TMAGP 15 SPOILERS UNDER THE CUT

So I drew Lady Mowbray to try to deley art block...

Holy crap, her character is so fun. I definitely want to see more of her in the future! :3

She was very fun design as well. Her outfit is based off of old British hunting outfits that I saw on Google, her gun is based off a rifle, and her dogs are based off of my dog for proportions (she is a lab mix) and a cat hunting pose from Google.

HCs for the dogs:

* She has a ton of dogs, but these two are the oldest and her favorites, so they go everywhere with her.

* When they are not hunting, the dogs play with each other and her household staff

* I've been calling these two dogos Phobos (left dog, greek god of fear and panic) and Artemis (right dog, greek goddess of the hunt)

If not friend, then why friend-shaped? ( I love dogs, lol)

Lady Mowbray HCs:

* She is serves a few fears: the Hunt (she hunts people, like Daisy, and her tatics remind me of the Murder Club TMA episode), the Web (forcing people to hunt eachother, very manipulative setup for the most recent case), and the Slaughter (commits mass violence). She may also serve the Flesh since it's implied that she eats her kill, but I'm not entirely sure on that one.

* Her family is more like the Fairchilds that the Lukass: while she does value blood as a bond, she also adopts a lot of people into her family that have the same goals/serve the same entities. I feel like her family would be sorta like a pack of wolves in terms of how they function.

(Note for time: usually, I take breaks and split up the stages (sketch, lineart, base colors, shading, background, final touches) but for this one, I hyperfixated, so it was me working 6hrs straight 😅)

If by this point you don't believe Celia is the same TMA universe Celia her meeting with Lady Mowbray cemented she is, because that was the most "seasoned Magnus Achives character meets an avatar" interaction we've had in a while:

ask her if you can do something for her just to make sure she scrams

don't give your name when trying to be tricked into saying it

ignore her creepy sniffing and vauge remarks

don't interact needlessly

don't play into her narrative

don't get caught on the stupid pun at the end

Godspeed Celia, you beautiful creature, if anybody is equipped to live till the end it's you.

A thought about Gwen: She was so fucking horrified at Mister Bonzo and obviously shaken to her core at having aided in his murderous rampage just a few episodes ago, but this week? Lady Mowbray forces people to hunt each other for sport and then eats them and Gwen? All polite conversation and chatting about family connections. Why? Bc that bitch is a Bouchard and this is whom she grew up around. Yeah Lady Mowbray murders people but she's classy about it.

My point? Mister Bonzo is a working class horrible monstrosity hero

[lostwords-found]

Oh shit. I just looked up the beer, Doom Bar, that Luke orders for him and Alice at the end of ep 15. Fun fact, turns out it's named for a treacherous sandbar that has wrecked hundreds of ships...

Ships that were sailing into Padstow. Where episode 11 was set.

With the repeated emphasis on food and drink in Protocol, there's no way that one's a coincidence. Luke Dyer--whether or not you know it yet, you are in it, lad. You are in it much, much too deep.

[momokarp]

Wowee I have a lot of feelings about Well Run 😳

[brettanomycroft]

"hostile work environment" is just about the funniest CW a person could put on an episode about a man who is forced to hunt down his own staff and then prepare them as a meal like "yeah the vibes at work today were rancid"

[clairebearsparkles]

I hope she bites me oh my god /asexual

Listen I loved Needles, but a little pathetic man can only get you so far. Plus Lady Mowbray has dogs so like it’s a win all around

[hawstar]

my contribution to the “something is up with luke dyer and his water association” theory is the fact that he plays the bass. he plays the Bass. fish pun.

[shootingstars-or-airplanes]

Can't get over the capitalism metaphor that is a bunch of rich assholes hiring working class people under the assumption they are to serve them and then turning around and making them kill each other for sport and entertainment in order to get paid before ultimately killing off the sole survivor themself.

[statementlives]

yes yes jumpscares are cliché. but lady mowbray abruptly appearing and finishing celia's sentence as if having emerged from the case audio itself was. effectively scary, actually.

[sapphirenightshade]

THIS!!!

Celia: I’ve already had my name stolen once by the hand of one monster, I’m not about to hand it to another on a silver platter, thank you very much.

[vickozone]

And this time, I understood.

hey um… what the fuck was that?

[lostwords-found]

So Luke is in one band named "Dredgerman" and another named "Penny for the Well." One hauling things up from the deep, and another casting down small offerings into the deep in exchange for a wish or good luck. And it sure seems to be working, with packed houses and extra tour stops. Awesome! All the bargains we've heard made on this show have worked out SO WELL.

And then of course, immediately after attending Luke's most recent...offering?... Alice lands something hauled up from some kind of deep. 🤔

Or two somethings, given the tape recorder. Maybe throwing them back will work, Alice. Maybe it'll be fine.
