For the sake of my sanity, I'm going with this being a fake out and she's actually fishing.

But Snout doesn't eat fish so maybe she's going to offer him some tasty veggies!

He's going to almost be sexually assaulted, but his "friends" show up and save the day. After discovering the chandak is a bad guy, sad orc and corpsemom will realize they shouldn't worry about what a bad guy tells them. Ink Witch will hug Snout and apologize for everyone being so down. Snout's gross loving tail will wag.

That sounds the most likely. The first woman to overtly proposition Snout for sex instead of just cuddling being evil? Sounds right for Mookie!

The way Snout is slack-jawed in response to literally any stimuli can't help but remind me of a bit from TV Funhouse, "The Baby, the Immigrant, and the Guy on Mushrooms"

Now With Fresh Citrus Scent!
Most of the journal writing oddness could even have been resolved by the simple expedient of establishing right at the start that any text narration is from Snout writing a book about his adventure to find the legacy (I use adventure in the loosest possible sense here). Bam, solves like 95% of the situations where it makes no sense for him to be writing about a thing. The other 5% would only need to be written slightly different to fix them as well. All the internally consistent narration you could want while still technically being dialogue free. You could even use it to have Snout write about character motivations during a sequence, since he could be writing post factually.

This would require a non zero degree of planning, so it obviously was never an option. Can't discuss character motivations when you haven't bothered figuring them out yourself!


I think that might be one of the big differences between this and OG Deegan actually. He still clearly made everything up on the fly, but did have would could charitably be called plot. I think it's because Dominic gives him a literal narrative crutch. Your main character is a powerful seer, so you give him a scary vision that sounds cool to you at the time. Then you more or less have to sort that storyline out, at least sometimes. This at least gives you something to work with to force forward momentum in your storylines, plus gives you convenient deus ex machina. Legacy doesn't have any of that, so we're all just floating aimlessly as Mookie flails around.

I would honestly prefer that the next page be consensual sex between a gross nincompoop and a horrible lake hag than yet other story where all the women are sexualized in some way but the overtly sexual ones are mocked or evil.

Especially since Mookies' idea of pure and wholesome is creepy uninvited night time cuddling.

I can't imagine Snout agreeing to consensual sex because he's shown like, zero interest in it. Even cuddling with naked women he's seemed more annoyed at them for flopping on him than anything else. He acts so childlike that any sort of sex act will just seem super gross and non consensual because he's been written like a child who doesn't even know what it is.

I think the most likely outcome is Snout refusing and the chandak going "you passed my secret test, you truly are kind, have this plot coupon" because it would be most in line with what Snout's character is stated to be. Luckily in Legacy, what is stated and what actually happens is often in contradiction, so just about anything is possible now!

I mean, are we really 'loving it up?' We're making it more accurate, it anything. Like, let's be real; I would bet money that this thread is easily the largest single collection of Dominic Deegan/Legacy readers on the internet today, and I'd probably venture a guess that while it's not true of the original comic, that when it comes to Legacy we probably form, if not a majority, at least a plurality of the readers. Certainly those that engage and care about the comic.

As the old threads always said; it's us. We're the Dominic Deegan fans.
