All rights go to Warner Bros. This story takes place 7 years after Shaggy's Weird Summer and Shaggy's Bizarre Halloween. Warning: There is nudity, but nothing sexual or explicit. Enjoy.

One would think that Shaggy's nudism was just a fad. Something that he would do for a few months before dropping it entirely. Surely, there was no way that Shaggy would continue doing something as bizarre as living a life with no clothing.

Well, you would be wrong.

Walking around in the nude became a permanent part of Shaggy's life and the universe let it happen. The ONLY time he would consider wearing anything is if the weather was cold. Besides that, he was completely exposed to Mother Nature 24/7. And after a while, no one really cared anymore. Everyone accepted that this was how Shaggy was going to live his life and nothing was going to stop him.

But that wasn't the only thing that was happening. After their two prior incidents, Mystery Inc. did indeed make solving mysteries a regular thing. The more they did it, the more competent they became at it and as a result, they started growing a reputation. And that reputation would lead to them getting attention from the media. Eventually, the whole country knew who they were, and soon enough, they became celebrities.

Now, Shaggy was 17 and you would think that his celebrity status would change him in some way. Nope. He was still doing the nudism thing, still spending most of his personal time with Scooby-Doo, and his appetite was still endless. He had recently been experimenting with marijuana and he spent a good amount of time playing video games at his house. He started to live stream and he became known as 'Ultra Instinct Shaggy' online due to how skilled he was at video games. He even started making money through his live streams thanks to his skill level and laid-back personality. Not to mention showing his feet.

He and Scooby still did their special little things, like eating Scooby snacks together, showering together, and him letting Scooby lick his feet. Shaggy knew what he was doing was odd and weird, but he didn't care since people have called him weird his entire life. Instead of being ashamed, he was going to embrace his weirdness.

On this particular day, Shaggy was live streaming a Mortal Kombat game, displaying his bare feet in front of the camera, as he answered questions from his chat.

"Are you single or are you taken? I'm single and I'm not looking to mingle anytime ever. I'm not really into the whole romance thing. I know Fred, Daphne, and Velma are, but not me. So, yeah, I am off the market." said Shaggy.

Shaggy read another question and said, "Are you a stoner?"

"Yeah, I've been smoking weed recently. It's the only drug I'm willing to take. It definitely does the job and I enjoy it."

But one question hit Shaggy unexpectedly hard. And it said, "Do you think you're the weak link in Mystery Inc.?"

Shaggy had to think about it for a bit because he didn't exactly have a defined role in the group and honestly felt out of place sometimes. Fred was the leader, Velma was the smart one, and Daphne had developed into a fighter. Meanwhile, he and Scooby were still scared of everything and were generally used as bait to capture the 'monsters'. And while he really liked his friends, the feeling of uselessness crept up on him regularly and it really brought his mood down.

"Honestly, man, I do feel that way sometimes. Like, I don't have a problem with Fred, Velma, or Daphne. They're great. They've been my friends since elementary school. But I do think I could do more. But I don't know man. Things could be better." Shaggy answered.

After answering a few more questions, Shaggy ended the live stream and looked at Scooby, who was chewing on a rubber bone. Scooby noticed Shaggy's expression and looked worried.

"Shaggy, are you okay?" asked Scooby.

"Yeah, Scoob. I'm okay. I'm just thinking about some stuff." said Shaggy.

"What kind of stuff?" asked Scooby.

"Stuff that's not fun to think about." said Shaggy.

"Oh. Do you need me to lick you?" asked Scooby.

"Not tonight, Scoob. Maybe another night." said Shaggy.

About an hour later, Shaggy and Scooby were in bed, with both Shaggy and Scooby on top of the covers.

"Goodnight, Shaggy." said Scooby.

"Goodnight, Scoob." Shaggy said before the two friends went to sleep.

Hope you enjoyed the chapter. I chose to make Shaggy a live streamer because I thought it would be interesting and Shaggy already has a large Internet presence in the real world. And by showing off his feet on camera, Shaggy's well aware of how the Internet operates. I also made him a stoner because…come on, it's Shaggy. Also, I had to include the Ultra Instinct Shaggy meme in this story and the Mortal Kombat reference because it was essential. Anyway, like the previous Shaggy stories, this will last 5 chapters and the next chapter will revolve around Shaggy's daily routine. In addition, I'm working on a bunch of stories at once and I'll try to update as much as I can, even with college being my mortal enemy. Other than that, I hope you all have a wonderful day. Bye for now and stay safe.
