I've shared these many times already, but now here's... everything in a single post. Thank you, @quinton-reviews for this saga, and most importantly, fuck Dan Schneider and anyone else who exploits and abuses children (and yes, this includes Drake Bell, as glad as I am that he got his story told); Dan may not have done anything to the kids himself, but it's pretty clear he didn't exactly help, either. In any case, hotlines can be found here and here, and if you haven't watched Quiet on Set already or read Jennette's book, I highly recommend that you do.
Okay, you can’t use Fred as the one to represent “awful, misogynistic, privileged white men” when that man was always a golden retriever of a human being.
In Mystery Incorporated, he cried because of how emotional he himself always is, he got instant PTSD in an episode where Daphne got kidnapped and for majority of the series, Daphne was just BEGGING for him to fuck her but he was oblivious and respected their friendship.
Sitcom/romcom-esque plot where Cucurucho tells Fred to keep an eye on Tubbo but smitten-but not yet-realized Fred keeps feeding Cucurucho the most random ass information such as "Did you know Tubbo loves trains ?" "Did you know Tubbo is very knowledgeable about plane crashes ?" "Did you know Tubbo is really good at Geography ?" Then just with time it just evolves into "Tubbo told me his favourite flower is ___" or that "Tubbo can't even start his day without drinking coffee yk hehe". All the while Cucurucho is just there like jfc 😐😐😐. God forbid you try to achieve something on this yaoi island
I actually really like the idea of a Scooby Doo prequel centered around the Mystery Gang before they became friends.
Velma is your typical nerd who's interested in true crime. She started off solving small mysteries around her neighborhood, like where someone's missing cat went or who stole someone's bike. Then, some sort of really big mystery happens that the police completely overlook. Maybe students are ending up dead or missing or something like that.
She goes to the same school as Fred, Daphne, and Shaggy, but never talked to them due to personal assumptions. Fred is a popular jock, and a lot of his teammates bully Velma and force her to do their homework for them, so she doesn't trust him either. Daphne is a pretty rich girl who hangs out with a group of mean girls who also make fun of girls like Velma. Even though Fred's group and Daphne's group overlap, the two of them have never really spoken to one another before. Then, there's Shaggy who always shows up to school late, never knows the answer to teachers' questions, and sleeps through half of his classes.
Eventually, one of Daphne's friends get kidnapped. So, one night, she sneaks into the school to find some clues at the same time as Velma. Fred's there because he forgot his uniform, and Shaggy just likes hanging out at the school to do his homework in peace and quiet. They all team up for a while until security gets involved, and Fred helps them into a speedy getaway as the only one with his driver's license.
With Fred driving them home, the group decides to at least have a temporary team-up. Daphne and Velma have a shared goal, Fred likes having friends for the first time in forever, and Shaggy doesn't want to be the odd man out.
They get closer as they solve the mystery together. Fred isn't a jerk, and is super sweet and amazing at building all sorts of things, especially traps. Shaggy always brings the gang food he made, and eventually introduces them to his talking dog who may or may not be immortal. Daphne invites everyone to her house for sleepovers, helps Velma explore her style in a way that's still comfortable to her, and reveals her endless knowledge about every single person in the entire town.
The mystery gets solved, and the four stays friends. The End :)
