[devilmaywrite]

Chris Redfield, Jake Muller, Carlos Oliviera and Piers Nivans with a shy S/O with little to no experience in romantic relationships headcannon. Reader doesn't have much age difference with the guys. Help a thirsty bitch here.

i've yet to write for resident evil and i haven't played the games in a while so if this is ooc, no it isn't <3 rbs/feedback much appreciated

Jake:

He's never really been in a relationship either. Anything in that realm has likely been kept brief and physical. So he's a little lost when he realizes he has feelings for you. But he's not entirely against pursuing you, it'll just take him a bit to work up the courage.

LOVES that you're shy because it's that much funnier to fuck with you, which he's constantly doing. He loves to tease you, poke at you, mess with your hair, etc etc. But it's all in good fun; he just likes to see you get worked up or flustered.

He's smug and it can seem like he's had years of experience because of his confidence but you'll see him stumble here and there. But he's quick to pick himself back up, most of the time anyway.

He does find some comfort in the fact that you've had little romantic experience. It makes him feel less like a fish out of water. But he'll tease you for this too because it's in his nature.

Dates with Jake are usually low-key and low-budget, not that he’s really in a bad way financially, he just prefers this over more extravagant things since that’s not really his scene. He isn’t much of a romantic though that’s not to say he isn’t loving, in his own way.

Jake is young but still immature for his age. Probably due to the shitstorm that has been his life, as he'd probably put it. So this does pose some issues that you'll have to figure out together but Jake is resistant in admitting the fact that he has flaws he needs to work on. 

He’s also not great in the emotional support aspect at first. It’s not that he doesn’t care, it’s just that he doesn’t really know how to comfort you. On the flip side, he has a hard time coming to you with struggles of his own since he’s used to handling things on his own. So lack of communication and emotional availability are going to be common issues early on in your relationship. 

Chris: 

He's married to the job so he honestly hasn't had too much experience in the realm of romance.

He doesn't have that big of an issue with expressing this though. He figures it's best to at least be semi-transparent about it. So he's willing to try and figure it out with you! He's honestly a little relieved that you're nearly in the same boat as him.

Since you're shy, he tries to take the lead and is pretty successful. He's kind and a gentlemen (or least, he tries to be) and probably quite traditional in this aspect so expect flowers, dinner dates -- the whole nine yards. But with time, he’ll find that he prefers to just have nice date nights at home. He likes the domesticity. 

Once settled in a relationship, it's likely that you're not going to see him often. Since, like I said, he's married to the job and likely not willing to retire any time soon. 

He has a whole plethora of issues (alcoholism at some points, betrayals, his life basically being a horror movie, etc) and this can often cause a lot of problems within your relationship that he's not quite sure how to handle it since he's had little experience so this is something that you'll, again, have to figure out together. Not that he’s asking you to fix him but your support and patience is much appreciated.

He is much better with communication than Jake is but not perfect by any means. He also struggles with coming to you for emotional support at first. But he overcomes this as he gets more comfortable with you. He’s a little more apt to get physical when you need comfort; he usually just defaults to bear hugs since he’s not always the best with words. 

Carlos:

Probably has the most experience out of the 4. Nothing too long term but enough to be confident in this aspect. So he’s happy to take the lead and help you figure things out. 

Finds your shyness rather endearing and will tease you about it as well, lovingly of course. But he does try to encourage you to come out of your shell. He’s never aggressive or pushy about it though, he’ll go at your pace.

He does encourage you to be vocal about your wants and needs if that’s something you struggle with since he’s not a mind-reader, and the absolute last thing he wants to do is overstep a boundary and/or make you uncomfortable. 

Carlos is a romantic at heart and he’s a big goof, so expect some cringe-worthy but endearing jokes and pick-up lines. Dates with him are never too extravagant since that’s not really his thing either but they’re intimate and well thought out. Most of the time anyway. He also counts ordering in and watching shitty action movies a date. 

He’s more emotionally available than the two mentioned above but he’s obviously not without his flaws. He’s been through a lot and he’s trying to work through it so your support is appreciated. He’s much more communicative as well and wants there to be a mutual support system, so he’s more inclined to be vulnerable with you and he wants you to do the same. 

Piers: 

Another one that’s married to the job. He’s never had much of a chance to really explore romantically since he’s always put most of his focus into either the military or the BSAA. He’s just never really had time for it but then he met you. So he made time. 

Piers is a little shy about this himself due to his inexperience but he tries his best to open and honest about his intentions with you. Which are, of course, nothing but the best. 

He also finds your shyness endearing and will tease you about it here and there but he isn’t too mean. But he’s also extra protective of you because of it. Like Carlos, he’ll encourage you to come out of your shell and to communicate with him if that’s something you struggle with. He’d hate to accidentally make you uncomfortable. 

Also a communication king. He’s straightforward and level-headed so there’s not much that you can’t just talk out with him. 

Piers is a little on the cheesier side, much to your surprise. But he’s a sweetheart. He’s more inclined to take you simpler dates, maybe to a more secluded restaurant or café. You’ll likely end up finding a special spot that is often the default for the two of you. Though he’ll spice it up here and there.

A Single Moment

Pairing: Carlos Oliviera x Reader

Warnings: fluff, humor

Summary: After surviving the nightmare that is Raccoon City and a missile bombing, you and the shaggy haired mercenary share a moment...to the exasperation of Jill.

A/N: A little gift for @inafieldofdaisies for the Resident Evil Gift Exchange Event hosted by @sstewyhosseini​​! Did dusting off the cobwebs to write sound daunting? Ended up being a short drabble than a full length one shot with how many times I edited and deleted parts. I hope you enjoy it!

     “You know Carlos, I owe you one.” The shaggy haired mercenary gave out a laugh as he continued piloting the helicopter. ‘Yeah, I’ve been hearing that all day, but you have yet to deliver.” Jill rolls her eyes with a smile, clutching the vial in her hands. “You too, Jill. I wouldn’t have survived if it hadn’t been for you two.”

     “And I would be dead too if you and Carlos hadn’t risked your lives to cure me. So that makes us even.” Jill smile at you before she turns to watch the sunset. You’re interrupted by Carlos clearing his throat. “You might be even with Jill, but I don’t recall you saving me, so I’ll take that as an I.O.U.” Moving so you sat next time him in front of the helicopter, you turned to look at him. “I’m not sure owing you anything is such a good idea anymore.”

     “Oh, come on sweetheart, owing me isn’t so bad.” You crossed your arms, giving him a questioning look. He let out another laugh. “Alright when I come to cash on that I.O.U I promise not to make you do anything too embarrassing.” Shaking your head, you looked out the window, trying to stay in this moment and not linger on the destruction behind you.

     Thinking about the events the last couple of days, you realize that life’s too short and anything can happen...even a zombie apocalypse brought upon a simple pharmaceutical company. Staring out to the distance, you weren’t sure what surviving...choosing this path would lead you. You were just lucky to come across Carlos and an unconscious Jill after a couple days of terror. “You know, I’m glad to have come across you Carlos, even if you tend to get annoying sometimes.” That one drew another laugh from him.

     “Yeah me too. Would be pretty cruel of me to leave you in a Carlos-less world.” Jill snaps from the back. “Stop using that line! It’s getting old Carlos.” Carlos shouts back, “I will as long as it remains true!” Shaking your head and giving into your impulse, you raised your hand to take one of Carlos’ hands into yours. He threads his hand with yours, squeezing it in turn. You felt your cheeks heat up, but you couldn’t help the smile from growing on your face, Carlos sent you a wink when you looked up to gaze him. 

     “At least two of us believe it to be true.” You hear Jill let out a huff as Carlos continues to pilot the helicopter. Feeling slightly daring, you lean up to place a peck on his cheek. Which unintentionally distracted him causing the helicopter to jolt and for Jill to let out some colorful words. “That’s it, no more distracting the pilot. You two aren’t sitting together until we land.” Fearing Jil more than trying to soothe pouting Carlos, you moved to the back. “Don’t worry Carlos, you still have that I.O.U.” Before Carlos could get a word in, Jill beat him to it. “He isn’t cashing anything until we land. I’m not about the die after surviving the zombies because Carlos can’t concentrate.”

[resident-leevil-old]

okay well anyways somebody asked me if i felt like talking about my raccoon city survivors au with mia and ethan again and the answer is YES.

> AU MINI FACTS <

- Ethan's mother died while giving birth.

- Ethan Winters and his father moved into Raccoon City when Ethan was a baby, around 3-4 years old.

- Ethan trans ftm because im trans and i said so.

- Mia trans mtf because im trans and i said so.

- Ethan & Mia are childhood friend to lovers in this au.

- Ethan's father worked for Umbrella, and Mia's father worked for the Connections while her mother also worked for Umbrella.

- Mia was born in Texas, but her family moved to Raccoon City after she was born. They still owned property in Texas, though.

- Mia & Carlos are related because I said so.

- so yknow the "dude its been three years" guy? that's their childhood friend and his name is Kyde because i said so.

- Albert Wesker Personally was ordered by Spencer to kill those scientists btw.

- a lot of this au is because i said so tbh

> AU SUMMARY <

Ethan Winters, Mia Oliviera, and Kyde Wells work together to survive six days of the Raccoon City Outbreak. In the process they uncover secrets and encounter many obstacles that just nearly cost them their lives.

> CHAR.BGROUND <

ETHAN W, SR - A scientist who worked for Umbrella. He lost his wife during the birth of his child E///// Winters. Struggling with the death of his wife and the harsh decline of his mental health, he began to experiment with viruses and vaccines in an attempt to bring his wife back, even using his child as a subject at certain points due to the child having strong genes from the mother. He acknowledged that he was a horrid father, but justified his actions by claiming he would bring back a better mother. He thought of Albert Wesker as a friend, and told him the truth of his research.

ETHAN W, JR - A quiet 14 year old that had a hard time making friends. Due to experiments from his father, Ethan is a culmination of infections and viruses that each impact him in different ways. As he grew up Ethan refrained from talking too much as to not interrupt his father's work, causing him to become selectively mute.

MIA OLIVIERA - Younger sister of Carlos Oliviera. Mia skipped a grade due to her intelligence and advanced knowledge on many things kids her age normally didn't. She very easily got sick as a child, though she seemed to outgrow it as she got older. She was schooled both at home and at school before the outbreak. She shared classes with Ethan Winters (Jr) and Kyde Wells.

KYDE WELLS - A friend of Ethan & Mia, known for his cowardice. Kyde has a heavy sense of self preservation, but a weighted sense of compassion as well. He only ever has risked himself for his two friends.

JAMES HARISON - Mia's father. He worked for the Connections as a scientist and a researcher. Harison and his wife often exchanged information they learned from their jobs, aiming to and succeeding at "fixing" their daughter's proneness to viral sicknesses.

MARISA OLIVIERA - Mia's mother. He worked for Umbrella as a researcher. Oliviera and her husband often exchanged information they learned from their jobs, aiming to and succeeding at "fixing" their daughter's proneness to viral sicknesses.

JAKE VERANO - An Umbrella worker who had been trapped in the underground facility for a week, listening to the sound of his coworkers being eaten alive. Unstable because of his experience, he tries to create a cure using the intel of Ethan W (SR).

> FULL AU <

[September, 25, 1998.]

Ethan Winters walked home from school when his father failed to pick him up. He walked through the streets, paying no mind to a big fight breaking out near him. On the way home, he meets up with his friend Kyde who had also been walking home. They talk and walk together for a bit, before splitting up.

When Ethan arrived home, he noticed the front door of his house had been opened slightly. Confused, but wary, he entered the house, knowing it was uncharacteristic for his father to forget the door was open.

He entered the living room, and found his father laying on the ground dead, shot twice in the head, having just been killed moments prior. Ethan moved over to his father, before Albert Wesker walked out of his father's office.

Ethan barely has much time to react to him, overwhelmed by his own panic and the death of the only adult in his life. Wesker - wanting no witnesses - shoots him three times in the chest, and leaves under the impression the child is dead for good.

Ethan Winters dies for the first time that evening.

[September, 27, 1998]

For the past two days, Mia and her parents have been barricaded in their home, unable to leave safely. Mia sat in her room for most of the time, unable to look out of the windows due to boards covering them. During those two days Mia tries to call Ethan and Kyde several times in hopes that they were safe. Neither of them answer.

Until this day, the 27th, at 2:00 am, when she calls Ethan. And he answers.

{TRANSCRIPT OF THEIR CALL:}

Ethan: h-hello?

Mia: [Ethan]! You're alive! Are you okay?

Ethan: I'm breathing. [Pause] I'm breathing. You okay?

Mia: I'm boarded up in my house, we can't leave safely. Everything is a mess. I'm so glad you're alive, [Ethan]. Are you safe? I'm guessing you're safe.

Ethan: Not sure. Not sure. Find you soon, here alone. Alone.

Mia: Alone? What happened? Where's your dad?

Ethan: [Pause.] [Loud sound in the distance.]

Mia: [Ethan]? Are you okay?

Ethan: [Dial tone.]

Mia speaks with her parents about the call, expressing worry about her friend. She spends a while trying to convince her parents that Ethan may be alive (purposefully omitting the dial tone) and need their help. Finally, they agree, and at 12 pm, they head out with all the resources they could gather.

Managing to stay out of sight, the family make it to the Winters' household. They find Ethan hiding in his bedroom, one infected laying in the hallway with a pole through its head and Ethan's father laying in the living room dead.

They rescue Ethan, and flee from the house. Mia's parents explain that they need to evacuate the city, but that they wouldn't be able to drive, so they'd have to move on foot. They returned to their house and rested for the night.

[September, 28, 1998]

The family and Ethan head out again, this time aiming to evacuate the city. After several close encounters with large groups of infected, the kids and Mia's parents are unfortunately separated. Given instructions by her parents, Mia leads Ethan through the city, having to take detours due to infected blocking pathways.

Eventually, during the night, they run into Kyde, who has lost his parents trying to escape the city. The three of them take refuge in an empty abandoned house, and rest for the walk in the morning.

Ethan sits up for a while, thinking about what happened to him, and trying to figure out how to explain it to his friends. Eventually he falls asleep, unable to figure it out. In the morning they head out again.

[September, 29-30, 1998]

During another detour taken due to large groups of infected, Ethan is kidnapped by a man in a white lab coat.

Mia & Kyde go after them, refusing to leave Ethan behind. They manage to find him after roughly half a day had passed.

Ethan had been in a hysterical state and through tears he explains to Mia and Kyde what had happened to him in his house a few days ago, confessing that he had died and revived two days later. He warns the two of them that whatever Jake, the white lab coat man, did to him, it made him dangerous and unstable.

Mia and Kyde refused again to leave him behind, and spend hours gathering information from files and research left scattered around. They manage to make Something that was able to calm him down and cleanse what they had learned had been called the "T-virus" from his body.

As soon as Ethan had woken up again, they fleed the facility, Mia & Kyde both making sure he didn't collapse on the way.

[October, 1, 1998]

They don't stop running when they're out. A broadcast goes out saying that the city will be blown up in four hours due to being unable to contain the outbreak. The three of them realize they won't be able to get out if they take anymore detours unless they find a vehicle with gas in it and a clear road to drive on.

Three hours later, out of options, nearly to the city boarder, and faced with another group of infected blocking the only straight shot out, they decide to risk a run through. However, just as they were pushing through, a helicopter flew overhead and spotted them. Calling to them, the pilot tells them to attempt making it up a building nearby if they could.

Through pure bullshittery and luck, they manage to make it up, and they board the helicopter. Just as it begins to take flight, the city starts to blow up bit by bit. In the distance, they see other helicopters flying.

> AFTER THE AU <

Mia and her parents reunite, her parents having managed to get out before the children did. Kyde goes to live with his relatives in Texas, and Ethan is offered to live with them as well.

Mia's parents move back to their texas home, and everyone who had been in the city were given therapy. Eventually the three grow up and graduate from highschool, and move on to other things, never once separating.

The three of them eventually move into a single house together in California, and some time after that Mia and Ethan get married. And for a while they live happily

And then, Mia witnesses Ethan having some sort of attack in the middle of the night one time, and realizes that he hadn't been completely cured of whatever had been infecting him in the city at all, and that it had only gone dormant for some years. While he wasn't vicious or attacking anyone, Ethan had just been really plagued and didn't even remember the fits that only seemed to happen every other night.

Out of worry and fear, Mia begins to work for the Connections, hoping there was something she could learn from them in order to help her husband finally be cured. And years after, RE7 began.

And THAT, my friends, is my Raccoon City Survivors au with the Winters, also known as Raccoon City Winters.

Rookie Chapter 11 (Leon Kennedy X Reader

Words: 2916

A/N: Sorry it took so long! I’m gonna wrap this up in a chapter or two and then get working on Carlos Oliviera

"She's not FBI, she's a mercenary." Annette said between breaths. She lay in front of you, holding onto her bloody side.

You knew it. All this time you knew she was hiding something and it felt so good being right. The way she acted didn't seem right for FBI agent (though you had never met one.) But she did have a surprising skill set, which is what made you trust her word in the first place. That skill set made even more sense for a mercenary, though, and a smile crept onto your lips. You looked over to Leon, who stood stiffly in place.

"And the G virus will go to the highest bidder, right?" you spoke, Annette nodded.

"That's bullshit!" Leon scoffed, though unconvincingly. He knew it was true, and you could tell. The poor boy couldn't get over his little crush, could he?

"Leon," you said "You know it's true." He didn't answer. "Who do you trust more? Me or Ada?" You began again, with no response. "If you trust me, we'll destroy the virus and Raccoon City will never happen again. But if you trust her, all you can do is hope you're right. You've got to pick."

He looked anywhere but your face.

"What's the FBI going to do with it anyway? We can end this right here."

For a moment, anger flashed on his face. Then shame, and then, nothing.

"Let me talk to Ada first, give her a chance to defend herself," he said.

You sighed, opening the door in front of you. Then the beeping started again.

"Self destruction protocol activated, use the central elevator to get to the bottom-level train platform."

Both you and Leon broke out into a sprint.

Down another hallway and into the main shaft, you and Leon almost forget what you were arguing about. That is, until she showed up. She stepped out from behind the elevator and unlocked it with her security wristband.

You stopped running at the sight of her, waiting for Leon's reaction. He slowed down into a walk, and you followed behind.

"Y'know I was just thinking about you," he began. What was he doing, you thought.

"That makes two of us" Ada began, looking up as the walls started shaking. "I was getting worried."

"You know we make a good team, but I gotta ask you something."

"Do you have the sample?" She asked, trying to rush this exchange.

"Oh he's got it alright," you said. She gave you a confused look, but it fell away once she held out her hand.

"Just give me the sample and we can get the hell out of here!"

"Before we do that... We ran into Annette." Leon said, his voice low. Recognition flashed across Ada's face: she knew what was about to be said. "She claims you're not FBI."

The walls around you were still shaking, a stark contrast to the collected demeanor of Ada, who was no longer in a rush to get out of here.

"Oh, Leon..." she turned her head, a fake chuckle escaping her lips. In one swift motion, she pulled out her gun and aimed it at him. "Why couldn't you have just handed over the sample?"

Within a second you and Leon had your guns out too.

"Because I realized, as much as I wanted to trust you, I couldn't."

"I really hoped it wouldn't end like this," Ada said, her finger hovering over the trigger.

"So that's all this was... I was just some pawn to you?" He said, biting his lip to stop its quiver. She looked at him, fighting back the guilt that was rising up. Not the he or you could tell. Her demeanor was a steel wall, you only saw what she wanted you to.

"Look, I'm just doing my job."

"And I'm doing mine, so drop that damn gun!" He yelled at her, taking a step forward. "I'm taking you in."

Ada wasn't focused on you. She was focused on only Leon and the sample. Your gun was pointed at her head, and you knew you could end this right here, right now. Your hands began to shake as you held the pistol, because much as you wanted to, you couldn't. You couldn't kill another living person, no matter the circumstances. But she couldn't know that, so you squeezed your gun to stop your hands from shaking.

"Hand over the sample, Leon." She said slow and firm, "I don't want to hurt you."

Half of the bridge fell behind you, making you and Leon stumble forward. Still, Leon trained just gun on Ada. The building was really falling apart now; none of you were gonna make it out if they continued their standoff.

"The building is about to collapse, Let's just get on the elevator!" You pleaded, but it fell on deaf ears. They stood a few more seconds, before Leon put down his gun.

"Then shoot me, but I don't think you can."

She kept her gun on him for a moment, before pointing it on you.

"Don't you dare!" Leon shouted. Ada just smiled. Your eyes met, and though she kept her devious smile, her eyes told a different story. Her facade was crumbling. She couldn't shoot you either.

"Hand me the sample," she said to Leon. He pulled the vial from his front shirt pocket.

"Don't give it to her," you said calmly. He looked back at you, into your eyes, and knew you had a plan. What scared him, though, was he had no idea what your plan was. Still, he had to trust you. This was bigger than the two of you; he couldn’t let the sample get into the wrong hands, so he dropped the vial back into his pocket.

"He's not going to give it to you, so why don't you shoot me?" You said, cocking a brow. Her head jerked from you to Leon.

"Don't test me Leon, give me the sample" she growled at him.

"He's not gonna do it. Now shoot me, I know you've wanted to all night.”

"Y/N what the hell are you doing?" Leon shouted. This was your plan? Of all things, this? Sure, his original plan was similar, but Ada really didn’t like you. Taunting her seemed like an easy way to get killed. But then he saw Ada's eyes, too. She couldn't shoot.

"Do it!” You yelled at her, sporting a grin of your own. She glared at you, her own lip starting to quiver, but she did nothing. "You can't can you?"

She dropped her gun, looking down in defeat. You had beaten her. You had broken down her facade, and she was weak without it. Guess she did have a soul...

A gunshot rang through the crumbling lab. But it was not from Ada's gun. Nor from yours or Leon's. You watched as blood trickled down from Ada's shoulder, too shocked to process what had just happened.

Leon looked back at Annette, who's bloody hands were wrapped around a pistol.

The rest of the bridge shook, Plummeting Ada off it's side, Before she fell, though, Leon dropped down to catch her arm with both of his hands. The virus dropped from his shirt pocket, but he didn't notice.

"I got you!" He strained

The building continued to quake, debris and dust falling from the ceiling.

"Leon..." Ada said.

"Hold on, I think I can—" Leon tried to lift Ada up, but the sudden motion made the rest of the bridge start to collapse. The metal platforms Leon had just crossed slid into abyss below. Leon lay on the last platform that looked like it could fall any minute.

"Leon!" You screamed. He was about to lose his life and all you could do was watch. You had ran towards the elevator as soon as the bridge started shaking, and at first you didn't even realize Ada had slipped. It wasn't until you looked behind you and saw Leon laying on the platform that you knew something was wrong, really wrong.

"Forget it." Ada said.

"Shut up— I've got you!" Leon hissed, straining his body to stay on the slipping platform.

"It's not worth it." Ada said. And for the first time that night, her words were genuine. Leon stared at her, until he felt her struggling to leave his grasp.

"Don't do this,"

Ada looked down at the abyss below, then back at Leon.

"Take care of yourself, Leon. And take care of her too.”

She slipped out of his grasp, and fell out of his sight as gracefully as she had first entered it.

Arms grasped around his waist, struggling to pull him up from the bridge. It was you. They say some people get superhuman strength in times of emergency, and that must have happened, because you pulled him to safety.

You stood up, and held out your hand for him to grab. After a moment of hesitation, he grabbed your hand and stood up. Your eyes met for a moment, and you saw the tears he wouldn't let fall. You squeezed his hand before leading him to the elevator.

The ride in the elevator was uncomfortably silent, and through the glass walls of the elevator you could see the lab going up in flames. There were explosions everywhere, smoke pouring out of every crack and crevice.

Things weren’t looking good; there was a big chance you wouldn’t make it. You didn’t want to think about what the odds were.

The elevator stopped and you arrived in what looked like a control room. Monitors of varying sizes covered the walls, and below them were panels with buttons and levers.

"Who's that? Leon said, pointing to one of the monitors. He stepped forward, looking around the control desk, and pressed a few random buttons.

"Hey, don't press those! You don't know what they'll do!" You scolded him. But then he pressed another, and the closest monitor flashed the face of the girl from the courtyard earlier.

"Claire!" Leon yelled into the speaker.

"Leon? You're down here too!" She replied.

"Look, the whole place is coming down. Listen to me, you need to get out. Fast!"

"Yeah, there's a way out!"She said. You held your breath. "Where are you now?"

The screen then filled with static.

"What the hell?" You said, frantically pushing buttons in the hopes the video would come back.

"I thought you said we shouldn't press buttons," Leon cocked a brow. You glared at him.

"Warning: Ten minutes until self destruction"

Fire. As you and Leon ran to find an exit, fire surrounded you. Explosions everywhere, the heat unbearable. And then, the tyrant.

"Why can't it just leave us alone!" Leon yelled, running in the other direction and through another fiery hall. His hand gripped yours, making sure that you wouldn't get separated. He couldn't lose you, he had just lost Ada.

An explosion filled your path with flames, and in that split second when neither you nor Leon moved forward, a large, gloves hand wrapped around your neck from behind and lifted you off of the ground. You struggled to breathe, and the little air you could catch was smoke.

"Don't touch her!" Leon screamed at the creature, who didn't even flinch. He tried shooting at it, but nothing happened. He tried all of his other weapons but to no avail. Finally resorted to punching it in its side. Maybe he'd hit a kidney (if it even had any) and it would let you down. He was getting desperate.

Just before you lost consciousness, there was another explosion. The force knocked you away from they tyrant, and onto the metal bar floor, which had broken from the explosion. Another burst sent you flying down to the floor below you.

Leon jumped down to your level, just before many more explosions separated you from the creature.

He pulled your head into his lap as you choked for air, the smoke only made it harder to catch your breath.

"Eight minutes remaining before self destruction" the intercom spoke again.

Suddenly, your lungs filled back up with air. You jumped up, a bit too quickly, and steadied yourself on the nearest wall.

"We gotta keep going," you said to Leon.

You and Leon had no idea where you were running or how the lab was even set up, but there was no time to waste. There was only time to act.

Leon pulled down the lever in front of him. The two of you were on a large platform used for transportation. It followed a set path down to the lowest level of the lab. Just as it started moving, there was another explosion. You turned, and within the dust and flame emerged a familiar figure. This time, it had lost its trench coat and it's blue arm was mutating. It jumped down onto the moving platform, flames still covering its body like it had just crawled out of hell. Then, it charged towards you and Leon.

"Divide and conquer!" You yelled at Leon. So you and him struggled to keep the beast at bay. Unfortunately, this one was a bit more intelligent than William, which meant it still hurt you and Leon quite a bit.

You and Leon were losing your stamina quick, for you had been running and fighting all night. The creature, on the other hand, just got more and more aggressive as time went by.

A weapons case fell onto the platform, and from the corner of your eye, you saw a flash of red. Could it be? No, there's no way.

The monster lunged at you, and you lunged to the floor, grabbing the rocket launcher from it case. It turned around, making eye contact with you, and with one pull of a trigger its upper body was nothing more than sludge on the ground.

The platform arrived at the bottom level of the facility, and you and Leon jumped off of it. You ran out of the nearest door, and noticed train tracks in front of you. A familiar whistle and the sound of thunder let you know you found your way out. Eyes wide, you looked back at Leon, who was just as relieved as you.

You were gonna make it.

Within a few seconds, the train appeared from out the tunnel, and you and Leon chased after it. Perfect timing too, because the structure was falling apart behind you. Leon lunged and grabbed a metal bar, pulling himself up in between the cars, then he turned to you, and reached for your hand. You ran as fast as you could, but you couldn't meet his hand. Finally, you jumped, and he caught your wrist, pulling you up next to him.

Both of you caught your breaths, for the first time all night you had felt peace. You looked over to Leon, who was fiddling with the ID wristband Ada gave him, and then you remembered. This journey was not without its losses. Even after all that happened, you couldn't hate her and you're not sure why.

"I'm sorry, I know you kinda had a thing for her," you said, trying to comfort him.

"A thing?" He weakly laughed. "No, no, I just really looked up to her is all. I thought she was this kick-ass FBI agent, and I just wanted to be like her, y’know? Like an idol, I guess. She kissed me, but I never kissed back.”

“Oh th-, Oh," you caught yourself before an ‘oh thank God’ came out of your mouth. Leon furrowed his eyebrows at you, but then turned back away.

The corners of your mouth lifted a little, you realized all of your jealousy, all of your anger was blown way out of proportion. She may have kissed him, but he didn't reciprocate. You were partially relieved, but that still doesn't mean he likes you. Sure, there was tension. Lots of it. But he may have something with Claire too... Wait, Claire?

"Where's Claire?" You asked. Leon's eyes widened, for he had just been talking to her a few minutes ago and had already forgotten about her.

"Who's running the train?" He asked. The two of you jumped up and busted open the door of the closest train car.

Upon entering, you were met with two faces. One of which was Claire, thank God. A little girl was by her side, too, with striking blonde hair and blue eyes. She reminded you a little bit of Annette, strange, you thought.

"Leon, Y/N!" Claire said, approaching the two of you. She stood there a moment, looking between you and Leon’s faces. Neither of you were looking too pretty right now, but hey, neither was she. "We made it," she finally said, "Just like I said we would."

"And who's this?" You asked, turning to the little girl. Claire wrapped her arm around the little girl's shoulder.

"This is Sherry."

"Hey Sherry," Leon waved to the girl. She smiled up at him.

The whole train shook, knocking you off of your feet and into the body next to you, Leon.

"What the hell was that?" He asked, steadying you. And just like that, your false sense of safety fell away. You didn't want to know what just happened, or what caused it, but looking at the faces of Claire and little sherry, you knew what you had to do.

"We should check it out.”

What are your favorite games and franchises? Top 5?

OH BOY have I got feelings on this subject. 

Please keep in mind - I’m a storyteller and a writer. I fucking /love/ a good story. I DM a DnD game and my biggest weakness is that I don’t often include enough combat because I am so much more interested in telling a story. So for me, there’s got to be an emotional investment for a game to really land. I also hyperfixate like a motherfucker so I often refuse to pick up new things purely because there’s not enough space in my head for them at the time, so I’m slow getting to things as they come out. 

So, I’m first and foremost a survival horror bitch. I cut my teeth on Parasite Eve before I played any others - my mother scrimped and saved and fought her way through Wal-mart back in like 1998 to get me the original Playstation gaming console and Tekken 2 (which was my first PS game, I played it in an arcade near her barber shop as a child - Tomb Raider 2 was my second). The old Playstation discs at that time came with demos for different games, including Metal Gear Solid, which I replayed until I could have done it in my sleep because poverty meant I wasn’t likely to get another game anytime soon. I mention this because the Parasite Eve trailer used to give me nightmares but I was super, super hooked. 

I am a huge Silent Hill fan. Huge. That is a tragedy I could write a whole ‘nother post about, because as excited as I am to finally get my hands on Death Stranding (again, poverty, so it’ll be another minute before we can get a PS4), we’ll never get another SH game again unless some major reconciliation happens with Kojima and Konami, which is unlikely (and also hard to hope for - I’m happy Kojima now has the creative freedom to go as balls to the wall as he wants). 

I am an equally huge Resident Evil fan. I’ve always maintained that my first fandom was The X Files, but my wife pointed out a few nights ago that my RE love started around the same time in the late 90′s, so now it’s a chicken and egg kind of thing. Point being, it’s either The or One Of my longest lasting fandoms/interests. RE and Silent Hill get compared to one another a lot - RE7 did nothing to help that - but they really are apples and oranges to me. Fruit, sure, but two totally different tones and experiences. 

I’ve been a huge Tomb Raider fan for forever - my first high school boyfriend was loaded and bought me Angel of Darkness to come play at his house and while it was def critically panned, I do recall enjoying it - so that’s been fun to get those games remade with updated graphics. I’ve only played the one but the others are def on The List. 

So now that I’ve talked for an hour, my Top 5 fave games ever - 

#1 - Resident Evil 3 I am beyond jazzed for this remake, and a lot of people in the 90′s complained about RE3′s lack of clear cut boss battles, but I don’t know what they’re talking about. The entire fucking game is a boss battle - Jill vs. Raccoon City, and of course, Nemesis, who used to give my mother nightmares and caused me to sleep with a leaf-stabber by my bed for years. Jill is far and away my favorite protagonist in RE; she’s got a resilience of the spirit that somehow isn’t conflated with naivety, which is uncommon in ‘nice’ female protags. She’s savvy but she’s still kind, and she’s committed as fuck to survival - not to mention, as zealotous a Chris and Jill shipper as I am, she and Carlos had hella chemistry and I’m excited to see where that goes (JD Pardo would have made a fuck of a Carlos Oliviera, btw). It was An Experience and it’s forever at my #1. 

#2 - The Last of Us 

There is no comparison for emotional weight in video games, as far as I’m concerned. SPOILERS if you don’t already know the ending (this game came out in what, 2014?) but to me one of the biggest thing in the game’s favor is that the protagonist made the wrong choice. He had an option to potentially eradicate the cordyceps fungus and maybe save the world, turn the tides back for humanity, and with the weight of the world in the balance, he chose to save Ellie instead. It was, on a global scale, the wrong choice - but it was the human choice. It was the thing that a dad who never properly grieved his dead daughter would do for the surrogate daughter he inherited by accident. As for Ellie, there is no other character quite like her in games, and she’s fucking quality LGBT representation, especially considering how little we see queer children in media. I still cry every time, we play this game twice a year like clockwork and every single time, I still cry. 

#3 - Silent Hill 3 

All of SH’s games will have a special place in my heart - and if you wanna talk shit about Downpour, I’ll meet you in the Denny’s parking lot at 11, you better square the fuck up because I will defend Murphy with fists - but 3 is the best, hands down. I felt like it did the best job of streamlining the series’ ... uhm... somewhat complicated lore into something more understandable. SPOILERS: The villains are horrific - the Missionaries strike fear into my heart every time I play, and Claudia eating a miscarried god fetus to become god herself? Fucked up on a level you rarely see. I suppose if you didn’t catch it in the last sentence - your protag Heather vomits up a fetal god late in the game. Yes, you read that right. The best thing about this game though? Heather. I could climb up my feminist soapbox and talk about Heather as a subversion to video game tropes all fucking day - she’s a nonsexualized teenage girl whose father is killed for her character development. She’s self-sufficient, tough but still vulnerable, and hard as nails in a fight. As I might have mentioned a time or six, she also voluntarily aborts a god because Fuck Your Plans, She’s Got Her Own. 

#4 - Final Fantasy X 

Listen. I don’t know how much of this is because of actually enjoying playing the game and how much of it is emotional attachment. As most of you who follow me know, my mother died when I was sixteen. When I was about fourteen, I dated a rich kid who used to bring his PS2 to our very not-rich house and play games for us to watch - the sort of neophyte version of Watching Guys Play Videogames, if you will, which is another rant for another time. He got a Gamecube specifically so I could play RE Zero and Hunter The Reckoning. He was a neckbeard but he was also desperate to keep me from ditching so he did the smart thing and plied my very poor ass with money and food. The #1 game in the watching roster, though, was FFX - and if you know anything about the game, you know how heavily spirituality features into the story. My mother, very caught up in a very Eastern Philosphy Meets Quantum Physics internal seeking about the nature of things, was hooked from the word Go. She used to sit and watch Trey play for hours - we all did, but having her join us and love it that much? Wonderful. Half my memories of this game are both of us crying - crying when Yuna dances to send the souls, crying when Yuna reveals she’s on a suicide mission, crying when she and Tidus fall in love anyway, crying when she sends her Aeons to die in the final fight, crying over ‘the fayts are waking up’, crying when the big reveal about Auron comes up, crying crying crying. My wife bought it in 2011 and I watched her play through it again and while it suffers from the same issue as all FF games - too much filler and weird battle scenarios - it was cathartic. I miss my mom. 

#5 - Resident Evil 6 

Eat my entire ass. You already knew this was coming. I will defend this game to my grave for the fact that we have complex, interesting narratives surrounding female characters who have actual personalities. Was it perfect? No. Did it take RE out of horror territory and move it more into action? Woefully, yes. Is this series deeply problematic for where it chooses to set down your mostly-white protags and have them kill their way through? Big time. Don’t gloss those facts. But it’s got emotional punch in spades and a few weird character breaks that ended up being kind of brilliant - Chris has been so resiliently relentless in his fight against bioterrorism that a major PTSD break was inevitable. Leon would of course risk life and limb to help Helena, even though she implicated herself in something terrible. The icing on the cake to me was a grown up Sherry Birkin, wide eyed and believing like hell in the fight she thought she was on the right side of and getting knocked down only to get back up. Ada’s entire side campaign was brilliant. I hate some of the control choices they made in this game - the running from the Haos scenes near the end of Chris and Piers’ campaign makes me want to eat my own fist - but so it goes with most RE games (until RE4, moving your protag was like driving a tank). Jake and Sherry are My Unsinkable Ship. There are at least six scenes across this game that never get easier to watch - when the bomb hits the city and the cut scene of the mass infections begin, I still get sick to my stomach - and that, to me, is the mark that this game struck a hell of a chord in terms of storytelling. 

This was long. 

[timewithtimmy]

I’m going to try the blog thing see if I like it…

Honestly, I should’ve been more prepared. I wanted to start this on a certain day, at a certain time, but as my life would have it, I’m writing this at 11:20am on a Tuesday.

What my major plan was, was to just pour my thoughts as I’m thinking them onto this post and see how that goes. I know that blogs take a while for momentum but that’s ok, I’m not writing anything specific really.

So the first thing that came to mind was Resident Evil and all its glory in 2021. So, let’s talk RE.

Resident Evil has surprised many with its releases (or to be released) this year. My favorite drop at the moment has to be the Dead By Daylight DLC. The fact that they added Nemesis, Jill, AND Leon is mind blowing. Can’t wait to see what perks the survivors have. I mention them first because I’ve already seen Nemesis gameplay. I’m not exactly thrilled with his moves, but I am happy with the addition of zombies on the map.

The next most anticipated release coming for me would be Infinite Darkness. Again, we get Leon, but also, Claire. Leon and Claire have helped each other through Resi2, RE Code Veronica, Degeneration, and now this. These two never get a break do they? Infinite Darkness is a CGI Netflix original developed by Capcom and takes place in 2006 at the White House. I can’t wait to see what shenanigans Kennedy and Redfield get themselves into this time.

Obviously, I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t super 100% happy with Resident Evil 8 Village. Ethan proves himself worthy of the Resident Evil protagonist title by making his way through a dampened and decrepit village, run by none other than THE originator of bioterrorism. Chris is there with his new badass team, there’s metal bending and tall sexy vampire ladies and- you know what? Just go play the game. It’s a masterpiece. (Other than hearing Carlos Oliviera with Redfield’s face)

Lastly, I’m very excited to see the reboot to the live action film series Resident Evil: Welcome To Raccoon City. It’s packed full of stars and we even get Avan Jogia as Leon! Wesker is in the mix and Chris is back with Jill. Speaking of Leon, Chris, and Jill, we get Claire! The character line-up is there, we are getting a more true plot line that’s more aligned with the games than previous installments. Not hating on you Alice, I’m just sayin’.

Well I guess that concludes this blog post. I hope you liked it. At some point this will become old and we would have seen all the Resident Evil things to come in 2021, but, until then we can stay excited and speculate on how things will unfold.
