Summary
Fact #7 About Snakes: When they feel threatened, they periscope. They hide. Usually in tall grass. But then they stand upright and peek out to look for danger. They can do that for hours, if there’s something making them nervous. They tuck themselves away where they can’t be found, and peek out at the world until they feel safe again.
(OR: The crew make a pit-stop at the inn. Ed seems troubled. Archie's there for a 'talk it through' moment. Ed/Stede fluff and developing Ed & Archie being besties, with background crew shenanigans.)

Summary
It’s been almost five years. Almost five years during which Archie has been trying to move on, to recover, to forget, to understand how and why the only woman he has ever loved disappeared.
All of the sudden, here she was, standing on his porch, beautiful as ever, turning his life upside down with just a sentence: " I brought you your daughter Archie Andrews" .
Why did she go? Why did she come back? – it’s the mystery of Riverdale’s Raven bird. -

Summary
3x07 divergence, Hiram meets them in the Athens barn before Jughead and Archie can escape.
If he was writing this out like a story Jughead would say he knows a lot of things about Archie intellectually these days. He's always in the theory of him lately. And maybe he's drawn away from the real and concrete facts since the summer before tenth grade or the weeks right after, or maybe it’s been even longer than that.The reality of it is that he’s understanding now he doesn’t know a thing about what’s really there between Archie and Hiram Lodge.
(OR: rape scene. dark. Title from Gabe Habash's novel Stephen Florida.)

Summary
He knows how to find metaphors now, had spent hours bent over Jughead’s novel, wondering what this or that sentence really meant, like if he managed to decode it, he would have the key to Jughead himself, would know him inside out again, like he did when they were kids and it was like there was nothing separating them, not even flesh or skin, like they were the same soul that got put in two different bodies. It made him feel better, like Jughead was looking over him with a self-satisfied smile, content to see Archie trying so hard, knowing that the mystery was a good one.
This isn’t about Jughead, though. He thinks. To be fair, most things had been about Jughead, so far.Archie and thinking

Summary
Archie's been doing a lot of watching lately.
It's like he's been a backseat driver in his own life, hoping between whatever's easiest at any given moment. For a while, it was picking up right where he left off with Veronica, attempting to ignore the shining ring on her finger as she kissed him and choking down the bile in his throat. After that it was trying to start anew with Betty, but her lips were too soft, too gentle, too pliant, and it felt like they were both chasing something they wouldn't find in each other.
Now, it's sitting here with Jughead during the earliest hours of the day, dancing around sensitive topics and half-said "I miss you"s. Archie doesn't even have to kiss him to feel sick.

Summary
Being back in Riverdale is a lot like riding a bike. A very old, rusted bike he finds tipped over in the backyard and wheels on deflated tires into the garage where it’ll do nothing but idle and collect dust. One he keeps all the same, because its shade of orange is the same as the old car his mom took with her to Chicago and it’s too eroded to donate to any of the kids at the center.

Summary
“Listen,” Jughead finally says, “you don’t owe anyone anything. Okay?” He says it in a way that makes Archie think he’s not just talking about Veronica anymore. “Just because someone’s interested in you, doesn’t mean you have to be with them. You’re allowed to choose.”
“Veronica’s nothing like Grundy,” Archie says quietly. “It’s nothing like that.”
“I know,” Jughead says, “but there’s a pattern here. Don’t pretend you don’t see it.”
Suddenly acutely aware of how intense the conversation has become, Archie clears his throat. “Anyway,” he says, “enough about me. How’s your novel coming along? How’s Betty?”
