I'm just gonna drop em here

With Tumblr communities now a thing… who else would totally join a Scooby Doo! Mystery Incorporated community if it was a thing? 👀

I mean it’s a tiny niche fandom from a “kid’s show” that ended over 10 years ago and was low key even when it came out. Seems like exactly the kind of thing a Tumblr community would be perfect for.

Sdmi au post 2! Or is it 3?…

If you don’t know what I’m talking about this is the previous post for my sdmi au, which has a link to the first one.

I’m gonna call the og mystery inc the “OG gang” and the current mystery inc “Treasure Hunter gang.” REMEMBER THISSSS (this is more to me than to you lol)

More info time! <3

Brad and Judy are doctors and their job takes up a lot of time, though they do make a good living off it. They are pretty exhausted and aren’t around at home during most of the day for Fred. And when they are they are very burnt out from work. (Of course they don’t mean to neglect Fred, but they do- see my last au post for what Fred does due to that.)

Marcie is actually considered a popular student in this au, she won a certain competition (probably a science fair or something like that) and got a lot of recognition. Her fathers theme park is a little more active but they are still relatively poor. She isn’t a fan of being popular since she doesn’t really like all the kids being on her for questions, or asking her to do their homework.

Jones…I actually kinda struggled on what I would do with his character since a lot of it hinged on being a greedy mayor and Fred’s father, at least on the surface. But I think I did pretty decently with his character.

He would be double crossed by Pericles instead of the other way around, and get a pretty long sentence in a maximum security prison. But their comes a time in the story where the og gang want information about the planispheric disc- so they can get all the pieces before Pericles does. Jones gives them some information, but leaves out some of the aspects that reveal how truly dangerous this treasure is, so they don’t take it away from him once he plans to get it.

Him staying at the prison has let him be VERY corrupted. He really lacks any sort of feeling other than a desire for the disc- but this in turn makes the best part of him just that desperate so he latched onto anything that could keep him somewhat resistant to the curse.

He escapes prison soon after the visit from the og mystery inc and teams up with Pericles early season 2, or whatever this aus equivalent of it is, under the promise that he and Pericles would share the disc and whatever power they had. The Treasure Hunter gang would also team up with Pericles again at this point.

Pericles uses him as a tool to demonstrate to the Treasure Hunter gang what will happen if they don’t fall in line. (Jones gets the snake torture :[ ) Jones defends the kids when Pericles goes a bit to far in his harshness towards them, which results in what I just said.

I would add more too this but I wanna also focus on other characters in this post so that’s all your getting of him for now.

George Avocados is the mayor in this au. He’s also after the treasure since he found some old research papers from Jones. He doesn’t have clear idea of what he’ll do with the treasure, but he assumes he will prosper once he gets it since he doesn’t know why anyone else would want it so bad other than for fortune. Eventually he gets caught trying to steal pieces from the Treasure Hunter kiddos and gets arrested. The Og mystery inc end up taking Avocados research finding along with Jones research papers and documents.

Sheriff Stone is still Sheriff in this au, and he is constantly catching Daphne and Fred doing vandalism or catching them hanging out with dangerous people. He occasionally catches Velma and Shaggy staying at libraries WAY past their closing time.

He puts on a tough face and a grumpy attitude toward the kids, but does genuinely worry for them- and their parrot gives him the creeps!

Avocados often orders him around and treats him worse than Jones would. Plus they are hardly friends. The Sheriff catches the OG gang trespassing and once they explain their situation and why they are doing it he is skeptical, but he lets them go, since he doesn’t want those kids getting into anymore freaky business.

He often lets the OG gang go and makes excuses so they don’t face charges for their mysteries, he really only ever arrests them once or twice, and it was because he couldn’t make any sort of defense for them.

Once Mayor Nettles shows up their relationship progresses pretty similar to the show, but it’s gonna be sorta sweet since Sheriff Stone isn’t used to have a mayor treat him with respect.

Mayor Nettles tries to take more initiative to protect the kids but she ultimately ends up failing, for reasons I’ll take about in the next post.

I think I’ll stop here but this ain’t the last post! I’m very excited to continue with this au.

My mom gave me this idea. Now I have a headcanon that Janet really loves skiing 🎿

Okay, but listen me out

Au where ex-Mayor Jones is out on parole (bc he is a politician of course, he can and will escape from consequences) doing community service. Enough morally grey to be still torn between the treasure and is damn "son".

Than Judy and Brad come back and Fred Jones sr in all his morally corrupted glory realized that he royally fucked up, because the two thieves are even worse than him and he tries to help the kids (like really bad, like giving them of how break the law advice).

Also, sorry, but after a while I think he ends up crashing on the Sheriff's couch because Judy and Brad take his (Fred jr's house now) house. Do what you do with this information, but I bet Janet Nettles hates his ass (she's right and she should say that louder) because she is one of the rare politicians with good morals, also she knows Jones is pathetically not straight and the sheriff is absolutely oblivious. She doesn't know Jones has no intention to make a move on the sheriff because he likes them dumb, but that man is really too much dumb. Also fucking Sheriff is straight as a pole and too oblivious to be alive.

I know the sheriff lives with his mother, but I think she needs a break from his son, she deserve to be free from this absolutely moron of a man. She saw Janet Nettles and said: "Now, he's your problem". She persuaded him to take an apartment in town, so he could start his lovely love nest with the woman and then fucking ex-mayor crashed in .

I’m not entirely happy with these, but I figure I might as well post them since I spent the time making them. Some explorative screenshot edits of Mayor Nettles based on my Post-Nibiru AU re-design of her! The idea here is that Crystal Cove needs to be rebuilt after all of the destruction(and she reads to me as a hands on type of leader) and her usual attire isn’t exactly ideal for that.

So! We have her hair pulled up into a bun and instead of her usual suit, a jumpsuit like the ones pictured below. Original screenshot under the read more!

I JUST noticed this picture in the background while watching a review of this show.

...You know, the animators really are the saving grace for this show. Because even they have more care and love for the source material to even reference the mayor of the BEST Scooby-Doo show.

Velma show still sucks BUT WHO CAUGHT THE SDMI REFERENCES IN THE MAYORS OFFICE!!!!!

You fully gave me brainworms(/pos) with the last post and I have a thought that only just registered. Ashley and I had been talking the other day about the reality of post S1 MI I going by their names again and or being back in town if their families are still alive and with that in mind:

Adds a whole nother layer to the scene in Beware the Scarebear when Ricky tries to get the kids arrested and in general if he’s Quinlan and Mayor Nettles’ cousin. Because while we have no clue about the parents, we do know that those two are alive and in Crystal Cove to find out “Hey MI didn’t die when they disappeared and they’ve all changed in bad ways(minus Cassidy) since then!”

Oh yeah! (I had this idea like a year ago and never did anything with it.)

I'm sort of picturing their dynamic as Quin being the youngest at like 12, Janet being the middle at 14, and Ricky being the oldest at 16/17 when he disappeared. But Ricky babysat them a lot when they were young, particularly Quin. He occasionally brought them with him on mysteries much to the annoyance of Brad, Judy, and Pericles. Cassidy didn't mind but worried about them getting hurt.

Quin always had anxiety, but her anxiety worsened, because her older cousin, who she thought was so brave and capable, vanished without a trace. It affected her severely into her adulthood, and once she learned what had become of Ricky, she freaked, badly. She called Janet right away, and Janet came over to help calm her down.

Janet spent a long time searching for Ricky as a teenager, but once she was a bit older, came to the conclusion that he had died. She left Crystal Cove and never really wanted to come back, but the real reason she did was because of how scared Quin was, and Quin refused to leave. Anyway, she learns that Ricky is alive before Quin, and doesn't tell her. She's very angry about it, and very nearly slaps him when he shows up at the police station, but keeps her calm. Ricky, who is so consumed by the curse at that point, doesn't even really register that Janet is his little cousin. Janet did however, talk to Cassidy, and Cassidy explained a little bit.

Pretty much as soon as Ricky left the sheriff's office, and she was able to leave, she went to go stay with Quin for the night. Just so angry at what her cousin had become, poisoning the environment, and hurting children.

Mayor Nettles: What are you guys talking about?

Sheriff Stone: Compassion.

Mayor Nettles: So that was a pretty short conversation, huh?

Ex-Mayor Jones: Nobody thinks I have feelings!

Mayor Nettles: Jones, that's not fair. You have feelings... You just have them buried somewhere in a shallow grave out in Jersey.
