PROMPT — March 26th, Argument 

Summary: Veronica Lodge was done with her boyfriends Jughead, Sweet Pea, and Fangs not treating her like she should be when they forget another one of her events. So, she breaks up with them.

— — —

“No… No, Veronica, don’t… don’t do this, please.” Jughead whispered, begging, stepping closer to her in an attempt to hold her hand, plead with her. “Think this through.”

Veronica smiled sadly, wiping at her eyes in hopes it would keep her from crying but it only made it worse. “The thing is, I have thought this through, Jughead. I’ve held it in the last few times, but I can’t anymore. I can’t put in all the effort, I can’t pull your deadweight. All throughout the auction, instead of enjoying something I took months to plan, I got to debate with myself over staying in a relationship that clearly isn’t working or leaving.”

“Veronica, that’s not fair. We don’t get to talk about this?” Fangs cried, “we’re a team, we’re supposed to—”

I plan to start with, honestly, the most emotionally intense and draining project I’ve ever written, No Angel, for my favorite crackship that I still can’t believe never made it to the big screen because HOT DAMN they look so good together and there’s so much writing potential for these two characters. A big thank you to those who have read my fics in the past, left comments/kudos/bookmarks, and I hope you will feel inspired to do a re-read after these edits.

(I finally made a graphic I don’t loathe for this fic! Yay, also a huge thank you to @kittileepdx​ for beta-ing)

The first time Jughead steals something, he’s five. He doesn’t know what he’s doing at the time, really. All he knows is that he’s hungry, the chocolate bars are at eye level, and his mom is fussing with her wallet above him.

The first time Betty steals something, she’s thirteen. Jughead’s come to school without lunch three days in a row.

A Robin Hood AU with a whole lot of Robin's not named Robin.

     𝐈𝐍 𝐖𝐇𝐈𝐂𝐇 veronica never realized just how much darkness there was to riverdale, that was until she was staring into the hungry eyes of a snarling beast

or veronica is the new girl in town and is caught up in a love triangle between two brothers that aren’t as they seem.

“So it’s decided. We’ll spend this weekend on the Southside and hang out at the bar, which we haven’t done in ages, and fix up the trailer,” Veronica said with conviction.

“That’s not true,” Kevin half yelled. “We were all there the night that Ethel fucked up.”

“No,” Veronica stressed. “Betty and Jughead went upstairs and weren’t seen from again.”

Jughead chanced a glance at Veronica and smirked. “What can I say…”

“You can say nothing,” Kevin interrupted.

They pulled into the Pop’s parking lot and saw Betty chatting with an older waitress who was about to take over her shift. Kevin hopped out and slammed the door behind him.

“Stop slamming my doors!” Jughead yelled. “And get me a strawberry!”

“I already have one,” Betty said surprising him as she slid into the front seat. She placed the sweating to-go cup in the holder in the center console and leaned over to kiss him.

Jughead pulled away to yell, “never mind,” at Kevin’s retreating form. Then he turned to Betty. “Hi, beautiful.”

“Ugh, disgusting,” Veronica muttered with a smile.

“You didn’t have to come with me,” Jughead said, stressing each word.

“No, but I wanted to.”

Jughead turned back to Betty. “How was work?”

“Boring,” she sighed, pulling off her skirt and tugging on a pair of biker shorts. Then she tore off her top and pulled a sweatshirt on over her head. And in one swift movement, she removed her bra even though she still had the shirt on.

She was incredible.

“I reiterate my statement of ‘ugh, disgusting,’” Veronica chimed in.

“You aren’t allowed to ride with me anymore,” Jughead said, his eyes never leaving Betty.
