#Jughead tries to hit on Betty

[darwinquark]

Just here to back up the other messages about publishing TKOF as an original work. Seriously, I think it would do really well as an original work. You hit every note on the angst, the need, and the banter. I literally am having withdrawals from that fic. You write those two in such a beautiful and realistic way. I always feel like the weird cannon storyline ms of RD just fall away when I read your fics. Also, I would love to have a physical copy to put on my bookshelf like a little trophy.

"I would love to have a physical copy to put on my bookshelf like a little trophy" stop it you're going to make me cry! man one of these days when I have a better schedule I'll see how much time it'd realistically take to adapt it - I still think there's a lot I'd have to change/rework, but I appreciate you guys believing in me! I've actually conceptualized the opening scene to a degree, and so far it's set in this late night hole-in-the-wall cafe that Jughead (or whoever!?) works at (replacement Pops), and he has his 'library section' of curated books that the customers always ignore bc he's insufferable, and when Veronica (or whoever!?) comes to town for the the first time she forces the driver to let her out there and he overhears an absolutely vicious fight with her dad while taking out the trash that reveals a lot of private drama, and that sort of sets the tone for her being on the defensive with him (because I'd probs make her/her family famous in some way), esp bc he's also the only person working in the cafe that late and has to awkwardly make her a latte. I think she'd probably be a little bitchy and belittling because she feels exposed, even though he hasn't said a word about it, and at that point she'd unlock his winning droll personality. from there I guess she'd befriend the betty character and bristle a bit when she realizes the miserly cafe urchin is her boyfriend, and then they'd probs fall into a similar core fore kind of vibe with a perpetual distance between the two of them, and I'd skip around in time till the present timeline from there. that's as far as I've thought it out lol, but the little snippet I tried writing a year or so ago gave me a little buzz for sure! honored by the interest <3

Riverdale 7x19 - The Golden Age of Television (Spoilers)

Ok, I will admit the last couple of minutes got me choked up a bit. As much as I feel the series went downhill, I am going to miss it. Or some of it. And I'm glad that, contrary to some of the rumors, things didn't play out quite as I had heard.

The story starts with the removal of Featherhead and the hiring of Weatherbee. Also, the Councilor is leaving for Washington. And we see how the timeline is starting down the path towards light (or some such nonsense). Archie plans on riding the rails during the summer, working on his poetry. That is until he finds out Reggie won't be going to this all important Basketball camp as it will be during peak harvest season. Archie tells Reggie to go to the camp and that Archie will take Reggie's place on the farm. Good on you Archie, you might just be like Fred yet. Eh, probably not. But still good.

Pep comics is going to shut down, but not without putting out one last issue based on "The Comet," by W. E. B. Du Bois. Jughead writes the editorial. Judging by the amount of people reading the last comic, I'm guessing we're to believe it makes people think.

Meanwhile, Jughead gives Du Bois' contact information to Veronica, who gains the rights to make a film version. Clay will write and direct.

Cheryl takes back the Vixens. Evelyn's reaction is priceless.

Nobody mentions Midge. Well...

Hal will be sleeping in the basement. Betty's book is published and she gives a copy to Alice. Alice reads it...and yaddah, yaddah, yaddah....understands Betty now....more bullshit...Alice still has a chance to be happy. But not a stewardess because, well, 1950s.

So, Angel Tabita arrives and shows Jughead seasons 1-6 of Riverdale on an old color tv. This causes Jughead to get his memories back. Tabitha explains that they've done their job creating a better timeline (okay), but the timelines were too tangled to separate them. However, she was able to merge them into one timeline. But this means she can't take everyone back to 2023.

...Sure.

What she can do is give everyone their memories back. Long story short, everyone is given the option to view their past lives. Everyone agrees, except for Kevin because he finds there is no Clay before this timeline and Julian because he learns he's a doll. It's a yes it's a lot for everyone to take in.

So, they all meet up again and talk with Tabitha. The Bear is mentioned. Yay! Everyone asks if it would be possible for Tabitha to make it so they would only have the good memories, but not the bad. I mean, I can't blame them...but some of those memories will loose context.

Good news, apparently it is possible. All Tabitha has to do is hit a big ol' reset button (...Fuck you Riverdale) and show them only the good memories. And so we see everyone, including Kevin, Clay, and Julian watching them.

Tabitha sneaks out and Jughead follows. Jughead asks if Tabitha will stay. She says she can't because there's another Tabitha out there who's actually about to live the life this Tabitha should have had had she not come to Riverdale, but she and Jughead will never get together. Jughead, again, tries to get her to stay as they had a life together before....and, I'm sorry, I know the writers are trying to give Jabitha an epic goodbye...but in the pervious scene Jughead's arm was wrapped around Veronica...they're still dating...what does Jughead think will happen here? Anyway, in the end they have one final kiss goodbye and she disappears. Well, she exits off the stage, they don't have the money for special effects (as season six shows us).

We find out after that Jughead has opted out of not having his memories re-erased and having only the good memories put in. What Jughead mentions, and it seems like he didn't know this at the time, is that Betty also chose to keep all of her memories.

God, life at the Cooper's will be fun. "Hal, can you carve the Turkey?" "GOD MOM, DON'T GIVE HIM A KNIFE!"

Well, one more episode to go. I admit I'm a little curious on how this will end, though I don't have any high expectations for it. Oh, but one last thing before I end this...

Frank and Tom are sleeping with each other. Really. Trying getting that image out of your head.

The dear to my heart Rivernatural crossover episode where SalmonDean show up to investigate the mothmen and run into the core4 at Pop's where there's pie and Archie "I think I'm destined to be. a Hunter" but Sam gives him a speech about responsibility and so Archie stays in Riverdale but he wears flannel for the next couple of episodes. And Veronica tries to hag for Dean but he's so uncomfortable with it but ends up hitting it off with Cheryl immediately and they start gossiping about all these absolute freaks immediately. And Jughead is weirdly absent but does end up solving the case and narrating the outro and saying things about how the American dream has not kept pace with the American man or some gay shit and

Betty works on the car

[damonsalvitorewife]

Hiiii!!!!!! Huge fan!! Can please please please do OBX x RIVERDALE x reader. Where she is JB twin sister she is dating JJ and she finds out he cheated on her with Kie. She moves to riverdale and meets Jughead. I kind of want her to take the place of Betty. I love betty. Can the readers name be Bailey so we can still have B and V? Bailey Jug Archie and Ronnie all go to meet Baileys family. JJ gets all made bc he relized he lost Bailey. And calls Bailey a slut and mean names. Jug gets made and starts defending her and is like " She did nothing wrong your the one who hurt her." "Say one more thing about her and I'll ripe your throat out." JJ trys to punch him and jug is like " I,ve had my tattoo carved out, Someone tried to kill me with a rock, belive me I can take a hit." And JJ is talking about jug and Bailey goes "Hey JJ shut the fuck up." As she punches him. "Talk about my fiance like that again and you will be sorry." and everyone is like "Fiance?" John b goes " he cand be your fiance your only 17." " Well I'm emancipated so I can get married. Infact we are getting married tommorow." "I came here to invite you guys." and they all huge on her. and JJ apoligises. Sorry I know this is like all over the place.

“but did you do it?” / serpent duo

Some Meme | @coophunts

▌♔ ▌❝ I've never backed down in the past, why start now ? I think you know when it comes to hunting, I take it personally. ❞ VOICE TAINTED WITH DARKENSS, the blues in his hues glazed with horror, the silver knife in his hands stained with ruby as he playfully twirls it around his fingers. Humming to himself as he beckons his blonde lover to follow along, the echo of their footsteps as they make their way across the streets of SERPENT TERRITORY, abandoned building built a garage door built from steel. Tossing a smirk over his shoulder as he reaches down to unlock the chain, lifting the garage door just enough for the two serpents to squeeze through, then shuts it behind him. Lights flickering, he takes note to fix that later, but right now he has something much more important to attend to. In the middle of the room he has someone-- ( no, not someone ) but a GHOULIE chained up to a chair, his body hunched over. He's still alive, mind you the bloody mess is from the broken nose and the cut Jughead did on his face, but he didn't dare lay another finger on him. Not till he and Betty got some answers. THE PRINCE and his future queen went rogue on this, cause of course, they fucking had to when his old man is in charge, and when his old man is having the serpents crumble underneath the Ghoulies, of all fucking gangs. Jughead's father wanted to create peace within the two gangs.... yet time after time the ghoulies would steal from the serpents, would feast upon whatever they please, and FP wouldn't even bat his eyelashes or say shit, he would wave it off as nothing damaging, nothing important. But in Jughead's eyes he knew, and he knew everyone else knew, because it's like prison fucking knowledge.... you don't become the bitch, you make them your bitch. And if you become the bitch you are royalty fucking fucked. Jughead confided in Betty about the little situation, how the Serpents are being stepped on, and looked at as a kiddy gang. Born and raise southside serpents, it's all they know, it's all they have. He knew his old man was a drunk... but stupid? It's fucking embarrassing to even be associated with that man. THE DARK HAIRED RAVEN comes closer to the Ghoulies. Whistling a tune before kicking at the enemies leg, a light tap but he knows that the beating from early left the Ghoulie feeling quite sensitive to touch. ❝ Wakey, wakey. I think you've slept quite a bit. ❞ A groan escapes past the Ghoulies lips, slowly he comes out of it, spitting some blood, lifting his head with as much strength as he could. Wincing at the pain--- it's all coming back to him and then HITS HIM, gasping for a second, he tries to escape, but the chains won't allow him to move, not even a nudge. Jughead smirks as he rounds the Ghoulie with interest, glancing over at Betty. ❝ I think it's time we sent the Ghoulies a message. You guys think we're a fuckin' joke... tsk, tsk. You messed with the wrong fuckin' gang. ❞

okay look obviously I don't want to watch riverdale. I couldn't get past the first like two seasons or something when it first came out. but I'm gonna be so for real with yall, I cannot stop thinking about Sweet Pea. This shit hit me out of nowhere. I stumbled across this scene and that was it. He's a 6'3 gangster who's more than ready to commit AND self described needy????? I stood no chance. This isn't my fault. I especially can't stop thinking about both height difference and contrastic aesthetics ships, and if you're dating Sweet Pea, there's a 90% chance he's taller than you.

no bc you're probably friends with Betty and you've been this soft sweet lil angel for your whole life, but the second you see big buff intimidating Sweet Pea, it's game over. you've been making goo goo eyes at him ever since, and you keep asking Betty to get info about him from Jughead. Betty's never ever seen you this down bad for someone, she's never seen you want someone so bad. You've known each other for so long and you've helped her through all the craziness that's happened since Cheryl's brother died, so she feels like she owes this to you. Sweet Pea fell the moment he saw you. You look like an angel, and you sound like an angel, and you probably are an angel if you ask him. He's been doing everything he can to avoid you, because he knows that bad shit will only happen if you get tangled up with him, but that can't stop him from thinking about you all the time, from wishing more than anything that he could be with you. He's convinced himself it would be selfish to pursue you, that you deserve someone better than him. He finally, finally folds when you show up at his place late at night. He'd been about to go to sleep when someone was banging on his door. He finally answered and found you there, standing in the pouring rain. You're shivering, not dressed at all for the weather as you ramble about how your car broke down and you didn't know who else to ask for help. He's so close to folding, he's so close. You're right here, you're asking him to swoop in and rescue you, but what really pushes him over the edge is the way you look at him. You stare up at him, batting your pretty eyes that sparkle in the low light as you shiver. You look at him like he's Hercules, like he can protect you and keep you safe, like you want him to. He gets completely lost in you for a few moments before he snaps out of it, and wraps one of his flannels around your shoulders. It's kind of big on you, and seeing you snuggle with his shirt like it's a blanket is too much. He still desperately tries to convince himself that it will never happen, that he doesn't have a chance with you, but all doubt disappears when he offers to let you stay the night. He awkwardly tells you he only has one bed, but you seem a little too okay with that, too excited to be in such close proximity to him. Neither of you know who's going to make the first move, but you know something is going to give. There's no way you can make it through the night without something happening between you.

Meeting of Heroes

Pureheart The Powerful AKA Archibald "Archie" Andrews was no stranger to other superheroes like himself. His friends Jughead, Veronica, and Betty were also superheroes. Even Moose and Reggie. They even had allies in other areas like Greendale, home of Sabrina Spellman, code name: Enchantress. Speaking of Sabrina, she was off in another dimension dealing with magical problems that needed her attention, but she had time before she left to warn Archie and his friends that her enemies, the Greendale Thirteen, would be coming to Riverdale to take over.

The Greendale Thirteen was a group of thirteen witches that wanted to rule the mortal world and cast in an era of chaos and disarray. They wouldn't succeed. Not if Pureheart, Superteen, Miss Vanity, and Captain Hero had anything to say about it.

Despite not being here to help, Sabrina didn't leave her super pals completely alone. She was sending one of her closest friends to come and help them.

It was a good thing too, because they could use all the help they could get. Even though they all had super strength, they were still outnumbered by nine. The witches blasted them with their magic as Archie took on the head witch. She gave him an uninterested look. "You think you can stop us, child?" Her voice was oozing with overconfidence. "We are not of this earth. Nothing on this planet can stop us." She boasted.

"Well, I'm sure as hell gonna try." Pureheart told her as he flew towards her, fist raised for a punch. The witch laughed as she summoned a blast of blue magical energy as it crashed into Archie, knocking him back as he tried to break through it with punches. He kept punching himself a path with his brawn before the witch cast a shield to protect herself as Pureheart slammed his fists into the wall of magic to break through. The head witch summoned lightning and struck Archie down to the ground as he created a small crater from his descent.

He grunted as he looked up at the witch as she summoned a fireball in her hands and as she was about to throw it down at Archie, one of her fellow witches told her something as her face shifted from smug to complete anger and shock as the head witch barked orders for her fellow wiccans to blast their magic towards the sky as Archie frown in confusion as Betty and Veronica helped him up. “What the hell are they shooting at?” Captain Hero, Jughead, asked.

He got his answer as a ball of light that looked similar to a comet was heading towards them, as the witches' powers seemed to be ineffective against this thing. Each strike of magic made it seem bigger and more powerful as Pureheart watched the comet strike five witches down to the ground as the remaining eight either attacked and got hit by the ball of light, or tried to escape and got caught until only the head witch was left.

The ball of energy stopped as it formed a person with a red, black, yellow suit. He wore a black helmet and a red visor to cover his face as the mysterious flying man smiled at the witch. “Long time no see, witch bitch.”

“Why won’t you die?!” the witch shrieked as she blasted him with blue fire as he flew towards it and Archie’s heart dropped at that. Seeing this hero getting burned alive was unsettling, but luckily, he wasn’t. The new hero shot a stream of his own energy that glowed and sparkled like a miniature galaxy as the two energy forces collided over each other, trying to consume the other one as the witch was losing her edge. She struggled to push back. “You can’t win. We won’t be imprisoned again.”

“Too late. You’ve lost.” The hero pushed more energy until it exploded, causing a blinding light and Pureheart covered his eyes until it was all clear. They all looked to see the mystery hero standing there with the witch in his arms, unconscious. “There. She won’t be able to take over your town now.”

Archie swallowed as he walked towards the male hero and held out his hand. “Thanks for coming when you did. You saved our asses.”

The guy flashed Pureheart a grin that made his heart skip a beat. “No problem, Pureheart The Powerful. You and the Superteens are doing a great job. Keep up the good work.” He rounded up all the witches and put them together as he used his powers to create a large ball to fit all of them in. “See ya around.”

Archie watched him go as he smiled like an idiot before he remembered that they didn’t catch his name. “Wait! What’s your name?”

The guy looked down at them and smiled once again. “The Comet. But you can call me Y/N.” Then he was gone.

“Cool.” Archie whispered to himself.

The prehistory of the Archies

So in 1963 Archie, Jughead, Moose, and Reggie had a whirlwind rise and fall as the band The Beetles. Though it was only a dream, it re-taught Archie the lesson on the high price of fame that he had learned some years' prior when he dreamt he was a Frankie Avalon clone, and the lesson Jughead learned before that when was Elvis.

Despite that harsh slide, the pull of music and the overwhelming power of Beatle-mania kept him enthralled -- so he was still trying his hands with the probably sue-able The Beets.

Reggie was headlining his own group in 1966 along with a shaggy bown haired boy and original Beetle Moose. Though Archie had been a part of Reggie's Rockers, Archie cut out once he was shown some overly aggressive female fan behavior.

But the three -- Reggie, Moose, and shaggy brown hair kid -- were still together as "Reggie's Rocking Rockers" in 1967.

At this point Archie had gotten Jughead and Dilton together to form their own not named competing band, a big hit at Harold's Teen Club, before inadvertently sabotaging their way to victory at the Battle of the Bands against Reggie's Rocking Rockers. To be sure I am not sure what a rock contest victory judged by Mr. Weatherbee is worth -- The Pinheads were never going to get a fair shake from the Hill Valley judges -- but they considered it something.

1968 and Archie is dabbling with a band with Jughead, but also taking up solo gigs -- not a good sign for nascent band dynamics.

Reggie's Rockers imploded, leaving him to a bitter anguish and jealousy --

Yet, Reggie ended up in the band -- replacing the rotating third and sometimes fourth anonymous members. They were not yet able to settle on a name, but Archie's Archers was the clear favorite. And even as they were always on the hunt for the big chance, working any available connections -- most obviously Mr. Lodge --

which was an exercise in desperate stubbornness --

They got themselves one record executive hearing at least, and one clear rejection --

and had to have been getting the sense of their greenness and limitations --

And pulling their way out of a bad Beatles imitation, Archie spearheaded an era of experiments -- experimental nature, bringing in unusual instruments for rock as they sought to find their own more industrial sound.

Indeed, even after finally settling on their permanent name of The Archies, and despite a lot of aural dead ends, Archie's musical experimentation continued.

Needing a fuller sound, perhaps with Reggie's familiarity from when be was a part of his bands, they brought Moose in for a couple tries in 1967 and 1968

But it did not last. And while initially showing a decided bias against female rock musicians --

-- with the Gallant Gals appearance in the Riverdale Music scene possibly inspiring Veronica to form her own group --

-- Veronica and The Groovers quickly evolving into the more stream-lined set The Veronicas -- made up of Veronica, Betty, and a never set third member --

-- and despite Reggie's snide comments on and low regard for The Veronicas, as too the opinions expressed by members of that group toward the music of The Archies --

The Archies soon found the need for a female vocalist, and so poached Betty out of the band -- spelling the end for The Veronicas.

The record is a little hazy on how Veronica ended up in the band. But once there it was set -- the three member Archies expanded to five members. Except for some instances where for plot purposes when they needed to jettison Jughead or Reggie. As too a hefty backlog of stories written when there were three members. Otherwise --

As with the dynamics of any band, Creative Differences and fights reared their head behind the scenes. But this too marks for creative energy.

After much struggle, and missing a shot to get on Johnny Carson -- the band was able to once more lean on Mr. Lodge's connections -- wearing him down through incessant pleading -- to get a hearing with Don Kirshner ...

And from there it went. To the top of the charts in 1969. Where Archie and his group would learn again the high price of fame, as sitting at the top of the Riverdale Music scene they found that rival musical acts would stop at nothing to elbow their way past them. Freek and Weirdo. B.G. and the Scurvys. The Three Tones. Joker's Wild. Cabaret singer Jezebel. Ruthless in their jostling against their prime competition.

Not to mention having their eyes open and naivete shattered when experiencing the deeds of their unscrupulous business associates.

As for the cast-aways of earlier formations of the band, Dilton and Moose and a shaggy haired kid had an unsuccessful band named The Diltons.

And though Moose was not able to deal with the rejection and quickly dropped out of the music business, Dillton kept at it -- through a couple failures

moved on through his scientific theory and approach in engineering music,

until after much fine-tuning, he finally hit gold, and was able to hire some musicians to fill out a successful prog rock project.

No clue on what became of the third member of the group, or of the various members of Archie, Reggie, and Veronica's earlier band attempts.

New Fic Coming Tomorrow...

As @middleagedresidentofriverdale noted earlier, a collaborative 1990s AU is in the works! We’ll be posting Chapter 1 tomorrow, but here’s another teaser from our WIP.

*****************************************

“Shit, my backpack.”

“I’ll get it,” Jughead volunteers.

“It’s locked in the car.”

“Okay, so give me your keys.”

This will be easier said than done. The keys are tucked inside the front right pocket of Betty’s cutoffs, but her right hand is completely out-of-commission and her left nearly so.

Taking a breath, Betty stretches her partially free hand towards her pocket but only manages to brush her fingertips across the outer seam.

Jughead watches her struggle, his expression unreadable. “Is there, um, anything I can help you with?”

Betty is dying internally of embarrassment, but tries to retain her composure. She’s pretty sure she’s failing at this, too.

“Uh, yeah,” she concedes, even as her fingers continue their futile wriggling. “Canyoureachinmypocketformykeys?”

She swears she sees Reggie smirking gleefully in her peripheral vision. She resolves never to look at him again, which will be easier if she falls into a hole and stays there until she’s dead.

Jughead’s brows knit together in confusion. “Sorry, I didn’t quite catch that.”

Betty sighs and lifts her eyes skyward. “My keys are in my pocket. I need you to get them for me. If you don’t mind. Please. If you do mind, I can–”

“Okay,” Jughead agrees, his voice slightly uneven. He offers additional reassurance. “I don’t mind. Really.”

Betty risks a glance at him and notes that the tips of his ears are flaming red. She’s pretty sure it’s not a sunburn.

She then remembers his earlier insistence that he doesn’t burn.

Jughead steps forward, close enough that Betty can feel the warmth radiating off of his body.

“So, where do you want me?” he asks huskily. “I mean, what pocket are they in?”

“Front right,” Betty grits out.

She hears Jughead’s breath hitch as he delicately slips his fingers behind the curved seam of her pocket. After what seems like an eternity, they hit paydirt.

Fight Response Pt 2

Summary: Riverdale, Reggie/Male reader, Pt 2 to Flight response, Reggie’s POV, Reggie decides to pretend he doesn’t know reader is his soulmate

I’m not going to speak to him; stupid Southsider thinking he can fake being my soulmate. That must be it, he was just faking. I shiver a little at denying my soulmate. I’m nervous and trying to convince myself that he’s not actually mine; that the universe wouldn’t play such a cruel joke on me.

Of course the day after fucking Archie has to go spouting about he and Veronica freaking Lodge are soulmates and they discovered it when she playfully slapped Archie after he told a joke. As if Archie Andrews couldn’t get anymore perfect and well liked by the school and town; meanwhile I’m slipping further and further from Riverdale’s good graces.

It takes only two days of watching them for me to get sick of it and angry every time I look at them smiling. I can’t help but feel a tinge of jealousy, how dare Archie get to parade around his soulmate while I’m stuck hiding mine and trying not to let it out that he’s a Southside Serpent. It’s an absolute joke that the soulmate I managed to get with was a Southsider; but Betty has the same issue and most people don’t seem to be bothered by Jones; so maybe most people won’t be bothered by Y/N.

I decide that I’m going to fight fire with fire and to hell with Y/N’s apparent avoidance of me. I know it’s probably because I shoved him but whatever. He’ll be lucky to have me back in his life as his soulmate. I try to push away how Archie always gets everything; he may get things handed to him but I’ll work for what I want. Even if it means looking bad for a little bit, having a soulmate being a Southside Serpent can’t be good to too many people but they’ll come around.

”Y/N hey..” I start thinking catching him at lunch is a good idea, instead he turns and runs. Asshole.

“Y/N!!! WAIT!” I shout after him but he’s already jumped on his bike and is speeding away from the pop’s parking lot.

“So much for your southside soulmate.” It’s Betty who laughs and Archie joins in.

“Shut up, he is my soulmate.”

“Oh sure the guy that runs from you everytime you so much as breathe is your freaking soulmate. I’ll believe it when I see it.” Jughead laughs and I scowl at him.

“He is; I’ll prove it, one of you hit me!”

“Reggie, we're not going to do that.”

“Well then you’ll have to take my word that we’re the perfect soulmate couple, unlike a certain pair that are fighting.” I smirk and Archie sinks a little knowing I’m talking about him and Veronica; they’d gotten into a huge fight at school and both had left early clearly distressed. I hated how pleased it made me. And least Y/N wasn’t fully ignoring me now; he seemed to be aware that we were soulmates and that meant I wasn’t going to harm him; mty now vocal assurance we were soulmates was also probably protecting him a good bit, at least from the other Bulldogs, I hadn’t felt anything even close to the sting from a slap or a punch so I assumed the Serpents either didn’t care or weren’t bothered causing Y/N pain over us having a bond.

It takes a week for me to spread it around the school, that we’re perfect, that we’re made for each other, that despite being a southsider and a northsider; truly on opposite sides unlike Jones and Cooper we were overcoming the odds to be together and be happy.

Y/N while he doesn’t avoid me seems to vocally deny we’re together; i wonder if maybe he’s against dating a guy but we wouldn’t be soulmates if he was, at least I don’t think so.

“Y/N hey, how’re..”

“Good, gonna be late to class.”

I’m okay with him ignoring me but then Andrews has to put his head into it and tries to convince me that I’m making you uncomfortable and if we were really soulmates that I wouldn’t be doing that. I tell him to stay out of my business and for a moment I think he does but then I hear your shout and realize he’s shoved me into the locker. Of course I have to relatialte, to make sure everyone knows that you and I are actually soulmates, sharing pain. So of course I punched him. He shouts; but Veronica doesn’t, she just tries to pull me off him. He slaps me again, or maybe Veronica does; either way you scream again and everyone pauses, finally realising what I was trying to say all along, that we’re soulmates. Your scream also brings a revelation; that Veronica hasn’t gotten hurt at all, that despite Archie having a black eye Veronica doesn’t seem phased at all.

They were faking. I try my best to avoid being too smug, but with them exposed as faking and you finally talking to me, seeing what I was trying to do I think that everything is okay now.

Take Me Back (To The Night We Met) - Coming Soon!

“So why did you wait so long, huh? That night, when I came and apologized to you for our fight, that was why you were crying, wasn't it?” Betty sucked in a breath and nodded. She felt her heart crack as he yelled, “So why didn’t you tell me right then?! If you really loved me, you would have been honest!”

“GOD DAMMIT, JUG! I WAS SCARED, OKAY?!” she shouted back before collapsing to the floor and bawling, the weight of everything hitting her all at once. 

She hugged her body tightly, desperately trying to keep herself from breaking further as she whimpered, “I didn’t want to lose you too...” 

Jughead felt his fury plummet to the ground with him as he sank to his knees in front of her, gathering her into his arms and allowing her to cry into his neck. She clung to the flannel he wore, whispering words, begging for his forgiveness. He stroked her hair and shushed her, rocking her as she cried.

“Shhh. Betts, don’t cry... I know-- you made a mistake... I know you didn’t want to hurt me... We’ll get through this, I promise. I love you so much... it’ll be okay... we’ll be okay,” he murmured into her hair, soothing her pain despite his own. 

After what seemed like an eternity, her tears finally slowed but her grip on him never loosened. He could hear her breath evening out, small hiccups escaping her as she tried to calm down. She trembled in his arms, his words soothing her tortured soul. 

He still loved her, despite her horrifying mistake, he still loved her...

“I don’t want you to hate me, Juggie... but I wouldn’t blame you if you did...” she murmured honestly. “I hate myself, so it’s okay if you hate me too...”

“Hey, Betty... I could never hate you, ever. Am I angry? Yes, but it’s not even so much about the kiss. Look at me,” he lifted her chin and gazed into her swollen tear-stained eyes, “I understand you weren’t thinking straight, okay? We’d both just been through a shit load of trauma and, as fucked up as it is, I can see how that would cause you to cling onto something familiar. Archie represents something from before our lives turned into a badly written teen drama,” he paused and sighed, pulling her back into his chest. “I’m more upset that you felt the need to hide it from me for so long... I thought we were past keeping secrets, Betts?”

“I wanted to tell you as soon as it happened, Juggie. And I tried a million times, but I was just so afraid of what would happen. I couldn’t bear the thought of you hating me, or thinking that it was in any way your fault, or because I didn’t love you. I was stupid and I messed up...” Betty felt the tears falling again but she didn’t want to stop them. She needed to get it all out, she couldn’t hold onto it anymore.

“I understand that you were scared, Betts. I just wish you had told me sooner. I can’t promise I will be able to get past it quickly - and I’m definitely gonna kick Archie’s ass when I see him again - but I don’t want to lose what we have over a meaningless, trauma-induced kiss. I already told you that once and I still mean that, Betty,” Jughead lifted his hands, cradling her cheeks in his palms before kissing her forehead. “I mean it, I love you and don’t want to lose you. We can work through this, but I just need some time.” 

“I’m so sorry, Juggie. I will do anything to make this up to you, anything,” Betty laid her head on his shoulder and sighed heavily. She was grateful for the chance to make things right and move past this together but she knew it was going to take a lot of work. She was fully prepared for this to be an uphill battle, one that would hopefully make them stronger in the end. 

“Betts, I have to ask...” he murmured, causing her to brace for the worst, “Does Veronica know about this?”

“No,” she breathed a sigh, “I wanted to tell you first. And I’m almost certain that Arch-- I mean, I don’t think he told her either. God--” she choked, “she’s never going to forgive me for this...”

“I’m not gonna lie, Betty, that’s a strong possibility. However, she might not hate you. Either way, she still deserves to know about the kiss. She’s your best friend, she needs to know what happened between you and Archie. Especially if Archie was the one who instigated everything after and wanted to take things further,” Jughead remarked, a small growl escaping his throat when he said his name. 

“Hey, hey, hey... I love you, Juggie. Only you,” Betty whispered and leaned up, kissing him softly to show him that he is the only one she has ever wanted. “It’s only ever going to be you, Jug.”

“I know.”

Chapter One Coming To AO3 Tomorrow!

A/N:

This story is a complete canon divergent (starting after 4x17) that negates everything we know so far. No crazy superhero powers, obsessed serial killers, rabies fever dreams, or anything of the sort.

Now, I'm warning y'all now: this fic handles some heavy topics that could be triggering to some people and is angsty AF, but I’m hoping that once it’s complete, y’all will love it. (Don't worry, I will throw up a trigger warning at the beginning and will put them in the tags.)

Listen, I seriously poured my heart, soul, and even a butt load of tears into this one guys, so coming soon: My take on how the S5 time-jump should have been…

[petalsmooth]

Ever notice when Tabitha makes a rare decision to be selfish, it revolves around pursuing and loving Jughead? 

In just about every other word, thought or deed she puts others first often without them even being aware of it. She doesn’t seek glory. She offered free meals to the strikers and with nothing expected in return. This is a woman who wants to expand her business and probably could if she were more selfish but...she wants to expand her business to help the town and its people. This means she foregoes insurance payments so she can employ more workers or gives food away. The only time you heard her put profit first was initially mentioning Jughead had to order something for the wi-fi but that was imo because she pegged him as someone of privilege erroneously. Soon as she realized he was down on his luck, sincere in his desire to work and not out to take advantage of her grandfather her attitude changed.

She helps anyone, no questions asked generally even though they don’t return the favor with same generosity. At cost to her time, her establishment, her financial well being. 

The ONLY real time she is selfish and puts HER desire first is with Jughead. This isn’t to say she hasn’t been selfless with him too, she clearly has been. It’s just...she wants him. She cares about him. She’s in love with him. 

SHE was the one who kissed him first and only pulled back as sensed he wasn’t ready for a relationship just yet. She still sort of pushed for one in their talk in the diner but agreed to table it (for then) until he resolved his past. Prior to this she had been flirting with him almost since they met. Even when she thought he using her diner for a lark (at best writing inspiration) when inquiring about a job, she clearly was attracted to him. She checked him out when he spoke to her.

She was a little insecure about where she stood with him and if he was ready for a relationship but still wasted no time presenting him as a boyfriend to her parents...or even further back after their talk jumped right in to stake a claim with Jessica. Even when he went missing and she applied for help to Betty she made clear to slip in to the ex- that Jughead had hit on HER. She wanted Betty to know that he had expressed interest in HER (Tabitha). There is NO other reason needed to bring that up otherwise.

Despite a weak protest if the timing was right, Tabitha really wasn’t hard to convince to be his girlfriend. And she had admitted flat out the feelings were there for her. No pretense on that part. Then when finally together it doesn’t take long for her to ask him to move in with her.

When Jughead loses his hearing, she goes back through time ostensibly I assume to see how to correct it. Stunned to find he dies. Then goes through over a thousand scenarios desperate to find the ONE that keeps him with her. I think it would be very interesting if there were one were they defeat Percy and another where he lives, which she’d choose? I don’t think would be an automatic answer for a woman otherwise almost perfect.

Because WHEN he dies, even though she tries to be unselfish for his sake, she couldn’t do it. She needed him. She wanted him. She loves him and wants him back even if fated to die in a few days. She NEEDS those few days and she takes them. Selfishly. Not to stop Percy either, that was just an excuse which she admits. Because she follows it up by saying the real reason was because she wanted him back. Then apologizes for being selfish because she knew may not be what he wanted. Even when being selfish, she still cares about how the impact of her decision affects him and is willing to accept his judgement on it. She was honest about her decision with him and did not try at all to try to deny him his right to feel however he felt by emphasizing the pretense of the battle as the real reason she did it. She did not try to emotionally manipulate him. She just said this is how I felt without you, this is about me needing you and I hope you’ll understand and forgive me for once putting myself first because I love you. But I won’t lie, manipulate, guilt or involve a sense of righteousness to deny YOU the right to feel what you feel about it.

I love Tabitha Tate. 

I love her and I love the way she loves. It’s the opposite of the destructive and toxic relationships most of the others have. Even when selfish, it’s not expressed in a harmful way. She’s just a woman who loves a man and had a chance to love him for a couple more days and that’s very relatable. Unlike another blond, she didn’t selfishly manipulate a situation into stealing a body to use for own means. Unlike yet another blond did not betray people she claimed to love by sneaking behind their back to engage in an affair. She did not lie, cheat, steal or betray anyone. She didn’t use him, she didn’t hold a grudge against him for not instantly jumping to return knowing he’d die. She just loves him and did the one thing I think anyone who has lost someone would like to do if given the chance. It’s a temptation that would be very hard to pass up and though she tried...she couldn’t.

Jughead has never been loved like this before, and I love that he is now. 

[bireggiemantle]

okay so. I have a beronica jennifer's body au now because what is high school age beronica if not the pinnacle of a toxic codependent frenemies situation. (au description below the cut)

in this au veronica is needy and betty is jennifer. it takes place around early season two. the drive in is about to close for good and as one last hurray, a small indie band decides to put on a concert there. betty's been following the band for a while now, so she's excited to go, and makes it into a night out for her and veronica. unfortunately the venue catches fire, and in the midst of the chaos the band manages to persuade betty to leave with them. veronica tries to protest, but betty insists that she can take care of herself, so she gets into the van with them.

obviously they end up sacrificing her for the promise of fame and success, but unlike jennifer, betty fights back. she gets as far as wrestling the knife from the singer and stabbing him in the leg, but ultimately it isn't enough, and they kill her on the banks of sweetwater river. since betty isn't a virgin though, she lives, except there is now a succubus inhabiting her body.

on the walk home she runs into kevin, who's out in the woods because grindr isn't a good enough in riverdale I guess. bettys overwhelmed with this weird hunger, and since nobody except her knows where kevin is, the demon takes hold and she kills and eats kevin.

the next day comes and the entire town appears to be on hold. it's a suffocatingly silent memorial for all the people that died (notably, midge is one of them) and more than that, it's a day dedicated to wallowing in fear. jason blossom's death is still fresh in their minds, fred andrews is hospitalized over potentially a fatal gunshot wound, and now a fire took the lives of multiple high schoolers during what was supposed to be a fun event.

I think betty ends up killing moose in a similar way to how jennifer killed that jock in canon, and shortly after his death both his and kevin's bodies are found. this causes the blackhood to put a temporary hold on releasing his letter, because hal doesn't want his own threats to be muddled with the cannibalistic killer terrorizing the town.

another notable thing with this au is that I think betty treats this demonic part of herself as it is a separate entity entirely, and uses it as a scapegoat for all for her bad actions, like a more extreme version of dark betty. it's easy for her to act like the only reason she's capable of killing people or manipulating people is because of the succubus, especially since she doesn't want to grapple with the notion that she might not be a good person.

betty ends up killing jughead as the colin stand in. she's starving, and desperate, and shortly after the vughead hot tub kiss she lures him into the woods and snaps. it isn't like the other deaths aren't serious, but this one really hits hard.

betty doesn't know how to handle her guilt, so she creates an even starker divide between herself and the succubus, acting like she had no choice in the matter and that jughead's death couldn't be her fault. this helps her deal with the grief.

its around this time that veronica really starts to figure everything out, and after betty tells her about the initial sacrifice, veronica is 100% certain that betty is the one responsible for what happened to kevin, moose, and jughead.

cue the winter dance.

its been a while since betty's killed, and that deep seeded desperation is poking through again. she and veronica have gotten into a few huge fights prior to this, and the tension between them is high, so that combined with her hunger convinces betty to pursue archie as her next victim.

hes in a pretty fragile state since his best friend died about a month ago and similarly to needy and chip in canon, veronica broke up with him for his own protection earlier that week, so it's easy for betty to lead him away to the river.

veronica confronts her there, but it's too late. archie bleeds out, and veronica realizes that this isn't betty anymore, and that she can't be saved.

unlike with needy I don't think veronica is discovered right away. since alice isn't home, veronica has time to leave, but she just doesn't. all of her friends are dead, and she had to watch betty spiral into madness before taking betty's life herself, so the guilt and the grief and the loneliness gets to her, and she accepts defeat, laying besides betty's corpse and crying until alice finally shows up and finds her.

-

that's the rough description of the au! sorry it's so long, it follows the movie almost plot for plot so there's a lot to cover lmaoo. if you guys have any questions about it feel free to lmk! I always love talking about my aus :)

Yandere Chic (3/5)

Word count ; 3.9k

*Edited.

I’d been kept in the loop by Betty over text recently, and she understood why I was being aloof and distant. I simply didn’t want to be around Chic. He often spammed me with messages, and sometimes when I was home, he even came knocking on my door. I learned that Chic wasn’t a product of Alice and Hal and other minor details. But I tried my best to focus on my new, lovely boyfriend, Sweet Pea, instead of having my entire life revolve around a family I wasn’t even a part of. I was still doing well in school despite the personal problems, and I’d been participating in a lot of community service. So, in reality, I wasn’t doing too bad.

I was doing some homework on the front porch when I noticed that a large group of Serpents, including my Sweets, was breaking into the Cooper household. I gasped and curiously watched as they piled into the household. I had a feeling that whatever was going on had to do with Chic, so I made my way over. When I forced my way in, two sleazy people shoved their way past. I warily glanced at the, managing to sneak into the house.

“Thank you, Jughead. Thank your friends for me.”

“We’re Serpents. It’s what we do.”

Serpents began filtering out of the house, but Sweet Pea noticed me and stood next to me. He affectionately wrapped his arms around my shoulders as I advanced into the living room.

“Is everything okay?” I asked.

“We… we’re alright,” Alice spoke reluctantly. “Betty, you’ve been telling me something I didn’t want to hear, and I’m sorry. Chic… you’ve put us in danger twice. I think that you should do what you said, and leave.”

Sweets whispered in my ear,” Thank god, that creep’s finally hitting the road.” I couldn’t help but press myself securely against his back.

“I will. I’ll find a place,” Chic promised.

“Do it quickly, because you’re not going to spend another night here.” Alice was clearly on the verge of tears, so Betty went to comfort her. Chic rose to his feet and made sure to shove into my boyfriend as he passed.

It went without saying, I Madde sure to keep Alice company that evening.

~~~

The house hadn’t been any less chaotic, even with Chic’s flight. The Black Hood was back. And I thought that when Betty urgently called me and told me to go to her house one afternoon, it would be about that. Not Chic.

I met up with Betty and Jughead as they rushed into the house. I almost keeled over from a heart attack when I saw Chic leaning against the kitchen counter, but the other two charged ahead. “We should’ve gone to the Sisters weeks ago and found this out,” Betty exclaimed passionately.

“Found out what?” Chic asked casually.

“Mom! What is he doing here?”

“I took Chic to give this statement and invited him for dinner.”

“Great!” Betty shouted sarcastically, shoving a blue folder onto the island. “Except he’s not Chic!”

“Enough of the melodrama,” Alice groaned.

I was standing back, fiddling with my fingers. So Chic wasn’t who he said he said he was? Should’ve seen that coming. A creep and a liar.

“Jughead and I paid a visit to the Sisters of Quiet Mercy.” She shoved a photo into Alice’s face. “That is your real son, Mom. Not this con artist.”

Alice looked heartbroken. “I don’t - I don’t understand.”

Chic intervened desperately. “I do. Betty’s been out to get me. She never wanted a brother, and she hated when I became involved with Y/n —“

“You’re not my brother! And she’s not interested, pervert!”

Chic suddenly snatched up a knife, waving it wildly. Alice was struck, and the house erupted in shrieks. Luckily, though, Alice was able to hit Chic with a pan and knocked hi out while he was waving the knife at Jughead. I was in total awe, but I assisted the family in doing something rather shady: carrying Chic down to the basement and tying him up to a chair. After that, the Coopers and Jughead asked me to go home. I’m not sure what ever happened to Chic, but I never saw or talked to him again. He completely disappeared.

It was nice, though. Life returned almost to normal. Sweet Pea and I had a healthy and serious relationship, so much so that during December, I moved in with him. We lived peacefully in the trailer park. For a while, we fell into a pattern. Sweets drove me to college, I studied and worked, he drove me home, and most nights we either went on a date at Pop’s or were invited to Alice’s for dinner. Life was normal and happy. No Chic, no Cooper household drama, and no father-daughter drama. I had cut out a majority of what was toxic and chaotic out of my life. I was thriving.

One day, though, my homeostasis was disrupted. Sweet Pea and I had just finished doing some… couple activities when Betty called me up. It was already nine p.m., so I knew it had to be serious. “Betty, what’s wrong?” I inquired eagerly, struggling to pull up my jeans with one hand.

“You know talking out loud helps clear my thoughts, I hope you don’t mind. The weirdest murder happened, you won’t believe it,” she started. “Dilton Doiley and his friend, Ben, were found dead in the woods. Maybe it was suicide, maybe murder, but they were doing some crazy ritual. They had these… weird carvings in their backs and were found with blue lips. Ben barely made it, but Dilton died to poison. The circumstances are completely unknown, it’s crazy. Jug and I are leaving in a few minutes to investigate Dilton’s secret bunker.”

“Sweets and I are going on our late-night walk in a few minutes, too. I’ll call you if I see anything suspicious, okay? Stay safe, Betty,” I warned.

“Same goes for you. You’re one of my best friends,” she replied.

Sweet Pea wrapped his arms around my waist, peppering some kisses against the nape of my neck. He stole the phone from my in the process. He sent me a smirk and interrupted,” Bye, Betty, I’m stealing my girlfriend from you now.” And with that he hung up.

“You’re lucky we were about to hang up,” I pouted.

“What mystery was she telling you about this time?” Sweets inquired as we exited the trailer and started walking into the woods, hand in hand.

“Do you know who Dilton Doiley and Ben something was?” I began.

“… I don’t like the use of ‘was,’” he noticed suspiciously.

“Yeah, ‘was.’ Betty said that when Jug was in the forest on a walk last night, he found their dead bodies. They were doing some crazy ritual and had all sorts of markings etched in their backs. They apparently drank poison. Ben barely survived. Obviously, Betty and Jug are on the case now.”

“That’s fuckin’ terrifying. Goddammit, why can’t Riverdale ever just be normal?” he groaned.

I sighed in agreement. “Yeah, first thing I’m gonna do when I graduate is get the fuck outta this town. It’s gotta be cursed or something —“

We both froze when we heard a twig snap to our left. We turned, confused, as there was nothing there but shrubbery. “Maybe it’s an animal,” I muttered, turning on my phone’s flashlight. However, what we came face to face with was no animal.

Towering at at least seven feet tall was a figure made hip of twigs and branches. But what was most unsettling, was that it had a wooden mask stained with red. My eyes trailed up and down the… monster, taking in various details, before I finally glanced at Sweets again.

“You see that?”

“Yeah.”

“I think we need to fucking run now.”

The monster took a taunting step towards us, and we took off from the direction we came. Even when we made it back to our trailer, Sweet Pea reminded me that we had found the creature not too far from us, and that we should go somewhere else. Of course, the first place that came to mind was Pop’s Diner.

By the time we stumbled through the front door, I had calmed down enough to try and register what the hell we’d seen. Luckily, Betty and Jughead were there too. They seemed just as out-of-breath. In front of them, they’d drawn a picture of the monster of scratch paper.

“Guys!” I called, plopping next to Betty. “You saw it too?”

“Yeah,” Jug said. “It was the Gargoyle King, if I had to assume. Luckily for us, he doesn’t run very fast.”

“What did you guys see?” Betty inquired.

“Taller than anybody I’ve ever seen around town. They probably use stilts, right?” I began.

“Yeah. Plus, they weren’t too far from the trailer park. It’s why we had to come here. Maybe it’s a Ghoulie exacting revenge?” Sweet Pea added.

“What’s this Gargoyle King you mentioned?” I asked curiously.

“Long story short, Dilton and Ben Buttons got involved with a cultish game. Last time I saw Dilton, he told me that the Gargoyle King was real. That… thing in the woods is the closest thing to it we can get,” Jughead explained.

“Ethel’s involved, too. It was too tall, but again, the stilt idea exists. She also isn’t answering our calls.”

They started investigating a map while Sweet Pea and I took a breather. It wasn’t as though we had much to offer to their investigation. After half an hour or so, I checked my phone. “Sweets, we should probably go home. Whoever this Gargoyle King is, they hardly seem like a threat. They walk slowly and clearly tend to skulk in the woods. I’m fuckin’ tired, please?”

Sweet Pea looked on edge. “Yeah, you’re right. We’ll tell you yes if we learn anything that’s helpful, okay? Good night.”

We said our good-byes before we headed home. We both had a very hard time sleeping that night.

~~~

In the middle of one of my classes, I was surprised to receive a text from Jughead asking if I could help him with the case. He told me that in order to get closer to Ethel and learn more for the case, he had to play a game with Ethel. But, for some reason, Ethel asked for me to be there, too. She hadn’t specified why, and we’d never even met before. I trusted Jug, though, so I agreed.

“This looks like the place,” Jug said, motioning to a weird pipe dug into the ground.

“What the fuck, Dilton definitely had a few screws loose,” I commented as we climbed down.

“No kidding.”

When we were both inside, the first thing I took note of was the dozens, if not hundreds of candles. It was rather spooky. “Ethel,” Jughead stated, which made me cast my gaze to the front. Down a short hallway was a room, and in the middle of the room, a table. Sat at that table was a girl with brown-orange hair and a big bow, but what was odd about her attire was that she was wearing medieval garb.

“Welcome to your first game. Your entry point to the realm of Gryphons and Gargoyles. The magical kingdom of Eldervair. First things first, join me.”

Jug and I kneeled down at the table, occasionally sending each other questioning glances. “Do you want to be the Radiant Knight, Arcane Invoker, or Hellcaster?”

“Uh, Hellcaster.”

“I’ll be Arca —“

“You do not choose,” Ethel interrupted. “Sit here, next to me. You are already the destined Gargoyle Queen.” I did as told, situation myself next to the strange girl. “Good choice,” she continued, directing her attention back to Jughead. “That was Ben’s avatar. I was supposed to ascend with him, but he betrayed me and finished the game with Dilton.”

“I’m sorry, Ethel,” I apologized sympathetically.

“Doesn’t matter. Pick a quest card. Let’s get started.”

The game began, but only for Jughead. I was mostly concerned about why the hell I was the Gargoyle Queen, when I had no association in any of this drama except that I was friends with Betty and my boyfriend was a Serpent. I tuned back in to the conversation when Ethel spoke,” Two chalices sit before you.”

“Ethel!” I exclaimed. “No way is he doing that!”

“You wanted to prove your worthiness,” she retorted with a shrug.

Jughead seemed to be pondering it. “If I do this, you promise to give me the scripture?”

“I promise. The King as my witness.”

I couldn’t help but scan the room, paranoid. Jughead picked up one of the chalices and chugged it. I watched, chilled to the core, waiting for him to drop dead. I knew there’d be no convincing him to stop, however, I was relieved when he seemed fine.

“I’m fine. Rulebook, now,” Jug demanded.

“You have to kiss me first.”

“My god, are you serious?”

“It’s in the scripture. The Hellcaster kisses the princess or doesn’t get the treasure.”

The ritual was complete, and we were both relieved and ready to get the hell out of there, until we realized Ethel had drank the chalice with poison.

~~~

It was the fault of that stupid game. Sweet Pea came home a week ago with a manual for Gryphons and Gargoyles, and ever since, he’d gotten completely addicted to it. It bothered me, especially knowing the outcome of the game was almost certain death. From the moment we got home to the middle of the night, he played it with his friends. Somehow, even Jughead had gotten absorbed in it. Betty hadn’t been in touch either, but I presumed she had a lot more investigating to do now that she was down a detective.

I sighed, shutting my laptop and setting it on the table next to me. The chilled midnight air nipped my skin and I let out a yawn, finally throwing the blanket over me. I hated not having Sweets in the bed next to me. It made me feel lonely. I was tired, and clearly Sweet Pea wasn’t coming home anytime soon, so why not sleep outside and wait?

I set my alarm and started to doze off to the music of the forest. The wind brushed my hair around time to time, and occasionally, I heard a Serpent walking or talking in the distance. I turned on my side, cuddling my knees to my chest. Just as I was almost lulled into sleep, I picked up the vague sound of slow, approaching footsteps. Maybe Sweet Pea finally decided to sleep. But even if it was him, I wasn’t in the mood to be around him. I stirred a bit as they came closer.

It really must’ve been Sweet Pea, because he paused right next to my seat. I was confused, though, because it sounded as though leaves were rustling from right next me. It became rather insistent, and he wasn’t moving away. Suddenly, I felt something cold and metallic touching the top of my head.

My eyes shot open, and dread consumed me as I saw the looming figure of the Gargoyle King. I sat up instantly, letting out a shrill scream. Lights in the trailers around starting turning on, and the King turned and left the scene. I was left paralyzed after tipping my chair and collapsing into the small table, eyes glued to the evacuating figure.

F.P., Fangs, Jughead, and a group of Serpents came to the scene, and the boys helped me up. “Y/n, what happened? Did you see the Gargoyle King?”

Sweet Pea pushed his way through the crowd, pulling me into a warm hug. “Y - yeah. I was asleep, but I heard someone coming towards me. I thought it - it was Sweets, but then he dropped something on my head. I woke up and he was just… standing there!” I stuttered fearfully, clutching my boyfriend’s shirt tightly.

Jughead weaved around me, leaned over, and picked up something. “W - what is that?” I asked. The crowd was starting to disappear, bout a few of my friends stuck around to comfort me.

“A tiara.” He inspected it in his hands. “I guess Ethel was serious about that whole ‘Gargoyle Queen’ thing.”

“What?” Sweet Pea shouted angrily. “What the fuck are you talking about? Are you telling me she’s in danger again?”

“Sweet Pea, chill —“

“Shut up. Are you kidding me? We have a serial killer hunting my girlfriend, and you’re telling me to chill?”

I pushed myself away and placed my hands on his cheeks. “Sweets… let’s just go to bed, okay? It’s late. Jughead and Betty will take care of it… F.P., too.”

“Yeah. We’ll keep an eye out for any Gargoyle King. Make sure to stay inside, too,” Jug said, patting my shoulder.

“…Fine,” Sweet Pea conceded, grabbing my arm and pulling the both of us into the trailer. He strictly locked the door and sighed. “Goddammit. I should’ve come home sooner.”

“It’s not your fault. I just wish you weren’t so obsessed with a… board game,” I admitted.

“I… I’m sorry. It’s just really fun.You should join.”

“It’s the reason two kids are dead, drugs are becoming a thing again, and Ethel is in the hospital. I don’t want you playing that game, Sweets! Not you or any of your friends. Even Jughead’s lost it, he’s hardly solving the problem!”

He massaged his forehead. “It’s not the board game killing them, it’s that Gargoyle King or whatever the fuck! And we’re not using the Fizzle Rocks, I promise! Can we just… go to bed, babe? It’s late and we have classes tomorrow.”

I bit my lip. “…Sure.”

~~~

Yeah, Sweet Pea’s definitely not obsessed with that board game. It’s definitely normal that we never talk, he never sleeps, and I even have to ride my bike to school. Two weeks had passed, and it had been a solid three days since I’d seen him. If I could’ve known when we first started dating that our relationship was fragile enough to be ruined by a knock-off Dungeons and Dragons, I never would’ve been interested.

So, just like normal, I had woken up at two a.m. alone in bed. I couldn’t sleep. I was always worried that the Gargoyle King would break in. To be fair, though, the last time Sweet Pea actually paid attention to me was when said King attacked me.

It was suffocating in the trailer. There weren’t any lurking dangers outside the trailer, so it was fine to step outside. I pulled on a sweatshirt and went out. The cold air nipped the my exposed face. I took out my phone and scrolled aimlessly through my gallery - I had over seven thousand memes, and only memes - for a few minutes. The cold grass tickled my bare feet, although I didn’t mind the sensation.

“That’s the queen,” a deep voice suddenly spoke, and several people emerged from behind the trailer. I dropped my phone from shock and shrieked, trying to reenter the trailer. However, a number of hands grabbed at me, pulling me back. One hand covered my mouth, another had my neck, but a majority of them gripped my arms and waist. I struggled against the cloaked figures with scary masks, tears slinking down my cheeks. I was being dragged away, and obviously nobody had heard my cries, because the rest of the trailer park remained silent and asleep. At some point, my arms were pinned behind me and only one of the men felt the need to hold me. I was still struggling, trying to slobber on or bite the hand against my mouth, but it was in vain. Somehow, I was dragged up an entire hill, and I dreaded when we passed by some lit torches and I was pushed into a cult circle.

I scrambled to my feet, realizing I was totally enclosed by ambiguous figures in gargoyle masks. There was at least ten people. And, only a few feet away, was the Gargoyle King. Was this when I got sacrificed to a dude wearing a tree?

“Gag,” the King growled, clearly using a voice changer, and I stared at him in horror. I did what I could before I was grabbed again, letting a shrill scream rip, even if my voice cracked several times. However, I couldn’t prevent the white cloth that was tied around my mouth. I was forced towards the King, who reached out and grabbed my shoulders. I was turned around and my back was pressed against the twig figure.

“Bring the new recruit.”

Suddenly, a new figure emerged from the crowd, accompanied with two people that were carrying chalices. I knew where this was going. I struggled harder against the person. The masked recruit walked forward. It took shocking turn, though, because he shouted,” Now!”

Serpents emerged from every corner of the woods. “Gargoyles, run!”

The King let go of me while Serpents swarmed the area. My knees were jelly so I fell to the ground. I tore off the gag. Sweet Pea appeared at my side, and they’d somehow snatched one of the… Gargoyles, was it? I was hardly registering what was happening around me. My vision was blurred from sheer stress. I knew people were talking, but all I could focus on was Sweet Pea’s arms that were secured around me. I couldn’t stay at the trailer park any more. Sweets picked me up, to which I clutched onto him desperately. I guess at some point I passed out.

A few days later, I was staying with Betty. They were more than understanding when I called up, and Sweet Pea thought it would be a good idea, too. Betty was gone most of the time - it was adorable how brave and hardworking she was - so Alice and I spent most evenings knitting, playing monopoly, and watching movies. It was fairly therapeutic and felt like a break. I didn’t need to think about my busy boyfriend or the Gargoyle King; the most stressful thing consuming my life was schoolwork and leadership programs for community service.

I was cuddled up on the one-person couch, a warm hot coco cup in my grip, while I aimlessly watched a YouTube video. “Hi, Betty,” I called as the woman entered the house. Even while walking inside, she seemed to be deep in thought.

“Oh, hey, Y/n,” she greeted.

“Betty, there’s some leftovers in the kitchen,” Alice said. She was sat on the couch next to me doing some paperwork. Apparently she’d becoming more successful, a newswoman, and I was proud of her for that.

“Thanks, mom.” She made her way over.

It was only seven, but I was dreadfully tired, so I shut my laptop and just basked in the surrounding heat. I occasionally took a sip of hot coco, staring into space. “Are you alright, Y/n?” Alice asked.

“Yeah, just sleepy. I’m going to get ready for bed.”

I finished my drink and slowly rose to my feet, heading over to the downstairs bathroom. I washed my face and started brushing my teeth. I leaned over the sink to spit it out, when all of a sudden, the electricity went out. It was startling, so I quickly washed the rest of my mouth. I stood in the kitchen in a confused fashion.

“Betty, you stay here, I’ll check the power box,” Alice said from the front door.

“What’s going on?” I asked warily, hugging myself.

A flash of lighting boomed from outside, ad when Betty and Alice turned to me, they screwed unanimously. I was confused, stumbling back a bit. But I realized what was scaring them when I backed straight into a hard surface. Twigs rustled as two arms enveloped me tightly. I was too tired to scream - I’d ruined my throat from last time - so all I could do was try and push at them.

Betty said that I’d be fine, so the two of them ran up the stairs. The moment they were gone from view, the art unraveled themselves and the Gargoyle King backed away. I stumbled back, so confused by their decision, my brain apparently figured that the best next course of action was to faint.

Riverdale, Ep. 6x22 - Night of the Comet (Spoilers)

When I said they would hit the reset button at the end of this season, I figured they would go back to some point in time this century. Honestly, this felt like a series finale, except it wasn't. And it's really hard to say what will happen next because the ending is so, well, who knows. I would like to point out that Jughead seems to be wearing the clothes he wears in his hereafter.

But to start at the beginning, the comet it coming and Percival has trapped everyone in the town. Just go with it. And Cheryl is trying to figure out a way to save everyone, while everyone else is spending the last few moments with those they love. Oh, and Archie's mom decides to visit.

I'm not sure how to put this. For those who like certain couples, you will have some great moments. Archie proposes to Betty. She turns him down, but later proposes to him. Tabitha and Jughead go on one final "date" where they live a possible timeline where they get married and have kids.

We also have a moment where Heather confirms that, even though Toni and Fangs are together now, Cheryl and Toni are soulmates; destined to find each other again and again. So, that's one endgame confirmed.

And as this is all going on, all these characters are making decisions about their lives. Pops will become a franchise. Betty is leaving the FBI. But....

Here's the thing, Cheryl says she going to try to defeat the comet. However, if she's successful, the people she's keeping alive with her powers may die. Then, Veronica comes up with an idea to transfer all of their powers to Cheryl. Again, just go with it. Everybody sings a song as Cheryl tries to defeat the comet and....

We see Betty, Alice, Archie, Archie's mom, and Jughead all in 1950s garb. Jughead is writing everything down. Apparently, they've been transported back to 1950 (the way he says it implies that there's more then the five of them, but we don't know if it's everyone). They're all *snort* teenagers again. And only Jughead remembers their past. And that's it.

So, it's possible that everyone is in the 1950s. Or maybe only some of them. Again, Jughead is in his Sweet Hereafter costume, so maybe some (or all) of them did die and we're transported here. I honestly couldn't say as it's such a short scene.

Also, are they still connected to Rivervale, 'cause nothing has indicated the two universes split? And no, Percival going back to Rivervale wouldn't do it as that wasn't the cause for the universes to still be connected.

As for what happened before, it feels like they're bringing closure to things. Or, how do I put this? I would say that they have confirmed Cheryl and Toni are endgame because they do say that, even though Toni stayed with Fangs, they are destined to be together.

As for Archie and Betty or Jughead and Tabitha, I think it's a little less clear. And, oh how to explain this? If it hadn't been for Tabitha's and Jughead's story here....there is a show called Doctor Who. In the third season of the new series, there's a two part episode called Being Human. In it, The Doctor has a chance of living a mortal life with a woman, but he ends up giving it up in order to stop the enemy. The reason why I mentioning this is because in the episode, The Doctor uses his time powers in almost the exact same way, where he and Joan travel a possible timeline where and Joan lived together. The get married, they have kids, they grow old. And the way this show like to copy others...

And if I'm not sure about Jughead and Tabitha, then I can't be sure of anyone. Now, this is not to say that they aren't going to be together at the end of the series (God only knows how this will end at this point). But it wouldn't surprise me if, especially with these writers, this is the way that (if they do bring back the original couples), they can say there was also timelines where the other couples lived happily ever after.

I mean, I think make it very clear this is a reset (I think Jughead pretty much says it). But exactly what they're resetting and where everyone is...who knows? Probably not even the writers at this point. In short, this was an ending to this season. It isn't what I expected it would be in the sense that I thought they would just reset before Rivervale, but it clear is some sort of reset.
