside girl for god’s sake.

I turned my attention back to the teacher at the front of the class although my brain didn’t follow my stare, I couldn’t get her off my mind no matter how hard I tried.

After being lost in my own thoughts, I was bought back into reality when I heard the teacher say my name, as well as the feeling of a classroom full of eyes all looking in my direction.

“… you will be paired with Y/N”. I felt my heart drop, looking over to see her gathering her things together to move into the spare seat next to me. As she walked over she sent a smile my way, but I just looked down at the desk in front of me, I saw the smile fade from her face as I looked down and this broke my heart.

For the rest of the lesson she was trying her hardest to get to know me, but I was giving her the cold shoulder, I don’t know why I was doing this but god, did it make me feel terrible. She couldn’t get away from me quick enough when the end of period/start of lunch bell rang out. Normally I’d be the same but instead my head just fell into my hands, why did I feel so guilty?

“What was that Pea?!” I heard Toni and Fangs approach me from behind, Toni taking the now empty seat beside me and Fangs pulling up a seat from another row of tables to sit on the other side of me.

“You may argue it, but you have been lusting over that girl since we first started going here, and now that you had the chance to talk to her, you completely blew it!” I could hear the frustration in her voice. She was quite good friends with Y/N through Cheryl, so she knew, just as well as I did, that Y/N was harmless and one of the nicest people in this school. I could argue against my feelings but like I said, my friends know me too well and would see straight through the lies that I would tell them.

Maybe I did have feelings for her… I mean that’s the only way to explain why I was feeling so bad about the way I treated her earlier. I was such a dick to her, all she was trying to do was be nice.

With my head still in my hands, I mumbled “I’ve screwed it all up now Topaz. Whatever I feel for her, there’s nothing I can do about it”. I’ve truly fucked up.

“Oh, come on Sweet Pea. You and I both know Y/N doesn’t hold things against people. If you confess your love to her… then I don’t see how she can’t give you another chance” I remained silent for a while, her emphasis of the word love really staying in my mind… A concept that I’d completely shunned all my life, maybe the whole idea of finding the one isn’t a load of bullshit like I’d always believed. Yeah, I’d had hook ups before but those were just one-time things, I hadn’t even spoke to Y/N before today (and I still haven’t really don’t that yet), but I felt such a connection to her. I don’t want to admit it but maybe I was wrong.

I felt Fangs place his hand on my shoulder, “come on man this isn’t like you getting hung up over a girl like this. What are you doing?! Go and get her!” I lifted my head up, running a hand through my hair to tidy it up a bit. “She’s probably in the cafeteria grabbing some lunch”.

I stood up from my chair, leaving the classroom and heading in the direction of the cafeteria, stopping in the doorway to scan over the large room searching for her. After a moments of looking, I spotted her on a table full of her northside buddies, including Mantle, and in an uncharacteristically shy moment I turned to leave, before being pushed back inside by Toni and Fangs who I didn’t notice had followed me. Toni mouthed a “go” to me so I made my way over to the table.

I could feel the judgmental stares of her friends, Mantle’s eyes burning into me, but she ignored them and turned to me with a warm smile on her face. “Hiya Pea”. Her smile is gorgeous.

“Hi Y/N, I was just wondering if I could talk to you…” I looked at her friends before quickly continuing with my sentence “… it’s about our chemistry project”. She smiled at me, standing up and stepping over the bench. “Of course you can”. She mumbled a quick, “be right back” to her friends before following me towards the back of the cafeteria, away from the mass of students that filled it.

The warm smile never left her face as she looked up to me waiting for me to continue talking.

“I just wanted to apologise for the way I treated you earlier. I was a complete douche but truth is I feel something for you that I never thought I could feel for someone. You intrigue me and I guess I felt kind of intimidated by my feelings towards you because they’re all so new to me. I was just hoping that we could start again”.

Her gaze stayed fixated on my face as I spoke as if she was digesting every single word I said. She didn’t say anything in response, instead she just put her hand out to me. In confusion, I raised an eyebrow at her but she simply just moved her hand close to me, nodding towards it with her head.

I placed my hand in hers and she gently shook them up and down, smiling up at me, a few crinkles in her skin appearing next to her beautiful bright eyes.

“Nice to meet you, I’m Y/N”. I smiled down at her.

“Sweet Pea”.

I think I love her.

Riverdale Roundup: 2x18 “ A Night To Remember”

Okay so I love musicals, but full disclosure i’ve never seen Carrie the musical, i’ve never seen Carrie. I like to sleep at night so I haven’t read any Stephen King novels. I never saw the original movie and the remake starred Chloe Grace Moretz and she’s just not my cup of tea. She couldn’t hold onto Brooklyn Beckham or my attention. I know the basics. They dump blood on the girl at prom and she burns down the school with her super natural powers. I read the wikipedia page on the movie so I am never well informed.

I appreciate all the singing right off the bat.  The whole fake documentary style isn’t exactly my vibe. I get it. They needed to keep Jughead involved. Cole Sprouse doesn’t like to sing or dance because Disney Channel probably trapped him in a room somewhere and tried to get him to record songs with names like “ Dance it Out” or “ Get that Girl”.

There is tension going on all over the place. Tension between Betty and Veronica, Archie and Jughead, Cheryl and Joise, Betty and her Mom.  Chuck and everyone.  Chuck just wants to show off his dance moves and prove that he’s no longer a fuck boy. He’s changed!

Jughead is like “ wtf Archie are you flirting with my gf while i’m like right here?” but Archie just wants Betty to be nice to Veronica. Betty doesn’t associate with liars even though she lies like all the time and she’s real good at it.

Okay so Cheryl almost got hit by a sandbag and then Kevin got a letter from the black hood being like “ Cut Cheryl from the show or like ima get you”

Alright so who sent this? Could it be Josie getting back at Cheryl for sending her a pigs heart? That seems like a stretch. Honestly it’s probs the real black hood. He’s not dead. He’s hiding in a cave somewhere plotting his time.

Archie has to keep the car his sugar daddy gave him at his girlfriends house so that his real daddy doesn’t know that he’s been bought.

Betty and Jughead who have been thirsting for a good mystery since no one has been murdered in the past three weeks are ready to dive into figuring out who sent this letter.

They target Ethel first because she was “ born to play Carrie” and Ethel gets uber defensive and is like “ i’m not violent! I would never hurt anyone for my own gain!” despite the fact that she straight up covered Veronica in a strawberry milkshake maybe three days ago. I mean she didn’t punch her in the face but that wasn’t exactly a solve your problems with words type of reaction.

There is MAD tension between FP and Alice. FP is playing hard to get and Alice might have thought that was cute when they were 15 but she’s a grown ass lady now with an extensive wardrobe and she will not put up with this bullshit.

Cheryl and Josie sing a song about friendship and Josie forgives her for being a grade A psycho.

The Lodges are trying to bring down Freds campaign and they are clearly going to use Archie to do it. Hiram is going to skip on down to the Andrews house and be like “ Your son calls me Daddy now.”

The 70’s hair and outfits are pretty iconic.

Veronica sings about being a mean girl and Betty is finding the whole thing way too meta. Also casual  how this public high school allows for the choreography to include Veronica giving Chuck a very casual lapdance.

Betty calls Veronica out in front of everyone and Archie is like “ Betty you don’t get it. Veronica isn’t mean you’re mean.”

Archie and Betty sing their love ballad and Betty goes to apologize to Veronica. It turns into a love ballad between Betty and Veronica. The fangirls are going crazy. This is like their fanfiction come to life on the screen.  

Fred is building the sets but Hiram is the producer so really who’s the top dog? Fred plays it off like he isn’t pissed that Hiram bought Archie a car but in real life he’d like to take that drill and do some burr holes Izzie stevens style, sans anesthesia. Fred wanted to build a car with Archie. What is it with Riverdale that everyone builds cars with their dads?

Alice has issues with men. FP rejects her so she goes crawling to Chic who won’t return her calls. It’s yikes.

Kevin gets another letter about re casting Cheryl. Cheryl is like “It’s fine fam. I’m going to do it anyway. I’m a bad bitch. You can’t kill me.”

Penelope is like “ look bitch. I hate you. You aren’t doing the play.”

Cheryl needs to pull a Nathan Scott and get emancipated. She’s got money. Get Nana Rose and a lovely little apartment.

Ethel is so pumped that Cheryl is out of the show but Kevin pulls Midge out of his asshole and presents her as the understudy.

Cheryl and Toni share a moment talking about all the whack things that Cheryl did and yet it’s supposed to be like cute? Like wouldn’t it be a good thing that Cheryl is no longer the same person who burned down her house?

Life imitates art a little too much for Alice and she starts singing straight to Betty. Alice just wants to keep Betty close. Everybody else keeps dipping on her. Polly took her Kardashian named children and ran away to California, Hal is a total loser but he bailed too, Chic is gone but honestly Alice that isn’t a loss. Betty wants to help her mom and honestly I think she should get her a nice lap dog. That will keep her good company and it won’t run away to San Francisco.

Archie returns the car that Hiram got him because he can not be bought. He can only be rented.

Alice and Betty have opening night jitters so they can’t enjoy their lovely family meal.

Hal stops in with some superstore flowers in an attempt to woo his way back into the house. I told you to get her a puppy Betty! Not a person.

Alice makes Betty leave so she can talk to Hal and I thought that she was going to be like  “ I slept with FP” but instead she’s like Chic isn’t your son.  I mean if she doesn’t want to keep secrets she should tell Hal that someone died right where he’s sitting like a month earlier.

Archie got the world oldest car to fix up. Fred was on the verge of bankruptcy approx 4 days ago so in what world will they be able to afford all these rare parts?

Cheryl gets some blood from the butcher and goes full horror movie on her mother. She’s ready to burn down thistle house. Oh my god she just said she’s going to get emancipated. She listens to me. She takes my advice. She upped it and wants to keep the house. Honestly she deserves it. She and her nana can live out their lives without the extra weight.  I mean isn’t the house Nana Roses? Penelope got Thorne Hill right?

FP turns up to see the show to find that he’s too late and Alice has fallen back into the arms of her no good rotten husband.

Is Midge cheating on Moose with that Hanks guy or whatever the hell his name is?

Jughead finds the cut up magazines in Ethel's dressing room and if it really was her that cut up the letter she is a really shitty criminal. But calm down guys! It’s for her vision board!

Chuck and the gang are having a lovely heartfelt moment and then her creepy brother shows up. Now everybody is uncomfortable. He’s a ruiner.

Those sets that Fred built are lovely. The sets our schools shitty musical had general consisted on just some risers and projected pictures.

Oh my god. Shut the fuck up. Is Midge dead? We all knew the black hood wasn’t dead. Moose saved her from death the first time but BH is back for revenge.  Plus now she’s a philanderer so she had it coming x2.

Anyway, that’s what you missed on glee

Finding Fire Chapter 9

This is how the fight started

Cheryl came out of her room while I was setting down our breakfast on the table. She glissfully sits down on the table wearing my black pants the one I wore at the drag race, with a simple jean jacket with a black tank top underneath. "You almost ready to go T.T.?" I was cleaning the dishes I cooked with, scrubbing them down when I hollered back, "actually I'm going to Pop's for another meeting so Fangs and Sweetpea are taking you to Greendale today," when I literally hear Cheryl's neck snap up. "What do you mean you're not taking me?" I sigh into the dishes knowing this wasn't going to end well. I scrub harder this time, "Ponytail thinks she has a new lead on Alice thinking she's the black hood, after all he's still out there and that means we're not exactly in the clear. Not to mention this mess with Hiram and wondering why he's messing with you all the sudden, with your mom popping up." I would hope that would get her to calm down but indeed knowing Cheryl, "Well all the more reason for you to take me not those two bafoons," I grit my teeth trying not to snap but I can feel it coming through, "Those bafoons have been helping you, us for over a month now they can do it." I can hear her scoff and say, "I didn't ask them too," from the look on her face from my side view I can tell she didn't mean it but she needed to win and me being the same way I went to far, "Well I didn't ask you to be annoyingly clingy but here we are." I can hear her gasp and that's when I realized what I had said. I drop the dishes quickly and turn around quickly, "Cheryl I didn't mean-" but it was to late Cheryl had stood up trying to hide the tears in her eyes, "I see. I didn't know," she said. I shut my eyes hoping we could calm down and go back ten seconds, "Cheryl plea-" but she shakes her head ready to walk out, "Sweetpea should be here I'll see you later." She had walked out the door I had fucked up.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

"Toni what do you think?" Jughead had asked not that I heard him the first three times until Veronica had bumped my arm to stop me from looking out the window. "What?," Jughead shakes his head, "I said Alice had despised the Blossoms not to mention the will reading recently and she wasn't around when the killings happen? The will reading and Polly are both motive right there," I just shrug my shoulders, honestly I have no interest in the black hood I'm more worried about the Ghoulie war that had been declared when they took me for hostage about a month ago. They started up again and doesn't look like they're going away. "No offense guys but sitting here once a week isn't doing anything if anything we should just split up and do our own research and just send out a text if we find something good." They had stared at me like I had a second head. "Look the Ghoulies are picking us Serpents out one by one and the Black Hood is taking out sinners one by one. I can't just sit here wondering when we need to be out there doing something. Maybe not as crazy as admitting to a potential Black Hood about breaking into his motel room but something."

Betty shakes her head, "you just can't give me a break can you," I shake my head in anger. Veronica steps in as always trying to be peace maker, "Toni's right the election is tomorrow night I need to be there for my mom hoping my father is not trying to get her killed. Are we all sitting together at town hall?" Everyone nods in agreement.

I had come home expecting Cheryl to be around but she was not. I call Sweetpea and he answers, "Sup Tiny?" I ignore the nickname for once, "Cheryl with you?" There was silence. "I thought you decided to take her?" My blood runs cold, "Sweetpea I told you I had a meeting you were supposed to take her!" Sweetpea starts to freak out in retort, "Well I came to the house neither of you were home! I figured you changed your mind!" I hung up on him and throw my phone against the wall in anger luckily as I found out not breaking it. Where the fuck is she? I understand she's mad but with Ghoulies and the Black Hood out there it isn't safe to throw a fit and run off right now. I try calling her but to no avail.

I didn't see her until Vixen practice and she did not look pleased. How do I know that? Well....

"You need to tell your girlfriend to chill out what's her problem today?" Veronica pants out after the 20th lap around the gym. I shrug my shoulders in response due to me being out of breathe and also I'm a very private person in general.

"Enough running your mouths and more running those thunder thighs Lodge!" Cheryl screams out. So yeah my girlfriend isn't pleased. Hopefully I can catch her after practice.

It didn't happen. In fact Cheryl slips in late in the night making a bed for her on the couch.

I didn't really end up seeing her until the election the next night.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

I sit down with everyone looking around and I see Cheryl sitting with Josie a few rows up. Even though she got over Josie awhile ago, I can't help but feel jealous I try to get her attention but she ignores me on purpose. "Why isn't Cheryl sitting with us?" Veronica whispers. I just shake my head it's to private and I'm not much of an venter anyway that's more Cheryl which I'm sure she's doing with Josie right now.

The election soon begins and the lights go down as Archie's dad and Veronica's mom comes out. I can't really remember their names but I will say it's pretty bold of Archie's dad to still come out to do this despite his son sitting in jail pending murder. I see Hiram on the side in the shadows and my blood boils, I see him looking around keeping a longer glance on Cheryl. As his wife goes to reubtle something Archie's dad had said, the lights go out completely for a few and people scream. But when the lights turn back on my blood runs cold. In the front in the back of the two candidates is no other than Midge hanging by her neck with the words "City of Sinners" written in blood. I hear Cheryl scream, "Someone help her!," but before anyone could move shooting comes out from above us. I look up at this crazy laugh to see the Ghoulies come out with guns and other toys, "WE'RE BACK!" one of the leaders start to sing as everyone runs in terror. I see Cheryl disappear as I scream for her on the top of my lungs.

In ten seconds everything goes wrong, somehow I'm close to the exit being pushed but I'm so small I somehow make it out but still no sign of Cheryl. I scream her name over and over I don't care about the pain my throat will receive later I just want my baby back.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

When I had screamed out for someone to help Midge I was already going to stand when I heard shots and someone with a deep voice scream. I get to the exit before anyone and slip out. All I could think about was my bow and arrow. I believe I saw the glimpse of the Ghoulies if that be true I need to get back to the trailer to defend the park from them. I start running to the park as I hear more screaming from the building behind me. I felt awful having to leave Toni but there was no time, no point. I would lose her and we'd both me armless.

I finally make it home and onto the trailer top as I see some of the Ghoulie mob enter the park. One of them spots me in my red arrow costume and they give me this gross smirk. Worse than Nick St. Clair even.

"Hey princess why don't you come down and join our little party?" I scoff in disgust. "Not gonna happen wanna be Jack Sparrow." He snarls back in anger taking a closer look at me. It just so happens the stupid wind gushes by and my hood pops down a little exposing my hair a bit more. "Hey wait a second" pirate boy squints, "you're the one who saved that pink headed bitch a few weeks back," he grins in response, "oh we're going to have fun with you." I can't help but shoot an arrow down into his right arm that's holding the bone knife as he drops it. He screams in agony and falls to his knees looking up grimacing, "You're gonna pay for that bitch." I need to keep my arrows in check and play bodyguard till the rest of the serpeants get here. Toni. I hope she's okay I didn't want to leave her, angry or not I love her. Seconds later I see motorcycles pull in and black jackets. All the Ghoulies rush over. The serpents awhile back had said something about the Ghoulies wanting this territory if that be true I should grab a few things just in case, as I slip back into the trailer.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Unfortunately I wasn't one of the few lucky ones to head back to the trailer park to go defend off the Ghoulies, I'm scared that's my home they want for whatever reason. That's the place Cheryl knows to go back to and what if they have her or hurt her? I had to stay at City Hall due to the colored circle bulldog bullshit that decided to turn on the serpents on top of the Ghoulies. There's only so many of us and so many supplies. Not to mention I'm still worried about Cheryl, where is she? Is she okay? Me and a few others are about to get into a full on collision with a few of the bull dogs, I close my eyes and think. Serpents always come first before anything, I open back up my eyes and head into the fight.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

After getting out of the trailer by how the fight was going I knew I couldn't stay there it wasn't safe. They might not know I'm a girlfriend of a serpent but they know enough and I'm on Jack Sparrow's hit list. I hop on to a random motorcycle and take a few tries before I get it to start as I take off to the one place I need to be. On my way there I take out my phone and make a call,

"Cheryl?"

"Cousin Betty"

"Cheryl where are you? Are you okay? Are you hur-"

"No time for that, listen I don't know how yet but Hiram is behind these attacks all of it! Archie, Black Hood, Hell even the Ghoulies tonight. They want the one piece of land they couldn't buy, why not take out the serpents to get it?"

"Cheryl are you sure? It's kind of far fet-"

"You wanna be Pretty Little Liars have been having secret meetings at Pop's and got squat, trust me when I say I know my way.

"Okay"

"Oh, and Betty?"

"Yeah?"

I take a quick turn onto a dirt road.

"Tell Toni I'm sorry."

Before she could respond I flip the phone shut and keep going down the dirt road.

Toni

---------------------------------------------------------------

I can feel blood running down my face as I'm on my knees with one of my ears ringing as we fight to defend off the black circle. The fight isn't heading into our direction so far, with Archie out of the way the Red nazi circle has turned more dark. "Sorry Pinky it's not personal but we're getting paid to do this and money is what makes the world go around." I laugh back bitterly spitting out blood below me, "Wow Captain I didn't even know you knew that the Earth rotated," as Reggie goes to pull up his fist to strike one more good one on me this is my end I'm done. Cheryl. I close my eyes but after a few moments nothing came. I open my eyes and see Reggie lying on the ground with Betty holding a bat. "Toni," "don't" I shake my head. "Cheryl told me Hiram is behind all this," I instantly perk my head up, "Cheryl?! Where is she?" Betty shakes her head. "She called and-" "Called?! Is she okay?" Betty stares me at startled, "she wouldn't tell me where she was but Toni," "What!?" I glare back at her standing up wiping blood of my face, "she wanted me to tell you she was sorry." I shake my head trying to process Cheryl being okay, but my heart sinks, "sorry? Sorry for what?" Flashbacks of Hiram coming out of the therapists office flashes my mind.
