#neither is Leon

|How the heck did the party guy get reincarnated into the faceman?|

|Chapter 1|

When Leo was younger, he had always had strange dreams.. They were always vivid when he was asleep..

But when he woke up, they faded into a blur. He could never remember the details clearly once he was out of dreamland, nor could he recall much about it.

… Although, he did remember certain colors vividly. Everytime without fail, he would remember the colors.. Red, Blue, and purple. Sometimes there was yellow and grey too. And sometimes brown was a prominent color. 

He felt a connection to those colors, and yet he couldn't for the life of him figure out why. It just was. It was confusing. The dreams held familiarity, the colors even more so. And he always been searching for why…

When he got older, he never stopped pondering it. He never forgot the colors that meant so much to him.. He never brought it up to anyone either. He felt he couldn't, because why would he bring up something so small? It wasn't that important, and he didn't want to bother anybody with it. 

… Now he kinda wished he mentioned something about it. Mainly because he was feeling intense deja vu and had a particularly strong feeling that it was connected to those dreams.

He hadn't even been doing anything major, he was just sitting and reading some comics that he managed to nab from the pile they had set up in a corner of the lair. 

What was causing it? He had no clue…

Eh, he'll figure it out later probably.. For now, he'll shrug it off..

… why did he feel like he shouldn't be shrugging it off…?

It was later that day when the feeling came back full force. He paused in his trek through the sewer pipe, his gaze sweeping across the empty tunnels in confusion. Something felt so familiar.. And.. Also so wrong. It felt like something bad was about to happen. 

He was tense now, his beak pressed into a thin line as he continued to scan his surroundings. He.. Probably shouldn't stay in one place too long. He needed to leave and most likely find a new path to get back home.

… well, portalling would also work… maybe he should portal out of the sewers, and then portal elsewhere? Make it as confusing as possible to keep someone from following him. That's a pretty nice idea actually. Mind Raph would be proud.

He reached back and grabbed his katana, sliding it out of its sheath. He then slashed the air with the blade, runes lighting up on the metal as a portal opened infront of him. He quickly made to step through it, him wanting to get out of this particular part of the sewers as fast as possible. 

Honestly, he didn't know why he didn't just portal home instead of taking the long way. He usually did…

"Well well well.. Isn't this just fascinating."

Leo jumped, a noise of surprise leaving him as he whirled around to face the origin of that voice. His eyes briefly met another set before he felt a sharp pressure on his neck, him tensing a moment. His body then stopped responding to him, his vision flickering and fading as his body became similar to a rag doll.

He tried saying anything, tried moving, tried something. But nothing worked. He couldn't see the person anymore, and all he could hear was the person cackling as they spoke in a singing voice," I finally found youuuu~!" 

Before he completely blacked out, he felt their arms wrap around his limp body, them lifting him up with ease. And he smelled something that made his blood cold as ice…

This person smelled like the Krang..

Sometimes I go to the Leon S. Kennedy tag on here and every time I leave disappointed and upset like what the balls is “fuckboy leon”. The last gf that man had was in 1998 and she broke up with him and he cried and drank about it and went to his new job hungover cus of it. Like he is utterly pathetic and hopeless with girls no matter how hard he tries, and when a girl DOES like him he doesn’t even notice

Also like it’s literally canon

#leon s kennedy #YOU FAKE ASS FANS/j #no but seriously can we stop mischaracterising him #it’s either he’s a twink or bad boy alpha and neither is true #leon kennedy #resident evil #resident evil 4 #resident evil 4 remake

Leon: What? Did I put something on backwards?

Claire: No, you look like a dad wearing that.

Leon: I am a dad…We have a whole baby?

I was watching the mithian episode (4x11, not the one with Hilda/Morgana) again, and right in the beginning, at around 2:10ish, when Merlin walks into the hall where all the knights and Gaius and servants are assembled for Arthur to make his announcement, Gwaine turns and looks at Merlin. It’s just a glance, but he’s the only one to actually move his face and look directly at Merlin. I don’t know why I love this so much. There was no reason for him to turn and look but he did. Because it’s Gwaine, and his attention and focus has always been Merlin’s.

Anon, you have quite the eye for detail. I would like to say, though, that Leon also looks over at Merlin—though, given that Leon and Gwaine are essentially foils of one another but on opposite ends of the spectrum, I don’t think that this fact detracts from the point you make. Leon probably notices Merlin come in late with mild annoyance, whereas Gwaine is more likely to be all “Oh, my best friend is finally here, and he’s standing right across from me :D Now we can begin.”

Anyways, as you said, Percival and Elyan have their eyes glued to Arthur, as does the rest of the room aside from Gaius (who Merlin is literally standing right next to). Very small moment, but it is quite interesting that—out of the entire room—those two specifically are the ones who look over.

Why was this particular choice made, what was it intended to convey, and what did it actually achieve? Given the context of their respective characterizations and dynamics with Merlin, I’d say that it both speaks to how similar Leon and Gwaine can be in their emotional reactions, as their impulsivity is a shared trait, yet it also establishes their differences in their senses of justice (both of which are incredibly strong, and in constant conflict when it becomes relevant). Remember that Gwaine and Leon’s first meeting is of Leon arresting Gwaine for protecting Merlin.

At the end of the day, Leon’s top priority will always be Arthur (hence the interpretation that he is mildly annoyed with Merlin here), and Gwaine’s will always be Merlin (who he is devoted to not for his station—which is in actuality below Gwaine’s own, opposite of Leon and Arthur—but for his companionship).

It’s the same action, same position, yet for two entirely different reasons, which reflects on their characters in a more general sense: their personalities and approaches are startlingly similar, yet their values couldn’t be more different. And for all their differences, they still show an equal intensity of protectiveness, anger, loyalty, integrity, and care—just… in very different ways.

(Side note: Leon’s relationship to Arthur is much more professional than Gwaine’s to Merlin, hehe)

#this is why i wish the series had dived deeper into their dynamic #the best we get is in Lamia when neither of them is really himself >:( #sir gwaine #sir leon #leon and gwaine #merlin and gwaine #arthur and leon #my meta #merlin meta #bbc merlin

what i like about ada's report, & i'll get into it more eventually, is that despite it being ada explaining the plot (& her motivations) to you directly, it presents an interesting relationship between ada, a known liar & manipulator, & the audience. while she withholds information from other characters & skirts about on mystery throughout RE4 & separate ways, there is one person to whom she doesn't lie, to whom she does tell the truth, at least a part of it, & that is you, the player. it is a very neat narrative device that wouldn't work as well in a different medium

#* file // : OOC — ( 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐏𝐎𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐑'𝐒 𝐂𝐑𝐔𝐒𝐀𝐃𝐄 . ) #not that anyone's actually fucking read ada's report people still think ada was saving leon out of love #in direct opposition to wesker's orders in the original re4 #i wish this didn't make me mad but it does it's right there in plain english the nikita pose is a misdirection #it's subverting the trope she's part of a bigger conspiracy leon is a necessary piece of her mission #like the subversion of the femme fatale isn't subtle #they either die or are undone upon reveal of their treachery ada survives & lives beyond the logical endpoint of her character #she isn't weakened or completely changed in fact she learns how to manipulate the hero better for their next encounter #she isn't working for the villain both in that she tells you that she's only been pretending to this whole time #& that she works for another organization that's been spying on wesker through ada this whole time #but also the fact that wesker is neither the villain of re4 nor resident evil as a franchise he is another cog in the machine #just another one of umbrella's leftovers #see i know people think ada despises chris because he mistook her for carla one time on the tanker #but i think they've got a lot more in common than either is truly willing to admit should they actually ever speak to each other #i just think it's neat that she gets his line addressed to wesker to use on mr. x (just another one of umbrella's failed experiments) #darkside chronicles & re5 were developed around the same time i'm sure it's a coincidence
