Lucas: Now we just got to find Mouth. Chris: I guess I’d just ask a cop if I were you guys. Skills: Right, let’s just walk up to the first cop we see and say, “hey, have you seen our friend Mouth?"  Chris: Why not? It’s a small town. (A police officer is just there) Excuse me!  Nathan: Keller.  Chris: Top of the morning, officer friendly.  Skills: Shut up. Excuse me, sir. We’re looking for a friend of ours. Kind of goofy-looking kid, big lips, spiky hair?  Chris: Needs ass.  Police Officer: Marvin McFadden.  Chris: Damn. Our guy’s name is Mouth.

Ok, I'm going to slide in here and awkwardly ask something, but feel free to ignore it: if you had full creative control of the show, how would you run season 5? You can pick and choose whatever leaks you want to include.

Bless your soul, you are truly such a positive and lovely force in this fandom from your meta to your gorgeous gifsets and writing! I’ve seen so many good answers today on my dash and while I have kind of abandoned canon post-4x17, I can’t pretend I haven’t been paying attention in the hopes that they can eventually get me back on board.

ANYWAY so I continue to find both Archie and Betty’s actions SO out of character, and I’m personally of the mind that the most fun/Riverdaleian way to solve this would’ve been for the mystery to somehow explain it

I’d be all for @sullypants’ tinfoil hat conspiracy theory that Charles somehow manipulated Betty and Archie to break up bughead or some other very riverdale explanation that involves cults, the Stonies, or even a grand alliance of past villains conspiring to break up bughead bc they are Too Powerful against their foes.

I also just headcanon Betty and Jughead as truly being the only one for each other so I feel like I’d be a lot less excited to see either of them with the anti-Jug or anti-Betty that others have predicted, tho I do think that makes sense. So here’s my insane idea for how to avoid that—this is truly wild and ridiculous but—wouldn’t it be so fun if Bughead didn’t break up bc of the kiss, but it’s somehow implied they broke up during college along with Varchie and Choni...Then we flash forward and find Betty and Jughead both in riverdale, acting like they’re broken up, only to find by the end of the episode(s) that they are actually still together but needed to go undercover as not-together in order to investigative whatever strange thing brings everyone back to town? I would love to see these two with their own PI firm (Betty would never be able to stay within FBI rules imo) and we’d still get all the cuteness of having to pretend publicly that they’re not in love. I love the idea of jug as a successful author in theory but it also feels very young for that so I’d just be here for knowing that his PI work with love of his life betty is what fuels his writing whether or not he’s published yet.

I just want my investigative duo bughead and I’ve always just loved the idea that they’re the mom and dad of the friend group, the only ones who are still together since high school (a la Naley in OTH minus the injury/near-broken marriage) who end up relationship counseling their friends as they navigate their exes.

Other things on my wishlist include:

Bisexual Archie AND bisexual Veronica slowly finding their way back to each other (and Veronica being wildly successful. I could see her single, playing the field, perhaps too damaged from her breakup with Archie to truly let anyone in. I see her more as Brooke Davis in OTH post Lucas Scott heartbreak you know? So strong except when it comes to love bc she’s so bruised.)

Also keeping Choni apart for longer before they find their way back to each other bc their original relationship development was 100% the weakest of the three big ships and they deserve better build up

More mechanic Betty!

Toni, Reggie, Kevin, and the Pussycats having full storylines. I’d love for Toni to be part of the main mystery for once bc I always felt her dynamic with Betty and Jughead is underused.

More group scenes! Everyone actually playing a role in the overall narrative while having an individual journey that makes sense for their character.

More core four friendship — would actually want to see Jarchie, Beronica, even the Barchie FRIENDSHIP given more care and attention.

Idk I feel like there’s a ton more I would’ve said after 4x16 but I have so much less creativity or hope for canon riverdale than I used to. Am loving seeing all the responses tho!!!

Crazy thing is, shaking up the relationship isn’t the problem. It’s how it was done.

To introduce Spelivia to specific conflicts and hurdles is fine in my book, especially if they come out stronger. They’re not in high school, anymore. They’re getting older and exploring different avenues. It’s natural for obstacles to come their way and disturb their peace. Which is why I wasn’t tripping when it came to their first fight or them having to relearn each other in 4x17.

What’s wasn’t natural was this annoying NIL storyline, that had potential, but now? Like, what’s the point? What are we doing? Where is this going?

On OTH (it’s too easy to compare these two shows, so I gotta), Lucas and Peyton fell out over a declined marriage proposal. Was it low-key stupid? Yes, because Lucas could’ve just accepted that she wasn’t ready (they were literally like, 19). But it still held up enough for the angst that followed. Breaking up over a refusal of engagement makes more sense than having relationship issues over an article centered on an antagonistic character don’t none of the others rock with anyway.

I keep thinking about NK’s interview from last year before season 4 where she was talking about how the audience will see if Spencer and Olivia’s relationship is “sustainable” and… is this why she feels like she needed to give them angst for the second half of the season?? And like this?? Because sister… this shit makes no sense for them. And you trying to prove that their relationship is “sustainable” is stupid too because they literally proved that in their development. I was ok with the Wade thing because it was like cool a real villain affecting these characters that’s not from a gang. Why not at the very least follow through with that? You shifted to Garrett for what exactly? No payoff from the Wade situation at all. No article. Half ass arrest. All we got was a punch from Jordan and a dumbass cliffhanger FOR WHAT???

answering asks

cause y’all know by now I can’t run this blog in a reasonable or timely fashion:

Anonymous said: Do you ship stydia, brucas or Jackie and Hyde? Do you think any of those couples resemblances to dair like Seth and Summer? Some people compares them all a lot, what do you think?

I do ship Jackie/Hyde! I can totally see the resemblance to Dan/Blair and Seth/Summer. I don’t watch TW or OTH though so I have no opinion on those.

Anonymous said: Do you know of any Dair au fic that picks up after the foyer kiss in 4x17? Obviously the aftermath of that kiss is canon is absolute nonsense, and wondering if any fic writers have done an au like that. Thanks! Love the blog!

I’m sure there are a ton of fics like this that I am just blanking on right now. The Kind of Reckless is set after 4x17 kind of generally? and that’s one of my absolute faaaaaves.

lol it’s the most depressing thing in the world! she finally found her pure and simple love :(

Anonymous said: Hi! Can you help me on find some blair and dan wallpapers? My phone is empty and I really want a few ones, thanks!

I did a quick search but came up empty :/ sorry, anon!

Anonymous said: Sooo i'm a new Dair shipper and your rewatch is giving me life. Please fill me in, tho: WHAT WAS THE SEASON ONE PLOTLINE FELLED BY THE WRITER'S STRIKE!?! I HAVE NOT HEARD ABOUT THIS!?

DON’T GET ME STARTED ON MY S1 CONSPIRACY!!!!!!!!!!

lksjdflksd but really I do believe they were supposed to maybe ~happen in the second half of season one based on a few pieces of flimsy evidence.

the cabbage patch kids = captain oats / princess sparkle (the childhood toys that seth/summer on the OC had, AKA the show also written by these showrunners)

penn & leighton did several promo photoshoots together early on which is SUSPICIOUS since they hardly interacted on the show at that point

in 5x16 when Blair is finally reading Inside, she finds out that back when they were in high school, Dan came to see her accept an award for an essay competition that she won. the writers said on twitter after this episode that it was a storyline they had to cut because of the writer’s strike!

Anonymous said: oh boy, i hadn't checked in with this blog for a bit and seeing that it's already at 5x20 and they're so domestic and giddy and perfect and knowing it's about to be destroyed gave me literal chest pains i don't know how you make it through tbh. it's been almost 6 goddamn years lolololol i'm tired

I started this blog almost a year and a half ago (????!!!) and now that we’re finally nearing the end of season 5 I am like “I’ve Made A Huge Mistake”

Anonymous said: Its making me sad that we have nearly reached the dair era of the show and soon you will not be making any gifs of them anymore :(((
