Popping off the top, Velma was hit with a huge burst of amazing popcorn smell. It was intense, more then she had expected out of the tin. Fumbling into her pocket, she fished out of the small flashlight she always carried with her. An old mystery habit that she didn't mind doing... Well, as long as she remembered to not end up sleeping on it funny.

Peeking the little light into the rim of the tub, she chuckled at the contents.

"Well, this was one solved pretty easily. It's Scooby's. There is about half of it gone." Velma snickered, noticing that the Dane had in fact, taken a few bits out of the divider. Making some of the flavors fall into the other ones. Not that the dog would care if they mixed. It all went to the same place anyway.

"Oh, heh. Well one down." Shaggy laughed, though happy that she didn't just reach in and nab some to try it before he was able to stop her. "Scooby decided to be a bit adventurous when he picked his own. So I don't recommend just snacking on his without warning."

"Oh, what flavors is it?" Velma was curious, but she had been put off slightly at the intense smell that had come off of the popcorn. So she wasn't jumping to just dive her hand in and taste some without warning. It certainly wasn't something as simple as butter, or like a cheddar flavor. This was going to be a potent flavor profile with a bouquet like that.

"Uh..." Thinking back to the list, Shaggy recalled what Scooby had gotten. "His was... Oh yeah. Jalapeno Nacho, Spicy Cajun, and kettle corn. Well, the kettle corn isn't too bad, but there is a one in three chance of reaching in and getting the more safe option. So the odds would be against you to get a safe flavor from the get go."

Staring back at the various colors, Velma had to agree with Shaggy. She might not have chosen well if she had grabbed willy nilly. Though the fact that this store had that much of a random selection, was surprising but very cool. Adding to her curiously to knowing what else was in the other five containers, since each must have had compartments to have three flavors. If Scooby'y bucket was any indication. So that was fifteen different flavors to try! Knowing that Shaggy probably didn't repeat any flavors unless they didn't have enough for all of those combinations. But if they had Cajun and Jalapeno options, they already came up with more stranger selections than she knew off the top of her head for the normal tins that came out during the holidays.

"Wait... how are we going to know which is which once we find out?" Velma pointed out, wanting to know if there was some way to mark the tins as they figured her memory wouldn't be good enough to recall which color went with which, without writing it down somewhere to remember later. Though regretting that she didn't also wander around with a sharpie in her pj's. Just her normal sweater had pockets for random that sort of thing.

"Ah, let's see if I have one..." Reaching up, Shaggy fiddled with the table that sat above them. Velma didn't notice in the candle light, but the table that they were settled under had a small drawer built in. And at the sound of Shaggy's hand rummaging through, it had a few different objects rattling around in it. Which apparently among them was exactly what she had been hoping for. As Shaggy presented to her a sharpie and closed the drawer with his other hand.

"Thank you."

"You have better hand writing then I do. So can you?" Shaggy asked, knowing that his chicken scratch that he called handwriting was nothing compared to Velma's neat writing. Though Daphne had the best looking cursive of them all.

"Sure." Popping the cap off, Velma put her flashlight in her mouth and pulled up the top to put a neat 'Scooby' on top. But she wasn't just satisfied with writing down the flavors without actually figuring out which was which. So she noted them on the top, but moved to solve it once and for all. If not just for her own curiosity.

"Let's see... what would have happened had I gone with my gut." Thrusting her hand into the collection, she grabbed one of the two more orange colored popcorn. Ignoring the more yellow one, since it was a different shade. Popping the kernel into her mouth, she braced for a huge flavor but ended up getting lucky. Munching on what she assumed to be the kettle corn flavor.

"Wow, you got lucky. I figure no face means you got the kettle corn then."

"Yeah. I really thought it was going to be one of the other ones. Phew." Not that she was against hot flavors, but she wasn't as much of a fan compared to Shaggy and Scooby. Have been known to challenge each other to pepper eating contests that usually ended in a draws and stomach aches. So she wasn't really jumping to scarf a whole handful without being prepared for the repercussions.

"So what about the other two?" Shaggy wondered, eager to try them, but not wanting to give in and eat a bunch on Scooby without asking. Holding himself back from reaching in and grabbing some.

"Well, if this orange one is the kettle corn. Though not sure why it's colored like that, but oh well. Then I figure since most nacho cheese is orange in color... That the other orange is Nacho, and the yellow one is the spicy cajin." Velma offered one of each for Shaggy to try, knowing that he would like to eat it, but not over do it. So if she handed it to him, he would have to go through her for more. Or fight her for the container.

"Thanks!" Popping the popcorn one by one, he gave each it's due and savored the favors. Nodding his head, he had to agree with her logic. "Yep. Tastes like Nacho with the one you suspected. And the other is another kind of spicy, but not as cheesy. So I believe you are right! So next container?"

"Whoo! Sure." Feeling the rush of a puzzle solved, she placed the top of the tub with a satisfied tug. Marking off the flavors on the top so they knew what was inside. Marked, then she then put the container to the side. After all, it wasn't hers. And also, not the most appetizing flavor for her even if she wanted to steal a bunch to snack on.

Reaching for the next one, she flipped off the lid and peered in with her flashlight and breathed deeply.

"Oh... Mmmmm... A bunch of odd smells together. And well, hm. It looks like one of the sections is already mixed?" Velma was confused, since it almost looked like there was four flavors in the container. She tilted it slightly to let Shaggy take a look, without spilling or mixing it worse.

"Oh, that has to be either yours, mine or Daph's. They had themed 'mixes' for different locations. Mine is called the New York mix, being white cheddar and caramel. Yours is.. hm. I don't want to ruin it, if you find it. But you have a mix as well. Though the name won't ruin it, so it's called the Brooklyn Mix. And Daph's is the Windy City mix, being classic cheddar and caramel." If she wanted to be all detective about it, he didn't want to spoil it if it was hers.

"Hm. Well thanks. I appreciate that. It looks like this has a brown colored popcorn, a normal looking one... but doens't smell like butter. And the mix is a orange with what looks to be a caramel." Nabbing the little piece, she popped it into her mouth. Confirming her thought. "Yep, caramel."

Taking a piece, she gave it to Shaggy. So it was fair, since she nabbed one herself.

"So, I am thinking that unless my Brooklyn mix has an orange kernel and caramel, then this might be Daphne's." Using what he had said earlier, it definitely wasn't Shaggys. Unless this place randomly made their white cheddar... orange. Which didn't really make sense.

"Your mix doesn't have caramel, so yeah. It sounds like it would be Daphne's. She has..."

"Wait. If there anything in here I would regret trying, like a warning for Scooby's mix?" Velma spoke up before Shaggy told her what the flavors were. Since he now knew what other flavors were contained. Velma wanted to see if she would be able to taste the difference and guess.

"Uh, nope. Daphne's are pretty tasty, but not that weird. Kinda weird, but not weird if you think about it." Shaggy said in his own way. Though it didn't help Velma at all, but she trusted him to not be mischievous in these sorts of instances. He tended to be pretty serious about food.

"Ok, here is goes then. So the mix is caramel and classic Cheddar." Writing on the top of the lid, Velma tossed a cheddar at Shaggy as she popped it into her own mouth. Confirming the taste that she expected and made a note. Now she had a choice. A brown-ish covered popcorn, or a normal looking one that smelled odder. A familiar smell but not one she could place without getting it really close to sniff. Since there was clashing smells hindering her progress. Thinking about it, she went for the normal looking one, but weird smelling. Popping it into her mouth, she gave the proper Shaggy Toll to the man beside her.

"Oh oh... What is... Oh wait. Is this a." Looking at Shaggy, he just grinned at her and waited to come to her own conclusion. "Is this a Ranch flavored popcorn?"

"Yep. Mmm. Pretty good, but kinda weird right." Shaggy said with a nod.

"True... Though I have seen ranch flavored chips. But Ranch ranch is different than like cool ranch from Doritos. And a milder Ranch then like, taking a swig from a bottle of ranch dressing..." She said giving Shaggy a look, having caught the man doing that same very thing some times. Giving a bit of a shiver at the idea, ew.

"Hm. So what is this other one?" Writing on the lid, she then grabbed the last flavor and gave one to Shaggy. Blinking as the taste hit her mouth, vastly different from the one she had just had. But knowing full well why Shaggy had selected it for their resident red head and why the bucket smelled as odd as it had.

"Ok. So Cheddar, Caramel, Ranch and... Chocolate. Right?"

"All right! Nice Velms! Weird one as well, right? But I like' figured Daphne would like some Chocolate and she often has ranch on her salads and with chicken fingers. So I thought she might like that one as well. And then some classic mix to round it out." Shaggy beamed, happy to be spending the time to play guess the food. Always fun, and also put their detective skills to use.

"Ok! Two down, three to go."

Velma was enjoying herself as well. It was fun, and well as tasty. And she would not have really thought about all these kinds of popcorn flavors to exist. So she would look forward to going to the mall and nabbing some more for snacks next time she was out buying things, or kidnapped by Daphne for another clothes shopping run. Knowing the rest of the gang will love getting these as snacks. And growing even more curious to what the pair had selected for her.

Pulling over the next tin, she popped off the top and looked inside. Right away she noted it being another mix. And instantly she got excited. Thinking back to the descriptions Shaggy gave her, his mix was white cheddar and caramel. But this wasn't caramel at all. This was darker and looked similar to the chocolate from Daphne's.

"You found yours, didn't you?" Shaggy chuckled at her reaction, seeing it in her eyes as she looked into the rim of the tall metal container. He knew that 'ah ha' look, and he figured it wouldn't be as much if she had figured out that it was his his of Fred's tin.

"I guess Jinkies are in order?" Velma mused, shooting him a bemused smirk. Pressing her lips together and shaking her head. Making fun of her own catch phrase.

"Well, unless you want to save it for the taste testing." Shaggy snickered, nodding for her to get back to her solving. Eager to snack on some of hers that she would probably share with him as she tested them out.

"Here I go..."
