DISCLAIMER: i have not watched all the episodes of riverdale, i do not plan to, either. i will watch the last two seasons because i am curious. if you're a riverdale based muse, i don't hate you nor your characters and would love to write, nonetheless. i'm sure there's some middle ground we can find!

trigger warnings ... canon like violence, guns, blades, weaponry, gore, blood, injury, etc.

keep in mind - betty cooper knows cults. ( have you seen her family ? they were basically a cult themselves ). STILL. suspicious eyes squint at the tv screen, callused fingertips tap against the edge of the joycons she has in her hand. the blonde shakes her head. she hunts WEREWOLVES for fuck's sake ! a video game going by cult of the lamb really shouldn't irk her like this. "just ... do i have to be the goat?"

[behttys]

i bought my boyfriend a robe and now we both flash the courtyard when we talk to our silly little friends on the internet and dont feel like getting dressed yet

slowly getting back into things, so here's a 1-2 liner starter call from the one & only betty cooper !

"i miss home, i really do." and it's not like betty's lying - lying about the town of riverdale was never a natural when it came to betty cooper. ( it was the only thing she knew to be true ) and she shrugs, handing the brunette a milkshake. "i hope you like chocolate." it was just that the head of hair of the other girl reminded her so much of her best friend and she misses veronica lodge even more than she ever could her hometown, and isn't that something NO ONE ever expected from betty cooper ? "do you miss your home?"

@inspotlight 🌸 starter call

"nini -" sigh escapes her lips, she swipes a slender hand across sweaty forehead, a light ruby smear of BLOOD fading into the tone of her skin. "can you just trust that i know what i'm doing?" nevermind that she's saying these words, probably one or two bad hits away from a breakdown, and it feels like there's something bubbling under your skin betty, doesn't it? the blonde will shake off her thoughts, the energy building just under the surface. she'll take her non-bruised hand, reach out to pat the top of the younger girl's head. "i got you."

𝐓𝐀𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐒  𝐋𝐈𝐊𝐄  𝐂𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐘,   (a prompt list lifted from the novel/book with the same name, by ivy tholen, triggers for gore, violence, blood, injuries and general horror will be present. change pronouns as you see fit)

is this a joke? please tell me this is a joke.

i put the car in reverse and managed to drive away unseen.

i was never going to walk away from this.

please don’t make me do it.

i’ve already given you enough therapy material for the next thirty years.

stop it! you’re going to kill us both!

too bad your phones gone. your fans would die if they could see you now.

it’s like licking copper pipes covered in sand.

i can’t have you bleed to death.

nobody ever becomes a professional musician anyway.

you’ll probably become an accountant or something.

i’m not going to kill you. i’m just going to end your life.

too rough for you?

someone will see this and call the cops. they’re coming for you.

they ain’t gonna catch me.

you confessed to everything and provided enough evidence to convict you.

this is texas. you’re gonna fry.

i don’t have it in me to mutilate you.

you have to die, but you don’t have to slasher movie die.

i wasn’t going to put all of this online.

it’s better to go out with a bang, right?

i can help you. it doesn’t have to end this way.

what is done can be undone. please call me.

you put on a freaky costume and stalked her.

is this a joke? where are you? what did you do?

you’re a real sick piece of shit.

they think it’s fake! should i be offended or flattered?

i’m less and less scared the longer were up here.

oh my god, why are you acting like this is a party?

are you really in a position to mock me?

oh what are you going to do? kill me?

you decided. you decided before we even got here.

you just lied to yourself and said you’d spare me so you’d feel less like a villain.

well, i can’t exactly put all this online. or can i?

who would agree to do that for you?

it was hard to decide to kill you. you don’t deserve it. not like the rest of them.

of course you did. why wouldn’t you?

you butchered them. how are you not drenched in blood?

you put up a fight though, more than i expected.

who wouldn’t want to stare into these bette davis eyes for eternity?

does this mean your idea of heaven is staring at yourself in the mirror?

i don’t care anymore. just tell me what you’re going to do.

you must be in as much pain as i am, right?

how can a person be mopey and anxious at the same time?

so i’m pathetic. you’re pathetic. we’re kindred spirits.

are you finding jesus right here in this carnival or something? 

i’m miserable. i thought it would make me feel better.

when i first decided to do this, i planned to kill you.

i didn’t want to mangle you or make you suffer.

why? we had a deal. why did you kill her?

give us a story and we’ll stick to it.

people never really give each other the benefit of the doubt.

everything is too much, right? you get it?

have you ever felt like the entire world is turning against you?

they’re so cute i could steal them and take them home.

i mean, i can’t say no to ice cream.

it would be better than murdering your friends in cold blood.

right, right. shouldn’t talk shit about the dead. my bad.

you’re such a little fighter, trying to find a weapon. i respect that.

you’d do anything for a friend, wouldn’t you?

we we’re never that close. you’d sell me out in a secound.

we’ll say we never saw the killer without his mask.

technically, you have to be crazy to kill someone in general.

i’ve seen this asshole in action. if he wanted you dead, you would be.

i will be right back and i will have cops with me.

one a scale of one to ten, how screwed are we?

can you enjoy a moment without researching it?

can you enjoy a moment without documenting it for your followers?

why didn’t you save me? i would’ve saved you.

if you’re not going to hurt me, can i leave?

i don’t even know who you are. you’re wearing a mask.

in fact, don’t hide at all. i’m not going to hurt you.

i already played hide and seek with [name], i’m bored with that game.

i can’t die in a room that smells like feet and old coffee.

can we please not refer to anyone in the past tense?

why are you telling me this right now?

you’re not crazy. i’m sorry if i made you feel that way.

i need you to know in case something happens.

we’ll be testifying at this asshole’s trail.

do whatever your little heart tells you.

i can’t touch a dead body.

he’ll find us. he’s had no trouble so far. it’s like he can teleport.

shouldn’t we hide as best as we can and wait?

there’s no happy ending for me. i threw it all away.

i’m pissed off and what you’re witnessing is me doing my best to feel better.

i’m not taking off the fucking mask. i might take yours off though.

it’s hard to hear anything inside this mask.

there’s never a good reason to murder people, you’re crazy.

if you run, i’ll catch you.

don’t run. i’m not moving. you don’t move neither.

i’m smashed up too. won’t be stopping me.

am i a horrible person if i say no?

it’s like you said. we have to save ourselves.

since when did you become a badass?

did we learn our lesson about dropping our weapons in front of murderers?

i’m light headed. i can’t do this much longer.

aren’t you dumbasses supposed to be hiding from me?

do you have a death wish? because i sure don’t.

you can tell me. are you the killer?

you told her to act like a kitty and fall asleep. it’s your fault.

how do you kill someone with a carousel?

we’re putting people in coffins?

when you see blood, you know blood, you feel blood.

if we don’t die, you wanna get married?

we’re going to die, aren’t we?

there’s a psycho in a cloak and mask chasing us around and you want to go into a haunted house?

you sound like the hero in an action movie. no one talks like that.

what if it’s more than one person?

do you have your phone with you?

this isn’t nearly as fun as i imagined it would be.

this night needs to end.

that fucking carousel music. it’s going to be stuck in my head for days.

fair enough. conversation dead and buried.

ugh. i don’t want to talk about this anymore.

if i tried to do that, i’d break my neck.

dude, this isn’t school. you don’t have to raise your hand.

people like to think they can survive a dangerous situation.

look, you don’t have to if you don’t want too.

never mind getting caught, how are we going to get home?

i want to go to college next year, not prison.

we need to get it done so we can explore the creepy abandoned carnival.

if people don’t want to ride with me, i’m not going to hold them hostage.

why are we playing along with this circus?

i’d sooner die than be so close to a body of water.

we’re breaking into a carnival with all our friends.

i’m a bad enough driver as it is.

i know for a fact she almost didn’t get an invite.

i read about it in an article on women’s self-defense.

i wouldn’t call me names if i were you.

you’re not a teeny bit concerned i might try to finish the job later?

i paid attention and learned.

are we all getting the picture now?

i can’t carry you. you’ll have to stay here.

i didn’t want to leave her there. i had no choice.

check yourself and make sure you’re okay.

yeah and the brown stuff is dried blood.

scared your name will be there?

your story was hard to believe.

i don’t want you to be freaked out about something when it probably means nothing.

maybe you’re putting together a pattern that isn’t really there.

i noticed something weird. you can’t call me crazy if i tell you.

what if we’re the only ones left?

it’s not about physical strength. we’re smarter than him.

the clock is running out for some people.

take off your mask.

if you’re going to kill me anyway, you might as well tell me who you are.

maybe i’ll take her and leave her in chunks. maybe i already have.

it’s not about not liking you. i don’t particularly dislike any of you. 

i’m curious, have you wondered why i’m doing this? what’s my motivation?

if i were in your shoes, i’d have so many questions.

turn around and look at me. it’s hard to hear anything inside this mask.

this doesn’t feel like reality. is it? is this really happening?

don’t joke about [name] hurting people. 

let’s not get too upset. emotions breed mistakes.

i don’t want him to go to jail. i want him dead.

if i see him again, i’m going to take your hammer and bash his brains in.

i wish i’d drilled a hole in his head when i had the chance.

it’s like there’s a million spiders running down my neck.

he killed my best friend. if i get my chance, i’m going to make him pay.

i picked it up when we ran.

he’s in here somewhere.

we have to keep running or we have to find a better hiding spot.

we also have to be prepared to fight.

i’m gonna hurl. it smells like lemon, cheese and metal in here.

see. carousel as murder weapon.

i’m serious. this is life or death.

all you have to do is curl up like a kitty and fall asleep.

then he found me. the gross tongue mask from before.

can you come here? i’m so high i’m hallucinating. or i hope i am.

move as fast as you can while we still have light.

did you put your arm around me to guide me into the building or so i could hold you?

my immortal soul just drifted up. just now. it bloomed.

mmm, grilled cheese. i should of gotten another one at dinner.

if i have to fight him, i’m playing for keeps.

it could be anyone. we can let the cops play detective.

i’m less concerned with who he is and more concerned with getting out alive.

you think it’s the same guy?

that has nothing to do with right now.

did you think i wouldn’t see you?

are we going to make it out alive?

we’re going the long way around to the house of horrors.

will you please get off the ground?

there was supposed to be a guard here tonight, wasn’t there?

i’d rather die than eat anything sweet.

i’m not so high that i can’t outrun this guy or even take him down.

you can’t go looking for them alone.

[name] is dead and if we don’t leave this carnival, so are we.

if you want to leave, go.

i’m going to try to find the others.

i have no idea what you’re talking about. we gotta go.

something something no man left behind.

we. can’t. leave. them.

we won’t be able to help the others if we’re dead.

there is someone in a black hooded cloak and demon mask.

it’s a scare actor costume from the carnival.

we have to get outta here.

well, i welcome him to come to me, i’ll kick his fucking ass!

why do i automatically assume people are dead?

what if everyone is dead?

we’re more likely to be arrested than murdered.

one hour and i’ll be done. sixty little minutes and it’s over.

god, i really don’t want to be here.

if i stop, it’s over, i’m dead.

you never know if you’ll get stuck without a bathroom when you need it.

i can’t wrap my head around one person wanting us dead. what could we have done to two?

[behttys]

slowly getting back into things, so here's a 1-2 liner starter call from the one & only betty cooper !

[behttys]

#𝐁𝐄𝐇𝐓𝐓𝐘𝐒.   i'm so tired of being the girl that i am and every good thing has turned into something i dread !  ‣‣‣  𝗪𝗥𝗜𝗧𝗧𝗘𝗡 𝗕𝗬 𝗠𝗢𝗖𝗛𝗜.  ©

[shadowbrn]

cora doesn't know if she trusts betty cooper. the girl is a hunter, and while cora is safe for now? she doesn't know if this alliance is going to last beyond their shared goal. tonight, they're working together to take down a rogue wolf . . . next week, betty could have been using everything she'd learned about cora against her. so cora is keeping the blonde at arms length . . . more so than she does with most people. ❝ pretty sure it is . . . ❞ cora pointed out, ❝ erosion and all that. ❞ but she was sure betty was talking metaphorical. but cora couldn't get into all of that with her. that would make a connection, and cora couldn't build trust like that. not now. she raised an eyebrow at betty as she asked about waiting, ❝ doesn't matter to me . . . any particular reason why? ❞

[behttys]

        SHE'LL TAKE THE PEACE WHERE  she can find it,  and betty finds a lot of it when driving solo cross country  -  but it's different out here.  no car,  no electronics,  no urban landscape.  just the sky,  the ocean,  the sunset,  and the sand.    "maybe the physical stuff,"   betty nods in agreement.  she read once that victorian women were once prescribed trips to the ocean to cure them from hysteria,  actually.  blonde will take a big deep breath in,  slow breath out.   "it's just not the same on the east coast. besides, i live by a river. rivers have nothing on the ocean."   she'd been to new york city a few times,  but it was too loud,  too polluted,  and so not very peaceful.  glances towards the brunette,  curious,  hands now in her pocket.   "you grew up here, right?"  // @shadowbrn.

[dumbthink2]

their smile only brightens now. "betty, i absolutely love you." they make sure to say, before grabbing a fry from the dish. not a typical breakfast, but one that nadine was all too used to by now. when you were moving around a lot, fries were an odd sort of comfort. "so, what'd i miss? anything important?" / @behttys

[behttys]

        AND THOUGH PINK LIPS CURVE  into a grin,  the blonde only speaks a warning:   "careful with throwing words around like those, a girl might think you mean it and catch feelings."   she does like to think herself as a woman under control of her feelings;  but sheesh,  even betty doesn't hear those words enough.   "not much. there was another midnight murder two weeks ago, though. usual stuff. where were you?"  // @dumbthink.
