Text: I promise I’ll keep in touch. I might even come back when it’s done. You’ll be okay?
Text: I mean, I'm going to be worried, but yeah, I'll be fine.
Text: I’m sure you’ll find plenty of willing participants to get your mind off of that worry. I’ll come see you before I leave for a hug.
Text: I know, Vi. It’s not ideal. But I’m the face and name he knows. I know how he thinks. If he finds out Im not on this, he’ll think that I think he’s not a threat anymore and he’ll decide to show me that he is. And no matter what I do, he’s bad shit to others, fucking up a lot of lives. I should help if I can, right?
Text: I suppose, yes, Miss.

Text: It’s just a gut feeling. My team can probably catch him without me, but it’s more of a sure thing if I’m there and it’ll be faster.
Text: That sounds really dangerous, Betty. I'm not sure that's a really good idea.

Text: Someone from my past has become active again, and I want to go catch them before they come to me and hurt others. But I’m only going if you’re good here. If you still need or want me here, I want to be here.
Text: Wait, what!? Miss...what does that mean? What do you mean hurt?

Text: Hey Vi, can we chat for a minute? (Betty)
Text: sure, miss. What do you need?
@highpony-betty
Text: I just need to annoy you for a second. You’re still good here, right? With Sam and Owen?
Text: so silly. Yes, I’m great, Miss. Couldn’t ask for better. Why?

I don’t agree with that being a word that fits her. Like I said, she does let people in. You must have done something that tore up your parent card.
And I didn't ask for your opinion.
That’s a yes. Okay then.
Well there has to be a reason for that.
There is. She's being a brat.
I don’t agree with that being a word that fits her. Like I said, she does let people in. You must have done something that tore up your parent card.
You couldn’t just go to her room and talk to her, Miss?
She won't open the door. I've been trying, but she won't let me in. She never really has.
Well there has to be a reason for that.
Why would she have to reach out or call?
She wouldn't answer mine. There's no other option after that.
You couldn’t just go to her room and talk to her, Miss?
I don’t know much about all that. I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt, I suppose. Maybe she liked in when she was young. I have noticed though that while she has a tough exterior, she lets in people who deserve it. Maybe she’s mad at you for something.
Oh I know why she thinks she's mad, but she's so quick to point the finger. She never reached out to me, she never called me. But yet I'm the bad guy.
Why would she have to reach out or call?
That’s probably true, Miss. But I feel like you probably know that she doesn’t go by that name. No one here knew it, except Jughead and possibly Delilah, and now you’ve put it publicly online. Do you honestly think she should be okay with that? She is an adult, after all.
And how was I to know no one knew what JB stands for? It's not like she ever tells me anything. Everyone is so quick to take her side, but ignore the fact that she has shut me out of her life for the better part of a couple decades! She's an adult, but she was my child first.

Well I apologize for that, Miss, I didn’t know your mark. And I can’t say that I know Miss JB as well as a mother, but I do know that pissing her off and betraying her trust is probably not the way to get her to be your best friend.
If you're not a dominant, it's always better to assume. In what way did I betray her? I said her name, for christ's sake.

Betty Cooper. And trying to figure out if I’m impressed by your um..hmm. Im not sure of an appropriate word for it. Mania? Death wish?
Well, Betty Cooper, if you're not a dominant you'd better start using titles from here on out and be warned - i'm in a mood. I have neither of those things, i am being ignored and I won't have it.

Woah, dead woman walking.
And you are?

Oh enough is enough!
JELLYBEAN FORSYTHIA JONES! You respond to your mother this instant!
Woah, dead woman walking.
“I love that he’s been sending pictures. He really seems to adore her, which I’m incredibly thankful for.” When she’d heard that Violet hadn’t found a claim, a week or so before her birthday, she’d completely deflated. She immediately gave up hope for her sister to have a good life. “I never felt so powerless, ehich was new for me. I came to try to make sure I’d at least know who bought her. I’m glad she’s good enough that the school bought her. It gave me time with her, and it bought time for Sam to arrange things. And now everything is great. I’m still kind of working on trusting in that.”
"He has been. I suspect Owen has been the one taking the pictures, but yes he absolutely does adore her." She smiled at the girl, seeing the striking likeness to Violet now that she was smiling. Mary nodded. "Just between you and me, I've been living with the fear that Sky wouldn't find someone in time. I can't imagine the fear and worry you faced. Power was forcibly taken away from you. It was brave of you to do what you could to take it some of it back for the both of you." Something every parent and family member feared was losing a loved one to slavery. More often than not once someone went into the slave system they were lost for good. "I'm so glad that Sam was able to get her out of here. Don't get me wrong, I'm not attacking the school, but Sam and Owen treasure her. Now that being said, they're making sure you sisters have time together right?"
“That makes sense. I can certainly see Owen as someone who would take pictures of his girl.” She could understand why this mother had worried about Sky. He was very sweet, but also gullible and needed a gentle touch. A happy ending for him wasn’t guaranteed. “The powerlessness was something I’d never experienced on that level before. I’m with the FBI, and even my shiny, powerful badge couldn’t help Violet. So Im just grateful beyond grateful that Sam bought her. She was fine with the school, at least that’s what she told me. But not she gets a lifetime of actually being happy.” She hadn’t said most of this aloud before, so hearing her own words made her smile. “Oh, yes, they’re very considerate in that regard. Vi and I can see each other pretty much whenever we want to as long as she doesn’t have other plans. And I can always go see her perform at the Evans House.”
