About Bloody Mary... (Spoiler)
Anybody else thinking it was just another fake one and the real one just wanted a distraction to get away?

Yeah, with the strange physiology they give us with Fables (also with some spoilers concerning the main series), death is about as meaningful as it is in Dragonball Z or Sailor Moon.

Actually that's not the case in Fables unless thrown down the Witching Well they can't recover from an actual death a mortall injury they can.

Good GOD I hope she's dead. I hated Bloody Mary FRICKING SUE the moment she showed up in the game.

True, but we don't "know" this "yet"- so if I were Bigby, wouldn't I take a huge chunk of Mary and throw her down the witching well? Actually, the same with anyone. If he'd killed one of the Tweedles beforehand, wouldn't he have stuffed him down the well as... well?

I never even entertained the possibility that I had killed the real one.

They don't have the chance to do so at the time as Bigby is seriously injured. In part one of the likely reasons they throw bodies down the well is to get rid of bodies of Fables that don't look human and the Tweedle is just the dead body of a fat person.

But the thing is, location glamours aren't everywhere, so a mundy's senses work perfectly well. So you're a steelworker, and you see a bunch of blood and person-shaped glass everywhere, what's your natural conclusion? Now pile on an entire workforce of mundy's, and even if there was a perception filter over it, it'd be shorted out.

Yes, but the steel mill was clearly owned by The Crooked Man.

I'm sure Bloody Mary is dead. She doesn't strike me as the "fake my own death to escape death" type of gal. She's more of the "I'll kill you slowly while laughing all the way, and if I die oh well" type of loonatic. She wouldn't stand for Bigby or anybody getting the better of her.

Also, she isn't in the comics so she's most definitely dead. I just wish Telltale gave us the choice of how to off her. I wanted to toss her into the motlen metal and watch her melt ala the T-1000.

I was expecting to either give her a slow agonizing death by ripping her to shreads . Instead of just bursting into shards. I know her being Bloody Mary and the mirror thing and all.. But still.

Yes, but the steel mill was clearly owned by The Crooked Man.

It was occupied by the Crooked Man- he clearly lived in the shadows, and didn't really like to own places as much as owning people- any place his organization occupied served a purpose, but it was alwasy owned by either Fables or mundies. Fables, who would want to throw her down the witching well, and mundies which would bring attention to it- causing the Fables to want to hide her in the witching well (or at least in what I'm calling the vast office- The Woodland 's TARDIS).

No, but she strikes me like a female Xanatos- someone that plans for their own death.

She's coming back for the sequel. I guarantee it.

Sorry, but she doesn't strike me as the mastermind-type AT ALL. She's a brute, pure and simple. She's in it for the blood and she enjoys killing, it even says so on her bio. She's a psychopath through and through, and wouldn't care one bit if she died. Just so long as she gets her kicks in and has her fun.

Mos likely it was owned by a front for The Crooked Man but clearly in use by him as his wheel is there and where the bullets were smeleted and cast.

The Tweedles were brutes- Mary was smart. She goes into battle with Bigby prepared (unknown why she tries to use her true form instead of, y'know, using the silver bullet again). She's given autonomy by the Crooked Man purely due to her cunning. If not a Moriarty, she's still very much akin to... oh what was his name... *looks it up* Sebastian Moran. Second-in-command, but very much in that title due to being resourceful and intelligent.

True, it was in use, but you have to factor in that if there was an operation like that, a perception filter was necessary. er... glamour. A glamour was necessary.
