#and she has chemistry with all of them just asexual kind of chemistry lmao idk how to explain it but it's different
[This post really doesn’t make sense but you should deffo have some experience with the game Resident Evil 2 : Biohazard (2019) -- here’s a short livestream of the 30-minute demo by some cool video journalists and a H U G E L Y Y influential horror gamer’s video of the demo, as well. (And here’s a favourite artist who is probably the very one you can blame for me wasting your time/gushing sm lol...) ]
Input/commentary is sincerely, absolutely, and aggressively, encouraged! ! 
Leon Scott Kennedy is nooooooooooot supposed to be any heterosexual woman`s fantasy because he is bisexual let me get into it
👉 First like the whole thing with Ada manipulating him? 
GOLD
but it’s unfair to Leon who’s actually incredibly...human?
And the other thing is that (and I probably have made it really clear) Resident Evil and the fandom are so ... weird and racist but I like seeing all the changes from the remake as well as (to a lesser degree) backtracking through the games where Leon’s appeared
I love seeing him in 2019 being completely off-the-bat friendly towards Claire and then flirting -- and it being okay with me???? I went ahead and looked up tags on here and @/mikaeled had a drawing of the RE 2 protagonists 
The first protagonist, Claire, is drawn with the bi flag colours
The second protagonist, Leon, got the ace flag
THAT made me want to tap into fandom a little bit more and I went on Twitter and Pixiv and got to see some weird fantasies of being a really controlling Leon but on the other hand saw amazing depictions of Claire being in a loving relationship with a Leon whose kindness lined up with my first exposure of him. (The other day I had a similar experience looking up lesbian/bi claire redfield on this hellsite and someone wrote that Claire is a lesbian -- big big yes -- but added in the tags that “Leon is a trans bi guy!”)
So.
Why not get into it a bit while I’m overcaffeinated?
👉 Leon and Ada is ... weird and people can read weird, bad things into it especialllllllllly if you consider “yellow fever” but it can also be smth super cute where a bi guy and a really cool girl he meets allows him to survive the events of RE 2 (1998) because she is literally mourning the death of her boyfriend in Umbrella. I think that Capcom unbeknownst to their demonic loudmouth staff have created some really thoughtful chances for representation and that helped them get so big--so Ada and Leon are good
But like...
Claire is right there! Leon and Claire become friends like that and tbh they make my bisexual heart melt as individuals. As a couple I feel hope imagining the ways they’d buck the trend of alienation and the threat of abuse...I feel like I care nothing for the fandoms, the creators, and even a majority of the games’ plot points, but here Leon and Claire are, making me feel so much pride because they show that there’s a way for men and women to be ... healthy while in love. They’re the couple that’d be great peer parents (Shirley is a big part of their game they’re protagonists of, and I love how she is written both in 1998 and 2019 which parallels how Moira Burton is written--and completely diverges from the tragedy of the pigeonholey writing of Ashley Graham) and then while they’re wonderful supports to Shirley and are intimately “””together””” in many aspects of life I believe that they’re the type to not even date because the intimate devotion and protection or sticktoitiveness of a friendship ends up building first, because it matters more. Which is not to say that when they do get into a relationship it’s anything but one that is rare.
It’d be r.a.r.e.!!
look at this ... fucked me up 
👉 In regards to this rare kind of love, the key isn’t sympathy or understanding and cooperation even through struggles ranging from PTSD to personality clashes through the years, nor is it chemistry and attractiveness (yeah I will go on record that they’re for better or worse based off of Caucasian models who are paid to be taken pictures of in real life and it fucking shows like I’d be a dishonest bisexual if not just a bad bisexual if I said I didn’t wanna ram both of them into a mattress shut up).To me it’s how Claire is as much of a hero as a typical Die Hard movie hero and YET no more of a hero compared to Leon who is, very clearly, atypical. That’s the biggest part. I love the atypicality. Leon’s seen as hot but approachable and even “a little baby who’s an incompetent rookie cop” but he isn’t... the usual cop, a.k.a. a batt*rer and a **pist and a vio*ent threat and a pig... He’s known to be a soft kind person in the remake.... so to me... 
I love him for Claire but I love the possibility that Leon Scott Kennedy’s bi and gender-nonconforming, and asexual (being demisexual) and not-cisgender and completely proud. I love that he could be this and he IS as good as this ...and he supports lesbians and bi women and alll trans and gnc and nb people unequivocally, maybe,,? Yes? Sbshshdjdjd 
Granted this is all a LOT. Let me defend myself and say that perhaps this is a hyperfixation for me but I’m the type that likes to mix into some of the emotions a tiny nugget of logic so let me make the disclaimer that, ya boi isn't an easy 'n convenient character that's hot into which I as a reader can insert myself... For me I’ve pieced something together that brings comfort and makes some sense. I like to think that he is a survivor of gay-bashing, ostracization, financial abuse, emotional abuse, ****, humiliation, public threats, familial bullshit such as custody battles and gaslighting and is transgender but he’s proud... he’s proudly trans and perhaps he is touchaverse and in terms of sexuality is bi/pansexual while in terms of who he has dated before it’s very messy as he is very aggressively misandrist and hates men and perhaps he’s very stone when he is in a mewd -- and perhaps transphobia makes him go into a rage and he has actually gotten in lots of trouble before as a kid which came back to bite him and he’s lost family and found family and best friends and the loss really hurt and made his choice to go to police academy ring hollow by the end of his training and made him a big believe in social justice and in defending people who society left behind and in therapy and self-change and in accountability (he ISN’T a selfinsert prOMISE!!) but he’s been through a lot aaaaaaaa lotttttt like idk hes just a dude sure
he’s just a dude.b,ut theres a reason zombies don;t faze him!
LOVE THAT. That part.
👉 to sum up: i support the remake fans not being uncritical and loving on the cast of characters and leon specifically! there’s a reason he recently bucked the trend of masculinity and (21 years of fandom and 21 years of problematic annoying fans, perhaps also writers, aside) has always been objectifiable, that is, seen as hot/a sidepiece/specifically desirable for women--but just /: not /: women /: as in /: Women slash str8s /: . . . .RETCH lmao he’s a gun toting hero that is very atypical but not in a disempowering manner -- rather, in an empathetic and emotional one and I want to see the RE2 protagonists heal through a life changing care and tender friendship rather than bonding through liferuining catastrophes 💓💓💓but what I am trying to say in the end is that they are so inspiring both together and as individual protegonists due to their abiliy to weather thru struggles that I as a qtwoc immigrant in America can identify with🤧 
[📍]  tl;dr   -- - 💓cute pan pew pew man is loving and cute ! :> also claire is 💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓 so cute...........................pls support/refute my theory

ANSWER THE FOLLOWING FOR YOUR MUSE(S) SO PEOPLE KNOW HOW SHIPPING WORKS ON YOUR BLOG. REPOST. DON’T REBLOG.
WHAT’S YOUR OTP FOR YOUR MUSE?: I’m always a slut for RusAme, but lowkey some of my other favorites are RusTurk, RusGer, and RusEng listen I’m trash but RusEng is so Good and I’m outraged but I am single ship and also taken
WHAT ARE YOU WILLING TO RP WHEN IT COMES TO SHIPPING?: I’m single-ship when it comes to my muses so tbh it makes shipping with me hard I guess, in general if I’m going to ship with you at all we gotta be friends?? I just cannot ship with someone I don’t know like it would be so awkward for me and I never understood how people do it. I guess I can’t really do smut because I laugh when I have to talk about dicks I’m sorry I’m really still a child I can’t handle that. obvious things like incest and pedophilia I also won’t do lmao
HOW LARGE DOES THE AGE GAP HAVE TO BE TO MAKE IT UNCOMFORTABLE?: if person b could be person a’s grown child then that’s just really uncomfortable and I can’t rp it-- that’s kind of fast and loose because nations and aging are weird and depend on a bunch of factors and history and stuff but I guess generally speaking that’s my standard? in the context of personifications ngl I kind of just go off of physical age with that rule but most muses aren’t any older than thirty or something so
ARE YOU SELECTIVE WHEN SHIPPING?: I... don’t think so? I don’t know like tbh if we’re friends ooc and I have a muse that’s not already taken then anything’s possible as long as the muse in question will have it they just kind of do what they want anyways and I write it
HOW FAR DO STEAMY MOMENTS HAVE TO GO BEFORE THEY’RE CONSIDERED NSFW?: WHEN THE DICKS COME OUT I’M OUT I CAN’T DO IT I’M SORRY I’M VERY ASEXUAL AND IT’S JUST SO AWKWARD FOR ME THAT IT’S PHYSICALLY PAINFUL HHHHNN
WHO ARE OTHER MUSES YOU SHIP YOUR MUSE WITH?: well I’ve been shipping Ivan here with Toma’s (@annuitcoeptis ) Alfred for, uh... idk they’ve been together for three years but really this has been going on for four at this point I wanna say? They’re kind of broken up atm but it’s chill since we’re gonna get them back together anyways
if I wasn’t already taken then NGL IVAN AND AMY (@hailcolumbia) HAVE SOME PRETTY SICK CHEMISTRY SO THERE’D PROBABLY BE SOMETHING GOING ON THERE but there’s not just a lot of punching each other and stuff and also I could probably ship Amy and Oksana too she just doesn’t come out very often
also these aren’t romantic ships but Ivan’s platonic/familial ships also kind of kill me but it’s a good kind of killing I think @t3485 @saditsya @pannazsinihkvetak
DOES ONE HAVE TO ASK TO SHIP WITH YOU?: tbh since we’re gonna be friends anyways if I’m shipping with you and the muse isn’t already taken or something and things just go that way on their own then I’m perfectly okay with that in fact I kind of like it better because it feels more natural somehow so no not necessarily-- obviously if I don’t know you and you’re interested in shipping with one of my muses then yeah pls ask I’d appreciate it
HOW OFTEN DO YOU LIKE TO SHIP?: I do like an occasional ship once in a while like you kno they don’t happen a whole lot because well Ivan is a fucker and the whole single ship thing but I enjoy what I have I guess
ARE YOU MULTISHIP?: I am not tbh the farthest I’ll go with that is discussing past possible historical ties but I’m very singleship I’m afraid. which I mean I guess if I had other muses there’s the possibility they could be multiship if it went with their personalities--for example my Ukr.aine could probably go that route and be fine maybe-- but with Ivan he’s naturally very possessive and jealous and there is just no way with his personality he could be multiship oops
ARE YOU SHIP OBSESSED OR SHIP MORE-OR-LESS?: I wouldn’t call myself obsessed but when I get into something I kind of tend to stick to it pretty hard so I really enjoy my existing ships however it’s not the reason I do this so if it happens then it happens and that’s pretty cool like I love the ships I’ve got obviously but in the grand scheme of things I don’t end up with many new ones and I’m fine with that the ones I have are enough 
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE SHIP IN YOUR CURRENT FANDOM?: OKAY LISTEN,,.. LISTEN I REALLY LOVE RUSAME AND I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED RUSAME AS LONG AS I’VE BEEN IN THIS FANDOM which is too fucking long rip AND I’VE BEEN THROUGH THE SHIT WITH THIS SHIP BACK WHEN YOU’D GET HATE FOR IT AND CERTAIN PEOPLE STILL LIKE TO PISS ON IT BECAUSE IT’S 2017 AND THEY HAVEN’T FIGURED OUT TO JUST LET PPL DO AS THEY DO BUT NOWADAYS IT’S MUCH MORE POPULAR AND IT MAKES ME HAPPY AND RUSAME MAKES ME HAPPY AND I COULD TALK ABOUT IT FOR A LONG TIME BECAUSE IT’S SO COMPLEX AND BECAUSE I’M TRASH AND I JUST. LISTEN. I LOVE RUSAME A LOT
FINALLY, HOW DOES ONE SHIP WITH YOU?: if you’re willing to put up with my awful self and be my friend then we could probably work something out like the ship doesn’t necessarily have to be romantic I’m open to other platonic and/or familial ships or what have you just hmu
TAGGED BY: @marching-man lux pulling me out of my isolation cave yet again what would I do without u <3
TAGGING: uh idk what’s going on I haven’t been here in a while so @annuitcoeptis @hailcolumbia @t3485 @pannazsinihkvetak @viltismanedar @severnayastolitsa @atobylotak @kwiecista @sokrovennyi  @thoushallfadenothere @pardessustout and u if u wanna steal it that’s fine
