K.E.W.K.: Okay, we should really answer some of these.... and talk about how we're getting home today...

L.S.S.: Yeah, I... kind of want to not be in this cabin as soon as possible....

[Anon]: [barely audible]....Can I come with?

K.E.W.K. and L.S.S.: NO-

[Anon]: Oh, psshh.... They were never going to die-

L.S.S.: How the hell was ANYBODY supposed to know that? You pulled out all of my fingernails! You tortured us both for weeks! You made me think my worst fucking fears were coming true...!!!

K.E.W.K.: You made me think that you mutilated and crucified him, then made me eat parts of him, and I was fully intending on killing you so that the both of us could live.....

[Anon]: ....Yeah, but did you DIIIIIIEEE??? NOoooooo....!! Jesus, it was all in good fun! Lighten up a little...

K.E.W.K.: ....

I know he only tried because he thought it was the only way to keep me safe. We know it wasn't now, but he couldn't have possibly known that then...

L.S.S.: Yeah... I still regret trying... and of course I didn't try to jump this month. I wouldn't ever leave Mitch alone with that prick willingly.... even when I thought the worst was happening, I couldn't just give up and run away. That's not my style at all [chuckling]

K.E.W.K.: [teary, chuckling]

[Anon]: Ugh, it's Halloween and you two are being all sappy...?

[sigh] That's an obvious one, Bitch- waterboarding isn't lethal if you're careful about it, but crucifixion is.

L.S.S.: Ugh, I can still taste the soap....

K.E.W.K.: Me too....

L.S.S.: We're holding up as good as you could expect us to, given the circumstances.... That's nice of you to offer, but we pretty much have things under control now. Now we just need to get this guy off our hands so we can go home...

K.E.W.K.: I'm SO ready to sleep in our own bed again....

Wait, a knife set? You mean another honeymoon gift...?

L.S.S.: Heh, we're going to have a lot of gifts to open when we get home...

K.E.W.K.: Tell Polly we send our love back, and for her to enjoy her new life as the cat queen~!

L.S.S.: [grumbling] ...Busy cutting off my balls?

K.E.W.K.: I guess it's.... better than some other things..?

L.S.S.: IT ISN'T WHEN THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT YOUR BALLS-

[Anon]: I WASN'T GOING TO CUT OFF YOUR BALLS, I WOULD HAVE JUST MADE IT LOOK LIKE I DID, GOD.... [rolls eyes]

L.S.S.: I have to admit, Mitchie... I'm pretty impressed.

K.E.W.K.: You are...?

L.S.S.: Yeah! Mitch, you were fucking hard-core. You took a chunk out of his neck like it was a friggin' salami, and then you forked him in the eye on your first shot!! You even got in a good line in before he started squealing.... I'm really proud of you. :]

K.E.W.K.: Aw, Sal, you're making me blush...

[Anon]: Yeah, that was.... [swooning] ..... but I'm still sad you didn't give me any on my forearm... I was really hoping for some bites...

K.E.W.K.: These [motions to L.S.S. bite scars] are not for you.... you can just draw them on again if you want them so bad >:/

[Anon]: Doing all that makeup is such a pain, though... :(

L.S.S.: Tough shit.

[Anon]: [whining]

K.E.W.K.: You know what? You're absolutely right. After all the shit we've been put through this month, me and Sally are both due for a mega dose of comfort and all the fluff we can handle! UwU

L.S.S.: Ugh, yes.... god, please...

[Anon]: WHAT?! BUT... IT'S HALLOWEEN! YOU GUYS CAN'T-

K.E.W.K.: And I would have drawn something really hard-core and super detailed in the spirit of the holiday, but SOMEONE has made me not want to do that... c:

[Anon]: [thrashing and screaming]

L.S.S.: [cackling] Should have just sent in those prompts, douche-sack....

K.E.W.K.: I still really appreciate you taking the time to send that ask in. I'm not super knowledgeable about that kind of thing, but it's almost all I could think about after I thought I'd... ugh.... [nauseated]

L.S.S.: I was so confused when you started talking about whiteboards and helping me eat and all that stuff, but it was still really, really sweet... [barely audible] would you have really done all that for me...?

K.E.W.K.: Of course I would...! I was thinking about how to help you learn the apartment layout so you wouldn't trip and how to make it easy for you to find things, getting in the habit of describing every little thing so you wouldn't feel like you were missing out, ways for us to communicate.... I... [tearing up] I was going to suggest us holding pinkies to mean 'I love you'....

L.S.S.: [tearing up] ....it already does... I would have done that without you saying it....

[Anon]: UGH!! YOU BOTH ARE RUINING THE VIBE- [muffled, indecipherable]

L.S.S.: We're fresh out of tape. We just keep jamming the sock back in... thanks for looking out for us all this time, Tiger. I know you tried to talk this guy down, and I appreciate it.

[Anon]: [spitting] ..... [groaning] god, you guys are so sensitive.... I made this event actually scary! I put the 'gore' in K.E.W.K.s goretober! You should be thanking me for keeping them from boring their following to death....

And, just so you know, those were roadkill I made into an art installation. I'm not THAT much of an asshole... [grumbling]

[Anon]: SEE? THEY had fun!! I told you~ :D

K.E.W.K. and L.S.S.: Drink your vinegar, Dumbshit :]

K.E.W.K. and L.S.S.: ........

K.E.W.K.: I was able to fuck him up un the moment, but I don't think I could cut his tongue out, no matter how annoying he is....

L.S.S.: And you already gouged out his eye...

[Anon]: I'll take whatever badge of honor Senpai wants to give me! Especially if it means they'll actually draw something good today...

K.E.W.K.: I'm drawing fluff, and you have enough 'badges of honor' already..... Cry harder about it. UwU

[Anon]: [SCREAMING]

11 questions game

tagged by @raptorlily, who prepared 11 questions for her tag-ees:

1. The core four + Kevin and Cheryl are attending a literary character party. What costume does each of them wear? Bonus: What costumes are the Southside Serpent characters wearing?

OH BOY. well, betty is elizabeth bennett. her instinct is obviously be nancy drew, but then decides she wants to play dress up a little bit. she tries valiantly to get jughead into a darcy couples costume, but his instinct is to just be sal paradise because he won’t have to buy anything for the costume. 

betty tells him that if she’s not going to be nancy, he should go outside the box too. he then decides on dressing like the titular mummy from jane loudon’s the mummy! (he’s still a weirdo, remember)

veronica goes as daisy buchanan if not purely for the extravagant opportunity to dress like a flapper, archie comes as jim hawkins from treasure island, cheryl bucks expectation and attends as a female robin hood (she already loves archery), and kevin is absolutely sherlock holmes. he’d look so natural in a trenchcoat!

2. What extracurricular activities are Reggie, Ethel, Fangs, Midge, Toni and Sweetpea involved in?

besides sports, reggie’s extracurricular activity is definitely selling ground up oregano to middle schoolers and telling them it’s weed. 

ethel is canonically a drama geek and that’s valid, but she’s also probably in band. i’m gonna go with....flutist. 

fangs is also canonically a drama geek and a regular geek (less we not forget jughead used a larping club to lure fangs out of a self-imposed suspension) so i honestly am just waiting for him and kev to start up their dungeons and dragons club. (wow they are perfect for each other tho??? a dorkier bughead)

midge (RIP) was probably into 4-H bc i can’t get the concept of “klump farms” out of my head. she seemed like a genuinely sweet person who also was a regular teenager and was a cheerleader and probably volunteered at hospitals too idk 

toni wanted to get laid so bad she became a cheerleader. or, ok, seriously i mean my headcanon is like, it’s bring it on, where toni was into gymnastics and dance in a v serious way but southside didn’t offer any curriculars that would allow her to do that, and she couldn’t afford gymnastics herself. turns out the closest thing riverdale has is cheerleading, which’ll do. 

sweet pea is probably the lowkey nerdiest of them all. i was joking earlier that he’s probably secretly into anime, but more seriously: feel like he’d go for basketball officially and also probably has an interest in engineering. i mean, that interest began with pipe bombs, but. yanno. ya dreams gotta start somewhere!!!

3. Give me three of your favourite headcanons for Reggie

had a crush on betty until high school

does his dumbest shit for his dad’s attention, painfully unsubtle about it

is cripplingly afraid of being alone, which is why he surrounds himself by teammates at all times and/or can’t get past the pack mentality. has difficulty being vulnerable in spite of all that, can’t be honest with himself and/or with others. 

4. It’s Saturday night and the core four are all hanging out by themselves at home. What is each of them up to?

betty is listening to the memory palace podcast while laying on her bed, feet crossed up in the air, doing her homework. cleaned her room earlier. wants to call polly. she doesn’t. stays up till two am for no reason other than her room is warm and full of golden light and it’s the only time the house is quiet. plugged back in her old nightlight, half out of spite after polly nearly threw it out, half genuinely. sometimes she thinks she’s still afraid of the dark. the irony isn’t lost on her. 

jughead is working on his novel, american crime story is playing on the TV in the background, a bag of popcorn slowly rotating in the microwave. the trailer is empty and he chooses to think his dad is at work. emails his sister. he doesn’t remember when, but they’ve stopped talking about their mom. his tattoo itches. toni told him not to scratch at it. 

veronica is drinking chamomile tea on a tray, scrolling through pinterest and making a european vacation mood board for the post-graduation trip she’d like to take with her friends. she wants to surprise them with it, all-expenses paid. she resists the urge to book flights years in advance. browses the barney’s website. doesn’t know why she gets such a thrill from online shopping. isn’t sure why she can’t stop. 

archie is in the garage, his fingers strumming aimlessly over the strings of his guitar. wonders why his mother can’t be a lawyer here in riverdale. isn’t sure if music was ever his own, or something he thought he should want, because he didn’t want to work construction. or worse, because a woman found it attractive. brought his history textbook out with the intention to study. doesn’t. practices wonderwall, even though jughead laughs whenever the song comes upon. 

5. What’s your headcanon for Jughead’s hat? Why does he wear it? What’s the origin story?

his mom made it when he was a kid, and growing up in threadbare clothes donated down the line of serpents or thrift store finds, it was the one thing that was truly his---made for him. with love. 

being scrawny and quiet and outgrowing his pants too fast to replace them already set him apart. might as well let the hat seal the deal. 

6. What is your Riverdale guilty pleasure ship? One that you don’t necessarily ship in canon but wouldn’t mind reading fanfiction for?

don’t think i have one, honestly? 

7. Can Chuck be redeemed in your eyes? Any caveats or things that would need to happen to make this count?

yeah, it’s really interesting answer this question post 2x18, but---yes, i definitely think chuck can be redeemed. i never wanted him to be a villain in the first place, for so, so many reasons. 

i mean, comics!chuck was a deliberate bucking of specific stereotypes that riverdale slid right back into without seeming to think about what it was they were saying by doing that. (related readings: x) and then the way they did it---ack. 

outside of the vacuum of comics vs. show, i think that where we’re at culturally, we’re really asking men to unlearn their toxic masculinity. especially of adolescents who are still growing and changing---and what chuck did was certainly part of the vacuum of male privilege/toxic masculinity, but he faced consequences  for that, and then he acknowledged it. actively has announced he wants to change, and i genuinely believe it at this point. 

and while i wish chuck wasn’t the character they’re doing this with in the first place, “cancelled culture” can be really frustrating because it’s way too binary. it undermines the growth and self-crit we want people to be doing. 

obviously, it doesn’t apply unilaterally, some people are abusive or cruel or malicious to the point where they lose their ability to profit off of it, and rightfully so---but with a character like chuck, whose main crime appeared to just be slut shaming, i actually appreciate a narrative where a male character owns up to how that was bad, why it was wrong, and how they’re going to change. 

8. What is a storyline you’d like to see most explored on the show?

just---more familial dynamics. i cannot wait for gladys and JB, i think that’s going to be so meaty and tragic and emotional in the right ways. i want more of polly and betty’s relationship, and/or how betty feels watching her sister run away constantly, or just their dynamic in general. more of archie and fred navigating dreams vs. reality. i kinda don’t love veronica’s parents tho, and i’m not sure where they could take that in a way that i enjoy. 

9. What is your favourite Riverdale fanfic trope or cliché?

pining, man. just. pining. 

10. What is existing scene or storyline would you rewrite to better suit your tastes?

HAH. how much time do we have 

BONUS:  Archie starts a band. He settles on ‘The Archies’ but what were some of the other suggestions for the band name? Name three songs that show up on their debut album.

jughead’s suggestion is: red drum, red drum and he thinks it’s hilarious

three songs: midnight ride, smoking gun, and can’t fly

my 11 questions for my taggees 

1. which twist did you least see coming? genuinely. 

2. we all know riverdale loves hopscotching through genre elements (true crime, musical, grease, etc), and sometimes it’s too much, but which has been your favorite? what other ones would you like to see from the show?

3. riverdale does dirty on its secondary characters. what storylines would you give to reggie, kevin, josie, etc? or, what would you like to see for them in s3? anything you thought the show really fumbled? did right?

4. what are your backstory headcanons for sweet pea, fangs, and toni?

5. what’s your theory on the old riverdale riots?

6. it’s the ten year high school reunion. where did everyone go to college? (core four + the secondary pals) what’s your headcanon for their future careers? who’s still together? who wishes they were still together? who hooks up unexpectedly in a storage closet? 

7. what’s a storyline you just didn’t buy this season?

8. any headcanons for the riverparents? like, how they grew up, who they were in high school, why they went the directions they did?

9. what’s one trope that you’d wish the show would do? or something you wish you saw more in fic?

10. thoughts on reggie? will he ever be fleshed out? will it make him more of a villain, or less of one?

11. if you could have anything happen in s3, what would it be?

and i tag @village-skeptic @stillscape @sylwrites @lessoleilscouchants @myrmidonofmelodrama @heartunsettledsoul @raptorlily (tagging back, bc i want your answers on these too!) @theatreofexpression​ @imreallyloveleee​

🌼 ― a happy memory.

🌹 ― a romantic memory. [julian/brianna]

🌧 ― a sad memory.

🗝 ― a memory you never want to forget.

🌹 ― a romantic memory. [kaya/serkan]

🌹 ― a romantic memory.

🙊 ― a memory you don’t ever talk about.

🍑 ― a sexual memory. [sal/polly]

🌼 ― a happy memory.

Brianna dashed into the room, causing Rhiannon to jolt. "He proposed!!!" The older Cohen shouted, frantically shoving the ring in her sister's face. Rhiannon jumped up, joining her sister in screaming and yelling from excitement. "Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god!" Rhiannon shouted over and over, hugging her sister tightly.

🧠 ― a memory that had a big impact on you.

"Sal!" A voice shouted from the distance. Raphael moved to his side, hand falling on the gun that the younger Colombo held. Sal simply stared at his father, who held a heartbroken stare in his eyes. Before Sal could pull the trigger, Raphael had stepped in. Salvatore's father took this chance and ran, leaving his son and nephew. "You can't kill him..." Raphael whispered, but it fell on deaf ears. Sal merely watched his father run, the last thing he ever saw of him was his back.

🌹 ― a romantic memory. [julian/brianna]

Brianna was asleep, only to be woken by a string of kisses left at her side. She hummed, her hand finding her husband's curls. Chills ran up her body as he kissed her hip and thigh. Soon, Julian came up and pressed a kiss to her lips. "It's 5 in the morning, what are you doing up?" Brianna asked, her voice grogy and still sleep ridden. Julian didn't answer her question, he simply kept kissing her face. "Happy birthday, mi amor." The man said finally, earning a small laugh from his now fully awake wife. "Hope you're ready, because I've got the whole day planned."

🌧 ― a sad memory.

Rhiannon was in her living room in Boston, when she heard a knock at the door. She looked at the time, she was not expecting anyone. Rhiannon cautiously went to the door, and was shocked to see her sister at the other end of it through the peep hole. "Bri! What are you doing here?" Rhiannon asked, eyes falling on the two suitcases her sister had next to her. "He cheated..." The older redhead whispered, Rhiannon gasped. The night was spent with Brianna venting and sobbing, while Rhiannon comforted her. Rhiannon was left with a hatred for Julian, because nobody had made her big sister cry.

🗝 ― a memory you never want to forget.

Serkan wandered around the city. The eighteen year old was beaten and bruised from yet another street fight. The engine of a motorcycle caught his attention, and his eyes fell on a man. He had seen him before, in the audience of the fight. He was older, maybe late 30's. "Some fight you put up there." The man stated, and Serkan had to fight the urge to tell him to fuck off. "Kid, you can't go anywhere like that." He stepped closer, Serkan stepped back. Frank put his hands up. "I'm not gonna hurt you." He extended a hand. "Promise.

🌹 ― a romantic memory. [kaya/serkan]

Serkan had Kaya behind him, with her hands wrapped around his midsection. He made sure to drive safer with his girlfriend being behind him. He was taking her to the beach, since it was the perfect weather for a beach date. They arrived there about twenty minutes later. They danced together, they ate, they kissed, they talked. It was nothing short of perfect, so much so that they decided to get into the water. Kaya thought it would be funny to splash water at Serkan, the biker did not find that amusing. He reciprocated the action, and they both ended up soaking wet.

🌹 ― a romantic memory.

Veronica stared at the man under her for a moment. They just had a rather...steamy and rough session. The vampire placed her hand on his cheek. "You did so good for me..." She kissed his forehead, than his nose and finally his lips. They were soft, slow kisses meant to comfort. "Do you need anything?" The vampire was ready to get him anything he needed. "Water..." Erik spoke in a tone that was barely above a whisper. Veronica could just melt from the puppy dog eyes he was giving her. Veronica gave him one last kiss, before getting him his water and running him a bath.

🙊 ― a memory you don’t ever talk about.

Brianna stood over the body of her latest target, pleased with her work. As she wanted to turn around, a small voice stopped her. "Dad?" It was a little girl's voice. Brianna felt her heart drop as her eyes fell on a young girl, looking at her with pure horror and sadness. Brianna wasted no time in jumping out the window, leaving the body to be found by the target's associates and his distraught daughter. That was a look that would haunt her for the rest of her life.

🍑 ― a sexual memory. [sal/polly]

Salvatore stared down at Polly in all her glory. Tied up and legs spread. Her wrists were tied against the bed frame, legs held apart by Sal's hands on her ankles. It was a picture he wanted to stare into for the rest of his life. His hand let go of her right leg, slowly making his way up to her panties. He grinned. "So wet and I barely touched you...." The man leaned down, his cock pressed up against her still clothed core. His lips were against her ear, hit breath hitting her. "My pretty girl, if it gets too rough, I want you to use the safe word, okay?" Salvatore didn't gag her specifically because of that reason. When Polly nodded eagerly, Sal couldn't help but grin. Salvatore then kissed her, and they both knew they were in for one hell of a night.

[archxngxl]

F (Julian & Brianna) A (Sal and Polly) G (Serkan & Kaya)

A - Aftercare for Sal & Polly

YES. Okay look so Sal likes it rough! Like ROUGH! I'm talking like bondage, slapping, slapping, marking. He will leave marks that will last for days on end, however I consider him to be the KING of aftercare. If he was being too rough, he will take time to run a bath for Polly, get her water and praise her and assure her that she did great. Massages galore and he will even make her something to eat if she wanted that. Note that while Sal likes it rough, he takes Polly's comfort into account and will not do anything to make her feel uncomfortable <3

F - First Time for Julian & Brianna

OOOOOOOO the way I can imagine this is very passion filled and somewhat rough. It happened a long history of collaboration between the two, so they had a lot of pent up tension between them. Honestly, I think Brianna made the first move. She saw some woman speaking to Julian, touching his arm and whatnot, so she grabbed him and took him up their room. I don't think either of them would be nervous, they are both fairly experienced people. Tbh Julian is probably one of the best partners she ever had. They work well together, they know what they like and what they don't like, not to mention the fact that she loves him hehe

G - Games for Serkan & Kaya

Serkan doesn't like games all that much. The man has no patience. The only game I could see them playing is strip poker LOL. Honestly if they do play that, Serkan is a master at poker so Kaya is LOSING ahahaahahahahah.

Food play is a BIG NO for him, cuz in his mind why the fuck would you want food involved???? Serkan would consider it if it is something Kaya is interested in, but if he's doesn't like it, he won't do it.
