#cheryl and betty really are cousins

[thisischaostragic]

bughead was so unhinged and so in love and so dramatic and i'm so sad that my favorite chaos goblins didn't get to be bonkers together for s6. i love s6. it's campy and supernatural and ridiculous and so much fun. they would've been so good there. like imagine how feral betty would've gone if she wasn't able to get into heaven but she was still dating jughead. she would've shot god.

#bughead #riverdale s6 #riverdale #anti barchie #i am actually surprised how many bughead fans dislike s5-7 #like i get it #but riverdale s6 has the same energy as bughead #i can't explain why #but it does #choni and bughead exist on the same chaos plane #cheryl and betty really are cousins

Of Course, We Love You

Summary: you are abused by your parents but never told your partners afraid they would agree with what your parents would tell you and leave you. One day Betty notices a bruise on her neck and tells the others.

A/N: I’m sorry if I’m writing so many ‘dark’ ones. they are the ones I’m used to and read the most so it’s easier.

Warnings: Physical and mental abuse, Alcohol abuse, and intersex girl? (Is that a warning?)

“YOU WORTHLESS PIECE OF SHIT! *Throws glass vase at the wall beside you* GO TO YOUR ROOM!” After your mom was done with you, you struggled to get up and make it to your room. your parents have been abusing you ever since they found out you were intersex. They thought you were a freak but luckily you could find people who accept you for what you are. Those people are now your partners Betty, Veronica, Archie, and Jughead. They had always been there through thick and thin. Despite their unconditional love, you are still scared that they might leave you if they found out what your parents think about you. They could realize your parents are right and leave like everyone in your past did. That’s why you haven’t told them about the abuse, so they wouldn’t leave you.

You were on a date with your partners at pops and having a great time. Archie was on your left and Betty on your right with Jughead in front of Archie and Veronica beside him. you leaned your head on Archie and closed your eyes since you were still tired from last night and ended up falling asleep.

Jughead was holding Archie’s hand from across the table when Betty noticed something on the bottom of your neck going to the top of your shoulder. “Hey, guys.” She whispered to the rest of the group. “Yeah B?” “Do you guys see this big bruise on Y/N’s neck?” The others carefully looked over at your neck and saw the bruise. “Yeah, where do you think she got that from?” Jughead said as he adjusted his beanie. “I don’t know maybe we can as her tomorrow?” “Yeah, we should let her sleep for now,” Archie commented after he put his arm around you. 

The next day at school you were wearing a turtleneck and blue jeans even though it’s summer, (you got home a little late last night). you felt arms wrap around your waist and instantly knew it was Veronica because she was more affectionate. “Hey Baby.” you rasped out softly. “Whoa, are you okay honey? Your throat sounds sore.” “I’m fine, V.” You felt really bad about lying to her after seeing how worried she got but you just couldn’t tell the truth. “A-are you sure?” “Yes, I’m sure.” “Okay well, the rest of our partners are waiting for us in the music room.” “Why the music room?” “For some...privacy.” She smiled and you smiled back. 

YOUR POV (BECAUSE I’M TIRED OF WRITING IN 3RD PERSON)

V and I got to the Music room after the other three were already there. the four of them look pretty nervous once they’re standing in front of me. “What going on?” Betty shifted on her feet. “Well, we wanted to ask you about yesterday’s bruise on your neck.” I quickly brought my hand to my neck and tried to think of an excuse. “A book fell on me at the library.” I thought it was a dumb excuse, but I think they brought it up, or at least Veronica did because she came up to hug me. “Why didn’t you tell us? You know how worried we get.” “I’m sorry, it slipped my mind.” After that, the bell rang, and we hugged before going our separate ways.

In the afternoon I was helping hang up some posters for prom in two months. “Uh, (y/n/n) are you okay?” “What do you mean Cheryl?” “When you were raising that sign, I saw a huge bruise on your side.” I started to in my head. People have never seen bruises before. “Oh, I just bumped into the door. you know how clumsy I can be.” I tried to laugh it off but it kind of hurt. Cheryl just nodded her head. “Ok well, I’m going to the bathroom.” “Bye, Cher!”

CHERYL’S POV

I lied. I wasn’t going to the bathroom; I was going to the blue and gold to tell Cousin Betty what I saw. Once I got in there, I saw that it was only me and Betty in the room. “Cousin Betty, I have to tell you something.” Betty didn’t even look up from her computer. “What is it?” “It’s about y/n.” She stopped what she was doing, stood up quickly, and started walking toward me. “What about y/n?” “When we were hanging up the posters for prom, I saw a huge bruise on her side.” Betty started to look really worried. “Ok, thank you for telling me.” “Do you think she’s okay?” I asked. Betty looked at me sadly and said, “Honestly Cheryl, I don’t know.”

BETTY’S POV

After what Cheryl told me I rushed to the lunchroom where my other partners were. “Guys, Cheryl just told me that she saw another bruise on y/n’s side while they were hanging up some prom posters.” “What? Another one? What is happening to her?” Jug said after putting down his burger. “I don’t know, but we got to find out what’s going on,” Archie elaborated. “I knew that excuse was bogus. I mean how could a book even leave that big of a bruise?” I started to pace back and forth and rub my hands on my pants. “Well, we got to find her first.” As if on cue, Y/n walked up to our lunch table, “Hey guys, what’s up. Whoa, Bets are you okay? Why are you pacing?” “No, I’m not okay and neither are you.” V got up and stood behind me, “Maybe we should talk about this in private.” “Talk about what?” Y/n asked. The boys got up too (Not without Jughead taking another bite of his burger) and we started walking to the music room with Y/n right behind us. 

After we made it to the music room Y/n spoke, “I still don’t know what this is about.” Ronnie sighed, “Why did you lie to us?” “Lie to you about what?” “Your bruises Y/n!” Juggie shouted. “Your excuse this morning was a flat-out lie. Cheryl told Betty about the bruise she saw on your side. And don’t even try to say some dumb explanation, we all know that you don’t have a single clumsy bone in your body!” Y/n slightly flinched and took a step back. “What was that?” I asked. She looked away from us and sat down in one of the chairs closest to her. The room was silent for a bit unit y/n finally said something, “If I tell you, will you promise me that yell anymore?” “Y-yeah,” Jughead spoke, “I’m sorry.” Y/n sighed, and some tears came out of her eyes. “It’s my parents okay.” We all sat down around her and just let her talk. “They’ve been abusing me ever since they found out I was intersex when I was one. When the ‘friends’ I had in the past found out they just left me alone. some even started to bully me after I told them. That’s why I never told you guys. I Just can’t-” She was full on sobbing at this point and so were we. We all had a group hug and sat there for a while. “I can’t lose you guys,” she whispered. “You would never lose us,” me, Archie, Juggie, and Ronnie all said at the same time and then we all laughed. We slowly let go of our hug. “We love you Y/n.” “I love you guys too.”

So I watched The Beguiled...

As a professional Blossom Scholar, I took it upon myself to view The Beguiled. Cheryl references it in Season 2 prior to her sleepover with the inner circle Vixens and cousin Betty. (Season 2. Episode 16 - Chapter Twenty-Nine: Primary Colors)

Mad ramblings under the cut. <3

Judging by their faces, I'm going to say that they probably have NOT seen this film. Or, if they have, they do not have the appropriate dressing gowns to evoke its image.

Now, I debated whether or not to watch the original 1971 version starring Clint Eastwood or the 2017 version starring Nicole Kidman and directed by Sofia Coppola.

Which version, I wondered, would Cheryl be referring to? Likely the latter, I concluded. After all, I can totally see Cheryl being into Marie Antionette and probably the Virgin Suicides. (I could write a whole post on Cheryl and her possible feelings about the Virgin Suicides, but let's move on.) Not to mention there's something just a little pretentious about being into Sofia Coppola, but I digress.

The point is that Cheryl being Sofia Coppola fan seems likely.

Thus, I watched the 2017 version first.

Now, let's break down the plot of The Beguiled as quickly as possible.

Basically, it's the Civil War and Martha Farnsworth has a small school for girls in the South amidst the fighting. Amy, one of the girls, finds a union solider while hunting for mushrooms. She brings him back to the house and they decide to nurse him back to health. (Oh boy.)

And thus begins a slow and torturous unraveling of the relative peace these women have enjoyed. Each of them vie for the soldier's affections until he tries to make a pass at Alicia, one of the students at the school. Distraught because the soldier had previously declared his love for her (and also Alicia is 17), Edwina fights him off. He falls down the stairs and worsens his leg. (Oh dear.)

Martha decides to amputate because the wound is too severe for her to fix. However, when the soldier wakes up, he is convinced they took his leg in revenge and he becomes violent. Thus, the women of the house (minus Edwina who was too busy courting the soldier despite everything) decide to poison him with mushrooms. They do. He dies. (Oh boy!)

I'm not gonna pick apart this movie, but I will say that that the inconsistency in their dialect work was genuinely distracting. Anyway.

So, why are we talking about this?

Well, there are a couple of interesting details about this movie that do, indeed, apply to Cheryl's sleepover. Namely a poisoning and someone falling down the stairs. Obviously Nana Rose is not a wounded soldier making a pass at one of the girls, but one of the topics that Cheryl & Co. discuss is the matter of Uncle Claudius. Now, Cheryl is convinced that he is out to kill her, and he probably is, but he does try to break into her room a few nights prior, so, there's a creepy parallel for you. Not only that, but he is a solider who mysteriously arrives to the estate and thus, causes problems.

Additionally, when reviewing the 1971 version of the film, we get the additional detail of Martha Farnsworth having an incestuous relationship with her brother so. There's also that. (This show cannot go too long without a nod to the Blossoms and incest. It's like they have a quota.)

I find it fascinating that Cheryl references this film and then her sleepover has echoes of it within. There really is something to be said about how fiction and reference bleed into reality with Riverdale all the time. Even in the smallest throwaway lines.

Additionally, I think this may have been Cheryl attempting to relate to her peers. Per the screenshot above, she failed.

My poor gothic heroine.

Also, shout-out to Cheryl dissociating in the midst of the hair brushing train. (Is this one of the parlor games she mentioned?)

ALSO. This scene features one of my all time favorite Cheryl lines:

"There's a stranger in this house. My Uncle Claudius. He's as mad as the sea and ever since he blew in, I feel like I'm in mortal peril."

And finally, we all know Tannis Root is not a real herb, but a reference Rosemary's baby. I will speak on that another day, but APPARENTLY Penelope is cultivating Datura in the greenhouse? Hello????

That needs its own post.

Anyway. These were my findings. Happy trails. <3

Madelaine//unscripted

Request: idk if requests are open but could you do and imagine where the cast is filming a scene and madelaine says as cheryl “How’s your boyfriend” and readers like “I don’t have a boyfriend” and madelaine says “oh I know I was just trying to remind u” and readers like “How’s your brother” and everyone starts bursts out laughing because it wasn’t scripted

hey! this was really fun to write so i hope you like it! and sorry it’s a little short. there’s a tiny hint of romance between reader and madelaine right at the end!

“Oh God.” Betty groans under her breath before her eyes meet Cheryl’s through the mirror. You tear your gaze away from the sink, shutting off the water before finding the source of Betty’s sudden annoyance. 

You roll your eyes when you see the redhead, her gaze already set on you and a smirk pulling on her lips as she looks you up and down. 

Finally Veronica joins in on the staring contest, putting the lipstick back in her bag and turning around. You and Betty share a tired look before following suit and for a few seconds, everything is quiet. 

Veronica looks annoyed as she picks at her newly manicured nails. Betty chews on her lip nervously as she glances between the slightly wet floor and the girl stood in front of you. And you’re just bored, you already know how this interaction is going to go, you just wish you could hurry up and get to it. 

Cheryl will say something rude, in a sickly sweet tone accompanied by a matching smile. And Betty will have to stop either you or Veronica from saying/doing something stupid. 

“Good morning to you too blondie.” Cheryl chirps, she’s far too happy at 7:30am and the tone of her voice causes a dull pain to form in the back of your head. Great, she’s been here for less that 30 seconds and she’s already given you a headache. 

Betty forces a smile at her cousin, a last ditch attempt to not end yet another interaction in a fight. But Cheryl ignores her, and instead of mirroring the clearly fake smile and moving on, her eyes narrow as she tries to figure out how else she can make the three of you miserable. 

“Move.” She barks and barges her way past you and Betty. Betty quickly moves to the side, rubbing her shoulder subtly as she quickly gathers up her things. But you don’t budge, instead you let her shoulder connect with your collarbone and stand your ground. 

“Nah.” You shrug and she pauses. Veronica and Betty share a worried look, they’ve been here before and it ended with you having a bloody nose and Cheryl a black eye that ruined picture day for that years yearbook. And as funny as it was to see Cheryl try and cover the bruise with enough makeup caked on her face to sink a ship, the days that followed were not funny. 

“I’m sorry.” She blinks and turns quickly. “Did you not hear me. I said move.” She continues and pokes a long finger nail into your shoulder. You look down in disgust, a frown pulling onto your lips as you look between her hand and you. 

“Y/n, it’s fine. Just leave it.” Betty says in an attempt to get the three of you out of the bathroom and into class in one piece. 

“Normally I wouldn’t agree with Betty but this really isn’t worth it Y/n.” Veronica adds making you roll your eyes. 

“Actually.” You argue. “I think it is worth it. Because we were here first, and if Cheryl wants something she should learn to ask nicely. She’s not bratty child anymore who can throw a tantrum and get what she wants.” You say, making sure to look at her as you talk and her eyes narrow at your words. 

“I-” She’s about to argue when you hold a hand, effectively shushing her and a small adrenaline rush courses through your veins. 

“So, why don’t you ask nicely and then maybe we’ll move. But really Cheryl, using violence as the answer? No wonder Toni left you. She may be a serpent but even you were too much for her.” 

Shit

Okay, maybe you went a little too far. Even Veronica looks scared for what’s about to happen which does little to help you feel confident. However you refuse to let Cheryl believe that she can just push people around, and yeah it was a little harsh but maybe it’s what she needed. 

Hurt flashes through her eyes as her composure falters for a few seconds. But as quickly as it disappears, her confidence comes back and she stands up straighter, folding her arms over her chest as the signature smirk finds its way back to her lips. 

“Y/n? How’s your boyfriend?” She asks and you frown in confusion. You send a quick glance to Veronica and Betty, both of whom just shrug and look back at the redhead. 

“I don’t have a boyfriend.” You reply and a small giggle leaves her lips. 

“I know, I was just reminding you.” She says making you stiffen and glare at her. 

“Hey Cheryl?” You ask making her hum as she smirks proudly to herself. “How’s your brother?” You say, maintaining eye contact and a surprised laugh escapes her lips. 

“Cut!” Someone behind you shouts. Lili is the second one to break character, laughing loudly and soon she’s joined by the rest of the cast and crew. You try so hard to keep a straight face, but when Mads looks at you, you know you can’t help it anymore and snort a laugh. 

“I’m really sorry.” You say through giggles. “But it was right there. You all would have been more annoyed if I didn’t say it.” 

“Sure they would have.” Cami rolls her eyes at you playfully.  

“Ouch. That was cold Y/n.” Madelaine says, holding a hand over her heart and you shove her gently. “And now violence. Maybe you should be playing Cheryl.” 

“Nobody plays evil bitch better than you babe.” 

“Aw-hey!”

Riverdale (7x17) - A Different Kind of Cat (spoilers)

The only reason why I haven't dropped this show at this point is because there's three episodes after this and I refuse to let Roberto beat me. I'm not really going to give much of a recap here, because there really wasn't much to recap.

And I'm going to be honest, I wish they hadn't brought Josie back. Not because I don't like the character, I do. But I feel that the episode with her and the Pussycats in season 5 was a much better send off.

So, very quick recap. Betty has decided to write a book and she finds out about Cheryl's pictures with Toni. She lets Cheryl know that she The Teenage Mystique and asks Cheryl to ask Toni to take photos her in lingerie for the cover of her book. Cheryl, who please God don't let them be cousins, agrees and says she'll do an oil painting of Betty's favorite photos. Photos are taken and, as Cheryl develops them, Betty admits she's never had sex. Cheryl gives Betty a magazine teaching her about masturbation. And then we have a scene with Betty in the bathtub...this worked better and made more sense in Plesentville.

Archie wants to have sex again. He goes to Twila who, despite being a Lady of the Night, turns him down (which, damn!). He then sets his sights on on Ms. Grundy. Who is very married. He invites her to an open poetry night and then proceeds to read a poem that makes it clear to all that he wants to bone Mrs. Grundy. And...why are you all making me defend Grundy? Why are the writers doing this? Grundy, who clearly wishes she were in a time where it was easier to get a restraining order, suggest to Archie to leave the love poems behind and write about something that hurts him. Like this show hurts us. Archie writes about his dad's death. Fred finds the poem and destroys it. I can't believe I'm going to say this but...Frank was annoying, sure, but he wasn't an asshole. How do you mange to assassinate the personality of a character that had no personality? And yet, here we are.

Jughead, who's dating Veronica now, creates Sabrina the Teenage Witch. Yup. I hope she comes back in time and kicks all their asses.

Meanwhile, Veronica finds out that Josie McCoy wants to premiere her movie in Riverdale, or do a test run of it as she's financed it herself and needs to know people will like it before she tries to shop it around. It's an excuse to get Josie back for an episode. Anyway, they love the movie and Josie suggests that Veronica should work in pictures. Which...doesn't her family have a studio? Why does nobody seem to realize this?

[mimi-mindless]

I am sorry to inform you that I am still watching Riverdale (don't do that!). I am not the most attentive watcher so I have some questions someone might be able to answer for me

1. Am I tripping or is Betty's hair always changing between being short and long? Even in the same episode they just keep changing

2. Didn't Jughead know about the parallel universe thing in the beginning of this season? What happened that he forgot?

3. What happened to angel/time travelling Tabitha?

4. Are Betty and Cheryl also cousins in this universe?

Bonus questions I don't actually need answers to under the cut

5. Why does Archie look like a wax figure? Are they trying to make them look younger?

6. Didn't Archie have a story that was more than just "I'm a himbo. What's happening to me?"

7. Didn't Betty have a story that was more than "I want sex, I want to be free?"

8. Did Veronica really just invent the Rocky Horror Picture Show, 4D cinema, birth control, and Sabrina the teenage witch?

[jenny-jensen]

“I’m so proud of you, Cousin!” Cheryl cried, reaching into her purse and pulling out the latest model IPhone, handing it off to her. “I had a feeling you may need this.”

Betty took it with a dazed smile, shaking her head. “You always think of everything, don’t you Cher?”

“Now do you feel like celebrating?” Toni wanted to know.

Her cousin nodded in agreement. “You should really pat yourself on the back, B. You just lost about eighty five pounds of unnecessary weight.”

Bombshell

Chapter 16

Your POV

Today was the day of the fifth harmony concert. I am super nervous. Why are I am nervous you might ask well you are going to find out. I am standing in the bathroom giving myself a pep talk. My phone rings and I answer it.

"Hello"

"Is everything set up. I am super nervous."

"Yep everything is set up. I can't wait to meet you."

"I can't wait to me you too, Lauren or should I say cousin." I say as a hang up the phone. I found out recently that I was related to Lauren Jauregui. Yeah crazy I know, I was digging though old photo albums and I found a young version of me and Lauren apparently she is only one year older than me. (I know she is older than that. Just work with me here.)

Cheryl POV

I don't know why Y/N is talking to herself in the mirror. She seems nervous. She sounded like she was talking to someone on the phone. She is definitely planning something and I can't wait to find out what it is.

Your POV

We were driving to the concert. The car was a little packed but it was fine. We finally arrived at the venue. We get out of the car and a man comes up to me and gave me five backstage passes to the concert. Damn Lauren really came through.

"How did you get backstage passes" Veronica asks.

"My friend gave them to me." I say as they all look confused. Eventually the concert started and we listened the concert from the comfort of backstage. The girls were having a lot of fun. Eventually it was my cue to go to the bathroom.

"HEY CHER I AM GOING TO THE BATHROOM." I yelled over the sound of the music.

Cheryl's POV

"Alright everyone we had a special song requested from someone." One of the singer announced. They started singing Marry you from Bruno Mars.

"Can I have Cheryl Blossom come on stage" Another singer says I really confused and Veronica pushes me on stage. They put me in the middle of the stage and continue singing.

"Cheryl Blossom will you marry me." I familiar voice says in the microphone. Look to the side of me and see Y/N down on one knee with a ring box in her hands.

"Ever since we started dating all I ever wanted is to make you happy. I want to continue making you happy for the rest of my life. If you will let me, Cheryl Blossom will you be my wife." I tear up. I heard the crowd awing.

"Yes" I say as I bring her into a kiss and she slips the ring onto my finger.

"Give it up to the happy couple. See you later cuz" Lauren says. We exit the stage.

Your POV

"OMG LET ME SEE THE RING" The girls say to Cheryl.

"Also how did you set this up." Cheryl says to me.

"It turns out that I am cousins with Lauren. I got into touch with her a few weeks ago and I set this up with her" I say and Cheryl kisses me.

"Y/N. Come her cuz" Lauren says. I give her a hug.

"Thank you for this. Also this is Veronica, Betty, Toni and of course this is my lovely fiancé." I say introducing everyone.

"Uh um hi" Toni say sticking her hand out to Lauren.

"Toni close your mouth you are drooling" Veronica says and Toni blushes.

"Let me introduce everyone else." Lauren says. We end up hang out with each other for awhile. I go over to Toni.

"You know it is not nice to stare." I say to her.

"I can't help myself. Look at her." She says pointing to Lauren.

"First of all I am not the one crushing over my cousin. Just ask her out or I will do it for you." I say she shakes her head.

"Suit your self." I say before walking over to Lauren.

"Hey she is not bad to look at right." I say pointing at Toni.

"No she is cute" she says to me.

"How about I give her your number and you two can go on a date."

"Sure sounds good. If it helps I am free tomorrow."

"She is too. I will make sure she knows that." I say and Lauren waves and winks at Toni. I walk back over to her and take Toni phone and put Lauren's number in it.

"You have a date with her tomorrow. Your welcome" I say to Toni. This is hilarious she looks all kinds of flustered. We end up heading home. Me and Cheryl head up my room and end up making out and having sex. Which lead to later ended up to cuddles and we fell asleep. Damn I love this women.

[chonidale]

ik you prefer cheryl/betty cousins but i really love how riverdale ended with betty having toni in such high regard, her not wanting to know at first how toni passed away was really sweet and sad, but anyways, since betty probably suffered from alzheimer's i will simply make up in my mind that even if she doesn't remember she kept in touch with choni bc they were activists and she was writing her feminist and progresive magazine (also this ending for her is miles better than FBI betty, sorry)

i know certain shippers have convinced themselves of it, but i really did not get any kind of vibe that she had alzheimer's and think she was simply forgetting details like all old people do and learning what happened to people she lost touch with. and i do think her not keeping in touch with choni is expected, they didn't seem very close, just that they respected each other. seemed like choni were much smaller, on the ground, activists that fought to make a difference in their community vs betty's more broad approach across the country. and i could see her giving them a bit of a spotlight when she first started out though.

liveblogging this most recent riverdale ep but in one post so as to not annoy my beloved mutuals

LMFAO why is josie an adult??? is this my wandavision theory coming true??? that they’re all just playing a role and it’s not time travel????

i like that josie and archie are the only ones remotely attempting a 1950s accent

ALRIGHT THEM MAKING CHERYL AND BETTY RANDOMLY COUSINS IS SO ANNOYING TO ME BECAUSE IT IS SIMPLY NOT IMPORTANT AT ALL (other than establishing how fucked up the Blossoms are but we get that in plenty of other ways) BUT ALSO BECAUSE THEY DEFINITELY HAVE SOME WEIRD CHEMISTRY RIGHT?????

“honestly, Josie, I started this club because I was tired” i’m so serious Toni is the only person who makes any sense on this show

veronica the adult teenage businesswoman

OKAY NO SERIOUSLY WHY IS JOSIE RANDOMLY AN ADULT????

veronica the adult sixteen year old having her 4pm cocktail

vughead is literally a ridiculous ship. like. why. how. who. on what planet. it doesn’t even enrage me like barchie does. it just. baffles me.

riverdale villains are always like “i hate poetry and gay people should die” and it’s like yeah the moral line for being a villain in this show is pretty clear

for the first time. in riverdale history. i feel bad for archie andrews.

what are your favorite riverdale characters, ships, friendships, storylines + ranking of the seasons? :)

characters: i could probably write a literal essay on each and every one of them, but my top girlies are cheryl, betty, and archie

ships: the short answer is whatever's funniest, but the long answer is that i would kind of love for jarchie to go canon. and beronica would be icing on the cake. choni also holds a special place in my heart for unclear reasons (read: i think they're cute and it overpowers my need for narrative logic). i think cheryl is kind of bad for toni, but i think she's also worked hard over the time jump to get better. or at least weirder (complimentary). veggie was also kind of a delight; just two gorgeous wannabe mobsters and their beautiful little scams. i also really genuinely love jabitha. easily the healthiest, most functional relationship the show has ever seen. finally, the truth of the matter is that any dating combination of the core four would be interesting and fucked up in a different way, so i think regardless of how things end, it'll be narratively rich.

friendships: betty and cheryl!! weird, scary, pretty cousins who maybe sometimes kind of hate each other but will also do anything for each other? very slay. betty and veronica is also very compelling, especially in early seasons, so i'd love more of that in season 7. jughead and archie.... well yes! fellas is it gay if you mythologize your best friend as a shirtless folk hero? i also really want betty and toni to do more together!!

storylines: THE FARM!! when chad michael murray stood up and clapped at the musical, i felt like jesus must've felt when he ascended into heaven. i also loved literally everything about season 6. rivervale was so smart and well-planned, and the way it all tied together was perfection. it's not queerbaiting, it's saving the world. the way things all came together with the mothmen storyline was also deeply inspired. my favorite running joke, which i guess is a bit of a storyline, is hermione on rhony. hiram and veronica's entire relationship arc is kind of everything. oh and abigail and thomasina and poppyseed and all of those historical riverdale lesbian character studies!! i am literally so certain there's stuff i'm forgetting because i'm doing this off the top of my head and i need to get back to my rewatch!!

seasons: okay this is by no means definitive because the seasons don't exist super separately in my head for some reason? but this is a vague contour of my thoughts: 6 > 3 > 5 > 4 > 1 (feels stupid to have it relatively low because it came out of the gate giving everything and setting a wonderful stage) > 2 (and 2 is such a good season, i'm just scared of the black hood lmao)

#thank youuuuuu for asking :)

To summarise:

Archie has nightmares about his time at the trenches in Verdun, when he wasn’t able to save one of his soldiers. World War I has been hard on Archie.

World War I has been hard on Eric as well, who’s taken to sleep-walking(?) with his loaded rifle. No wonder Jughead lives at the garage.

Uncle Frank has the brilliant idea to get Archie and Eric a dog as a therapy pet. Except this is Riverdale, so the dog, too, has trauma.

It’s not only young women who have gone missing in Riverdale but also canines: there is an illegal dog fighting ring that no one knows where it is. The Three Army Buddies find it nevertheless and take it down. I’m breathless with how many times Archie has saved this town.

Archie will now take care of a hundred and one dogs. Not Dalmatians though, which is a pity, because that would have worked so well with his firefighter plot line. Toffee is rolling on the floor laughing.

Archie in 5x14:

In a completely unexpected turn of events, season 5 being a new show and everything, Veronica decides to go after her father’s business. She recruits Reggie, who just wants to work for a Lodge really. Maybe now Smithers will be allowed to retire?

“SoDale is a scam?!” asks outraged one of the investors, who hasn’t bothered to check on his investment before Ronnie called him.

You catch more flies with honey than vinegar, unless you’re the She-Wolf of Wall Street, in which case you apply reverse psychology i.e. condescension. It’s not surprising that it works. I mean, these were Hiram’s investors to begin with.

Fabergé only made about 69 eggs, but his cousin Glamergé must have made much more, because Veronica is giving them away like candy to her clients. I just wish one of the writers had googled a Fabergé egg’s price. Oh, well.

Riverdale High is still doing distance learning. Or maybe not. I mean, Kevin was there but I didn’t see any students in attendance.

Kevin is named teacher of the year, probably because he’s the only person that has ever taught drama, debate, biology, gym and sex-ed in the span of a single year. I bet this was Mrs Bell’s doing (both the scheduling and the accolade).

Ever since Archie & co started teaching, he’s been left with too much free time to make (new) bad decisions, including asking ex-gaslighting girlfriend Cheryl for relationship advice.

When he goes over at Fangs’ to ask for clemency, he catches his ex having wine and cheese with his other ex, i.e. his ex’s ex’s ex. As Cheryl exclaimed: That is diabolical.

The maths is too hard for him so he joins a new cult.

Riverdale is the only show where becoming the art director for a cult led by a convicted serial killer is considered a step-up from being a teacher.

Run, Moose, Run.

Some people collect butterflies. Betty collects serial killers. Much like with the butterflies, she insists on catching them on her own.

She has now quit the FBI but since no one has asked her to hand over her bureau-issued gear, she still has her badge, her gun and a collection of FBI jackets to give her accomplices friends. This is consistent with the FBI forgetting to pack up their Riverdale field office for 7 years.

Glen makes an appearance to request Betty’s badge -but not her gun or jacket(s). He’s probably still pissed that Betty stabbed him and got away with it but he was the one researching her serial killer genes, so he’s got no excuse for not having been prepared.

After their successful team-up in 5x11, where they lost both Jughead and his manuscript, Betty and Tabitha collaborate again to track down The Lonely Highway Killer (LHK) by first luring him to Pop’s with sexy dancing.

It is a wonder that LHK hasn’t been caught yet as he travels with blood all over his truck. It is also a wonder that he managed to kill anybody, because apparently his pick-up line is “I like to watch people die, will you excuse me just a sec to go grab my chainsaw?” or something to that effect.

Betty turns her back to a serial killer for one second (this is premium FBI training stuff) and he (momentarily) disappears. No manners at all. 

LHK and Betty have a show-down, him with his chainsaw, Betty with her trusty spanner. Unlike Glen, LHK hasn’t done research on the Cooper/Smith serial killer genes and, thus, doesn’t stand a chance.

Tabitha wants to hand him over to the FBI. Tabitha is new to the show.

Taking into consideration Glen’s general incompetence, I’m with Betty on this one.

Toffee is on a self-exploration journey at Llasa visiting the Jokhang temple. She’s not coming back until Archie has his dogs under control.

One down, six more opportunities for Cheryl to burst into song.

Cheryl//you can’t go through life trying not to get hurt

Request: So can I ask for a cheryl x reader where r does everything to make cheryl happy and just being supportive of her?

hey! i kind of got just a little bit carried away with this. but i think i pulled it back! i hope you like it! also, i know the title is an archie quote but i don’t really care because it fits and i like it! plus, they’re both red-heads so what’s really the difference? 

- We know Cheryl hasn’t had the best life 

- Her entire family and everything to do with it is tainted

- So for a long while, she thinks she’s tainted to

- And when she meets you 

- On a rainy Friday night, sat by Sweetwater River

- With your hair plastered to your face and the brightest smile she’s ever seen 

- She knows she has to stay away from you

- Because anybody who can be that happy sat in the pouring rain 

- Is somebody too pure for her 

- So she turns around and heads back to her car 

- Deciding that if she wants to be alone, she can just do it at home

- But then she hears it

- Your voice

- So soft, but so demanding 

- And you’re calling her name 

- Her name has never sounded so pretty 

- Even if it is coming from a complete stranger, who’s staring at such a dark place like its the most beautiful thing in the world

- ‘yea-yeah?’

- Her confidence slips for just a few seconds and its purely down to the way you’re looking at her 

- Like she’s filled with magic and wonder and mystery 

- A mystery you’re going to solve 

- Spoiler alert...you do

- ‘come sit’ You pat the rock beside you and she glances warily between you and it 

- It may have stopped raining but that rock is still very wet and she’s wearing a new skirt 

- ‘oh come on. live a little’ Your eyes sparkle as you speak 

- She eventually concedes and sits beside you

- Now she just has to make sure she doesn’t give too much away 

- Never let anyone else in

- Its the mantra she’s been repeating for as long as she can remember 

- This time she’s going to stick to it 

- Spoiler alert...she doesn’t

- Because thats easier said than done when a pretty girl is asking her questions 

- Or just paying attention to her tbh

- So she asks you questions instead 

- ‘how do you know who i am?’��

- Normally she’d be afraid of a complete stranger who knew her name

- But this time, she’s just curious 

- She wants to know who you are 

- Why you’re in Riverdale?

- How has a town so full of dark secrets and awful people managed to capture you?

- She’s expecting a long winded explanation about how you just moved from a big city

- Because lets be real, thats the only place she can picture you living 

- But instead you just laugh 

- Such a light, unexpected laugh

- And now she’s unsure of what to say 

- What do you say to that?

- ‘i know a lot about a lot’ 

- ‘wow’ She mutters 

- She couldn’t help it 

- She is Cheryl Blossom after all 

- She can’t been seen as anything other than a bitch 

- But when she see’s the flash of hurt in your eyes 

- She can’t help but feel even more like the worst person in the world 

- She mumbles a quick apology and looks at the river instead 

- ‘its fine.’ You shrug. ‘you’ve been through a lot’ 

- ‘how do you know?’ 

- ‘i just do. but you will be okay cheryl, and don’t worry, you could never taint anything. i don’t think you’re capable of even leaving a trace of something bad.’ 

- She really wants to say something 

- But what the hell do you say to that? 

- And when she turns to face you, hoping the right words will find their way somehow 

- You’ve vanished 

- For a split second she thinks you’re a ghost 

- Its not the first time she’s had full on conversations with the dead 

- But then she hears a thud

- Followed by a groan and a small ‘ow’ 

- And it makes her laugh 

- Like properly laugh 

- The first she has in a while 

- She watches you stand and give her an awkward wave before actually disappearing 

- For the rest of the weekend you’re the only thing she can think of 

- By the time Monday rolls around she’s determined to find you 

- It can’t be hard 

- You’ve got to be a new student

- And Betty gives tours to all the newbies 

- She’ll just ask her 

- Thats easier said than done though

- She tried looking for her cousin before classes started 

- She even came in early 

- But no luck 

- So she has to wait until lunch time 

- And that makes her worry 

- By lunch time, you could have been told literally everything about her 

- How her brother was murdered by her father 

- How awful her mother is 

- She was almost assaulted 

- She attempted suicide 

- And she joined a cult 

- Just to name a few 

- Riverdale High is a breeding ground for rumours 

- Usually created by her 

- But they spread fast around here

- When lunch time rolls around, she’s sure you’re going to know how much of a train-wreck she actually is 

- Despite all of that though 

- Something inside her wills her to ask Betty about you 

- She then goes on to describe everything she remembers about you 

- Maybe in a little too much detail 

- ‘she had sparkly y/e/c eyes’ 

- ‘and y/c/h hair that framed her face in just the nicest way’ 

- ‘and her smile...it was wonderful’ 

- ‘...right. did you get a name?’

- ‘if i got her name do you really think i would be here right now?’ 

- ‘che-’ Betty is cut off by someone calling her name 

- The sound of it making Cheryl feel like she can’t breathe 

- She knows that voice 

- Even Betty’s name sounds nice when coming from her 

- From you

- But hold on

- You’re hugging Betty 

- Thats way too friendly for someone you’ve only known for half a day 

- ‘hi cheryl’ Your wave is less awkward than it was on Friday night, but your smile is just as cheerful as you look at the red head. 

- Okay, now she definitely doesn’t know what to say

- Betty quickly puts two and two together and smirk appears on her lips as she looks between the two of you 

- She has known about your small crush on Cheryl for a while 

- So she decides to help you out 

- ‘what were you saying about y/n’s smile? it was amazing? no! wonderful!’ 

- ‘shut up betty. i think your boyfriend wants you’ 

- She’s practically shooing Betty away and she mutters something under her breath but walks away anyway 

- Once she’s gone, Cheryl turns back to you and just stares at you 

- ‘so, you go here?’ 

- ‘yep?’ 

- ‘how long?’ She really doesn’t want to know the answer 

- ‘as long as you have’ You don’t seem annoyed when she looks at you 

- The opposite in fact

- You kind of look amused 

- ‘how have i not noticed you?’ 

- ‘you’ve been pre-occupied I suppose’ 

- ‘how can i make it up to you?’ 

- ‘notice me’ 

- ‘i’ve definitely already done that.’

- ‘take me to pops then’ 

- She never wanted to do something more

- But she’s torn 

- She wants to say no. To keep you safe from her and everything that come with being involved with a Blossom 

- But the way you’re looking at her makes her knees weak and her head dizzy 

- So she says yes 

- And its the best decision she’s ever made

- At first you take it slow 

- She’s been hurt before 

- And she’s hurt other 

- But something that makes it easier is the fact that you already know everything about her 

- Even if you were in the background during most of it 

- She’s so excited to get to know you

- One of the first things she learns is how you’ll do anything to make the people you love happy 

- Especially her 

- She’s quite literally never met anybody like you 

- You’re just so supportive of her 

- Nobody has ever treated her like that 

- So at first she doesn’t really know what to do 

- But then she remembers the night you met 

- And how you were so kind to her 

- Even though she didn’t know who you were 

- And she slowly starts to get used to it

- In return she learns how to be more supportive of others

- Something her friends are incredibly grateful for 

- To the actual supporting/happy bit because I kind of got a bit carried away 

- Whenever she’s sad 

- Whether it be because she’s missing Jason 

- Her mom/other family members have made an unwelcome appearance in her life 

- Someone has been rude to her 

- Or she’s just sad

- You will do literally anything and everything to make her smile 

- Cuddles? Hell yeah! 

- She wants to stay in bed all day? That sounds like an amazing day.

- She wants to watch her favourite film/tv show? Definitely

- ‘where do you keep your dvd’s?’ 

- ‘what century are you living in? you know there is a thing called the internet.’ 

- She wants her favourite food from Pops? You’re already out the door 

- You’ll go for drives around town while she tells you stories of her and Jason 

- Or you’ll let her teach your archery or some other weird hobby she has 

- Plus, you’ll tell her all the stupid jokes you know 

- Usually she laughs more out of pity than humour

- But it still counts 

- ‘sure it does babe’ 

- And if someone has made her angry 

- It doesn’t really take much

- But you’re working on it 

- You are 100% behind her if she wants to ruin their life (in moderation) 

- You go along with whatever crazy plan/scheme she’s though of that week

- She wants to start a business? Where do you sign? This is the best idea ever 

- Steal something from somebody thats wronged her? Where is the best place to buy spy-wear 

- Create a little chaos? You’ve already got three ideas planned out you just need her approval

- Its not just silly things either 

- She decides she wants to go to therapy (everybody in this town needs it, including Pop). You’ll go with her and wait outside of every single session if she wants you to. 

- You usually spend the time googling how to help her (she just thinks you spend the entire time on Instagram) 

- She wants to properly cut off her family (with the exception of Nana Rose and the twins). You 100% support her if thats what she wants

- As your relationship grows, so does your support 

- She’s literally never felt more loved than when she’s with you 

- And you make it a mission to make her feel like this for the rest of her life 

- Spoiler alert...you do

support my writing! if you want!
