the thing about beautiful riverdale is that there are a couple of people in my life who seem to have learned the trick to see me turn into the happiest person on earth with the biggest smile under any circumstances which is asking me about riverdale

rvb15 part 3 (how is there a part 3) liveblog, i still remember nearly nothing about this season
grif's monologue to volleyball simmons has lyss's mic clipping out again
lyss: the way he did not deny grabbing ass... blue: with dick? all of us, instantly: yeah
"i wasn't aware you're bilingual" everyone @ me when i'm at work
this all hits so different after covid lmaoooooooo
lyss, during the grif-and-locus stuff: this is me and basia
(she's right)
this part has started off so strong that it makes the previous part even weaker lmao
"but i never got to say goodbye or thank you for being my friend" :(
"are you here to kill us?" "i sure get that a lot"
this armor color combo for locus is really great actually
carolina's interrogation of locus is good and i like the idea of her struggling with locus being a mirror of her and wash
i also really love locus being the new straight (lol) man to all the clownery
man season of the grimmons no kidding
i remember the first time i watched this season i didn't like locus's entry or exit but honestly i liked it well enough this time round
tucker!
lyss, after the time machine reveal: is this the riverdale plotline?
honestly if the middle chunk of this season was cut out or only about 10 minutes long then this whole season would have been much better
"the blues and me and carolina" red team carolina confirmed
this sarge moment!
simmons knife moment...
me and lyss out here metaphorically gripping each other's hands till our bones crack over the grimmons content
oh i'm pre-emptively sad
:(
: (
oh i forgot about this version of contact, it's good
"i mean, PTSD is forever, right?"
the character moments in this season were soooooo good but the plot was so all over the place... i will Think on all of this

Fanfic Writer Meme
Tagged by: @indraaas thanks babe
Tagging: @not-just-any-fangirl, @xambedo, @southsidewrites
Ao3 name: rivendell101 on every platform!
Fandoms: I divorced Fairy Tail, but lowkey want to rekindle the relationship. I was a Riverdale fan for like five minutes before it became hate watching. My Hero Academia is now my main squeeze.
Number of fics: 31 on AO3, 36 on FF, but some are crossed over? idk how many one-shots I have floating around on tumblr, lost forever in the void.
1. Fic you spent the most time on: Definitely Berserk. I put like two years of my life into that fic. It’s a beast and the only real “fame” I ever achieved writing fics lmao
2. Fic you spent the least time on: Probs a one-shot from like... 2013 or something.
3. Longest fic: Berserk at almost 240K
4. Shortest fic: Puddle Ducks. 599 words.
5. Most hits: Literally all of my answers for these “most” questions are going to be the same two fics lmao. On FF it’s Berserk with 224K hits. On AO3 it’s with your hands between your thighs with almost 5K hits. 
6. Most kudos: Berserk has ~1.4K favs on FF. with your hands between your thighs has almost 300 on AO3 and idk when that happened.
7. Most comment threads: I’m still shook that Berserk has over 4K reviews on FF.net and I’m never going to achieve that again. I’m not even going to bother with A03 because I know the most I’ve gotten is like ~40 on the previously mentioned smut one-shot for a ship I don’t even really like that much lmao
8. Fave fic you wrote: I really love the way darling, dearest, dead turned out, but I think I’m enjoying writing some like it hot way more than I should be lmao
9. Fic you want to rewrite/expand on: I’d really like to wrap up Berserk at some point, but every time I think about doing that I get wrapped up in another fic.
10. Share a bit of your WIP or share a story idea that you’re planning:
Okay, so @southsidewrites talked me into writing a dumb threesome fic, I’m almost 9K into it. I don’t know what I’m doing. It’s a great time lmao
You gasp as you nearly crash into Shouto’s chest, the hero closer than you thought. A big hand reaches out to steady you as you wobble on your heels, his palm gripping your waist in a firm yet gentle hold. His touch is hot even through your dress and you inhale sharply at the deliciously warm contact.
“Careful now,” he murmurs, voice deeper than usual. Midoriya and Bakugou’s bickering seems muffled by the quiet lull of his voice. Humor flickers in Shouto’s eyes and, very carefully, he shifts you so that you’re almost blocked from looking into Midoriya’s office. “You wouldn’t want to fall.”
It takes a second too long for you to find your voice. “You’re right,” you say a little breathlessly. He’s so close that you can smell his cologne, though you can’t quite figure out what it is. “Bakugou would never let me live it down.”
He doesn’t laugh, but you’ve known him long enough to recognize the amusement in his eyes. Slowly, and so gently that you almost don’t notice, his grip tightens on your waist.
“Oi, hurry the fuck up, Icy Hot!” Bakugou barks when Shouto hesitates too long in the doorway.
As usual, Shouto ignores him, instead glances behind you suddenly, and you follow his gaze to the intern still sitting behind your desk, awestruck and grinning like an idiot. You place a delicate hand on his bicep, drawing his attention away from the giddy teenager with a soft squeeze. “Something wrong, Shouto?”

Sweet Pea//Forever?
Tumblr media
Request: Can I get a imagine where the reader is archie twin sister ( faceclaim sophie Turner) and in a relationship with sweetpea please and thank you
“Y/n, where you going?” Your brother Archie asked you before you had the chance to slip out of the house.
“Just going to hang out with some friends.” You said quickly. “See you later.” You added and opened the door, you were halfway out when Archie called out to you again.
“I can drop you off, I’m going out too.” He offered and stood behind you.
“No, its okay. I can walk.” You argued.
“It’s no trouble. I don’t mind.” He pressed.
“I’ll be fine Archie. I can walk.” You replied quickly, he narrowed his eyes at you for a minute and then nodded.
“Whatever. Tell me if you need picking up okay.” He sighed and climbed into his car.
“I will. Have fun.” You told him happily and then jogged down the drive. You loved your brother more than anything but there were some things that were better for everyone if he didn’t know. For example that time that you and Jughead kissed when you were at a party ages ago and the small fact that you and Sweet Pea were dating and had been for the past 5 months. You decided that it was best for your twin not to know especially after all of the drama that had happened between the northside and the southside. Even though it had calmed down, you didn’t think it would be best to announce that you were dating Riverdale’s resident bad boy Sweet Pea, especially after the whole thing with the Red/Dark Circle and Archie waving a gun in Sweet Pea’s face. You and Sweet Pea decided to leave it for now and you would tell people when you thought the time was right. So far everything had been going great, you and Sweet Pea made each other incredibly happy and nobody suspected a thing. The sneaking about was fun, but sometimes it upset you because you couldn’t show everyone that you were dating Sweet Pea. Freakin’ Sweet Pea! And you didn’t like it when other girls flirted with him and you couldn’t do anything, but you knew he felt the same when boys flirted with you too. You hadn’t realised how lost in your own thoughts you had been until you found yourself stood in front of Sweet Pea’s trailer. You didn’t have a chance to knock before the front door swung open and a disheveled looking Sweet Pea stood in front of you in nothing but his underwear.
“Well isn’t that a pleasant sight to see on a fine Saturday morning.” You smirked and looked him up and down.
“Is that all I am to you, a piece of meat? My eyes are up here.” He teased making you laugh, then he moved out of the way so you could come in.
“Have you just woke up?” You asked as you leaned against his bedroom door frame.
“Yes. Its like the middle of the night.” He replied as he searched his wardrobe for some clothes.
“Sweet Pea, its 10:42.” You replied and rolled your eyes.
“My point. The middle of the night. On a Saturday I don’t get up until after midday.” He replied and eventually found a shirt.
“Ya know.” You started and walked slowly into his bedroom, closing the door behind you. “You don’t need to get dressed just yet.” You smirked and pulled the shirt out of his hands.
“I like where this is going.” He smiled and kissed you. He pushed you on the bed and pulled your shirt off you before climbing on top of you. Breaking the kiss, he kissed down your neck and chest, stopping when he got to your chest still covered by your bra. After leaving a lot of marks that you hoped you could cover, he climbed back up you and kissed you roughly, his hand trailing down to the waistband of your jeans. Before he went any further though he was interrupted by a crash from the kitchen.
“What was that?” You whispered.
“I dunno. Stay here.” He whispered back and slowly got off you.
“There is no way I’m gonna let you go out there alone. What if its a murderer, or a ghost?”
“A ghost? Really a ghost? Whats it gonna do, walk through me.” He rolled his eyes.
“You get what I mean. I’m not letting you go alone.” You argued.
“Fine.” He huffed. “But stay behind me okay.”
“Okay.” You agreed and you both slowly walked towards the bedroom door. Sweet Pea quickly pulled it open and you both cautiously stepped out of the room.
“Who the fuck are you?” Sweet Pea asked the hooded stranger who was facing away from you. It looked like they were trying to sneak back out. Before they had a chance to answer Sweet Pea had lunged towards them and pulled them back, raising his hand to hit them.
“WHAT THE FUCK MAN!” A familiar voice shouted. Sweet Pea put his arm down and loosened his grip slightly. He looked down at the man and then at you.
“Archie what the fuck are you doing here?” You asked annoyed and Sweet Pea let go of him completely, taking a few steps back from him.
“What am I doing here? What the hell are you doing here Y/n.” He asked equally annoyed.
“Well, I think its obvious what she’s doing here.” Sweet Pea commented and you elbowed him.
“You are not helping the situation Pea.” You mumbled and Archie looked between the two of you.
“Were you about to, you know?” Archie asked, only now realizing the lack of your clothes between you and Sweet Pea. Thank god you still had a bra and jeans on you thought.
“Well done, you should start solving mysterious with the rest of the Scooby gang again.” Sweet Pea teased again and you elbowed him again.
“And ‘Pea’? Whats that all about?” He asked.
“Thats my name.” Sweet Pea replied, clearly sick of the interruption.
“No, you’re name is Sweet Pea. I don’t think I have ever heard anyone call you Pea before.”
“Nobody has been as special as your sister. Or good in bed.” He added and laughed. Archie looked like he was about to smack him so you decided to step in.
“Okay! Time out. Sweet Pea go back to the bedroom.” You told him and Sweet Pea looked at you suggestively. “Not like that, to wait.”
“Being told what to do in my own trailer. Unbelievable.” He muttered and stomped inside.
“Archie, stay here while I, err put a shirt on okay, and then we’ll talk.” You told him and he nodded, averting his eyes from you. A few minutes later you came back out of Sweet Peas room with your shirt back on. “Do you wanna sit down?” You asked and he nodded again. “Okayyyy.” You said awkwardly and led him to the sofa. You both sat down and an uncomfortable silence fell over the two of you and you looked around the small living room. “Soooo. Where do you wanna star-”
“What the actual fuck.” Archie interrupted you, startling you slightly.
“What?” You asked.
“I’m your brother, your twin. I thought we were supposed to tell each other everything.” He said annoyed.
“Oh yeah, like you tell me everything you do, and about every single person you have dated. Are we forgetting about your weird relationship with Miss Grundy.”
“That was different.” He defended.
“Yeah, you’re right. My relationship isn’t illegal.” You retorted and he rolled his eyes at you.
“Whatever. I just thought you would tell me when you got a boyfriend. Is he your boyfriend?” He asked.
“Yeah, he’s my boyfriend. We’ve been together for 5 months and before you say anything mean or snarky just know that he makes me happy.”
“And I could totally kick your ass.” Sweet Pea called from the bedroom and you giggled slightly while Archie rolled his eyes.
“5 months? Why didn’t you tell me. You’re my sister, I’m supposed to keep you safe.”
“She is safe you ass!” Sweet Pea called again.
“Sweet Pea!” You warned.
“Okay, okay. No more. Even though it is my trailer.” He grumbled the last part and you could hear him lie down on the bed.
“I didn’t tell you because I knew you would react like this. And with everything that happened between the northside and southside, and the fight between the bulldogs and the serpents, and you waving a gun in his face. We just thought it would be better for everyone to wait until we knew there would be no judgement or arguing.” You explained. “Which clearly didn’t work.” You mumbled sadly and Archie’s expression softened.
“I’m happy for you.” He said after taking a deep breath.
“Really?” You asked surprised.
“Yeah. I’ve seen how happy you have been for the past 5 months. I didn’t know what was causing you to be so cheery all the time but I told myself if I found out what it was, I would make sure I did everything I could to make it stay, because I like seeing you happy. Especially after everything that has happened to us this year. You deserve to be happy.”
“Thank you Archie!!!” You squealed and hugged him making him laugh. “So you approve?” You asked hopefully.
“Yes, I approve. I can see how happy he makes you and he isn’t a bad person. I just got a shock when I came in and saw what you’s were about to do.”
“Yeah, about that. How did you know where I was?” You wondered.
“I didn’t. I knew that you must be keeping something from all of us because you had been so happy, and then when we were leaving today you were acting weird, so I thought they could be connected and I decided to follow you. I was going to walk in as soon as you got here but Jughead rang me so I had to answer that first.”
“Oh. Cool.” You shrugged. “Sweet Pea! You can come out now.”
“Oh, thank you for allowing me to come out of my own room in my own trailer.” Sweet Pea replied sarcastically and walked over to you, fully clothed and kissed you on the head.
“Well. I’ll see you at home Y/n, I’ll see you later Sweet Pea.” Archie said and stood up. It made you laugh slightly seeing your brother stood next to Sweet Pea because you could tell he was trying to be intimidating, but nothing was as intimidating as Sweet Pea. “You better not hurt my sister.” He warned.
“What are you gonna do about it red?” Sweet Pea asked and ruffled his hair.
“I mean it. Don’t hurt her. She deserves so much happiness and love, I’m depending on you to do that.” He carried on, unaffected by Sweet Pea intimidating him.
“Don’t worry. I plan on loving her and making her happy for as long as she’ll let me.” He told him firmly and Archie nodded at him before leaving.
“Well, that was.”
“Anti-climatic? You’re telling me.” He finished your sentence and you nodded. “Do you wanna finish what we started?” He asked.
“Definitley.” You agreed and jumped up from the sofa, dragging him into the bedroom. “So where were we again?” You asked.
“Oh, just about here.” He said teasingly before pushing you back on the bed and taking your shirt off again.
“I love you so much. You know that right?” You asked.
“Of course I do. And I love you too. I plan on loving you forever.” He reassured you and smiled sweetly at you.  
“Forever?”
“Forever.” He replied softly and kissed you sweetly.

05. what’s your nationality ??
‘murican
06. what’s your favorite band and/or musical artist ??
i’m super indecisive about everything, so it’s difficult for me to pick faves (as you’ll see in a sec) but… mac miller,  post malone, johnny cash, eminem, tenacious d, colter wall, kehlani, bruno mars, snoop dogg, elvis presley, justin timberlake, sublime, the rolling stones, etc etc there’s probably a lot i’m forgetting tho. i like most types of music except country. well, modern country anyway.
07. what’s your dream job ??
uh, i don’t have one? i mean yeah, i’d love to be a writer, or game dev, or a narrative director on a game, or direct, write, or act in movies or television, but like…i could live without any of that stuff. i just want to make a decent living, be able to own a house, not completely hate my job. yknow, not a glamorous life but a good one.
08. what’s one place you would love to visit ??
idk there’s a lot of places i’d like to go, but i’d most like to visit alpha centauri, even tho that’ll never happen lol
09. what’s your favorite tv show ??
i can’t pick that! but i love a lot of shows. general hospital, lucifer, the 100, supernatural, stranger things, izombie, south park, legends of tomorrow, once upon a time, arrow (at times), dragon ball, big brother, riverdale, chilling adventures of sabrina, that 70′s show, the ranch, umm… i could probably keep listing forever.
10. what’s your favorite movie ??
hmmmm, again i’ve got a list but… joe dirt, the new guy, why him, the waterboy, 50 first dates, all the spider-man movies, thor ragnarok, man of steel, 21 jump street, 22 jump street ,and a fuckton more lol

constantly in flux, but the current faves are — creep by radiohead, stay by post malone, no below by speedy ortiz, unshaken by d’angelo, cruel cruel world by willie nelson, wanksta by 50 cent, shooter by lil wayne & robin thicke, stressed out by 21 pilots, self care by mac miller (along with practically everything on his final album), and i will always, un-ironically love only in america by riff raff. he’s not the greatest ever but that song is hilarious and always puts me in a good mood.
12. what’s your favorite sport ??
can i say rocket league? lol
13. what’s your favorite food ??
pizza, unquestionably. cereal is a damn close second tho. or pot stickers. damn, i’m hungry… 
14. what’s your favorite face claim to use ??
typically, i’ve always really liked using paul wesley, chris wood, and matt daddario. i’m using lindsey morgan for the first time now though, and i really like her as an fc too.
15. what’s your least favorite face claim ??
to use?? um pretty much any singer or model just bc their resources aren’t too great. i really didn’t enjoy using pete davidson as much as i thought i would, either lol
to see… uh probs emma roberts or andy biersack. emma for obvs reasons but also bc i once had a really bad experience with people using those fcs. idm people using whoever they feel like using tho.
16. what’s your favorite character of yours to play ?? which do you think you’re most like ??
oh man, uhh i really enjoy writing chrissy & theo. they both speak to me. but tbh i’m not much like any of my characters? i’m boring af so i tend not to make any like me lol. i am kinda like theo in the sense that i’m quiet, and really just try to be a good person. other than that i’m most like jason solely based on the fact we’re both human lol
17. what’s your sexuality ??
danversexual. attracted only to fictional danvers women, examples including carol, kara, and alex danvers.
lmfao but nah i’m just a boring straight boy. well, like 99.9% straight. jensen ackles makes me question shit.
18. what’s the last movie you saw in a cinema/theater ??
captain marvel (thanks to dani lol). only two months late but it was worth the experience haha.
19. what’s the worst injury you’ve ever had ??
thankfully i’ve never really hurt myself too terribly except for a broken wrist, but between the ages of 10-17 i’d occasionally hurt my back by sitting weird, usually in an attempt to play video games without the glasses i desperately needed lol. once when i was like 11 i laid belly down on the couch with my elbows up on the arm of it for like three hours, which messed me up for days, then a few other times i hurt myself, but another bad one when i was 17, i had my back curved while sitting and propping my laptop up on my knee, tried to move and literally just cried, crawled on the floor, and laid there all night until i forced myself to move in the morning. lol luckily it hasn’t happened since i lost a little weight.
20. what’s a random or interesting fact about you ??
uhm, nothing? i literally can’t think of one, i’m dull af. i uh.. i replaced my own cpu cooler once? lmfao
21. do you listen to music while you write ??
sometimes. a lot of time i just like the silence or ambient background noise, but if i’ve got a fitting playlist for the vibe of what i’m trying to write, i’ll use it!
22. are you a morning, day, evening, or night writer ??
i’m a never writer, apparently v___v but lol ideally a night writer, my best work is between the hours of 12am & 4am, but my sleeping schedule is so inconsistent, and so is my dad’s who spends literally every waking moment of his telling me different stuff he wants done, so it’s tough to hit that sweet spot. i write whenever i get a chance tho.
23. have you ever roleplayed intoxicated ??
lol nah i’ve never even had a drink. like what teenager doesn’t have a drink at some point?? i told you i’m lame.
24. what language or languages do you speak ??
english, barely. and assassin’s creed 2 taught me some italian swears. and ac: odyssey has had me occasionally dropping “malaka” bombs since the day i first played it haha.
25. how long have you roleplayed ??
officially, about 9 years. i started at 11 on myspace, rping dragon ball z stuff. but basically about 12 years, if you count how from the ages of 8-11 i’d put an anime pic up on my myspace, pretend i was older, and talk to roleplayers i didn’t realize were roleplayers lmfao.
26. favorite roleplay genre ??
i like pretty much anything, tbh. as long as it’s well thought out, has an interesting plot, or whatever. sometimes it doesn’t even need that, it just needs to catch my eye or line up with something i’m looking for. but yeah, supernatural, multi-fandom, sci-fi, romance, town rps, high school/college rps, anime rp (well, pokemon mostly), harry potter… i’ve done it all tbh and don’t particularly have a favorite.
27. one sound you hate & one you love ??
the sound of cotton stretching is the absolute worst thing to me. or scratching cotton. idk, it just sends chills up and down my spine and makes my hands feel weak lmfao. i’m weird. i really love the sound of rain, or fire crackling, or like “ambient” harp or ukulele music.
28. do you believe in ghosts ??
short answer, yes. long answer… i’m pretty sure i was friends with a ghost girl as a kid?? like no joke, even looking back at it through rational “adult” eyes, i’m still convinced. my fam moved into a new apartment, and pretty much right after that i started having dreams about a girl my age at the time (11-12). i’d never seen her before but the dreams would be like just conversations, like i was visiting a friend or something. i don’t remember them much, but i do remember the feeling of someone else in my room all the time, like you know how if someone else is around you just know even if you’re not looking at them? like that. there was even one night i was getting in bed, laid there a minute, and then i could have absolutely sworn somebody came in the room and sat down next to me on the bed because i felt the bed sink a little under their weight, but i looked and no one was there. i had a really vivid conversation/dream/thing that night. then a few nights later, for the first time since moving there i didn’t have one. the next morning my dad was really freaked out and said he fell asleep in the chair, but woke up and couldn’t breathe, and felt cold little hands over his mouth. he rationalized it as just waking up from a nightmare but i didn’t think so, so that night when i went to sleep and saw her i got really upset, yelled at her for it, and woke up right after. then i never saw or heard anything even remotely similar again, like she left or disappeared or something. it’s so weird, and i know how crazy it sounds, but yeah. don’t get me started on the topic of ghosts lmfao. THEN AGAIN, like a year later we had a carbon monoxide scare, but i really doubt the two were related because that would mean there was an entire year that we were breathing it in and the monitor didn’t do anything lol
29. do you believe in aliens ??
no alien story, thankfully, but it just makes no sense not to believe in them to me. like, we probably don’t have them on earth, and we’ve probably never encountered any, but it’s as close as you can get to a mathematical certainty that there’s some other life out there in the universe.
30. do you believe in true love ??
like, people who are just meant for each other, like romantic soulmates? nah not really. but i believe that two people can grow to truly love one another. whether it’s based off an initial attraction/infatuation, or a friendship, or both. i’d actually argue that’s a simple explanation of the biological science behind the feeling of love, but that’s an essay i’m not gonna write lol. but there’s apparently a lot of different types of love, so i guess “true love” is suggestive? 
also slightly unrelated but i don’t-quite-believe-in-but-am-open-to-the-idea-of soulmates, not necessarily as two souls who are just meant for each other romantically and always end up together, but more as two or more souls that gravitate toward each other to make up the important people in each other’s lives, like family members, lovers, or close friends. but that’s more of a theoretical idea/possibility than an actual belief of mine.
31. do you hold grudges ??
um, yes. lol i try not to, and i really do want everyone to be their best/happiest selves, but some people man… some people can take a long walk off a short pier lmao
32. do you have any obsessions right now ??
PO KE MON GOTTA CATCH EM ALLLLL. also… life is strange (thanks dani lol). supernatural. stranger things (thanks dani & steph) the 100 / clexa / becho  (thanks steph). lucifer. captain marvel (thanks dani). the song “creep” by radiohead and all its covers (tom ellis, haley reinhart, etc). cyberpunk 2077 (thanks dani). as you can see, i’m easily influenced lmfao.
33. do you drive & if so, have you ever been in a crash ??
nope i don’t drive, precisely because i’d definitely end up in a crash lol
34. do you like the smell of gasoline ??
uh that’s a big fat no from me, chief
35. do you prefer writing fluff, angst, or smut ??
i like it all equally, i think. i just really like writing & rp in general. i did run a smut rp once in the past tho. it gets old quick tbh and is the one of the three i can live without lol
36. are you in a relationship ??
bahahahahahahaha no.
37. grab the nearest book to you and turn to page 23, what is the 17the line ??
❝  “and why would that be?” kronos’s golden eyes glittered.  ❞
— the last olympian by rick riordan.
38. put your playlist on shuffle and list the first four songs that pop up:
1. season of the witch – donovan 2. riot van – arctic monkeys 3. busta rhymes – qveen herby 4. der kommissar – after the fire
also i gotta cheat because it’s too perfect that the next two are
5. stay – mac miller (one of my favorites ever that i forgot to mention above) 6. only in america – riff raff (i just love this ok. the video is hilarious but tw james franco for those that don’t like him)

wait wait i gotta check who wrote this.
ahh steve yockey, good
i checked because i was like “wait, that doesn’t seem like the deadly duo writing style, or name choice”
now it makes sense
.........well her name was harper but close enough

how dare all three of these incredibly white people be so cute? why

wiNSTON IS THE CUTEST MOST ADORABLE HUMAN ON THIS PLANET
but given the nature of this show, that makes me suspect he’s a vampire or something
-
02:21
ohhhhkay that’s the music and the sequence from that spider man movie
Tumblr media
-
02:22
now i think he’s gonna die
-
like. immediately
he’s gonna get hit by a car or something
oh god i can’t look

02:23
................................yup

02:26
jack: “maybe i’m allergic to sitting around doing nothing”
he is so much like cas
-
02:26
dean: “cas is an insurance policy on those hunts”
OH GOD NOW I JUST REALISED HOW BADLY I WANT AN EPISODE OF JUST CAS HUNTING BY HIMSELF AND SOLVING A CASE ALL BY HIMSELF
also with jack. and with dean and sam. but CAS ALL BY HIMSELF
-
02:28
Tumblr media

02:29
jack: “we can be hunting buddies!!”
dean: “okay. A) don’t call it that--”
that little nervous huff though
WHY DEAN? IS THAT WHAT YOU AND CAS CALL EACH OTHER WHEN YOU NEED TIME ALONE? “HUNTING BUDDIES”

Tumblr media
“DICK’S RED ROOSTER DINER”
tell me that doesn’t sound like five-star “eat some penis cock here” signage
and dean drives up with his manly phallic symbol
-
02:37
i love this woman for making dean make this face
Tumblr media
-
02:38
I GASPED OUT LOUD
Tumblr media
ANYONE WHO DOUBTED ME ON THE PHALLIC DINER NAME BEING A BISEXUAL DEAN THING, CASE IN POINT
THAT IS THE MOST PHALLIC NON-PENIS OBJECT I HAVE EVER SEEN
(i have so many questions. did someone find it in a thrift store and keep it for years until they found the right way to use it? did they get it made specially? THAT THING EXISTED FOR THIS EXACT PURPOSE)
THERE’S A CAKE RIGHT THERE, WHICH IS A DEAN-LIKES-MEN THING (VS. DEAN-LIKES-WOMEN BEING PIE)
AND HE PUSHES IT AWAY WHEN THE LADY IS LIKE “DATING VS SEX, SOMETIMES YOU JUST HAVE THE SEX”
DEAN RESISTS THE SEX WITH MEN BECAUSE HE WANTS COURTING & DATING FIRST
WITH CAS
BECAUSE WHO THE FUCK ELSE
I am dying 
this symbolism is killing me
great!!!! i want to place an order for 3000 more of these please, thank you, i’ll pay in cash
fyi there is no doubt in my mind that dean is bi and knows it. he’s written as bi, the writers know it, the directors know it, the set decorators know it, and jensen knows it (he’s intelligent and he has a dirty mind, he knows exactly what that cock means. like, neither dean or jensen need need to know what “bi” means or remember what the flag looks like to know the concept and experience occasional attraction to men as a part of his personality)

02:55
oh “tara” not kara or cara

02:57
trust dean to be surrounded by cocks and be like “but i like pie women”

02:59
headcanon: dean sniffs cocks before he puts them in his mouth
Tumblr media
BUT SERIOUSLY THEY HAD HIM PUT A COCK IN HIS MOUTH. THAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED. VISUALLY. WE JUST SAW THAT HAPPEN WITH OUR OWN EYES.
WOMEN PIE IN ONE HAND AND MEN COCK IN THE OTHER ARE YOU KIDDING ME
I’M FUCKING REELING HERE
DEAN IS THE MOST BISEXUAL
HE STARTS WITH THE WOMEN PIE BUT THEN HE’S LIKE YEAH OKAY I’LL TRY THIS MEN COCK ... PRETTY GOOD YUP
I DIDN’T THINK THEY’D EVER TOP THE CAKE=MEN THING BUT THEY DID. THEY EVEN PUT THE CAKE AND THE COCK TOGETHER TO PAIR THEM TOGETHER AS SIMILAR METAPHORS (SEEN IN THAT EARLIER SCREENSHOT)
I’M NEVER TAKING CAPS LOCK OFF AGAIN
no but actually 911 hello yes this is obscene
-
sidenote, this is reminding me slightly of my destiel chicken au Roost
three guesses why
-
03:07
jack: “no, you back off, old man”
FOR SOME REASON I’M HARDCORE ROOTING FOR JACK RIGHT NOW
EVEN THOUGH THAT CLEARLY HURT DEAN’S FEELINGS
-
03:12
harper’s apartment is #2
two people, takes two to tango
two of cups in tarot is new love/romance/relationship/friendship
-
03:17
harper and jack getting along
was harper meant to be a cas parallel or was the trenchcoat just a visual thing at the start? because she wore a completely different coat when he brought jack to her place
i considered that her thing with the old man, paired with jack calling dean “old man” maybe made it a “dean’s getting older but cas is immortal” thing which makes me VERY SAD
-
did dean just call vance “archie” ? as in archie comics? as in riverdale?
-
i feel like there’s some form of symbolism in another man wrestling dean so he goes tumbling into a waterfall of romance novels
-
03:32
“a brass nail dipped in sugar water can kill it”
sooooooo... something brass covered in soda
(edit: or just shoot it, okie dokie)
-
03:37
harper: “it’s a little game we play”
well i mean... if you’re gonna be undead and magic, then this does seem like a fun kinky thing
seducing other boys and killing them
sure
-
03:45
dean: “you know, jack, you’re pretty smart sometimes”
yeah
i love them both <3
also when dean said “love gets crazier that that” i expected jack to ask dean if he’d ever been in love
-
03:47
OH MAN
that was a great episode 10/10 easily. my favourite episode from this season so far
my favourite part was dean + all the cocks
best part was sam comparing charlie to the musca and convincing her to stick around
i LOVED the two hunts, and getting to see two different teams doing unrelated things but enjoying both
i like that harper didn’t die
i love that charlie and sam saved the black guy and he didn’t die
idek what else to say, this was a fine piece of writing
and i can’t even complain about a lack of representation, really, since everyone besides dean/sam/jack either turned out dead or evil and that would just add to the representation problem
(BUT WHERE WAS CAS????????????? WHERE WAS CAS????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? LITERALLY DON’T EVEN KNOW)
I am worried about jack but know he’ll ultimately be fine
I WILL NEVER BE OVER THE BISEXUAL DEAN THING THOUGH
THAT WAS A PYRAMID OF PURE 22 CARAT GOLD AND I LOVE EVERYONE WHO HAD A HAND IN CREATING THAT FOREVER. especially director richard speight jr, since i have the feeling he mostly concocted this himself since it was 100% visual and maybe not even in the script and he’s done unscripted penis jokes before

NEW ORLEANS PT 1.
TIME FRAME: 29th March 2019, morning. LOCATIONS: Royal Sonesta Hotel & Looking For Alaska set, Louisiana.  DESCRIPTION: Madelaine comes to visit and Jordan takes her to work with him. Ft. @madelame-x
Madelaine: 7:10 AM, and there she was, looking in a mirror and applying the second coat of red lipstick on her face, trying to make sure she didn't go out of line with it with her hands shaking so much. Jordan had told her to meet him down at 7:15, since he had an early morning but got off at about midday, so she had arranged herself to put together an outfit that was proper to go out for lunch and maybe some drinks in the afternoon, but also was appropriate to wear at this time in the morning. A nice tan skirt with a black shirt and a pair of heeled army boots, that would do the trick and make her not look like she was worrying to much. Quick on her feet, the actress pulled her hair back and ruffled it with her fingers while dusting in some dry shampoo for volume and she was out like a rocket, racing to the elevator and wishing he wasn't downstairs waiting for her. He was. Whoops "Hi hi hi, I'm here, I'm sorry it took forever, I didn't know what to wear and- Ugh" She said, ranting as she found her place next to him, a big smile cracking her face now that they were together again "But I'm here now, ready for duty!"
Jordan: Jordan hadn't entirely thought the whole 'taking Madelaine to set' thing through. Only a handful of people knew she was there visiting him, all of them being crew members rather than the actual actors, who he knew he'd have a real swell time trying to explain the situation to. Still, he wanted them to meet her. To show her this new chapter of his life that he was admittedly very excited about. They'd cross the bridge of awkward introductions when it came to it. A little later than they had arranged, Madelaine appeared in the hotel lobby, and he silently reminded himself that next time he'd encourage her to share a room with him so he could hurry her along in the morning. Not like he was mad, though. It was almost impossible to be mad at someone for making you late for work when that someone looked that damn good. "It's cool, I can make the time up on the road. I'm just happy you're coming today. Work just got that little bit more exciting" he assured her, beckoning her out of the door and towards the car park.
Mads: She’d met so many of Travis’ friends when they were together, but this was co-star, these were guys that Jo was gonna see for the next three or four months, so Madelaine was pretty adamant in making a good impression. “Yeah, of course, I wanna be there” She said with a soft smile. She didn’t know how to work around Jordan now that she was out in the clear with her feelings, and he was feeling that too. She wanted to lean up and kiss him, grab his hand, but she needed to hold herself back. Following him towards the car, she slipped in and buckled up “I’m so ready. Are you gonna be working all day today? I can make myself useful or like, scarce. Like I can go and film something? Don’t feel like you need to worry about me” She tried to explain, she wanted to make sure he wasn’t caring after her.
Jordan: Setting off on the short journey to set, Jordan relished leaving the windows rolled down as the Louisiana air was a lot milder than that in Vancouver. It was a welcome change for him that he could leave the house sans his hoodie, although he still rarely did, and the drive to work was only made better by the scenic route that he past daily as they shot on location. "I'm only doing a short scene today, it'll probably take a couple of hours so it's up to you what you wanna do in the mean time. I mean, you can come watch me get my horrific hairstyling done and meet everyone, then it might be nice for you to take a walk around the place? We're shooting around the authors old boarding school, and there's a pretty nice lake right in the middle of it. Makes a change from filming in a backlot. But if you get bored, you can always go in my trailer. I'll give you the keys."
Mads: Madelaine looked at Jordan for a little bit too long when he rolled down the windows and started the car. There was something a little bit special about seeing him driving in total peace, the wind blowing his hair back... There was something special. Madelaine leaned her back against the car and took a deep breath in, running her hand donw her hair “Oh the Bieber hairstyle? I get to see how that gets created? Damn, I’m a lucky girl. But yeah, don’t worry about it, I’ll keep myself occupied. How’s this shoot been for you? I mean, have you started shooting yet or has it just been prep?” Mads asked, looking sideways at him with a small smile.
Jordan: Shaking his head slightly along with the soft chuckle that fell from his lips, Jordan could tell there wouldn't be any living that hairstyle down among his Riverdale castmates for quite some time, and he thanked the lord that he didn't have to look quite so comical on set with them all the time. "Yeah, we've already started shooting. We're on the second episode at the moment, so you've got quite some time for it to come out yet, no digging for spoilers already, a'ite?". Glancing over at Madelaine, Jordan couldn't help but grin at her - the fact she was even here was surreal enough in itself. He had always thought Drew or Vanessa would be the first to come and visit him, but oh how the tables were turning. Ten minutes later, they were pulling into the lot of the old boarding school, and Jordan blitzed through the security they had set up there to lead Madelaine to his first stop of the day - the hair and makeup trailer. Unsurprisingly, Charlie and Jay were already in there - the two whom were playing best friends with a rivalry of sorts with Jordan's character, when in reality, they all got along like a house on fire. Immediately, Jordan went over to the pair with Madelaine in tow. "Should've known you two would need an earlier call-time for the make up team to work on your faces." He quipped, greeting them both with a gentle slap on Jay's back. Then, he noticed theirs eyes graze past him to Madelaine, and so he gestured towards her, eager to get the introductions over with. "This is Mads, obviously." As if he hadn't brought her up in conversation before. "And Mads, this is Charlie and Jay. Or, Pudge and Takumi, should I say?".
Madelaine: Laughing when Jordan spoke about spoilers, Madelaine put her right hand up and crossed her heart, zipping her lips shut and nodding "Girl scout honor, I promise" She added with a serious tone before cracking up "No but seriously, I'm so excited to see what this is all gonna be about and see you doing your thing" She said, nudging his arm gently as he drove. Pulling into the parking lot, the redhead followed suit beside Jordan as they went over to hair and make up, where she officially met two of his cast mates. -Be cool, be nice, don't be awkward, it's just friends- Madelaine repeated in her head as she saw Jordan interact with them and then having eyes fall on her "Hey guys" She said, reaching around Jordan to greet the two boys with a hug and then stepping back "It's good to finally meet the guys who are gonna be spending as much time with Jo as we have... All I have to say is good luck, you're gonna need it" She teased Jordan rolling her eyes back and looking at him sideways, giving him a small wink.
Jordan: Jordan couldn't help but feel a certain kind of glee while watching his castmates interact for the first time - he would always consider Riverdale his proper roots within the business, and the cast his original acting family, so it was nice getting to merge the two together rather than feeling like he had performed a cut and run. Already, they were bantering, of course with him as the butt of the jokes, but that was to be expected considering he was the common 'denominator'. "Yeah, yeah, you all know you'd be lost without me." He retaliated, immediately being dragged into the makeup chair by the stylists for making them wait. "Mads and I are probably going to hit up Bourbon Street for some drinks later, if anyone's down for it? Someone drop Kristine, Sofia and Landry a text so she doesn't have to put up with our asses without more female company". Turning back to Madelaine, with clumps of hair already being dragged across his forehead, Jordan shot her a thumbs up. "Got your back".
Mads: The anxiety of meeting new people and dealing with unknown situations was starting to die down. Make up trailers weren’t something foreign to her, and the people around her were being genuinely nice to her, so as the minutes passed, Madelaine could feel her shoulders dropping and the tension leaving her body. Looking at Jordan as he proposed his friends join them on Bourbon street, the redhead nodded her head and smiled “Yeah, of course, you guys should come! The more the merrier, since I’m stuck with this one the whole weekend” She joked, thumb pointing at Jordan. Winking back at him for the thumbs up, Madeline couldn’t help but smile a little “Thanks, bud. Nice hairstyle we got going on” She teased him, earning a chuckle from the other two guys.
Jordan: After the agreement from the boys, Jordan finally sat still in his chair to let the crew get to work on him, satisfied that he'd set up an evening that would hopefully show Madelaine a good time. He'd be damned if she'd travelled all of this way and went back home with no memories to take from it. He was just about settling down when his hairdresser asked the question that had him writhing in his seat "so this is your girlfriend, Jordan?". Great. He should've expected it, bringing her to work like this, but his voice still managed to crack as he responded, eliciting a quiet snort from Charlie. "No, no, no. Just a friend. A good one. She wanted to come hang for a while. Right, Mads?".
Madelaine: Yeap, there was the question she knew would come, but damn it came a lot sooner than she imagined. Madelaine had been looking down at her phone, scrolling away on Instagram and having her stories at the ready for when Jordan was all Bieber-ed up, but hearing his hair girl ask the question almost had her dropping it screen down. His voice cracked, and she felt hers go a little bit higher than usual "Yeah... Yeah we're friends" She said with a nod, looking from Jordan to the hairdresser "I wanted to come see what this was all about! I've been reading the book to be a supportive friend and I wanted to witness it coming to life" Because coming here just for Jordan was a red flag if she'd ever seen one.
Jordan: Jordan was glad he didn't get into costume until after the hair and makeup or there was a great possibility he'd be sweating into Kevin's clothes right now. Seeing Madelaine squirm along with him almost made up for it, though. At least he wasn't the only one feeling completely awkward about it, but he had to give her kudos for her quick thinking. He was pretty sure she hadn't started reading the book, or she would've told him about it, wouldn't she? Seeing an opportunity to get Madelaine a little more worked up, Jordan shot a smug smile over at her which went unseen by the hair stylist. "Oh you have? What's your favorite part, Mads? I don't think you've told me this before".
Madelaine: What an asshole. What a raging asshole, he was doing this just to wind her up. She was a pretty good liar, she could bullshit her way out of most situations, parking tickets, getting pulled over for speeding, you name it, she's done it. But this, she couldn't get out of this. "Yeah well, started reading it on the plane on my way from Los Angeles last night, didn't really have much time to talk to you about it. Only got into the first chapter, so that's... That part's good" She said with a smile towards him, the smug look on his face making her want to punch him.
Jordan: It was almost impossible not to break into a laugh while watching her struggle, but she managed to pull through without a hitch and Jordan had to inwardly applaud her for it. The hair stylists wrong assumption seemed to have her not wanting to overstep again, so she didn't say much else for the rest of the time that it took to do his hair and powder his face, then he was done and it was time to get into costume. Grabbing the clothing bag which contained all of Kevin's outfit for the scene, Jordan made his way back over to Madelaine and placed a hand on the small of her back. "Come on, I'll show you my trailer" He encouraged, earning a quip from Jay about how he needed to be back for filming in twenty minutes, so they'd better 'hurry'. Jordan knew exactly what he was implying, and figured he'd play up to it, so as they were making their way out the door he threw a response back over his shoulder. "You give me too much credit. I only need five".
Madelaine: The time in the make up trailer went by so quickly after their little wordplay, which made Madelaine feel a little uncomfortable at first, but now she was back in her own skin and she was looking forward to exploring a lot more of what the set of Alaska had to offer. Watching Jordan get up and grab Kevin's wardrobe for the day, Madelaine nodded stepped out of his way for him to leave first, the trailer was far too crowded with her just standing there. Jay's words made her laugh, rolling her eyes at the implications. Boys. The redhead chose to remain silent and laugh a little when she saw Jordan's face saying he only needed five minutes before exiting the trailer. "Five minutes? Looks like you're all talk but no game there, bud" She said, falling into step right next to him "Also, asshole! I've not even started the book, fuck you!"
Jordan: As they made their way towards his trailer, Jordan finally let the shit-eating grin that he was holding back overtake his features once she cursed at him, and he slung an arm over her shoulder to draw her into him. "Ah, don't fret over it, you saved yourself. Couldn't resist making you feel even more uncomfortable. I'll make it up to you". He promised, spinning the keys to his trailer round on his finger before letting them inside. "Welcome to my humble abode, gingey. Make yourself at home. I've just got to get all Kevin'd up". Before everything...before their video, before Vanessa's party, before their confessions, Jordan would have shut himself in the trailer bathroom to get into his costume, but that didn't cross his mind now that they had reached a new level within their...friendship. Hell, he had already stripped down to his boxers infront of her at Nesschella, why should this be any different? With that in mind, he wasted no time in pulling his hoody off from over his head and kicking off his boots, acutely aware of the time slipping out from under him. "So, does that mean you actually plan to read the book then?".
Madelaine: There was a strange feeling when she felt drawn into Jordan's side, biting on her lower lip and sliding her arm around his waist as well, slipping her hand in the middle pocket of his hoodie and looking up at him. The closeness was one thing, but they could've had this in any other time. It was the lack of awkwardness ever since they'd had the talk that made life a lot easier for Madelaine and her mind. Stepping inside the trailer, the redhead couldn't help but look around. It was just like every other trailer, but there were a couple things here and there that made it feel a bit more personal to the character. She threw herself on the couch, feet tucked under her bum and she watched him change, the sight of him stripping to his pants wasn't even something she flinched at or tried to look away "Pretty good looking trailer you've got here bud, I'm glad they're treating you nicely or I would've had to have a talking to" She said with a small smile "Yeah of course... Gotta be supportive, gotta know what you're gonna be talking to me about, you know?"
Jordan: Now that the barrier had been broken down between them, Jordan knew he was going to relish holding Madelaine that little bit closer, and trying his luck with little bursts of affection that he had so desperately been craving since his break up. He had gone from having it all, to getting nothing, so it was an understatement to say it was nice getting to even cuddle into someone again. Hopping on one foot as he haphazardly got out of his pants, Jordan tossed them aside and got into his 'weekday warrior' clothes instead - the whole get up looking far more Reggie Mantle than Sweet pea. "That might just be the cutest non-girlfriend thing ever." He teased, referring back to their conversation with the hair stylist. "Alright, I've got to dash." Moving over to where Madelaine sat, Jordan folded himself over to lean in closer to her, riding a random surge of confidence now that they were alone, spurred on also by the fact he'd admittedly missed her lips. "Think I can get something for good luck?"
Madelaine: Scrolling through her phone and texting her friends while Jordan changed, Madelaine looked at his brand new clothing style and sighed a little bit "You know, I do miss the leather jacket and ripped jeans, the snake tattoos... You suit that vibe a lot more than preppy stud kinda guy" She said with a small laugh, letting herself relax for a moment. How they'd gone from walking on egg shells around each other and beating around the bush to this level of confidence around each other was baffling, it escaped her. "I know, right? I'm just so adorable all the damn time" She said, throwing her phone on her lap and framing her face to try to pull of the most angelical face. Nodding her head when he said he had to dash, Madelaine was just about to say something about exploring and filming some content for YouTube when he got all close and personal with her, and she couldn't help but give him a smile when he asked for a kiss. Her hands went to the edges of his jacket and brought him down to her level, pressing a kiss on his lips and lingering for a little longer than a regular good luck kiss "How's that for luck?" She said with a small smile when she let him go "Go kill it, Kevin, and have fun"
Jordan: He agreed with her to no ends about the costume - Sweets wardrobe felt like a second skin to him, so switching it up was weird, and he missed his fake little switchblade. Still, it wasn't going to prevent him from acting like himself around Madelaine, even while dressed as a stranger. He couldn't help but smile against her lips, and he was sure she'd be able to feel it, so he kept it plastered on even when she pulled away. "I think it kinda had the opposite effect - what are my lines again?" He quipped, straightening up and beginning to head out of the door. "I'd have a lot more fun staying in here, but I'll try. See ya in a bit, Mads. Have fun doing...whatever it is you're going to do".
Madelaine: The little smile that formed on Jordan’s lips when he pulled back from the kiss mimicked her own, and it looked so good on them. They had both been in very long and very committed relationships, and the idea of jumping straight back into another one wasn’t the best one, but she was happy he was on the same page and they had been able to talk about it and now, it felt like the most comfortable thing ever, and Madelaine was very happy about that. “Mhm, better remember them fast or I won’t be allowed back here” She said with a laugh, leaning back down on the couch “I’ll stay here, then maybe go out for some coffee and do some exploring? I promise I won’t get in trouble. I’ll see you when you’re done, Jo” She said, blowing him a kiss from the couch.

Warnings: none!
Summary: The reader and Jughead are asked to help Kevin by recording the making of ‘Carrie: The Musical’. 
Word Count: 2601
A/N: Hey guys! I managed to get my first one-shot out for this blog! WOO! I hope you guys enjoy this idea that I had inspired by Episode 2x18. Bear with me as it is my first time writing with these characters :)
Tumblr media
“Carrie the Musical will be the most epic three-night-spectacular of your lives,” Kevin announced to the group, looking way too excited and enthusiastic for a Monday morning. “You all have to be part of it!”
At that moment, you and Jughead let out a simultaneous groan. Kevin, Betty, Veronica and Archie looked over at the pair of you.
“Oh, come on Y/N!” Betty exclaimed, “I understand Jug not wanting to sing and dance, but why not you? I’ve heard you sing to yourself, and you’re great!”
You just shook your head as Betty was speaking. Singing? Sure it was fun to do when the only audience you had to worry about was your shower curtain. But singing on stage with over 100 pairs of eyes on you was too far a stretch for your liking.
“I’m sorry guys, but I just wouldn’t do the story justice,” you sighed. “Plus, I’m afraid you’d get a whole lot of stage fright when I’m in that spotlight. You wouldn’t want that Kevin, now would you?”
“Don’t you think we all feel a bit nervous about performing to half of Riverdale?” Archie added plainly.
“Says you Archie! At least you and V have performed on a stage before, on several occasions might I add,” you exclaimed, frustrated that no-one really seemed to understand what you were feeling. Although you did glance your eyes over to Jughead and he seemed just as uncomfortable at the conversation as you.
“Enough!” Kevin cut in, “As much as I love you Y/N, I need to have the very best and most professional actors that I can to make ‘Carrie’ iconic again!”
“Great!” you breathed, “Problem sorted then.”
You heard Jughead give a small breath of laughter, only just audible enough for you to hear.
“But just hold on one moment, Y/N. You and Jughead can’t just not be involved with my impending masterpiece, even if you aren’t confident enough to share your musical gift… or lack thereof,” Kevin said, looking Jughead’s way, causing Jughead to just roll his eyes.
Kevin continued, “So it’s settled. You will both be assigned to documenting every behind-the-scenes action and music practice session, in order to keep this feeling alive forever!” Kevin looked like he was in a state of total euphoria, before quickly grabbing his books, that laid on the bench you were all seated at, and walking away.
You and the core four all looked around at one another, knowing that the next few weeks were going to be crazy.
It was the afternoon of the same day that Kevin had told you the way in which you would still be involved with ‘Carrie’, and the bell had just gone to alert you that is was time to head home and sleep the rest of the day away. You were packing your biology books into your bag, when you saw the glimpse of a beanie-wearing guy sit into the recently-empty seat next to you.
“So Y/N,” Jughead began with a sigh, “I guess we should try and talk about how we are going to manage this thing out. Otherwise I know Kevin will be giving us grief until we actually start filming.”
“Yeah I suppose we should,” you added. You made it sound so casual and laidback for someone whose heart felt like it was going a million miles an hour. Fortunately, you were the only one who knew your true feelings towards Jughead, because if anyone, especially Veronica, found out, you knew that they would bug you until you made a move. You weren’t ready to tell anyone. Not yet.
“How about we get out of this dingy prison they have so lovingly nicknamed ‘school’, and head to Pop’s to talk more?” you suggested, which got a laugh out of Jughead. He nodded, quickly hopping up from his seat, and gesturing for you to link your arm with his. You knew that he was just being Jughead, but you couldn’t help your cheeks turn a light shade of red. You accepted the offer and wandered out the classroom and onward to Pop’s Diner.
It was a week after you met up with Juggie at Pop’s to discuss how you would negotiate sharing the role of documenting the entire process of creating ‘Carrie’. It was such a special afternoon, just you two alone, eating your go-to burgers and talking until the sun began to slip behind the treeline.
Rehearsals began this afternoon, after school, and you agreed to meet Jughead outside the school auditorium a few minutes before rehearsal was scheduled to start.
You were there way too early, that you waited a good 10 minutes before he turned up.
“Hey Y/N, have you been waiting here long?” he asked, before you shook your head.
The pair of you made your way inside the auditorium, taking a seat in the general audience seats. Jughead began to pull out two cameras from his bag, setting them down on the seat in between the both of you.
“Alright, so like we agreed, I’ll video,” he muttered as he continued to grab other cords and tidbits from his bag, “And you shall photograph what should be a ‘life-changing musical.’” He spoke in imitation of Kevin’s often over-the-top enthusiasm.
You gave a small laugh at the Southside Serpent, and picked up a camera, before quickly taking a photo of Jughead.
“Hey! Aren’t you supposed to be taking photos of anyone but me?” Jughead asked, confusion and laughter in his tone.
“That’s where you’re wrong, Jughead Jones,” you responded, smiling as you brought the camera back up to your eyes and took another candid shot of him. When you viewed the photo you had just taken, you couldn’t help but feel your heart melt.
The next week felt like it went by extremely quickly, with rehearsals every day after school, and both days of the weekend. Even though you weren’t singing or dancing or doing any acting, taking photos of everyone that was performing made you feel exhausted just trying to keep up with them.
But while it was a tiring week, it was always worth it. You wish you could say it was because you were helping out one of your closest friends, Kevin, to document his artistry. But then you would be lying.
Spending every day and so many moments with Jughead was what made everything worth it. You had so many opportunities to chat and laugh, and even if you didn’t want to admit it, enjoy the musical performances together.
Although you were both on documenting protocol, they were often times that you weren’t with one another, as you may have been up on stage getting up-close footage of Cheryl as Carrie White, or the intimate love songs that Archie and Betty would sing to one another. In fact, you even captured a hilarious photograph of Veronica’s face of jealousy and pettiness when the pair were singing. Oh goodness, that girl was such a classic.
You actually hadn’t seen any of the footage that Jughead had taken during the week, as he insisted it was no good, and needed to be edited together in an interesting montage style video before being viewed by anyone.
It was nearing the end of the 9th day of rehearsals, and both you and Jughead were doing your own thing, capturing photos and video of the cast singing the finale song, until Kevin called cut to finish the scene.
“Thank you for all of your hard work everyone, I will see you tomorrow same time, same place!” Kevin yelled out to the cast on stage, and motioned for everyone to move out of the auditorium, before shouting again, “Jughead and Y/N! Can you please meet me over by the stage please?”
Jughead was already side of stage, so he slowly wandered out and sat on the edge of the stage, legs dangling down and lay his camera beside him. You walked quickly from the back of the auditorium to the stage, and stood beside Kevin, who was in front of Jughead.
“Alright guys,” Kevin began, “I thought since we are about half way through rehearsals now, I was wondering if I could see what you guys have documented so far! Then I can know if we need any more snaps of anything else.”
“Sure!” you said excitedly, knowing full well you were actually super proud of the photos you had taken, and knew that Kev would be excited to see them as well. But as you said that, Jughead quickly stood up.
“Actually sorry Kevin,” Jughead started to explain, “I actually would prefer it if you saw the end product of the video. It’s just that I don’t really think that it looks…”
Jughead was quickly interrupted by Kevin snatching away the camera from the stage, from where Jughead had left it, and began to turn it on.
“I’m sorry Jughead, but I will feel much better about the end product if I know what the footage is like,” Kevin explained.
Kevin pressed play on one of the videos taken a few days earlier, and Jughead jumped from the stage trying to stop him, but you quickly pushed him away, trying to see the video for yourself.
The video began showing Veronica starting her solo song, and began to pan to the backup dancers who were clicking to the beat. So far it was looking really great, and you saw Kev smile at the sight of his masterpiece.
The footage continued to go between Veronica and the backup dancers for a little while, before it began to pan around to the rows of seats where the audience would sit. Where you were sitting. The video began to zoom in closer and closer, till it was just you in the frame. You saw yourself snapping a few photos with the flash going off. Each time you took a photo, you saw yourself look down at your camera and smile at the photo you had just taken. It felt like you were being filmed for what felt like over a minute before the video finally ended.
Why would he film you? Was it just part of the documenting process? Maybe it was just that one video.
You looked over at Jughead for a response, and he was just sitting back on the stage, head in his hands. Kev looked slightly confused, but moved across to the next video and hit play.
This time the video started pointing at the ground for a few seconds, before it slowly turned upward towards side stage. It zoomed closer and closer to the person standing in the wings, with her camera flashing towards Archie and Betty who were singing their duet. And that person was you, again. You felt your heart pick up several paces faster and your mouth fall slightly ajar, as you watched the camera continue to focus on you. Even as you moved out of the wings and onto the main stage, the video continued to follow your every move, never once changing focus.
Kevin paused the video, looked at you briefly and then scrunched his forehead at Jughead, who was still looking towards the ground.
“Uh… Jughead…” Kevin stammered, “What’s going on?”
Jughead raised his head, and you saw a pain in his eyes, as he looked earnestly at Kevin to drop the subject. Kevin took a few moments to register the hint, and he walked over to Jughead and placed the camera beside him once again.
“I’m just going to head off,” Kev said awkwardly, before she shuffled quickly out of the auditorium.
You stood in silence, looking at Jughead for answers. He looked towards you and prepared himself to say something, but nothing came out.
You had a million thoughts running through your brain in those moments of silence. Why would he film you? Did he think you were a suspect in the Black Hood case? Was he trying to catch you in a moment of embarrassment? But you still had no clue whatsoever.
“Y/N,” Jughead finally said, interrupting your thoughts, “You were never meant to see them.”
You furrowed your brow, and exclaimed, “Well, why would you film me in the first place? Is this apart of some crazy scheme to humiliate me or something?” You felt a sense of anger in your tone.
“No, god no!” Jughead responded, shaking his head as he hopped off the stage and took a step towards you, “It’s just that…” He trailed off, stuck in his words.
“That what, Jug?” you asked softly.
“You fascinate me, Y/N. You light up any room you walk into, and I just wanted to see you over and over, even when we weren’t together,” he said, and then quickly spat out, “But not like in a creepy way! Sorry if it came out really creepy and stalkerish, because it’s not like that at all.”
You let out a small laugh, and you began to feel your eyes prick with happy tears. “No! It didn’t sound like that at all.”
Taking a step closer to Jughead, you began to feel your heart in your throat, begging to be released. You took a deep breath, before beginning to talk.
“Jug, I haven’t been able to tell you this, because I’ve felt so certain that it would end in rejection. But, you are just always on my mind, and I feel so warm and safe with you, and I just couldn’t imagine my life without you and I…”
Your sentence was interrupted by the feeling of a pair of lips pressing against your own. Jughead slowly pulled his lips away from yours, but still kept his head close.
“You are so beautiful, Y/N,” he whispered, and you couldn’t help but beam from ear to ear, “And for the record, all those things you said about me, I feel the same for you.”
You didn’t hesitate to return the kiss that he had given you a few moments earlier. It lasted many moments longer than before, and you could feel Jughead begin to smile during the kiss. You didn’t want this moment to end. It was everything you could have asked for, and more.
Finally, you began to lift your lips from his, and you stood up straight again, turning your gaze to the camera that still laid on the stage.
“You know,” you began, “We’re going to have to spend a lot more time actually filming the musical, otherwise at the end of all of this, Kevin will be in complete outrage.”
He gave a laugh, and nodded. “Yeah, I kind of dropped the ball on that one there. But since I won’t be seeing you through the lens of the camera as much anymore, maybe we could debrief after each rehearsal, you know, for the sake of the musical.”
You gave a small laugh at Jughead, whose demeanour seem lighter than usual now, and nodded along, “Mhmm, sure. I guess if it’s for the sake of the musical, then we must.”
Jughead walked over to the stage, grabbed his camera and walked to where his bag was laying, before slinging it over his shoulder. He then reached out his hand towards you, with a gleam of joy in his eyes. You gladly grabbed onto it, and slowly made your way out of the auditorium.
You didn’t really know where you were going to end up, but you figured it was likely it would be a booth at Pop’s.You both had a lot to discuss… oh, about the musical of course…

“C’mon...son of a...” Betty grunted as she twisted the bolt into place. Often times, when faced with a dilemma, the blonde found herself tinkering with her Grandfather’s 1941 Ford F1 pickup blaring her favorite playlist consisting of the Beastie Boys, the Ramones, Bruce Springsteen and other greats. 
But not today, no, today she was just spending her day off in the garage of her rented town-home. Nope, she wasn’t bothered by anything this breezy November afternoon. Certainly not by some boy...guy. Man. Person-thing! 
Betty frowned as she mounted the clutch plate. Who did Jughead Jones think he was, turning her away like she was a high school freshman asking a senior to the prom? Sure he’s the leader of a notorious biker gang and yes, he had a reputation of being a philanderer, but did that mean they couldn’t be friends? 
In all honesty, Betty didn’t know why she was so upset. Apart from the previous night, she’d scarcely spoken two paragraphs to the man. It was just as well, she thought. There was no room in her life for a Shakespeare reading, high and mighty, narcissistic prick fluent in sarcasm. Traveling contracts only lasted 13 weeks after all, and only eleven were left to go (With the eager offer from hospital administration to stay permanently), there wasn’t a point in making...friends. 
With the garage stereo blaring The Rolling Stones, the off-duty nurse practitioner spent the next several hours crancking and wrenching and slotting under the hood of her Pa’s old truck. 
By the time she realized it, 8:30 p.m. had rolled around. Deciding to call it a night, Betty pack up her tools and spare parts, then headed directly to the shower in hopes of getting at least some of the grease off her skin. In a fortunate turn of events, her best friend Kevin Keller was in town visiting his dad (The Sherrif) and they’d made plans for dinner at Pop’s before she dropped him off at the airport about an hour away for his return flight to Chicago. 
She’d always worn scrubs to the bar, but tonight Betty Cooper was going to make Jughead Jones eat his heart out...subtly, of course. Donning her favorite pair of skinny jeans, a form fitting white t-shirt under her favorite flannel and heeled ankle boots, she looked especially good. After blow drying her hair and applying the slightest amount of make-up, she grabbed her keys and her khaki flack jacket and headed for her favorite booth at Pop’s. 
“I still haven’t forgiven you for leaving Chicago.” Kevin stated, his blue-green eyes narrowed playfully and Betty couldn’t stop her smile. “We had so much fun! Why did you ruin it to come back home, of all places? You and I both know how much it sucks coming back here. I mean, really Betts. You were like a kid in a candy shop working at that trauma center. Makes no sense.”
“Riverdale Hospital needed the help.” She said. “Plus it’s been a while since I’ve seen the twins and Polly. Lord knows my mother cannot be trusted to offer any help without providing her unsolicited opinions.”
Kevin shared her shudder. “Okay, fair point. So where will you go next? Please say New York? I’m staying with Veronica and Archie while I’m there for the Hamilton tour production meetings.”
“Maybe, we’ll see.” Betty winked. “I’m really enjoying the hospital here, actually. I’ve got so much more freedom at a non-for-profit hospital versus the university hospitals. Doctors are more laid back, the staff is friendlier, the hours are better. I’ve got to say, it’s rather tempting.”
“Yes, but you’d also inadvertently become a social pariah with no hope of finding a man anywhere near your level. All that’s left here are closeted husbands and construction workers. Unless there’s a hot MD that’s caught your eye?”
“Well, I am a Doctor of Nursing Practice, so I guess I that makes me the hot doctor.”
Kevin smirked, raising his red velvet milkshake in a toast. “Long may you reign, Doctor Nurse Betty.”
At 10:30 p.m. she dropped Kevin off at the airport with the promise of weekly FaceTime’s and a hug she wanted to sink into forever. By the time she got back to Riverdale from the airport, it was midnight. Parking in the same spot she was instructed to each time, three blocks away from the Whyte Wyrm, Betty spied a familiar Serpent waiting on his bike. 
“Hey Betty.” Joaquin smiled, handing her the extra helmet.”Looking good.”
“Thanks!” Smiling, she slung her medical bag across her shoulders and climbed onto the bike, wrapping her arms tightly around Joaquin’s waist. The trip lasted all of two minutes, but Betty still loved the thrill of the ride. Maybe she’d look into learning to ride herself. Oh, to see the look on her mother’s face!
Once the pair dismounted, they entered the bar. 
“Hey, Betty!”
“Aye, Coop!”
A wolf whistle sounded. “Looking good there, Nurse Betty!”
The blonde smiled and waved at the Serpents who greeted her, it was a full house tonight; Betty had to turn sideways to get through all the bodies as she tried to follow close behind Joaquin. 
Suddenly, a loud raucous stirred at the pool tables and several people were pushing around to get a view (or get in on the fighting). Before she even had the chance to get through, Betty was unceremoniously knocked off her feet, a yelp of surprise escaped her lips.  
But impact never came; she’d fallen into a pair of warm arms, lean and muscular, the left covered in a giant snake tattoo sleeve. He smelled of cologne and tobacco and oak. 
“Alright there, Betts?” Her savior’s voice rumbled in her ears. 
Of course it was Jughead, because her life was just one big soap opera of predictability. 
“I’m good.” Thankful her voice wasn’t shaking. “You can ah, let me go now. I’m okay.”
Betty had not meant to look into is dark blue eyes, at some point she has turned in his arms, her hands on his chest. Jughead’s arms wrapped around her waist. 
The...embrace, for lack of a better word, had lasted mere seconds, but felt like an eternity. It was almost as if they were the only two in the room and a bar fight had not just erupted around them. 
The sound of shattering glass broke their reverie. Betty watched as Jughead’s expression went from pensive to peeved in an instant. 
“I need to take care of this, go upstairs. I’ll meet you there.” He instructed in a clipped tone. The blonde felt uneasy, as if she were the reason he was angry when his grip around her tightened at the rising volume..
“Jug, truly, I’m alright.” 
His resolve didn’t seem to waiver. “Go on. I’ll be up in a minute.” 
Not wanting to poke the beast, Betty excised herself from his hold and went straight to the stairs. Joaquin had waited at he last step, watching her with eager curiosity. Betty knew that look, it was the same Kevin had when she’d spoken to any mildly attractive male. 
“So, you and Jug?” He asked conspiratorially as they made their way up the stairs to Alex’s room.  
“Jughead and I what?” She feigned ignorance. 
“Oh don’t play coy, you could cut the sexual tension with a knife.”
Betty gaped at Joaquin, who in turn looked extremely amused. 
“You could do a lot worse, you know. He’s rough around the edges, but Jug’s a good guy.” 
“Touching as your efforts are to get your friend into my panties, I should inform you that Jughead doesn’t wish, in fact he expressly said that he wanted only to have a professional relationship with me.”
“Did he really say that?”
“Mmmhmm, said he was a good judge of character and that a friendship between us would not be in my best interest.”
“Well if that’s the case, you should seriously consider suing for unwarranted sexual advances in the work place because baby, he looked at you like you were the only girl in the room.” Joaquin said.
Betty frowned as they reached Alex’s door. “I want a new chaperone.”
Joaquin merely grinned and took up his usual position of standing guard outside of the room. 
Alex was asleep, no doubt due to painkillers. Completely absorbed in her task (an involuntary switch went off in her head, changing her state of mind she fondly referred to as Nurse Mode), Betty had failed to notice Jughead had entered the room, seating himself in the chair beside the door watching her every move. It wasn’t until she looked up after finishing the dressing change and throwing away the used supplies that she noticed him looking at her. 
Looking at her like she was the light on and he was coming home. Butterflies erupted in her stomach, her palms going clammy despite the draftiness of the apartment. 
“Done?” He asked tonelessly. 
Betty nodded, not trusting her voice. They ambled quietly down the narrow stairs, she was acutely aware of how close they were. When they reached the bottom stair, Betty found it to be quieter than before. The music turned down to a bearable octave, Serpents and patrons alike chatting quietly and sharing low rumbles of laughter. 
“See ya, Nurse Betty.” Sweet Pea winked from his spot at the poker table, earning a smack upside the head from Tall Boy. “Ow! Hey!”
“Mind yer Manners.” The older, wiser Serpent snapped. “Later, Betty.”
“BYE BETTY!” The bar choursed. The blonde blushed, waving sweetly with a happy smile before Jughead opened the door and lead her out. 
“Seems you’re popular around here.” Jughead chided, but Betty wasn’t in the mood for teasing, not from him. 
“They’re good people.” She smiled benignly. 
The pair were quiet for the first block, but Betty could tell Jughead was uneasy. Every ten paces or so she would notice his eyes flit to her then back forward. 
Hello awkwardness my old friend, Betty mused. Good. She hoped he felt weird after rejecting her friendship 25 hours and 32 minutes ago. Not that she was counting, or anything. 
“You look nice tonight.”
The blonde was sure that she’d given herself whiplash. Had Jughead Jones just...complimented her?
“Er, thank-you. I met a friend for dinner before coming here.” As if she’d get gussied up to see Kevin, her best friend was luck if Betty was out of her pajamas before they hung out.
“Oh? One of the four?” He was teasing her again.
Well, two could play at that game. Unable to control it, a light laugh escaped her lips. “Yes, he made the cut.”
The nurse didn’t miss the way he tensed at the use of the male pronoun. 
“And?” He probed. 
“And...what?” 
“Did the evening go well?” He asked evenly. Was he annoyed, angry or hurt? Betty gave up trying to decipher Jughead’s moods. 
“Yeah, of course. We went to Pop’s just like old times.”
“So he’s from RIverdale?”
She nodded. “I’ve known Kevin Keller my whole life, we lived together while I was working at that trauma center in Chicago. He’s an ensemble director.”
“Keller? As in Sherrif Keller’s kid?” The Serpent King asked as they reached the second block. 
“Yes, his only son. I take it you’ve met the good Sherrif?” Betty smirked playfully.
Jughead matched her smirk. “On occasion.”
It was no secret the Sherrif’s boy was gay, everyone knew it. She watched his body language relax, no longer throwing out a line of questioning. They were quiet again for the rest of the second block, it was less ominously suffocating than the last silence. 
“I never thanked you.” Dark blue eyes gazing at her intently. “For what you’ve done for Alex, for protecting the Serpents.”
“I’m happy to help.” 
“Still, I know you’re risking a lot.” He continued. “We...I, appreciate it.”
“Anyone else would’ve have done the same.”
“No, they wouldn’t have.” Jughead said with a hint of admiration. “If there is ever anything you need, Serpents pay their debts.”
Betty let out a humorless laugh, they were well into the third block. 
“Why can’t you accept that I don’t want anything from you? All I ever wanted from you was your friendship but I guess helping Alex and protecting your anonymity doesn’t warrant such benevolent from the Serpent King.”
They’d reached her car, Betty unlocked the trunk and threw her bag inside, slamming it shut. How did he always manage to piss her off? God, he was infuriating!
“Betty-” Jughead grabbed her arm gently. 
“No! You don’t get to decide things for me, Jughead! I’m capable of making my own choices, I get to choose who I share my time with-”
“I know, I-”
“And for you to just shut me down after-”
“Betts!” He said sternly, they were close now, his face only inches from hers. 
But the blonde found no trace of anger in his eyes, in fact all she saw was a tenderness, an amused smile played his lips. Jughead reached a hand to cup her face, running his hand across her cheek. 
“Yes...Jug?” She whispered breathlessly. 
“Can I kiss you?” He asked softly. 
“Friend’s don’t kiss.” She replied, heady with the intimacy of his gaze. 
“Then it’s a good thing we’re not friends.” He said before leaning in and pressing a long, tender kiss on her lips. Betty sank into his arms, running her hands up his chest and into his dark curly hair, twisting it gently around her fingers. He pressed her closer, deepening the kiss and a soft mewl escaped her lips. Jughead moved his hands to her thighs and suddenly picked her up, Betty let out a gasp of surprise as he placed her on top of the trunk and stepped between her legs, reconnecting their lips. 
They kissed till they were out of breath, Jughead nuzzled her neck inhaling her scent. Betty kissed his soft hair, running her hands up and down his arms. 
“Betty?” He whispered. 
“Jug?”
“Do you work tomorrow night?”
She shook her head in the negative. 
“Then I’ll pick you up from your place at 7:00.”
Betty bit back a smile as she gazed into his dark blue eyes. “Jughead Jones, are you asking me on a date?”
“Like you said,” He replied salaciously. “Friends don’t kiss.”

A Timeless Christmas
Original Air Date: November 15, 2020 (Hallmark) Where to Watch?: Hallmark will replay it multiple times this season, and for every season in perpetuity
Tumblr media
If you don't know who director Ron Oliver is, you're missing out on one of Hallmark's most delightful stars. Sure, he's behind the camera, not in front of it, and I guess people like that Ryan Paevey guy, who also made Christmas at the Plaza with Oliver last season, but, seriously, Oliver is a treasure, and I hope Hallmark knows that. From the movie-spanning mythology that is "Kenny Kwon," to just being the gosh darn best, Ron Oliver elevates every project he touches, including A Timeless Christmas, based on the (Hallmark) book by Alexis Stanton. 
Sorry, every-other-Christmas-movie, your director is definitely not this awesome.
Tumblr media
Paevey plays Charles Whitley, an early 1900s inventor, who buys his fiancee a Christmas clock, then after repairing and winding it on Christmas Eve, wakes up to find strangers in his house, now a museum, filming him with iPhones.
Despite how jarring all this would be, Paevey's Charles seems pretty non-plussed at all the future tech, laughing at a joke about Internet cat pictures, and figuring out what a cell phone does in seconds flat, despite also being scandalized anyone would wear "dungarees" on a public street.
Erin Cahill's museum docent/Charles Whitley-maid cosplayer also is pretty quick to accept the whole, he's-a-time-traveler bit. Though not quickly enough for Paevey, who asks her at about minute 10 of the movie, “You still don't believe me, do you?” I mean, dude, you just popped into the present about 20 minutes ago, maybe give her a night to sleep on it?
The way Charles convinces Cahill's character, who did her dissertation on Whitley, he's the real guy, is via a secret scar on his hand, and a much less secret space beneath the floorboards where Charles hid a journal in 1903. I mean, seriously, no one has moved that (brand-new looking) rug in over a hundred years? Because that cut out is super obvious. Either Kenny is the worst museum director ever, or a whole slew of Charles Whitley Mansion cleaning staff need to be let go immediately.
Tumblr media
Cahill's character repeatedly tells Charles how much the world has changed…All while they proceed to fall in love in a way that would have seemed chaste even for 1903, like decorating a Christmas tree at her parent's house, and going Christmas shopping. Oh, Hallmark, you can even make a time travel romance seem rote.
Then Cahill finally drops the big, incredibly obvious reveal that Charles' 1903 fiancee, Eliza, married his big bad business rival (scandal!) and Charles has to go for a walk in Evergreen (holy shared universe, Batman), a.k.a. Deer Lake Park in Burnaby, B.C., to recover. And, like, seriously, does Hallmark own this place now, because this is at least the third 2020 Hallmark holiday movie it makes an appearance in. Hope they just left the lights up between all the filming.
Tumblr media
There, a magical Christmas tree decorator then explains to Charles that, no, his rival was a great guy, actually, even though he stole Charles' mill method (this is never elaborated upon), and he and Eliza lived happily ever after which…OK? Not sure why knowing his wife-to-be moved on with someone he hated would make Charles feel better, but now he doesn't have to feel guilty about falling in love with Cahill, I guess. 
Then Charles walks all the way from Evergreen to Riverdale, to have a bite to eat at Pop's Diner, and re-state the already very exposition-y lesson we'd just learned. That it took Charles longer to grasp the idea of "everyone deserves to be happy" than the concept of time travel is…something. For a genius inventor, Charles is pretty slow on the uptake. 
The whole thing hinges on this missing Christmas clock we see Charles buy at the beginning of the movie and Cahill, whose great-grandmother was Charles' maid Rosie, takes about a decade to discover it in a prominent, free-standing, clear glass case at the university we are supposed to think she's been attending for years or, at the very least, going through a lengthy academia application process at. There's basically a flashing neon sign that says "Christmas clock this way" and Cahill still takes minutes to walk by it, sit in front of it, gaze at it and then, finally, the realization dawns. Beginning to think her potential students dodged a real bullet by her not taking the teaching gig.
Then, instead of wacky clock theft hijinks I was hoping for, Cahill just asks a secretary if she can take it, and the lady says, sure, apparently, because next thing you know it's back in the museum for Christmas Eve and she thinks Charles poofed back to 1903 without a word, except, like, wouldn't the museum cease to exist if he had done that? I mean, if Charles Whitley doesn't disappear mysteriously in 1903, then the house never goes to the town to becomes a museum, and Cahill and all the partygoers would just suddenly be smack dab in the middle of some Whitley descendant’s living room, or a vacant lot, or something. And wouldn’t Cahill’s knowledge of Whitley have changed in her head, if he’d gone back to 1903? Or would she have studied him at all without the mystery? Oof, the more I think about it, the more this movie makes my brain itchy.
But, no, Charles just decides to stay in this unnamed year—everyone is very careful not to mention it's 2020, even when Charles explicitly asks what year it is, very early on—in his perfectly preserved 100-year-old tuxedo. No social security number. No ID. No job or educational history. No money. So they can't get married, he can't get a job or a bank account, or ever travel, and he'll probably be deported by ICE, and the museum shut down for paying its performers in cash under the table, but…Yay, happy ending, I guess? 
This is why, if you’re ever personally involved in a time travel romance, where one of you has to pick an era to live in forever, my advice is always to go back in time, where it’s easier to just blend in without documentation, rather than the future or our present, where everything is computerized. Just be careful not to be too prescient or savvy about things like antibiotics and natural disasters, or they’ll burn you as a witch. (Thanks for coming to my TED talk!)
Tumblr media
Actually, in writing this, I think I might have enjoyed this movie less than I thought I did while actually watching it, but did love Nelson Wong, a.k.a. Kenny Kwon, getting the movie's last (sort of) laugh with his, "He's a pretty good Charles Whitley isn't he? You know, I'm the one who found him, right?" As always, Wong’s appearance makes any Oliver joint 47.8% better, and you can’t argue with math.
Final Judgement: 2 Paws Up
