There's 3 ways the entire Baker estate was built and I can't imagine any of them,

1. The Bakers hired a contractor who agreed to build several hidden walk ways behind walls, a mourge, a disection room, etc.

2. This lil old elderly couple built it all by hand SOMEHOW

3. Lucas built everything himself

I feel like this would be impossible ESPECIALLY with just a three year time gap between when Eveline arrived and Ethan showed up (Bc I can't think of a reason this older couple would just have a disection room)

There's just no genuine thing I could think of for how half of their stuff would be realistically built (I know it's just a game but the real world aspects rlly interest me)

Anyone else got any theorys on how it could have all been built?

Resident Evil 7 was So Flesh, Corruption, Web, Eye, Dark, Spiral, Stranger and Slaughter coded. All Ethan needs to start the apocalypse is a few more encounters and he can Start the apocalypse.

On Ethan Winters and the Baker Family, I think that their perspective is actually incredibly interesting for the franchise. While the rest of the main characters (and a lot of the side characters tbh) did live fairly normal lives before they were drastically effected by bio-terrorism in some way, they were pretty much all still in law enforcement/protection shit anyway. Like, in one way or another they were going to be putting their lives on the line and probably be traumatized by their work at some point.

However, Ethan was just a dude. He was this random fucking guy from LA and completely out of the sphere of general potential threat like that. He happened to marry a lady who was working with bioweapons, and even then he had zero fucking clue on any of it until he was thrown head first into the deep end. The Baker family had genuinely zero connections to bioweapons pre Eveline. Maybe they were a bit dysfunctional, or maybe they were super normal.

That vulnerability of him not having any real combat experience or training and the fear of having one's life fall apart is part of what made 7 so scary for me. That and it was incredibly interesting to see what happened to the Baker Family as well. It's both horrifying and heartbreaking to think that they were just trying to help a little girl and their lives were ruined because of it. That one act turned their home into a murder den and their family into literal monsters, simply because they were trying to be kind.

I know resident evil isn't exactly a franchise that's well known for its explorations into trauma in any real way, and the focus is on people actively in the field since that's where most of the action and horror happens, but I think Ethan and the Bakers open up a really good potential for perhaps more civilian perspective. We're shown time and time again that this shit will destroy cities, and yet we don't really have a game that focuses on civilians. It would be a great source of potential for horror to maybe explore more of those perspectives. There are many many ways this could be done that differ from Ethan's initial experience in 7 that combine both that classic RE survival horror and action.

However, I'm very aware that this likely will not happen. Still, it's a nice thought.

the baker incident is so-, had jack and marguerite baker not been corrupted and driven crazy by the mold they would've spoiled eveline rotten, eveline was so scared of rejection that she removed their choice not knowing they would've become her family of their own accord in a heartbeat, she was so risk averse it makes me wonder about all the things they did to her before the boat ride, how many of her decisions sprouted from the limited knowledge of a child vs how many were derived from the mania the mold seems to give almost everyone

The anon here for miri the tired studhorse

I was a brave boy(girl)

Done watching the main story of resi 7

Did not expect that plot twist :0

Accidentally stumbled upon art for resident lover

And 👀👀👀

I-

Gay

Who is Donna?

Also cassandra-

I-

I simp....

Hi!

Proud of ya. ;3

With "plot twist" you mean the Bakers (well, except for Lucas) being just as innocent as Ethan? Yeah, it´s a tragedy. They were a normal family once. A happy one. 😢

If you´re interested in seeing their stories come to their actual end, I recommend playing/watching the DLCs:

Not a Hero (continues Lucas´ story)

End of Zoe (continues Zoe´s and Jack´s story)

It´s nothing crucial or necessary going into Resi Village, but it´s nice to bring everything full circle.✌️

.

As for Resident Lover-

Gay is a most fitting term, lmao.

It´s a fan-game that came out shortly after Village. Everyone´s gay and simping for MC. Highly recommend. ❤️‍🔥👍

.

As for Donna and Cassandra-

You´ll meet them soon enough. 😉

Thanks for your ask! 💋

A father's day picture with the kiddos.

Just realized everyone has a tail in this picture.

Des is finally getting that facial hair he wanted after so long.

And OH COME ON! The camera caught Grant's Lenses, we gotta do the picture over, YES this is the 5oth time it's gotta be perfect!

[delicatebluebirdruins]

go tell aunt rhody

that every bodies dead. is such a good song and well every body is dead or close to it in RE7

Mia drowned in the Annabelle it was destroyed on Oct 5th she was unconcious in the sea and she/ Evie weren't found by the Bakers until the 10th

Ethan though I'd argue he was infected before being stamped on by Jack (because he let out his death scream when Mia chopped his hand off)

Jack stabbed himself in daughters after trying to drown Marguerite

MY RE VINYL PINS ARE UP ON MY ETSY!! ik i posted about these awhile ago but i got better photos so...yeah!!

[seraphdesire]

In response to this, I just wanted to say (with absolutely no hate/negativity to this person) that biohazard just... wasn't it.

Sending apologies to everyone who liked the game but I really didn't like 7. I hesitate to say things like "loathe" or "hate" even though that is how I feel about them, because I might like it later on down the line.

I don't dislike it because it was "scary" - actually it wasn't the least bit scary to me. I found it boring, dull, a little confusing at times, and frustrating because the game doesn't exactly tell you how to do things other than the basics. It wasn't particularly fear-inducing to me though. I wasn't able to finish it because I was having to force myself to want to play it - I'm here for the fun, not for serious hardcore no-saves speedruns or whatever.

I think one of the few things I liked about the short amount of re7 that I played was the fact that you could use the axe to smash up the mannequins and boxes lol, even if it gave you nothing. I'm aware (as a good friend of mine told me), that the mannequins move so perhaps that's why they're breakable.

But overall? I don't like it. I wouldn't recommend it to people who want to play the series, especially when you can skip biohazard and go straight from 6 to 8 without needing to play 7 to fully understand what's going on. Like, as long as you know the very basic lore of 7, I don't think you even have to consider playing it at all.

Again, all personal opinions, if you like the game that's totally fair and I'm glad you found enjoyment out of it!!! ^^

I absolutely love Ethan as an RE protagonist. I don't know why but his character just feels so much more realistic compared to the others. The panicked way he responds to things, the utter confusion, the sheer fear, and the fact that he's basically only running on adrenaline and pushing through because of it.

The way he loses two fingers and half a hand, and just pours chem fluid on it and keeps going. The way those hooks were embedded in his palms and he just ripped them off and kept going. The fact that he's literally only able to keep going and not collapse from blood loss due to his emotions. All to save his baby. So much so that he actually ends up giving his life just to rescue her - his determination shows how great of a father he truly is.

Village is truly a terrifying game, I'd argue it incorporates way more aspects of horror in it than the others. Capcom did a fantastic job with it.

DC x DP Fanfic: Family bonding.

The Waynes, for all of their proclamation of being some of the best detectives in the world, missed the signs that one of their own was dating. Usually, that wouldn't have been so shocking, except that the person who dating made a point to tell the group he was dating.

He also somehow always stayed friends with his exes. Which was a superpower of its own, if they are honest, because not a single one of them was bitter about the relationship ending with Dick.

Another thing unusual about Dick having a lover was that he never brought them around or was seen in public with them. If anything, it felt like Dick was trying to keep the relationship a secret.

Which went against everything he cared about when dating someone.

That's why Bruce fully believed that the secret was being enforced by his partner. So it was up to the Waynes to find out who this mysterious lover was and evaluate if they were good enough for Dick.

So on a Friday night, when Dick was allegedly tutoring underprivileged kids but was actually meeting up with his lover, the Waynes piled into a shabby-looking minivan and followed.

It was cramped. It was dented, and it had tinted windows. Most importantly, the minivan belonged to John Constantine, who hadn't used it in over twenty years after learning to portal from one place to another.

Dick would never realize it was them.

"I think this is a terrible idea," Jason grunts from the back seat. He crosses his arms, refusing to pick up the binoculars Tim had passed around earlier. "Dick is a fully grown man. He knows how to properly talk to his partner about what he wants in a relationship."

"Shut up, virgin," Damian hisses from the passenger seat. He won the right to sit there after breaking Steph's skin with his teeth. Bruce had allowed them to brawl for a few minutes until Damian emerged victorious. He also let her use his phone to schedule a rabies shot, keeping eye contact with Damian in the rearview mirror. "Just because you never had a girlfriend-"

"-or a boyfriend. You fail to seducing both." Cass cut in from around her binoculars. She fist-bumped Tim as Jason threw her an offended look.

"Thank you, Cassandra. Ultimately, you have no experience and thus can not comment on what to do in relationships." Damian concluded.

"Neither do you!"

"Yes, but I am a child." Damian waves his hand in Jason's general direction. "It's expected of me to not have any romantic experience. You, on the other hand, are a loser."

"Unless you are Asexual or Aromantic," Bruce pipes in, leaning a little against the steering wheel, attempting to get a better view of the apartment building that Dick had walked into. He wasn't going up to any of the actual units; he remained in the lobby. "Then you are the are not a loser. But rather the closest thing to godhood."

"B, we know gods."

"That's why I said closest."

Thankfully, the lobby had huge windows. Dick was speaking to the receptionist, leaning on the counter with a little smile, and the man was grinning back.

However, Dick hasn't touched his hair even once. This was not the secret lover. This was a fool falling for Dick's charms, probably someone involved with a crime.

Ugh, so dull.

Jason crossed his arms stubbornly "I can get a date. I'm just busy."

"Doing what? Reading romance novels?" Steph laughs. Jason opens his mouth to yell at her, but the receptionist hands Dick a golden key that the eldest Wayne pockets. He strides out of the apartment complex, hands in his pocket and whistling joyfully.

The Wayns put away their binoculars, and Bruce carefully peels out of their parking spot. They keep a nice distance away from Dick as he scrolls around the stores, stopping every once in a while to admire a display before he sits on a bench, hand still inside the pocket with the key.

A person wearing a trench coat and thick sunglasses approaches the bench, sitting on the far end of it and not looking in Dick's direction. The van collectively gasps.

Despite the disguise, they can tell just who it is.

"Tatior," Jason hisses between clenched teeth as Duke slides a sealed brown package across the bench towards Dick. In return, the eldest places the key on the bench, back top, and strives away from the bench. Duke waits a few minutes before he stands, walking in the opposite direction of Dick, hand sliding out to grab the key nearly undetectable.

"Why does Duke need an apartment key? And one that was snuck to him," Tim asks, watching the two siblings walk away from each other as though they were strangers. "What's he up to?"

" We only have time for one family mystery today," Bruce answers, turning the wheel to the left and continuing to follow Dick. "I have dinner plans with Selina later."

Duke pulls out a red wig and slides off his coat. Underneath is a punk rock outfit, complete with spikes, the coat he throws into the trash and clicks his boots. Four-inch heels pop out from his shoes, and Duke struts out of sight.

Tim leans against the windows, face and palms against the glass, eyes wide. "Wait. Wait. I have so many questions. B, turn around!"

"Dinner plans, Tim!"

"But B!"

Damian points. "Look! Richard is twirling his hair! The harlot draws near."

Steph laughs, patting Tim's back, who is straining hard to open the door. Thankfully, Bruce was quick enough to press the child lock. "I love the way you talk, Dames. It's like a period piece villain escaped the TV."

"Thank you, Brown. I enjoy your existence as well." Damian smiles, pressing the binoculars against his face. "Oh."

Bruce's grip on the wheel tightens. He had chosen to stay really far behind Dick once the man had walked into a narrow street, making it harder to blend into the traffic. "What is Damian?"

"You will not like it, Father," Damian says lowly. Behind him, Steph and Tim also reach for their spying gear. Jason and Cass were grimacing from the back seat, one taking pictures and the other working on getting the listening device's antenna out the crack of the window to aim at Dick.

Bruce's knuckles turn white as he steeled his resolve. "Go on. I can take it. What do you see?"

"It's Danny Fenton." Tim, Steph, and Damian all say at the same time. "The person he is dating in secret is Danny Fenton."

Bruce felt his heart stop. "The man who makes bread in the shape of hero logos?"

"Yeah. Otherwise known as "The Happy Baker," Steph says gravely. "The only Gothamite who is unreasonably happy without drugs or Joker venom."

"I once saw him making up songs while setting out a display of animal-shaped bread. He rhymed Gotham with awesome." Tim practically spits. "I should have known. All those animals were circus-themed. The elephants were incredibly tasty."

"You bought some!?"

"Excuse me for being hungry B!"

Damian slaps Bruce's arm aggressively. "Father! Father! Richard is getting on one knee."

"WHAT?!"

Jason pressed one hand over his headphones and attempted to listen closer before his eyes widened. "Wait! It's not a real marriage. Dick's investigating a possible trafficking ring, who been using Gotham baking supplies as a cover. He wants Danny to help him infiltrate the front by pretending to be baking husbands!"

"He just asked him to get married," Jason reported, much to the horror of the general van. Cass' camera starts clicking aggressively, either to capture the moment or have something to hang over Dick's head and force him to call off his marriage.

It's hard to tell with her perfectly impassive expression.

"Oh, thank the gods." Bruce breathes, only to have Steph ruin the moment.

"They're frenching right now."

"Oh, come on!"

"This is fun," Cass says over Bruce, swearing under his breath. "We should spy on each other as a group more often."

"Can we find out what Duke is up to next? The heels will haunt me until I know everything." Tim pipes up.

Damian, Tim, and Steph do not lower their binoculars even though they are close enough that they become a nuisance rather than helpful. He hasn't seen them so engaged in a family outing in a long time. "Yeah, we can spy on Duke next."

There is a moment of silence as Bruce considers the request before he merges lanes. In doing so, they drive by the kissing couple, too caught up in each other to notice the people staring at them through spying gear.

"You're the best adoptive dad ever!" Tim cheers as the rest of the kids let out whoops. Fenton's ears twitch, breaking the kiss with Dick to look right at them over their eldest shoulder.

Bruce slams a foot on the pedal the second Cass starts yelling, "Go go go! He saw us!". They peel away, screaming while Dick throws them a finger, and Fenton laughs silently.

The happy little freak.
