#i used to have scooby themed birthdays and sometimes just random scooby themed parties in general

Listen I kind of hate adding my voice/opinion to the atrocity that is Velma but as far as I’m concerned the only legitimate “adult Scooby Doo”

(editing this to say that I mean this in the context of like, if we’re not allowed to consider the previous cartoons/Scooby movies “adult” for whatever reason, personally I think the cartoons and the live action movies are equally for adults as much as they are for kids)

worth any merit has always been The Cabin in the Woods.

Which was, for anyone who didn’t know, actually a really cool and interesting plot line about very close and loving college friends (a stereotypical jock who actually is a sociology major, a stereotypical popular girl who is a pre-med student, a nerdy/dorky football player, a super smart pothead with an extendable bong, and a secretly badasss shy girl)

They’re kind of like if all of the Scooby Gang members traits were put into 5 people (except Marty is a one to one for Shaggy tbh)

And they did a really cool thing either the trailer way back when it first came out where they made it seem like just another stereotypical teen slasher flick but then you watch it and realise it’s basically Scooby Doo meets SCP meets The Evil Dead. Sure, there’s still no talking dog, and sure horrible things happen to the characters but tbh they all have a more dignified existence than any of the characters in “Velma” not that that’s saying much tbh

Also it literally gave us this gif:

Which is a gif I imagine we will be seeing a lot of once the Velma show gets thrown in the trash or Matthew Lillard decides to use 0.1% of his power against the team behind it.

OTP Questions ~

Since I rarely get asks for those silly ask games, and I’m feeling like blah currently, I decided that I would answer all 15 OTP questions without being prompted because I can, so there! Lol :P 

Prepare for a lot of random Tessa and Alex facts!

1. Who said I love you first? - Alex, he said it to Tessa when they were 15 and she promptly broke up with him afterwards. It was a bad bad time in her life and she did some stupid shit, but thankfully they got past it.

2. Who laughs and kisses their partner on the cheek while their partner isn’t happy about something trivial to try and make them feel better? - Tessa, she knows when Alex is grouchy and how to make him feel better. Whereas is Tessa is in a mood, it’s better to just stand back or suffer the consequences. 

3. Who cuddles up to the other after a long day at work, and this soon escalates to a playful pillow fight? - Both? That could literally be either one of them at any time of the day, and typically the pillow fight will dissolve into something more ‘mature’.

4. What is something that they gave one another that has a lot of meaning? - They’re not really materialistic people, although anyone could claim that Tessa is just due to her upbringing. The things they’ve given each other that hold a lot of significance in their lives are moments or gestures, like when Tessa swallowed her hot girl head cheerleader pride and wore a Star Wars inspired dress to their senior prom for Alex. The theme was space and even though she threatened all her friend’s lives and limbs if even one considered showing up in cosplay, she did wear a dress with the Death Star designed on the skirt. 

5. How would one another describe their partner? - Tessa would describe Alex as Daphne from Scooby Doo, whereas Alex would just sigh and say ‘crazy’.

6. Who wraps their arms around their partner as they look them in the eyes and compliments them with a goofy smile? - Alex, one hundred percent Alex. He has always had a goofy lovestruck grin when it comes to Tessa, even when they were kids.

7. Who loves saying ‘my wife’ or ‘my husband’ or ‘my spouse’? - Both, because for a long time they weren’t sure they’d ever get there. There was no future for them, not long term, not that they thought. So to be in a place where they’re married, it’s amazing to them.

8. Who always talks about how amazing their partner is when their partner isn’t there and they just light up with genuine love and happiness? - Alex mostly, he can ruin a guys night out real quick with just one mention of Tessa.

9. Who loves it when their partner kisses them good morning? - Both, it’s the first thing they do before even rolling out of bed, morning breath be dammed.

10. Who shows the other how to balance a spoon on their nose? - Tessa, she has an ungodly sense of balance with literally everything, it’s almost otherworldly.

11. Who loves to pull pranks on the other? What type of pranks do they pull and do they pull their pranks off? - They’re not really a pranking couple, Alex isn’t insane enough to do that and Tessa isn’t childish enough too. Although they aren’t above pranking their friends, because together their schemes can be truly evil.

12. What is something small that they would randomly pick up for one another? - Tessa would probably grab a book or comic or game or something ‘nerdy’ that Alex mentioned in passing that he liked or wanted to grab at some point, and Alex would definitely bring food. Like not junk food or anything, but Tessa’s a ballet dancer and he knows she sometimes skips meals because she’s busy or tired so things like water, fruit, nuts, protein bars, etc. That kind of thing is always on him so he can be like; have you eaten? Have you drank? No? Here, have this.

13. Who is the one who can’t stop laughing when trying to tell a joke? - Neither, they’re not those type of people. They’re both very sarcastic, very witty. Alex has a very dry witt, his replies are quick and biting. Whereas Tessa’s more scathing, she doesn’t really tell jokes. In her mind, her friends are her jokes.

14. Who would plan the other a surprise birthday party? - Oh, neither. Both of them hate surprises and both of them hate parties that require their friends and families get together. The best birthday surprise for either of them would be a quiet get away, where they didn’t have to do anything or deal with anyone.

15. Who picks the other person up when hugging their partner? - Alex, he’s five inches taller than Tessa which really bugged her when they were teenagers because she use to be taller than him but once they hit puberty he shot up and by the time they were out of high school he was 6′2 whereas she was 5′9. He does enjoy picking her up as often as possible, she says it’s just because he’s a show off.
