what'd you think is more catholic coded, nacho and all the parallelisms with jesus and all that stuff, or the rightful holy repentance through punishment and suffering of mcwexler 🛐
as the world's shittiest former-catholic, i'm really glad you asked!
would it be bad if i said mcwexler is more catholic than this 😬
Tumblr media
way smarter people have discussed nacho and any input would be lovely. personally i respect nacho’s role as scapegoat, ransom to the devil, and shirtless guy coated in oil – but even if the aesthetic is👌 comparisons sort of start and end their for me 🤷🏻‍♀️ nacho’s morally gray and therefore not catholic-coded enough. but the catholic lense of  confession, penance, and redemption is just soooo mcwexler<3
thinking about jimmy’s two versions of the heisenberg story, and how by elevating his involvement from victim to accomplice helped regain his soul according to gould:
"Jimmy gets his soul back. But he’s going to be incarcerated for some amount of time. And that just felt right (x)"/ "I don't know if he's redeemed himself... but he has won his humanity back (x)"
the soul as something that can be gained/lost gives general christian vibes, but there elements that feel specifically catholic to me"
(1) the sacrament of reconciliation: really, the *only* sin god cannot forgive is failure to repent for mortal sins. jimmy’s first confession to marie fails this, but on second go around jimmy *does* confesses to a mortal sin (adulation with deliberate consent). and since confession 2 was voluntary, thats 79 years of self-imposed soul-saving penance (bonus points for the insurance thing – confession is also a salve for guilt).
(3) satisfactory punishment. when walt et al. selfishly died without repenting, they left an imbalance in the moral universe. luckily, catholics believe one may follow christ’s example and bear another's cross. by accepting full blame in building walt’s empire he can pay walt’s debts and restore balance.
(4) penance as medicinal: a self-induced punishment should equal the pleasure obtained while sinning through self-denial. take the opening and final scene of s6: gaudy lust-filled den of sin (damanged soul) is contrasted by barbed wire and slave-labor bread (healed soul). so a prison where he can have ice cream and golf would not do!
It felt right that Saul has been in court so many times as an attorney, and now he's there as a prisoner. And it felt right that he's made a mockery of the justice system, and now he's part of it. He's gone from being one of the people in the courtroom who runs the courtroom to be the subject. And that just felt right (x)
importantly, punishment is meant to help the sinner only – the 79 years do not meaningfully improve the lives of the victims or others involved (jimmy did not save kim from consequences nor would she want him to – idk why so many reporters think this???). kim’s confession is not as catholic, since giving cheryl closure is somewhat beneficial. but penance is a moral good in itself.
I personally don’t think what he’s doing is to save her from being implicated. She has already confessed to exactly what she did. There’s nothing Jimmy can save her from with that. Yeah. But I do think that those last moments in the courtroom are the two of them seeing each other without masks, like they used to (x)
(5) virtue of good works (this one's such a stretch): after regaining god’s grace, mcwexler can once again be given the virtues that were lost upon mortal sin, such as giving and receiving love from each other/ acts of charity (legal aid). other virtues (prudence, fortitude, temperance, humility) are woven into this too - regaining these virtues helps jimmy go from near-strangler to stable human without years of therapy.
with all that, no one suffered more than the girl writing this

Cheryl pulled over to the side of the road and tore off her helmet, after the rumbling of her bike died down, she could hear the angry arguing coming from Sam and Dean. She grumbled some incoherent swears as she angrily marched over to them. 
"Immature, stupid, estúpido gringos." Cheryl cursed under her breath. These boys were certainly brothers, no doubt about it, but these arguments they had were getting pretty annoying. 
Just as she reached them, Sam turned on his heel and walked away with his bags in hand. Cheryl's brows knitted together and she glared up at Dean. "What is it now?" She asked bitterly. Dean brushed her off and climbed into the Impala, slamming the door shut once he was inside. The window was down fortunately enough, so she could still scold him. "Dean." She warned. He turned the key and Baby roared to life, he spared Cheryl a glance and he shrugged. "Nothing, let's go." 
"Dean-" 
"Drop it!" He snapped. Cheryl's brows shot up and she scoffed in disbelief, she tucked her hands into her pockets and shook her head. Then, she did a complete 180. "You do not get to talk to me like that!" She hissed. She pointed her finger at him and her eyes narrowed, "I am not your punching bag, and I don't think that it's that crazy for me to wonder what the hell happened for Sam to leave!" Cheryl ranted. Dean let out a heavy sigh and patted his hand against the steering wheel impatiently. Damn, she was persistent. 
"Look, I'll tell you about it when we get to the damn place. Okay?" He said. Cheryl squinted and crossed her arms against her chest before she gave him a curt nod. "Okay." She turned and walked back to her motorcycle, it would take her a little bit to get all ready to get going again so Dean carefully drove past her knowing that she'd be able to catch up. 
And she did, she whipped down the highway and way ahead of him (definitely at least 15 over the limit.) Dean grinned a bit and turned up the music that was currently playing on the radio. It was some random rock station but he liked it. 
----------------------
Cheryl pulled Dean to the side after he asked a second person about the couple in the posters he had. "You still haven't told me what happened." She whispered. Dean sighed heavily and rolled his eyes, he shoved his hands into his pockets and opened his mouth to speak. "He wanted to go find dad, I wanted to solve this case - like he wanted. A typical sibling squabble like you call it, that's all there is to it." He mumbled. Cheryl nodded slowly and tucked her bottom lip between her teeth. To people who were an only child, this seemed extreme. But to Cheryl - it was normal. "I get it, I have a sister who is Sam's age," Cheryl said with a slight shrug. Dean's brows shot up and his eyes widened, he didn't know that. "You have a sister?" He asked. 
She nodded. "Yeah."
"What's her name?"
"None of your business." She scoffed, brushing past him as she walked away.
Dean caught up with her and gently touched her arm to grab her attention. "I barely know anything about you - come on. What's her name?" Dean repeated. Cheryl yanked her arm away and shot him a mean glare, she didn't want to tell him anything. "My sister's name is not something that you need to know." She huffed out. Dean shrugged and thought about what he could say next. "Okay, what about your birthday? Orrrr - your middle name - or your favourite colour?" He looked at her expectantly, a soft smile on his face. Gravel crunched beneath them as they approached this little diner/mechanic-looking shop. Cheryl rolled her eyes and let out an annoyed groan, "Not telling you."
"Come on! I'll tell you my birthday if you tell me yours, it's January 24th, 1979." He said. Cheryl grinned and pushed the little shop door open, a bell jingled from above them signaling their presence. "Cool, still not telling you."
"You're evil." Dean sighed.
"You remember? They were just married." A young teenage girl said to the older couple as she handed Dean back the missing person poster. Cheryl raised a brow and glanced down at the photo displayed on the poster of the man and then the woman. "Oh right," The older man began. He pressed his finger to his lips as he thought back to last year, "They did stop for gas, weren't here for more than 10 minutes." He said. 
"Do you remember anything else?" Dean asked.
He shook his head, "Told them how to get back on the interstate and they left town." 
"Could you give us directions?" Cheryl asked politely.
The man glanced over at her and he nodded, "Sure." He replied. These people seemed normal enough, but it felt like there was just... something that they were missing. Something that they might not be telling them. 
It was raining, and Cheryl had to leave her bike in town unfortunately, but Dean swore that he'd bring her back for them to get it when it died down. She stared at the missing persons' poster for a long while, listening to the soft sound of the rain pattering against the Impala. Suddenly, the EMF reader in the backseat started to beep like crazy, Dean's brows furrowed and he glanced back there. "What the hell?" He questioned. Cheryl's eyes briefly met his and he tried to reach over and pull it out of one of the bags, when he failed, he let out a sigh and pulled over to the shoulder of the road. Dean inspected the EMF and Cheryl leaned over, "What do you think it is?" She asked. 
"I dunno," He muttered. Dean glanced out the window and then pushed the door open which gave a loud creak, Cheryl followed soon after him. 
They roamed this little apple orchard, trees everywhere and ladders propped up against some tree trunks. Cheryl inhaled deeply, it smelt dewy and earthy - somehow wet too. Dean ducked under a branch and stopped moving for a moment to glance around, "Notice anything?" He asked. She shook her head, all she saw was forest, apples, and fog. "No."  Dean let out a heavy sigh and turned, his eyes widening as he noticed a scarecrow. 
They both sauntered over and Cheryl cringed when she saw his stitched up face with gaping holes for eyes. Dean scoffed and looked the scarecrow up and down. "Dude you're fugly." Cheryl snorted and clapped a hand over her mouth to hide her smile, he is funny but she didn’t need him to know that she thought he was. He cocked a brow and briefly looked at her, a smirk stretching across his face. "Wanna flip a coin?" He challenged. 
Cheryl's brows knitted together in confusion, "What?" Dean gestured toward the scarecrow and pouted his lips together. "For who's gonna snatch one of these ladders and check out Mr. Scarecrow here." He replied. Her lips thinned and she tapped her foot against the ground, "If you're too scared to I'll do it myself." She offered. Dean's eyes widened and he waved his hands, absolutely not. He was not afraid. "Woah, woah woah. I'm not scared-," Dean defended. She pointed to the scarecrow and raised her brows, a small smug grin on her face. "Then you do it." 
"Fine!"
Dean turned and snatched up a ladder that was behind them before positioning it on the scarecrows post and climbed up it. He wrinkled his nose and scanned the thing, his eyes catching on a pattern that appeared to be on its arm. Cheryl crossed her arms and shivered a bit, her leather jacket wasn't enough for weather like this. "See anything?" She asked. Dean didn't answer, he moved the torn black fabric to the side and etched into the bone-like scarecrow arm looked to be the same tattoo the missing guy had. He glanced down at the photo of the guy, then at the arm. "Nice tatt." He said to nobody other than himself.
Dean pulled up next to the same shop that they had stopped at and got directions from. Emily - the young girl was outside and watched them both step out of the car. Dean flashed her a grin, "Mind filling it up there, Emily?" He asked. She shook her head and slowly made her way over, Dean watched as she started to pump the gas. "So you grow up here?" He asked. 
"Came here when I was 13 after my parents died, it's great here though. Everyone's nice." She said with a cheery smile. Cheryl nodded and smiled herself, leaning against the body of the Impala next to her. "That's good, it seems pretty great here." 
"It is, it's almost like this place is blessed, I swear." 
Dean raised a brow, "Yeah?" He then pointed to the red SUV behind them. "New customer?" 
Emily glanced over her shoulder, "Oh, yeah. Some car troubles." Cheryl and Dean both shared a knowing look before he asked if it were a couple. The answer was unfortunately yes. 
They both strolled into the little diner and Cheryl rubbed her hands together and blew on them as Dean asked for a black coffee and took a seat at an empty table. "Oh, and some of that pie too, while you're at it!" He called out. He pointed to Cheryl and raised his brows, silently asking her if she wanted some pie too. She shook her head and he leaned back in the chair, adjusting his coat and the copious layers he wore as he tried to get comfortable. He smiled at the couple who was at a table next to them and waved a little, "Just passin' through?" He asked.
"Roadtrip." The woman answered. Cheryl smiled herself and reached over to touch Dean's hand, making sure to pay no mind to how his eyes widened and he bit his lip. "Us too." Cheryl gushed. The woman's brows shot up and she was practically beaming, it seemed she enjoyed talking to Cheryl much more than she did Dean. "No kidding!" Both of the women giggled and Dean cringed. Cheryl never giggled like that before - it sounded... strange. 
Scotty refilled the couples cider and shot the two of them a look. "I'm sure these people would like to eat in peace." He said. Cheryl chewed on her bottom lip and squeezed Dean's fingers which made his breath catch. "Just some friendly conversation." Dean said with a shrug. He turned his hand so his palm faced up and interlocked their fingers together. "Oh! And that coffee too, thanks." Dean said as Scotty grumbled and stalked away. Cheryl was smart about making them seem like a couple to the other (real) couple. It would just be their... body language and friendliness that would make the couple be more open and willing to share information. "So, uh - what brings you into town?" Dean questioned. The woman let out a nervous chuckle and tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear. "We just stopped for gas. And, uh - the guy at the gas station saved our lives." She explained. Cheryl tilted her head to the side and her eyes widened, she was trying to seem like an active listener. Like she cared. "Really?" Cheryl said.
Finally, the man spoke up. "Yeah, one of our brake lines was leaking. We had no idea. He's fixing it up for us." 
Cheryl forced herself to smile, trying to hide the concern written all across her face. "How nice of them." She commented.
Dean tore his hand away from Cheryl's and rubbed his thighs, "So, how long till you're up and running?"
"Sundown." The man answered simply. He didn't seem too interested in the conversation. Dean's brows furrowed in confusion and he thought for a moment, it shouldn't take that long to fix brakes. "To fix a brake line? You know, I know a thing or two about cars. I can gettcha out of here in an hour." He offered.
Cheryl smiled widely and nodded fervently, "Oh, yeah! He's so good with cars, he fixes mine up all the time." She raved. The woman's lips thinned and she impatiently tapped her foot against the ground. "Oh, thank you. But we'd rather a mechanic do it."
He nodded and his lips thinned, "Sure..." He paused for a second before continuing. "You know - it's just these roads... they aren't very safe at night." The couple exchanged a look with each other before the woman spoke up again. "I'm sorry?" She asked as she glanced back at them.
"I know this may seem strange - but I think you may be in danger." Dean said. Cheryl's nose wrinkled and she gave him a swift kick in the shin and then she made a discreet slashing motion at her throat. "Look man, we're trying to eat." The man sighed. Cheryl clasped her hands in her lap and frowned, "We're sorry, we're just concerned is all. Maybe -"
The bell above the café door jingled and the sheriff stepped in just as Scotty came out the back. "Thanks for coming, sheriff." Scotty said. Cheryl and Dean both rolled their eyes and let out an annoyed sigh as Scotty whispered something in the sheriff's ear. The sheriff nodded slowly and then strode over to the two of them. "A word please?"
"Yeah." Cheryl said shortly as she pushed herself up. Dean groaned and mumbled something about having a bad day under his breath as he stood up.
And now here they were, being escorted out of town by the sheriff. Cheryl was more so mildly annoyed that she had to drive the speed limit, she liked to go fast on her bike, not drive like an elderly person. As soon as they passed the town line, the sheriff turned and went back into Burkitsville.
They drove for a mile or so before they pulled over to converse. "That Scotty guy was annoying as fuck." Cheryl groaned paired with an eye roll. Dean let out a chuckle and leaned against his car, his arms crossed against his chest. "Yeah, he was." Cheryl pulled out a pack of cigarettes and offered him one, he shook his head and she shrugged her shoulders before popping one in her mouth and lighting it up. Dean watched as she took a drag and exhaled a cloud of smoke. "So, uh... when did you start hunting?" He asked. He hoped that she would answer the question this time instead of ignoring him or brushing him off. Cheryl sighed and took another drag, smoking was like a coping mechanism to her. She only ever did it when she was stressed or upset. "Eighteen." She muttered. Dean's brows raised in surprise, so she was actually willing to tell him? "Who taught you?"
Cheryl smiled fondly, "A friend."
His brows shot up and he grinned, "You have friends?" She scoffed and then chuckled, was he being for real? Cheryl took a quick drag from her smoke and put it out on the heel of her boot. "More than you."
"Ouch."
Cheryl sighed and rubbed her cheek, pouting her lips together as she stared off into the distance. "We should get some food, and a room." She said. Dean nodded in agreement and ran a hand through his hair. "Burgers?" He asked.
"Hell yeah."
They got a room at a motel about an hour from Burkitsville to drop their stuff and her bike before they headed back to the town. "Can I pick a tape?" Cheryl asked as she sifted through his little box of cassettes. He glanced over at her for a moment and then focused back on the road. "Depends what you pick." He answered. Cheryl plucked out a tape and had this wide smile on her face. "Metallica is good, but you should get some Good Charlotte in here - Oh! And Bon Jovi!" She practically beamed. His eyes narrowed and he let out a mocking laugh, "You're kidding."
"What?"
"Bon Jovi? Seriously?" Cheryl gasped and her eyes widened, nearly dropping the tape in her hands. "You did not just diss Bon Jovi. Ever heard It's My Life? Or You Give Love A Bad Name? Those are amazing songs." 
"Yeah, and what else? Those are like his only good songs." Dean scoffed. Cheryl rolled her eyes and pushed the Metallica cassette into the stereo. "Livin' On A Prayer, Shot Through The Heart, Bed Of Roses, I can go on." 
"Okay, yeah, yeah. I get it." He grumbled, pretending to be annoyed but he was really amused. It was funny how she got all fired up over music - but he couldn't really judge her, he did the same.
Cheryl peeked inside the same red SUV that was pulled over near the orchard, "Fuck they aren't here!" She said. Dean looked over to the entrance of the orchard and then they both broke out into a run.
The scarecrow (who was off its post and walking toward the couple) came into view and Dean stopped in front of the couple. "Get to your car!" He yelled to them. The couple hesitated and Dean waved them off, "Go! Go!" He ordered. The couple ran away and the scarecrow continued to stalk toward Cheryl and Dean. He pulled his gun out from the waistband of his pants and cocked it, he didn't waste a single second to shoot the damn thing. The scarecrow didn't stop and they both started to back up, Dean shot it again, and again but it didn't stop. Cheryl grabbed Dean's arm and pulled him back, "Dean, come on!" She yelled. His free hand pressed to the small of her back and he gave her a little push before they both sprinted to the opening that lead to the highway. They turned and the scarecrow was gone, nowhere to be seen. "What the hell was that?!" The man asked frantically. Cheryl stumbled back and panted for air, "Don't ask."
Cheryl was exhausted, it was late and all she wanted to do was take a shower and collapse into bed. "So the scarecrow just climbed off it's cross?" Sam asked in disbelief. Dean put the phone on speaker and chuckled, "Yeah, I'm tellin' ya. Burkitsville Indiana, fun town." 
"You said it." Cheryl grumbled. She stared out the window blankly as the boys continued to talk. She was just happy that they were on speaking terms and that Sam was okay. Cheryl had completely zoned out, so when she heard Sammy say "Bye, Cheryl." It caught her off guard. "Oh - bye, Sam." She replied. Once Dean hung up she sighed deeply which caught his attention. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing. Just tired." She said.
Cheryl untied her boots and let out a satisfied groan as she finally slipped them off. She'd been walking around all day in these damn heavy things, it felt good to finally take them off. "Hey, Dean!" She called out.
"Yeah?" He called back from the bathroom. He called first dibs so that was the only reason why he was in there and she wasn't. "You got any toothpaste? I forgot to pick some up." She said. He came out of the bathroom and passed her a tube of toothpaste, his face was slightly wet from when he quickly splashed some water on it to freshen up. "Gracias." She mumbled. 
"De nada." He answered with a grin. Cheryl side-eyed him and her brows scrunched up, she looked a little disgusted honestly. "Your pronunciation is awful."
"You're just gonna have to teach me then." Dean teased, looking her up and down as he sat on the bed across from her. Her eyes narrowed and a muscle in her jaw twitched, she then rolled into bed and pulled the covers over herself. She was too lazy to change. "No." Cheryl asked for toothpaste for no reason at this point, Dean's flirty comment had taken the last bit of energy she had left.
--------------------
"It's not every day I get a research question on pagan ideology." The professor said as he lead Cheryl and Dean into his office. Dean chuckled quietly and shoved his hands into his pockets. "Yeah, well, call it a hobby."
"But you said you're interested in local lore?" He asked.
Cheryl nodded and smiled a bit, "Mhmmm." The professor frowned a little bit and crossed his arms against his chest. "I'm afraid Indiana isn't really known for pagan worship."
"Well maybe it was imported? By like, pilgrims that brought their religion over. A lot of the area was settled by immigrants, wasn't it?" Dean suggested. Cheryl adjusted the neckline of her grey turtleneck, she forgot how damn itchy this thing could be. The professor nodded and shrugged, "Well, yeah."
"What about Burkitsville? That's close to here. Where are their ancestors from?" Cheryl spoke up. Dean glanced down at her and his lips thinned into a slight smile which she did not return. The professor made a face as he thought, "Uhh, northern Europe I believe: scandinavia."
"What could you tell us about those pagan God's?" Dean questioned with a raised brow. She nudged his arm with her elbow to grab his attention. "There are a lot of Norse gods, maybe... are there any that live in an orchard?" Cheryl said. The professors brows shot up and he nodded slowly, he started to walk towards the door and motioned for them to follow him.
The professor set a hefty book down onto a table and flipped it open, skimming through the pages. "Woods God, hm?" He flipped through a couple more pages and Dean noticed a drawing of what looked like a scarecrow on its post. He pointed to it, "Wait, wait, wait. What's this one?" Dean asked.
"Oh, that's not really a woods god." The professor said. Cheryl tilted her head and inspected the image, the farmers that surrounded the scarecrow had this grim like expressions on their faces. Dean's face scrunched as he read the name of this God. "The, V-vanir?" He questioned. He always struggled with pronouncing weird looking words like that. The professor nodded and Dean started to read off the little blurb about the Vanir. "The Vanir were Norse gods of protection and prosperity, keeping the local settlements safe from harm. Some villages built effigies of the Vanir in their fields. Other villages practiced human sacrifice. One male, and one female," He then pointed to the picture. "Kinda looks like a scarecrow huh?" Dean chuckled.
The professor shrugged and briefly looked at the image, "I guess so." Dean continued to read about how the specific God's energy came from a tree. Cheryl crossed her arms against her chest and her forehead wrinkled. "What do you think would happen if the tree caught fire or something? Would it kill the God?"
The professor laughed and shook his head, "These are just legends, girl. Nothing more." Her lips thinned and she gave him a curt nod, a little embarrassed. "Right, sorry." She muttered. Dean outstretched his hand for the professor to shake, he flashed him a grin. "Thanks for your time, we appreciate it." The professor smiled back and tucked the book under his arm as he lead them to the classroom door. "It was my pleasure."
Dean swung the door open and Cheryl's eyes widened as she saw the sheriff who was behind the door and speedily hit Dean with the end of his rifle. She barely had any time to react before she felt a blunt force hit her in the back of her head and everything went dark. 
Her eyes flew open and Dean let out a sigh of relief, "Good, you're awake." Cheryl abruptly sat up and glanced around the dark cellar. The back of her head ached and throbbed, Cheryl gently ran her fingers over the bump and winced. "Where the fuck are we?" She asked. Dean offered her a hand to which she ignored and pushed herself up, Cheryl dusted herself off and squinted up at him. "Are you gonna answer?"
He rolled his eyes and tucked his tongue into his cheek, "I dunno. Looks like some storm shelter." She cursed under her breath and ran a hand through her hair. This was just great, everyone in the damn vicinity of the town was working together. They had no way of predicting what happened at the community college. Her lips scrunched over to one side and she glanced up at him, her eyes softening slightly. "How's your head?"
Instinctively, Dean's hand flitted up to touch his forehead and he gave no signs of any pain. "Fine." He answered. She nodded slowly and looked away, "They are gonna try to sacrifice us aren't they?"
"Yeah." He said bluntly. Cheryl groaned and pinched the bridge of her nose. She quickly made her way up the rickety wooden stairs and tried to push the doors open. They didn't budge and chains clashed against one another, damn, they really wanted to keep them in here. She pressed her ear to the wood door and listened, there was some distant talking that she could barely make out. Cheryl glanced over at Dean and motioned for him to come listen as well.
"It's angry with us. Already the trees are beginning to die. Tonight's the seventh night of the cycle. Our last chance." A deeper voice said. Cheryl squinted and swallowed hard, her nose scrunched and her lips pouted together as she focused on the voices. "If the boy and girl have to die, they have to die. But Emily can't find out about any of this." Dean's eyes met Cheryl's and his lips parted in surprise, so Emily didn't know about any of this. The sacrifices - the cover ups - none of it. Cheryl let out a little huff and carefully climbed down the old steps, she couldn't really see them and they were quite steep. "So, what's the plan?" She asked. Dean and Sam were obsessed with making plans while Cheryl preferred to just wing it (when it was safe.) "I'm workin' on it." He said.
"You really want our blood on your hands? How many people have you killed?" Dean asked the sheriff as he stepped back from Cheryl after he secured her binds. "We haven't killed anyone." The sheriff replied bluntly. Dean scoffed and rolled his eyes while Cheryl chose to just glare at the three townspeople before them. "No, but you sure cover up after. I mean, how many cars have you hidden, clothes have you buried?" Dean taunted. The sheriff said nothing and just walked away. One of the women stepped forward, a solemn expression on her face. "It wouldn't have been you two if you just let the other couple perish. You shouldn't have intervened... you two were a sweet couple, I'm sorry you have to go, but it has to be this way." She explained. Cheryl's brows raised as she complimented them on being a "cute couple", it seemed their little act was pretty convincing. Dean's face scrunched up angrily and as they left them here to die, he yelled: "Hope your apple pie was freakin' worth it!"
Cheryl tucked her bottom lip between her teeth and let out a shaky breath. The orchard as much colder now as it was nighttime and with these ropes digging into her wrists didn't help. She glanced over at Dean who was tied to another tree and she couldn't help but glare. "You don't have a plan, do you?"
"I don't see you making one!" He retorted.
Cheryl scoffed and rolled her eyes, "You're the man, it is your job to make plans. As well as to hunt and gather, but you suck at those two so I don't know why I trusted you to make a plan!" She hissed. Dean let out an annoyed grumble and cussed under his breath. He tried to loosen the ropes bounding his wrists and grit his teeth. "Can you see him?" He questioned. Cheryl glanced over her shoulder, her eyes narrowing as she saw some rustling in the trees and then some shadows. She sucked in a sharp breath and frantically tugged at the ropes. "Oh fuck!"
There was some more rustling from behind them now and both their eyes widened. Then, Sam popped out and his brows shot up, "Dean? Cheryl?" She let out a sigh of relief and looked up at the sky, gratefully murmuring some Catholic prayers in Spanish. "Oh! Oh, I take back eveyrhing I said. I'm so happy to see you, come on." Dean chimed as Sam untied him. "How did you get here?" He asked Sam. Sam shrugged a little and hesitated over his words as he untied Cheryl. "I, uh, stole a car." He confessed.
Dean let out a bark of laughter, "Atta boy!" Cheryl cocked a brow and looked between the two brothers, their reunion was heartwarming, sure. But they had bigger fish to fry. She glanced back at the scarecrows post, her eyes widening as she realized he wasn't there. "Guys, he's not there anymore." Cheryl called back.
Sam's brows furrowed in confusion, "Who's not there?"
"The scarecrow." She stated as if it was obvious.
Dean's face fell, "Shit!"
The three of them ran through the orchard, Cheryl fell slightly behind as she was quite a bit shorter but she tried to kept up nonetheless. "So there's a tree?" Sam panted. Dean nodded and glanced back at Cheryl to make sure she was still with them. Her hair was blowing behind her and her face was flushed from the exertion, she looked kinda hot if he had to be honest. "Yeah, it's the source of it's power."
"So let's burn it." Sam said. Cheryl shook her head and let out a heavy pant, "No, let's get out of here and do it in the morning." She sucked in a sharply, attempting to catch her breath as they reached a clearing. "You guys run too fast." She muttered.
Up ahead, the towns people blocked their straight exit. "This way." Dean said, taking a sharp turn but all routes were blocked. They were surrounded. Cheryl skidded to a stop just behind the boys and clenched her fists tightly. "Please, it will be quick." Harley reassured. Dean protectively stood in front of Cheryl and Sam, as if it was just pure instinct. "Just let him take you!" Harley pleaded. Suddenly, a sickle cut through his chest and he was raised into the air by none other than the scarecrow. Cheryl gasped, Dean staggered back and Sam's eyes widened. Blood spurted from Harley's mouth and he gurgled. It was a grisly sight - the way his eyes bulged out of his head and how he desperately clawed at the spikes protruding through his stomach. As quickly as the scarecrow stabbed him, he drew the sickle out and attacked Emily's aunt, dragging her and Harley away with him deeper into the orchard. His sacrifice was claimed. The remaining townspeople ran away and Cheryl, Dean and Sam just stood there in shock. It was Dean who initially spoke up, "Come on, let's go."
Although what had happened was awful, those people dying... Cheryl was grateful it wasn't them.
The three of them made the familiar walk to the sacred tree that was marked with Vince's tattoo in the orchard once it was morning. Cheryl's eyes trailed up the tree in all its glory, if it weren't for the tattoo design that signaled this was the "sacred tree," Cheryl would've had no idea it was this tree. Sam stepped forward and poured gasoline all over the trunk of the tree as Dean grabbed a large branch and lit it up. Fire crackled at the end of the branch and he tossed it toward the tree. It was engulfed in flames and heat emanated from it.
Cheryl tilted her head and her brows knitted together as she thought. "You think Emily will be okay?" She asked. 
"I think so." Dean said. He glanced over at Cheryl and hesitantly put a hand on her shoulder and gave it a squeeze. Her eyes met his and she raised her brows expectantly, she wasn't pulling away from his touch, this was good - this was a start. Dean smiled nervously and dropped his hand to his side, "Sorry, didn't think of anything else to say." He confessed with a slight chuckle. Her lips quirked up into a slight smile and she shook her head. "It's okay, don't worry about it." She said. She tucked her bottom lip between her teeth and nibbled on it before releasing it. "You're not a good gatherer, or hunter - in the other sense at least, and you're not good at thinking of plans. But, you're a protector, that's a good trait to have." Cheryl said. Dean's brows shot up, she buried a compliment under a flury of insults. Before he could reply, Sam cleared his throat from behind them and he shoved his hands into his coat pockets. Dean's lips thinned in annoyance and he scowled at him, he was getting somewhere with this chick and Sam just had to ruin it. Cheryl started to slink away and looked over her shoulder at them. "I'll take my bike, meet you at the next gas station?"
"Yeah." Dean breathed.
Sam and Dean walked back to the Impala shortly after Cheryl left, they just wanted to make sure that the fire didn't sizzle out or anything. Dean gently nudged Sam's arm with his elbow and tucked his hands into his coat pockets. "So, can I drop you anywhere?" He asked. Sam shook his head and smiled a bit, keeping his gaze on the ground. "No, I think you're stuck with me." He replied. Dean's brows shot up in surprise and he pursed his lips together. Well, that was a relief. "What made you change your mind?"
"I didn't. I still wanna find Dad. And you're still a pain in the ass," Dean nodded along in understanding as Sam spoke. "But, Jess and Mom—they're both gone. Dad is God knows where. You and me. We're all that's left. So, if we're gonna see this through, we're gonna do it together." Sam finished. Dean stopped once they reached the Impala and turned to face Sam, a wide grin on his face. "Hold me Sam, that was beautiful." They both laugh and Dean patted his shoulder, giving it a squeeze before he released it. He was glad this fight between them was over for now, Dean was happy to have his nerdy brother back in arm's length. "Dude, you guys were lucky. I saved your asses." Sam chuckled.
Dean scoffed and playfully rolled his eyes, "Yeah right, I had a plan. I would've gotten us out." He said.
"Right."

Yup. I definitely believe Veronica and Jughead will be on the devil side because I thought it was interesting how they were the only ones on the Core 4 that didn’t return their books. And I can see that playing later when it comes to their souls, and it plays out with what Roberto wanted which was "the core 4" o more like the ships (BH/VA) being on opposite sides. I wonder if Toni or Cheryl will switch sides. I can see it being Cheryl because I think Heather is a trap from Percival but IDK. Makes also sense because there’s a lot of Jeronica lately and Riverdale doesn’t do this if there’s not a plot involved. Not only will this affect the core 4 ships but also Jabitha because she’s the supreme of all good I suppose. Now – I don’t know when that arc will happen and what could potentially make them go into the evil side unless they need things that only Percival is able to give them? I can see Jughead realizing in order to save Riverdale he needs to write so he asks him for his availability to write again.
i feel like percival's goals are less clear than most villains? he clearly wants to mess with them and is going out of his way to do so. the strings are still being pulled but we don't know his end goal yet. he's not your average hiram (sorry, percy, for thinking that before the season started) and he's not an outright serial killer so what's his deal?
heather gives me trap vibes too tbh. not sure what her plans are either but cheryl's emotional vulnerability that we've already seen in regards to heather makes me side eye. and her being a witch? i feel like that's a good way for percival to come in and for her to get in good with cheryl.
and for sure, jughead and veronica usually only share scenes when it's moving the overall plot. don't really know what they're going to do with it or anything but i am curious.

It's time we seriously start questioning the Lynx front office and coaching. Ever since Maya "retired" a lot of their moves haven't made much sense
yeah, cheryl has made some quesionable choices especially as a gm. she signed kmac, powers and achonwa for more money than she should have and it's keeping her from being able to make better moves this year. i think the fact that syl of all people had to take way less money so they could sign other players is very telling. i also don't understand waiving dangerfield, i know she had a bad season last year, but not even giving her a chance to prove if that was just a sophomore slump and she could go back to her 2020 self is just a bad move imo. waiving lay doesn't make sense to me either. last year they were i think 0-4 to start the season and they only started winning after they signed them and now she just waived them??? also i don't understand her obsession with banham... she's waived players like lexie, dangerfield and lay, but somehow banham is still on the roster??? idk
i still think she's a really good coach, maybe the best in the league. i mean, making the playoffs in 2019 after basically losing her entire starting 5 except syl (and mone technically, but she was out injured most of the season) is pretty impressive. same with way during 2020 she had to change their entire style of play after syl got injured and they still finished 4th, that was really great. but i started thinking yesterday, and the lynx haven't won a playoff game since 2017, which surprised me when i realized tbh. so yeah, i don't know, there's definitely some questions that need to be asked.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5 :)
1. Who is your oldest OC from creation?
From what I can remember, it'd probably be my Self Insert OC, Alex. 😅😅 I think I made her when I was like 15/16? So. Ik sure I had OCs when I was a kid, but I don't remember.
2. Which of your OCs do you like the least?
Snsjjsjs I don't necessarily dislike any of them(like I love them all, just some of them are more of my favorites than others I suppose), but I guess if I had to choose it'd probably be Kloie Draasi. 😅😅
3. Which of your OCs do you have the least details on?
Several don't have alot of info on them, but I think Ciprian Kore Kipp?
4. Which OC could you most likely do without in your stories?
Honestly I don't know. 😅😅 Alot of them are minor OCs, but they're still like there. So. 😅😅 But hmmmm, probably Alice Evie Schneider.
5. Is there any of your OCs who wouldn't like you?
Idk honestly. 😅😅😅😅 I hope none of them would dislike me. But hmmm probably Emiko Yumi Chatora and Alessandra Cheryl Heather Sharon Godfrey?
Anywho!! Thanks for the ask!!

Serpent Boy with Kind Eyes (Sweet Pea x you)
AN: This was a requested story by @zoeygraygubler. Thank you for the request. This is my first requested fic so it if is not up to par, constructive criticism is welcomed. Let me know if I did you justice :). This again will most likely be a multi-part I get waaay to thorough.
Original request: Could the reader be plus sized. They aren’t a south side but they aren’t the whole preppy northsider. Do you think you could write a fic where sweet pea asks her out on a date and she gets excited but someone tells her she’s not good enough, that she’ll never be for him because she’s not worth it. She ends up going on the date and yk they have a good time. Maybe skip forward idk they’ve been dating and have some smut.
Tumblr media
Being a Northsider has its ups and downs. Being a plus sized Northsider has more downs than ups, though. With the transfer of Southside High students certainly did not help. Getting picked on by Northsiders was a walk in the park. A fat joke here and there, nothing you couldn’t handle. But getting picked on by a Southsider was horrible. They would make comments on insecurities you never knew you had. Or you would have if they didn’t speak on it. 
But the comments from the Serpent students gradually died down to nothing; maybe a few comments out of ear shout but never to your face again. ‘Hmm. The Southside students' comments have completely stopped,’ you thought, ‘Wonder why?’  The exact reason was because of one Serpent boy who had been crushing on you the second he saw you. His transfer into “civil” life was not easy. But you offered him a good hearted welcome the first day the Southsiders arrived. 
~Flashback~
You had been assigned to welcome the transferring Southside students along with Cheryl and her minions. Of course she had a problem with it. “I just don’t get why pudgy has to help. We can get by perfectly fine without their help,” Cheryl argued with the principle. Giving Weatherbee no time to respond she stomped off. 
Once the tables were set up, it was almost time to greet the students. Cheryl had been talking everyone’s ears off about how bad of an idea this transfer was going to be. ‘Where else would they go to school?’ you thought. Suddenly the front doors of the school burst open and dozens of Southside students came bustling into the hallway.
Some were making eyes at you. ‘Here comes the jokes,’ you think. A pair of eyes caught yours; tall, dark, and handsome. Glancing at the tattoo on his neck, it made you nervous. You heard rumors about the Southside Serpents. You look into his eyes again and get butterflies, he never looked away. 
As he made his way to you, you offered a warm smile and said “Welcome to Riverdale High. I’m Y/N, and I will be your guide today.” The boy smirked back, “Sweet Pea.” 
‘What an interesting name,’ you thought, deciding to not comment on it you began to lead him around the school. 
~End of Flashback~
He was definitely taken back by the lack of teasing for his name. But after seeing the treatment you got from the Northsiders, he understood why you never said anything. Once he began to see his fellow Serpents and Southsiders he put his foot down. Threatening all of them to leave you alone or they’d deal with him. Everyone shut up almost instantly. 
The boy was enamoured by you, though, if your head wasn’t in the clouds it would be painfully obvious. One day he decided to ask you on a date to Pop’s. ‘Shouldn’t be too hard,’ he thought. How wrong he was. 
He tried 4 different times to ask you out. Either his friends would drag him away to a last minute Serpent meeting or you would brush by him, not noticing he wants to talk. The 5th time was also a huge dumpster fire. 
He had your attention but it seemed impossible to get the words out. You were like a goddess in front of him, he lost track of time. Completely forgetting what he wanted to ask you, he stumbled out, “Date?” You stood there and stared up at him. You go to respond but he clears his throat and tries again. “Uh sorry. Would you like to go on a date with me this Friday?” he said, offering a crooked smile. 
Cloud 9, that is all it could be described as. Not noticing the amount of time that had passed since he asked, he responded once again “Uh nevermind then.” He turned to walk away, shoulders slumping. Oh no. “Wait wait wait,” you quickly said, grabbing onto his forearm, “I would love to.” Turning to face you again, he held a boyish grin. He said, “Awesome. This Friday. After school.” 
“Got it. See you then Sweet Pea, “ you respond. As he walked away, your stomach did cartwheels, backflips, kick spins; going absolutely wild. Letting out a not so silent squeal you turn to your locker. “You know, you’ll never be good enough for him,” you hear. You glance over your shoulder and she Josie. She was an ex-fling of Sweet Pea, “allegedly”. You offer no sign of rebuttal, she goes on, “A fat Northside girl who can even dress the part. Your sense of style is as bland as your personality.” Grabbing what you need from your locker you turn to reply, “At least I can get a date without throwing my cat at anything with a pulse.” 
The woman girl was too stunned to speak. After a few seconds of silence, you began to walk away, nothing could ruin your mood. You heard a laugh from the water fountain across the hall. “Man, you really told her. She’s still standing there with her mouth open like a fish out of water,” you hear. “All she ever does is keep her mouth open. And her legs,” you quickly spit out. The person almost chokes on her sip of water. 
“I’m Toni Topaz,” the mystery person greets. “Y/N,” you respond. “I heard the little convo you had with boy wonder. He has been trying to ask you out for weeks,” Toni tells you. ‘Wow. Not the direction I thought this conversation would go.’ 
“Really now?” you say. Friday could not get here fast enough, you wondered if it was too soon to tease him about it. Toni offered to exchange numbers so she could “give you Pea advice.” She really wanted to see why Sweet Pea fell for you so hard. After talking to you for a brief couple of numbers, she knew why but she wanted to know more about you. Plus she realized Sweet Pea never gave you his number to keep in touch.
~2 days later~
Rumor quickly spread that Serpent bad boy Sweet Pea asked “Average Northside Y/N” out on a date. The teasing was never ending but never directly to your face. Only the Northsider has the guts to do that. As they have never received Sweet Pea’s threat. Or not yet. 
Sweet Pea’s best friends weren’t obvious about the teasing and went directly to Sweets about it. The boy was furious but knew immediately who started it. Marching up to Josie he could barely contain his anger. “What did you tell everyone?” Sweet Pea demanded. “About who?” Josie replied nonchalantly. This made Sweet Pea even more angry and once again asked, “What did you say?” 
“Oh, not much. Just that Y/N would be your replacement fling till summer break,” Josie responded with a smug grin. “Then you and I would get together and hash things out like old times,” she added. Deciding not to feed into her stupid actions, the boy went to walk away. Before he could Josie pulled him down into a sloppy kiss. Too stunned to react quick enough, he heard a gasp from behind him. He pulled away from Josie and whipped his head around. 
There you stood with your thicker frame looking up at him. He was going to explain what the hell you just saw and he was going to do it now. “You have 30 seconds to explain yourself, Sweet Pea. Alone. Or I am leaving and will never speak to you again,” you say, voice wavering. With tears collecting at your water line you look at Josie and say “Someone take the trash out.” Toni and Fangs, having just arrived, grabbed Josie and pulled her away. 
Now alone in the hallway you look up at him waiting for an explanation. He just stood there saying nothing, just staring. Quickly realizing he was not going to respond, you began to leave. ‘It was doomed from the start,’ you think. This time he gripped your elbow and offered a pitiful, “Wait.” You freeze, he sounded so broken. So utterly wrecked. Like he was going to start crying. This absolutely broke your heart, your heart clenched for this boy. “It was not what you thought it was. She kissed me,” he continued to explain, “She was spreading lies about you and and I wanted to confront her about it. She-” 
“Sweet Pea,” you cut him off, “It’s okay.” you laugh out. “I mean it’s not forgiven but I think I will settle with a burger from Pop’s,” you suggest wiggling your eyebrows with a slight smirk on your face. “Deal,” Sweet Pea agrees, “I’m buying.” He held his arm out saying, “My lady, would you give me the utmost honor of being your escort to brunch?” Laughing, you link arms with him and reply, “Oh certainly my lord.”

Riverdale Fall Promptathon: @crazymisscarly
I’m super keen to participate in the fall (lol it’s Spring in Australia) @riverdalepromptathon ! Check it out here :)

Other prompts:
Bughead secret relationship (arigatou @buggheadie)
I’m accepting prompts for:
Anything Bughead related that I’ve previously written, or have hinted at. Jones-Cooper-Smith Family fics, whether that be for my post season 4 AUs or something from the canon series. Also Falice, Choni, Varchie, Kangs, Teggie or friendships with Kevin/Betty and Archie/Jughead. I like Tabitha, Polly, Jellybean and Sweet Pea a lot too, so I’m open to fics about those characters.
I’m an absolute SIMP for family fics so by all means, I’m open to baby/kid fics.
Prompts that I’m graciously refusing:
Barchie as a romantic duo. Hard pass. Jabitha (unless it’s wholesome friendship Jabitha). Cheryl as a witch in the regular canon series (idk maybe I’ll consider a magical fic with the Blossoms and Sabrina but it’d need to be a pretty intriguing prompt haha). Hardcore smut (I could do some low-level stuff but nothing in my brain will make me unironically type ‘cock’ or ‘clit’. Sorry lads its just not for me, but yes I’ve probably read yours 😂).
Art/gifs made by others:
I don’t mind if you want to do that, I’d be excited to see it! My creativity is limited to writing so go wild LOL just tag me please so I can see it :D

What are your top 5 Buddie moments? (They don’t have to be in order.)
Cheryl my sweet, sweet Cheryl. I love this ask so much 🥰 Ok in no specific order!
1. “Buck, there’s nobody in this world I trust with my son more, than you.”
Like if this isn’t some kinda of love confession, then idk what it is. Because this was the moment where I just knew Eddie saw Buck in a different way. He didn’t see him as some reckless, kid. No he saw him as the most trustworthy person who would never ever fail him when it comes to his most prized possession, Christopher. And the fact that he made sure to make eye contact when he said these words is everything to me.
Tumblr media
2. “Because, Evan. You came in here the other day and you said you thought it would have been better if it had been you who had been shot. You act like you’re expendable. But you’re wrong.”
I’m sorry but I will never ever ever get over this scene. Like if I didn’t think the previous scene was a love confession, then I sure as hell would believe this one was. Not only does Eddie trust Buck the most out of everyone but we found out how much that trust goes. He made Buck his sons legal guardian in case something happens to him and that just says everything we need. He also tells Buck that he’s important and I think that’s beautiful.
Tumblr media
3. “I’d still take you.” “You think so?” “I know…you wanna go for the title? 😏”
Who the hell doesn’t love The Kitchen Scene™️?!? Like what in the actual fuck was this scene?? Did it actually happen?? Did I imagine it?? Why is there no heterosexual explanation for any of that??? Honestly that scene lives in my mind rent free forever. They were so flirty and so hot. Also just the wholesomeness afterwards where Eddie says, “This is my kinda therapy.”
Tumblr media
4. “Are you hurt?” “No, no, no, I’m good Eddie, you just hang on.”
Can you still here me screaming about this scene??? The fact that the only thing on Eddie’s mind, when he comes to his senses after being shot, is if Buck is ok kills me every time. Like just the softness of their moment. The raw emotion in Buck’s eyes. The way Eddie settles after he knows Buck is fine. The way Buck cradles his face so gently afterwards. Honestly one of my favorite Buddie moments and I still cry every time I see it.
Tumblr media
5. “I just wanna hit things.” “I been down that road, I don’t recommend it.”
The entire boxing scene. Just how reassuring Eddie is and how he validates and supports Buck’s actions. It’s very domestic and so fluffy imo. He’s standing there, being the support for Buck both literally and figuratively. He’s also showcasing massive soft heart eyes. And the way Eddie just stops the punching bag and talks to Buck gives me so much life honestly. Such a great moment between them.
Tumblr media
Honorable mentions because it’s not a specific Buddie scene per say:
Buck digging for Eddie in Eddie Begins. Nothing to add because we all know.
Tumblr media
Literally any time they’ve hugged because they’re too precious and it makes me smile so hard when they hug. We need more Buddie hugs ASAP!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Finally, I couldn’t leave this moment out. “I had to do it.” “Oh, I know you did.” Because Eddie knows Buck better than anyone else. He doesn’t judge him and doesn’t he loves him unconditionally.

*bursts through your wall* VALTIEL!! THE HORNED KING!!! For the character ask. Pwease <3c ~ avid-adoxography
Send me a character and I'll list:
Valtiel
Favorite thing about them: The fact that he exists as an actual guardian angel to Cheryl? Granted the canon doesn't do much with this and in canon he probably doesn't actually care about her but I don't care, "Girl and her weird pet monster" is like my favorite friendship dynamic
Least favorite thing about them: How we just know so little about him and how he never appeared in another Silent Gill game outside of that weird dungeon-crawling spinoff, Book of Memories. And there he had no story significance, he just gave you missions. Pyramid Head is cool and all but PLEASE can we get some Valtiel content. He's the one that actually makes sense to see again since unlike PH he's not tied to one specific person's mind! But granted, I really want to see him be pals with Cheryl and they definitely won't do that since it wouldn't be scary.
Favorite line: He doesn't talk outside of giving you missions in Book of Memories. I like the noises you can hear him make in the cutscene where he retrieves dead Cheryl though. He's a snarly hissy boy
brOTP: CHERYL! I love the idea of him being all protective and friendly with her. And her helping him when he's banished because he gets hurt pretty bad...
OTP: I don't really know honestly. He's not a character I tend to ship romantically. I've seen stuff of him and Pyramid Head which was SPICY but idk if I like them romantically together
nOTP: I don't really like the romantic ship with Cheryl but it doesn't repulse me enough to call it a nOTP
Random headcanon: uh...he can walk normally he just prefers crawling
Unpopular opinion: I guess just that I don't ship him with Cheryl? Most of his fans seem to
Song I associate with them: Almost Human ~ Aurelio Voltaire
Favorite picture of them: Uh...IDK honestly
The Horned King
Favorite thing about them: Ugh, EVERYTHING. But I'll settle on his voice. John Hurt did such a good performance.
Least favorite thing about them: How little Disney actually acknowledges him. And that the only attraction that ever featured him is closed forever. One of the things I'd do if time travel were possible: Visit the Cinderella Castle Mystery Tour. One of the things I'd do if I were filthy rich: Buy whatever's left of his animatronic and have it restored for my own collection (or have a new one built if there's nothing left)
Favorite line: He doesn't have a bad line but I love the way he taunts the protagonists after capturing them. He's being sarcastic but the way he says it it doesn't even sound cocky, just cold. Shivers.
brOTP: I currently have him as besties with the other necromancers I've f/o'd -- Demongo and Licorice Cookie. For just Disney villains, I like the idea of him being reluctant pals with Madam Mim who just playfully annoys him. And I feel like he could lament over being a criminally underrated Disney villain with NOS-4-A2.
OTP: ME. ok but besides my selfship, Maleficent. I just...think they're cool together.
nOTP: I don't really have any ships that I really hate with him
Random headcanon: The gwythaints are like pets to him and they're descendants of the ones Arawn used to torment into obedience. They're one of the only living things he's kind to.
Unpopular opinion: Uh...IDK. Honestly at this point I think just liking him as a villain is an unpopular opinion because a lot of people either don't even know about him or think he's nothing special. In that case maybe my unpopular opinion is that I actually really like the movie he's from and would love to see it attempted again (preferably still animated but I would settle for a live-action adaptation as long as it uses good practical effects everywhere it can.)
Song I associate with them: I have a whole playlist but my go to song is Hail To The King ~ Avenged Sevenfold.
Favorite picture of them: I don't know if I still have it but that one where he sees the Cauldron-Born starting to die off again and he just looks DISTRAUGHT.

Okay I'm ready. I'm the anon from yesterday who lost a whole ass rant. I'm ready to do it again(I'm typing this is the notes app first!!)
So I follow quite few Larry blogs that I love and respect cause they never give any shit about the stunts and defend Harry and louis so fiercely. I really like them for that. But lately they've been getting anon asks about ziam and idk why would people do that?? Like we'd make it very clear if we are ziams. Super crystal clear cause there are few of us(compared to the whole of directioner fandom). Honestly these blogs replied quite civilly like "I don't have any opinion about ziam cause I don't follow them closely" and such which is mature and good. But sometimes after numerous asks things do get heated and they let slip a sentence or two that really hurts. Like someone said the name ziammies is a fucking joke and I know we don't like it either and we'd prefer ziams. But it is so much more different when someone who doesn't believe zayn and Liam say that. And someone else listed all the things that make people believe in Larry and told that for ziam they only know about Zayn posting a selfie with a filter and both of them going blonde after a breakup(?)
It hurts my heart cause there's so much more than that. The casual soft reverent touches. Sharing orange eye ring that Zayn recreated in his like I would mv. Wearing brands that are associated with each other. Zayn fucking tatooing Liam's single cover waaaay before it got announced. Zayn literally having Liam's name and face tatooed on him. The almost kisses. The definite kiss on that dark stage that louis had to transform into on-the-spot cuddle. Eyebrow slits even after all these years. Family's support of the other boys. How they almost let it slip that they got a dog together in 1D day. One missing feather in zayns wing that is conveniently tattooed in Liam's arm with the words I figured it out curling around it. Which are the words to the song you & i which is point blank ziam anthem. It was the only song confirmed by Liam to be played before he let other 1D songs to be chosen by fans to be played at his online gig.
I don't need anyone to validate the "realness" of ziam. They are screaming enough. I'm hearing enough. But I can't tell all these to those blogs cause that bridge is burned and any talk about ziam is soured.
And I can't help but notice this. This is not comparing. I'm a larrie and a ziam. More people recognise Louis' babygate cause it happened with a nobody and people were screaming about his closet. Zayn's happened with a well known model who has a fanbase of her own so she can get away with not showing the baby's face(she "accidentally" revealed it anyway). Jungle family has only he-looks-like-louis-card so they overuse it. Posting baby's pics with ads? Check on both sides. Family members using the baby to promote their life? Check on both sides. Supposed baby mamas posting pics of the baby which gets far more likes than their regular posts? Check on both sides. Zayn likes louis' father announcement post(he rarely likes the boys' pics) and 4 years later louis goes out of his way to like zayns father announcement pic when zouis has never interacted once in those 4 years and there's beef between them?? And that's normal? That's not louis hinting at something amiss with the baby?? That's not enough proof to know that this is babygate 3.0? Liam's is more of a backburner babygate but it's still there. Like he has a baby with reclusive Cheryl and conveniently has one shit Polaroid pic and then bam. She just posts the baby's voice and stuff and that's done?? The common thing btw Liam and Zayn is that they know shit about babies. Liam telling his son can talk good when he was one??? Zayn telling it's really easy to be with a newborn baby?? Sure Jan. This irks me really. Anyway this is my loong looooong rant and I hope this finds you safe :)
Again, I'm so sorry this took me so long to respond to!
I share all of your frustrations, but you can't help people that don't want it, unfortunately, but at least then it's no longer your problem!
Just know that you're not crazy for holding differing beliefs, and you have a legitimate reason to do so. You'll learn that there's no point in having these discussions with people who don't want to listen, and save your time for things you actually love to do!
Again, so sorry this took me so long, I hope you're safe as well! Feel free to come back at anytime 😘

i am both impressed and terrified by the long asks you guys are managing to send:
one of the reason why i love betty (and bughead) it's the fact that no one does understans her for real, aside from jughead.—as much as it's a facet of her not being written with confidants outside of jughead for the most part, i still think this would be true. they've always written bughead as such kindred spirits that it's hard to deny that he really does just get her. and she him.
people like to say "betty's a bad friend", but did't they forget even others never been 100% her friend. archie? oh he's the first one to judge her kevin? drama first. betty second. cheryl? she bullied her before. veronica? ugh i love b/eronica so much but the writers, well...anyways we were talking about people understanding betty, dare i remind you when veronica doubt of the fact that betty would have actually killed jughead.—i will say upfront that i think veronica is a good friend to betty when they remember to write them as friends. she did drink poison for her, ha. but yes, i remember that veronica doubted betty there. and archie is judgmental of her for sure. i do think cheryl sees herself in betty at times and both hates and loves her for it depending on the day.
i will also say that betty gets a lot of heat for being a bad friend but the isolation and using of supporting characters (and veronica) as a prop plot for her storylines is just a flaw within the writing. they never let this girl breathe unless she's around jughead, tbh.
now betty been through a lot (writers never acknowledge the character's mental helath i know but everynow and then they made an effort for cheryl's and i always thought she and betty have few similitudes but at least she been able to let her put out her emotions)—i am sure they'll address her mental health in the way that makes it 100x worse at some pivotal moment that will be lost in the madness.
but i've read things that makes me really upset. they really think that a girl who was raised to be perfect, who had to deal with a cult and much more, the daughter of a serial killer, a girl who had to pretend that her boyfriend was dead and think maybe for the first hours it was her fault, doesn't deserve love because she kissed her childhood crush and drowned into this nostalgia when things were fine and,  rememeber? a week or something before idk she was literally at jughead's "funeral".—betty deserves love, no matter what anyone says about it. she's apologized, she lost jughead, she's paid those emotional consequences. it's not her fault that some people can't let that go. the only person who's opinion matters on that is jughead and they're going to work it out and move on and come back stronger than before as adults.
i know, i know, they want new endgames but...no. not only is riverdale not a show that does any type of slowburn, so i also don't think he's going to "get over" (like the b/a theories like to say) her and move on only to leave her what? alone? are they going to introduce a last minute love interest for her? so the show can erase 4 years of bughead history? i really, really don't think so. and not because i ship it but because, frankly, it's a business. and they know that their 2 most popular characters sell better together than apart.
that, and i don't remember what ted said exactly but he said something along the lines of them not being thrilled when he said they needed to break up the couples. that's not indicative of a show that has any interest in new long term love interests. no matter what parts of the fandom says.
she apologized for that 7 years ago now, and i'm sure she will again when bh reunites. she payed for her mistake, because it was just that, a mistake. she's currently using sex as a coping mechanism for being in a murderer hole for weeks or more, do i hate that? yes.—mood.
especially since archie didn't give a fuck about her and enjoyed sex, i'm sorry but i had to say it.—yeah, i am not a fan of the way he talked about someone who's supposed to have been his lifelong friend to someone who he sort of kept diminishing her to. not a good look to me. i get the narrative reasons for it but eh, still didn't like that.
they definitely didn't want us to root for them, they would have never had him talk like that otherwise. especially with such a stark contrast to jughead's soft concern and patience with her in the next episode.
but i'll never take that against betty like some people do. because it's just sex. but i hate she's feeling doing it in that way just for ignoring her trauma. i know i'm biased but not even stupid things she does will make me love betty less, because she's human, she does good and bad things, that's it. like everyone irl and in riverdale.—no one in riverdale is the best person at this point? like, they're all messed up (pop tate remains the exception, his perfection cannot be matched). we lose objectivity with our faves, sure, but at the end of the day, they're all flawed and make mistakes.
i hope that some people remember that compassion isn't actually a mythical concept and find a little for her in the future.
and she's a girl who happened to fall in love with a boy (and i happened to fall in love with both of them but that's not about me) who been through a lot too. she hurt him, sure. she apologized and now he wants to forgive her. because she's more than that stupid kiss. and we'll get bh exes to lovers 2k21.—you're right. bughead exes to lovers 2k21!
ok now i'm sorry this is way too long but i wanted to get this off my chest because i'm tired of all this betty hate and also because you love betty as much you love jughead and i love your takes on them. now i'm done, have a good day or night !!—you're sweet, lovely! i do love them both and i'm looking forward to seeing them reunited. you have a good day or night too!💜

Kevin Keller for the character ask game just because making Fangs sad is a war crime and outlawed by the Geneva convention
Oh boy do I have feelings about Kevin okay here we go. Based on this post
1. Favorite thing about them
He stands up for himself. He might have self image issues but that boy bites back and I kind of love it.
2. Least favorite thing about them
He can kind of be a bitch and it’s really hypocritical. I haven’t seen past mid season three so correct me if I’m way wrong, but from what I’ve seen thus far and in spoilers it seems like he’ll go from being mad at people for judging him and telling him off to judging people and telling them off in the same scene. Like Betty was trying to protect him when he insisted on going to Fox Forrest when the Black Hood was well active and he but her head off? Idk I think he needs to take a chill pull sometimes.
3. Favorite quote
[in response to, “Isn’t there a nice gay at your school?] “Yeah, me.” Hilarious and iconic. Loved this line so much. Think about it constantly
4. Brotp
Veronica and Kevin, and Cheryl and Kevin should have been expanded on and I STAND on that. Two different kind of power duos and I was obsessed with them both and neither really ever went anywhere. Kevin just remained Betty’s gay best friends and I hated it.
5. OTP
I don’t really ship him with anyone I’m gonna be honest. I don’t think the Riverdale writers did either lmao
6. Notp
Moose/Kevin. Kevin kept pressuring Moose to come out and it really bugged me. They met each other at the wrong time I think that Moose deserves better, and also that Kevin needs therapy. His inferiority complex keeps ruining his relationships and I want him to be happy
7. Random headcannon
He was bullied a lot for being both fat as a child and gay, so to deal with it he started to judge himself harshly, which lead to him judging other people very harshly which lead to him being very nosy and always having a lot to say about everything. This mixed with his defensive nature isn’t the best combination gonna be honest.
8. Unpopular opinion
He’s a really toxic representation for gay people. Some gays are like this and being feminine and hyper sexual is fine (I see hun as feminine and you can’t convince me otherwise) but it just really hit home that “stereotypical” sexualized and stigmatized “gay person” idea that straights had in their head for a long time. I think the two types of gays we had in media were Moose and Kevin - which is why it was so refreshing to see Fangs. Fangs felt like a really natural take. Idk if that makes sense pls don’t come for me
9. Song I associate with them
“F.E.E.L. G.O.O.D.” By R5
10. Favorite picture of them
He looks so good in this color oh my god
Tumblr media

betty still loves archie i don’t know what else to say to y’all. YES, she still loves jughead & he IS her safe option, despite what cheryl said. her & jughead were already dating…so, to keep the peace, she chose him. her SAFE option.
omg heyyy anon!! let me just tell you this is my first b/a anon and thus a very monumental ask for me. i am so glad you found me ngl. i feel empowered now, like i am part of something. did my name get added on the bughead shit list you mass send asks to?? how rad. i am very excited.
anyways my brain is very hazy from my anxiety nap and i just finished a can of redbull so idk if any of this will sound coherent.
it’s very fascinating to me how you guys label archie as the “safe” option when compared to jughead. 
1. falling in love/ committing to a relationship is never safe anon. it’s one of the most vulnerable things to do as a human. exposing all of one’s vulnerabilities and diving headfirst with all your guards down without any concrete conclusion of the future.
2. also i very clearly remember how jughead was labelled toxic for betty early s1/s2 by “anti-bh”. also jughead wrote betty as a teen sociopath with a murder lust and once compared a board game with the shitshow that their town is. i assure jughead is not a “safe” option
3. betty chose jughead not because he was a safe “option”. he was her only option. that’s what being in a relationship is. you choose the same person time and again. you choose them because you love them and they love you no matter what.
4. i seriously don’t understand why y’all want betty to be unsafe man. like in this economy? why would you want this troubled teen to choose an unsafe option. jughead is her home and he is her safe haven.
anyways anon. you don’t have to say anything. this relationship won’t work out because we have fundamentally differing opinions. i appreciate you taking a captcha test for me though.
stay sane, safe and sanitized.
