family circle, the cold homestead, all in the family

Given that the Little Archie version condenses this story from 6 to 5 pages, it is a little curious this gets topped off with this expository thingy. But maybe Dexter Taylor thought this would take it into a semblance of topicality, befitting a title inspired by a popular sitcom. And the Little Archie story follows exactly the first two into the fourth page anyways. Except that it inserts Spotty to lead Fred to Pop Tate to get Archie upon walking into an empty home. In the other two Fred just figured that was where he would be.

I think for a split second Mary Andrews may be accusing Fred Andrews of cheating, or rather simply offering amorous affection to another woman. I am not sure how else to read it.

It might be a mark of Betty's lack of import in the life of Archie 1951 that he refers to a "Mrs. Cooper" that is friends with his mom and does not get her confused with Betty's mom. Upon returning home, the first versions get bored, while the third Little Archie variant skips to mom and teen calling their friends in.

Militias not allowed into the Little Archie world.

Little Archie and friends are listening to Reggie's disco albums. Different musical accompaniment then the other two. I wonder if given an extra page, Dexter Taylor would have wanted to fill this panel out a little.

So. It is an anti-family time message from Archie Comics. Or maybe just a pro-bowling one.

K-Tel must have been been low on original names: they released “20 Explosive Hits” in 1971 and “22 Explosive Hits” [in small print next to the price sticker: “Volume 2″] in 1972.

Also, and this is just me who has some eclectic musical knowledge but doesn’t claim to know everything: For sure I know 11 off the first and 5 off the second, though probably know a few more at hearing them, so maybe in the early 70s they were ‘explosive’ but now about half of this music gets zero airplay, even the stuff by big names like Tommy James and The Osmonds. [edit: YouTubed all of the unfamiliars... For sure I did not know 7 off the first or 14 off the second, and two of the songs I know but as done by other people.]

I leave you now with this track off the second album: Hot Butter - “Popcorn”, a song that TV and radio stations would play chunks of in ads and bumpers all the time but not necessarily play the whole damned song on its own.

If anyone has a time machine, please let me know. I need to go back to 1972 and buy a K-Tel Record Selector for $3.99.

Little Life

Pairing: Enzo Berkshire x fem!Reader

Summary: Y/n and Enzo are talking about their future

Warnings: a lot of dialogue, possible grammar mistakes, fluff, fem reader, cuddling, mention of Y/n, no specific hogwarts house, already established relationship

Wordcount: 0,5 k

Masterlist

Y/n never needed a lot to be happy. She had everything she wanted. A loving family, nice friends, a lovely boyfriend. She had nature and books and poetry. She learned something new every day and she was grateful for the lake on the school grounds that was so lovely to look at. She never wanted more. If she asked for more, what would she might get? She didn’t want to know. She didn’t need to know what could be. She was happy with what she had. But sometimes she wanted just a bit more in the future.

Enzo was never sure if she was just lying or being truly genuine when she told him about her dreams at night. The two would be cuddled up together and whenever one couldn’t sleep, the other would talk. Which was mostly Y/n. She liked talking to someone who was willing to listen, she didn’t know a lot of those people. People she would open up to like this.

“I want to live in a little cottage somewhere quiet. Near the forest, but not in the forest because that scares me. I want to live near a lake, where I can sit down at and read for ours. I want my own library. I want a nice bed, big enough for the two of us. I want books over books and records over records. I want to be save and I want to be loved. And I want to love,” If she would let herself she would tel him even more.

“What else?” Enzo asked her. Fascinated by how she could tell him so easily, that she wanted to have future with him. She wanted a future after Hogwarts.

He didn’t care how much she would tell him, he wanted to hear everything. Every word, every syllable. If he had to, he would also gladly listen to just the silence surrounding her.

“I want a white house, or a stone one. But not one like in London. Not one that you would find somewhere in some crowded street. And I want a hundred summer dresses. I want skirts and blouses and I want to have flowers everywhere. In the cold seasons, I want a fireplace. Something to keep us warm. I wanna write books and get money through that. I want to listen to music the whole day.” She stopped talking and looked up at him. He was already watching her, admiration decorating his eyes. “But you know what I want the most?” She asked him softly.

“What is it?” He asked back, having no idea what would come.

“You,” She answered simply. “I could have the most terrible life, but if it’s with you, it’d be worth it.”

“Are you serious?” The boy asked back. He’d never heard anyone say that in real life. It was always in books or movies where they would let their words be this honest. Y/n loved muggle rom-coms so he’s seen quite a few over the time and knew that she could be right out of one. He always knew that. She was just too perfect to him to even be real.

She only nodded her head. There were no words needed to confirm that she hadn’t lied once that day. She’d never lie to him.

“I adore you, I hope you know that,” Enzo said, making Y/n blush.

The girl buried her head in his chest, giggling in embarrassment.

“What? You can say something romantic, but I can?”

“No!” She said, still laughing. “You just take compliments better than me.”

The #1 song from 50 years ago was Al Wilson's "Show and Tell". If I remember correctly I had this on a K-Tel record. ________________________ Show and Tell Songwriter: Jerry Fuller
