    Summary

    Adriana is giggling and clapping and squealing so loudly that, along with the music playing from the stereo, no one hears Dad come in until there’s a sharp bark of “Edmundo!” from the kitchen.

    Eddie knows what that tone means, and he suddenly drops Nutcracker Barbie on her side, startling both Adriana and Sophia. He rushes from the playroom to the kitchen as Adri’s lower lip trembles.

    “Yes, Papi?” he asks cautiously, trying to ignore the sound of Adriana’s sudden wailing from the playroom.

    “How many boys do you know who play with dolls?”

    -

    Eddie and Barbies, through the years.

    Summary

    “…You want to?” he asks.

    Shane blinks. “What?”

    “Kiss someone.”

    The question makes Shane’s brain short circuit.

    Shane swallows. “I mean—yeah.”

    “Then why haven’t you?”

    “I don’t know.” Shane shrugs again, shoulders tight. “Timing. People. It’s just… not something I think about like that.”

    That’s not entirely true.

    He does think about it. Just in a different way. Abstractly. Like something other people do, but not he himself.

    Ilya watches him for a long moment.

    “I could show you.”

    Summary

    Archie takes a deep breath.

    "I'm gonna make him pay for doing this to you, Jug." he says, vitriol creeping up into his tone. "He's been hurting Betty too, and who knows what he's gonna do to Ronnie, but he can't keep getting away with this. I'm not gonna let him get away with this."

    Jughead laughs. It's quiet at first, small and for the most part controlled, but it doesn't take long for it to grow into something louder and more spontaneous, Jughead's eyes closing as he lets his head fall back into the motion of it.

    Archie frowns.

    "Sorry, sorry," Jughead says. "I'm not laughing at you, I promise, it's just... sweet. I think it's sweet."

    Summary

    “I really miss you, Jughead. I miss how things were, before Jason died and the Blackhood came and you joined the Serpents.” Archie says.

    “Yeah, well things change. It’s just part of growing up.”

    “I don't want us to change.” “Us” carries a lot of implications. “Girl” carries a lot of implications.

    “We already did.”

    Summary

    Ilya watches his fingers fiddle with it. “Hear what? Hear us sleep?” he scratches behind his own ear, helpfully. “I snore so loud?”

    “No, Ilya, they can hear us not sleep,” Shane leans forward, searching Ilya’s face. Almost. “What we do before we sleep.”

    And Shane knows he gets it, because his whole face lights up, and Shane isn’t really in the position to appreciate it fully because the context is just not allowing him to. And it makes him feel worse. “Ah, that!” Ilya is laughing, and he presses down on Shane’s neck more solidly, shaking him around a little, almost proud if Shane had to guess.

    or, Shane's roommates can hear him and Ilya when they have sex, and it becomes a problem
