== Love Notes ==

Hey lovelies.

Have you had any water lately? Did you get to go outside and take a walk? Please remember that you need breaks sometimes, even if they're only a few minutes here or there.

You deserve rest-- and when things get rough, your brain needs a couple minutes to reset. Remember to take care of yourself and practice some self-care.

Self care means fun too!

Do something you enjoy that makes you smile. I'm not a fan of sticker/sticky things-- but I know a lot of people who love googly-eyes so I figured this was appropriate.

Anyway, gnight/gday crew, have a lovely one.

== Daily Darby / Tonight's Taika ==

I think I've done this Darby one on these recaps before, but I needed to have a theme tonight, and the them is well, I think you know. Yes that is Taika in the stash, from "Boy".

[jupitermelichios]

so you've probably seen the news that riverdale ended with the main 4 in an actual, canonical, poly relationship

and that's amazing for a bunch of reasons, including the fact that the number of canon poly relationships on tv are miniscule and also it brings the number of canonically straight main cast members down to 1. Ethel is legitimately the show's token straight representation. love that for her

but to get the full impact of that news, you really also need to know that in order for the polycule to form:

Jughead's transdimensional angel girlfriend has to destroy multiple other timelines to create a new stable timeline for the polycule to live in. timelines destroyed include the one where jughead is immortal and trapped forever in a bunker underneath riverdale, and one where tony and fangs's magical timetravelling gay baby is fighting an evil wizard for control of a train full of evil ghosts

Jughead's magical transdimensional angel girlfriend then returns to the newly created main timeline, and restores the main cast's memories of all the other timelines, which she does by forcing them to watch the show riverdale. That is not a joke or a metaphor she even goes to the trouble to bring a colour tv back to the 1950s so they can watch in colour, except for Clay and Julian, because they did not exist in any of the previous timelines and they're sad about it and refuse to watch a show they're not in.

(Well, Julian technically did exist in the original timeline, but only as a ghost possessing a haunted doll, which doesn't really count)

(Also for some reason as well as the main cast, she makes dilton doily watch it, despite his only contributions to the show being a) dying as a human sacrifice in the og timeline, b) trying to blow up the planet and then dying because of it in the rivervale timeline, and c) gay kevin telling people he has the biggest dick in the 1950s tlmeline, and honestly, I feel like it would be kinder to just not show him any of that)

(ethel does not get to watch riverdale, because she did the only sensible thing any riverdale character has ever done and fucked off to a normal town to have an actual life, because as well as being the token straight character, she's also the token sane one)

After watching Riverdale, all of the main cast except Jughead and Betty decide it sucks and they hate it, and ask tabby to rewipe their memories and only give them the cute bits and not all the serial killers and shit, because the writers have run out of time for subtle metaphors and they weren't sure the audience had fully grasped that the entirely last season of the show is a weird metacommentary on the criticisms people have of the show riverdale so they're just straight up going to have archie andrews look straight to camera and say that the show should have been more like the comics

also I have no idea how only showing them the happy bits works, because that removes 90% of the entire plot so I assume they just have a bunch of completely out of context sex scenes and meals at the diner and nothing else. possibly also some musical numbers, idk if I'd count those as happy memories personally

Betty and Jug chose to keep their memories of the Gargoyle King and Betty's 2 long-lost secret gay serial killer brothers because they're edgy (and also because the writers are annoyed at all the people who say the show should be more like the comics, so they have the smartest characters say they liked the actually and everyone else is being a wimp about all the serial killers, because again, we have run out of time for subtlety)

Having had his memories restored, Jug's like "oh hi tabitha, my secret transdimensional angel girlfriend, I haven't seen you for months, I've really missed you. I'm so glad you're you're back. i love you so much"

And she responds by telling him that she'd chosen to write herself out of the timeline when she fixed in, and she has to return to the great big diner in the sky (not a joke, heaven is a diner in the riverdale universe and, it is heavily implied, also in our universe, so that's something to look forward to), so she freezes time halfway through kissing him and just nopes out of time and space. which is also how I would handle all break ups if I had angel powers tbh

since jug is now single, and all 4 of them just got multiple timeline's worth of fucking one another mainlined straight into their brains, the main 4 decide to all start dating

(they are probably inspired to do this in part by betty's sister, who in the new timeline is a burlesque performer who's stage name is Polly Amorous)

As far as I can tell from the last episode, they tell gay kevin about this and literally no one else, for reasons known only to themselves

also genuinely can't tell if this was the writers wanting a poly relationship for them, or if they just couldn't be bothered with the internet slap fights that would have followed them picking individual monogomous ships to be endgame

they also, hilariously, refuse to say that archie and jug are dating, I assume due to network restrictions, despite archie being canonically bi at this point, so betty's just like 'well sometimes I go to veronica's and we fuck, and the boys do... something we're not going to talk about'

the final episode of the show is a flash forward where as a now old betty is dying, jughead's ghost shows her memories of their teens, in which it's reveal that she has just straight up forgotten about being in a poly relationship

literally she looks at her teen self and is like "wow, I seem weirdly close to veroica jughead and archie" and Jug's ghost has to be like "because we were dating. how do you not remember that we were dating? what the hell? did I mean nothing to you?!"

also old betty specifically seeks out reggie and is like "hey you know how me and you dated, and you and veronica were together for years in multiple timelines, and you archie keep declaring your undying love for one another and nearly fucking, well we're all dating and we specifically decided not to invite you, sucks to be you" and walks away and I have no idea why she did it. justice for reggie

anyway RIP to the greatest television show ever made, it was so gay and so deranged and so meta, and there really will never be anything quite like it again

#reggie never did anything wrong in his life ever #yes including that time he was a drug dealer #riverdale #truely The show of all time #i want the i'm a weirdo speech on engraved on my tombstone #people look at me like i'm insane when I tell them it's all a metaphor #but seriously #it's all metaphors all the way down #people ask me a lot what riverdale is about #and now that it's ended #i can officially confirm #cosmic horror #riverdale is cosmic horror #and i'm not even joking about that #the final 2 seasons of the show are about characters gaining meta knowledge of the story they're in and going insane because of it #but who are the old gods in this cosmology you may be asking? #you #you are #the audience

[rustedpipe]

things that happened on degrassi but i make them about riverdale

they had cheryl say cuckoo bananas one time, zig novak was heraldo, and also vanessa morgan was mike dallas's baby mama so like clearly there's existing connections here. and just like riverdale and degrassi writers-- i love putting characters into situations. so. without further ado..... things that happen on degrassi (tng & next class) that should've happened on riverdale.

betty pelts dodgeballs at jughead during gym class after he is vague about going on a date or not

dolly zoom on archie's face as fred says "your mom is gay"

betty and gay kevin have a fight while filming a fake commercial for unisex cologne for class

^ this with gay kevin

reggie does elaborate business deals with locker trading so that veronica can have the best one

archie sending veronica flowers with a card that says ”you rock! xoxo archie”

jughead choking and needing the heimlich but refusing to let gay kevin give him the heimlich because it would mean gay kevin has to touch him.

betty getting into an actual violent physical fight with blood with a random girl at school

^ okay go watch this video right now you only need to watch like the first minute exactly. the rest is completely optional. i have several scenarios in mind here:

- idea one is gay kevin having issues with fangs for the billionth time and so when in doubt kiss archie? - idea two is something jarchie related either betty or veronica is the dylan here . - IDEA THREE IS DYLAN=JUGHEAD GAY MARCO=ARCHIE. SO WHEN IN DOUBT KISS REGGIE?! - but also. the very first episode of riverdale is veronica so when in doubt you kiss betty. okay like realistically the scene is not like that but i think they shouldve let betty say "so when in doubt you kiss betty." for me personally. she would not fucking say that but i want her to

veronica and jughead go to the college admissions fair while extremely high.

RAS plays a similar role to kevin smith and gives advice to cheryl about being gay

kangs toxic poker game. what more can i say

veronica: as you and jughead’s closest friends- jughead: oh actually i don’t really like you. veronica: SHH!

natasha bedingfield performs at prom. archie gets to dance his heart out and cry a little to unwritten. and pocket full of sunshine woah oh

toni gets so much into vampire books that she makes out with cheryl and thinks about vampires too hard and bites her on the neck (this would be a great reference to vanessa morgan's time on another canadian teen show my babysitter's a vampire and also i think we should let toni be a little crazy for fun)

lgbt mixer at la bonne nuit. nothing crazy happens on the degrassi episode but i just wish it had happened on riverdale. like maybe veronica and kevin sing same love or born this way. (again that did not happen on degrassi just using the fact they did an lgbt mixer at the teen speakeasy as a jumping off point.)

when jughead gets hired by tabitha at pops, he immediately burns down the restaurant. they then go to a casino in niagra falls and get vegas-style married

cheryl adopts a pig (that later destroys her house) instead of coping with being alone

reggie attends a meeting about homophobia brought on by locker room bullying and someone explains the definition of internalized homophobia and he says out loud "im a homophobe" and starts crying

jughead poisons bret with stuff that makes you throw up. this involves cups being switched and a reference to roman history (but in the riverdale version betty supports and enables it)

jughead writes a story about a girl getting stalked who has a protective boyfriend trying to stop it but he makes the ending be that the boyfriend realizes he can never protect her from the stalker so he kills her. and betty is like dude um what that is insane. and hes genuinely like what it's just a story. later jughead ends up still not being able to figure out an ending and burns the script on stage while having a breakdown

they have to build rube goldberg machines for class. it doesnt matter who i just want this to be something

fp and alice wedding where bughead break up and get back together like five times about it

core four smokes weed during 2x14 The Hills Have Eyes (degrassi had an episode where teens were unsupervised in a cabin. Just Like.)

gay kevin does a gay musical production of romeo and juliet.

some film guy that jughead adores comes and does a guest lecture and so in order to impress the guy he smokes weed with chic and makes a terrible insane short film to show said film guy

timeskip jughead does mdma at an artsy party where people are very high and painting with their bodies on the walls and floors. in order to avoid his problems.

gay kevin wears a beret at least once

^ bughead texts

veronica sings triangle tra la le la by patsy cline while in the midst of one of her 'reggie or archie' moments

betty gets really into axe throwing with lesbians (the pretty poisons) in the woods

unfortunately i cannot find a video uploaded of gay tristan performing it but. gay kevin voice riverdale you make drama look! so! good!

veronica trying to tank her father's mayoral campaign by being gay with betty and outing hiram as a homophobe

reggie: for the last time i'm not gay. or homophobic. just missing my best bro....

jughead won't shut up in class so cheryl cuts off some of her hair and then asks jughead to hold the scissors for a sec. and then she raises her hand and tells the teacher jughead cut her hair

beronica has a heartfelt moment about admitting feelings for each other and in the middle of it reggie walks up to them with saddest look on his face and says "am i hotter than archie? be honest. actually don't." and then walks away

veronica comes out to avoid political backlash and the word gets around to hermione who tries to comfort her by saying "no one's gonna believe you're gay. it happens to all powerful women. even hillary"

cheryl and veronica have a fake trial in class over twitter beef

cheryl auditions for a boy part in a play directed by gay kevin. gay kevin initially says no, but cheryl points out that it should be about relating to the pain of the character, not gender. gay kevin agrees and says that he is going to play the part himself because no one understands what he's going through better than him, right?

i'm constructing a reality where fangs is dating gay kevin when he is in the infamous bus crash but instead of dying he goes into a coma. and gay kevin is loyally by his bedside until he snaps like three months in and hooks up with moose. the night he does that, fangs wakes up from said coma.

veronica, speaking to reggie: even though we're a toxic couple, i really miss you and i want our break to be over.

betty has a terrible reaction to weed and someone finds her sadly eating slices of bread from a bag saying “i thought the bread would make me less high but it isnt working”

and finally, and crucially, they should've done a shark in the water style promo for at least one of the seasons. thanks for tuning in.

A Look Into Our Hearts

Word Count: 522

Warnings: None

Pairings: Jacob Day x Influencer!Reader

Note: Hii! Sorry this took me absolutely forever. I’m not totally happy with it but this is my first time doing writing like this so it’s the best i can do, enjoy!

~~~

“Hi guys! It’s Jacob and Y/n here,” Jacob smiled, looking at you.

“And here’s what a day in our life looks like!”

“We both wake up fairly early, so we’ll make breakfast and then go to the gym.”

You set the camera down on the kitchen island while you prepared breakfast.

Jacob cut fruit for a smoothie while you made you both toast.

“We don’t really eat much, cause we’ll do that after the workout but we do need something to give us energy,” Jacob said.

The scene changed to Jacob filming you as you walked into the gym, and then a few sped up clips of your workout.

“Now we’ll shower and then we’ll relax until lunch!”

Another sped up clip of you both messing around with each other post shower, just in towels as you splashed each other with cold water. And then you two calmed down as you helped each other get ready for the day. Jacob helped you dry your hair and you helped him with his skin care.

Laying on his bed, you both turned the camera back on: “We’re gonna watch a movie and chill for about an hour, then we’ll go for lunch with everybody,” Jacob announced, cuddling you into his side. He filmed you with a fond smile, you’d fallen asleep not long after the camera had been turned off.

“Stop it!” You whine as you shoved Kristian away.

“C’mon Y/n! It’s enough!” He yelled, smiling cheekily.

“Now I know how Paige feels,” you groaned, shoving Kristian one more time.

“What? Do you guys hear anything?” He teased.

“I will cut your hair again Kristian, I did it once, don't think I won’t do it again!”

“You’re like a little ant, I’d step on you if Jacob wasn’t bigger than me,” he joked.

You rolled your eyes and pouted at Jacob, slapping Kristian’s sunburnt neck before smiling at the camera triumphantly.

You both didn’t film much of lunch, but filmed your trip to Target for groceries.

You went off with Tabitha to get tampons and Jacob and the rest went to start getting things off the list. After getting all you needed, you messed around and made tik toks before going back home. A small clip of Tabitha and Thomas laughing as the filmed the two of you from around the corner, Jacob’s hands on your hips and yours in his hair. In the middle of a heated kiss.

Helping Thomas film a youtube video, filming more tik toks and getting settled down in the theatre.

You mostly filmed the silly parts, laughing and play fighting.

“Alright guys, that’s pretty much what we do during the day!” You smiled.

“It’s getting late, we’re gonna get settled into bed, thank you so much for watching!” Jacob finished.

He turned the camera off and placed it on his desk, collapsing onto the bed face first. He turned over and pulled you on top of him: “You make me so happy, Y/n. So so happy.”

“I can't even put into words the way you make me feel, Jacob Day,” you smiled, kissing him gently.

Rekindling the flames

After nearly causing the end of the world with Kyogre, and having his ass saved by some children of all people, and a Pikachu! A Pikachu ruined his plans! Archie found himself slumped as he and Shelly tried to leave the scene.

(This was right after the scene of watching the blue and red orbs destroy each other)

(Bonus points if you can read this in their anime voices >:3)

“Sir, please… I think you need to rest. You’ve been through a lot today.” She says, her hand on his shoulder.

“I’m fine, Shell.. I promise. We just need to get away from here before any police show up…”

“-Ahem.”

They both froze, Archie turns around to see Maxie and his admin Tabitha behind them.

“Oh. It’s.. just ye, Maxie…”

“We need to talk.”

Shelly and Tabitha didn’t know what to say to break the silence of their bosses staring each other down.

“Shelly, why don’t we let these two talk alone? Here, you look famished. Let me take you to get something to eat.”

At first, she was completely stunned by her rival’s actions, but she then realized… it was time to stop fighting. “Of course, I appreciate it.”

With that, they both disappeared into the town nearby. Thank goodness there was a village on this island.

The two leaders were still staring at each other, neither of them knowing what to say.

“Max, I-“

He cut him off. But he had to think, when was the last time that Archie had called him Max? Too long.

“What were you thinking?” Maxie asked him. “Do you understand how much damage you would have done? This is not what EITHER of our organizations strive for.” He had to pause. “Or.. strove for..”

“Max…”

“Do you understand.. that you very well could have died? Kyogre and Groudon are both more powerful and dangerous than we ever could have imagined.. and we were both fools for believing that we could actually control that kind of power..”

“I think from the experience we just had, Max… that I very well know what’s been done. Ya don’t know how much I regret that… and besides, I thought ye’d be happy if I just fell into the ocean and drown!”

“You damned fool!” Maxie shouted, on the verge of tears. “We may have had our differences since we have spilt, but I would NEVER. EVER. Want to lose you!”

“M-Max-?”

Want to lose him? Has Maxie still had his feelings for him after they broke up?

“Maxie…”

He cut him off again. “Just.. let this experience be a lesson to you, Archie… and move forward. Team Magma and Team Aqua are history. This is the last we’ll see each other.”

Before he could leave, Archie rushed to him and grasped his hand.

“It doesn’t have to be like that!” He exclaimed. “Max…”

“What are you-“

Archie wraps his arms around him and holds him close. “Maxie… I’ve missed ye.. so much…”

He was completely stunned. He would’ve never imagined Archie hugging him like this, after everything they’ve been through. All the fighting, the deals, battling, and betrayal.

He didn’t know what to say. He felt his face warm up as his ex cuddled into his shoulder.

“I- will not lie, and say I haven’t missed you as well.. but..”

With no hesitation, Archie lifts his head from Maxie’s shoulder, then presses a kiss to his lips.

“Hm-!”

Maxie didn’t struggle or try to push him away. Instead, he closed his eyes and kissed him back.

Once the kiss was over, Archie spoke once more. “Please… forgive me.. for everything I’ve done.. I was such a damn fool for this entire time.. and the biggest mistake I made… was ever leaving yer side.”

“Archie…”

“I love ye. I never stopped loving ye. Ye’ve always been my only love. Please let us rekindle our relationship, I’ll be forever lost without ye..”

Maxie had no words. He was completely blindsided by the fool. But.. then again, he was HIS fool.

“Max, Please… I love ye so much.. and I’m sorry for everything… can we please give us another chance?”

He had to think for a moment. They’ve been separated multiple times. But.. this time seemed different. Archie was in tears, begging for him to take him back. He did feel like his life was meaningless without him, and he knew that their feelings for each other never went away.

“We.. have much work to do.”

“We’ll do it together. Like we always have. We can get past our mistakes and differences, Max.”

In that moment, Maxie finally gave in and started to cry, leaning himself into Archie’s shoulder and bawling. “Y-You don’t know how long I’ve been w-waiting to hear those words!”

It’s been a long time since he’s seen Maxie cry. “Shh.. shh.. I’ve missed ye, Maxie. So much.”

“I-I- missed you too… don’t ever leave me again…”

He hugged him tightly. “I won’t, Max. Not ever again. Yer mine. And I’m yers.”

Maxie finally said the words Archie was wanting to hear. “I love you.”

”I love ye too.” He smiles, kissing his temple.

With that, they both made the decision to disband both of their teams. They agreed to put their differences aside in order to be together. They even decided to start living together, and they’ve never been closer.

One night, 6 months after they got back together, Archie noticed his boyfriend was more silent than usual before bed, he took his hand and placed it on Maxie’s shoulder.

“Max, ye’ve been really quiet today.. is everything alright, hun?”

“Yes, I’m fine.”

Archie wasn’t buying his lie. “Max, I can tell when yer lying. C’mon, ye can talk to me.”

“I told you, everything’s fine.”

Archie grinned and pulled him to his chest. “Maxie… tell me what’s bothering ye.”

He stayed silent. Archie tried to think of ways to make him spill it. Then, he remembered something. Something that ALWAYS got the redhead to spill every detail of what he wanted.

“Oh, Max?”

“Mmm… what?” He grumbled. “I told you, nothing is wrong.”

“Oh no, I just wanted to ask ye something.”

“What is it?”

Archie grinned evilly. “After all these years, I must ask… are ye still super ticklish?”

Those words horrified him. He immediately tried to wiggle out of Archie’s grip.

“No-! No I’m not-! Don’t you dare!” Maxie yelled.

“Oh, no? Well, let’s test that out, then.” He says, gently digging his fingers into Maxie’s side.

“Gmmmph-! St-stop it!”

Archie laughs, moving up a bit to a set of his ribs. “Aww c’mon, Max! Don’t ye remember all the times I cheered ye up with tickles? Huh?”

“Eeh-! Y-Yes but- ihihihi’m not- mmmmh! T-Ticklish ahahnymore!”

“Is that so?” He asks, using both hands now, trailing his wiggling fingers and skittering them down to Maxie’s hips.

He slaps his hands over his mouth, knowing that if his boyfriend hears him laugh, it was all over for him.

“Are ye okay, Max?” He laughs again, going up and down his ribs and sides simultaneously.

Even while fighting for his life not to laugh, he accidentally lets out a squeak, making Archie grin once more.

“Oh? Was that a squeak I heard? Maybe I’ve found a spot that’s still ticklish, mmm?”

The teasing was going to be the death of him. After all these years, his ticklishness never went away. And sooner rather than later, Archie was about to find out.

“I remember a particular weak spot ye had.” Archie whispers, moving from his boyfriend’s sides to his belly.

“Oh no! Not there!” He thought, internally panicking. His stomach was one of his most ticklish spots.

“Mmmmm- mhmhmhm-!”

“C’mon, Max.. ye know that ye want to laugh. C’mon~ let it out! tickle tickle tickle~”

Finally, he couldn’t take it anymore, and bursted into a fit of laughter. “Ahahahahaheheheheehe-! N-No!! Nohohohoahahahahahaahah!!!”

“Aha! I knew it! Tickle tickle tickle! Awwww… I missed seeing ye like this, Max. Looks like yer sensitivity never went away, huh?”

“Ahahahahahehehehehe- Sh-Shuhuhuhut uhuhuhup!! *snort* Okahahahay okahahahay-! Y-you gohohohot mehehehe! Ehehehehenough ahahahalready!”

“Ohohoho no, I don’t think so. Ye better spill yer guts about what’s bothering ye, or else ye’ll be laughing all night!”

“Ehehehehehehehe!!! N-Nohothing ihihihihis wrong!! Eeeeeh-!! Stahahahahahahp ihihihihihiht!! Nahahahaht my ahahaharmpihihits! Ahahahahahahahahah- cohohohome ohohohohohohn-!!”

“Hehe! I’ve always loved that laugh of yers. Ye never laugh enough anymore, and we should fix that! Coochie coochie coo!”

“NAHAHAH- Nahahahohohoho teheheheheheasing!!!” The redhead squealed, wiggling back and forth in Archie’s arms as he went back to his sides. “Y-Yohohohou’re suhuhuhuhuch a chihihihihild!!! Ehehehehe- l-let mehehehehe gohohohohohoho!!!”

“Nope~ Sorry, giggle butt. Ye know what to do to have me let ye go. Hmmm… I wonder if yer feet are still ticklish….”

That sent Maxie into a panic. “Oh fohohohor the love ohohohf gahahahahd, nohohohot thehehere!!”

Archie’s eyes lit up. “Oh! So they are, huh? Good!”

“N-NAHAHO!!”

With that, Archie left his other tickle spots alone, then took his socks off.

“No no-! Archie, no!!” He pleaded, gasping for breath. “Please!! I promise, nothing is wrong!”

“Sorry, babe. But I don’t believe ye.” He laughs, poking his foot.

“Ehehehehee! Nooooohohoho!” He giggles, covering his face with a pillow. “Dohohohon’t!!”

Archie gently tickles one of his feet, sending his boyfriend into a mess of cackles.

“EHEHAHAHAHAHAH!!! NAHAHAHAHAT THAHAHAHAT!!! PLEHEHEHEASE NAHAHAHT THE FEHEHEHEHEHEET!!!”

“Dawwwww! The former leader of Team Magma, taken down by a few tickles! Coochie coochie coo!” He quickly grabs the other foot and tickles them both. “Ye ready to tell me now?”

“OKAHAHAHAHAAY!! OHOHOHOKAHAHAHAHAY!! I’LL TEHEHEEHEHELL YOHUHUHU!! JUHUHUST STAHAHAHP IT!!”

Archie releases the iron grip on Maxie’s ankles, and lets him catch his breath. “So, what’s been bothering ye, love?”

“L-Let me.. cahahahtch.. my breath..” He coughed out. Once he finally caught his breath, he spoke. “It has occurred to me… that we’ve been broken up and gotten back together 3 separate times..”

“Yeah? There’s nothing wrong with that, babe. We love each other.”

“Yes, but.. I’m afraid of us falling apart again.. I don’t want that to happen.. Because.. I love you.”

Archie teared up. “Awwww… Maxie.. *kiss* I love ye too. I promise ye that this time will be different. We’ll work through it, together. We’re a team.”

*sniffle*

“Oh- Maxie, honey… c’mon, don’t cry. I love ye.”

“I love you too.. Please forgive my ignorance..”

“You hush. *kiss* Yer not ignorant. Quit saying stuff like that about yerself.”

*sob*

Archie smiles at him. “C’mon, no more of that..” He wipes his tears away. “Don’t make the tickle monster come back and get ye!”

He yelps as his side was poked and wiggled away from him, but not getting far. “N-No-! No tickle monster!!! Hahahahahahahahahah- nohohohoho tihihihihihickle mohohohohonster!!”

“Yes! The tickle monster is gonna getchu!” Archie gleefully attacks his sides. “Hehe, I love that laugh of yers. It’s so cute. Laugh some more, my sweet Max.”

“Ihihihihi ahahaham a grohohohown mahahahan dahahahamn it!! St-Stohohohohohoahahahahp treheheheheheeheating me lihihike ahahahahahah chihihihild!!”

“I’m not!” Archie chuckles, going to his ribs next. “I just love teasing the shit outta ye. It makes ye turn that lovely shade of red~”

“Ehehehehehehehehe!!! A-Archie!!Stahahahahahp ihihihihihihit!!”

“Eventually, I will~”

This continued for a while. Archie was happy to have his redhead smiling and laughing once again.

Riverdale Characters and the IDGAF War

Nana Rose: general of the idgaf war. Kept a corpse in maple syrup for decades. Sold the maple groves that her husband’s family had held for generations after Reggie flirted with her once and she heard about one maple tree not producing sap. Sat on information regarding Jason’s death for months and did not care. Had a son that disappeared and a child bride daughter who hates her and never mentions any of them and never tried to look for said child or make amends with said daughter. Was fully prepared to sacrifice her granddaughter’s situationship at a moment’s notice.

Josie: The General MacArthur of the idgaf war. Utterly annihilated Sweet Pea and Archie in the idgaf wars of season 3, and came out victorious in the Cold Idgaf War against Reginald Mantle while texting during community service in season 2. Repeatedly stayed late and walked home alone from school durinng a time where her mother was receiving death threats, a serial killer was on the loose, AND she had a stalker who had managed to break into her locker (obvi, it was Cheryl, but she had no idea atp). Pulled a Jesy Nelson on the Pussycats only to reunite the band seven years later so she could flex on her flop classmates and clear every single one of them in a single takedown. The only reason Nana Rose ranks above her is due to the sheer amount of lore that Nana Rose sits on and doesn’t talk about because she dgaf about it.

Hermione: called a hit on her husband and still slept with him later. Divorced him by declaring she had joined the real housewives. Somewhat faltered after becoming a real housewife, but until then was as cool as a cucumber.

Hiram: dgaf about anything besides Veronica, wrestling, his rum business, and palladium.

Penelope: Does not acknowledge her breaking out of prison or sending her daughter to conversion therapy before asking her daughter to start a cult with her. Key victory against Hal in the season 3 finale.

Veronica: based on how she dealt with her breakups with Archie, Reggie and Chad, would be the most successful main character in the idgaf war were it not for Hiram. However, given that Hiram’s antics nearly always pose existential threats to her dreams and happiness, she is forced to concede brief losses by circumstance.

Reggie: debated putting him above Veronica due to how he handled his breakups with Veronica as well as selling her soul to Lucifer and setting fire to the maple groves but then I remembered his Red Circle era and he def gaf way too much.

Betty: much like Alice, hard to make a verdict. If it involved someone she cared deeply about, she would honestly hide it but be upset. I personally find labelling the Mad world stripping scene as fighting in the IDGAF war very funny, but ultimately she did it because she gaf about Jughead. She did, however, win the idgaf war against TBK.

Alice: Incredibly hard to answer, because overall she gaf, but when she wins, her victories are huge. I don’t know what else you could call the Gala entrance scene other than the equivalent to dropping an atomic bomb in the idgaf war. Completely annihilated Hal in the second season finale by telling him how much he sucked and how she wanted to fuck FP while he was trying to murder-suicide them. Otherwise completely loses because she cannot mind her own business.

Tabitha: honestly has no choice but to gaf because otherwise the multiverse would literally be destroyed.

Archie: Would seem to be winning but in reality wouldn’t know the idgaf war was even occurring. The second he finds out, though, he looks all over town looking to make that apology in person, regardless of who’s at fault.

Uncle Frank: cannot STAND when people don’t want to hear him. Always involves himself in shit. I guess he won the idgaf war against his family in Canada by abandoning them???

Cheryl: believes that she’s winning the idgaf war only to lead her troops to the slaughter like the Dauphin at the Battle of Agincourt. Seemingly won the idgaf war by isolating from the world for seven years, but immediately shat on that victory the second she left the house by challenging her pregnant ex, and then a literal teenager, to a dance battle for control of a high school cheerleading team. Cursed an entire town because some of them were descended from the people who killed the witch ancestress that Cheryl had literally found out about only an hour before. Made five (I count burning down Thornhill) tributes to her dead twin only to keep his stuffed corpse in her chapel and talk to it, then created a religion with him as a Christ figure. Reacted to her ex being pregnant by building a nursery in her house. Banned her ex from wearing the colour red. Hosted a key party just to hook up with her ex. I cannot stress how much this woman gaf.

Jughead: slaughtered right off the bat like the Hunger Games tributes that step off their pedestals early and get blown up immediately. The only member of the Core Four to show up at Pop’s after college. Cannot physically resist getting baited. If any person interferes with his life he immediately imagines that they are the Big Bad whose single purpose is to eternally ruin Jughead’s life (most don’t even know who he is, much less care about him). He got so pissed about being banned from the prom that he didn’t even want to go to in the first place that he wrote a fanfic about murdering his principal. The only reason he gaf more than Cheryl is due to the sheer concentration that goes into him pretending not to gaf and be aloof.

⚠ MOON KNIGHT 106 SPOILERS ⚠

Oookay…

Yeah well, I was a little scared about what the poster could mean. Like, was it all actually Marc's imagination and he was indeed in a psychiatric? Then I realized the reason of the poster and everything was fine.

“Whatever else who might be there.” Oh Harrow, you have no idea…

I'm not really surprised that Layla is going to look for them. Alone. With a knife only. *sighs*

Taweret. I had this Lucifer flashback. Remember when he sent a demon to talk to Chloe? No? Well, i do.

She asked Layla to be her avatar.

To which she said no.

And, of course, the Gods are freed by breaking the statue. As simple as that. I did not think my theory was right but… it was.

Ngl, I WAS expecting Layla to become Khonshu's avatar. I did wanted to see her as Moon Knight (yk, like Tabitha from Earth trns 590 [I believe I wrote it correctly]).

But I'm somehow happy she didn't accept.

“You're the only superpower I ever had.” Man, Marc went back for Steven, he turned to sand and placed (quite literally) his heart between them, bringing him back. It was emotional.

And we have Taweret helping them, old softies, stopping the sand.

The bullets falling when Marc stands up. The suit forming. Lemme just… 🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴.

So, just like that? Did Khonshu accept to free Marc (and Steven) for good, just like that? There's just something there that's not convincing me.

That frame. That fRAME of him covering the moon with the suit. *chef's kiss*

Taweret is a baby and I love her. And you love her too. We all love her.

You know what I also love? The costume she chose for Layla to wear as her Avatar. 10/10. Quality.

Now, the transition between Marc and Steven (aka Moon Knight and Mr. Knight) is sick.

The fact that Steven fixed the suit while still fighting, leading him to be thrown away was so funny. I like this kind of humor.

The girl asking Layla if she's a superhero and she going “I am.” ajzñdkzñsñ. Yes, you are!

JAKE?!??!!?? WHAT IS THIS? WHAT HAPPENED? WHAT DID YOU DO? WHY AM I YELLING?

We can all agree that it was him. Steven didn't do it and Marc blacked out (again)..AAAAAGH!!!

Now, what the hell was that, at the asylum with Harrow?

For a moment, I thought about that theory saying that everything was, in fact, in Marc's head and nothing was real.

Which would have the poster making sense, but it didn't. Not when Harrow's footsteps were printed in blood on the floor.

Aaaand, they wake up in Steven's apartment, and Marc falls because he has this clamp thing (sorry, idk what's it called xd) around his heel.

AND I HIPE YOU STOOD FOR AT THE END OF THE CREDITS BECAUSE THERE IS ONE SCENE, FINALLY!!!

Harrow (Ammit), in a psychiatric, being strolled out of the hospital by someone, put in a car and then BHAM! we have Khonshu telling him that Marc didn't know how messed up he was.

AND THEN, INTRODUCING HIS FRIEND, JAKE LOCKELY!!! DUUUUDE, HE… AJSÑDKSÑS!!!! I'M SCREAMING AGAIN!!!

Wait, wait, wait. Did I miss the “MOON KNIGHT WILL RETURN” at the end of the credits? Was it not there? Why am I always asking questions I know the answer to?

Anyway, this series was phenomenal! The best, I dare to say, Marvel has done so far (and I'm talking about Marvel Disney, because Daredevil is still the best), I don't think the projected ahead can top it but we'll see.

Now, we have to wait for Ms. Marvel and hope for the best. 🤞

Some Of My thoughts/predictions from succession trailer pleaaaase feel free to contribute or fight with me. you dont have to read this all just pick a bullet point that intrigues you

STEWYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!& was that tabitha or a blonde woman??? & i am sooo bewitched by sandi and i really hope she gets some screentime and dialogue especially w/ shiv

the "teaming up with stewy" thing is going to be a fake out. theyll try and get shot down immediately

might be one of the only scenes we get with stewy? (it would be long and emotional but still)

stewy hug im so fucking sick right now. perhaps its after he goes yeah fuck no man/a sort of judas hug of betrayal. and i hope he tells him about the manslaughter. a girl can hope

the "i hate you" scene roman is LITERALLY going to have sex with mattson 😐 im happy for you guys but i hate him so bad and not in a fun way i think hes dull and irritating and too swedish

logan sees roman as the weakest link and is going to try and use him to tear them apart

i think connor sees his campaign as his contribution to the sibling's efforts. hes here to beat that fascist

big fat PREDICTION: a small percentage of menkin's userbase will somehow be persuaded to vote conner (such as menkin accused of gay and comes out as VERY MUCH against the gays, conner cashes in on this) leading to menkin loosing, so, in a WAY, conner beats menkin

would also be funny if conner's gay rights stuff is because roman gets outed as...[ambiguous]. like its definitely for political reasons primarily but the idea of I SUPPORT MY GAY EVIL BROTHER! is quite funny

not a lot of shiv in this trailer i think she will play a role that is very key in this season and they want to conceal that. and/or. pregnant

furthermore the emphasis on roman makes me believe his plots might not influence the wider story as much as they are trying to make us believe

i hate greg i want to explode him with my mind (haircut)

not showing any roman/fascist interactions...curious

i hope logan stabs gerri HARD succession fans see her as like this unshakable pillar and im not about that. show me the inner lives of women now .

where is jess i want her

i really enjoy the pierces i hope we do genuinely see more of them and it isnt just a fake out AND i hope they invite frank into their cult

i just know greg is going to betray tom for a can of coke and a 6 piece chicken nugget

i hope someone buys greg a watch i love themes and metaphors

i know the series is supposed to conclude with a funeral and i know jesse said kendall won't die but. well either its going to be someone totally unexpected dies and logan continues his miserable loveless hateful existence as the ""winner"" who is now alienated from his family(and maybe even played a key role in one of his children's deaths?....)

OR its so obvious of course he will die he had to die jesse armstrong doesnt do red herrings he doesnt do plot twists logan is old and hes sick and hes killing himself more every season he is going to die and suddenly none of it will even matter

ewan and logan are going to have a very important scene that leads to their sort of reconciliation or that being the last time they will ever speak

what if greg's dad saw him getting rich and showed up in his life again. what then

overall my biggest hope is more stewy, roman never catches a break, shiv gaslights tom, and someone gets outed for gay activities (im not picky about who)

#succession #i could write so much more you dont even understand #is anyone out there pleaaaaaaaaseeeeeeeEEEEEEEEEE #succession season 4

The Daily Dad

Things you might want to know, for May 16, 2023:

Frank Miller Wolverine variant cover ignites Twitter debate — It’s ugly. It’s not interesting. But that doesn’t mean it isn’t a legitimate, thoughtful piece of art. That’s just where Miller’s head is at these days, for better or worse.

Invisible creatures are having sex on your face — while you sleep — Your pores are literally cum dumpsters. Let that sink in.

New study puts a definitive age on Saturn's rings: They're really young — Some day they’re going to run away from home, and then Saturn will really be sorry.

The Immortal Myths About Online Abuse — Dash has always had lots of very confident opinions about matters he considered settled as soon as he developed an opinion. Which means he tends to be half-right about things, as he is here.

7 men, 1 depraved sex network: Unravelling the full story behind the wife-sharing drug rapes

Justified returns July 18 but WHAT is going on with Raylan’s hat? — A studded hatband is Raylan Givens’ idea of exploring an alternative lifestyle.

Twitter Fights Over Who’s Hotter: Young Al Pacino Or Young Robert DeNiro — Al’s worst looks were/are worse than Bobby’s, but when sufficiently cleaned up and styled, Pacino is better looking.

Artist creates everyday objects out of Lego

San Francisco women named Thor Kill sentenced to prison for possession of bomb-making supplies, ammunition — And now she just has to hope she doesn’t run into Zeus Rape at the correctional facility.

The Fanfic Sex Trope That Caught a Plundering AI Red-Handed

Archer’s superspy adventures are finally coming to an end after the series’ 14th season — I’m slightly sad, but mostly content. I more or less gave up on the show during Sterling’s coma, and while I’ve tried fighting my way through, it’s a struggle… they’ve never recovered the weird sincerity that once underpinned all the snark the show serves up.

Why are so many young Americans adopting fake British accents?

Double-screen ‘free’ TV will show you ads, even when not in use — Okay, so, the ONE thing I like here: the second screen keeping their ads off the content. (A handy way of avoiding lawsuits from content publishers.) Everything else about this whole idea is a surveillance nightmare that —sadly— might actually be successful.

MTV News Confidential: Kurt Loder, Tabitha Soren, and John Norris Tell All

Dedicated player builds Gundam in Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom — I remember having the kind of time and focus it would take to come up with this shit. Barely. Wow.

Kanye West files trademark for socks that are also shoes — Excuse me, Ye? I believe Mr. Bundy has a concept you’re going to love…

'Avatar: The Way of Water' is coming to Disney+ and Max on June 7th — Does this mean I have to re-watch the first one? Should I take it as an omen that I really don’t want to re-watch the first one?

Woman busted with 1,500 grams of cocaine hiding behind her fake pregnancy belly

Why Gen Z loves Seinfeld — …when did this happen? I approve, but given Millennial indifference to the show, I’m surprised.

Cash App founder Bob Lee was part of an underground party scene of sex and drugs called 'The Lifestyle' prior to his death, report says — This just keeps getting wilder and wilder.

My friends thought I should see the new Helluva Boss, and I did, so here's what I thought:

-I don't really follow the series so I don't know most of what was going on, but it was surprisingly intuitive

-There's a clown! A robot clown! A gay robot clown! They sound like Beetlejuice

-They ARE beetlejuice.

-The robot clown has this really tall boyfriend with a really nice voice but they're secretly dating. They have to pretend they're not dating for reasons?

-Wait I know the tall guy, that's Asmodeus, from the episode I saw once with the weird song

-This clown is kind of a, well, a clown

-Oh, that guy I don't like much is back. Only, they're making him sympathetic with a sad backstory so I don't hate him anymore, I just find his voice kind of agitating

-It took, like, 2 seconds for that cowboy (he was in the episode with the married couple I like that shoots people) to grab that clown

-There's a paperwork subplot. Most of the episode is fighting, dancing, or dance fighting and there's a PAPERWORK SUBPLOT

-I like the animation. It's very smooth.

-There's a whole scene that's mostly just vague innuendos and I don't know how that makes me feel

-Current mood is the goon who dropped his stack of cards, pulled out a comically oversized gun, and shot a go-cart, triggering a chain reaction that freed his prisoners and started a song number

-There's a song? This is a musical show! Sick!

-Hey if I post about this the bad fans will rip me open for my dumb opinions

-OH NO THE POOR CLOWN IS AN AMPUTEE. AND NO ONE VISITED HIM IN THE HOSPITAL.

-After he sings a song and the annoying guy (Blitz, no o) welds though the ceiling?

-Bro this clown has so much trauma I swear

-The lust guy cares about consent! Very important! Love him

-The owl was back for literally no reason. I like him.

-The scene where our clown guy is back at home and he feels bad about how he made bad decisions and broke his arm? And his boyfriend who is literally the embodiment of lust is all nice and sweet and helps fix his arm? That melted my heart.

-Seriously, I almost cried. the ships are surprisingly, refreshingly healthy for a show about demon assassins

-I cannot believe I, the stone-hearted, loveless aro I am, who has sworn off all fandom activity, kind of definitely ships those two.

-It's because they remind me of Victoria and Tabitha

-IT'S BECAUSE THEY REMIND ME OF VICTORIA AND TABITHA

-I love that dynamic of "reckless and smol" and "chill and tol"

-Literally. It feels like Victoria and Tabitha. Vic reminds me of the clown, since she's small and mortal and gets into trouble, and Tabitha is the lust guy because she's protective and powerful and immortal

-I swear, I love that dynamic of "I think I'm unloveable" and "I love you anyway"

-Why is everyone in this show so horny all the time. Do they sleep

Every Succession episode ever, ranked from worst to best

Need to procastrinate so I'll do the thing when I rank the episodes from television show nobody watches and nobody will ever see that posts so just let's go

also every episode here is good mind you 39. s03e06 "What It Takes" -- honestly cannot remember this episode at all

38. s01e03 "Lifeboats" -- this episode challenged my will to watch Succession a little, but Logan put on a sock so

37. s04e04 "Honeymoon States" -- ok, at this point it's clear i'm just going by how much I remember what happened + considering which episode came just before it, it being more calm episode hurts a lot harder

36. s03e04 "Lion in the Meadow" -- two 4th episodes in a row, hope it does not become a trend (I have nothing to say about this episode)

35. s01e04 "Sad Sack Wasp Trap" -- sure hope 4th episode of 2nd season is better than the others (it is)

34. s02e02 "Vaulter" -- noooo Lawrence Yee

33. s03e02 "Mass in Time of War" -- honestly season 3 isn't all that great now I think about it

32. s03e01 "Secession" -- yup, I was right

31. s02e01 "The Summer Palace" -- at least better season opener than Secession + Napoleon dick

30. s03e03 "The Disruption" -- this is the last meh season 3 episode, I promise

29. s02e05 "Tern Haven" -- so long story short, I was inspired to make this list after seeing some magazine claiming it to be the greatest Succesion episode and like, no. Still good tho

28. s01e02 ""Shit Show at the Fuck Factory"" -- Roman/Shiv fight scene is the top 10 anime fights

27. s01e07 "Prague" -- oh, but it does introduce Tabitha

26. s04e06 "Living+" -- I need to start dropping season 4 eventually, and aside from Honeymoon States, this one is the least entertaining (tho Karl is great once again)

25. s01e09 "Pre-Nuptial" -- this is mostly setup for the finale, but it does introduce Lady Caroline, so yeah, number 25 it gets

24.s01e01 "Celebration" -- yeah, this show really is too consistently great to make a ranking list, like, great pilot didn't even made it to the top half of the list, what a world we live in.

23. s02e07 "Return" -- ok, I have like, 7 episodes of season 2 left, but I want to put most of them in the top 10. This season is just too good

22. s03e08 "Chiantishire" -- hello again season 3. This episode has same problems as another pre-wedding episode from season 1, but it has that one Logan/Kendall scene

21. s01e05 "I Went to Market" -- Evan makes his grand debut. Oh yeah, rest of the cast is also in this episode

20. s04e01 "The Munsters" -- Best season opener solely due to Logan's talk about death

19. s01e07 "Austerlitz" -- we're getting into "great episodes" territory, starting with first major fight between Logan and his kids

18. s02e06 "Argestes" -- this ending scene made a lot of mfs wet (I am mfs)

17. s04e02 "Rehearsal" -- the fact that this is the last time Shiv, Kendall and Logan talk...

16. s04e10 "With Open Eyes" -- imma be real, I didn't enjoy Succesion finale as much as I've probably should. It's still great and rather satisfying considering how messy the plot was by the end of the series

15. s04e07 "Tailgate Party" -- oh this Tom/Shiv scene is everything we could've wanted as a climax to their relationship

14. s01e06 "Which Side Are You On?" -- vote of no confidence scene is so fucking chills man

13. s02e03 "Hunting" -- HUNT! HUNT! HUNT!

12. s03e05 "Retired Janitors of Idaho" -- Roman told president to blow him, absolute legend

11. s01e10 "Nobody Is Ever Missing" -- great finale to a decent season, especially noteworthy is the final scene and how it pararells with the season 2 finale.

10. s03e07 "Too Much Birthday" -- we still don't know whether or not Roman kept his mom's gigantic vagina

9. s02e08 "Dundee" -- *inhales* L TO THE OG

8. s04e08 "America Decides" -- there is definitely some political commentary in this but I'm not American so it kind of flies over my head huh

7. s04e06 "Kill List" -- If Kieran Culkin won't get that fucking Emmy...

6. s04e09 "Church and State" -- Now this is how you make a funeral

5. s02e09 "DC" -- you can't make a tomlette (s02e10) without breaking some Greggs (this episode). Also Laird, Karl, and Roman is such a great team-up that it makes me wish we would get an entire season of their shenanigans

4. s03e09 "This Is Not for Tears" -- see? I told you season 3 has some heat after all (I've never told you that, but I tell you now).

3. s02e04 "Safe Room" -- easily best episode from comedic standpoint. Between Roman training, Attack Child, Mo's eulogy and so much more this is absolutely amazing hour of television. But don't let that distract you from the fact that Roman Roy was interested in politics at a very young age.

2. s02e10 "This Is Not for Tears" -- best season finale by a long margin. With great wrapping up of characters arc this season, memorable moments like Tom eating the chicken, and culminating with shocking twist and one of the best shots in TV history that sends me chills down the spine every time. Absolute gem of television.

1. s04e03 "Connor's Wedding" -- yeah this is the best one

Name: Darksun

Age: adult(tm)

Meaning behind tumblr url: Ghost faced bats are my favorite animal in a "he's so ugly, i love him!" kinda way

Hobbies/Interests: Uhh mostly drawing and writing! I also love playing video games (like fallout and pokemon which initially drew me to your account LOL)

Why you follow me: I love your art SO MUCH! Goals really

Random fact about yourself: biggest OC hoarder in the west. currently working on my sci-fi setting's story!

Question for me: What's your favorite moment/scene in pokemon emerald and why?

[introduce yourself!]

thank you for sharing about bats; i love learning about new animals! they are cute in an ugly sort of way. i love them.

and i love your art too!! streamer courtney is based, and i know nothing about fnaf but your art for it is so cool. if you ever post about your sci-fi setting, i'd love to know more about it!

as for my favorite scene in emerald, i gotta say i'm a groudon fan so groudon waking up is up there for sure. also the fact that this happens like halfway into the story and then nothing comes of it until the end. what was groudon doing for that time? where were they?? i'm so curious. i'm definitely getting into this in a fic don't worry

that being said, shoutout for introducing multi battles by teaming up with steven at the mossdeep space center, but also i'd like to know why we can't do this with other trainers throughout the game. let me team up with archie to fight maxie and tabitha at mt chimney. let me team up with maxie to fight archie and shelly at seafloor cavern. that would have been so cool. 3/10 missed opportunity

#like groudon's just chilling in the woods or something and then senses kyogre wake up and is like #''oh i have to beat the shit outta this guy'' and starts heading for sootopolis #seriously what were they doing? there are no weird weather reports for that time #(you know like how you track them down in the postgame) #maxie fails so fucking hard he loses a monster the size of a building that creates droughts wherever it goes and #then he can't even track it down afterwards?? come ON man you are KILLING me #god i love emerald but what even is plot. don't get me started on the goddamn rocket fuel thing #i ignore that one because god. what. hwat. what. #like maxie's not doing anything that makes sense like. tracking down groudon to catch it or archie to stop him. #he's just squarely dicking around because we needed to battle him for a THIRD time apparently #what a mess #okay tag novel over #autumn.ask

episode 9 reactions hdhhskfhshfhd (spoilers!!!!)

RANDALL BETTER NOT DIE OKAY I STILL BELIEVE HE CAN LEARN TO BE NORMAL I STILL BELIEVE IN HIM

i'm like 99% sure julie won't die so i'm not worried about her but omg tabitha is going through so much right now with her child in pain/danger and being unable to help... T_T

i felt really bad for mari when she said she doesn't want to be like this 😔 she deserves to get better and to get to be fully herself. she's getting a lot of hate in the fandom that i feel is unwarranted, we've only seen her being really sick and even then she's always been trying to help the others

this should be its own post but i'd like to see a jade and marielle friendship, she would probably get REALLY serious with him if she hears him casually joke about how much he's into party drugs like he did around kenny, and tell him that he should count himself lucky to still be able to just get away from all that consequence-free. i also want a boyd and marielle dynamic, he's good at adopting troubled girls

team tabby

i don't need a lot to be happy. jade sitting as autistically as possible on the kitchen counter means everything to me. he's just so easy to love, like a cat. also i really appreciate the way the show moved heaven and earth to make jade and tabby end up alone together for the night. the matthews house getting demolished + the new horror making it so that no one can be alone at night + jim leaving his family to go on his crazy adventure at the RV... im grateful i truly am

jade really took the supportive role to tabby's lead in the investigation and i love that for them. there's something so special to me about this dynamic, we're so used to genius guy detective + layman sidekick, seeing it flipped is so special to me. tabby is so awesome that the rich genius guy is actually her sidekick! love them sm

victor, tian chen, julie and ethan were so so sweet i'm literally heartbroken about what ethan said to victor!!! now that jade just learned to be normal istg this poor man can't catch a break???? he's a kid and he's scared i obviously don't blame him but i bet victor was so hurt T_T still im really happy to see him be more social. he's in good hands with tian chen. i swear the new "can't be alone at night" horror was engineered in a lab to socialise the loners against their will like feral kittens and i'm so down with it LMAO like yes you can bet i'll write jade fanfic about this

EDIT LMAO POSTED BY MISTAKE HERES THE REST

jim... jimmy... jimbo...

what is he doing!! what is he doing!!!!!!!!!! fighting the rifle guy at colony house istg this man LMAOO tabby did the same thing when she just arrived they're so like that... like now you wanna get back to your family i get it but if you go out there you're gonna die. he looks so cute in that jacket btw now i'm officially simping for both tabitha AND jim just like jade

kenny and sara

im really enjoying these scenes even if i'm suffering so much for kenny and i just want to yoink him out of this depressing plot they got him in, he belonged in that room playing board games with victor the kids and his mom istg!!! but all the sara scenes are extremely compelling and omg kenny is just so !!! i need to hug him. he went through that to keep everyone else safe SIGHS

sara's got a... way of dealing with the whole thing that's for sure. she brought up like the worst possible conversation topic when looking at the map LMAO i just couldn't believe it was possible to screw up that bad. i kinda have a bit of paranoia specifically about going crazy and killing someone and then having to emotionally deal with that (just my brain being my brain dont ask) so her plot fascinates me because i've mulled over how i'd feel and how i'd deal with a situation like that so much. but i draw the sympathy line at hurting kenny and she's still hurting him so !!!!!!!! girl just shut up when he asks you to shut up it's not that hard arghh

really good insight about the place and peoples fears though. was she saying that the place gets stronger the more people it manages to kill? thats a really nice explanation for all the mix-and-match weird horror stuff going on together at the same time tbh, i like it a lot if it's like that. if khatri was afraid of god's punishment or something like that then i guess they're royally fucked (some of victor's drawings showed the place getting flooded...)

You've told us something that's probably never gonna happen. Could you give us an example of something that you think could happen with Roman and the Mencken storyline that would work for you? I love speculative scenarios.

At this late date (*shakes fist at Jesse*), if it were up to me, we'd get a scene between Roman and Mencken at the end of 4x07 to take us into 4x08. Regardless of whether their sexual relationship was revealed to the other siblings tonight or not, it's necessary for the audience to at least have a sense of how it works and what Roman is feeling in regards to Mencken so that his actions in 4x08 have that context. Shiv smiled at the end of 4x05, Kendall smiled at the end of 4x06 - I'd have Roman smiling in bed with Mencken at the end of 4x07 (maybe that scene would start with them...finishing up, and then Mencken turning over to sleep. Then Roman would smile - it would be a callback to Tern Haven when he woke up next to Tabitha looking troubled).

After that, I'd want to see Kendall/Shiv/Connor find out about Roman and Mencken in 4x08 when they fight over the election results. And I'd want it to be messy - you know Shiv can sling some homophobic insults when her temper is up (not the f-slur but things consistent with the homophobia she's shown all season). And then...idk, honestly.

A lot of the time when Roman fucks up, his phone is involved. Naomi in S2, dick pic in S3, text from Logan this season. So it seems likely that something from his phone might be used to expose how he allowed Mencken access to ATN broadcasts (and Joy might back that up by letting people know she got fired for speaking out against Mencken). Either way, their relationship isn't surviving Mencken losing the election. So, I guess that's where it would end.

To me, this is still plausible, but certainly not likely. Sadly, I feel the show has probably elected to pretend there was zero sexual tension between them ever and just go with Roman's motivation to steal the election for Mencken being a combination of Logan's death and Kendall winning big by telling a big lie in 4x06. Roman may think that if he lies big as well, there will be no consequences and he'll be able the secure his position by having an open line to the president.

Guilty Pleasure Ships

I ship Barson (Benson + Barba from SVU), Rollisi (Rollins + Carisi from SVU), Bughead (Betty + Jughead from Riverdale), and Jabitha (Jughead + Tabitha from Riverdale) with all of the heart! These ships are examples of true love. No one can tell me otherwise but I also secretly love other ships. Barisi (Barba + Carisi from SVU) is so cute! When they were together, the scenes were iconic and/or funny. Although they're not gay in the show obviously, I can see them being a couple in an alternate universe. This ship causes online fights among fans but I don't care. They're adorable!! Jeronica (Jughead + Veronica from Riverdale) is underrated. I know that they're complete opposites and Veronica thinks that he's weird in the comics but they got chemistry on the show during times when they feel lonely. They can talk and team up. It's strange but yet seems right at the same time. I love it!

Riverdale 6x18 - Biblical (spoilers)

You know, I don't consider myself really a religious person but I'm pretty sure I could have figured out the whole plague angle about three plagues in. So after setting up for several episodes for the final battle we find ourselves setting up even more in this episode. I'm just going to give a brief recap of what happens to the characters leading up to the last fifteen minutes.

Jughead is really tapping into Rivervale to the point he's writing down stories from it, or he's writing it and it's coming true; it's confusing. Anyway, his stories keep being stolen by people from Rivervale. Also, he eats a Cheeseburger from the other side that may have been poisoned (more on this in a moment).

Toni and Fangs decide to get married quickly. Kevin, and this proves this can't be our Riverdale, realizes he's wrong. Then, he tells Toni and Fangs he's not going to try to take Anthony anymore. Then, he continues to do the right thing by agreeing to spy on Percival to help everybody out. And he's actually successful.

Archie and Tabitha want to keep on holding out against Pickens, until they realize what's going on. Archie tries to make a deal to keep the workers safe, but then agrees to build the railroad himself for a time in order to save the workers. And yes the symbolic Christ moments are way over the top, thank you very much.

Cheryl's wedding present to Toni is to kill Percival, or she tries. But he turns the spell back on her, or I should say Nana Rose, and sets Nana Rose on fire. But that's ok, Heather has some healing balm for the third degree burns. And Nana Rose is clearly immortal.

Veronica has decided that this is the perfect time for an identity crisis. According to her, Tabitha is fighting Percival for Jughead and the restaurant; Toni and Fangs are fighting for the baby and for each other; Betty and Archie are fighting for the town and each other. But why is Veronica here? After singing a truly cringe worthy (and I mean this literally, the characters were literally cringing) song at the rehearsal dinner (and suddenly, the whole scene between B&V took on a completely different tone); Veronica decides she's fighting for her friends. But is she?

Betty researches about what's going on. She sees a picture of the Whore of Babylon and has her Rivervale flashback. Then, she's told by Kevin that Percival has bought a stockade in which he plans to put the Whore of Babylon in. Betty goes to confront him, but he doesn't seem to know what she's talking about; that he doesn't seem to know she's had the visions. Anyway, he gives her an ultimatum about bringing Anthony or things will get worse. However, she's able to tell Heather about the stockade and Heather realizes it's one to prevent someone to use their magical powers (sure) and they go and, long story short, trap Percival or so they think. However, his Locus pets set him free (don't ask).

So, now we're at the last fifteen minutes. Toni and Fangs get married...skip. Percival gets free and then goes and kills Nana Rose as she's the oldest firstborn in Riverdale. This sets off a chain of events in just a moment. Meanwhile, Veronica is clearly upset with Betty and Archie together and then asks Tabitha, since she's seen the future, who ends up with Archie? Of course, at this moment, Roberto proves he would rather kill of half the cast then answer that question. Archie, Fangs, and Toni are dead; but baby Anthony is not. That's because Anthony is special somehow. Tabitha runs out of the room, worried for Jughead (um). And Heather mentions she knows a witch....

Meanwhile, in the bunker, Jughead confronts the person stealing his stories...it's Jughead (duh). Here's the strange thing, at this moment Jughead starts having the same pains as the firstborns. Except he's not a firstborn. I have three guesses. One, other Jughead being there is hurting him (doubtful). Two, the burger really was poisoned and he's just now feeling the effects. Three, some people have wondered if the two Jughead's switched in the middle of the seasons. That 'Vale Jughead has been running around since, um, 6x12 or 6x13, when he had the hand problem. Let's assume that's true, does anybody remember if Charles was mentioned in Rivervale? Is it possible that Rivervale Jughead is the firstborn child and is the Jughead that will die?
