Before I will start this fanfic, there are some things I want/need to clear up.
1. Since I never planned on continuing this to include actual events of the show, I did not really bother with checking if the timeline completely fits, so please bear with me here and just pretend it does when we reach a point where I might not be able to talk my way around the fact that I might have messed it up a little somewhere earlier.
2. This is going to be an Alternate Universe story still. It will feature FP's involvement with Jason's murder and it will focus on how their newfound relationship might cope with that. There will be some significant changes to some parts of the original events, but I still try to overall keep with canon, too, and will be following season 2 events and episodes down the line.
3. I will be introducing people like Tony and Sweet Pea for example earlier in this story than they had been introduced in the show, because I'm focusing on the South Side and the serpents and they did not just appear in town the moment Jughead changed schools.
4. However as much A/U as this is, I will NOT be introducing characters we are promised to still be seeing on the show when it comes back on air in January. At least not, until we finally do know them and I don't have to make my own characterization, which would probably mess with the concept of staying as canon as possible while being A/U still. That means, if you want to meet Betty's long lost brother, for example, you'll have to wait until I reach the point in my story where he actually shows up in Riverdale.
5. I had people pointing out, that I need to break up Betty and Jughead, because their parents being together makes them essentially brother and sister. Let me just clarify once and for all, that this is stupid and crap, and I like Bughead, and as long as they are not broken up in canon, I will do no such thing in my story either. (Still hoping they get to work things out again on the show!!)
6. I also had people pointing out, that I'm off with my past timeline, since I'm always going with 20 years and that won't fit. IT DOES. We have no indication of the actual age of the parents and with Polly being 18 and Betty 16/17 they could totally have an older brother who's barely 20. I know, Betty said he's in his early twentys, but is this really something to get your panties in a twist over? It's my Alternate Universe Timeline, and if I make it twenty years, then it's twenty years.
I think that's it, at least for now. Thank you for sticking through my rambling.
Love,
Jordan
