Gawain Project: Brothers & Sisters, 31-33

[sigune]

Today is a lovely day, so I have been lazy. I have worked pretty hard last week, so I intend to be lazy all weekend. Mwuahahaha! If I say "lazy", I mean that I hope to get some Gawain-related stuff done. I was so tired last week due to lack of sleep that I didn't have the energy to draw new layouts on the train; that means I'm behind. Need to remedy. I have also bought an A4-sized watercolour Moleskine that I intend specifically for character designs. If all goes well, I'll fix Uther's design for SoK on Sunday. Then maybe I can finally get a move on with my SoK pages. *rolls eyes at self*

Well, on to the new pages. You will be meeting Gawain's entire family in the next few instalments, simply because it's important that you know them :-). But don't worry, I'll be getting to the point. Eeventually ;P.

Concrit = welcome, as always.

What went before
The kings of Britain are meeting in King Lot's stronghold. Uriens of Gorre is one of them, and he has brought a little boy with him in whom Morgana shows an interest...

Thank you for teaching me this new homosocial category of bromance (I did check it on wikipedia, because I'd never heard of it). And sorry if I sounded audacious - I meant a slash happening in the future, in any case, not at the present moment (it's true that deviantArt accused me of underage nudity, but I'm not that deviant :P).

I don't know anything about Owain's character, so I'm ready to be surprised by whatever happens with him...

You don't know Owain? He's the same character as Yvain.

If the name hadn't already been taken, I could have called my comic "Family Man". Gawain is very fond of and very protective of his family. If you see Gawain/Owain slash potential (mind you, Gauvain/Yvain is my Kaamelott ship, if only for fun), then I predict that you're also going to detect Gawain/Gaheris, Gawain/Agravain and Gawain/Arthur in the future :P.

Okay, it's official: my memory does more that waver. It has holes.
I didn't remember Owain was Morgana's son. I actually forgot she was given in marriage to Uriens. But things seem a little complicated, aren't they? Uriens and Morgana's must not have been a happy union. How could she return to the convent? Are they "divorced", somehow?

I've already told you I'm not that expert in Arthuriana ;) I know only little about Ywain, and I hadn't spotted his name behind "Owain". He's called Ivano in Italian.

I know :-). Thing is, Owain is his original name - "Yvain" is the French version that stuck because Malory copied it from his French sources.

I don't think the Morgana/Uriens thing is complicated. But you'll have to be patient a while longer - I've barely started teling my story! :-)
