5 times Ace eavesdrops to know what's going on with Nancy, and one time when he just asks

He used to try to listen in on his parents, but once the captain lost his hearing, it lost a lot of the quiet thrill. Before, it was useful to know what his father was upset about, to try to manage or avoid the barbs of his frustration. It’s probably why he liked learning coding and hacking so much; he could pry those secrets out without detection.
Ace still eavesdrops at work, where he hovers in the periphery as the dishwasher. The kitchen is loud, but from the sink he can hear through to both the break room and the dining room as long as you know where to stand.
Now he uses it to know when George is pissed about a wrong delivery, or when Bess is talking to herself under her breath—it’s helpful to know when your platanchor's qi isn’t aligned.

heartunsettledsoul’s holiday bughead fic roundup

write more of a little more [6/6, 20k; part one of the don’t fear doing things wrong series]

After all, it’s not her fault that their respective best friends took to each other like moths to a flame and ditched them to go flirt in the great outdoors. In all likelihood Betty’s vacation is just as ruined as Jughead’s, so they may as well commiserate together. or, a double prompt fill for my own personal festive fic fest 2018: you’re my hot ski instructor and i’m failing the bunny hill & our friends rent a cabin to go skiing and we’re the only ones who stay inside

hold me even closer now [5/5, 26k; part two of the don’t fear doing things wrong series]

“Okay, well, if Veronica isn’t the one sending flight confirmation details for a prepaid flight to Burlington because she decided to come home after all, who is?”
“Sending what?” Betty wedges between Jug and the arm of the loveseat, looking where he points on his laptop screen.
Sure enough, Forsythe Pendleton Jones III, is booked for a flight to Burlington on December 23. Two days from now.
Betty lunges for her own computer on the coffee table, so frantic to get into her email account that she mistypes her password three times.
Top of her inbox: Elizabeth Anne Cooper, booked for a flight to Burlington on December 23.
Just below the confirmation from the airline is an email from Cooper-comma-Alice.
or, Betty and Jughead visit the Coopers for Christmas. With some unexpected, tropey twists.

(pssssst. there might be a part three to don’t fear doing things wrong coming to ur ao3 inbox/tag this holiday season.)

It made for a ridiculous image: Veronica dressed in heels and a chiffon dress, but wearing a Santa hat and covered in flour; Archie wielding a ball of dough and as many decorations as could fit in his arms; and then Betty, placing felt antlers on her head as though it were her battle armor and yanking a protesting Jughead up by the elbow.
Betty’s in for a happy surprise when she shows up for Christmas with Veronica and Archie and their front door is opened by none other than Jughead Jones.
She nods. Betty Cooper nods, agreeing to pretend-date him. An extremely normal favor between friends.
Nerves shudder their way through him.
In kind, Betty shivers, and it becomes clear they need to return inside.
“Ready to enter the belly of the beast?” Jughead jokes.
Her only response is to roll her eyes at him, which gives him a semblance of hope that they might retain normalcy in their friendship after this fiasco is over. Or rather, to use Betty’s own words, their relationship.
or a miscommunication, a blizzard, and only one bed.

if the fates allow [8 individual mini prompts fills, about 1k each or under]

a collection of holiday prompt fills from 2018 (god)

turn the white snow [5/5, 12k words]

Betty borrows the Lodge’s winter cabin to hide away and get her work done. When a storm hits, she’s stranded in the snow with her neighbor, Jughead Jones. As you can imagine, things heat up.

(listen this one is old af and even i judge my writing but. it is technically festive, so.)

loveleee’s cozy winter bughead fics

all of the lights The flush on Betty’s cheeks tells him she’s a little bit drunk – which only partially explains why she’s lying on her back underneath Archie’s Christmas tree in the middle of a party. (rated g)

breaking the ice The first thing Betty thinks, when she sees him hovering by the hostess stand with his yellow umbrella in hand, is that she can’t believe he actually came all the way down here. The second is that he’s even cuter in person than he was in the photo on Archie’s phone. (rated t)

give a little, get a little “You’re like a furnace,” she says, and without really thinking about it, curls up against Jughead’s side. (rated m)

handle with care They’re both here now, and that’s what matters; not the fact that he’d just wanted to see her one more time before they close down the office for the holidays. (rated m)

i just got the taste for it Jughead’s entire body freezes. It’s his face staring back at him in millions of pixels – his face stretched at least thirty feet high across the scoreboard – his face framed beside Betty’s inside of an enormous pink heart. (rated g)

kaleidoscopes Jughead wakes on New Year’s Day with a beam of sunshine in his eyes, light streaming through the Andrews’ living room windows. (rated g)

Love, Betty…and Jughead “Christmas cards.” Betty slips one into a green envelope, and her tongue darts out to lick the adhesive edge. Jughead feels his pulse speed up, and takes it as his cue to move past her into the kitchen. (rated g)

ours are the moments i play in the dark Her fingers had curled around the little box as a heavy knot formed in the pit of her stomach. And then she’d just…left. And ended up here. On her ex-boyfriend’s couch. On Christmas morning. (rated m)

Paraphrasing “Oh, shit. Look.” Jughead points to the windows behind the checkout desk, which offer a much clearer view of the outside – or would, anyway, if said view wasn’t obstructed by the heaviest snowfall Betty’s ever seen in her life. (rated t)

…and probably more to come! i love winter fic! you can also find my big list of winter bughead fic recs right here.

Betty finds him at his locker on Friday morning, and tries to act casual about it. “I was thinking, maybe we should go to Pop’s first?” She leans against the locker beside his, tilting her head up at him the way Veronica does when she wants to convince Archie to do something.

Jughead looks surprised, like the idea of eating dinner before a movie has never occurred to him before. “Me and…no, yeah. Sure. That seems fine.”

It’s not a particularly enthusiastic yes, but she’ll take it.

(Betty and Jughead definitely do not go on a date for his 17th birthday.)

exhale chapter 18

Betty has a bad mental health week, but Jughead and Cheryl are both there for her. Plus: Betty and Jughead finally have that rooftop date at Felipe’s.

Fifteen minutes later, when Jughead saw Betty coming, he signaled to Colin and ran out to the front door to greet her. She appeared...well, distressed was the word that came to mind. Her hair looked like it had just been brushed, her outfit hastily thrown on. He wondered absently if she’d just gotten dressed for the first time all day.
Wordlessly, Jughead embraced her, letting Betty melt into his warmth.
“You okay?” he whispered into her hair and she shrugged.
“A little better now,” she mumbled, ghosting a kiss across his neck and he nodded, kissing her forehead and whispering “I love you” once more into her ear before finally pulling back.

The Mysterious Disappearance of the Girl No One Knew

Smithers pulls up to the curb outside Betty and Veronica’s building at six o’clock on the dot the following evening, having readily agreed to chauffeur them up to Riverdale for the vigil. As the car rolls to a stop, Jughead steps back, shaking his head.

“Oh no. You didn’t tell me we were taking the limo there.”

“The town car is being serviced,” Veronica informs him breezily. “Get in. We’re blocking traffic.”

(hold on to me) ‘cause I’m a little unsteady

Riverdalenerdlol

Because fuck canon, that’s why.

My better take on 5x18 cause I’m not a dumbass Riverdale writer; OR: Jughead actually supports Betty

The table asks how she is, then Jughead asks how Alice is.
It’s so like him, she thinks, for him to ask about her mom - to care about the other people in her life. After everything, he knows how her mom can be more than most sitting at the table. Nostalgia floods her system for a moment, and it almost brings her to tears thinking about the life she used to have.
The truth is that Alice is not good. Not at all. She tells Jughead that, and she adds that her mom is listening to a musical record on repeat - a musical that eerily depicts her familial situation down to a tee.
As she opens up, Betty begins to feel like the alcohol content in her glass isn’t strong enough.

Winter’s Fluff Bughead Fics and Drabbles

Cause we need a list like this today…

Pure Fluff Fics

happenstance: Bughead AU - Jughead grew up in Riverdale, experienced some of its trauma, but moved away after high school. Betty was never a part of Riverdale. They never met. Until now...

the end credits we deserve: Bughead Future AU - Both Jug and Betty try and solve their latest mystery: what scares their daughter during family movie night.

Pure Fluff Drabbles

bliss: Set sometime in the future after Betty and Jughead have moved away from Riverdale. It's Jughead's birthday again.

sprinkles of life: Future Bughead wedding planning

Fics with a mix of Fluff and Light Angst

sing that lullaby once more: A series of moments: Jughead has some words to say while Betty sleeps.

I only love you more when it snows: Moments throughout the years of Jughead gifting Betty a present during the holidays.

The stars said once again my dear: Little moments where Betty and Jughead dance.
