This happened minutes before Pietro ends up lost in another dimension or something…

but

Chicles having to go to their elementary school twice a week because the twins might have pushed a classmate out of a window but no one actually saw and the other kid only has a broken leg anyway, so no harm done, right?

Chicles cooking family dinner.

Chicles baking two birthday cakes because the twins deserve the best.

Chicles celebrating the twins first suspension of the school year with burgers at Pop's.

Chicles throwing a birthday bash with the twins' school friends in the murder den.

Chicles finally giving the twins bedrooms. One each. And taking the master bedroom to themselves.

Chicles having an insane kitchen knife collection.

Chicles having stepford smile family portraits everywhere.

Chicles being really invested in the PTA.

Charles taking over as the sheriff and only policeman of Riverdale. 💖

@ringedplanetsaturn my homie thank you for the horrendous suggestion

oooo this is really interesting and something i haven’t considered very much. i could see the arguments for both sides (very little contact & very much) but i really don’t know.

this isn’t your question but relating to this, i do wonder what charles thought about the whole chic being the gargoyle king thing. maybe they talk about this in universe i dont remember, but was he all for it? or did he think it was a weird sacrifice of chic’s personhood (although chic’s personhood is always sacrificed, first with the coopers and then with penelope). maybe he was into it lmao
