Imagine having a naked lady on 2 VERSIONS (02 & 06) of your special key as well as around the entire castle and NOT being a raging lesbian.

I refuse to believe this woman isn't the sole definition of fruity.

A Mother’s Love (A RE8 story) Chapter 1: The Dimitrescu Sisters

Summary: Alcina Dimitrescu is blessed with three beautiful daughters to call her own. It takes blood, sweat, and tears to raise the girls alongside having to deal with the rest of her peculiar little ‘family’. But when a jealous Mother Miranda tasks her with every mother’s greatest nightmare, will Alcina have to disobey her in order to protect her daughters? Chapter: 1/8 Word count: 4.611 

‘’A mother’s love neglects all pride the way fire neglects the cries of what it burns.’’ – Ocean Vuong

‘’I may be just a mother, but when someone touches my baby, the lioness in me awakens.’’ – My own mom <3

Four days since treatment

All three bodies have almost been completely consumed by the insects. All that is left is a dark, writhing human-shaped mass of creatures.

Lady Dimitrescu looked up from the notebook she was writing in. Three female bodies were laid out on a table in front of her. Or rather, what was left of them. She reached out and dug the opposite end of the pen into the mass of flies. When she retracted it, the tip was covered in a disgusting, pulpy liquid. Some of the flies had grabbed onto the pen and Alcina impatiently shook them off.

FUCKING KNEW IT

Sogno by Francesco Paolo Tosti lyrics

This is a loves song about a woman and, and the song is on her opera hall... So, apparently, she was in love with a woman.

How to say subtextually that your female villain was in love with a woman: put an opera song about it in your game.

Italian: Ho sognato che stavi a ginocchi Come un santo che prega il Signor Mi guardavi nel fondo degli occhi Sfavillava il tuo sguardo d'amor.

English: I dreamed you were on your knees like a Saint who prays to the Lord, you looked at me in the back of my eyes your gaze of love sparkled.

Italian: Tu parlavi e la voce sommessa Mi chiedea dolcemente mercè Solo un guardo, che fosse promessa Imploravi, curvata al mio piè.

English: You were speaking and the soft voice gently asked me for mercy, just a gaze, that was a promise you begged, bent at my foot.

Italian: Io taceva e coll'anima forte Il desio tentatore lottó Ho provato il martirio e la morte Pur mi vinsi e ti dissi di no.

English: I was silent and with my strong heart the tempting desire fought. I've experienced martyrdom and death, yet I won myself and said to you “no”.

Italian: Ma ilo tuo labbro sfiorò la mia faccia E la forza del cor mi tradí Chiusi gli occhi, ti stesi le braccia.

English: But your lip brushed my face and the strength of my heart betrayed me, I closed my eyes, stretched out my arms to you.

Resident Evil Science: Temperature

In which I look into the biology factors of the Dimitrescu daughters being made out of insects and create headcanons for them that are so deep and in-depth that they couldn't be any farther from canon.

This episode: the girls and temperature!

Overall

They are quite literally cold-blooded and unable to generate their own body heat. Because of this, they would be ectotherms.

We all know they are weak to temperatures under 50°F, but they are also vulnerable to temperatures over 100°F, similar to how flies are.

Because they can't thermoregulate, their normal body temperature tends to fluctuate with their environment, but the usual for them is around 70°F. So their skin is very cold to the touch.

Their ideal temperature is 85°F.

Cold

They sleep more in winter. Alcina calls this "diapause" and she has dubbed it as a form of hibernation in her notes on her girls, though they don't actually do a long-term hibernation--not normally, at least.

During diapause, their metabolic activity decreases. Because of this, their appetite goes down as well, as they don't really have the energy to digest their food.

Because, despite being inside, I imagine it's still quite cold for them while in the middle of a Romania winter. Again: they can't regulate their body temperature. It won't be the same for them as it is for us. I don't think being in a house, out of the wind and snow, will instantly make them have a comfortable temperature.

But they usually eat very little at this time. Sometimes they go a full day without eating anything, though they'll still drink blood, which they get most of their energy from.

Winter is also where they use their acid vomit the most because sometimes they're just too tired to chew. They rather regurgitate, drink, then go back to sleep.

They can sometimes sleep for eighteen hours a day.

Winter can be very lonely for Alcina at times. It's also eerily quiet.

Cassandra once slept for four days in a row without waking up and Alcina thought she fucking died.

It's really hard to wake them up during diapause. They go into this state of deep sleep in a way. Like, during the Comatose Cassandra incident, Alcina was full-on shaking Cassandra and screaming in her face in a panic, but Cassandra just snoozed on.

Moderately low temperatures make them sleepy.

Very low temperatures cause physical pain, as we see in the game.

Being in extreme cold can make them shiver, but it's not the same way we shiver.

Instead of their muscles contracting to generate thermal energy, it's their fly bodies violently gyrating and buzzing in a vain attempt to get warm, thus causing tremors throughout the body. Unlike normal shivering, however, they get nothing out of this and are unable to produce proper heat.

Heat

Whereas in the winter they slow down and eat less, during the summer they speed up and eat more.

Sleeping hours reduce down to the normal amount, but they can sometimes become fidgety and sleep even less due to a build-up of energy.

In the mornings, they often have a period of sunbathing at their windows to reach a desired thermal optimum, which will give them energy for the rest of the day.

The first few days after winter ends are usually characterized by constant zoomies around the castle because their metabolism suddenly shoots back up and they're full of all this vigor.

They also eat. A lot.

The girls gorge themselves on literally anything they can find to make up for all that time spent without eating.

The maids call this the "feeding frenzy" and it is a very scary time for them because at any moment they could be grabbed and devoured while still alive.

Even when this "feeding frenzy" eventually goes down, they still eat a lot more during the summer months.

Unfortunately, the heat isn't always their safe place.

Similar to the cold, too much heat can be damaging to their bodies, as it won't be able to regulate itself when comfortable becomes uncomfortable.

And even more similar to the cold, they become sluggish when they get too hot.

Fatigue sets in at around 90°F, which is when their metabolism will begin to lower. They will start to eat less and become slower and lethargic rather than just sleepy like in the cold. Moving becomes like a chore and their body gets heavy.

95°F is when discomfort really comes into play. Their breathing shallows and their muscles begin to ache with the exertion of moving. Their body is heavy and slow to respond to movements. Dizziness starts, usually accompanied by ear ringing and double vision.

Anything over 100°F is painful, like how the cold hurts them. Their skin will begin to dry out and flake off, as though they were shedding their exoskeleton. They feel like they're burning from the inside.

They will also begin to "sweat," which doesn't actually cool them down like it would for a human. It just makes them dehydrated and sticky.

Fevers

Obviously because they can't produce excessive body heat, the girls are unable to get fevers on normal occasions. They can, however, get them in two different ways.

One: Behavioral fever.

Despite the actual symptom, they still feel the effects it causes, like dizziness, weakness, fatigue, body aches, trembling, and chills.

Chills usually come up when whatever sickness they have is Really Bad because something like that isn't usual for them. Chills is the feeling of being cold even when it isn't necessarily cold--but they shouldn't be able to make their bodies feel something like that without an actual external source. So it's pretty worrying.

But without the actual heat from a fever, the bacteria inside of them is free to run rampant.

Additionally, their immune system won't do anything, as it isn't stimulated by the fever.

So when they get this feeling, they know something is most likely wrong with them, so they have to do a behavioral fever, which is what cold-blooded creatures do when unwell.

They crawl into a scalding hot bath to wake up their immune system to actually start fighting the infection.

The heat from the water will essentially mimic the effects of a fever and then induce one inside of them, heating up their core.

The second way is through their flies.

Basically, their flies will realize something is wrong and essentially be like "don't worry, Boss, we gotchu."

They will then begin to furiously generate heat through excessive flying and buzzing, as flight does create thermal energy. This is actually the response used in the cold, which causes the “shivering,” but in a moderate climate, it actually works, heating up the body.

This then filters into their human bodies in the form of a fever, warming them up like coals in a furnace. They can even slightly feel the flies doing their work, usually from tingling in their fingers, toes, and orifices.

This process can only be done in certain climates, which is why it doesn’t work in the cold.

And because it is supposed to be a response for something different, the “shivering” symptom of a fever will occur.

However, if either created fever becomes to high, then the girls will start to hurt, especially if it goes over the 100°F mark.

So it's honestly a double-edged sword.

Temperature Regulation

They have to rely on their environment to warm up or cool down since their bodies cannot do so themselves.

For both the cold and the heat, the best go-to solution is a bath. It's the quickest, easiest, and most effective way to help. It's relaxing, too!

However, there are other options, of course.

For the cold, one of their favorite options is to snuggle with their mother. Unlike them, Alcina still produces body heat, so curling up in her side or lap will warm them right up. Plus, sharing body heat is the most effective solution to defrosting.

They will also spend a lot of time by the fireplaces or wrapped in blankets. It isn't uncommon for them to have dozens of covers on their beds and still be chilly.

They wear more layers (i see you, Capcom, stupidly making them wear a dress with their tits hanging out just to get in some more fan service even though it was fucking winter time and they should be more covered up)

They will huddle together for warmth.

They may try to fly more often to get their muscles working, as insects can create a tiny amount of thermal energy while in flight.

And for the heat, there isn't too much they can do, really. It isn't the same. The best thing to do is stay adequately moisturized.

They wear looser clothes. It helps some.

Alcina makes sure they're hydrated. It's very easy for them to become thirsty because their version of hot is literally a human's regular body temperature--even below it.

They like to stay in the cooler areas of the castle, so the basement.

They will sometimes become nocturnal, sleeping through the hotter hours of the day and staying awake during the cooler ones.

Just being in moisture, like lukewarm baths, will usually be enough for them--unless their temperature raises too high.

TLDR: no weather is suitable for these poor girls

[dumpling-kun]

This probably isn't it, but it may be because Donna is her (confirmed) adopted daughter? I know they're all technically her adoptive kids, but from my knowledge, Donna is the only one to be explicitly described as "Mother Miranda's adoptive daughter." Even though Miranda, also, most likely doesn't give a shit about her, my poor baby.

STOP IT, I CAN'T TAKE ANY MORE CRYING SESSIONS 😭

I was thinking back on when the Village demo came out and a lot of people theorized that Eva was a Dimitrescu daughter who had died, because of how her name fit into the ABCD pattern. And it was then I realized that Alcina must have known about Eva and Miranda's plan. After all, even Moreau was aware that resurrection of her true child was what Miranda was after. So technically the name Eva precedes the three daughters, right?

And then this wild scenario came to me. Alcina was so on-board with being Eva's stepmother that she named her own newly-acquired daughters so that the family tree would be alphabetical.

Imagine if the whole reason she had that crib was because she was certain Miranda and her would be a happy little family once the ceremony was over and her so-called “siblings” were discarded. As far as she knew, they were the failures - her condition was merely a setback Miranda would soon fix, and then all would be perfect. She would be recognized as special.

Miranda must have surely noticed this and been like “It’s a bit much, no?”.

I mean, chances are this was just a coincidence or that the names were based off the Mutamycete models from RE7, but I do find it curious how the ABCDE pattern is a thing.
