Back at it again with the horrifying dall-e 2 blossomcest creations, today we have. The one decent one i could get of an attempt at christmas. Still, quite terrifying.
Tumblr media
I think the key is to sort of catch it with the corner of your eye, and then it's quite lovely.
Or to just embrace the horror of it. For some reason Jason is paralyzed, and someone has positioned him like that, and the chair is trying to assimilate Cheryl. Instead of Afterlife with Archie it's Blossoms in the House of Horror. And we just build a shippy fic around that premise, lol.
Keep at it because honestly I am loving these. And I can't wait for the tech to keep getting better.

✨Moodboard Teaser: In Technicolor✨
With the release of the first chapter coming in hot with its expected release being this Friday at the latest or sooner (possibly as early as tomorrow) I wanted to take the time to acquaint everyone with the primary couples in this story. Usually I cap it at two couples and have auxilary couples and characters on the fringes. But because this is a crossover between two of my favorite shows, I have expanded it to three—possibly four—couples with auxilaries (secondary) on the fringes. These couples will include original characters i.e. Wynn Galpin who is Tyler Galpin’s younger sister. There is a crossover couple that joins the Wednesday group with the Riverdale group. This couple is where I expect to receive the most backlash but idc. Their my crossover otp and I hope you all trust me enough to keep reading and join me/the characters on this journey. I have also switched some things up with one of the Riverdale characters because the ship only got screen time in the last season and it did more for their character than their actual failed relationships did the entire season. Fight me. But don’t. Or do.
Anyway, here are the couples moodboards, as promised. The visuals were inspired by Baz Luhrmann’s Romeo + Juilet because these past few months since January I have been on a 90’s and 2000’s kick and I am dying for how that movie captured the beauty, grit, grime, and excitement of LA. So enjoy and let me know what you think! 💜
.

Tumblr media
We open with our crossover couple who are the star-crossed lovers—Cheryl Blossom, the queen of the Palisades and star tennis player and Pugsley “Lee” Addams, the king of Elysian Heights and leader of his grunge sleeze band Texca. Born second generation to a working class defense attorny and day-time caregiver to the elderly, Lee Addams has just wants to make it through his senior year of high school and hangout with his friends on the weekend. But when he and his twin sister Wednesday step a little too far over the line at their old school their parents pull some strings to have their three children—Wednesday, Pugsley, and Pubert “Bertie” attend Morticia’s former high school. There, Lee unwittingly comes face to face with the campus queen, the indomitable and untouchable Cheryl Blossom. Born into privilege with the face of an angel and the bite of a viper, she has everything and anything. Influence thanks to her parents name. Adoration by way of her beauty. And power because of her abilities to manipulate others. But what happens when a hurricane meets an immoveable force? Will they fold? Destroy one another? What happens when the pretty vicious face isn’t all it seems to be and the cutting confidence is stripped away? Who are the real people that lie beneath it all?
.
.
Tumblr media
Next are our second pair of the four star-crossed lovers. While it is never a good idea to fall for your twin flame, for Tyler and Wednesday it isn’t so simple. Twin flames and soulmates fused into one as if it were a sick joke, their story begins at a party—the raven haired twin sister with her face painted like a Catrina (see: Dia de los Muertos symbols and iconography) and the Galpin golden boy dressed like Sir Lancelot with the sacred heart etched into his chest plate. Like her brothers, Wednesday grew up living a modest life where nothing was taken for granted and family sits at the heart of all major decisions. For Tyler, he has forgotten the importance of family and community after starting university where his life has evolved into an endless stream of parties and hookup’s. Never struggling but also never being challenged to be better or grow, he’s hit a wall. A mid-life crisis of sorts but at the already chaotic age of 18 with his 19th birthday right around the corner. But from the moment he lays eyes on Wednesday she is all he can think of. All he breathes and dreams of—a beautiful stranger that won’t free him. Yet when this silver tongued Casanova tries to approach the dark beauty he’s shot down. Challenged to question who he is and what he truly is doing with his life that matters. What is in store for the idealistic social revolutionist and her troubled admirer? Where will they land when the walls of his kingdom come crumbling down?
.

Tumblr media
The youngest of three siblings each yet one is protected and coddled like a greenhouse flower while the other has flourished amidst hardship and bouts of poverty. Wynn Galpin is caught in a never-ending loop of compassions to her twin older siblings, Tyler and Enid. Both are straight A students. Both star athletes with Tyler winning championship after championship for swim and Enid earning a full-ride scholarship to UCLA for volleyball. Both are charming and charismatic. Both are perfect and Wynn can never compare despite how she tries. She doesn’t have the passion for swim or volleyball so she chooses cheer. “That’s not a real sport” she’s told. Her siblings get A’s but she can hardly scrape by with B’s while battling her depression and anxiety. At all times, her mind is screaming for her to just run off and disappear. And after the loss of her friend and pseudo-sister Polly, the darkness has become more persuasive. More invasive and vicious. But it is during a spiral that forces her out of the gym during cheer practice that she runs into the new kid. The brainiac junior in her senior level AP classes. Pubert “Bertie” Addams. A carefree class clown with a heart of gold and the virgin Guadalupe drawn in vibrant neons on the bottom of his skateboard. Where will this new path take them when the class clown and the beauty queen who seems to always be in tears meet to form an oddball friendship? And what happens when their hearts begin to long for more than just friendship but their worlds couldn’t be more different? How will things turn out for the greenhouse flower and her sidewalk dandelion?
.
.
Tumblr media
What’s the worst that could happen when you fall in love with your best friend? What happens when you think they love someone else? When you think they could never see you the way you see them in return? Do you stand there and wait for them to turn around? Or do you walk away while piecing together your heart that will never know real closure? Reggie has asked himself these questions nearly every day for the past six years since his family moved to the fringes of the Palisades and enrolled him in the affluent junior high nearby. Archie Andrews was his first friend at his new school all those years ago. The first one to get up during lunch time and sit down next to him. The one who didn’t care that his parents weren’t from money and had only recently come into their fortune. The one who didn’t care that he didn’t have the newest clothes, phone, or hairstyle. Like a guardian angel come to save him from perpetual solitude, Archie befriended Reggie with a bright smile and a silly joke. And since that day, Reggie has kept his love for the redhaired boy wonder to himself. Has been the picture of what a bestfriend should be. Has supported Archie and defended him. Joined their high school swim team with him just so that they could live out Archie’s dream of being the one’s to break Tyler, the former captain’s, record and win more championships than him and his team did. Reggie has lived a beautiful but painful lie for nearly a decade and the cracks have begun to show. The devotion now agony. The love a barbed dagger twisted liettle by little every time he has to play third wheel on Archie’s dates with his girlfriend Veronica. But one night their eyes meet across a sea of moving bodies at a house party. Archie kissing Veronica but can’t stop looking at Reggie. There’s a spark. A sadness. Hope. But is there truth? Is there a willingness to be honest? To accept this attraction that has been there waiting from the start? Does Archie know what real love could be like if he just turned around? Or will the lovefool angel look away once again and leave the poor friend and saint in the dark?
.
.
.
Stay tuned for more because this is only the beginning. Next will be the auxiliary couples, characters, and family boards for the three main ones at play. But the next next post that will be following this one will be the official titlecard for Chapter One. Can’t wait to see you all again there. 💜

BEING A LIST OF THE THIRTEEN GREATEST RIVERDALE LINES, ON THE OCCASION OF THAT SHOW'S TERMINATION
As our much loved/hated show comes to an end, I feel compelled to record, for posterity, the greatest thirteen pieces of dialogue to spring from the pens of RAS and his henchmen. It was, of course, originally a top ten list, but I simply could not exclude a few of these treasures. Without further ado: 
13. 
“I dropped out in the 4th grade, to sell drugs, to support my nana.” 
“That means you haven't known the triumphs and defeats, the epic highs and lows of high school football.” 
Spoken by: an inmate of Leopold and Loeb Juvenile Detention Center, and Archie Andrews. 
In: 3 x 2 
Yeah, okay, this one had to be on the list. It’s funny, I’ll admit. It’s a great example of the overwrought semi-sincere melodrama that helped make this show so special. It’s low on the list largely because The Normies got their hands on it, so every time I hear someone make a reference I get all “do not cite the deep magic to me, witch.” 
12. 
“No! No! What are we supposed to do now? I’m horny as heck!”
Spoken by: Archie Andrews 
In: 7 x 16
Season 7 is undeniably dreadful, and yet there are diamonds in the rough. The occasion is the failure of a projector, just as Archie and Reggie prepare to watch a pornographic film. The utter desperation with which KJ Apa delivers this line is exquisite. One is made to feel they are witnessing a genuine tragedy. 
11. 
“Tonight, they’re making an exception and debuting a cover of the song my parents claim they were listening to the night Jason and I were conceived.” 
Spoken by: Cheryl Blossom. 
In: 1 x 1 
Really a fantastic line. A wonderful encapsulation of the casual absurdity of Cheryl’s character, and a foretaste of the lunacy we would plumb in later episodes and seasons. 
10. 
“In case you haven’t noticed, I’m weird. I’m a weirdo. I don’t fit in and I don’t want to fit in. Have you ever seen me without this stupid hat on? That’s weird.” 
Spoken by: Jughead Jones
In: 1 x 10
A genuine classic. “High school football” before “high school football.” One is never entirely sure just how sincere the line is meant to be, both on a meta-level and in-universe. A perfect illumination of Jughead’s pretentiousness. It is made all the better by the occasional cuts to Lili Reinhard’s agonized face. 
9. 
“At the last dance, multiple students were murdered.” 
Spoken by: Principal Holden Honey. 
In: 4 x 2
Delivered as an explanation to Toni and Cheryl, as to why there would be no school dance this year. Principal Honey is in fact supremely rational in the cancellation of this dance. This being Riverdale, he is of course treated as an unreasonable tyrant. 
8. 
“Bro, I know all the secrets of this universe.” 
Spoken by: Archie Andrews (evil version)
In: 6 x 5 
Spoken as evil Archie reveals his evil plan to keep the parallel universes apart. KJ Apa’s delivery once again makes this line. He is comically sinister. Strangely, he sells it. 
7. 
“A Vughead kiss, right now, in the present might be precisely what it takes to save a future Bughead from imploding.” 
Spoken by: Jughead Jones. 
In: 2 x 14
One of those lines that both makes me laugh and makes me genuinely angry. This was a fairly early season, and this may have actually been the first line to get me asking, ‘did they genuinely write and deliver that?’ Extra points for use of the atrocious ‘Vughead’ portmanteau ship name rather than ‘Jeronica.’ 
6. 
“I’m the ultimate wild card. I am the daughter of The Black Hood. The nightmare from next door. I’m training with the FBI and I’m coming for you, you psycho bitch.” 
Spoken by: Betty Cooper
In: 4 x 14 
Just delicious. Another one of those lines that leaves you somewhat unsure whether or not the writers understood how genuinely hysterical it was. “The Nightmare from Next Door” sounds like an announcer hyping up a wrestler. Spoken with a raw sincerity by Lili Reinhart. Also points for the heavy homoeroticism between Betty and Donna. 
5. 
“For I am Cheryl Blossom, Queen of the Bees.” 
Spoken by: Cheryl Blossom.
In: 5 x 16. 
This one really doesn’t require any elaboration. 
4. 
“Elijah ascended…and I will, too.” 
Spoken by: Edgar Evernever.
In: 4 x 5. 
Admittedly, this one is only spectacular with context. But in context—the context being that Chad Michael Murray delivers this line while dressed like Evel Knievel and standing in a cartoon rocket right out of a Warner Bros cartoon—it becomes utterly magnificent. 
3. 
“It’s not queer baiting, it’s saving the world.” 
Spoken by: Veronica Lodge. 
In: 6 x 22. 
It’s actually hard for me to decide whether this one is funnier with or without context. Without context it’s wonderful, but it possibly becomes even funnier when you know that the context is that Veronica needs to kiss Cheryl to transfer superpowers into her body so she can turn into a Scarlet Witch knock-off and stop a magic comet summoned by Sephiroth an English wizard who is also the Devil. 
2. 
“If there’s no wedding reception, it means the Gargoyle King has won.” 
Spoken by: Kevin Keller. 
In: 3 x 12.
One of my personal favorites. This is a perfect line because like #3, it requires no real elaboration. There is absolutely no context in which it isn’t hysterical. 
1 .
“Word of my exploits serving Nick his comeuppance has seeped into the demimonde of mobsters and molls my father used to associate with, so the five families are sending their youngest and brightest, their ‘princes,’ as it were to, well, come court the rare Mafia Princess who can belly up to the bar with the big boys.
Spoken by: Veronica Lodge. 
In: 2 x 20. 
This is, in my opinion, the all-timer. Every word is perfect. The rapid-fire alliteration. The use of the word ‘demimonde.’ The entirely unnecessary addition of ‘as it were.’ This is borderline Dr. Seuss. The fact that Camila Mendes delivered it without cracking a smile should have won her an Emmy. No. An Oscar. This line is Riverdale.

Being a kecle and dating nick bosa and having both brother give her the silent treatment or they blow up on her till. nick goes and talks to them like after each time he's played them so he wouldn't even talk to Jason til the championship game
Tumblr media
Welcome to the Family - Nick Bosa x kelce!sister
(sibling cold shoulder stuff; SFW)
His girlfriend didn't make the trip to Philadelphia to see him play against Eagles. She was back at their home in Santa Clara, nursing a bad cold and holing herself up in guest bedroom away from Nick to prevent him catching her cold during the playoffs.
Nick thought it was ridiculous. She was very sick at first, causing him to consider not even playing in the Dallas game until she chewed him out for it. He was worried about her and the cold she caught, but couldn't seem to shake off.
He was moments away from contacting Mrs. Kelce when his girlfriend finally let up and allowed him to come in the room if he promised to keep a distance and didn't try to kiss her.
Now, she was feeling much better and he was relieved about that, but he was still worried about her. Thankfully one of his teammate's girlfriends, who didn't make the trip either for personal reasons, stopped in to check on her.
He was now in the middle of chatting to his mom and brother before it was time to head out of the hotel when he heard a woman's voice call his name.
He turned around to see the warm, smiling face of Donna Kelce staring back at him.
He was surprised at the sight of her before smiling and accepting the hug she offered him. "Hi, Mrs. Kelce! Great to see you."
She chuckled and chided him, "Now Nick, we spoke about this the last time you saw me. You can call me Donna."
Nick turned and looked to his mother and brother who were watching on curiously. "Mrs. Kelce - Donna, this is my mother, Cheryl Bosa, and my older brother, Joey. Guys this is Donna Kelce. Angie's mom."
Both parties greeted each other warmly, Nick's mom complimenting the split jersey Mrs Kelce was wearing in support of both of her son's playing today.
"I spoke with Angie on the phone a bit ago. I had no idea she was sick!"
Nick nodded and sighed, "Yeah she's been stubborn about it all. She kept herself locked in the guest bedroom the last two weeks, but finally let up about it this past week and let me in to take care of her. She thinks she picked it up at work since it's going around."
Mrs. Kelce nodded, knowing just how stubborn her youngest child was. "Yes, that's definitely something she has in common with Travis. Well - Jason too. They're all stubborn brats at times." She joked.
Nick nodded, saying nothing to the last part, but agreeing whole-heartedly.
His relationship with the Kelce brothers was odd. Her parents were friendly and greeted him with open arms. Her brothers did not.
Travis was the first to finally accept and come to terms that his sister was dating a fellow NFL player, and approached Nick after the 49ers loss earlier in the season to the Chiefs.
Travis had approached him and shook his hand after the game, saying, "Tell Angie I'm stopping by tonight before we fly out tomorrow."
Nick nodded and they parted ways.
That night, Travis sulked a bit at the couple's kitchen table as his sister chewed him out for being an asshole the last couple of months. Nick said nothing and stayed out of it.
Neither man was surprised when she then got to serving dinner and asked to say grace together. That was just Angie's way.
Things were good after that. Sure, they weren't best friends, but an understanding and respect formed between the two of them with Travis even occasionally reaching out to congratulate him on his team's win.
It was just Jason.
Who was still being, "a stubborn asshole whose ass I will kick," according to Angie.
Nick had yet to meet the older brother personally, but knew the man didn't care for him.
Mrs. Kelce gave him another hug again, telling him good luck and saying goodbye to his family as she made her way out of the hotel.
His mom complimented her decision to stop by and greet him.
He appreciated it too.
-----
Nick was deeply upset and hurt as he limped his way off the field. It was crushing to lose so badly like this.
It was if the well oiled machine of the 49ers just came apart in the span of minutes the second Brock went out and Johnson came on.
Everyone there or watching knew it too.
They injury on his ankle was just the icing on the fucking cake.
Just as he was getting ready to leave the field and find refuge in the locker room, wanting so bad to just go back to his girlfriend, he was interrupted by a hand clapping his left shoulder.
He looked up in irritation, both at being interrupted from his gloom and at himself for not realizing someone was likely calling his name just moments ago.
He was surprised to see the serious face of Jason Kelce staring back.
Both were quiet for a moment before Jason held his hand out to him, "Good game, man. I'm sorry it didn't turn out in your favorite tonight. You guys have been killing it all season."
Nick cleared his throat and accepted the handshake. "Thanks. Yeah.. I guess that's just football." He said awkwardly, not knowing what else to say to his girlfriend's oldest brother.
He had overheard the phone argument that day she had with Jason, and had heard the stuff Jason said about him.
He was pissed for the longest time over that, but soon realized that it wasn't really about him at the end of the day personally, but just a man trying to look out for his baby sister.
Still, this was awkward.
"Look," Jason stared away for a minute before looking back at him, trying to ignore the loud cheering of the stadium around them. This wasn't the best place to hold a conversation, but he clearly wanted to do it now and Nick, while exhausted, knew it was pretty important too. "I've been an asshole. I'm sorry for the shit I said to Angie about you and your character. I'm sorry I upset her and made her cry too. She's my baby sister and I am always prepared to step in when necessary. I know that's not much of a consolidation in all of this, but I am sorry for causing any strain on your guys relationship. It wasn't right."
Nick just stared at him for a moment or two, processing what he was saying, before responding back, "I get it dude. I really do. Things have been tough and if I had a younger sister, I couldn't imagine how protective I'd be too of her. Just know she means a lot to me and I'd never go out of my way to cause her hurt."
Jason nodded and reached his hand out once more, "I'm glad we could talk a bit. I don't want to hold you up any longer as I see cameras coming this way. I'll reach out to Angie tonight. I know she's going to have a shit ton of stuff to say to me when I do, but I'm ready for it. We'll need to link up at some point."
"For sure." Nick said.
They shook hands again and parted ways.
Nick was still in his head as he made it off the field and to the guest locker room, muting out the noise around him as he thought about what just happened.
He knew the cameras were recording for a distance as both of them spoke, and he knew Angie was likely watching from home and saw it too.
He was sure his phone was blowing up with texts from her.
After he finished showering and changed, he took a seat in front of his locker as he watched his teammates solemnly pack up and change quickly to get the hell out of that stadium.
He had a few minutes before he had to go talk with the media.
He opened his messages and immediately saw Angie's at the top.
Angelina 🤪 I'm so sorry baby. :(
What did Jason say to you? I will fly out there and kick his fucking ass! Let me make sure I pack my inhaler tho
That was over an hour ago and Nick for a split second was worried that she would be crazy enough to fly out here just to rip her brother a new one.
He quickly texted her back.
Nicholas 🐻 Thank you, babe. And he actually was apologizing. He said he'd be calling you later to see about getting together to clear the air.
You feeling any better?
Her response was immediate
Angelina 🤪 I am feeling a bit better than earlier. I'm glad to know it wasn't him being an asshole. Cause he knows I will come out there if I have too.
Nick quietly chuckled a bit to himself at that, knowing how true it was.
Just then his name was called to go out and speak to the press. He sighed and slipped his phone into his pocket as he got up.
While his season was now over as well as his team's chance at the Super Bowl, he'd take the personal win of making amends with his girlfriend's older brother.
Now, if only Angie doesn't kill him when he tells her his plans of not attending the Super Bowl..

It Isn’t About Cheryl
You are Cheryl Blossom’s best friend. She thinks you’re mad at her. Turns out you’re not. Sweet Pea x reader / sick!reader
You were Cheryl Blossom’s best friend. You had been since you had taken your very first ballet class as toddlers. Whenever Cheryl was lonely or needed someone, you were there right alongside Jason until… Until. When Jason had died, Cheryl’s whole world shattered. At one point, she even stood on the thin ice at Sweetwater River, hoping to join him. It was the only time she had seen you that angry.
“You are not going to leave me behind, you understand?” You had screamed, while Veronica and Betty tried to get you to be calmer with her. You had brushed them off in angry tears. “No. No! If you go, I go. Do you understand? We are a non-negotiable. You have to know that.”
She loved you dearly and could be a tad bit overprotective when it came to things such as say, dating. Cheryl had wanted you to marry Jason and officially be her sister, something you had thought of as well. Jason’s death had crushed you too, the boy that you loved for years had not only passed away but been engaged to another. You had a brief fling with Reggie Mantle, which Cheryl now wished she hadn’t allowed, then ended up with more tears. Yours. Not his. 
So when she met you at your locker one morning, your vanilla swirl latte in hand, she was surprised to see you scrunch up your nose. But you took the cup anyway. 
“Thanks, Cher. I just have a bit of a stomach ache. Mom made oatmeal for breakfast and made me eat the entire bowl.”Your mother was a notoriously awful cook and oatmeal was a bland, lumpy food already. Plus, you almost always had a bit of a stomach ache. Stress, nerves, too much dairy. It wasn’t that abnormal.
“My condolences. So we’re still on for the new stunts with the Vixens after school, yes? Then we can celebrate. I’m thinking of a movie musical marathon. Sing-a-long required. With cherry phosphates from Pop’s. My beloved can join us if she wish. If not, it will just be us but that has always been good, yes?”
 You nodded. Cheryl smiled. Most people found her to be a bit…much. She worried about over-showering Toni with love, though she deserved every bit of it. You never seemed to get tired of Cheryl though. And you hadn’t hesitated to forgive her when she may have blown you off a few times at the start of her relationship. When she looked over, you were on your phone, smiling at a text message. Ugh. Sweet Pea.
 Cheryl didn’t have a problem with the Southside Serpents, Toni was one, after all. She didn’t even have a problem with Sweet Pea, per se. He was a good friend to the girlfriend she adored and she trusted Toni’s judgment but you had taken quite a shine to the boy so she had to be cautious. After all your heartbreak, she had to be careful. Sweet Pea was known to get into fights and react emotionally. While you claimed you and Reggie were friends now and he hadn’t been able to help his feelings for Veronica, Cheryl had no problem allowing him to house all the blame. She looked at you again. Your cheeks were heating up. You were blushing. Were you pale behind the blush? It was clear that you were enamored with the boy. When Toni had asked you to help tutor her friend, Cheryl hadn’t been concerned but now? Her concern was high.
She shared her concern with Toni later that day, as they waited for you at their lunch table. The other Vixens would join them soon, you along with them. Toni shook her head, adorable but unable to see reason. “Babe, he’s a good guy. I’ve known him forever. Besides, it’s none of our business if they want to see each other.”
The conversation was ended when the others arrived. You picked at your lunch, your favorite salad, which Cheryl had the chef make specifically for you. She was annoyed at Toni’s lack of alarm and that caused her to snap at you in a way she immediately regretted but didn’t acknowledge to save face. “Do you still have a stomach ache? We have a very important Vixen’s practice after school.”
“I’m fine. Thanks for your concern,” you grumbled back sarcastically as you took a huge bite of the salad as though you were suddenly starving. This surprised Cheryl, as you very rarely snapped at the girl. Toni gave her a look but Cheryl felt herself prickle. She had taken the time to get your favorite latte, which you barely drank, and to have your favorite lunch made for you. So, even if she was a little snippy, she had earned some leeway. Usually, you would both brush these things off. Instead, you powered through your salad before loudly and pointedly announcing how much you loved it. Sarcasm. Since when were you so rudely sarcastic with her?
The prickles lasted throughout the day until Vixens’ practice. Cheryl watched you from the corner of her eyes throughout the day. When she caught you grimacing and rubbing your temples, she was going to brush everything off as a headache but then Sweet Pea said something to you and you smiled and laughed. Cheryl was your best friend and it was some temperamental boy you were smiling at? Ridiculous. Unacceptable.
“Let it go, babe,” Toni told her as everyone lined up for practice. The weather was finally nice enough for them to be outside. Kevin, Fangs, and Sweet Pea loitered in the stands. The football team practiced on the other end of the field.  It should have been a good day.  Something was going on with her best friend. Were you actually mad at her? Over a silly comment? You always had a stomach ache. It was a thing. Cheryl didn’t feel bad. Not at all. Really. “She’s been weird all day. Sweet Pea asked me if I knew what was wrong with her. Something about groaning or moaning or whatever.”
Immediately, she was filled with worried. Groaning? Moaning? About what? Her? Cheryl knew she should relax. Let it go. Talk to you. Instead, she stepped away from Toni and clapped her heads, calling the girls together.
“Alright, Ladies! HBIC is speaking. Our new routine is fire. Or it would be if you all would stop fumbling. So we’re running it until we get it right. Start from the beginning and go through until my solo. I. E. The only part of the number that is currently flawless.” The girls began the dance as Cheryl stood by the radio. It was a solid synchronized beginning that broke off. Toni and Lisa took the front while you and Veronica were lifted into the air. You were tossed and gently placed down and then the girls made a path for the soloist, who would be Cheryl, of course.  The first run was shaky, which Cheryl informed the girls better be a warm-up. The second run was better but not good enough. Not perfect. Everything had to be perfect.
What surprised Cheryl was that you were dragging your feet. You never dragged your feet, dancing being your first love. Your mother ran the town's dance studio and you practiced your moves until they were perfect. Almost annoyingly so. Cheryl kept any jealousy she felt about your talent to herself because she loved her best friend. When Cheryl went to your dance competitions, she was filled with pride. She made everyone run it two more times.
“We’re getting better but still not quite there. Ginger, your arms need to be straight for the opening move, don’t flail. Veronica, adequate. Betty, try to look…I don’t know, interesting? And your kicks need to be higher and crisper. Get Veronica to help you if you can’t figure it out. And Y/N, get it together, please. We’re the River Vixens, not a charity team.” A stunned silence followed her words and no one moved. Cheryl never snapped at you, she never had to. Your face burned red and you moved into position to start the routine. The other girls followed you. You had a strange look on your face and Cheryl thought she saw tears in your eyes. Still, she hit play. She wasn’t even watching the girls, instead watching you give your all but still seem….off.  When the girls tossed you into the air, you missed all your marks. When they caught you and placed you down, you froze causing Betty to bump into you. You stayed frozen in place until Cheryl paused the music. “Y/N! What is going on with you?”
Cheryl took a step towards you. Her commanding voice was gone. The tears were back in your eyes and you seemed to be shaking. “Okay, you’re officially freaking me out, Y/N. Is this about lunch? I’m sorry I snapped at you, okay? You’re my -”
“I’m going to be sick.” You announced before darting off the field. There was no sarcasm to your voice. No anger. Only a terrified certainty. You had never been angry with her at all. You were ill.
“Toni, take the girls through the routine again. I’ll be back.” Cheryl took off after her friend, prepared to hold back her hair like you had done for her so many times before. Before she rounded the corner, she stopped. You were standing next to a large trash can, gripping both sides tightly. But you weren’t alone. Sweet Pea was standing next to you, rubbing your back.
“This is mortifying,” You sobbed, tears streaming down your face. Instead of bounding in to take over, her first instinct, Cheryl stayed where she was, peering around the corner.  “You do not have to stay for this. I should - I should - ”
You gagged and leaned over the trash can but didn’t vomit. Sweet Pea brushed a few tears from your eyes as you leaned back. “This is nothing. Fangs’ seventeen birthday? That was gross. Trust me. Like the exorcist.”
You laughed and then groaned again, placing one hand over your stomach. “I should have let you take me to the nurse in fifth period. You were right. I’ve been feeling sick all day. I didn’t even tell Cheryl, I just got snippy about her stupid salad. Ugh. That salad.”
You leaned over the trash can again and this time, everyone came up. Cheryl shuttered but watched as Sweet Pea stood by, brushing your hair out of your face and rubbing your back. It was sweet…in a disgusting sort of way. When you leaned back, he brushed the sweat from your forehead. He didn’t even flinch when you whipped the back of your mouth and spit. Instead, he pulled a water bottle out of his backpack and offered it to you. It was used, Cheryl noted, being half empty but it was a dire circumstance. You rinsed out your mouth and leaned again him, giving him your weight. “I think you have a fever. You feel any better?”
“I feel disgusting and queasy and embarrassed and I never want to show my face to the River Vixens of you ever again,” you confessed. Sweet Pea shook his head.
“Nah. That’s okay. You don’t need to do that. I’d miss your face.” Despite being disgusting and ill, you smiled at him. Cheryl felt her heart swell. It was so awkwardly cute. “I uh - I guess I’m trying to say that I don’t really care about my grades but I’ve been studying with you a lot. Like, I’ve been passing math for weeks and I’m still asking for your help. You know?”
“So you weren’t just in it for your love of learning,” you teased. Then your smile faltered and you brought your hand to your stomach. “I don’t know how I’m going to walk home. Ugh. I’m gonna lose it on the Cooper’s lawn.”
“I’ll drive you. Your mom gonna be home?” You shook your head. Your mother was rarely ever home. Often staying at the studio until 10 PM or later. It allowed you a lot of sleepovers but Cheryl knew you were often lonely, especially when you were sick. And Cheryl had been spending most of her time with Toni lately. “We’ll stop at the drugstore and I’ll grab a few things. I got you, okay?”
Sweet Pea wrapped his arm around your shoulder and guided you away from the foul-smell bin. Cheryl returned to her squad and grabbed her phone from her bag off the bench - she was the only one allowed to have her phone on them at rehearsal. Toni was leading the girls into a much smoother looking routine. “Ladies! I knew you had it in you. You are the Vixens I knew you could be. Take 5 - Nay, take 10. Then we’ll run it from the top and I’ll let you watch my solo.”
Cheryl joined Toni and wrapped her arms around her and kissed the top of her head. Toni hugged her tightly. When she pulled back, she asked “How’s our girl? You two make up?”
“Let’s just say, you’re much more intuitive and smart than the world gives you credit for. Mi amour, you deserve all the credit in the world.”
Cheryl kissed Toni firmly before pulling out her phone and texting you three words.
                                          Seal. Of. Approval.

Tumblr media
✩⡱ other rules !
i will not write one-shots or full-length fics by request. however, i may write one-shots or series based on my own ideas if i am feeling inspired. otherwise, i will only take requests for headcanons, drabbles, and concepts or thoughts from you that i can turn into blurbs.
i will write for readers of any gender, but if you do not specify the reader's gender in your request, i will automatically make them gender-neutral, so as to keep my writing as inclusive as possible.
my inspiration tends to come and go a lot, so if it takes me a while to get your request out, i genuinely apologize in advance, but i do ask you to not be rude and try to pressure me into writing faster.
please be polite when sending in requests - i do not ask for a lot, just a simple "please" and "thank you" so i know you don't think of me as just a writing machine.
on that note, please try to put some kind of general plot into your requests ! not too much, since headcanons and drabbles are meant to be shorter, but i generally need more than just "x character with fluff". also, please put the type of request, or if it's just a thought or concept, in your ask !
you can request for any character in the list above, as long as their name isn't struck through, but if you want to know if i write for another character in any of these fandoms that isn't listed, feel free to ask ! i might still not write them, but i promise i'll try my best !

Byronic Hero Bracket Round Of 128 Batch B #4
Cheryl Blossom from Riverdale vs. Cable from Marvel
Tumblr media
Reasons under the cut (spoilers for both)
(All sources from TV Tropes)
Cheryl Blossom:
Cheryl Blossom is an intelligent Ice Queen, intuitive, and a huge narcissist and snobbish Attention Whore prone to violent mood swings and switching sides at the blink of an eye. She has a domineering personality, but she is also extremely emotionally dependent on people, such her her brother, Jason and Toni Topaz. No wonder she is such an emotional mess, she is the heir to an aristocratic family, and both of her parents are abusive and cold and didn't provide Cheryl with much love and support. Her twin brother Jason, who she was extremely close to, ended up being murdered by her own father. After his death, she completely lost it and never recovered emotionally. Cheryl is also a Goth girl wo loves to quip, pull most macabre pranks on people and has a passion for painting.
Previously Beaten: Dark Pit
Cable:
Cable started out like this, as he was a time traveler from a time in constant strife and harbored a ruthless nature, though he has since gone from this to standard Anti-Hero territory. This tends to be Depending on the Writer. When operating alone Cable has no problem using any means at his disposal to achieve his goals, such as torturing Captain America prior to Avengers vs. X-Men. But he has a habit of teaming up with morality pets to rein himself in, not unlike a certain other time traveler.
Previously Beaten: Ralph Touchett

✨Teaser: In Technicolor✨
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So some of you may know this, but my next fic that was set to release was originally called “Ballad of a Teenage Dream” and was a Wednesday x Skam crossover that showcased all the highs and lows of high school and the growing pains that come with the transition from teenager to young adult.
Well that story has been reworked, overhauled, and given new life.
I present to you my high school dramady, In Technicolor.
Set in Los Angeles, California, the story follows two groups of friends as their worlds collide. A modern spin on the social dynamics of Romeo and Juliet where two factions are warring but cannot remember why or why their bitter rivalry is so important to their identity, In Technicolor highlights the feuding of the wealthy and the everyday citizens to show the consequences that come from stripping culture and history from the city streets in the name of gentrification. It explores the complex relationships of families on either side of the fence to reveal that wealth does not always bring happiness. And finally, at the center of it all, the complicated friendships and relationships of the members of these two groups as they meld into one.
For our East LA champions, we follow the Addams siblings and their mismatched group of skateboarders, graffiti artists, musicians, and street racers.
For our Palisades elite, we focus on the Blossoms and Galpin’s—two families from extreme wealth that are not entirely honest about what they show the world.
.
.
.
Important Story Information: If the visuals were not enough to give it away, this story will be a crossover with a different fandom. Entering the mix is the ensemble from Riverdale. I do want to caution readers now, there will be crossover pairings, character retcon on both sides, ageing up, ageing down, and changes to character personalities.
One such example is that Wednesday isn’t allergic to color and isn’t entirely unapproachable. She smiles and laughs but only when around those she trusts like her family and friends. Pugsley has been aged up and is Wednesday’s twin brother. My face claim for this version of Pugsley is Xolo Mariduẽna and I have made Pugsley (who also will be going by “Lee”) more confident and hotheaded with some snark and sass. Second to that, my face claim for Pubert “Bertie” Addams is Malachi Barton and Pubert/Bertie will be one year younger than his siblings—the twins Wednesday and Pugsley age 17 and in their senior year and Bertie age 16 entering his junior year.
On the Riverdale side of the crossover, I have made certain changes that I don’t want to reveal just yet for Archie’s character. That surprise will come soon enough because next I will be posting moodboards for specific couples that will be at the center of this story. But one change I will discuss now to get it out there to avoid hate comments and harassment is the issue of is Cheryl bi or is she a lesbian. In my story, she’s bi and will be paired with a male lead. I understand that the actress for her character went back and forth on Cheryl’s orientation but, to me, Cheryl reads like a chaotic bisexual that goes back and forth on her identity because being bi is confusing enough. And as someone who is bi, I would like to see more representation and fiction for people like myself because fandoms are so quick to erase bisexuality and pansexuality and criticize us when we speak up about it. So in this story, Cheryl is bi and she has broken up with her most recent girlfriend before meeting her next partner who is a man. And it’s fine.
If this upsets you, just swipe off of this post. Don’t leave mean comments or take digs at me because I’m not for any of this fandom infighting nonsense. It’s fiction and these characters can be whatever you want them to be in your stories.
However, if you don’t mind Cheryl liking both men and women, you don’t have an opinion either way, or your curious to see how this’ll pan out, stay tuned. I’d love to share this story with you. All are welcome so long as things stay civil and breezy.
So with that, I look forward to updating with the couple’s board and then the first chapter titlecard along with the chapter itself. Until then, stay lovely and stay groovy.💜

--- reader is the 'invisible' younger sister of Cheryl and Jason and thus, will be heavily characterized (possibly the first OC on this blog if/when I write this fic I have in mind just so nobody gets in a tizzy or anything). Story is canon divergent, set after Jason's death. Blossom family and all their toxic glory for obvious reasons. Sexual tension if you squint and a very public declaration of her feelings for Sweetpea which are returned by him. two parter. reader has confidence issues as a result of her family and the way they treat her (ignoring her, neglect, they only give a crap when appearances need to be upkept) + is hinted at being far less outgoing and a little more withdrawn than Cheryl.
↪ taglist, babes
--- my taglist is [here] if you'd like to be on it. huge hug to my bestie @tbmunson because we both needed this, tbh.

You spot the giant of a South Sider easily and you make your way straight over to the pool tables, tapping his shoulder impatiently until he turns to face you.
Sweetpea throws down his pool stick and whirls around and this puts him body to body with you. Dark brows knit together and he studies you in confusion. “What do you want, hm?” he questions as he steps closer, the space between your two bodies filled as he towers over you and he smirks. “Aren’t you a little lost, red?”
“Nope.” you answer quietly as you will your heart down out of your throat. Over in a corner, someone tries to start a fight and you tense up, eyes darting in the direction of the commotion. Sweetpea picks up on your tension and he nods to a door at the side of the Wyrm that leads into an alleyway. When you don’t seem to pick up on his nod, he grabs you by the arm roughly and wrangles you out the door and once the door is closed behind you both, he steps up to you and before he can stop himself, one of his rough,massive hands is lingering at your hip. He studies you intently for a second or two. “You came all this way… Cat’s got your tongue now, red?”
“I need you to come with me.” your words tumble out in a rush and Sweetpea laughs before he can stop himself. And he’s pointing at himself, an amused smirk is forming. “You want me… to come over to the North Side with you, red? Am I hearing that right? For what reason, huh?”
This is where you trip and stumble over your words because honestly, behind Sweetpea being the one person you suspect would scare your mother Penelope Blossom and behind the fact that Sweetpea kind of owes you.. Something, you’ve been letting him cheat off your classwork and you’ve been ‘tutoring him’ for weeks now, well… There’s the bigger fact that you may or may not be falling for the rough around the edges Serpent.
“Try that again. Breathe this time.” Sweetpea is teasing you now, the smirk on his face even bigger. You give him a dirty look and roll your eyes but you go quiet and take a deep breath and you start from the beginning. “As you know, my family has their maple ceremony today.. And Mother is trying to force me into some bizarre triangle with my sister and Archie that I’d really rather… Not. I mean not that Archie’s a bad guy, he’s just not…” you trail off and roll your eyes at yourself because what you want to say is that Archie Andrews isn’t the boy standing in front of you right now but you know you can’t say it. “If you do this one itty bitty favor for me, I’ll…” you tap your chin thoughtfully and smile a little. “I’ll do your homework for the rest of the year.”
Sweetpea snickers to himself and rubs his chin. “Lemme get this straight… You want me.. To go to this stupid ceremony with you. I’m not..” he trails off because internally, his brain is screaming at him to accept and tell you that you don’t have to do anything. This is a ‘dream’ scenario for him as of late. See, he’s gotten a crush on you -he’d rather die before admitting it, but the fact remains. 
“You can come as you are. I don’t care what any of them think, they can all kiss my ass. Just… come with me, please? Look, I know I’m not my…” you go quiet because Sweetpea is studying you intently. Biting his lip and this draws you into another one of your silly little dazes and gets you all distracted because all you can think about is how much you just want to kiss him. Hold his hand. Take care of the guy, honestly because someone needs to.
The sappy thought has you tensing just a little more. And he’s pacing in front of you, dragging thick fingers through jet colored hair as he grumbles to himself and tries to puzzle out exactly why in the hell you’re asking him to attend some stupid maple ceremony when you could ask literally anyone else in Riverdale. He’s also wondering why it is you always seem to think that your older sister Cheryl is better than you somehow because honestly, she isn’t.
And maybe it’s that look in your eyes when you were about to say that you weren’t her, maybe it’s his crush on you, maybe it’s a bit of both, but he winds up chuckling quietly. “I can come just like this, huh? You realize that your parents are gonna take one look at me and have me thrown out, right?”
“They won’t. They can’t. There will be too many of the other family members there, they’re always so worried about their precious stupid image.” you mumble. “Please? It’s just the one time, I swear. And you don’t.. You won’t owe me anything, I’ll owe you. All you have to do is tell me what you want.”
Sweetpea steps closer to you. Dangerously close. He’s gazing down at you, lost in thought. Drawn into the milk chocolate color of your eyes. “Oh, trust me, princess. I know I wouldn’t owe you anything. You make deals with the devil often?” he questions, the firm of his tone has you squeezing your thighs together just a little. Perhaps it’s not the best way to answer but before you can stop yourself, you’re shaking your head hard enough that your red curtain bangs are falling into your eyes and you’ve answered quietly, “Only you, Sweetpea. I-I.. I promise.” you stammer a little because you’re both nervous and desperate for him to see what you’ve been doing terrible at hiding for months now.
You can’t keep pretending you’re not attracted to the Serpent from the wrong side of the tracks or that there’s some magnets pull to him.
“Please?” you ask quietly, big brown eyes fixing on him as you give a pleading look. Eyes that he knows already are his undoing because when you look at him, he feels all these different things at once. And the amount of fights he’s gotten into for you -and over you, since your paths crossed over the summer, well… He knows he already considers you his, even if he’d rather die a thousand slow and painful deaths than own up to it in any way.
But this thing you’re asking him to do seems really important and it’s not like he has anything better to do today, his mother’s out of town again, she’s gone a lot more lately… And he does enjoy pissing off North Siders, especially ones of prominence like the rest of the Blossom family.
“Okay, alright. Fine.” Sweetpea pretends to be annoyed but on the inside, his heart is about to beat right out of his chest. “We gotta go to this stupid thing now or can I finish my pool game? I was winning and I need the money, Red.”
“You can finish. I’ll stay and watch. Nobody really wants me at the ceremony, they just want me at the dinner.” you mutter. He looks angry for a split second but you sigh and give a weak shrug. “My sister and brother… They were the favorites.”
The words have him clenching his fist just a little and when you’re not paying any attention, he stares at you. You’re probably the only decent member of the Blossom family, naturally the rest of them would hate you. He knows that Jason didn’t, Jason looked out for you because he’s seen Jason fight a South Sider or two when he was still alive because they were trying to scare you by being overly gross and aggressive on a drop-off night.
He hurries through the rest of the pool game and as soon as his winnings are in the pocket of his leather jacket, he makes his way over to where you stand, waiting by the door and he chuckles, flashing a cocky smirk. “Let’s get this show on the road, huh?”
“Y-yeah.”
“If you want this to seem real, princess.. You might wanna work on being less nervous around me. You do want to piss them off, right?”
You knit your brows together in confusion. “No, I..”
“You what, princess?” he’s leaning in closer.
“I didn’t wanna sit there alone.” you admit in a whisper quiet tone. “At least when you’re around to argue with, I don’t feel so invisible.”
Your words have his breath catching in his throat and he’s glad you aren’t looking so you can’t see the slightly stunned expression on his face.
“There you are! Get upstairs and get dressed.” Penelope Blossom rarely uses a kind tone with any of her children but when it comes to you, her tone is even less kind than with your older sister and deceased older brother. 
Penelope’s gaze settles on Sweetpea and she wrinkles her nose in disdain. To his credit, Sweetpea is unbothered. “Who the hell are you?”
“He’s with me, Mother. He’s my date for the dinner.”
“Nonsense. You’ll be escorted by Archie Andrews. We’ve discussed this. You and your sister will be escorted by Archie.”
“No.” you can feel your nails beginning to leave crescents in your palm.
“I’ll have him taken care of. Run along and get dressed now.” Penelope Blossom gives you a smirk.
“You’re not going to do anything, Mother!”
It’s the first time Sweetpea has ever heard you get loud and he’s watching the mother-daughter standoff with thinly veiled interest now because considering that you asked him to come along because for some reason, you’d rather be around him than alone, well… He’s more than a little curious.
And lately you have been acting more… Sweet towards him. You’ve opened up to him more, he knows that some of the things you’ve let slip during your tutoring sessions are not things you’ve likely ever told anyone else.
It’s the first time anyone’s ever felt better or safer with him present. It’s the first time he’s been wanted for any real reason. Even his own mother goes to lengths to avoid him for the most part, she always tells him he reminds her too much of a father she says he’ll never know.
“Your daughter wants me here. I’m not leavin.”
“Oh? You think so, young man? I’ll have Mr. Keller on the phone and we’ll just see about that.”
“What’s the hold up?” Cheryl stands in the doorway, cozied up to Archie and you glance from your mother to your sister and then over at Sweetpea. Your mother rolls her eyes. “Your sister is being difficult, as usual.”
Cheryl’s gaze settles on you and she glances from you to Sweetpea, concern filling her eyes. “Why is there a Serpent in our house?”
“Because he’s here with me.”
Cheryl’s mouth falls open but she’s quick to close it and smirk at Sweetpea. “What have you done to my sister? How have you wormed your way in, hm?”
Sweetpea starts to speak up but you beat him to it. “He hasn’t.” you smile up at him as you fall into place at his side and lean into him. “I like him. He’s sweet. I wanted him to be here today.”
Cheryl snorts in disbelief.
Archie shuffles his feet uncomfortably and when your father catches sight of Sweetpea, all hell breaks loose.
“Yeah, I’m gonna leave now.” Sweetpea grumbles to himself as he turns to walk out the door and maybe it’s the fact that you’re just sick to death of all of them and they’ve managed to chase away the only boy you’ve ever really cared about at all, maybe it’s the fact that you do care about him and you’re desperate to show him and avoid losing him, either way.
“Everybody shut up! Now!” your shrill cry has all your immediate family pausing to look at you.
Seeing that you have the floor, you can’t stop yourself and years of bitterness and hurt, they all come pouring out of you. “None of you really care about me. We all know I was the mistake. Mother and father only had me to save their shitty marriage. They blame me because it didn’t work. I’m little more than the help to any of you, the only time I’m ‘family’ is when the rest of these narcissistic snobby assholes fly in for this STUPID waste of time ceremony and honestly, I wish I was the one who died and not Jason most of the time. I love him, alright? And if the choice comes down to all of you and that Serpent ‘scum’ as you call him, I’m choosing him. I’d rather have nothing and be alone or maybe I’ll be lucky enough to be happy with him than have everything and be stuck here with all of you where I know I’m not wanted.”
“You’re going to the convent.” your mother steps closer and she’s about to grab you by the arm but you snatch your arm away and glare at her in anger as you shake your head. “You won’t do it. If you do it, I’ll find a way to ruin you. Try me, mother. I dare you.”
“Monday morning, little lady.” your father threatens. He tries to grab you too but you step away and cluck your tongue in disgust. “And you, sir… How would your precious family feel to know that you steal from them, hm? How would you like everyone to know all your dirty little secrets? Because I’ll tell it, all of it.”
“I do care!” Cheryl insists, pleading. On the verge of tears because she sees this as you abandoning her, another loss to endure. “I love you. I just…” she stumbles over her words and you laugh as you shake your head. “Nobody has to do anything. Actually, I think what I’m going to do is go upstairs and pack my things. I’ll leave and then none of you will have to worry about ‘fitting me in’ anymore. Everybody wins. I can finally be happy and be myself  alone or with the boy I really love and all of you don’t have to pretend to give a shit or squeeze me in when you want to look like the perfect little family. Either way, no matter what happens next, I just know I’m done with all of you and there’s nothing any of you can do or say to change my mind. All the threats in the world won’t scare me. You can do whatever you want to try and get even but I’m leaving.”
“You get back down here this instant young lady!”
“Careful, mother.. I may be the quiet one but I know enough to ruin everything… Do you really want that?” you snap back before shoving through a throng of people gathered to watch the scene as it unfolds. You’re rushing out the door and you’re just hoping that you haven’t spent too much time making a scene, that you can stop Sweetpea before he leaves and you don’t have another chance to get everything out in the open, -if it’s not already too late. 
You’re halfway to the door of the mansion and Sweetpea steps out in front of you. He’s staring down at you in shock because he’s still trying to process what you’ve just said and everything you’ve done. “You.. Did you mean any of that, princess? Or was this just a ruse to make them angry so you could leave?”
“I don’t say things I don’t mean, Sweetpea.” you mumble the words quietly, you don’t dare to look up at him and somehow, your breath hangs in your throat. He clears his throat and continues to stare. “You’re really gonna walk out of here and leave all this behind, red?”
“Mhm.”
“C’mon. If I hurry, I can get back for the last round of the tournament they started before we left.” Sweetpea slips an arm around you and you let him lead you out the front doors of your parents mansion.
And as you go, it feels as if the weight of a thousand lifetimes has been lifted off your shoulder.
Once the two of you are outside and next to his motorcycle, he steps closer to you, one of his hands on either of your hips. “You know what you did in there, right?”
“Yeah, I finally told my family to fuck out of my life.” you mumble and he shakes his head. You tilt yours, looking up at him in confusion.
“You just pledged yourself to a Serpent, little red. You sure you wanna do this? Ya know I don’t have shit… Right?” Sweetpea steps closer, gazing down at your lips hungrily. “You chose me… Nothing.. Over all of this.. Them? You sure this isn’t something you’re gonna regret, princess?”
His heart is about to beat out of his chest.
It takes you just long enough to answer that he’s telling himself you’re about to change your mind and go back inside, play the good little daughter. He’s surprised when you don’t.
“I don’t love them. They don’t love me. Look, if you.. If you don’t want me around..” you bite your lip and take a deep breath, “Just take me to the train station or something. I have money to get away. I’m sorry you got dragged into this, I just got so sick of hearing the way they were talking about you and threatening me. And of course their first solution is to send me to some fucking convent, it’s easier on them to pretend I don’t exist this way.. I.. I shouldn’t have dragged you into this, I just… You make me feel safe, okay? I.. I feel less alone with you? I’m.. I’m sorry, I’m so sorry.” you’re tripping over your words and squirming, your feet shuffling against the snowy covered flagstone in front of the mansion.
You’re starting to walk away because you think it’ll be better than making Sweetpea do anything more than he’s already done because he’s already done more than anyone else has just by agreeing to show up, but he catches up to you, grabbing your waist from behind to turn you so that you face him.
“Will you stop doing that?”
“What?”
“Apologizing because you exist. You always do it and honestly, it bothers me, alright? Look..” Sweetpea steps up to you, his arms around your waist awkwardly just so you can’t take off again because he doesn’t want you just vanishing on him too and he’s starting to realize that maybe it’s more he feels than just the strong desire to get you pinned beneath him and moaning his name over and over. Because he’s always fighting anybody who even looks at you lately. And he’s always got to be around you, the little tutoring sessions in the secrecy of the library are something he looks forward to now instead of dreading them.
It hits him and he takes a shaky breath, “Fuck.” he mumbles as the realization forms. He’s fallen for you at some point along the way. He doesn’t want you to vanish. If you’re going to do this, he’d rather have you with him than lose you -and the chance to make a move, for good.
His hand tangles in your hair and he’s leaning down a little, his mouth on a collision course with your own. Your mouths crash together clumsy and awkward, but it’s sweet. It’s the first real thing that he’s felt in a while and as his tongue drags over the shape of your lips and slips between them to dominate yours, he mutters in awe, “I don’t wanna lose you too, okay? You’re gonna come back with me.”
“O-okay.” you mutter quietly as your mouth falls open and you melt against him completely. “Can we just go now? Please?”
“Anything you want, princess.” Sweetpea mumbles, picking you up to sit you on the back of his motorcycle.

Personal thoughts and meditations upon the occasion of the Riverdale series finale. 
Probably like four people are going to read this but I feel compelled to write it out anyway. This show has genuinely been a massive part of my life. I watched the first episode because some high school friends encouraged me to (IRONICALLY, BRO). I was in high school when I started this show. Those friends of course long ago fell away, unable to continue, unable to wacth anymore, but I have kept the faith. All seven seasons. Every. Single. Episode.
I’m not even entirely sure what captivated me so much about the show. I loved the atmosphere of season 1. I genuinely wanted to find out who killed Jason Blossom. Was genuinely fucked up by episode 1 x 12 and the first season finale.
I have such fond memories of watching the first season. I distinctly remember a road-trip I Tok with my friends the summer of 2017, and joking about  maple syrup drug empires and the “weirdo” line back when that was the wildest scene on the show. Joking about how sick of the song ‘Believer’ by Imagine Dragons (2017) we were. 
And then I decided to get involved in a fandom for the first time in a couple of years, and so I revived my old Tumblr, and I began Posting. And reading posts.  
That was my last summer after high school and I was so nervous about college but this show and this fandom helped me get through it. My freshman year I lived in a dorm, and if you wanted to watch TV you had to go down to this common room, so every Thursday I would go down there like an hour ahead of time and occupy the place to make sure the remote was in my hands by 7 PM. A few times I failed, and I missed an episode because of it. But rarely! 
I remember that slowly dawning feeling as season 2 progressed. Scrolling my Tumblr feed and slowly seeing people come to the realization: “wait…is it just me or does this show actually suck.” Was kind of frustrating at the time, realizing that the writers just like…were bad, but in retrospect? Beautiful. Incredible. Legendary. 
And you could even say that’s where the fun really began. Yes, there’s plenty to hate, but also Riverdale is brilliant. The show of all time. For real. No other show has done it like Riverdale. They just haven't, and they never will. The age of the cable television teen drama is ending, and what a hell of a last hurrah Riverdale has been.
The Red Circle. Jingle Jangle. The Gargoyle King. Edgar Evernever and his fantastic rocket. Bret Weston Wallis and Donna Sweett (genuinely cannot say their names without giggling). Jughead getting hit in the head with a rock and faking his death for like…some reason? I genuinely can’t remember, something to do with the Hardy Brothers idk. Tabitha sprinkling the devil with the tears of the Virgin Mary. The normies can laugh all they want about “epic highs and lows” but do they remember the even funnier lines like “if there’s no wedding, that means the gargoyle king has won” or “word of my exploits serving Nick his comeuppance…” THEY NEVER WILL. ONLY THE TRUE FAITHFUL UNDERSTAND. 
And is silly as it all was, I have genuine affection for these characters. Like Betty, Veronica, Jughead, Archie, Cheryl, Toni, actually mean a lot to me. YES they’re fake but I want the best for them (and for Beronica to be canon but you know we can’t win them all). I’m genuinely grateful that this show has existed and been a part of my life for the past six years. 
Moreover, I credit this show for seriously getting into writing. I’ve actually written almost a million words of Riverdale fanfiction. Much of it will never see the light of day, but it exists. Maybe I even have one or two left in me, I don’t know. At the very least I’d like to finish a few uncompleted fics. But I’ve also branched out. Since I started seriously writing in 2017, I’ve also finished several original manuscripts, and who knows, maybe one day I’ll get one published. Stranger things have happened. 
So, thanks Roberto.
And thanks to all of the very cool people I’ve run into in this fandom. I honestly wish I’d gotten to know most of you better, but them’s the breaks. Hopefully this isn’t weird but I’m going to tag a few people in particular. 
@village-skeptic. I know you’re not in the fandom anymore (lucky you), but thank you for, once upon a time, reading every one of the 200,000+ words of a 17-year-old kid’s turgid, indulgent, Riverdale Spanish Civil War fan fiction. I never, ever would have finished that story without you, and I credit it with giving me the confidence to keep writing, and in fact to write everything I’ve written since then. You’re brilliant and awesome. 
@satelliteinasupernova. Thank you for also reading Interbellum (are we noticing a pattern), and more importantly for all of your wonderful drawings. INCLUDING fanart of some of my fics. You have no idea how happy that Strange Death of Elizabeth Cooper piece made me. You rule. 
@sullypants. You were a perennial presence on my feed. Always wonderful to see. I love your taste in art, and I love those ‘penguin classics’ covers you made for a few of my fics. Thank you also for beta reading a few fics for me back in the glory days. And thank you for chatting with me a couple times over the years, including a few times when I was in quite unhappy places. 
@stillhidden. I’m not sure if we’ve ever actually talked, but you like or reblog everything I post and it makes me feel like I’m not just shouting into the void. Same goes for @frauleinfunf Thank God for dutiful mutuals. 
@sonyascomet. I can’t remember when I started following you but you have a really good sense of humor. And I’ll always remember when you kept posting about “Greg” for Succession and I, not knowing anything about Succession, kept imagining Greg Heffley. 
@stillhidden thank you for your world-weary Riverdale posts. You truly understand fandom like few others.
@halcooper. Your devotion to the neglected parents of Riverdale is truly admirable. Every time I see Lochlyn Munro in some weird low budget horror movie I’ll think of you.
I hope I didn’t forget anyone who would be offended by my forgetting, but I doubt it. 
All this to say this show has been a genuinely huge part of my life for six years. SIX YEARS. I graduated college, my God. I wish I could say I became a millionaire or a successful author in that time, but nah. Maybe one day, but for now I’m just kind of vibing. And unfortunately, I’ll have to vibe without Riverdale from now on. 
But as I sit myself down to watch the very last episode of this show, I remind myself that we���ll always have the memories. And I’ll always be an unapologetic Riverdale enjoyer. As a great man once said, snakes don’t shed their skins so easily.
