The Were-Waiter

Summary:

Goofy works the evening shift at the House of Mouse while he's in his werewolf form, but his instincts and increased strength make it a "ruff" night.

Work Text:

*Our story begins on a seemingly peaceful evening at The House Of Mouse, we see Goofy as a werewolf, he’s wearing a new uniform that actually fits his muscular build and looking in the mirror*

 

Goofy: Sure glad Daisy made me a new one.

 

*He hears a knock at the door and Kylie’s voice*

 

Kylie: Goofy? Can I come in?

 

Goofy: Knock yerself out.

 

*We then see Kylie enter the room, she’s in her pretty dress*

 

Kylie: How're you holding up?

 

Goofy: Great! This new tux is all nice and cozy. Daisy’s sewin’ skills are the best.

 

Kylie: Oh, yeah, she’s quite the fashionista. Didn’t she have to stand on a ladder just to get all the measurements?

 

Goofy: Yep. Well, how do I look?

 

*Kylie giggles a bit*

 

Kylie: Amazing as usual, Floppy.

 

*She gives him a kiss on the cheek, his tail wags and he howls in delight, he then puts a hand over his mouth*

 

Goofy: Oh, ‘scuse me.

 

Kylie: You’re excused.

 

*She looks at the clock on the wall, it’s opening time*

 

Kylie: Oh, we’d better get going. I’ll see you when I perform.

 

Goofy: I’m lookin’ forward to that, Biscuit.

 

*With that, he goes into the kitchen, he is then overwhelmed by all the amazing scents due to his enhanced sense of smell, his mouth waters*

 

Goofy: Whoa…it smells even better than usual.

 

*Tiana hands him a plate with a roast chicken on it*

 

Tiana: Take this to Madam Mim, alright?

 

*Goofy just can’t resist, he snaps his jaws on the chicken and gobbles it up in one bite, much to Tiana’s indignation*

 

Tiana: Goofy!!

 

*Goofy belches and shrugs awkwardly*

 

Goofy: Sorry.

 

Tiana: Honestly, I would've expected this from Gus, but you?

 

*Gus Goose looks impressed, he gives Goofy a thumbs-up, Tiana sighs*

 

Tiana: Guess I’ve got to do this all over again. In the meantime, take this to Bambi.

 

*She hands him a plate with a salad on it*

 

Goofy: Got it.

 

*He carries it over to Bambi’s table, he’s sitting with Thumper*

 

Thumper: Wowee! Have you been working out, mister?!

 

Goofy: Ah-hyuck. It’s a long story. Here you g-

 

*He starts to hand it to Bambi, but then his tight grip on the plate causes it to crack apart and Bambi ends up being covered in salad, Thumper bursts out laughing*

 

Goofy: Oh, Gawrsh, I am so sorry!

 

Bambi: It’s alright, at least I got my dinner.

 

*He starts to chew a piece of salad that landed on his head*

 

Bambi: Still good.

 

*Felix the green experiment comes by in a janitor’s outfit and uses his tail to sweep up the shards, Goofy then backs away awkwardly and sees the Big Bad Wolf impatiently drumming his fingers on his table*

 

Goofy: What’ll ya be havin’, sir?

 

The Big Bad Wolf: Took ya long enough. I’ll get a steak and ya better make it snappy or I’ll huff and puff and blow this building down.

 

Goofy: Okay, okay!

 

*He writes this down, the Big Bad Wolf then gets a glimpse of Jessica Rabbit at a nearby table, his eyes pop out and he howls in glee, Goofy then looks skyward and instinctively howls as well*

 

Jessica: ExCUSE me?

 

*Goofy puts his hands over his mouth*

 

Goofy: Sorry, sorry! Big Bad started it!

 

*Jessica turns to the Big Bad Wolf as he whistles at her and cocks a brow*

 

Jessica: You’re not my type. Besides, I’ve already got someone.

 

*She turns to Roger and winks at him, his ears curl into the shape of a heart and he hugs her arm*

 

Goofy: Aww…

 

*A penguin waiter comes to a table where Merlin and Arthur are sitting, he hands them both some soup*

 

Merlin: Looks most delectable.

 

*He takes out his wand and waves it, adding some magic sparkles into the mix*

 

Merlin: For extra flavor.

 

*Goofy lays his eyes on the wand, his eyes widen at the sight of this stick and he dashes towards their table and grabs Merlin’s wand right out of his hand with his teeth*

 

Merlin: What in the world?!

 

*Goofy growls and shakes Merlin’s wand with his teeth; at that moment, a little squirrel climbs onto Yen Sid’s table and squeaks*

 

Yen Sid: How many times must I tell you? I will never turn you into a human and you should move on from Arthur.

 

*The squirrel girl crosses her arms and squeaks in annoyance, Goofy hears this, drops the wand to the floor, and turns his head towards her direction, he then snarls and barks rapidly before charging at her*

 

*The squirrel girl squeals in alarm and skitters away, Goofy chases her on all fours, onlookers stare in shock, besides Merida, who smirks a bit*

 

Merida: I’m not gonna lie, she kinda had that comin’.

 

*The squirrel girl jumps on a table where the sunburned ice cream tourist is about to have an ice cream sundae, just before he takes the first bite, Goofy jumps onto the table, knocking the sundae to the floor, much to the tourist’s disappointment*

 

*Dug just licks it off the floor, Carl cringes in disgust*

 

Carl: Dogs.

 

*Goofy bumps into various tables, knocking drinks and plates on the floor, we see Nani trying to convince Lilo to have a salad*

 

Nani: C’mon, you know vegetables are good for you.

 

Lilo: Yeah, sure, but broccoli’s not my thing.

 

*Goofy comes running by and he bumps into their table, knocking the salad to the floor, Lilo pumps her fist triumphantly*

 

Lilo: Yes!

 

Nani: Hey! Watch where you’re going!

 

Timon: Could somebody control him?!

 

Luisa: On it.

 

*She tosses a chicken bone to Goofy, the latter finally stops in his tracks and jumps up to catch it in his mouth, he gnaws on it, but the squirrel girl is still running away, she leaps onto another table, only to slip on a napkin and fall into Isabela’s soup*

 

Isabela: Seriously?!

 

*The crowd grumbles to themselves, Goofy finally snaps out of it and sees the mess he’s made*

 

Goofy: Oh, gawrsh! I’m real sorry! I just lost it there!

 

*Some of them give him dirty looks, he shrinks into himself in embarrassment*

 

Isabela: What is with you?! Can’t you show any self-control?

 

Merlin: She does raise a good point. I mean, what about my wand?

 

*Goofy whines in shame*

 

Goofy: I didn’t mean to..

 

*Minnie then comes out*

 

Minnie: What’s going on out here?

 

*Goofy is trudging out the door with his head hanging low*

 

Minnie: Goofy, where are you going?

 

*She follows him and finds him sitting outside, sighing in shame*

 

Minnie: Goofy, what's wrong?

 

*Goofy sadly whines as he hides his face in his hands*

 

Goofy: I made an awful mess of things out there, and now, all those customers can’t enjoy their time here. My werewolf side makes my job harder.

 

Minnie: Everyone makes mistakes sometimes, Goofy, but we can learn from them.

 

*He sighs*

 

Goofy: I wish it was easier to get a grip on it.

 

*Minnie sits next to him*

 

Minnie: Oh, Goofy, I’m sure you can control your instincts. You’ve got it in you, I just know it.

 

Goofy: But how, though?

 

Minnie: Well, it’s all about having willpower and knowing there’s a time and place for it. Just tell yourself you’ve got a job to do when you feel it coming on.

 

Goofy: Okay, Minn, I’ll do my best.

 

Minnie: You are one of the best waiters in the business, you know.

 

*Goofy chuckles*

 

Goofy: Aw, Minn.

 

*He gets up, determined*

 

Goofy: I can’t leave all those people hangin’. They need their dinner. I’m on it.

 

*He goes back inside, Minnie looks at him proudly*

 

Minnie: That’s the spirit.

 

*Goofy makes his way to the kitchen, Tiana has another roast chicken*

 

Tiana: Alright, the replacement chicken’s ready. Bring this to Madam Mim, and do NOT eat this again, got it?

 

*Goofy stares at the plate with the delicacy and his mouth waters, he licks his lips and wags his tail, only to remember Minnie’s words, he shakes his head and snaps out of it*

 

Goofy: Guh! Yeah, I got this.

 

*He hands Tiana the order that the Big Bad Wolf previously gave him and goes back to where the patrons are, he comes to Madam Mim’s table and hands her the plate*

 

Goofy: For you, ma’am.

 

Madam Mim: What took you so long?!

 

Goofy: I mean, better late than never, right?

 

Madam Mim: Yeah, whatever!

 

*At a nearby table, Cruella de Vil is showing off a dog whistle to Hades*

 

Cruella: This is my finest plan to steal those puppies yet! When they hear this, they’ll be so incapacitated by the sound that I’ll have plenty of time to take them!

 

*The skeptical Hades cocks a brow*

 

Hades: Do you really think such a simple plan will work just like that?

 

Cruella: Shut up! I’ll show you!

 

*She then blows into the dog whistle, Goofy’s eyes widen and his pupils get bigger, he snarls and clenches his fists*

 

Goofy: That…that sound…!

 

*He snarls, only to realize what he’s doing and covers his ears*

 

Goofy: No…! Don’t give in, ya don’t wanna cause more trouble!

 

*Pongo, Perdita, and some of their puppies clutch their ears in agony*

 

Lucky: Oh my dog…!

 

*The puppies start howling, which only makes it harder for Goofy to contain himself, he covers his mouth with both hands*

 

Goofy: Keep it in! *He says in a muffled voice*

 

*Dumbo notices the ruckus and soars over to Cruella’s table, he snatches the dog whistle right out of her hand with his trunk and flies off*

 

Cruella: Why, you!!

 

*She shakes her fist at him, Hades smirks at her*

 

Hades: See, I told you.

 

*Goofy gives Dumbo a grateful look*

 

Goofy: Thanks, li’l fella.

 

*He then walks up to Mortimer’s table and waves at him cheerfully*

 

Goofy: Howdy! What can I get for ya?

 

*Mortimer looks down and up at the big guy and grins smugly*

 

Mortimer: How about we have a ball?

 

Goofy: What?

 

*Mortimer holds up a ball, Goofy shakes his head*

 

Goofy: N-No! Anythin’ but that!

 

*Mortimer cackles and tosses the ball, Goofy’s eyes light up and he pants while wagging his tail, he’s about to chase it, but then it hits Chernabog in the arm and bounces off harmlessly, Chernabog turns around and growls*

 

Chernabog: Who threw that…? *He says through gritted teeth*

 

*Mortimer gets a frightened look on his face and he chuckles nervously*

 

Mortimer: Um, it wasn’t me, and even if it was, I didn’t do it to get a reaction out of Goofy here!

 

Chernabog: You little fibber.

 

*He then picks up Mortimer and throws him into a wall, Mortimer ends up getting comically flattened from the impact and he slowly falls to the ground, as thin as a piece of paper*

 

Mortimer: Ow.

 

*Goofy sighs in relief*

 

Goofy: Ya really saved my skin there.

 

Chernabog: I suppose so.

 

*At that moment, Mickey comes onto the stage and grabs the microphone*

 

Mickey: Everyone, please welcome Kylie Dear! She’s gonna sing “Can You Feel the Love Tonight?” for all of us!

 

Simba: You hear that, Nala? It’s our song.

 

Nala: Oh, Simba…

 

*Kylie then steps out onto the stage and takes the mic from him*

 

Kylie: Thank you, Mickey.

 

*Goofy watches, enamored*

 

Goofy: Hearin’ her sing never gets old. *He thinks to himself*

 

*Kylie takes a deep breath and begins*

 

Kylie: There’s a calm surrender to the rush of day, when the heat of a rolling wind can be turned away…

 

*Goofy’s tail wags as he listens to the song, he takes a deep breath and sighs*

 

Kylie: An enchanted moment, and it sees me through, It's enough for this restless warrior just to be with you…

 

*Goofy feels the urge to howl along, and after all the things that have tempted him tonight, he can no longer contain himself*

 

Kylie: And can…you feel..the love..tonight?

 

*Goofy takes a deep breath and howls along to it, everyone in the audience turns in his direction, Kylie stops and looks at him* 

 

*Goofy then covers his mouth with his hand and gives an embarrassed smile, but much to his surprise, Kylie smiles at him and gestures for him to come onstage with her, so he does*

 

Kylie: It is where we are…It’s enough for this wide-eyed wanderer that we got this far…

 

*Goofy howls to the tune of the song as his own backup vocals, the rest of the dogs in the House of Mouse begin to howl along as well*

 

Kylie: And can.. you feel.. the love.. tonight? How it’s laid to rest? It’s enough to make kings and vagabonds…believe the very best..

 

*Minnie then kisses Mickey on the cheek*

 

Minnie: They can really carry a tune, can’t they, Cream Cheese?

 

Mickey: Yeah…

 

Goofy: Guess my instincts have their perks too. *He thinks to himself*

 

*Kylie and Goofy continue to sing together and all the couples in the audience hold hands*
