So I’ve compiled a list of bullet points explaining why Bughead is wrong and you shouldn’t ship it.
“Don’t give up. […] You’re so much stronger than all the white noise. You’re stronger than your mother. You’re stronger than your father. You’re keeping this family together, so don’t let go.” - Jughead
“Hey, hey. You belong here, just as much as everyone else. This is your home. You know that, right?” - Betty
“I should have told you about my Dad when I had the chance. […] I was ashamed.” - Jughead
“I should have told you about Chuck. But I lied and instead threw you this party that you didn’t even want.” - Betty
“If there was even an iota of a chance that doing something could hurt you in any way, Betty wouldn’t do it.” - Jughead
“[…] He said no, and I believed him. And I still believe him. I’m not going to insult Jughead or betray him by entertaining this.” - Betty
“It’s just that when people do nice things for me, I short-circuit. Maybe I’m not used to it. Maybe I’m scared of getting hurt, being rejected for being myself.” - Jughead // “There’s this darkness in me that’s overwhelming. […] I think that’s what makes me do all these crazy things…” - Betty
“It’d keep you safe.” - Jughead
“If we’re gonna be together, I wanna know who you are. All of it.” - Betty
“What did I do wrong?” - Betty // “Nothing. We’ll figure it out.” - Jughead
“I don’t wanna become a scapegoat.” - Jughead // “I’m not gonna let that happen.” - Betty
“You did the right thing, telling her the truth.” - Jughead
Betty: *goes out of her way to help Jughead reconnect with his father*
Jughead: *gets slammed into a wall trying to defend Betty and Polly*
Betty: *believes Jughead when literally no one else does*
Jughead: *kisses Betty’s self-harm scars*
Betty: *sees sad Jughead* *proceeds to uncover a clue that solves the murder case*
Jughead: *starts actively embracing life on the South side after seeing Betty get threats just by associating with him* *is willing to be physically separated from Betty if it means ensuring her personal safety*
Betty: *fights to be with Jughead despite the looming threat of a civil war*
Jughead: *attends social events he has no interest in to give Betty moral support*
These two are so bad for each other, am I right? Look how unhealthy this is. So problematic. Who in their right mind would ever even consider shipping these two? Ridiculous concept.
