Hm. I just realized I didn’t post this here. Whatever I’m gonna remake it anyway lol

[leconcombrerit]

Be ambitious ! But do so out of her way ! :)

I had this idea in my head and, as much as I haven't been able to draw shit to save my life this past year (or couple years most likely), I couldn't have the world start to think I'm no longer a Lauren enjoyer. Slay queen.

She could've made so much money :(

I'm having so much fun in this style lol

[juneofbones]

Self-made gods as a character device have always been interesting to me, but it's especially so in Lauren Mallard/Mother Lauren's case, in just how much uncertainty there is. When she first started to call herself that, to me, it was an obvious attempt to give herself power, to fix her own narrative, and to lord it over Kevin. But The Smiling God is notorious for giving power and taking away any sense of choice about it. It makes me wonder how much Lauren wanted this, or if her greed for any sort of control over her own life has been the very thing that takes away her autonomy.

girlbossed a bit too close to the sun

wtnv x deltarune crossover :3

that radio desk table is horrendously inaccurate but i didnt wanna look it up & draw it properly ,,,,,,,my b

cecil said mother lauren had "long" eyes so i immediately thought of analog horror eyes. ive always wanted to liquify tool

[vvanillavveins]

A while back- when i said that 'Lauren Mallard is what would happen if you crossed The Spiral with The Hunt'- it was meant as just a fun little crossover hc & i was certainly not expecting episode 248 to make it into a reality with a 15ft tall Lauren declaring herself the "mother of cruelty", chasing down innocent people in the streets and ripping them open with her bare hands just so that she can watch them suffer-

Welcome to Night Vale has been living in my head for basically my entire life (elementary school. Explodes.) anyways I relapsed for the 50th time, heres what the major freaks look like in my brain

Also episode 51 doodle because what the fuck. And Cecil on my microbiology

[kevin--of-desert-bluffs]

OH ALSO I remembered my fave hilarious fact about Lauren's 'co-hosting'. Well, several.

She is not a radio host, that is not her job, she's not been hired to do that, why is she doing that lol

She was hired it seems to gather information on NV and later manage the take over of the radio station, eventually becoming VP of the whole company. She doesn't have anything better to do than muscle in on Kevin's work?

She's not even in the same booth as him. He mentions at one point she's in the producers booth with Daniel. She's just joining in for fun/to annoy Kevin lol

If I had a nickel for everytime a man was a devoted follower of a god with a never ending appetite, only for that god to ultimately choose their enemy over them, I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice.

[vintagecandy]

Can we get a drawing of lauren doing some Strex Girlbossing?

Another ask also wanted to see her in "casual clothes" but I totally remembered it as "pajamas" for some reason lol, though-- I feel Lauren's most comfortable outfit is at best a blouse and khakis until she finally sleeps, so this kind of tracks.

[smilingsynernist]

This time, I tried a retro style C:

[agnes-come-back-challenge]

ok but episode 43 "Visitor" is like. actually kinda scary

Not in a "omg that creature was sooo creepy" kinda way maybe, but Strexcorp literally. Left a violently programmed artifical creature in his booth. With the intention of scaring him into obedience

Like. They maimed his cat to try to get him to stop being so into having rights. That was clearly sending a message that they were willing to hurt his loved ones. And doesn't Lauren start asking about Janice and Carlos a few episodes later?

Jesus, that must've been terrifying. Can you imagine having your employer almost kill your cat and then start threatening your niece and boyfriend?

No wonder they were able to break Kevin so thoroughly. It's honestly surprising Cecil managed to avoid that

[juneofbones]

Cecil's genuine fear at his voice being taken really hit me. Cecil's voice is his weapon, his only weapon, really, and while it's been coopted before, it's never happened quite like this. It doesn't even seem like he recognizes Lauren, not really. Not when it's just him in his mind. It's freaky, and this episode was really effective in setting up crazy suspense for this whole arc.
