The Legacy of Dominic Deegan will be that he still has unfinished business; his legacy is that someone must get in contact with Mosly, who has become a Lich while waiting for a response from his good friend Dominic, and let him know what has become of his friend.

Folks predicted she'd ask Snout to help her pick a name, but I don't think anyone predicted it'd be on the very next page.

She's a corpse bride learning language from books and doesn't have a name.

I mean, okay i guess but other than being kinda undead she doesnt really share any similarities with the frankenstein monster. They're not even the same kind of undead, and the monster didnt get better, he just became a very clever plotter in his quest for revenge. The connection is tenuous at best.

I'm not sure it's a good idea to ask someone who presumably named himself "Snout" for creative naming ideas, he's probably going to pick Dominique Treegan.

She may be stronger, smarter and more capable than Snout but she’ll always become meek and submissive in his presence. It is the Deegan Way.

Hey Mookie, since you're reading this thread, when we complained Corpsemom didn't have a name, we didn't mean put the plot on pause to have a storyline where she picks a name.

Also, on digesting it a bit more: what the hell? It wasn’t enough to just tinge their memories of Siegfried greatly enough to disrupt his hold on them, they have to explicitly learn to hate him, too? That’s straight up cultlike.

Wasn't the dude Snout rescued from the cabin the soul inhabiting her body? That could raise questions of if corpsewifemom even sees herself as a woman but you know I think I'm good with Mookie not trying to write a character struggling with gender identity.

Roman Reigns posted:

But then Snout will pout and go outside and look up at the stars and be sad that she wouldn't let him control her life help her.

I joked before that Snout wouldn't have enough agency to pick her name but it figures this is how it would turn out, with Snout choosing her name and her fawning over him for being so nice.

If there is any question of gender identity, I figure that they’d just wind up going with an androgynous name

Presumably the Monglelfolk who was used to make her did have a name, but Vine-Crazy Cabin Guy either never learned it, or didn't write it down on the pages we were shown. He's only referred to as "A kindly Mongrelfolk" or "My friend"

Vine-Crazy Cabin Guy also didn't write down his own name on the pages we were shown.

Oh boy. The generous reading would be that Corpsey is asking Snout for input but is still mostly in control of her own decisions, and is only asking Snout because the narrative is limited to his POV and most concepts in Legacy are communicated by books/writings. edit: Which, to be clear, is itself an issue because that leads to massive infodumps and Snout writing recap pages. It's just that I'm not unsurprised that Mookie decided to show that she's looking for a name by having Snout read with her.

Now that he is involved though it's very possible that he'll take control and point out something that is so perfect that she'll immediately accept it as her name without even thinking on it for a couple days to get a feel for it. God, I just imagined that Luna or variants of it might have become a popular Maltak name and that Snout might suggest that because he saw it in a book earlier.

Still overwhelmed that Mookie decided to have a main character who was black but then also decided to make it a character like Corpsewifemom.

Also it just occurred to me that if Snout has been mute and deaf since birth he wouldn't really know how any of these names are pronounced. This is basically a neutral observation but it's something that would be interesting to hear about from a deaf person's perspective. Not that we'll get that in this story.

Rotten Red Rod
Mar 5, 2002

We don't know why or how long Snout has been deaf and mute. We don't know why he was a hermit, or why he didn't know about the existence of Mongreltown, despite living relatively close to it and being excited about discovering its existence. We don't know if he's ever had any contact with any people other than that little library dude, or how he learned to read and write. As far as the comic cares, he popped into existence on page 1 of the comic fully formed.

She's gonna immediately accept it and turn to Snout and thankingly smile at him with bedroom eyes.

While there's lots of problematic issues around the topic of her having or not having a name, I think it's also worth noting; in-universe, why does she want or need a name? The only other woman she's met and had meaningful interactions with is someone who comes from a culture that doesn't place much value on names and seems to only really use descriptive titles. Wouldn't it make more sense - and arguably kill two birds with one stone by trying to justify the Ink Witch not having a name as a deliberate choice - by having Corpsewifemomdaughter decide - decide herself that is - to emulate the Ink Witch and choose a name for herself that's descriptive rather than a traditional name? Vine or Ivy or or something.

maybe i missed it, but how do all of the werewolves know about jayden cheating on milov? did milov learn about it and then immediately tell everyone?

also wow, what more can i say about this chapter that hasnt already been said? i assumed that royal knights all have blood on their hands anyway, and siggy was openly racist so i don't know why a lynching is what finally turned everyone against him. also, not to devils advocate fictional child murder, but that was like.. when he was a kid, right? no benefit of the doubt for their friend? like maybe something about how being raised by a psychopath can result in some hosed up scenarios to win approval? everyone is okay with stonewater raping melna but killing a kid about the same age is too far??
