if Heisenberg survived and brought to Blue Umbrella headcanons??

See I was going to write something nice about how blue umbrella helped him and then he had a difficult but still very pleasant life.

But fuck that here's some horror and angst.

warning: very dark content under the cut.

Blue umbrella Karl headcanons

-i think its actually the BSAA who find him shortly after the bomb destroys the megamycte. He's in quite a state, probably missing body parts like an arm or an eye. Hes seriously injured and in need of a hospital, but where can they take him? he might infect a regular hospital. Most of the BSAA staff dont see him as a person, just a BOW so they send him to a blue umbrella lab for treatment.

-Karl is the only survivor of the village and only sample of the unedited mold left in the entire world. he would be IMMENSELY valuable on the black market. Blue umbrella don't do BOW arms dealing like the original umbrella, but they're still glad to be the only ones with a sample. they're going to use him to make themselves a fortune in new medicine or made to order soldiers.

- Chris was correct not to trust Blue umbrella. Ok their goals are far more noble than the original company. they want to use their predecessors experiments, viruses and knowledge to make things better for people. but ultimately they still do experiments that could be considered cruel. they don't test on people anymore but they have no problem testing on BOW's like karl or the other lords. after all, they're not really human anymore so who's going to complain?

-they want the mold from karl, that much is obvious. but i think they'd be interested in having him as an operative, like the BSAA bioweapon soldiers we see at the very end of re8. Maybe they send him into the field but i actually think they might make copies of him, like the tyrant series. Karl is incredibly valuable so i doubt they'd wanna risk losing him, but copies? something they can mass produce? They'd sooner use those than risk real soldiers lives.

- i don't Karl has any say in this. I envision them using something like that P45 device wesker used on jill to control people like karl. He's still aware of whats happening but theres nothing he can do about it .

- He himself doesn't feel indebted to BU in any way, he didn't ask for their help. but they make a point of telling him how they saved him and how he owes them for that. He probably starts off in some sort of quarantine zone while they fix him up but after that i can see them hiding him further and further away in the labs until he's essentially locked in a cage.

-every time he acts up, the leash tightens. Maybe he starts off in a relatively nice room, no freedom but at least comfortable. However, one day he snaps, demanding to be let out or "how much longer are you going to keep me here?" maybe he kills a researcher in self defence. either way, Blue umbrella reveals their true colours, that they never intended to let him go. By the time things calm down again Karl is locked in a tiny room somewhere deep underground with few amenities and even less to entertain himself . they use any excuse to make things miserable for him, like not coming when they call or flinching when they take blood.

-I imagine they like to lock him in a faraday cage to block his electrical abilities from influencing the metal around him. it makes him feel powerless and the lack of connection to his magnetic abilities really disoriented him

- understandably Karl is not too happy about all of this. He's already traumatised by what miranda did to him but to have it done all over again by the people who were meant to be helping him is a step too far. I can absolutely see him going feral and trying to escape, probably killing a lot of researchers in the process.

-So what sort of experiments are they doing on him? i can see them cutting piece off of him to test the molds regen powers, maybe trying to shoot him to see if he can deflect the metal in bullets, maybe replacing parts of him with plastic he cant actually manipulate or metal parts that hurt if he does try to use his powers?

- if you wanna get really fucked up i can absolutely see blue umbrella vivisecting him. The want the cadou to create more soldiers like him and they want to examine his electric organs , which they cant do if he's dead ( no brain activity would mean no electricity). unfortunately because karl is so difficult to kill, he's awake and aware the entire time.

- maybe chris has some suspicious of what BU are doing and decides to check in. He doesn't like Karl or care for him in any way, but he doesn't want another outbreak on his hands or more people like the lords out in the world. I imagine by the time he found Karl, the poor bastard would be too far gone. Either mutilated beyond recognition, Mind warped by the P45 device or driven insane by the torture. I think the kindest thing Chris could do would be to put him out of his misery.

Thanks nonnie. im sad now ;-; i am a terrible person and you are an enabler
