#who watches riverdale and wants to share their thoughts

Tumblr media
Did I just finished watching 1899? Yes.
Do I want to share my thoughts? Yes.
That intro??? That was so good. I didn't skip it for the whole show.
The character writing? I could kiss the creators. & the actors for being perfect.
Daniel🥺
The mind fucking plot? 10000/10 (I don't get it but I love it)
I can't go on without spoiling (do not read further when you haven't watch the show)
Daniel, again. Like he is really out there suffering the most (suffering isn't a competition but you know what I mean)
The scene, where they all go jumping off, was hilarious to watch (the shots with the whole ship, ofc not the scenes with Krester and Lis mom)
Olek being a decent human being. 🥰🥺
I do think Maura's father is wrong when he tells Elliot that his father doesn't care about him. Daniel knows his son is dead (probably) so he knows he can only save Maura. He'd save him if he could. I am 100% convinced and you can't change my mind about this.
Did Krester really blame Tove for killing the man, that attacked him and abused her?😐 (Yes, killing isn't good but how dare he to be so rude?? Especially since he was the reason. It was bad reasoning from the man but still.)
Krester's mom out there testing and stressing me. (She threw a boy out of the ship because she thought he was the devil. The way she treated her children, especially wishing death on Krester?)
Clémence is amazing. I would die for her.
Also, everyone is like Eyk+Maura 🥰 —Well everyone except me because my man (Daniel) is out there awake for at least 16 days (he must have gone through 2 simulations at least) just to help his love, who does not remember him.
Also theory: if Maura created this simulation, she also created that Daniel would come to help her get out of it. Because she trusts him.
And now my sore hate against Netflix for canceling this show (we got so many Riverdale seasons???):
This show has so much potential for a second season. I mean come onnnnnn. The show was so so good and it only had 8 episodes. Robbed.
Did we got robbed of the hot villain brother that is keeping his sisters in simulations solely because he hates her? Yes. I'm convinced that we got robbed. (I do think he hates her, because on the envelope to Maura, he wrote Henry and Maura stated that he used to call her like that because he hated her.)
Maybe he doesn't want Maura to suffer but their father. (Wow, I just realized that could have been another option)
I do think the spaceship is another simulation because of the triangle in her eyes and (I might didn't notice) Daniel wasn't there and he said a minute before, he would be there if she woke up. Always.
I felt like everyone else was there except him (—and maybe that's because of my bad eyes—) which is fine because he wasn't supposed to be on the ships either.
I feel like we could have seen a traumatic flashback from her father and brother in the second season.
All I want is for Daniel and Maura to find peace again.
Please.
Also, I wanted Tove, Clémence, and Maura to team up and being absolutely badass. Got robbed.
Everyone did such a good job with this show, the actors, the creators, the camera staff, the post-production staff (special effects, etc.). Everyone except Netflix.
The plot is amazing and there is so much left to unpack and I'm really devastated that we won't see all that “glowing up” for another season. :(
Now a poll because I am finally able to make on😁:

omg omg omg omg
1. if we’re talking about writing then i guess when i was little i wanted to write down all of the dialogue of some of mlp episodes but my mom said no😭😭 and i did throw a whole tantrum then and she was like “child get over yourself” and i was all putty and decided screw you people, i’ll do it myself >:[ (spoiler ahead: i didn’t) and then after some years i guess i watched some series and me and my friend made up a world there and i wanted to write down some scenes with me so i literally wrote my own fanfiction then?? (i literally don’t remember what was happening to writing in my life between the ages like 8-13💀)(i mean i remember i was writing a silly story once and planning a book but like??? when exactly??)
and as for writing i literally came out of the womb with a marker in my hand so i was doing it for as long as i remember and i always loved mlp so it started there and well… here we are
2. oh my, my favourites? my favourite colors are defo: red, bottle green and purple but like… a deep one, and a hot pink lately. my fav food is just pasta. i don’t care how or with what, PASTA!! my favourite flower is an orichid:) my favourite characters oh my: fizzarolli (defo), violet from ahs, monica from friends, twilight from mlp, narcissa from harry potter, lady lesso from sfgae, catwoman/poison ivy/harley from dc (still can’t decide on one) and batman, peggy from marvel, aubrey from pitch perfect, celia from tshoev, and darcy from written in the starts:) (there’s a lot more but these are the few from the top of my head)
3. I LOVE VIDEO GAMES THEY WERE MY SPECIAL INTEREST AS A CHILD!! right now my favourite must be the batman i’m currently playing (i have no idea what is that game called) and probably minecraft and little big planet
4. i have not! or i don’t think i have at least, must check it out:)
5. RENEE RAPP>>>> i must still watch the new means girls so bear with me, but i want to watch it in cinema and it just came out in my country so i need to get my friends to go with me
6. I FUCKING LOVE MUSICALS I LIVE FOR THEM!!! my two favourites are mamma mia and pitch perfect (and a special place for sweeney todd) JUST UGH ABBA AND A MOVIE??? CMON!!! AND PITCH PERFECT HAS THIS OERFECT PERFOMANCES LIKE UGHHHH
7. rose from titanic. i said what i said. it was the first movie with people i’ve ever watched and the first lady my brain went “i want to be like her she’s so pretty:)” (you didn’t want to be like her camila, you wanted to be WITH her)
8. oh god good question. i think the person i accepted myself with my sexuality was cheryl from riverdale (when i thought i was bi and then omni and all of those different things) and then robin from stranger things, they both have a special place in my heart. but like just a gay awakening i must also it was also rose? it’s just the kate winslet effect
I LOVED THEM!!!>:]

every day we get on beyoncé’s internet and share our opinions on what we think the worst teen show is. some say it’s glee, others say pretty little liars. and if you’re uncultured and don’t know television history, you’re saying riverdale. you’re all forgetting the abomination that abc family unleashed on us... the secret life of the american teenager... the erasure is frankly upsetting. like how can we forget such hits as amy literally in sobbing in middle of a public park saying “i’m such a whore” and ben, her boyfriend, saying “you’re my whore” and being genuine. or grace losing her virginity and thinking she killed her father because it was good. or madison breaking up with jack because she didn’t like that they weren’t a secret anymore then him asking her to dance in the middle of his bedroom immediately after and turning on she don’t want a man by asher roth. or when they graduated and walked through the halls as a slowed down, sad version of girlfriend by avril lavigne played while flashbacks played. or when sarah palin’s daughter bristol was on the show for some reason. or grace having a secret brother from south africa played by jordan fisher who literally lives with them for a couple episodes and then just disappears. or when grace thought she might be a lesbian so she dressed “butch” and it was her wearing army camo and combat boots. or ricky cartwheeling poorly away from american gymnast shawn johnson who he apparently slept with. or someone, literally any character, bringing up sex for no reason every 2 minutes. or literally anything ben ever said. the show was a fever dream. 
you pick just about any episode and any timestamp and it will be one of the worst, most entertaining things you’ve watched. recommending the show is almost a threat.

I love your blog so much! Your gifsets are gorgeous and your metas are so eloquent. I was wondering if you could talk more about why you prefer Veronica to Betty. I do too! I’m not that familiar with the comics, but based on the show I actually thought Veronica was not just the better character but a better person. Beyond that, there was like a million times more substance to Varchie than Barchie—not just physical passion but a deep emotional connection, a ton of shared experiences, surprisingly open and healthy communication, etc. Meanwhile, Barchie were supposedly best friends who barely seem to be close at all for the first few seasons, and what little connection they had was all rooted in memories that occurred when they were younger children! In the present as teens and then adults they didn’t have much of anything, though by the time they inevitably got together I was too over the show to let myself care and I’m just pretending that Varchie was endgame :)
Thank you, Nonnie, glad you enjoy my messy little corner of the internet!
Man, it's been a while since I've watched the insanity that is Riverdale, but I've always been a Veronica Girl, even back in the days where I only watched the cartoon. So, of course, that transferred over to Riverdale, but I also really don't like Betty's characterisation on the teen series, while I love Veronica's.
Veronica always struck me as someone constantly trying to be better, to improve herself and the world around her, who carried familial guilt and shame over her father's wrongdoings and who tried her best to rectify them. She always teetered a bit between wanting to be a good person and the allure of her family's power but she always ended up choosing the right side. She was also such a genuinely good person, always showing empathy and compassion and trying to help others out. She never hesitated to throw her power or money behind any good cause and she grew a lot and came into her, even with the limited storylines the series kept her locked in.
Betty, to me, was kind of the opposite; a character who was handed lots of different storylines and areas to grow, but who pretty much remained the same person throughout the show's run, and that person is ... not great. Betty is selfish and manipulative, she uses Cheryl's trauma again and again to get her own way, she doesn't respect anyone around her, she's judgmental, she's self-righteous and the show doesn't seem to want to acknowledge or explore these flaws, instead pretending that Betty is just the sweet girl-next-door.
Again, it's been a while since I've watched the series, and I haven't seen Seasons 5, 6 or 7 in full, so my opinion could change on a rewatch. But, for now, the above is why I prefer Veronica to Betty.

Shifting experience
N°2
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So basically, today i wanna share one of my experience in one of my main DR.
PS :Sorry for not posting for 8 days, i was not doing well, i will try to post more often.
I shift to Riverdale, ik it's an uncommun DR . I watched this show in 2023 and i loved it ( the 2 last season were so weird like...). And if you watched it it's better.
I want to talk about the characters and their personality. We often see our cc ( comfort characters ) on screen but when you haven't shifted yet to your DR, you haven't experienced their real personality and how they act everyday.
And i seen so much people who had shifted for a specific person and their were kinda surprised or shocked of how their cc were acting. I just wanna say that it's kinda of normal because you only see their personality they show and not their personality in private yk? Its not common but not as rare as you can think of. And i wanna share my first interactions with my cc and how i thought they would act and how they really act.
《 PART2 》
THE CHARACTERS:
Veronica Lodge: I thought she was really a bad bitch, a boss and with vibes of independant women. When i first met her i was so surprised ( not in a bad way ) that she is so sweet and actually not so strong. She is soo kind and she have much of a coquette vibes in real life. She cares so much about others people. It's so crazy. Her personality is the same as in the show but she has a side they didn't show in the show. I love her.
Betty Cooper : So basically she is the " perfect girl " and know how to handle every situations. But not all the time. And she is a lot more mean than i thought. Its not in a bad way but sometimes she is very honest. And she does not have have always good grades. She is so bad at science like its really bad. And she is soo funny. She make me laugh everytime. She wears more revealing clothes than in the show. She really has good style and not the style of a 10 years old like in a show. She is not as perfect as i thought ( Nobody is perfect ). She is really provocative and she is not scared of doing crazy things. One time she jumped of a cliff because of a dare ?!??! Happily she have nothing but it was so surprising. She is really cool and has more of a cool/chill vibes than coquette/perfect vibes.
Archie Andrews : I thought he was more serious. But this guy is literally a child. He have a dirty mind, every time you say something than can be related to ... he is laughing and telling a dirty joke. He is so funny! He is the clown of the class and he is the hell for teachers. He cant be serious for just 2 minutes. But he is so focus in sport than his actually grades. He love sport and everytime his team win or he win he is acting like a child a make fun of us... But i really love him. He really wanna save everyone and that's something not really good for him. Ik he is working on that and hope its working. Its really sentimental and he can cry for everything. One time i ate the last ice cream and he cried?? I really didn't know what to do so i just ran away...
Jughead : I dont have a lot to say about him expect he is like in the show. But he is sooo funny and not that serious too. But he is so intelligent. Sometimes he speak and i dont understand because he use metaphores. I dont judge him for that but he really likes using fancy words to impress us ( that's not necessary ). But he is so sweet and he remember every little things. He is always hungry!! Every two minutes he is like " Aargh, im so hungry. What time is it?? " And he really care about his family. He is really sarcastic and its annoying sometimes but that's ok. I really enjoy being with him.
I wanna to say that i take things out because i dont want to be traumatised 😍. And i made their lifes happier because they deserved it. I really like this DR and its the Show where i first shifted in. This DR gave me the motivation to shift and not giving up. They really helped me getting better and learned things from life. I hope you're motivated to shift tonight and be excited.
☆I hope this helped you and you enjoyed it. I really liked making this post. Stay motivated, don't give up and enjoy you're journey. Byye ~♡
Tumblr media
Picture of clouds so beautiful ~~~
☆Love you all and Happy shifting♡

4, 6, 9 & 12
4. Share a dark thought? (Go on, vent a little)
while i'm genuinely excited to be 30 i sometimes get hit with such severe deep waves of "i should not have lived this long, i was not meant to live this long" and i hope that's just one of the side effects of being someone who always kinda assumed i would be dead in the ground by 25
6. What are you craving?
acid and huckleberries. haven't had acid in so long and my GOD it truly like is a nice little brain reset i always come through that feeling vaguely calmer for like...a while
also for the weather to be warm enough for me to go outside in a tshirt
9. Shows on your watch list?
finish spn (i'm in 13 and god i just.........boy i dont care lmfao)
finish vikings
leverage
finish the fall of the house of usher
euphoria
true detective
mr robot
riverdale
i haVE SO MANY LMFAO
12. Something you want to monologue about?
oh you're trapped with me
ok so there are these creatures in dark souls called basilisks (basilisks exist in many forms they are not unique to this game but that's the critter name and we are establishing a baseline here)
Tumblr media
(beast pictured here)
so anyways, there's this area in dark souls, the great hollow, where you get 400 random fucking souls as you walk in and there's no like...reason why
and people poked around under the floorboards and found a basilisk down there who is close enough in proximity to the player to trigger like, animations loading in, but it's beneath the floor so it just instantly falls to its death and you get its souls and it's just trapped down there in an eternal loop of death
and then they found a second one at the BOTTOM of the great hollow, also pointlessly trapped in this eternal loop of death because of your proximity to them. just your being there spells their undoing
and gives you like 8 bucks

a brief complaint? observation? complervation? obserplaint
I don't watch Riverdale, but this is tumblr and it was impossible to not hear about the final season hijinks, namely the polycule. alright thats cool but i couldnt help side-eyeing how it's really the boys get to sleep with all the girls, and the girls get to sleep with each other as well as the boys... but the boys aren't physically interested in each other. recently i read a quote from one of the show creators where they said Archie/Jughead would have been "too hot" which, lol, but Betty/Veronica isn't?? but anyway was certainly a joke, as the rest was about not forcing something to happen for the sake of representation.
individually all of that is fine, and i hate to nitpick but... I can't help it. I really can't. You tick all the boxes, not for wonderful lgbtqia couples, but for a male fantasy: you can date more than one girl you find hot and they're also bi and into each other. Not part of the typical fantasy are having to share the girls with another guy, and not actually watching the girls at it yourself. But that doesn't matter, because the fantasy isn't for Archie and Jughead, it's for the viewers. Who get to see everything.
Just a few years ago we X-men fans were treated to the great Wolverine/Jean Grey/Cyclops threesome. This was the culmination of literally decades of pining, envy, and truly epic ship wars. At first I was like, wow, really?? Even Cyke and Wolvie getting it on with each other? But that wasn't it - all three of them weren't together - Cyke and Wolvie just each got a piece of Jean and had to live with each other also having a piece of her. It was the sharing of the woman in the relationship which was seen as so amazing and "progressive." My bf was like "lucky Jean!" Meanwhile my reaction was, holy shit, do not want.
If I really believed this threesome came about because it's what Jean wants, that'd be one thing - and yes I'm aware Jean is fictional and can want whatever the writers want. But not even superhero comics are written in a vacuum. All I could see in my head was the writers throwing Jean to the dogs like a piece of meat. "You both want her? You can both have her!" I didn't, and don't see how Jean mattered in any way except that both Scott and Logan want her. And tbh, if they had done the same thing, but also made Jean in love with Ororo, I would still feel the same way: that the Ororo bit was shoehorned in to make people like me whine less about the curious lack of balance here. Lucky Jean, indeed.
So there's two situations which are canonical in their respective universes. It's kind of stunning to me. We lept right past "gay male representation" to "male fantasy re-spun as gay representation." The guys get the girl. The girls make out with each other. The guys still get to be like "no homo, bro," somehow. And this is like, so progressive. What's progressive about it?? Men have been watching lesbian porn since forever. My brother once told me he didn't believe women who said they were bi were really bi because he assumed they were lying to impress men with their bi-ness. Then there's the "sharing with another man" thing which I guess is such an impressive feat. Isn't that just a form of voyeurism though. Don't lots of people get off just on knowing their partner is wanted by others? I'm not seeing the sexual liberation here. I just see girls being sexy in ways men have always wanted them to be, and the men just kinda existing.
Some people insist the greater acceptance of women-loving-women on screen means women in general have far more sexual freedom than men. But being free because people think you're non-sexual or that your sexuality is for them, thus controllable, isn't freedom. There's a reason people believe Queen Victoria thought it was impossible to be a lesbian. She didn't actually. But people were happy to think she did, because they secretly didn't understand how it was possible for two women who lack the right "equipment" lol. That was culture talking. Furthermore, half of what allowed women to sneak around having fun lesbian times with each other was homophobia itself. Because women (in our strict, transphobic gender binary definition) don't have dicks. In many societies around the world, it was historically okay for men to have sex with other men as long as they were the "penetrating" partner. The one in the "male" role. To be in the "female" role was degrading. (There were also class distinctions that determined which role someone would be, depending on the culture.)
It was about pride and dominance. (This stood out to me in the comments on the Archie polycule article: fans [whoops it was the writer of the article!] were worried about how Archie and Jughead's actors would have felt about having to do homosexual scenes with each other. But they didn't express any concern at all for the possibility that Betty and Veronica's actresses may have not liked it.) And for some reason, it still is today. You can have TV lesbians, not because you're so progressive and pro-women loving women, but because lesbians are hot. But TV gays are another matter. They're not hot, at least if what you're trying to construct isn't queer representation, but a male fantasy. It's embarrassing to admit you, a man, are attracted to your male friend, let alone that you have soft feelings toward him. Honestly, even the lesbian relationships are often reduced to their sexual aspect and free of any solid foundation for why these two women picked each other. Which, I mean, it's all good to have fun for fun's sake as long as everything is safe sane and consensual. But it is rather playing in to the stereotype that homosexuals are sex-obsessed, and will wind up in socially-acceptable, straight relationships when they decide they want to have families and contribute to society.
I realize I've only used two examples here, Riverdale and X-men. Which don't really have much in common (although also more than you might think, haha). One reason why I fixed on them is that they're both media with a history. They've been around forever. They have fans across ideological and political spectra. We've seen a lot more positive queer relationships in movies and TV over the past fifteen or twenty years, including gay male relationships, and that's awesome. But by and large it stayed away from the most popular characters in these long-lasting brands. Wolverine has an alternate universe self who is gay and in a relationship with Hercules. It is hairy and bold, I guess. But not as bold as Wolverine being gay. And I'm not saying he has to be. I agree that queer relationships shouldn't be forced. I am saying I think it's curious that Wolverine can't be gay, but he can be in a threesome where he and Scott both get what they want, Jean, and the male fans don't need to feel uncomfortable, and can tell their girlfriends that Jean is so lucky. And Riverdale, like I said I'm not a fan, I never watched it, but my impression is that it was pretty weird and strange in a lot of ways... weird and strange enough to let its female characters be in love with each other as well as the boys... but not weird enough for the boys to do the same? I do think that if these weren't media with such a long history, things would be different. But no one wanted to upset the "true fans." And what makes a true fan is not wanting male characters to be gay. Female characters, sure, that's hot! But if you're waggling your brow at the male ones you must be just into it for the hot guys and incapable of fully appreciating the series. Lol. Double standard what?
This is more or less my struggle with poly relationships in media. It's not that I don't think they should be there. I just think that all the ones I've seen have been cop-outs on the writer's part, either because they don't want to disappoint fans by picking one ship to be end game or because they want the media fuss a poly relationship will make. While, ultimately, the poly relationships in question are just the sort that anyone who's used the internet in the past two decades has seen in porn ads way more times than we wanted to. Where is the polycule where the guys are dating the girls, but also dating each other, and the girls aren't interested in each other sexually at all? I can tell you where to find it: fanfiction! On a popular TV show though? You know, a place where men are more likely to see it? Hmm. Maybe tomorrow...

This is my attempt at trying to get out of the lurking side of Tumblr and actually participate. He’s an introduction to my likings! (couldn’t find the original page to credit the author of this questionnaire!!)
Your current OTP.
My current OTP is Gallavich! (Ian and Mickey from the show “Shameless” !)
A pairing you initially didn’t consider but someone changed your mind.
Sterek! (Stiles and Derek from “Teen Wolf” !) Watching the show the first time around, I was all about Stydia (Stiles and Lydia), and I still love them. On a few more watch throughs I took the advice of an online pal of mine, and definitely was surprised at how I couldn’t see the chemistry before! Love them.
A pairing you wish you shipped, but just can't.
Rina (Ricky and Gina from “HSMTMTS” !) I will learn to appreciate them over more time I believe, my Portwell ( EJ and Gina) Heart is just broken right now! ❤️‍🩹
What was the first thing you ever contributed to a fandom?
Not sure if this counts but probably a like on whatever fanfic I was reading on AO3 at the time!
Have you added anything stupid/cracky/hilarious to your fandom, if so, what?
Not yet! Just really getting into posting about my interests for the first time in here. I hope to one day be comfortable enough to maybe even share my writing!
What’s the longest you’ve ever been in a fandom? What fandom was it?
Not sure how long it’s been, “Boy Meets World” holds a special place in my heart! Especially Corey and Topanga!
What was your first fandom?
Sidemen I think, definitely way different to anything else I’ve listed here so far. 😂
Do you prefer real-life TV shows or animated TV shows?
Real life.
Has tumblr caused you to stop liking any fandoms, if so, which and why?
Bughead. (Betty and Jughead from “Riverdale”) Not going to lie, I’ve always been a Barchie (Betty and Archie) from day one, but thought Bughead was cute, but the fan base for that ship is wayyy to toxic.
Name a fandom you didn’t care/think about until you saw it all over tumblr.
Outerbanks! I’m literally obsessed. I can’t thank the “For You” section enough for introducing me to that show.
How do you feel about the other people in your current fandom(s).
I love everyone I have interacted with so far, there is always gonna be a bad apple, but I think for the most part the fandoms I’m in seem great!
Your favorite fanartist/author gives you one request, what do you ask for?
I’ll give the PG version for now, let me know if you want the answer to the NSFW version. I am in love with both Friends to Lovers and Enemies to lovers. Honestly I could read thousands of fics all with either of those concepts!
A person who got you into a fandom and what fandom they pulled you in to.
My IRL friend got me into “Stranger Things” just this past year. I honestly don’t know why I had been avoiding watching it for so long, but I’m so glad I did!
Your favorite fandom (for the people; not the thing you fangirl over).
Soap Operas, specifically Days of Our lives. If you’ve ever been on SOAP Twitter, you know the good drama that goes on with both fans and the actors. 😂
Choose a song at random, what ship does it remind you of?
“The Way I Loved You” Taylor’s version ~ Belly and Conrad from TSITP. ❤️
Invent a random AU for any fandom (we always need more ideas).
This is already an AU, but I don’t see enough of it!! ~ Fake Dating.
And a original idea… honestly I think every fandom needs any AU that deals with outer space!
A ship you’ve abandoned and why.
Don’t come for me but Olicity. (Oliver and Felicity from “Arrow” !) I was so into them when the show was still running, but now that it has been off for a while, I just don’t really seek it out, if that makes sense!
A pairing you ship that you don’t think anyone else ships.
The Moms from TSITP ~ you can’t convince me they aren’t lesbians.
What's a headcanon you have?
Stiles Stilinksi is BISEXUAL.
What are your favorite male/male ships or female/female ships?
Male/Male: Gallavich, WilSon (Will and Sonny from “Days of Our Lives” !), Ballum ( Ben and Callum from “Eastenders” !) Charle and Nick from “Heartstopper”!
Female/Female: Choni (Cheryl and Toni from “Riverdale” !), Calzona (Callie and Arizona from “Grey’s Anatomy” !), Brittana (Britney and Santana from “Glee” !), Stena (Lena and Stef from “The Fosters” !)
What are your favorite male/female ships?
Naley (Nathan and Haley from “One Tree Hill” !), WestAllen (Barry and Iris from “The Flash” !), Sarah and John B from “Outerbanks”, Barchie (Betty and Archie from “Riverdale” !), and Stabi (Stefan and Gabi from “Days of Our Lives” !)
Do you have any 3-way ships? If so, what?
Not currently! Maybe in the future!!
5 favorite characters from 5 different fandoms.
Eddie Munson/Steve Harrington- Stranger Things
Will Horton - Days of Our Lives
Iris West - Flash
JJ Maybank/Kiara Carrera - Outerbanks
Belly Conklin/Conrad Fisher/Cam Cameron - The Summer I Turned Pretty
3 OTPs from 3 different fandoms.
Gallavich (Ian and Mickey) - Shameless
Naley (Nathan and Haley) - One Tree Hill
Belly and Conrad - The Summer I Turned Pretty
A fandom you’re in but have no ships from.
Criminal Minds! I haven’t been in the fandom long enough to have any set ships yet!!
What's a ship that you want to ship publicly, but everyone on tumblr hates it so you keep your mouth shut about it?
They aren’t hated, but I feel like it’s always a 50/50 if you like this couple - Jim and Pam from “The Office”!
Thanks for reading! Let’s be internet friends and obsess over fandoms together! 🖤

MY OVERALL REVIEW OF PLL ORIGINAL SIN
I want to begin this post by celebrating the nostalgia of being on Tumblr back when the original show was airing, when I genuinely thought Aria was A and wanted her to be, when I hated Ezra and Ezria with a deep passion, when I was right about Cece Drake. It’s been incredible to come back on here and theorise once again because I forgot just how much I enjoy that. If you’ve been here since the beginning, Thank you.
When I first heard about PLL Original Sin my expectations were extremely low. How could I put myself through another Marlene King show? Even worse, how could I watch something else by the creator of Riverdale. Haven’t I learned?.. I decided to just watch it in satire, fully expecting to hate it as far as reboots usually go. However, those feelings were quickly derailed when introduced to these loveable - bad ass girls. I was instantly attached to Imogen above all. Something about Bailee’s acting just hit the nail on the head for me and there are SO many moments where I wanted to shout GIVE THIS GIRL AN EMMY OR SOMETHING, SOME KIND OF AWARD. She is such an underrated actress who I believe deserves so much MORE praise. She really blew me away this season. I loved her friendship with Tabby and I was silently rooting for them to become more than friends. Although, I’m not disappointed by the lack of sapphic reveal between them. They have such GOOD chemistry and a special bond that’s shared between best friends and that’s good enough for me. So many heartwarming moments between them such as when they share their trauma and figure out that maybe their sexual assaults are connected and then how they come together and confront Chip, that entire scene broke my heart. The way Imogen confesses to being hurt, the way Tabby tells him that she doesn’t feel safe in the world, that he stole from her. This scene was done so beautifully. Although, I was mad that Chip was let out on bail but then that quickly changed when Archie escaped the hospital to possibly murder him. On the topic of Archie, I don’t think we’ve met him yet. Unless, he is Wes. Wes is my only suspect for Archie. If not Wes, we haven’t met Archie yet which I kind of like that concept because it opens the door to Season 2 which HBO needs to green light NOW. My hopes for the potential next season is for us to be revealed Archie, to know more about who he is and why he has “a face only a mother could love.” I want to know what became of Rose Waters, I want to know how the whole Tom and Chip Thing plays out in the end. My head is empty for what mysteries could take place next because I’m still shaking from that incredible episode.
I’d say Marlene learned her lesson. This reveal made so much sense and it left no room for plot holes unlike Charlotte Drake and Alex. The original truly has so many plot holes and I was expecting such a lacklustre reveal for this one but it just MADE SENSE. I’m not questioning anything other than WHAT DOES ARCHIE LOOK LIKE. A revenge plot is very slasher movie style and I love how they weren’t afraid to go there with this show. The old show just wasn’t dark enough until we get to the dollhouse. Can we appreciate the game A set up for them to punish their bullies?! It was very dollhouse era and I was CHEERING.
Ugh, I could’ve done without the Ezra and Aria adopting Imogen’s baby situation. I don’t want to personally hear about them, I’m still mad they got the big wedding and Ezra suffered no consequences for stalking and grooming an underage girl. Tell me about Spencer and Toby or Hanna and Caleb instead. Still, Aria wanted a baby and she deserved to have one, even if it just had to be with Ezra. I got stuck here, that anger just bubbled back to the surface and the potential murder of Chip and Tom having to pay for his crimes really doesn’t make up for that. Another thing I could’ve done without was merging Riverdale and Pretty Little Liars into the same universe typically because Riverdale is a crack dream and I’m 99.9% sure the show runners and writers are on shrooms when they create episodes so let’s not forget this show exists in the same universe as parallel universes, ghosts and witchcraft. And somehow our world is also connected to this - a comment made about Cole Sprouse. Blissfully, I’m going to ignore this and treat it as a throw in for the Riverdale fans.
I saw a few people not liking the teen pregnancy storyline for Imogen and I typically don’t care for that trope as a whole because all my favourite shows seem to do it and it’s just not interesting to me personally. However, the way it was done just made sense. Imogen took risks and put herself under severe stress because she was raped and she’d also lost her mother in that small space of time. It wouldn’t be uncommon for her to not show that she cares about herself (that’s that on trauma). Did the pregnancy add anything to the over all show? Not really. But am I mad about the storyline and the way it was executed? Not at all. In fact, she was so BAD ASS in the fight to the death scene with Archie, the way he lifts her up and strangled her and she kicks him. She truly floored him while in labour with her baby. We need to just rave about that scene in general, it was very old horror movie. I love how they showed the accuracy of human survival in a very Laurie/Sidney way, the body can endure all of that and the person will get up again and again to fight for survival. I personally enjoy that in horror movies.
Let’s cover my recent theories and what I was right about this time around. I speculated that Kelly and Karen did an early twin swap and that the born Karen was murdered and Kelly took her name back. The twin swap did not play out, Kelly is Kelly. In theory, this all made much more sense with a Cassie and Lexi sister shadow concept. We can see that Tom favoured Karen and even went as far to say that he would rather Karen was alive instead if it had to be one of them. Everyone seemed to favour Karen from the dance teacher, to her parents to the kids at school. It’s no wonder Kelly tried to fill her shoes when she died while being in pain that she lost her twin sister. I speculated that Chip was the one who raped both Tabby and Imogen. He was too nice in the beginning until his character started to become creepy and give off incel vibes. That’s when I was like, girls stop looking at the football team and look to the ‘nice guy.’ you trusted. This was such a powerful scene, the courage Tabby and Imogen had to confront him and ask him why he betrayed them like that. It was beautiful and we got to see A’s motives clearly when he spared them and ran after Chip. So let’s talk about A and his motives and Angela Waters.
I speculated that Wes was Angela’s brother who was doing all the heavy work to get revenge for his sisters suicide. I thought that his intentions were purely to avenge Angela and hurt all the people who hurt her. I couldn’t think of anything that the mums could’ve done past generally being awful friends to Angela that we can see in their treatment of her (I.e the Halloween thing, the drugs thing). And I thought she was raped by Tom and then gave birth to his baby before the Y2K party and that baby was Chip who did the A work, the brains of the operation. We now know that Tom did in fact rape Angela but she wasn’t pregnant with his baby. Her high emotions at the Y2K party were a byproduct of the bullying from the moms of which was the result of Angela’s rape confession. It broke my heart the way these girls got an entire school to ghost another student, one who is supposed to be their friend, to make her feel invisible. That would drive anyone crazy. My heart broke for Angela that night. We also found out that Principal Clayton is the brains behind A and Angela’s father and that she has a secret brother called Archie who we don’t get to see (‘a face only a mother could love.’). They were both avenging the daughter/sister they lost and taking it upon themselves to punish bullies (which the moms were). This entire reveals leaves no room for plot holes, it just makes sense. I didn’t see the Angela and Mouse’s mom relationship coming, but I suppose it makes sense why she goes to the group for missing kids. She’s projecting her guilt into a bigger cause. I love that Imogen could acknowledge the mother who bullied and drove Angela to suicide and her own image of who her mother became. In this cancel culture society (of which I don’t take part in) it’s refreshing to see a young person being able to see the duality of a human being, being able to know that her mother was an awful teenager but she was also a loving mother and still choosing to love her and miss her.
Now let’s talk about the parallels. First of all, Archie is a very Mona type A. His motive aligns with the Mona terminology. Mona walked so Archie could run with a knife. Of course the brilliantly done party scenes where someone dies (I.e Angela’s suicide and Karen’s’ murder). Angela going down for Noa’s moms drugs and Noa going down for her mothers drugs. Tom raping Angela and Chip raping Tabby and Imogen. Twin jealousy (Spencer and Alex, Karen and Kelly). Secret sibling who torments the girls (Charlotte and Archie).
Now let’s talk about the casting and diversity. The casting is absolutely perfect because out of our main girls only one of them is white. PLL was a very white centric show and most of the POC characters were killed off. Whereas in this one, we haven’t yet had a POC death and we have multiple characters. I will say, there wasn’t enough LGBTQ+ like sure we have Mouse’s mothers and we later find out that Angela also lands on that spectrum but that’s not obvious, it wasn’t obvious to me that she was in a secret relationship. In the original we had Emily and Alison, Maya and Emily.. Emily and more girls. Why couldn’t one of the main girls be bi or lesbian? My money was on Tabby and I hope they explore that in season 2.
Karen was such a lacklustre mean girl. She wouldn’t survive in a room with Alison and Mona. Even the mums were more convincing mean girls than Karen. Twins are hard to do well, and I don’t think the actress was the best at it in comparison to Lindsey Lohan in the parent trap (But tbh Troian was worse at it). That was until her scenes in the final episodes. I loved Kelly in the end.Maia (Noa) gave me such Hailey Kiyiko acting vibes which I loved. I wasn’t fully convinced by Mouses’s actress in the beginning. And of course our queen, the standing ovation goes to Miss Bailee Madison. She was truly the stand out for me and reminds me of a young Drew Barrymore. I need more things with Bailee in. Everything she’s done, she’s done it well, even as a child.
Overall, I loved the show and found it very bingeable. I look forward to a possible second season. Although, I don’t know what other direction this could go other than Archie’s face reveal.

Hello can I have a Riverdale male matchup?
𝗦𝗘𝗫𝗨𝗔𝗟𝗜𝗧𝗬/𝗣𝗥𝗢𝗡𝗢𝗨𝗡𝗦: Biromantic Pansexual and Genderfluid; He/They (though I'm biologically woman irl)
𝗔𝗣𝗣𝗘𝗔𝗥𝗔𝗡𝗖𝗘: 20 years old, 5'1", Southeast Asian. Chubby with brunette bob cut hair, chocolate brown eyes, and a small beauty mark on my forehead. My style is in between soft grunge and soft punk (not a big fan of dress except for occasions) but loves to wear Korean makeup style
𝗣𝗘𝗥𝗦𝗢𝗡𝗔𝗟𝗜𝗧𝗬: Muggleborn Ravenclaw with a patronous spirit of Hummingbird, an INFJ (last time I checked at MBTI test), my enneagram is 4w5 and my moral alignment is Neutral Good. I may have a slight introverted tendencies and awkward nature, I describe myself as fiery, swears like a sailor, confident, jokester, and, passionate. Religious, super talkative, sometimes hyper (because of excitement), giggly (I always laugh for stupid reasons), nerdy, actually sweet and nice though I can be aloof, intimidating, and scary when I get so angry. I tend to become really fiesty, stands boldly on what I believe (claiming myself as a realist though some of my views doesn't makes sense), and unbothered to be true to myself, clumsy, stubborn, hopeless romantic, young-at-heart, unfortunate and inattentive. I have "no bs" towards the people that I hate, sarcasam and savagery is my main language. But on the other side, I overthink a lot and cry over small things many times, small mistakes leads me to provoke me even more that sounds like a drama queen, yet recognizes a soft spot for dumb jokes, cheesy pickup lines and prefer people with a good sense of humour who see myself as equal. Chill in academics, but very competitive that manages to the top even for my dreams---I'm very dedicated on what I want for my life, and I display modesty and gracefulness towards some people that deserves respect. One notable feature about her is her multi-potentiality due to being naturally gifted in artistic fields (this includes singing).
𝗜𝗡𝗧𝗘𝗥𝗘𝗦𝗧𝗦: Arts, choir, poetry, karaoke, literature, history, makeup, beauty pageants, fun/deep/dumb conversations, expanding my knowledge in Christianity, documentaries (about saints), reading interesting stuffs, talking about social issues, and creative writing, chilling both indoors and outdoors.
𝗛𝗢𝗕𝗕𝗜𝗘𝗦: Drawing, singing, dancing when nobody's around (I'm very bad at it), sharing nerdy or opinionated thoughts, walking like a model (if I ever feel so confident), sleeping, listening to music (from rock to kpop), chatting or browsing on social media, watching videos on YouTube, making terrible jokes/puns, watching cartoons, writing, reading interesting things, and conceptualizing my artworks. I also used to study Italian language a bit
You are very cool and I think you would be good with
Tumblr media
I think they both would be great with you. They would love your style and they way you act. Betty is also very religious and sweet. Jughead can be aggressive but he is commonly sweet he also adores your style. Betty would love to watch documentaries with you. Jughead would try to walk like a model and embarrass himself with Betty.

AFTERTASTE PART SEVEN
Pairing: Archie Andrews X Reader
Summary: In which two best friends since childhood test whether sex and friendship can co-exist without causing conflict. Including OC's Flick and Cherry, a bisexual and lesbian in a sapphic relationship who are best friends of Y/N.
Song: Dream Boy by Waterparks
Warnings: swearing
Words: 2.1K
MASTERLIST
feedback is always appreciated
Tumblr media
Y/F and Y/M Robins were far from perfect parents. Y/F had the mental age of a toddler at times, and being an estate agent who always has to go the extra mile- he often wasn't home when his wife needed him the most. Y/M, on the other end of things, had been a stay at home mum until Y/N turned 16 last summer, and now she helped with all the administrative work for Mayor McCoy. She was a maternal creature which, coupled with her brilliant sarcasm, made for some explosive conversations. The two met on the first day of university and got married a week after the last.
When Y/M first found out she was pregnant with little Y/S Robins, the two realised they wanted a quiet bubble of a town to raise their children and grow up with them. But it wasn't until their second daughter was about to turn seven until they found their forever home in the quaint town of Riverdale. Ten years passing before their eyes, and the picturesque place didn't seen all that anymore.
Jason Blossom's death had nothing to do with the short gunshot sounding over the waves of Sweetwater River, the noise which woke Y/N from her sweet unmemorable dreams every few nights. The summer days rolled into early August without anyone caring, Y/N spending most of them at Cheryl's side listening intently to her past adventures with her brother. Betty threw herself into an internship at a publication house; Flick and Cherry had volunteered at a summer camp, and Archie was helping his dad out more and more with constructions job.
Although it hadn't been the start to the relationship Y/N had hoped for- the nervous giggles and hand holding, short and sweet kisses on late night walks followed by poetry worthy cuddling. There was a magnificent silver lining as Archie's muscles gained definition, and he suited the sweaty builder look far too well.

"Earth to my gorgeous queen? Y/N/N?" Cheryl quizzed her friend, who currently resided at the poolside of Thornehill Manor. Her mind was off on a glorious tangent about her rendezvous in the kitchen at two in the morning. Fixing herself a glass of water, when Archie slips his hand into her pyjama shorts, his other around her mouth muffling her needy moans.
The red headed beauty shoved her y/h/c friend playfully, warm skin sweaty under her pale touch. Y/N blinked innocently and sent her an apologetic smile, "What?"
"I asked if you've thought about dating anyone else since Clayton?" The fiery ginger girl enquired with her usual upbeat tone.
Cheryl knew she had a unique quality about her which made it almost impossible for Y/N to lie to her face. The y/h/c girl scrunched up her nose, hiding the smile the idea of Archie Andrews brought to her face. 'Yes. We started off as fuck buddies but never actually fucked. Then I drunkenly asked him to be my boyfriend, now a month later I think we may genuinely work out.'
"Maybe." Y/N bit her bottom lip, listening to her friend's squeal as she squeezed her sun tanned arm.
"I knew it! You have this euphoric glow you only get when someone else makes you climax." The redhead affirmed confidently, watching the Robins girl's eyes bug out before hitting her arm, "Y/N/N, you know your secret's safe with me."
"Fine." She sighed and took a sip of her fruity cocktail, "It started off as just fooling around, honestly I just needed to let off some steam after everything. I knew he was into the kinds of things I was, I mean he used to tease me about it non stop. And it was good, so good I stopped being a pussy and asked him to be my boyfriend."
"Holy freaking hell!" The Blossom girl grinned with excitement, "Dare I ask, who is it?"
Y/N deadpanned at her friend, "Guess."
"Please don't tell me it's that muscular oaf Reggie, he's pretty but there's not exactly much going on upstairs." Cheryl tapped her temples and rolled her eyes at the thought.
"Nope."
The ginger thought for a moment, consulting her liquid courage and splashing her feet around the waters edge, "It's Archie."
All it took was a side-eyed glance at the y/h/c girl's blooming rosy cheeks to know she definitely wasn't wrong. Y/N severely lacked the ability to lie, even if her tone held conviction, her features were far too expressive and told the truth all on their own. It's not like they were hiding it from anyone, but the past four weeks had gone far too quickly without any moments to spare for the world around them. They slept together each night, the majority of that time not actually spent sleeping, but they hadn't been given the chance yet to explore more romantic avenues.
"It's fucking Archie Andrews- you're fucking Archie Andrews and don't you dare deny it." Cheryl gawked in her gorgeous white and nude bikini, watching as her friend lay back against the hot marble slabs which encased the large pool with the largest grin adorning her plump lips.
"We haven't had sex yet, so technically you aren't completely correct." Y/N winked but carried on before the girl exploded with a hundred questions and could never be turned off, "Trust me, I want to, and I'm sure he does too. But you know, it's his first time, I want it to be perfect for him."
"Y/N/N, you really love him, don't you?" Cheryl gagged to begin with, but she found it sweet in truth. She wanted someone to hold, who would hold her right back just as tight for no other reason than needing to.
Y/N sat back up and paddled her feet, "You have no idea, Cher."

Need me to pick you up from Cheryl's?
Tiger 💛
Awe cute we love a bromance, and it's all good my mommas coming now anyways :))
Hours had elapsed far too fast and soon the summer heat simmered into cool waves of wind brushing over sun kissed skin. Cheryl's arms were clasped around the blonde's shoulders in a tight embrace.
"Thank you so much, Y/N/N, I don't know what I'd do without you!" The Blossom girl professed with sparkling eyes and a brilliant smile.
Y/N beamed up at her, fingers carding through her damp y/h/c hair as she looked over her shoulder to see her mum pulling into the driveway, "You don't need to thank me, Cher, friends look after each other. Message me if you need me, okay?"
Cheryl promised she would and the two teen girls hugged goodbye, with Y/N soon heading home- listening to her mother gossip about Hal and Alice's screaming match last night, Y/N loved her inability to keep her mouth shut sometimes.
"Mom," The y/h/c stopped her mid sentence and received a side eyed glance in response, "I need to tell you something and you're totally not allowed to freak out while you're driving."
Y/M's eyes widened and her grip tightened around the steering wheel, her daughters very rarely confided in her. While she knew her youngest was safe in her promiscuity, neither of Y/M Robins' girls ever shared their secrets so for the most part she took finding out into her own hands.
"Honey," The forty four year old's calm tone was hardly comforting to the teenager, "if this is about you and Archie fooling around, your father and I figured that out a long time ago, like so long ago. Who do you think does your laundry? When your underwear starting looking like dental floss, we caught on pretty quickly."
Y/N felt like a deer in headlights, "Mum, what the hell?" Her cheeks heated to an inhuman temperature.
"It's nothing to be embarrassed about, as long as you're being safe and he's-"
"For the second time today, and I can't believe I'm saying this to you, but I am not having sex with Archie Andrews!" Y/N's high pitched voice sounded through the car. It truly was a blessing and a curse to have such open minded parents in situations like this. She thought about telling her mother the truth, but Y/M was a blabber mouth as well as a gossip, so Y/N chose to withhold certain pieces of information.
The Robins matriarch dropped the subject but didn't forget about her daughter's tone, and continued to ramble on about how odd she found Penelope Blossom and the whole Blossom family in general. "Like why on Earth is Rose in a wooden wheelchair? They know it's the twenty first century, right?"
As expected, the Robins household was once again filled with warm laughter and copious amounts of food. The topic of Jason was skimmed over, and Y/S found herself away from the dinner table. The eldest Robins sibling was currently pleading with Alice as she began shoving all of Polly's belongings in the boot of Hal's car. She couldn't comprehend life without her best friend, not after losing Jason. They were meant to be going travelling together for a year- working the worst jobs and staying up all night to watch the sun rise in different countries. But instead, Y/S's eyes were blinded by tears as she screamed down the street at the speeding car, with Polly Cooper taken out of her life indefinitely.
Y/N was oblivious to the dark inner workings of the Cooper clan, Betty's knowledge about her and Archie unbeknownst to the loved up teens. She'd spent every second not occupied by her internship trying to justify the romantic act as a fleeting moment of loneliness fuelled by alcohol. She wrote in her diary ideas on how she could win Archie back over, not knowing it was in fact, too late. Betty found herself hopelessly in love with the boy next door, unfortunately for her, the girl across the road was the only one his mind found.
Archie and Y/N washed up while their parents resided to the living room with three glasses and a bottle of white wine. The short girl turned the tap off after placing the last utensil on the draining board, flicking her sudsy hands at the boy's face. "What the-"
She didn't give him a chance to finish that thought, jumping up and wrapping her legs around his torso- planting a kiss onto his lips, then cheeks, then forehead. The two fell entranced by each other, planting pecks across nape of her neck and top of his head.
"Son," Fred's voice called out from the next room and the two immediately pulled apart, hearts beating in their ears, "we're going in a minute."
"Alright." He replied, placing his girlfriend on the floor once more.
"I wish you'd stay." Y/N pouted childishly, she meant the words entirely but hated feeling overbearing. Her life had been turned upside down this summer, it started off with her unable to fall asleep with another person next to her- now Archie's chest was her most comfortable pillow and is arms were the warmest blanket.
"Tomorrow night instead, Princess? I promised my dad I'd spend more time with him before senior year." The boy reasoned, holding her close and unknowingly feeling the exact same way, he adored holding her by her waist and pulling her close under the duvet.
"Monopoly night at yours?" She grinned and he nodded back in reply, the two sharing a final kiss in the kitchen before walking into the hallway.
Y/N felt at ease as she wished the two a goodnight and headed up to bed. She took off her tea dress and replaced it with Archie's bulldog t-shirt, managing to reach the same length on her thighs as her dress did.

This the user formerly known as middleagedresidentofriverdale. Over here now due to problems with the old blog.
Now for my actual ask: how're you feeling about our chances of an eventual Bughaed reconciliation? I've been awfully down lately, due to spoilers, and I could use a pick-me-up. (If you're up to giving one.)
hello, love!
sorry to hear about your blog, doll. tumblr does love to make a mess of things.
i feel the same as i always have, tbh. riverdale didn't invent the wheel. actually, they're not even particularly good at spinning it. everything they've done has been decently predictable and in another show, if the spoilers pan out the way we've heard, they would have spent time setting this up rather than treating their show like click bait.
for all the speculation and spoilers and lack of context freaking out we all a lot of us do, the show never actually delivers on anyone's worst case scenario. or, for the other shippers, their best case. they can twist it all they want but we all have screenshots of the post 5x08 meltdowns, right? that is not the outcome they wanted or thought they were getting.
i've made my own fair share of "bughead reminds me of [insert ship]..." observations but mostly just for fun. i watched a lot of those teen shows casually and never once thought, "oh for sure brooke and lucas are going to end up together forever" or "dan and blair? 5 seasons in? goodbye, chuck and serena!" it was always clear to me, just watching the story and not really getting into the fandom and having people harass, whisper, and yell at me nonstop about how wrong i was, what the stories on these shows was going to be.
(i know there are some hardcore dan and blair shippers but when i watched it, and i wasn't overly invested in any ship in that show, i thought it was clear that she was running away from her feelings and dan was a really good friend to her during that time. that, uh, well, i'm not saying it's a trope that gets used a lot but i am definitely saying it's a thing that gets used a lot)
i'm also not saying that any other ships need to make sense for them to happen (that's never stopped riverdale from inserting b/archie randomly for drama before), i'm saying that i think the show is telling me bughead is going to kiss and make up, even if it doesn't happen on the timeline we want.
but also, that bughead shippers are very unique in the way that they're the only fandom i've ever really been invested in that totally lets antis tell them how their ship is going to go. bughead has had more meaningful interactions in the handful of episodes they had in s5 than b/archie did and they were sleeping together. ships that come in to keep the main couples from getting back together are never going to be more than they are.🤷‍♀️ especially when the set up is particularly convenient, if you feel me.
it's not like bughead hasn't been telling us who they are for 5 years now. why a lot of shippers don't listen to them i will never know. even the show has gone out of the way to show us that they're at their best when they're together and i don't think that's going to magically change (ha, insert supernatural au joke here) after all this time. if they're not even doing the tbk thing until s6, will betty even be in a better place by the finale? we don't know yet. if the reunion is postponed into s6 then i wouldn't be surprised if that becomes part of it. we'll see how it all shakes out in the upcoming weeks.💜

Okay, for the anon that asked why Ceci why she won't let minors follow her 18+ NSFW blog. This actually goes for any blog that has 18+ minors DNI.
To start, yeah, we know that minors of a certain age have hormones, know about sex, might even be having sex, and see suggestive stuff on TV and in movies, ads, magazines, etc. Like, yeah, you're seeing stuff on Riverdale or whatever show is popular among teens now. However, knowing about and having sex (hopefully with someone very close in age to you and hopefully you're being safe, as well. Use a condom and the pill or an IUD. Basically, use two kinds of birth control) and seeing suggestive things on TV - Riverdale/teen shows are filming and showing porn - is very different from reading or watching porn and being in an online 18+ community where the adults don't want minors on their blogs.
And, yeah, we know you're gonna find and consume the content - we can't really stop that but that's why we tag things appropriately and keep them out of main tags (at least the good/responsible blogs/blogs that know to keep smut out of the haikyuu x reader tag, etc. do). But we don't want you to interact with it. It's not just about your safety and comfort. It's about ours, too.
If you get busted interacting with an adult on a nsfw blog about explicit nsfw topics, you're not the one that is going to face serious legal trouble. You're not the one that is going to face the serious, long term consequences.
We could face fines, jail time, being labeled as a pedophile, have to register on a sex offender list. That can make us lose our job or not get jobs. And if the blog you follow has kids? They can lose their kids because minors ignored the biggest rule of nsfw blogs - 18+ minors DNI. That means don't follow, don't send asks, don't like, don't reblog. Just stay away.
The rules of the blog owner aren't just about your safety and comfort. It's about theirs, too, and their safety and comfort on their blog matters, too, and matters more than if you feel comfortable seeing and interacting with their content. So respect their rules. Wait until you're 18. This also goes if you, a minor, wants to write smut. We can't stop you. But, please, have your age in your bio if you're going to write or follow NSFW blogs. If you don't want to share your exact age for your safety, that's fine. You can put I'm a minor or I'm 16 - 17. You don't have to share your exact age if you're uncomfortable with it but you do need to specify if you're a minor or not. For instance, it can be left at mid-teens. Or late-30s.
You are in control of your internet experience. That's why we have rules like 18+ minors DNI and try our best to tag nsfw things properly and why we block minors/people who don't respect us and our rules. We do the proper tags so you can avoid them or block them but do us a favor and respect blogs that have "minors DNI" in their bio and rules. Don't follow. Don't like. Don't reblog. Don't send asks. Don't interact.
Even if you think you're mature enough for it as a minor, if you disregard/ignore/don't follow the rules, you're not actually mature enough for the 18+ community simply because you're only thinking about yourself and your comfort, and not the person behind the blog and their safety and comfort.
Hope this helped! - 🦖
All minors who feel an urge to interact with 18+ blogs should take a peek at this. 🦖 explains it perfectly.
Like I’ve said before many times, my main blog is and will always be SFW and I love interacting with you guys here. Even if I am on my hiatus now, I will continue interacting with people on here too so feel free to come talk to me abt your day!
But my side is for me and my more mature thoughts and feelings and I shouldnt have to feel uncomfortable or worry about minors accessing it. Thank you guys for understanding.
Thanks again for explaining it so eloquently my dear!

Tumblr media
My Father was a bad guy. He’s associated with one of the worst people I’ve ever met, Hiram Lodge. He was the absolute worst person, especially with how he was trying to buy up the area where my cousin lives! My Father didn’t seem to give any fucks about the ‘reject’ side of the family. I was done with his shit. I packed my stuff up and decided I was gonna move to Riverdale. I had called my cousin Toni before I made the decision and she agreed to let me stay there, after she talked our Nana of course. I was so excited to see her, it’s been forever! I made sure I grabbed some money from my Father and left for Riverdale. When I got there I knew no one from the Northside of town went there, so I started my walk from the bus stop. Lucky for me I didn’t bring everything I had, so it was easy to carry my shit. Once I crossed over to the Southside, I could instantly see the difference. It was like the town didn’t give a shit about this side. Toni really wasn’t lying. I was pretty sure I was close to the trailer park, but honestly wasn’t sure. I looked down at my phone to call Toni, but I ended up walking into someone. 
“Hey, watch it bitch!” The guy growled and I looked up to see a guy in a black studded vest and dark eyeliner on. 
“Sorry dude, no need to be an asshole.” I said and went to keep walking, but he grabbed my arm and stopped me. 
“You’re new around here, clearly, so let me tell you how this works. I’m with the best gang in town, The Ghoulies, and you can’t talk that way to me. So, you’re gonna make it up to me.” He said with a smirk and looked me up and down. I rolled my eyes and got out of his grip. 
“Yeah right, idiot.” I said and continued walking. I thought that would just be the end of it, but he grabbed me and slammed me against a wall. I hit my head, but it was probably just gonna leave a killer headache. 
“Now you’re really gonna have to make it up to me.” He growled and pulled out a knife. My eyes widened and I gulped. 
“Be a good girl and you won’t get hurt.” He smirked. I felt my blood run cold and I knew what was about to happen. 
“Hey! Get the fuck off her!” Someone shouted and the guy looked back to see a tall guy with a snake tattoo on his neck. He must be with the Serpents, like Toni! 
“This isn’t your business Snake.” He growled. 
“I said-” Tall guy said, pulling out his own knife. 
“Get the fuck off her.” He growled, stepping closer to him. The guy holding me had fear flash in his eyes, but recovered quickly. 
“Whatever, bitch aint even worth it.” He said and shoved himself off me. He ran off and the tall guy walked up to me, putting his knife away. 
“You alright?” He asked and I nodded, picking some of my stuff off the ground. 
“Thanks, I just got into town and clearly don’t know much.” I said and he chuckled. 
“Clearly. What are you doing here anyway? Who the hell wants to come to Riverdale?” He asked and I gave a small smile. 
“I’m moving in with my cousin.” I answered and his eyes widened slightly. 
“Is your cousin Toni Topaz?” He asked and my smile grew. 
“Yeah, do you know her?” I asked and he smiled. 
“She’s one of my best friends.” He chuckled. 
“Thank God, I was just about to call her because I might be a little lost.” I laughed. 
“Where are you trying to go?” He asked. 
“Sunnyside Trailer Park.” I answered and he laughed. 
“Yeah, you’re a little lost. How about I give you a ride.” He offered and I smiled. 
“Really? That’d be great!” I said and he walked over to his bike. 
“Hop on.” He said. I got on the back, while keeping my stuff on my arms, and wrapped my arms around his waist. 
“I’m Sweet Pea by the way.” He said and I smiled. 
“Y/N Y/L/N.” I answered and he smiled back.
“Hold on tight.” He said and we sped off. I’ve never been on a motorcycle before, but I was loving it! We made it to Toni’s trailer pretty quickly and Sweet Pea helped me carry my stuff to the door. I knocked and Toni answered with a huge smile. 
“Y/N/N!” She said and pulled me in for a hug. 
“Sweet Pea? What are you doing here?” She asked, confused. 
“Y/N here got herself into trouble with a Ghoulie, I was riding by and saved her.” He answered and Toni’s eyes widened. 
“What? Are you okay?” He asked and I smiled. 
“I’m fine T, Sweet Pea saved me before that idiot could do anything.” I said and she sighed in relief. 
“Well, thanks Pea.” She said and Sweet Pea smiled back. 
“Of course Toni.” He said. 
“Alright, well I’ll see you later tonight.” She said and Sweet Pea nodded. 
“Why don’t you come along?” He asked. 
“Where?” I asked. 
“The Wyrm. It’s the bar I work at and also the Serpents hang out.” She answered and I shrugged. 
“Yeah sure, sounds like fun.” I smiled. 
“Awesome, well I’ll see you guys later, I gotta go meet up with Fangs.” Sweet Pea said and left. 
“Fangs?” I asked and Toni chuckled. 
“I’ll introduce you later.” She said, pulling me inside. 
“Why does everyone have such weird names around here?” I asked and she laughed. 
“They’re nicknames, I’m sure you’ll get your own soon enough.” She said. 
The two of us spend the day unpacking and catching up. I realized that I didn’t know my cousin as well as I thought I did. I mean, how the hell did I not know she was bisexual!? She said that she was more into girls than guys though. Talking with her made me realize I made the right decision to come here. When it hit seven she told me we were going to the bar. I was excited to see where she worked, it sounded like a really cool place. When we got there everyone looked our way, most people greeted Toni and looked at me weirdly. 
“Yo Toni! Over here!” A short guy shouted and Toni pulled me along with her. 
“Hey guys, this is my cousin Y/N, Y/N this is Fangs, Jughead, and well you met Sweet Pea already.” She introduced me. 
“Toni! Let’s go!” An older man called her and she looked at me. 
“Sorry, gotta work. Jones, mind keeping an eye on these two for me?” She asked. 
“What? Why us?” The short guy, Fangs, asked. 
“Because, I don’t trust you two around my cousin.” She said and Sweet Pea rolled his eyes. 
“I literally saved her from a Ghoulie earlier.” He said and Toni just shrugged. “Don’t care, you two are the biggest flirts in the world and I wouldn’t be surprised if you got her drunk.” She said and walked off. 
“She’s always been protective.” I laughed. 
“I think Toni left something out when she was telling us about you.” Fangs said and I furrowed my brow. 
“What?” I asked. 
“She didn’t mention how cute you are.” He said and I couldn’t help but blush. 
“This is exactly why Toni asked me to watch you too.” Jughead said, rolling his eyes. 
“Yo Hogeye! Two beers!” Sweet Pea called and the man that called my cousin nodded. He brought Sweet Pea two beers and he offered one to me. I smiled and took it from him. 
“That’s the other reason.” Jughead sighed. 
“She’ll be fine Jones.” Sweet Pea said and I smiled. 
“Yeah, it’s just one beer.” I said. 
Getting to know Toni’s friends was awesome! Jughead shared the same sense of humor I did, he was smart, passionate, and just seemed like he’d be an awesome friend. Fangs was really cool, he was a flirt, but not as much as Sweet Pea was, and he seemed genuinely caring and sweet. Sweet Pea clearly had a sense of loyalty, but had a short temper. I knew that I would get along with everyone easily and I would really like living here. 
*Six Months Later* 
I’ve been here for half a year now and I haven’t heard anything from my Father, surprisingly. I had joined the Serpents, which everyone was very supportive of. Toni felt more like a sister to me than a cousin now and it was amazing. Jughead and I were good friends, but Sweet Pea and Fangs had become my best friends. I found myself crushing on both of them for different reasons and I felt a little guilty about it… 
I was currently at the bar working, but Toni had off tonight. She was helping Nana with something at home. I was watching Sweets and Fangs playing pool and smiled at the boys. They were betting like always and I smirked, Sweet Pea was bound to win, like always. I have never once seen Fangs beat him. The two of them walked up to the bar and Sweet Pea looked very smug, while Fangs looked sad. 
“Let me guess, Fangs is buying again?” I asked. 
“You know it Angel.” Sweets said with a smirk. 
“Maybe you’ll buy for me too when I get off in an hour?” I asked, batting my eyelashes slightly. 
“Of course Cutie, anything for you.” Fangs said and I felt my heart flutter at each of their nicknames for me. 
“Perfect, well here you go, two beers.” I said, placing the bottles on the bar. 
When I finally got off work I went to go find my two friends. I thought they would just be at the bar, but they weren’t. I was confused and decided to look near the pool table, sure enough they were there playing another game. 
“I thought you guys already played your game for tonight? What are you doing an all or nothing thing?” I asked and the two turned to face me. 
“Uh, yeah…” Fangs said and I looked at the two confused. 
“What are you guys betting this time?” I asked and they looked at each other. 
“If you wanna try and come up with a lie, you might wanna be a little more discreet about it.” I said with a small smirk. Sweet Pea sighed and looked back at me. 
“Fine, we were playing to see who got to ask you out…” He said and my eyes widened. 
“W-What?” I asked with a blush. 
“Hypothetically, who would you say yes to?” Fangs asked with a hopeful smile. 
“Dude, you can’t just ask her that!” Sweets said. 
“Why not? It’s not like we can just finish the game and do the bet now.” He said and the two looked back at me. 
“So?” Fang asked. 
“U-Uh, honestly?” I asked and they nodded. 
“Both of you.” I answered and their eyes widened. 
“What?” They asked at the same time. 
“Honestly, I have a crush on both of you. I’ve been feeling a little guilty about it because you’re both amazing and if I dated one I would still like the other and that just not fair.” I answered and they looked at each other then smiled. 
“What if you didn’t have to date just one?” Fangs asked. 
“Huh?” I asked. 
“What if you dated both of us?” Sweets asked and my eyes widened. 
“What, like a poly relationship?” I asked and they nodded. 
“And you both would be alright with that?” I asked. 
“Hey, if I have to share you with someone I’d rather it be my best friend.” Sweets answered. 
“Yeah, besides we’ve hooked up with each other before so there’s clearly some feelings there.” Fangs laughed and my eyes widened. 
“Really?” I asked and they nodded. A smile slowly made its way onto my face and I looked at the two boys I was attracted to. 
“I think this is a great idea.” I said and Sweets instantly pulled me to him. 
“You have no idea how happy you just made me with those words Angel.” He said and kissed me. I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him back. 
“Hey! She’s my girl now too!” Fangs whined and pulled me away from Pea and crashed his lips onto mine. I smiled and laughed slightly. 
“Hey!” Sweets growled and I pulled away from Fangs. 
“Alright, rule number one, no fighting over each other.” I said and they looked at each other. 
“Fine, but he can’t hog you!” They said at the same time and I laughed. 
“You two were made for each other.” I said and hugged both of them. This town just keeps getting better for me!

Cheryl//maple syrup
Request: Can you do the secret and sins when Veronica comments on the Cheryl’s twincest and the reader defends Cheryl even though the reader kinda diss likes Cheryl.
hey! how is everyone? i hope you’re all well and good! i may have slightly cheated a bit and copy and pasted a previously written out bit from another request where they’re playing secrets and sins. but that’s only because i didn’t see the point in writing the same dialogue again. anywayyyy enjoy! 
It seems that whenever Cheryl Blossom arrives at a party, the party atmosphere disappears. Maybe it’s her grating personality or overbearing need to be liked, whatever it is, within ten minutes of her and Chuck gate crashing Jughead’s unwanted birthday party, there’s already tension. 
Which is not made any better by the suggestion of secrets & sins. Your friends are gathered in a circle in the living room, while you sit off to the side. You want to eavesdrop, but you don’t want to reveal your deepest, darkest secrets, not to your best friends and definitely not to Cheryl. 
It’s clear everyone that’s been roped into this stupid game doesn’t want to be there. Betty shifts in her seat uncomfortably and stares at you with pleading eyes. You shoot her an unsure smile back before taking a sip of your drink and she drops your gaze, glancing at Archie before staring down at the floor. 
Cheryl is the only one that looks like she’s enjoying herself, but you’re not surprised. Chaos and the chance to get dirt on everyone so she can control them even more than she already does is what Cheryl lives for.
You glare at the red-head, who’s smiling brightly as she looks around at her victims and when her eyes land on you, her eyes narrow and the smile is replaced by a smirk. 
“What’s wrong Y/n? Did nobody pick you to be on their team?” She asks, her bright red lips forming a perfect pout and you can’t help but stare at them for a few seconds longer than you should. You feel your face heat up and look away, blaming the alcohol for the affects you’re feeling and refusing to believe that you’ve just thought of Cheryl Blossom as attractive. 
A shiver runs up your spine at the thought and you lips pull into a pout as you stare down at the now empty cup in your hands. You scratch at the plastic and listen to the mumbles and whispers of the teenagers stood and sat around you. 
Whoever isn’t partaking in Secrets and Sins, have gathered around to watch and judge, and you can’t help but lean in a little closer, they may be some of your closest friends, but you can’t help wanting to know what they’ve been hiding from one another...you’re only human and at least you’re not as bad as Cheryl. 
Cheryl lives of rumours. Like Gretchen Wieners with smaller and redder hair. 
“What the hell is Secrets and Sins?” Jughead asks, all eyes on Cheryl as she moves around in a circle, eyeing everyone suspiciously as she starts to explain the rules. 
“Its a variation on Truth or Dare…in which we own our truths by telling it like it is. I’ll start the game with…Veronica Lodge.” She smirks and you roll your eyes at her. 
“Naturally.” Veronica sighs and you pat her shoulder. 
“Let’s begin with the day you and your mob wife of a mother came to town for a so-called fresh start.” She says, her eyes filled with accusations and anger before she’s even gotten to her question. 
You really don’t know why so many people like her, well you do, it’s because she’s rich and she bullies people into being her friend because she’s unable to make them any other way. 
She’s snobby, spoilt and just plain mean, but that doesn’t stop you from sometimes staring at her for longer than you want to and definitely should. 
“Tell us Veronica, what’s so fresh about defiling Archie Andrews in a closet?”
“That was your doing.” She replies confused, her arms crossed defensively against her chest.
“Moving on to dear Daddy Lodge…” She interrupts, getting more and more angry by the second. “Isn’t it true that your father, from prison, illegally purchased the drive-in land? Which makes me wonder, what else is he doing behind bars?” She continues and you glance to your side at Joaquin, who shares a very suspicious look with FP
“Well, I can’t speak for my father…but I can think of someone with a very dirty secret. Specifically, Cheryl killing her very own brother.” The tension in the room shifts and your eyes widen. 
As much as you dislike Cheryl, you know how close her and Jason were and you knew how much it hurt and how she’s still hurting now because of his death. You’ve seen her crying underneath the bleachers after school, you see how her eyes are a little more dull than they used to be. They don’t sparkle as much when she talks and when she’s not spreading hate, she’s just not saying anything at all. 
She smiles less when with her friends, and sometimes you think the only reason she’s horrible to people is so she can feel something. But that doesn’t excuse it and so you shake your head and earn a few confused looks as you try to stop yourself from defending Cheryl Majorie Blossom. 
“Everyone knows how much I loved my brother.” Cheryl defends herself.
“Exactly.” Veronica replies. “But did you love him, maybe in ways that a sister shouldn’t love a brother?” She continues and you watch as Cheryl becomes more and more upset. “And as you got older, Jason started to think it was strange, unnatural. So he chose Polly over you. So you shot him between the eyes with one of your father’s many hunting rifles.”
Her shoulders slump a little and her bottom lip quivers as she looks around the room helplessly. The confident look she usually has, has slipped off like a mask, revealing a very sad girl underneath and suddenly you find yourself standing up. 
“That’s enough Veronica.” You say, surprising everyone, including Cheryl. “Just leave her alone, it’s not worth it.” You add quietly and slowly sit back down again. 
Veronica hold her hands up in defence and you force a smile before going back to picking at the plastic of your cup. 
“I don’t need you to defend me.” Cheryl seethes, her eyes full of hatred as she looks at you, and for some reason it stings. You’re used to her not liking you, but her hating you, hurts you for some unknown reason and you have to take a few deep breaths in order to stop the ache in your chest. 
“This game is sick.” Dilton adds and Cheryl uses the distraction to wipe away the tears on her cheek. “I wanna go next.” He adds making everyone look at him.
“Thats the spirit, Doiley. What secrets do you have to reveal to us?” Chuck grins. 
“I saw Ms. Grundy’s car by Sweetwater River the day Jason went missing.” He says and everyone gasps. People mumble and whisper around you and Cheryl stares straight at Dilton, her eyes narrow. “I told Betty and Jughead, and then Ms. Grundy quit her job and left Riverdale, like, two days later. And let’s not forget that Archie was also at Sweetwater River that morning.”
“Oh, my God.” Cheryl whips her head round to look at Archie. “Colour me shocked. Archie Andrews, is that why you became a mediocre musician overnight? Because you and Ms. Four-Eyes were pulling a Mary Kay Letourneau?”
“Don’t say anything. Don’t get in the gutter with them.” Veronica mutters while glaring at Cheryl. 
“Wait, what? Andrews was banging a teacher?” Chuck asks, his tone a mix of surprise and impressed and you roll your eyes at him. “I wish I would’ve known. I would have added you and Ms. Grundy to the book of conquests.”
“Classy, Chuck, as always.”
“Wait a second.” Cheryl interrupts. “That also explains why Archie can’t seem to keep a girlfriend to save his life. He’s got serious mommy issues. Anything to say for yourself Arch? Were you a victim or a perpetrator?”
“Dilton Doiley plays with guns.” Betty tries to change the subject but she’s immediately shut down.
“Big whoop, Betty. So Doiley’s a psychopath. Everyone knows that.”  
“Well, I guess it’s my turn now. Boy, do I have a twisted secret to reveal, starring Betty Cooper.”
“Leave her the hell alone, Chuck.” Archie threatens.
“Shut up, Andrews.” He replies. “Look, you may get a free peep show every night, but you do not know her. Hell, Betty doesn’t even know herself. Everybody knows why I got suspended, but what you don’t know...she dressed up like a hooker, in a God-awful black wig, drugged me, handcuffed me in the Jacuzzi, and well, I almost drowned until she got me to say what she wanted to hear. And then she really lost it. She actually thought she was Polly. But, hey, you knew all about this right, Jughead?” He asks. For a second, the question hangs in the air, everyone trying to figure out what to say next and how to process what they’ve just been told. 
But then Jughead leaps forward at punches Chuck in face causing all hell to break loose. Everyone stands and FP shoves races forward to grab Chuck and throw him outside. 
While everyone else follows them outside, eagerly awaiting a fight, you stay back and watch as Cheryl disappears upstairs, quietly sniffling as she goes. You look at the front door and then at the stairs and sigh, knowing that this is not gonna end well. She’s gonna insult you and tell you to leave her alone, but at least you can say you tried to help and then you won’t feel bad. 
So you glance at the door one more time and pray that at least one person is filming whatever is happening out there, before wandering up the stairs in search for Cheryl. 
The slight scent of maple syrup and the sound of faint cries coming from the bathroom lets you know where she’s hiding and you quietly creep along the slightly creaky floorboards, trying to remember which ones to avoid after years of practice when sneaking into Archie’s room in order to break him out. 
You stop outside of the bathroom, light coming out of the cracks of the door and your hand hovers over the handle. 
“Whoever is out there, go away.” She sniffles and you roll your eyes. 
Turning on your heel, you start to walk away, but then you hear her sob and it makes you freeze. 
You let out a quiet groan and curse the side of you that can’t leave people that are crying alone, before making your way back to the bathroom and slowly opening the door. 
The first thing you see as you duck your hear around the door is Cheryl sat on the side of the bath. Her hands gripping the edges so hard that her knuckles have turned white. He hair has fallen in front of her face and you watch as she her shoulder shake and tears drip onto the bath mat. 
“Cheryl?” You whisper and she looks up, her eyes wide as she quickly scrambles to wipe away the tears that have ruined her makeup. “Are you okay?” You ask and walk into the room. You close the door behind you and lean against it and her expression hardens. 
“I’m having the best time.” She deadpans and you resist the urge to roll your eyes. God is she stubborn. 
“Look, I know we’re not exactly best friends. Most of the time, I don’t really like to be around you-” 
“Is this supposed to be making me feel better?” She asks and you shrug. 
“But you know that if you need someone to talk to that won’t judge you or really know anything about you, you can. I’ll just sit and listen and you can cry or rant or I dunno. Just, know you’re not alone. You may not get along with everyone in this town, but we will all be here for you if you need us, all you have to do is ask.” You say honestly but anxiously while playing with your fingers. 
She looks at you surprised, her lips part as if she’s going to say something and you’re sure she’s going to tell you to shut up and leave her alone, but instead she says thank you and you feel yourself relax a little. 
“It’s okay.” You nod. “And for the record, what Veronica said was out of line. Everyone knows how much Jason meant to you and for her to say that is just wrong. We all know you loved your brother...a normal amount.” You add the last bit quietly and she stares at you for a few seconds before a smile twitches at her lips. “Would you like me to leave you alone now?” You ask and she shakes her head. You look around the small bathroom, trying to figure out the best place to sit and she moves along a little so you can sit beside her. “Would you like me to sit with you until you feel better?” You ask and she nods slowly, her lip wobbling again. 
You sit beside her, place a gentle hand over hers and the two of you fall into a slightly awkward but not as bad as you thought it would be, silence. 
After ten minutes, Cheryl stands and makes her way over to the mirror. She swipes her fingers under her eyes to try and get rid of her ruined mascara before messing with her hair to try and get it back to looking like normal. 
“Do I look okay?” She turns to you and stands with her arms by her side. Your breath hitches when you look at her and you wonder how she looks so pretty even in the most unflattering light that is Archie Andrews’ bathroom. 
You stand in front of her and slowly tuck a piece of hair behind her ear and you watch as she takes a shaky breath. 
“Can I?” You ask, your fingers centimetres away from her cheek and she nods slowly, her eyes locked with yours and you feel yourself growing warm from the intensity. “There.” You smile once you’ve wiped a bit of mascara away from her cheek. 
She grabs her bag and pulls her lipstick from it, but when she goes to apply it, her hands shake and you take it from her gently. 
Your lips darts out between your tongue as you concentrate on keeping the lipstick in the lines, and you can feel her warm breath on your cheek. 
“There!” You smile proudly once your finished, but she grabs your arm before you can pull away properly as her lips connect with yours in an almost frantic kiss.
You gasp a little and then relax and kiss back just as frantically, but she pulls away after a few seconds and the two of you stare at each other wide-eyed and breathless. 
“Your lipstick’s ruined.” You whisper and her lips curl into a smile. 
“Worth it.” She replies before pulling you close to her and kissing you again.
