    Summary

    "I was -- I need your help." Krugkoppe couldn't imagine any way that he could help Berte, but he nodded anyway. "Velvela the innkeeper's daughter is having a party tonight for the first night of Chanukah. I made a special dreidel for the party." From her pocket she withdrew a dreidel, a simple four-sided top, the kind children spun every year at Chanukah. "But Mama won't let me play with the boys, and only the boys play for money. Can you play for me?"

    Summary

    The boys fell silent and stared at her. Usually Berte did not speak up so loudly, or really speak to most of them except Avrum and Kreindel, her closest friends. Perhaps she had violated an unwritten social law by saying anything at all. But unwritten social laws are just as silly as customs that there are no reason for, she consoled herself.

    “What’s this? Berte loves Krugkoppe!” Reuven jeered at her. “When’s the wedding, Froi Krugkoppe?”

    Oh, she thought. *That* was why no one spoke up to defend him.

    (a prequel to "as the good book says")

    Summary

    "When you’re with him, you’re on fire. You’re free and full of life, you’re happy -- no, you’re not happy, not really, you’re too much in the moment to feel an emotion like happiness. You’re consumed by the possibilities he opens up to you."

    Summary

    The thing was, Archie was _good_, as wholesome as he was handsome, like a fairy-tale prince or Ted Danson. And at some inchoate level, Veronica knew that the kind of radiant goodness that Archie exuded as easily as breathing was a virtue that a Lodge did not deserve.

    Veronica is surprised when Archie shows up to clean after her party.

    Summary

    For Jughead's entire life, there had been a familiar pattern to their friendship: Betty had always been in love with Archie, Archie had always been happily oblivious to Betty's affections and displaying a disturbing tendency to fall head over heels for any girl passing by, and Jughead had been waiting for Archie to notice Betty.

    But recently -- while Jughead couldn't exactly say he'd ever been in love, or really felt love for anything other than a really good hamburger -- he was uncomfortably aware that he was having some kind of _feelings_ for Betty. The kind of feelings that would make it really, really hard for him to read Betty writing about her dream date with Archie.

    Summary

    It was like that thing that the talk shows always said -- you have to put on your own oxygen mask first, and then put it on your kids. You have to look out for yourself first. You have to do what’s right for you, even as your heart and brain and every sinew of your body scream at you that you’re doing the wrong thing.

    Gladys has never even been on a goddamned airplane.

    Summary

    “Krugkoppe, you -- you donkey!” Berte fumed. “Of course I would miss you. You're one of my oldest friends. What do you think I am, that I could forget about you?” Her fists clenched, fingernails biting into her palms.

    “I think you are a woman who is about to be married to the wealthiest man in the village,” Krugkoppe said quietly. “And I don't want to cause you any problems.”

    Summary

    continuation of 2.14.

    It was only afterwards -- after they got back to the Pembrooke, after he’d spoken to Hiram, after he’d sat through the three-course meal that was the Lodges’ version of a casual Sunday family meal, and after he and Veronica had completed a quick twenty-minute welcome-back-to-Riverdale-aren’t-you-glad-we’re-alive-me-too-you-on-top session, plus both making separate and necessary post-coital trips to the bathroom -- that Archie finally got around to asking the _other_ question on his mind.

    He shifted his weight awkwardly from foot to foot before sitting down on what was becoming “his” side of the bed. “So, you and Betty kissed?”

    Summary

    "Whatever was used to shoot Jason Blossom in the head cauterized the wound as it went. Whatever was used to kill him burned as it went through his skull.”

    Jughead tilted his head at her as he went through the implications. “So...like a phaser? Like Star Trek?”

    “That’s what it’s like, but that’s ridiculous.” Beside her, Rachel stiffened, gripping her fork tightly.
