FANDOM: Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!
FIC LINK: Vietnam | Scars | Let Sleeping Dogs
AUTHOR LINK: Rorschach's Blot
RATING/WARNING(S): T, M, T
WIP?/WORD COUNT: Complete, 1796 words, 4679 words, 2630 words respectively
MAIN CHARACTERS: Shaggy Rogers

FIC SUMMARY: A trilogy of oneshot fics concerning Shaggy as a Vietnam war veteran.

RECCER'S NOTES: The premise is treated very seriously and provides some explanation for some of Shaggy's canonical character traits. If you're wondering how this series came to be, the writer was inspired by a trip to a video store, where one television had some Scooby-Doo clips on and the other had a war film. The original cartoon took place in the late 1960s and early 1970s, so the idea of one of Mystery Inc being a Vietnam veteran came to mind.

This is such a fascinating concept when taken seriously, wow. I'm not even in this fandom at all, but the idea itself is enough to make me want to read the fic. *bookmarks it*
