the blood around her wound was drying — making her task easier, and all the more painful. with a wince, priyanka pressed the alcohol soaked swab into the cut just a little deeper; hissing as a result. ( for all she liked to pretend, she wasn’t invincible. she wasn’t able to see everything coming her way. best evidenced by the cut through her brow she now sported — a lucky fucking shot. she repaid the bitch in kind. )

“motherfucker.” priyanka cursed, eyes screwing shut. blindly, she reached for the clean swabs — wetting them, attempting to clear away some of the dried blood. ideally, she wouldn’t be doing this in the bathroom at pop’s, but. anywhere in ghoulie territory invited questions she didn’t want to answer. “last time i ever bother with anyone, i swear.”

Josie stared at the keys for a while once she had finished playing. She was satisfied, what she’d come up with was great. Although, she did wish that she had a different muse. Her song was about new beginnings and starting over, and she wanted to draw from real and raw emotions when she was creating this song. She just wished she didn’t need to use the pussycats to do it. Memories of their time together began to swim through her mind but she did her best to push those thoughts away. That was the past, she would try to tell herself. Josie almost thought she was dreaming when she a familiar soothing voice that she’d never admit she missed so much. She froze for a quick moment before speaking up. “Valerie.” She turned around to face her former band mate. “How long have you been standing there?”

     it’s not often that she hears the melody of music that’s actually good travel through the hallways of riverdale high  .  she’s looking for her daily nook  ,  an empty room that she can hide away to write in peace when the music reaches her  ,  and out of bare curiosity she follows it  .  it’s only when she reaches the door and peers in does her heart hit the bottom of her chest cavity  .  of course it’s JOSIE  .  it’s bizarre after so long of not speaking that she still feels the same reaction  ,  but valerie squares that down to the uncertainty of the whole thing  .  it had never been properly discussed  ,  just emotionally argued over  .  in the end it seemed inevitable that they stayed apart  ,  but she finds her hand opening the door ever so slightly to take in the noise a little clearer  ,  listening to its entirety before clearing her throat  ,  ❝ that was really good  .  ❞

       girl glances at her interior  ;   real leather  AND  italian made  ,   a little water won’t do much  .   after all  ,   these cars are made to  ‘  wash the blood off a lot faster  ,   and easier  ’   as her older brother would say  .     “  and i’ll  happily  help keep you unsmited  .   and no worries  ,   this car has  LITERALLY  seen a lot worse for wear  .  ”    an easy grin on her glossed lips  .    she takes the left  ,   a soft indie song playing in the background as she turns up the heat to help dry the other off faster  .      “  nice to meetcha valerie  !   i’m pearl  .   new to town  ;   and i should make a disclaimer  .   i’ve got a twin sister called ruby and  yes  ,    we’re basically identical  .  ”  

           girl gnaws at her bottom lip  ,    rocking on her feet with a shrug  .      “  it’s nothing !   probably  .   as long as i stay a good distance  ,   anyways  .    trust me  ,   this is the usual for me  .   ”    somehow  ,   between her classes and hanging out with her friends  -  apparently  ,   she breaks up relationships too  .   not on purpose !   it just  …   happens  .      “  some cursed dungeons and dragons  ,   probably  .   i guess the 80′s really is making a comeback  ,   huh ?  ”  

the fact that she now felt almost UNSAFE in pop’s made tiny feel anxious, a feeling she wasn’t familiar with. she felt like her chest was tight, almost like she was going to cry – NO, she would never cry in front of a stranger. tiny took in a deep breath, shaking her head and leaning forward. she rested her chin in her hand, picking at her jeans.

          “ nah, i’m just gonna wait until they leave.. i just hope they don’t touch my stuff, i’ve been working for days on that project. ”

she looked over at the stranger, offering a half-hearted smile.

          “ welp, while i’m here; name’s tiny. you? ”

“Well the only time I’m even somewhat happy is with Kevin. The way that he makes me laugh is unreal.” Moose knew he was sounding soft so he shook the feelings off. “My dad is a dick. The second he finds out I’m into dudes he’ll kick my ass.” 

    veronica hadn’t seen the fellow pussy cat, well the former pussy cat around since she hadn’t been around josie in awhile, which was weird. now that she is able to see val, it was nice and hopefully they would be able to catch up. of course, veronica wasn’t going to just bombard val by sitting in her booth once she got her order, she would give the other space if she needed it and didn’t want to be a bother to her. flipping her notepad to a new clean page, she nodded her head and smiled, “well all friends of veronica lodge get the pleasure of being served by yours truly.” she assured the other and gave her a genuine smile toward her. “orange shake you got it, anything else, val pal?”

          she wasn’t wrong in considering sweet pea  &  fangs  children .  it was like owning two dogs that could talk .  loyal ,  loud ,  &  big balls of energy .  accurate ,  really .  there’s a pursed smile at the comment though .   ‘ i’ll be sure to pass along the message . ’   as in she will probably go rip into them herself because alerting weatherbee could completely sabotage jugheads plans .  brows raise at the question ,  arms nonchalantly crossing over her chest .   ‘ god knows what’s happening to that poor ,  beautiful  boy in that hell hole .  –  perhaps  you  could be a good friend  &  go see him if you want answers ?  because as shocking as this news may be ,  i can’t help you there . ’

@valericb | liked for a starter

it had been awhile since veronica really talked with val. the two weren’t exactly close, but they both had the same interest, music. veronica had been working at pops for a few hours and heard a few dings coming through the door, and took a few more orders of the customers that came and went. while standing behind the counter and checking someone out, she hears another ding, the sound of more customers coming in. looking up, her lips curve into a smile seeing a familiar face, “val hey.” she greets before offering her a seat at the counter, “what can i get you?” she asks and smiles at the other. 

“Great? Not exactly the word I’d use for it, but I guess it fits.” Moose offered her a half smile, trying his best not to look a complete mess. “You’re bisexual, too? Yeah, my dad would actually kill me. I want to care less because when I’m with Kevin I’m someone else entirely. He makes me feel calm and like I could be  a better person.”

“Well I hope it’s a thing. And if it isn’t, then I’m glad you could at least be kind to me. Board game? Is this the 1980′s?”

‘‘ i think it’d make any guys day to get shiv’d by someone as HOT AS YOU.’‘ jorge shoots back in a slightly amused tone, lips curling up ever so slightly as he looks her over.  for a moment or two he’s silent again when he hears her  words. boy this was going to be fun. he opens his mouth again and he actually can’t find the words to respond with, so he immediately lowers his head and brings a hand up to cover his face to hide the fact that he was actually embarrassed.

tiny would die before she admitted she had a soft underbelly, she was never one to back down from a fight. but in all truth, tiny was only cocky about fighting when she had other people to back her up, in this case she was alone. there weren’t any other serpents at pop’s tonight, which wasn’t all too rare. really, tiny should be at the whyte wyrm with the other serpents. it was the one place she truly fit in.

          “ and start a turf war between the north and south side? that’s exactly what they want. usually i don’t back down from a fight but shit, pop’s should be NEUTRAL TERRITORY. “

an eyebrow merely raises, and he shakes his head trying his hardest to supress a chuckle. he opens his mouth for a moment, wanting to say something witty in response to her but shakes his head, lowering it as well to hide the smile that is coming across his features. ‘’– i’m EIGHTEEN. my first instinct isn’t always to shiv.’’
