essentially how this scene went. xD Betty and Jughead basically shutting down Archie wanting to join their adventures was hilarious lol… poor Arch. Sorry Arch. still love you Arch. xD
So, I rewatched the kiss (*swoons*). And just —
- You can see Jughead telling himself to go for it. And it’s adorable.
- BETTY LOOKS AT HIS LIPS WHEN SHE ASKS HIM WHAT.
- SHE LOOKS AT HIS FUCKING LIPS.
- SHE ALSO PLACES HER HAND ON HIS NECK,. DURING THE KISS.
- Betty fucking SMILES.
- Jughead stops kissing her for a minute.
- And she SMILES
- And it was an “i like this” smile
- And then Jughead sighs in relief.
- Like, “finally” sigh
- Which means
- HE’S BEEN WANTING TO DO THIS FOR AWHILE
Jughead: is only sincere towards Betty while being sarcastic to everyone else
Jughead: opens more of his personality around Betty
Jughead: stopped being a complete loner and actually started hanging out with other people because of Betty
Jughead: takes Betty’s suggestions over everyone else’s
Jughead: does everything Betty asks
Jughead: gets jealous when Betty mentions a date
Jughead and Betty: have a super secret convo only between themselves not caring that their people are actually totally right there at the table with them
Jughead: has breakfast with Betty’s crazy mom
Jughead: sneaks into Betty’s room by climbing a ladder up to her window and calling her Juliet and then calming her down
Betty and jughead: have more screen time in the past two episode together than anyone else from the rest of the cast have had
Antis: lol bughead came from nowhere wtf he doesn’t even like her
Things I noticed during the kissing scene
*JUGHEAD WHERE DID YOU GET THAT LADDER AND HOW LONG DID YOU WAIT FOR THE MONSTER ALICE TO LEAVE SO YOU COULD SEE BETTY?
*Betty’s look of happiness and disbelief when she see’s Jughead
*Jughead helping to push the window up because it was so unnecessary, Betty obviously could’ve done it on her own but he just wanted to help out bae
*”Hey there Juliet” (Also Cole looked freaking attractive in this shot)
*The way Betty relaxes and sighs as soon as Jughead puts his hand on her arm
*The way that Jughead’s joke about everyone being crazy seems to actually calm Betty down a lot
*the way that Jughead chokes up and keeps looking from Betty’s eyes to her lips
*THE INCREDIBLY SWEET AND TENDERNESS OF THE KISS
*Betty’s happy smile afterward
*The way Jughead sighs like this is something he has been waiting for and he can’t believe that it actually happened
*Jughead’s tender and adorable smile when Betty starts talking about the car (He’s so in love) and how he isn’t bothered by her sudden change of topic because he knows how much it was driving her crazy.
*”OUR MOMENT” heck yes finally
*How both of them just immediately continue like nothing has happened, because it felt so right and so normal and it didn’t change their dynamic at all because they were already basically married.
*Also…the way they were standing so close and how Betty glances down at Jughead’s lips at the end of the shot my little shipper heart is hoping that they kissed again after the scene ended.
anti bughead shippers (rant)
^ okay so i understand yall don't ship betty and jughead together but could yall please stop using the bughead tag to trash our ship? can't we just respect each other's opinions/ships & support our show together? like why do some of yall have to be so flipping problematic.
Archie (◕︵◕)
*Spoiler 1.08
