#resident evil salt

[fevers-and-emeto-oh-my]

by the way if you put anti shit in the main tags of your fandom you need a crash course in basic tumblr etiquette

if it's fandom wank or salt it gets its OWN tag to say "resident evil wank" "resident evil salt" fucking "leon kennedy wank" or whatever. "fandom wank" or "fandom discourse" would ALSO be acceptable

don't just full on ATTACK people in the main tags. because now I feel attacked in my own fandom for *checks notes*: enjoying harmless dead dove content

if you want to be an anti in the nonconsensual human experimentation fandom that's fine i guess, doesn't make sense to me but you do what floats your boat. BUT DON'T GO CALLING PEOPLE FREAKS IN THE FUCKING "Leon S. Kennedy" TAG

someone just told me donna looks like a pepper shaker 😭😭😭😭

[echo-nt]

I know this has already been said and I’m super late, but Mia as the protag of RE8 would have been so good. The contrast between Mia, the Lords, and Mother Miranda would have been absolutely interesting. I'm shoving everything under a read more because damn I have so many thoughts about Mia.

Lady Dimitrescu is a woman that cannibalizes and drinks the blood of her servants and intruders. On top of that, she tortures before preying on them. She does this willingly and very much derives pleasure from doing so. Lady D’s gothic triplets hunt any poor fool that wanders in. It’s a fun family activity for them just as much as it’s for sustenance. 

Do you know what this parallels? The Baker family under Eveline’s control. They patrol the estate and anyone who rejects the “gift” either ends up molded or on the dinner table. This family also partakes in a fucked up version of a family dinner, eating the victims that refused their little girl’s “gift.” 

However, a major difference between the Baker and Dimitrescu family is their willingness to participate in these activities. A family of cannibals; one forced while the other relishes in it. 

Mia is still very traumatized by her three years in the Baker’s estate. Breaking into the castle to find her daughter would force her back. Hello to all the emotions that come with those memories, the ones Mia has been trying to forget. The harder you try to forget something, the more you think about it. What better way to make Mia acknowledge Dulvey, Louisiana than by forcing her into something so similar? 

And while she’s still reeling from remembering her time in captivity, why not push her a bit further down memory lane with House Beneviento? Mia has demonstrated at multiple points in RE7 that she does care about other lives. She lies to Ethan to keep him from getting caught up in her work. She tries to save Alan and crew members of "The Annabelle" (the crew members are a bit more indirect, she mainly focused on Alan) by containing Eveline. After Jack finds her, Mia keeps her distance to keep from infecting them while trying to write a warning. She tries her hardest during RE7 to save Ethan. 

Mia’s hallucinations could center on her guilt. The failure to stop Eveline and the lives ruined as a result. How she was always too late to help anyone. Ethan curing her, a criminal, over Zoe, the person helping him. Leaving Zoe behind in the shattered remains of her home and family. Surviving. Visions of Ethan hinting at his “condition” could lure her to the manor. A little nudge to the whole “he was mold the entire time” plot twist without fully giving it away. 

Moreau, lacking in self worth and very attached to a woman who doesn’t give him the time a day, yet still he considers her as his mother. Most of his actions are for the attention and validation from his “mother.” No matter what Moreau does, he’ll never have her affection or time. It’s sad, isn’t it? To witness a man try so hard only to be rejected. And isn’t that familiar? Mia once felt compassion for someone with similar traits. 

Remember the little girl who considered you her mother? The one that spent three years waiting for you to love her after you promised? The one you had a hand in killing? What makes you think you could ever be a good mother after what you did? Why are you trying so hard to save Rose when you didn’t even extend the same courtesy to Eveline?

Y’all know how Mia’s past is a mystery? Like why she was working for the Connections and how she was even recruited and all that. Heisenberg would be a great way to explore it. A man taken, forced into becoming something else, and stuck in a family he doesn’t want. Mia can relate. He wants to use her daughter as a weapon. She was willing to let another child be used as a weapon. They’re alike, so surely Mia would be willing to side with him.

But Heisenberg is cocky and Mia isn’t the person she was prior/during 7. Even if she was on board with using Eveline as a weapon to end all wars or whatever bullshit the Connections told her, she’s not willing now. Not after what she’s seen and been through. This section could be Heisenberg goading her through the tvs/intercoms about her past to change her mind with Mia remaining steadfast in her refusal.

And then there’s Mother Miranda. Two mothers trying to get their daughters back through vastly different means. Because of the group photo showing Mia and Miranda with Eveline this encounter can go one of two ways. 

Miranda and Mia know each other and have worked together before. Whether it be on the E-Series Project (with Mia becoming the caretaker and spending copious amounts of time at the lab) or though some other means at work. 

They’ve only briefly met when the Connections were in a hurry to transport Eveline.

Either way, Miranda would compare them. As a mother, Mia must understand what she’s trying to accomplish. Would Mia not do the same as she? Maybe at this point Miranda shows she killed Ethan to demoralize to prevent her from interfering with the ceremony. Tells her she’s too late once again and to give Rose to her because she’ll be the superior mother.

Idk, I guess you could switch to Ethan instead of Chris so he can still have Eveline tell him he’s moldy. But he’s a stubborn man and he forces himself back to weaken Miranda so Mia can kill her. Chris shows up and Ethan does the same thing he did at the end by blowing himself up with Chris forcing Mia (with Rose) on the helicopter. That way the Shadow of Rose DLC can still be about Rose and Ethan. 

TLDR; Mia should have been the protagonist because it would have allowed us to explore her character and background more. It was a missed opportunity especially since so much of RE8 centers around mothers. It would have played out better as closing off the Winters Family saga as well since we could have tied the loose ends that came with Mia’s mysterious past.

I don’t even know why I was shocked that the officially licensed Resident Evil bath salts gives me a tub that looks straight out of a j horror movie.

[emailandpassword]

Leon being able to cook but he can literally only make variations of chicken, veggies, and rice

What’s for dinner? Grilled rosemary lemon chicken, asparagus, and wild rice

The next day? Grilled cayenne chicken, steamed broccoli and cauliflower, ancient grain mix

Day after that? Caldo de pollo con arroz

[jackienautism]

ok not to be a little hater but i dont think we talk about how much of a DUMB BITCH ethan is genuinely. like. hate to be like that but if you can lose 2 limbs in canon (3 depending on what happens w/ your first encounter w/ jack!) and then jhave them REATTACHED using just one first aid bottle, then its on you if you dont realize theres somethign wrong w/ your body just fucking saying

of COURSE mia not telling him was shitty, especially considering how shes literally moldy too, but ??????????????????????/ how can you go through what ethan went through, read information about the mold that ethan read, and come out not being like hmmmmm i think my body is fucked up. it just doesnt make any sense

[oreo-leon]

I FUCKING GOT IT LETS GOOOO!!!!!!

[delicatebluebirdruins]

I have been wanting to ask this for a while Why would Mia be put in prison after Rose is a little older and not directly after the events of seven?

[clamorybus]

why does my brain want me to make ocs for media properties ive never interacted with

[fevers-and-emeto-oh-my]

my rage stems from the fact that people continue putting fandom wank, discourse, and anti/purity culture bullshit in the main tags. I don't follow the Leon Kennedy and Res Evil tags so I can read posts about how much you hate me for writing dead dove. "fandom wank" and "fandom discourse" exist as tags FOR A REASON

Also, not for nothing--dead dove content is in the canon of Resident Evil. So if you're anti-dead dove you're a hypocrite for being in the fandom and enjoying the source material. Just FYI.

Get attacked!! ✨🌈SEND THIS TO OTHER BLOGGERS YOU THINK ARE WONDERFUL. KEEP THE GAME GOING🌈✨💞

[delicatebluebirdruins]

I know, I know and she is outright called a bioweapon a few times as well putting some screenshots under the read more because I can

shall we make a list of "did you really pay attention to the games?" for RE fans because i saw someone say that RE7 had no bioweapons because RE7 had a file calling the e-series bioweapons in the salt mine and none of the zombies in RC are dead they're just rabid, the mold in Village being the only one of it's kind, it's the largest violent one but I doubt it's the only one just *slash* because of the abundance of herbage and one of Hound Wolfs comment (also ecocide? really?)

re7 has no bioweapons...the....the whole thing about eveline being made in a lab...a living creature being used as a weapon...the bio... weapon the.....

Could I request Lady D x Maid!reader where Alcina enjoys rewarding/embarrassing reader with a bunch of lipstick kisses whenever they do a good job/mess up?

Sugar Wine Kisses

Pairing: Lady Alcina Dimitrescu x Maid!reader(Ft: slight Jealous Heisenberg bcs I love me a jealous Heisenberg-)

(I love this request istg- but bcs gender wasn't specified this is GN!reader, I hope u don't mind!)

Some little backstory headcanons leading up to the main stuff from the request and a little fluff blurb

Warnings: Mentions of blood, death, kinda ooc?, dead bodies, explosions, resident evil village in itself is a warning-

• You first belonged to Heisenberg, as a friend of the Winters family Mother Miranda found you too useful to dispose of

• Heisenberg liked to take you to Miranda's meetings, that would be how Lady D met you

• She took an intruige to you mainly for your personality, you were the only one of Heisenberg's assistants who had the audacity to yell back at his antics, Lady D liked you for that and so you got along fast

• It was when Heisenberg blew up half his factory, and almost you in it, that Lady D knew it was time to step in

• When you arrived at Castle Dimitrescu you were IMMEDIATELY swarmed by the Dimitrescu girls asking you questions

• It's been two and a half years since Lady D moved you in, she had quickly made it clear you were to be treated differently from all the other slavesservants, you were always asked to sit in on Dimitrescu family dinners(you no longer have a reaction to dead bodies to say the least) and the many grand galas Alcina hosts and you were placed in a bedroom directly connected to the master bedroom

• Lady D LOVES dressing you, never once were you wearing the same clothes as the other servants except for the day you arrived, you were called to bring tea to her in a meeting with Donna(+Angie) and the moment you walked in you could just FEEL the sheer horror coming from Alcina- "WHAT...are you wearing. Never dress like this in my sight again." But when it was just the two of you...."Oh Sugar, do not wear such lowly clothes, you are better than that! No more lowering yourself to such a level, now try this on, it suits your complexion MUCH better!"

• If Lady D and Heisenberg had a bad relationship before then HAHA WHOOO BOY UR IN FOR ONE HELL OF A RIDE- Heisenberg will never admit it but you were the best assistant he had ever had, so when Alcina convinced Miranda that you weren't safe with him it was almost as if saying no to Veruca Salt and something snapped. Whenever Heisenberg shows up at the castle he always makes snide remarks to the Dimitrescu girls about how their mother "stole" you and how he should "return the favor" and "snatch up one of her pretty girls", he especially loves flirting with Cassandra(the most lovesick of the three) but he isn't the only one playing the mindgames as Alcina just LOVES to dress you up in your finest clothes when she hears Heisenberg will be there and parade you around like a prized dog

• You are to Alcina pretty much what Angie is to Donna, meaning you are always at her side including at the Lord's meetings with Miranda, at this point you are basically one of the lords via being an extension of Alcina and since Alcina is pretty much known to be Miranda's favorite you have had many interactions with her. During a particularly...loud meeting you were being very calm and quiet, listening intentively to Miranda's words as best as you could through all the screaming which led to this exact interaction- "SILENCE. Now can anyone tell me what I just said?" and you immediately repeated her words word for word "Wonderful human, now this is why you are my favorite"...I think you can guess what happened after that-

• The biggest shippers of you and Lady D are her daughters ofc! Around the half a year mark since you had started living there Cassandra confronted her mother, Cass being the most knowledgeable in love(she loves romance novels) told her mother to try rewarding you with a kiss to see your reaction, which did not disappoint-

• Having been working for Heisenberg for god knows how long before Alcina took you in meant that you haven't felt flesh on flesh contact in QUITE awhile leading to MAJOR touch starvation so when you finished cleaning the floors particularly quick one day and Lady D rewarded you with a kiss on the head let's just say you started...malfunctioning?- leading to her sending her daughters to kidnap a human from the village to come explain what tf was wrong with you

• Once she finds out what happened to you, and that it's not a bad thing, you can bet she does it SO OFTEN, she loves rewarding you with kisses, and cuddles if you officially get together, but she ESPECIALLY loves randomly kissing you for no reason, head, cheek, lips, she loves how red your face gets, almost blending in with the red lipstick marks, and the little squeaky sounds you make! Miranda meeting? Peck! A particularly big party? Peck! You're busy? Peck for the road! You're finally going to bed? Peck, peck, peck! No matter where, if you're there you will most likely get a kiss.

• It takes you SO LONG to wipe off all the kiss marks, ofc her lipstick had to be semi permanent, and once you finally get them off she's already putting new ones so you just stopped removing them after awhile, if you have to be around people you'll just put on some of Alcina's makeup over it

• One thing about Alcina is she lovessss her wine, but she also loves you, so I hope you like wine because this woman loves taking you into her winery and having little taste testing dates. The only catch? Why you taste them from her lips of course silly! She isn't going to be pouring two glasses Now, and she doesn't know your alcohol tolerance, so she takes a sip and gives you a kiss, sometimes with a bit of wine still in her mouth that she slips into yours, and by the time you come back from simpville she's already bombarding you with eager questions on the flavor, the intensity, would you like more?

Today was a long day already, you did NOT need another one of Alcina's spontaneous galas at the moment but you still put yourself together all nice for her. You felt you owed Lady D your life, and considering you used to work for Heisenberg...you probably did- so the least you could do was put on your best clothes and biggest fake smile for her.

You walked in and were immediately greeted by the loud and somewhat annoying cackling that you recognized all too well to be a quite drunk Heisenberg ranting off about his latest project. You groan and sigh at the spectacle that was your former boss before a large yet gentle hand grazes your back. "Sugar! I haven't seen you all day! How have you been?" Alcina smiles down at you as you smile tiredly up at her before she quite literally smothers you in kisses, picking you up almost crushingly in her strong arms and carrying you away to her table, eagerly rehashing her day as you two leave a seething Heisenberg watching from the corner.

Relationship archetype:

Jessica Rabbit X Roger Rabbit

Tall, stunning woman with a seductive allure and is stereotyped a player but loves her tiny partner to death X Tiny partner who doesn't know how they scored THAT but is SO not complaining

[jackienautism]

i rant about resident evil and their writing / inclusion of the girls.

i jsut want 2 girls to go on their fucked up little adventures together is that too much to ask

i finally got to the halfway point of code veronica X and GODDDD i fucking knew they were gonna do this goddamn shit w/ steve and claire. i knew from the goddamn beginning even if i didnt want to admoit it...... residetn evil just cant be normal w/ a girl being paired w/ a guy. they just fucking cant

i understand that this is seen more among the older games (ashley + leon from re4 as well) and i cant speak for the og re3 nemesis but the way they wrote carlos and jill? its just.... why make these male characters say such bizarre and degrading and just ? nasty comments towards the female protag? do you really expecvt us to root for them? i just dont fcuking undeerstand, and this occurs in a remake too! they didnt bother to maybe just maaaybe take that bulllshit out. because jill's uncomfortable. IM uncomfortable. its just. godddd who the fuck caaaares STOP THIS TROPE

you see this same thing w/ steve and claire.... not oonly is steve incredibly fucking annoying the first second we meet him, he also continually acts as a nuisance towards her for a good quarter of the game. yeah sure theyre just building up to the Ground Breaking Emo backstory drop later, but. you already made me fucking hate this loser so goddamn much meaning im not gonna give a single shit about his development later. I JUST DONT CARE FOR HIM !!!!!! THEM MAKING HIM SO ANNOYINH RUINED ANY CHANCE OF ME CHANGING MY MIDN LATER.......

and GOD havent even mentioned this yet but. when i saw the little preview thing w/ the 3 characters w/ claire + chris i saw [steve] and went.... [eyeballs] hello whos this? long story short i thoiught he was a butch lesbian and i got SO excite d b c residtn ebil has yet to pair a girl up w/ anothner girl around the same age but noooooo instead i got this pathetic loser of a man (derogatory). the closest we have to 2 girls being fucked up together is mia and zoe in re7. but thats like. mainly a side thing. and mia isnt even the protag so

which leads me to the next thng i wanted to talk about. i think mnmen are super cool ofc and i hate to be that Bitch and pull that Card but good freaking god why must there be a man FOR EVERY SINGLE FEMALE CHARACTER IN THIS GOD FORSAKEN SERIES...... andit woudlnt be huge deal if they were noraml w/ these pairings but theyre NOT..... THEY MAKE IT WEIRD EVERY SINGLE TIME..... STEVE LITERALLY ALMOST KISSES CLAIRE WHILE SHE'S ASLEEP........ CARLOS CONSISTENTLY MAKES UNNECESSARILY WEIRD COMMENTS TOWARD JILL......... ASHLEY RANDOMLY AWSKS FOR SEX AT THE END OF RE4............ WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT AOBUT? good for ashley for shooting her shot i guess though but considering yhe game's previous comments towards ashleu and her figure.... it was blatantly put in to sexualize her furtyher

maybe its thr lesbian in me popping out maybe its the aromantic in me popping out WHO KNOWS all i know is that. resident evil makes me very upset sometimes dflkgnjg i love the games i love the characters (esp the girls big surprise i know) but jesus christ. somethings i just can't ignore. and this is cerrtainly one of them. a girl just can't exist out of a guy according to capcom. and that sort of idea is suuuper evident in how they portray and include their women. you could have a girl protag (re3, recv etc) but theres always a 99% chance theres gonna be a man tagging along + continually saving their asses and theres almost alwaysa an even HIGHER chance that theyre meant to be seen as a romantic interest! and its exhausting@!!!!!

long story short . i get im not resident evil's target audience . but im still gonna be pissed and annoyed . the girls deserve better .

im def gonna have to go more in depth abt resident evil and their writing of relationships (or lack thereof) some other time but just for now. the best written ones are claire + sherry and mia + ethan goodbye

Weird ass Resident Evil head cannons because my brain is too silly

Wesker 100% got bullied by Chris and Jill when he was working with S. T. A. R. S. and cried at least once from it.

The moment Ashely got home she started crying to emo nightcore music while downing an entire pack of shredded cheddar cheese.

Luis definitely grabbed Leon's ass at least once whenever he bent down, then got the same treatment from Leon.

Leon purposefully coughs very dramatically in front of people who smoke to make them feel bad.

Chris has frequent nightmares about marrying Jill just for her to turn out to be Wesker in disguise. Every single time he has that nightmare he wakes up in a cold sweat with tears streaming down his face like he just saw the most horrifying thing know to man.

Rebecca has a penis straw some where in her house. It was a gift from Jill.

Wesker is horribly afraid of horses. Any time he sees a horse he starts running away as fast as he can. One time a horse smiled at him and he started screaming in terror.

The only reason Claire wears a ponytail is because one time when she was younger she went to a public pool with Chris and got her hair stuck in one of the drains and had to get a short hair cut. She was bullied about it for years by Chris.

Sherry is obsessed with Pokemon, especially when Leon first started working with the government since he got a bunch of money, and had a Pokemon themed bedroom. Her favourite Pokemon is Sylveon. Leon's is Pikachu because he's a dumb idiot who never saw the appeal and just wanted to make Sherry happy.

William was incredibly nerdy to the point where Annette would sometimes tape his mouth shut while they worked or else her infodump about each way to use a syringe/suture needle/any sort of medical shit they had to use. Albert didn't mind it when he rambled, though.

Chris once pranked Albert by switching his artificial sugars for his coffee with salt and hiding laxatives in it as well. Albert has never forgave him.

Jill once smacked Chris so hard he fell over and folded like an omelette. His spine has never recovered.

Leon was 100% a fan of Oingo Boingo and Weird Al. I will not explain any further.

Ada gets her nails done every other month by the same nail tech. Rebecca is secretly the nail tech.

Leon once accidentally sat on one of Sherry's Plush Charizards and got screamed at for an hour. Sherry said that she didn't want his "butt cooties" on her dragon.

Ashley loves cheese. Specifically brie.

Leon sometimes stares outside of the windows in his home while zoning out and standing completely straight. He also falls asleep like that with his eyes open. Chris will sometimes join him in watching the outside except he stands like a dad and does that thing where he has some sort of nut in his hands and shakes them around before eating them.

Chris wants to have kids, more specifically a daughter, so when Leon was on missions and Claire had to babysit her, he'd try to bond with Sherry. Sherry was horribly afraid of him and would cry if she was picked up by him.

Chris once smacked Wesker so hard his glasses went flying off. Wesker immediately got on the floor and started searching for them Velma style.

Leon unironicaly goes "YEOWCH!" whenever he gets hurt.

In the helicopter, Carlos slung his arm around Jill to try and be hot. It backfired once he realized Jill was both sleeping and drooling all over his arm. Ew.

Leon coughs like an old man on hospice.

Wesker sneezes like a kitten, especially during serious situations. He goes, "I'LL FUCKING END YOU-Achoo! (｡>﹏<｡)"

William once mistook Albert for Anette when he was incredibly tired and kissed Wesker on the lips. Neither were complaining.

This is so fucking dumb but please listen to my insane ramblings. PLEASE.
