[ The video opens to an image of one Cheryl Blossom, looking particularly poised. She’s smiling at the camera--and it might be your imagination, but the grin seems as though it’s off, as though the wattage is a bit too bright to be genuine. Her lipstick is bright, too, an intense red that matches what you can see of the outfit that she’s wearing.

Oh, yeah, and there’s someone in the background, too. The camera seems to be angled to minimize them as much as possible, though. ]

Hello, superpowered citizenry from many worlds over. You may not know me, but I’m sure there will be whisperings regarding my arrival soon enough. I’m Cheryl Blossom.

[ She says this as though it explains everything.]

I’ll spare you the details of my powers and such, but rest assured, I’m here to make Heropa a much more interesting place. Starting with a little housewarming party--I’ll go ahead and write the address below, party people.

[ In the background an exasperated 'Cheryl' is voiced and a few moments later the camera is angled differently to show another person and not just one. Unlike Cheryl, Veronica's smile is a little warmer and less edged but she looks just as poised and put together. ]

Hello everyone, I'm Veronica Lodge and I have a few questions here. First, where are the places to see and been seen around here? The latter I hope to avoid as much as possible. Second, anyone have tips on winning the fight against humidity for your hair? This is a nightmare.

Lastly, the housewarming party is something we will be working on and more details will be soon. But I can say it will be really sweet.

If anyone needs a little pep in their life, let me know because a little bling can go a long way. Or if anyone needs any makeovers, we will be your girls. Isn't that right, Cheryl?

[ Cheryl rolls her eyes.]

It’s only my job, Veronica. I’m not an amateur.

[Because she just can't help herself.]

Sorry, sweeties. If you were thinking "not being seen" was an option, you will be... very disappointed. Especially for a pair like you.

We're all celebrities here.

I'm used to being known. Even if no one in this world seems to know moi, I'm hardly going to let down my family legacy. Besides, it will be fun to climb my way back up to household name.

And who are you, by the by?

[deadsmizing]

Karen DeSonne. First darling undead daughter of De Chima.

[She says it with some irony, but there maaaaaaay actually be a few billboards and buses with her picture on them in a cheerleading uniform, advertising the local football team.]

[ Displeasure flickered across her face for a moment. ]

Simply because of the so-called abilities we have? Quaint. [ She paused for a moment. ] How long have you been here?

[deadsmizing]

A couple of months. It's been... quite the adventure.

[Karen sighs and gives her a sympathetic smile.]

I did mean it, though. That I'm sorry. Apparently, the people getting imported have been playing... at heroes and villains for so... long, the natives can't think of us any other way.

Ronnie? [SORRY CHERYL... Archie is easily distracted. Give him a second.] I— when did you guys get here? [Wait, humidity...] Are you in Florida?

Ronnie? How many red guitars has Veronica attempted to give to you, Archibald?

[ SHE SEES HOW IT IS. ]

Yes, we are. I did say Heropa, after all.

[wreckshavoc]

[ A bright smile filled Ronnie's face to see Archie. Finally, something good. ] Hey Archiekins. Not that long ago and yes we are.

[Fuck her gently with a chainsaw.]

That depends on the city. De Chima's lousy with reporters whenever new imPorts come in, so maybe avoid that until you've settled in more. [Says the girl living in De Chima and wearing this jumper and blouse combo, with a hat to keep the worst of the sun out of her eyes.] As for fighting the humidity, just wear your hair up. Or get it as dry as possible before stepping out.

[video] [cw: ableism?]

[hashtagtwinning]

Oh my god. Are you blind, or did you just get dressed in the dark? Or is it an uncanny amalgam of both?

[ She keeps grinning, sweetly. She can put her hair up, sure! Got any red scrunchies, Veronica? ]

[video]

[wreckshavoc]

[ Looking at the girl for a moment, Veronica nodded her head to herself. ] Speaking of makeovers. We can both help you if you would like. Spruce you up.

Oh I love parties! But uh...how do you get rid of a hangover? Last time I felt like I was dying again. Wasn't fun.

[Video]

[wreckshavoc]

I tend to drink water along with what I'm drinking. Then, I don't really have hangovers. But otherwise, greasy food the morning after.

[cleptes]

[ Coiffed to perfection, these teenaged girls seemed to be. Something that an equally coiffed Bela can appreciate. ]

Your lipstick is fabulous, darling. You should tell me where you got it.

[ And, to not let Veronica feel left out. ]

Veronica, was it? I love what you're wearing.

[wreckshavoc]

[ A twinged smile filled her face. ]

Aren't you complimentary. You must have good taste.

[ She paused and then added. ] We should all go shopping.

[ if anyone knows how to fight humidity, it's raven reyes. just blow shit up, that tends to do the trick. but looking good has never been on the top of her list — though, she does wonder what kind of alcohol these two will be supplying. might be worth rsvping if it's anything like monty's moonshine. it might be worth telling her secret if it means she can get drunk on good shit. ]

[ she cocks her brow. ] And why will people be whispering about your arrival?

VIDEO.

[wreckshavoc]

[ the not caring about looking good is more than apparent to veronica's eyes as she took in the girl's appearance. you really could tell a lot about a person with how they dressed and their posture. ]

Cheryl likes to believe she's practically royalty.

[bragnificent]

Oh, now this is rich-- you two are living together? Is that what's happening? So how long until we can expect to see a cat-fight then, huh?

[ His oh-so-helpful contribution here... but he's happy to see you girls, really. Probably. No... really. ]

Word of advice, though: if you want your party to be any good, it helps to actually know people. Because trust me, no one here's gonna care about who you were back in Riverdale.

VIDEO.

[wreckshavoc]

[ Eyes narrowing, she kept a smile on her face regardless. ]

Probably around the time you have one with Archie. [ Don't think she's forgotten about their moments of animosity. ]

[ Careful Reggie, you're travelling onto thin ice. ] In twenty minutes, we can meet and know plenty of people, Reggie. And who we are has everything to do with that.

VIDEO.

[hashtagtwinning]

[ Cheryl purses her lips. One of Archie's numbskull friends--not to mention Jason's. ]

The fact that you think I care about your measly opinion is astounding, Reginald. I intend to prove that Riverdale Royalty is still royalty, even if it takes some work on my part. I have more than enough confidence in myself.

[Despite the multitude of things that went wrong at the last party Gar went to, the possibility of another one so soon has him buzzing enthusiastically. Because he is a dumb boy. A dumb, dumb boy.]

That sounds awesome! Is this one, uh- at the last party, nobody checked I.D.

[His way of sheepishly asking a question without actually asking a question.]

Also, it's kinda hard to not be seen around here unless you just stay at home.

[wreckshavoc]

[ With an eyebrow raised, she regarded the guy for a moment. ] How old are you? [ He looked really young but then again it could be difficult to tell sometimes. ]

But the crowds calm down, don't they?

[hashtagtwinning]

If you have to ask if we're checking identification, you are more than officially uninvited.

[am_i_a_monster]

What kind of makeovers do you do?

video.

[wreckshavoc]

All kinds, just whatever is needed. Sometimes the full package is needed the most.
