My favourite part is right near the end, with the chocolates, and Veronica's reaction to it. One of the funnier jokes in recent Archie history, if not the best.

Overall I'm happy with how it was handled, though I was surprised to see noob and fail used, since not everyone reading it will be familiar with those terms.

I think that was kinda the point... he didn't need to be all crazy or anything- he was just some normal gay guy. The "Shopping" thing was viewed as a stereotype, but c'mon- these stereotypes came about for a reason. It'd actually be LESS realistic if Kevin had NONE of the popular gay stereotypes- let him be a proud shopper and snappy dresser .

That said, having him be a hanger-on buddy of either Jughead (many similar interests) or Ronnie will leave him doomed to the same pile of characters that Nancy, Ginger and others ended up on- people with little depth. Maybe playing the two off of each other or trying to make the peace? Further background with this "William" character he was texting all the time? He'll probably need a little bit more to make him stand out, aside from not being interested in the ladies.
