Stories focused on the family and the friendly relationships of the cast. Plot-focused stories or light day-in-the-life stories. Pretty much anything that isn't focused on romance.
Long and Lustrous Winter
by livii.
- Recommended by Pichu
- Synopsis: This time, Betty thinks, as she fixes her ponytail with a slightly manic sense of determination, she's going to try being a lesbian. In which Betty Cooper learns a few life lessons. And again. And again. And again.
- Comments: Despite the synopsis it isn't really a shipping fic - it revolves around a Groundhog Day Loop. It's short, sweet, and to the point.
Stories focused on the romantic relationships between the cast.

Finding Their Footing by
Miggy
- Recommended by Cass
- Pairing: Reggie/Betty
- Synopsis: Life wasn't supposed to be this hard.

Friends Don't Let Friends Suffer Alone by tuesday
- Recommended by idratherbeloislane and Pichu
- Pairing: Veronica Lodge/Betty Cooper
- Synopsis: The problem with friends is that they plot against you.
- Comments: A really cute, but not too fluffy fic about Betty and her developing feelings for Veronica. The author does a really excellent job of portraying her friendship with all of her friends, even Cheryl Blossom.
Cars, Sandwiches and Other Kisses by yue ix
- Recommended by Pichu
- Pairing: Veronica Lodge/Betty Cooper
- Synopsis: Five times Betty and Veronica kissed.
- Comments: It's a WAFF if I've ever seen one. It's not particularly long and it's rather in-character too.
