    Summary

    Jughead Jones knew where he belonged, alone, invisible and half starved beneath the flicker of the twilight drive in’s dying light. He didn’t ask for help. Not from the Northside, not from his father, and definitely not from a Serpent.

    But when Sweet Pea steps in during a run in with the Bulldogs, the lines Jughead’s drawn to survive start to blur. What begins with a fight and the persistence of a charming Serpent turns into something slower, stranger, and far more dangerous.

    Or a Jugpea Season 1 AU about loyalty, loneliness, and the unexpected gravity of being seen
    “Riverdale’s price is blood. If you want to survive, you better be willing to pay it.”
