[ her brows lift impossibly high, but that's her only reaction for a bit. that feels like so long ago, even if it really wasn't. she takes another quick look around the room, finds a chair to stand next to, lean on a bit, buy herself some time. why would this place bring Jughead in before her and Archie? how is that even possible? as far as she understood things, that storm wiped out everything. if she were more cynical she'd assume they were being lied to, but she won't jump to that conclusion just yet. even if she's sure Jug probably already has by now. ]

So then I suppose the next burning question is: How much do you want to know? About the future of Riverdale. I don't have much time on you, but- it's enough. Or you could tell me what Archie and I have missed out on here. [ she pauses, head tilted a bit as her brow furrows ] I can't figure out if you're the type that would want to know everything right away, or wait to find out for himself.
