FICS I’VE READ THIS WEEK (29)
Hello everyone. Dudes. I am the epitome of Hannah Gadsby this week. I’m sure you are too. We all deserve a big ice cream sundae after all this. 🍨
Tumblr media
So, as you all know, I am Canadian - but like my southern neighbours, I have spent most of the week refreshing the CNN interactive map, the CTV interactive map, the 270towin interactive map, my twitter feed (that is thankfully fandom free except for Michael at @BamSmackPow), and then back again. Like most of us, I was hoping for a wave - and now knowing that 45 was not an aberration but was instead a mirror… well that’s just sad. And I know it’s a Canadian thing to do - but I’m so sorry, guys. Let’s continue to pray for the end to this madness. 💙
Additionally - it’s been a busy work week for me - two payrolls and two visits into the office with all sorts of meetings set up for those two days while I’m not remote. My daughter had to self-isolate earlier in the week because someone in her class was positive for Covid-19 - she was able to get a test on Tuesday and by yesterday morning I got the text that she was negative - but it was a scary couple days for us. But thankfully all Salmons are healthy at the moment.🐟
As for my new obsession (that remains @feelavalanche​‘s fault) - after over fifteen years of being a Wikipedia editor, I’ve finally created my first Wikipedia article (it was for Vilhelm Blomgren) that is now in Draft status waiting to be approved by the powers that be. That was exciting. I’ve watched Midsommar three times this week (it’s a good movie to put on in the background when you’re doing payroll reports - aside from the naked ritual sex scene at the end. Is it weird I ffwd through that scene? I dunno.) - and last night I downloaded all the episodes of HBO Nordic’s Gösta (which, in the first five minutes, I actually saw Ville’s penis and I was like this 😲🤯😵‍- because it’s hard to wrap my head around European attitudes about unexpected nudity… I didn’t think I was a prude but now I’ve seen this hot man’s junk and I’m as embarrassed as my mom was when Elvis shook his hips when she was thirteen years old. I’m such a Puritan… but also - GET IT LINDA! *cough* 🤦‍♀️). I’ve probably learned more about the man than is really healthy for a rational fangirl but his daughter Edda is super adorable and he and his fiancé (the Linda I mentioned above) are having another baby in January! I love them. So pleased. Need to learn Swedish. Seriously. I have to google translate most of his Instagram stories… I’m a mess. lol.
ANYWAY I’m rambling. Sorry. Of course there were fics read this week. Not a lot of fics - but there were fics. I had to read things to take my mind off the craziness but I admit that I was not easily distracted by good fic - I’ve been doomscrolling for most of the week. Hopefully next week will be better for all of us.
Stay healthy and stay safe. 😘
Here is my reading list for the week of Oct 30 to Nov 05
Keep reading

‘’[Our] chemistry was so great that, I think the idea came from the fans. There wasn’t a conversation during Episode 7, literally, even when Oscar does the [lip] bite, I think what you’re seeing there is the love between me and Oscar in real life which is our intense bromance. But, obviously, in a franchise, people are kinda like ‘’Oooh, actually that’s a possibility’’, then we start thinking ‘’Oooh, that could be a possibility’’, but then obviously it wasn’t going in that direction […] So, the fans that maybe wanted Finnpoe can believe that with whatever happened in the trilogy, maybe something can happen in the future.’’

Question: does being drunk make it easier or harder for y’all to write smut?

Not watching Riverdale anymore but trying to figure out what’s going on through gifs and text posts is wild.
Jughead is dead but not dead and somehow soup is involved?

Classic Bughead - Fic Recs
Tumblr media
In honor of Bughead’s Third Anniversary, I figured it’d be the perfect opportunity to revisit some of my favourite fics from the early days of this fandom. They are as much a part of my love for this ship as what we’ve seen performed on screen. Check them out, if you haven’t already. Or share your own oldie but goldie stories :) 
Here goes:
Tacos and Tequila by @jugandbettsdetectiveagency​
I have vivid memories of waiting for updates to this fic. It was like Christmas morning. 
A Mustard Stain on His Heart by pestilent_orange
The night before Betty leaves for her summer internship, a week before Archie bails on Jughead on that fateful July 4th weekend, Jughead and Betty share a moment. This fic sparked my love of pre-canon.
Not Quite Shakespeare by Taeyn
A fantastic ‘first kiss’ fic. 
Tales from Pop Tate’s by browneyedsparker aka @nothollywheeler
Pop Tate is a shipper at heart.
I thought you wanted to talk by @gellsbellshead​
In the early days of the fandom, gells always kept this fandom stocked full of amazing fluff.  I adore her for it. 
blush by @lusterrdust​
Ever wonder what fics were like before their first kiss? This is an excellent example.  LD wrote *quite* a few. Check them out on her ao3 page. 
milkshakes & chastity belts by darlingdearestdead
Betty seeks Jughead out at Pop’s, and discovers he’s the only person she really feels like hanging out with anymore. (Set just after 1.05. Exploring the growing tension and changes between them)
so talk by zombiekittez Archie talks to Jughead about Betty and this new development between them.
 hoping for dandelions by hearticonography aka @hearticonography​
I still come back to this fic every now and again. It’s like a slice of homemade apple pie, it’s SO GOOD. 
Gun Song by Shippershape
One of the original greats. I still come back to it. If you read it, you’ll know why. 
the stacks by malmo722 aka @bughead-fic-request​
one of the most popular fics in our fandom back in the day and for good reason. waiting for updates was murder!!!! 
intermissions by yavannie
quintessential bughead reading with an asexuality spectrum jughead and characters so real you can’t convince me they ain’t people. this is how yav and i bonded. 
the entirety of the break free and run series by @sylwrites
this is just mandatory bughead fandom reading, y’all. One of this fandom’s first college au’s and so. much. soft bughead, featuring syl’s signature prose. 
my youth ain’t tangled up in bad decisions by @rivervixens​
you know why this is here. you’ve read it.  Or at least heard about it (I know you did) 
bizarre love triangle by @ficmuse​
another bughead fandom must!  When Jughead stumbles upon the yearbook from the Class of 1991, secrets are revealed that will forever alter how the teens of Riverdale view their parents.
looking for a mind at work by @imreallyloveleee​
This was the fic that made me fall in love with loveleee and I still adore everything she says and does and writes. 
for the life of me by @stillscape​
i’m sorry, i just can’t make a fic rec list without plugging this fic because it is my favourite and I’m strongly biased and I re-read it like twice a year at least. 
I could really go on and on.. and I probably will. I need to bring back my fic rec lists because there’s so many fics that I’m forgetting and need to come back to… 
Still… can you believe we now have over 5220 stories featuring the bughead pairing on ao3? It’s MIND BLOWING. 
Thank you to everyone who has spent a portion of their lives reading and writing and creating content for your fellow fans. It’s been an amazing ride.
