FINALLY updated my RE5 reimagined fic! Chapter 5 is up now!

"The figure stood silent, not moving a muscle. Even their breathing seemed to be too quiet, as if they had fallen asleep standing up. “Well?” Excella asked once again, raising her brows expectantly. She waited another moment. Still nothing. Then, her puzzled expression was replaced with her signature smirk. “You know, I used to envy you,” she admitted, stepping a bit closer. “Oh sure, we have our fun, but he’s different with you. You’re his right hand man, so to speak.”

The figure continued standing there like a statue, seemingly unphased, until they finally spoke up once more. In a voice quiet enough to almost be stifled by the mask, they repeated, “I do as I’m told.”

“Hmm,” Excella pondered, still assuming what expression her companion wore under the outfit, if they emoted at all. “Let’s see if you’re still as stoic when our guests see what else we have in store for them. It’ll be a nice test to see just how well your…enhancements are working.” Then, with her curiosity sated, Excella turned away and continued down the hallway toward the labs. The cloaked figure didn’t follow her right away, remaining statuesque for a few more moments and barely moving a muscle. Still, as calm and collected as they were on the surface, no one else could see or feel the hurricane of emotion brewing underneath everything. No one else understood the gilded cage, hiding a consciousness that still beat against the bars with angry fists after all this time. And yet, hope appeared to be lessening more and more everyday, even when so close to being set free. How could anyone help now? How could anyone else save them when they couldn’t even save themselves?

Please...please don't...don't make me do it...I can't live with myself if I do..."

I made some revisions to my first fic, my pride and joy!

“Carlos and Jill's lives changed forever after they met in Raccoon City, during one of the worst disasters in modern history. As the company responsible for the disaster loomed over their lives, it couldn't stop them from growing closer together. However, opposition comes in many forms...”

Chapter 4 is Up Now! RE Revelations 12: The Woman and the Dragon

"Carlos sometimes woke in the wee hours of the morning, either for a short trip to the bathroom or because some nasty things lurked in his own subconscious, quick to manifest themselves in his dreams. Sometimes it was a dying Murphy or Tyrell, begging to be put out of their misery before turning, or being executed by Nikolai. Other times it was Jill who was being shot, or worse, mangled until her body was unrecognizable by Nemesis. Each time he found himself paralyzed and powerless to stop it. Perhaps it was his mind's way of showing him his biggest fear. Who was he if he wasn't playing someone's hero? This role was all too familiar– from providing emotional support to his mother, to joining the guerillas in a failed attempt at liberation and then attempting to rescue citizens from a doomed city..."

Potential Virus Risk on AO3 Comments

Hey everyone. So, I wanted to make a post about something I've seen in AO3 comments recently and I wanted to let y'all know so you can be careful.

Today, on two separate fics of mine, I got comments from guests with different names that had what looks like a key smash followed by a weird link. They looked like this:

Now, it is possible that these are legit comments and these links lead to nothing bad. But, in my experience, this looks like a classic phishing scam or a link to a virus. Honestly, I never open links I see online unless I know for sure I can trust the source. And even then I'm a bit hesitant, since I know that accounts can be hacked. I actually deleted the first email and comment immediately and didn't really think about it again. However, after getting another comment that was almost identical but from a guest with a different name, it makes me think that this might be something bad.

So, if you see these kinds of comments, unless you know exactly who sent it, I'd recommend just deleting them and not clicking on the links. Honestly, even if you know who sent it, I'd still be careful just in case they got hacked. If someone wanted to send you a legit link, they would probably do it with some kind of comment beforehand saying what the link actually leads to. This seems to me like they're trying to prey off curiosity and it can lead to some nasty stuff. Since I know some AO3 writers and readers follow me, I thought I'd post about it here. Similarly, if you see a comment like this on someone's fic, maybe don't click on it either. Again, I can't guarantee this is anything bad, since I definitely did not click on the links, but it's better to be safe than sorry. If y'all could reblog this to spread the word, I'd appreciate it.

Anyway, be careful out there guys! I got burned a few too many times as a kid, so I'm extra careful with links and things now, ha.

EDIT: Apparently, these links are indeed malicious. I checked them in an online link checker, and it detected one malicious source from the link in the second message, but 12 malicious sources in the link from the first message. So, it's pretty clearly a virus or phishing scam. Please be aware!

Chapter 4 is Up!

RE Revelations 12: The Woman and the Dragon

“Enjoying the view, babe?” Carlos asked her. The bus had been driving for just over an hour when he convinced Jill to return from her trip down memory lane. He had taken out his earbuds and let the cord drape around his neck like a wet towel.

“Maybe, it's not like I haven’t seen it before,” she admitted with a shrug.

Carlos leaned slightly forward to glance past her at the window. “True, I mean it never changes, does it? I don’t think a town of less than a thousand people cares much for a modern facelift.”

“It’s their prerogative I guess. Although it’s kinda nice to see some things remain the same after so long.”

“Yeah?” Carlos asked, returning his gaze to her.

Jill nodded, letting her soft smile fade. “Feels like our lives were steady for a while, but then the same crazy shit reared its ugly head.”

Carlos appeared to adopt her lost smile. “I hear ya hun…you ok?”

“Yeah, yeah I am," Jill nodded, and yet still seemed pensive. "I’m just…I dunno, nervous?”

“About today?”

“No, about the future," she admitted. "I mean, if last year proved anything, we’re not exactly in the clear yet.”

It was then Carlos' turn to look pensive. “Are you havin’ second thoughts?” he asked.

“No, no of course not! I want to do this, but…”

Carlos watched Jill expectantly after she trailed off, not wanting to assume her answer but still concerned and hoping for the best case scenario. He was used to her doubts and hesitations. This was hardly their first foray into discussing their future, which is how he learned to tell when her anxiety was triggered by either internal issues or external factors.

“I just feel weird. Like…oh nevermind, it wouldn’t make sense…” Jill said, trailing off again.

“Is it dread?” Carlos asked, “or doubts?”

Jill sighed as she leaned back in her seat, resting on to the cushioned headrest and taking a few seconds to steady herself with lowered lids and as she planned to explain herself. “I’m sorry hun, it’s not you. I want to be with you, take this next step, which you already know. It’s just that everytime we let our guard down it seems like someone or something serendipitously decides to intervene and destroy our happiness, or just destroy us all together.” Carlos was intently listening, although he wouldn’t have refuted her point regardless of his own views. He had always been the more optimistic one in their relationship, quick to look on the brightside when things felt too heavy. However, even optimism had its limits. They weren’t letting the threat of more danger interfere with how they lived their lives, yet it was irresponsible if not naive to ignore the possibility of it returning. After narrowly escaping some hidden adversaries the previous year, followed by warnings of an even more insidious enemy, every day of peace since then was like waiting for the other shoe to drop. “When the hell does it end?”

“Wish I had an answer for you babe,” he sagely replied. “At least after all the shit we’ve been through, no matter what they throw at us, what we've got hasn’t changed, and I’m pretty over the moon about it–about you.”
