Our protagonist has a bugged natural evasion stat and can't help himself. Even helpful/friendly acts have a chance of missing when targeting him.

What's the over/under on that not being the initial Ink Witch and some other lady.

Personally I think another issue is that Mookie seems to think anything a woman wears should wrap-cling to her chest, even if it otherwise looks like a loose and flowing dress or robe. If DD's 2012/2013 art can be taken as examples, then it happens to pretty much every woman to varying degrees, which... is actually kinda worse than it being just Ink Witch. Snout's pants also look painted on at the crotch in some scenes, to say nothing of the problems with putting the waistline below his tail. So, I feel that at least some of this is just plain not knowing how to draw clothing without making it look uncomfortably tight.

That's not to say Ink Witch hasn't been singled out to be sexualized, because none of that explains her ink dress disintegrating for no apparent reason while she was taken by the ship. As an aside, while looking through the early comics to make sure I didn't misremember, there's a panel of the ship communicating with what looks like the same ink-on-ground messages she used with Snout. So I'm starting to think that really was her ship, though why it would call her "The Ink Witch" instead of her proper name or title is a puzzle with a dumb answer.

Was this the first human face we've seen totally unobscured in The Legacy? This is, uh. One hell of a first impression. At least Snout has the appropriate reaction.

Again, because all of Mookie's characters can read his mind, so the first thing Snout thought of to call her was actually her accurate, correct name.

Alternatively, as I've suggested before, he hasn't come up with one yet, and as soon as her real name is revealed everyone will know it from that point on.

Could be, but when Snout asked the pagefinder (who was really the Ink Witch) if the Ink Witch sent it, she responds as if that's the correct term/name immediately. And Mookie has only ever referred to her as that. I think it's her exact name, and Snout guessed it right away after only having met her, and she hasn't corrected him yet.

Well and right before that moment the pagefinder called them “The ink witch’s pages” without even knowing that’s what Snout calls her too.

Weird how he went for a super conservative neckline (like that's what you give pyjama shirts/nighties) but then went out of his way to vacuumseal her into the dress anyway.

Like a lot of the anime he no doubt grew up with and still does watch, Mookie has a huge Madonna/Whore complex. Despite the obvious fact he likes huge honkers - and I mean hey that’s fine, so do I - he also clearly only really likes sexualizing - at least overtly - villains. Rachel and that one of Dominic’s students were the only non-villainous names characters I can think of in Deegan who were both busty and wore revealing outfits. And in the case of the latter, she was generally shamed for it. In general, in fact, big boobs were the subject of jokes in Deegan, often at the expense of the woman who had them. Mookie likes breaking out the ‘back pain’ ‘joke’ almost as much as he liked drawing big boobs in the first place.

So yeah, he’s clearly horny as hell for NotBayonetta, but I would be surprised if she is ever overtly actively sexual. That’s bad for pure waifus. Any fan service will likely be as it has been, and/or with her being nearly raped or having her clothes blasted off by attacks or otherwise being unwillingly sexualized.

In the comic, anyway. He's been drawing borderline-porn of her for his patreon subscribers for a while.

While he's been chaste with her in the comic so far, I don't think he can resist now that she's finally actually in the comic in person, whatever the excuse for it.

He did say he wants to indulge in "tasteful nudity" or whatever the reason was that made him bless us with snoutdick every dozen pages or so.

Would it have been so hard to show her body dynamically making the same arc as the ink, giving the brush some mass and her a more interesting pose? She's just standing there with an arm up like she's not hauling a giant hunk of wood around, that's boring.

She uhhhhhh *shuffles papers hurriedly* read his diary using her ink magic, and that's how she found out both that he calls her the Ink Witch and that his name is Snout, because he literally wrote "Snout's Diary" on the front cover (despite no indication he lives with anyone or has any other need to label a familiar book like that).

That last part isn't made up, so I could see diary-reading being the reason she's able to conveniently know so much about him and his motivations. Honestly, if the Ink Witch turned out to be a villain manipulating Snout by reading his private thoughts and giving him exactly the leads he wants, it would be a pleasant surprise... aside from the part where it would be telegraphed way too soon, considering it was an ink ship that blew his house up.

This is the way Mookie will shoehorn nudity into this comic. The more she talks in this dialogue-free comic, the smaller her dress will get until Mookie gets to draw her gooch.
