Murder on the Gardenview Express Masterpost

[Note: This blog is a heavy W.I.P. This post will be updated with each new lore-relevant piece of information we put out.]

Welcome to the Murder on the Gardenview Express AU, a blog and AU made by deepfriedsg and foxithefennecfox! We are the only two moderators of this blog, and unfortunately not too active on Tumblr, and so if there are bouts of inactivity that’s the reason behind it.

Mod Star: He/they, probably will be more active. Big fan of answering asks but less of a fan of actually checking inbox <\3 Favourite MGVE character is Vee!! I’m the one who does the majority of the writing/loreposts! (<- shoot me a lore-related question and i Will yap to my heart's content!!)

Mod Foxi: She/they, less active... oopsie. I'm also a big fan of answering asks! Ask Me. I really like yaoi by the way. Did you know me and star started this au because of shelly and vee dw modded skins? Yeah. Which also meaaans.... this au is centered on Shellevision. Smh... yaoi better. (joke) I'll be the one that posts more doodles/drawings!!! Oh and did you know i'm egyptian? Cool, right!!!! Ok bye i yap too much. OH OH RIGHT MY FAVOURITE MGVE CHARACTERS ARE DYLE DANDY AND SPROUT

DISCLAIMER: Shellevision (Shelly x Vee) is the only canon ship in this AU. All others are up for interpretation. You will see a lot of ship content on this blog for no reason other than the mods being fans of the ships — that does not make them canon in any way, shape or form!

What year in the 30s is it to be precise? Is it the same as the film it's inspired by?

The film it's inspired by doesn't have an exact date to our knowledge, so we set the AU's date to be 1934 since that's the publication date of the original book. (Historical inaccuracies are just cause we're stupid we try to research these things we swear)

SUCH A PEAK AU

How popular IS the Gardenview company in this AU to be precise?

Thank you!!

The company is very popular! Tickets for their trains would be quite expensive and it'd be considered a privilege to get a ticket, with how high-quality and luxurious they try to make their experience. If you want to go somewhere, they'd be first pick, but only if you have enough money with how expensive their trips and tickets are.

Character Designs #3: Vee

Sorry for the recent inactivity! Mod Foxi had something going on that prevented her from working on Astro's reference. I finished Vee's and posted it for a filler while Astro gets finished up! (also this art is decently old, I procrastinated on posting it for a while so expect some changes in artstyle next time I draw a ref and post it) - Mod Star
