Scooby-Doo and the Ghoul School follows Shaggy, Scooby, and Scrappy as they answer a job posting for a new P.E. teacher at Miss Grimwood’s Finishing School for Girls. Once they arrive, they find that it is inhabited by the daughters of famous monsters—and under threat by the evil Revolta.
This is without a doubt my absolute favorite of any Scooby-Doo special. Someone was definitely taking notes from this film when they got around to creating Monster High, because that’s how this movie functioned for me when I was a kid. Monster girls! Everything I wanted to be! In case you were wondering, Phantasma was my favorite.
They start the day slowly, limbs fumbling in the dark as Makoto reaches to turn off his alarm. Sousuke squints into the lamplight until he can make out makoto’s face, sees green eyes meet his as a warm hand smooths over his hair, “Good morning Sousuke.”
Makoto’s voice is rough with sleep as he lifts himself up from their bed, covers pooling at his waist. Sousuke chuckles, “It would be a better morning if you hadn’t set a 7 am alarm on a Sunday.” Makoto’s hand stills in his hair as he looks away, cheeks flushing “ I didn’t mean to leave the alarm on…”
Sousuke sits up to pull Makoto into his side; leeching some of his warmth, grin spreading across his face “Yet you still do such a good job taking care of me. Now, if you have nowhere else to be, come back to bed” the last part is whispered against Makoto’s neck, Sousuke chuckling at the small shiver that runs up Makoto’s spine.
His grin widens when Makoto reaches to turn the lamp off before leaning into his side, kissing his jaw softly, and pressing him back into bed. “I love you” and it’s so soft Sousuke almost doesn’t hear it, but he does feel Makoto’s face burn against his shoulder feels his own face heat in return. He wraps the blankets back around them, “I love you too.”
I know it’s always super cute to imagine Makoto being pampered by sousuke because he never seems to catch a break but consider: Makoto pampering sousuke.
