Murder, He Wrote. 7/11.

By @shrugheadjonesthethird and @psychobetts

Read Here. 

WARNING. Includes smut, explicit language, mention/description of violence, murder, death, sexual/physical assault and drug abuse. 

Mature. 

Pairing: Bughead. 

He wants inspiration. She wants a friend with a pulse. When the internet brings them together, neither is prepared for the immediate and undeniable connection. Knee deep in organs and discarded pages, can a self-reliant forensic pathologist and a shy writer sort out the mess of their pasts in order to secure their future?

Based on a tumblr writing prompt: two people use a dating service where matching is based on their search history.

Bughead

Betty Cooper has had the hots for her sexy, older boss since her first day on the job six months ago. Unfortunately though, Jughead Jones seemed like the “all work and no play” type. Especially when it came to dirty one night stands with his employees.

Or so she thought.

She decided she would tease him, to see if maybe he felt the ridiculous tension that snapped between them when they were in the same room together, too. A dropped pencil that she would bend over to retrieve, making sure his eyes were on her while she did so. Unbuttoning a couple extra buttons of her blouse and leaning over his desk in the perfect position.

When none of it seemed to penetrate his cool exterior, she kicked it up a notch and her efforts sparked a quick rendezvous in his office before they were interrupted by his secretary, leaving them both dissatisfied.

When he didn't mention anything about it, and seemed to avoid her for the rest of the week, she figured what had happened in his office would be all that happened between them.

She didn't expect him to show up at her apartment that Friday night.

And she really didn't expect to be on her knees, calling him Daddy shortly after

Paring: Bughead

Fresh out of college, Betty Cooper gets a dream job working for Lodge Publishing House. The only problem is, her and Veronica Lodge have been best friends for four years, and some of her fellow colleagues, particularly one Jughead Jones, don't take too kindly to her personal connections with the Lodge family.

This slow burn Au is so refreshing and the emotions are so well written, you can't help, but feel for these two and their undeniable Chemistry, I highly recommend this read and anxiously await the next chapter.

Three Peas In A Pod. 6/9

Read here.

Mature.

Pairing SweetVee.

Veronica Lodge had spent the last wild eight months in a hot and heavy tryst with known gang member and boyfriend Sweet Pea. Everything about his life screamed danger and thrill, the appeal of which drew Veronica in like a moth to a flame. That all changed, though, in the blink of an eye – the three minutes their circumstances shifted from whirlwind romance to unexpected pregnancy when the color of the test strip turned pink.

How will this new couple face the change that greets them and will their young love manage to survive the fear of impending parenthood? Find out as the clock counts down, month by month, in this nine part tale of romance, angst, and pregnancy hormones.

No Angel. 6/6.

Read here.

Explicit.

Pairing: SweetVee.

Her life was wrapped up in one brilliant white Tiffany bow – the money, the privilege, the opulence of her family’s legacy the perfect inscription on the dull boring epitaph that left Veronica Lodge feeling dead inside. To escape, she dances, grasping onto her freedom as she moves across the stage of the burlesque club, The Whyte Wyrm, owned by former sorority sister Cheryl Blossom. One night, though, her world is turned upside down when she locks eyes with biker and former Marine Sweet Pea, and the vitriol they soon spew at each other only adds fuel to the flame between them.

Both controlled by their own demons, both unwilling to relent to the way they feel, they stomp around their emotions, night after night, dance after dance. Sweet Pea has his sordid past, rife with memories of death and violence, but Veronica has her own skeletons, locked behind the walls of her heart, and freeing them will only prove that she’s no angel after all.

Can these two broken souls that feel such scorn for each other give in to the heat between them, learning to keep the flames ablaze despite their differences and hostility for each other, or will their fire only serve to combust and burn out in the dark of night?

Ouroboros. 6/6.

Read here.

Explicit.

Pairing: Bughead with a side of SweetVee.

After a harrowing act of gang violence claimed the life of her father, a young Betty Cooper found herself being whisked away with her mother and sister to the one place they could find shelter – the Southside part of the city under the watchful eye of the biker collective known as The Serpents. Betty and the Serpent Prince, Jughead, grew to become friends and eventual lovers before a traumatic event triggers Betty to flee for her sanity, leaving behind a distraught and heartbroken Jughead. Years have passed and the fragile life of her sister, Polly, and her involvement with the Serpents’ rival, the Ghoulies, has Betty returning to the den of snakes she once ran from.

However, the Serpent Prince may not be so forgiving and his welcome upon her arrival is purely cold-blooded. Like the revered Ouroboros, life is a continuous renewal of “what was” in anticipation of “what is,” and as clear as the tattoo on every Serpent’s skin, the motto at the Whyte Wyrm is “creation through destruction.” Betty may soon learn that snakes don’t shed their skins easily, especially when love can be sharp and venomous.

How did their epic love story play out for the couple beyond the events of Jason Blossom’s murder that shook the bedrock of Riverdale?

Fade Into Me (I’ll Fade Into You.) 7/7.

Pairing: Bughead.

It was the worst day of his life, the kind of day every parent fears. Jughead Jones could only watch in horror as his sister, Jellybean, wrestled with a sickness that he couldn’t control. While dealing with the prognosis, Jughead couldn’t ignore the ray of hope keeping him grounded through the sadness in the form of Pediatric Oncology nurse Betty Cooper. Can he learn to love while living in a nightmare? Can she learn to put aside her insecurities and conflicting feelings to fall for the father figure of her patient?

Stupid Cupid: A SweetVee Valentine’s Day Story. 1/1.

Read here.

Teen.

Pairing: SweetVee.

Valentine’s Day is quickly approaching, and no one is more unenthusiastic about it than Veronica Lodge. Freshly dumped and without a date, her best friend Betty Cooper sets her up on a blind encounter with one of her boyfriend’s closest pals, but the dinner doesn’t go as planned, and soon Veronica and Sweet Pea are lodging insults across the table like a verbal food fight.

The next day, the duo find themselves locked in yet another awkward partnership, assigned to research and enact a romantic couple throughout time at the Riverdale High Valentine’s Day Fair, and it’s not long before the two butt heads at historic new heights. Veronica is just about to give up on the idea of romance and chivalry before she begins receiving small tokens of affection in her locker, one for each day of the holiday week.

Will she discover the identity of her secret admirer before the bell tolls on the 14th or will she succumb to the hostile, yet magnetic chemistry between her and her opposing classmate? In “Stupid Cupid,” things may not be as rose-colored as they seem, and Veronica just might learn that love can be a major pain in the ass.

I strongly recommend this author, because she is amazing. If you’re looking for spicy smut, look no further.

Not only is @elegantmoonchild incredibly talented, but in her fic “Ouroboros” she gave this fandom a taste of the ship SweetVee, and we haven’t been able to get enough since.

Her fics are wonderful, and I suggest you go give them all a read right now!

Oops, I Think I Love You. (5/?)

Mature, Smut.

By @lazydaizies

Read here.

When his best friend kicks him out for apparently being a hindrance to his sex life, Jughead Jones sees a paper in the lobby of their apartment building, someone on the top floor looking for a roommate. It seems too good to be true but he grabs the number anyway. He wasn’t expecting the occupant to be a beautiful blonde, his age, who really just wanted someone around.

Betty Cooper wants a roommate. She doesn’t need a roommate for financial reasons, she just hates being alone. Nobody seems like a good fit until the brooding writer/bartender applies for the room. On his promise that he was quiet and clean and not a serial killer (that’s important), she rents him the room.

(The fact that he was extremely good looking had nothing to do with it.)

(Really.)

The friendship is forged immediately and soon they find themselves in an awkward position where it appears to everyone like they’re a couple and they can’t seem to explain why they aren’t.

What happens when they suddenly realize they are basically dating, they just never meant to?

(Wow, the rumors are true, I'm actually posting again.)

Surprise, surprise, it's another incredible @lazydaizies fic. None of us saw this coming.

Okay, we all love a good roomates AU. We all love some good old-fashioned pining. Some good old "oops, we're accidentally dating/kissing/having sex."

They say it was fate that crossed the paths of the brooding biker gang banger and the naïve sassy ray of sunshine, but whatever the force was that brought them together, everyone said Riverdale changed the day that Jughead Jones met Betty Cooper. Some say she turned the bad boy into a puddle of kittens and others say he turned the sweet good girl into a fierce sexy tigress, while each of them would argue that the other was already those things. Whatever the case may be, those that were able to observe it all go down said it was an amusing tale to watch unfold.

Mature.

What runs through the veins of our sleepy little Riverdale? Nothing but maple syrup. And of course it’s the Cooper’s who hold that monopoly. But when heir Polly Cooper goes missing without a trace, her younger sister Betty turns to the only familiar face she can trust: Jughead Jones, Blue and Gold editor-in-chief and general outcast.

-Or-

What would the story of Riverdale be if Great Grandaddy Cooper beat out the Blossoms and they owned the maple syrup trade in Riverdale instead of the Blossoms?

So the incredible writer that is @tory-b released a fantastic new fic today that I was instantly in love with. And you really need to go read it.

As with all of Tori’s stories she takes the letter AU, and she creates the most wonderful worlds

Let’s just take a look at some of my favorite lines:

“For you. Now you can color gooder!”

The conditions were ripe for festering resentment. Our home seethed with anger and darkness. Lady Justice’s scales were thrown off balance, launching fair Riverdale into a withering mass of conspiratorial whispers and bolden lies. The once peaceful, slumbering hamlet became residence to armchair sleuths and divided party lines: those with the Coopers and those with the Blossoms.

and

Backwoods Necking: A Good Time or a Risky Ride? By Kevin Keller

This fic is only one chapter in, and I can’t wait to see what comes next.

So go read it, leave some nice feedback, and go send the author all the love in the world.

5/? Bughead (with a small side of SweetVee)

By @itsindiansummer13 Read Here on AO3

In which aspiring writer Betty Cooper, in need of money to pay her share of the rent, takes a job at a diner with an owner who knows very little about good food - and even less about good women. It just so happens that she knows a lot about both. And then there’s Veronica Lodge, ever the supportive best friend, who doesn’t expect to be willingly served greasy hash browns by a taller-than-tall, darker-than-dark, neck-tattooed waiter. Except, it happens. And she likes it.

Or, FP goes to jail and leaves Jughead in charge of the diner he’d worked so hard to make a success. It’s a magnet for the life he’d tried to leave behind, and he’s floundering when he finds salvation in the form of his new, inherently good waitress.

OHMYGOSH, THE BURN.  @itsindiansummer13 has pretty much perfected the slowest of burns, but ya know what, IT FEELS GOOD. I love the burn, I WANT MORE OF THE BURN. Chirpy Betty meets Broody Jughead-- and of course, chuck a few criminals and there (with food, not so great, but food nonetheless) and BAM. Love story. 

Picture.... chilli fries and lingering looks across a quiet diner. 

The last chapter had me on the edge of my seat in fear, but suddenly feeling giddy? It’s hilarious and wonderful, and I am ITCHING for the next chapter. I suggest reading it here and catching up!

road to me

3/13 - Bughead

By @/heavyliesthecrown (not on Tumblr at this stage) Read Here on AO3

There are things you need to let go of to become the person you’re meant to be and want to be. Sometimes, there are people you need to let go of, too. But, there are certain people in life that you’re just never meant leave behind, and no matter what you do, the road will always lead you straight back to them.

Or, they had perfectly good reasons for breaking up – but that may not be enough for their friends, for fate, for their own hearts - that keep marching them to crossroads with each other time and again.

Full disclosure... This is angsty. It’s three chapters in, and I’ve already lost count of how many times I’ve been sitting in bed crying my eyes out. There’s already very close to 20k words; the chapters are not short. (Each chapter represents a month.) But, you can feel the emotion. I can’t even imagine how draining this is for the author.

It’s an oxymoron, she thinks about saying. They’re not a we anymore, so by definition doesn’t that mean that they’re not ‘good?' Isn’t that the very definition of 'bad?” But they’re also sitting here calmly, discussing things rationally, and in some universe she thinks that must qualify as good, at least from an objective standpoint.

IT’S SO BEAUTIFULLY WRITTEN. And I honestly want to cry just thinking about it. Seriously, read it (here’s the link again) -- this fic deserves EVERYTHING. Yes, it’s not peachy, sunshine, lollipop and rainbows. But, it’s “real”. GO. GO NOW.
