people are out here complaining about betty and jughead fucking in the bunker and i’m like….. let them move in there. keep them away from those god-awful parents of theirs. their stress would go down, and their happiness would go up almost immediately. dilton had an abusive dad. he’d support them, i’m sure
“i don’t know man,” she says as she sees so many posts about bughead vs varchie scenes and the difference in their relationships, “it is what it is and i like that they make it clear that betty and jughead were best friends before they were more and like, they’re in love and still manage to have fun together like they did before they got together with the addition of sex instead of sex feeling like that’s what keeping them together. but that’s me and like, you do you because we’re all here for different things.”
they wish, tbh. betty and jughead were well on their way into falling in love when fp and alice had their first interaction. bughead was written first, which makes them the original bughead. not to mention betty and jughead’s similarities to their parents are superficial. they’re completely different people. and alice desperately wanted out of the serpents??? doesn’t sound like a powerful king and queen duo to me
that’s not really the issue for me. i’ve said before: it doesn’t make sense to sacrifice bughead for f*lice
my biggest problem is that it’s a shitty thing to do to your children. it puts betty and jughead in an awkward and weird situation. there’s no way other characters wont make jokes about their parents dating and if it’s incest, which undoubtedly will be uncomfortable for them, even if they know they aren’t doing anything wrong… which, that right there rubs me the wrong way, too. betty and jughead feeling like they’re the ones doing something taboo when they started dating first and then their parents got together. you can’t drag in the f*lice dated in high school argument here because a) it was 20+ years ago/they went on to marry other people and b) betty and jughead had no idea their parents had history
betty and jughead didn’t knowingly put their parents in a weird position when they got together, but, even if they had, they’re the kids. kids are supposed to be the more selfish ones in the child-parent dynamic. in bughead’s case, they definitely aren’t. fp and alice have repeatedly made their kids lives harder and treated them poorly. it makes them dating/fucking/whatever while betty and jughead are dating an in character move, but all the more worse, in my opinion. it makes you wonder if they care about their children’s feelings or quality of life at all. i don’t think we’ve seen much evidence that they do
The thing is Cole M. Sprouse is sinfully attractive even with his shirt on! How is that even possible?
So I’m like “You go and get your man with abs. I’ll stay here and admire Cole’s luscious head of hair, his beautiful eyes, his perfectly sculpted nose, his sweet boyish smile (have you seen his lips), his goddamn gorgeous face (that’s supposed to be illegal), his constellation of moles, his broad shoulders, his toned arms, his hands – his fucking hands. I haven’t even began describing his v and happy trail yet. And have I said it? He’s also incredibly kind, charming, talented, humorous, and shit, he’s intelligent too.”
Jughead Jones eats a lot of hamburgers and likes to watch murder mysteries and write his novel on his laptop and drink coffee and be there for his best friends and fall asleep with his girlfriend in his arms and dearly loves his little sister and never gives up on anyone but he also runs a gang and looks really hot in leather jackets and gets his rocks off to his girlfriend in full lingerie pinning him to the bed while telling him he needs to be punished AND SO BASICALLY I didn’t know where I was going with this but it’s all true!
i saw a post today with an article that described fp as “the most loveable parent in riverdale”, which – i am sorry, no. skeet ulrich plays probably one of the hottest parents in riverdale, but that is not the same thing. fp as a character is an openly terrible father who spends the show’s run alternating between being so abrasive and uncontrollable that his son prefers to be actively homeless instead, helping to dump a teenager’s body, and feigning interest in his son’s life so he can scope out how much the kid knows about that illegal activity, not to mention physically and verbally abusing his son, then condoning and later encouraging his son’s recruitment into the criminal gang that he runs.
