AN: Scooby-Doo is awesome. Not new, just moved.
The differences are subtle-a change in tone, in vocabulary. A hardening of the eyes. A relaxation of his posture. The untrained eye will miss all of these. But she can always tell.
Sometimes the signs aren't so obvious-a tightening of the grip, for instance, or a sudden decision to sing the Scooby-Doo theme in the shower. She can tell then, too, but sometimes it takes it a minute to register.
The most subtle sign of all is his handwriting. If Jonathan leaves her a note-Gone out shopping-it's always in a messy doctor's scrawl. Sometimes she has to strain to read it because he's barely pressed the pen to the paper.
Scarecrow doesn't leave notes when he can help it. When he does, they're borderline illegible-Gotcha something, meet me in the bedroom at six.
Oh, yes, the differences are subtle. But they're there, and she can always spot them.
THE END
