Ethan Winters: A Celebration in RE8 Achievement Art
So, it turns out there's this whole gallery of official RE8 art I hadn't seen before, created to illustrate XBOX achievements.*
And a lot of it makes Ethan look seriously badass.
Achievement names and descriptions included in the alt text. Oh, and I may have just retroactively populated a Rare Resi Renders tag, because I seem to keep finding this stuff.
Like, check out that top image ‒ that is Ethan knocking a flaming arrow out of the air with a knife. And he even looks like he meant to do it, which may be the craziest thing.**
Or, check out this one, for pushing away an enemy:
Tumblr media
He doesn't look like he's pushed that lycan away to me, he looks like he's just pistol-whipped the thing across the face. Ballsy! (Though man, that would've been a nice move to have available when you've emptied your clip and don't have space to reload for the umpteenth time.)
But maybe this one's my fave, which you get for finishing the whole game with 3-or-less healing items:
Tumblr media
This one's so very worth viewing at full res, because there's Ethan, limping towards Rose in the final minutes of he game as writhing tentacles of mould half-block the sunrise behind him, and... hang on, why are there four bottles of healing juice in this picture? Did someone not read the whole brief? XDXD
Don't care. Still love it. A+ composition and storytelling (just maybe a B- on the details).
* Those of us on PS and PC have to make to with icons, which really aren't the same.
** Look, I've got that achievement. I could not tell you how I got it. However I did it, I did not mean to, and I'd like to think Ethan was just as surprised as I was when it happened.

Ethan Winters x reader
Word Count: 3.3k
Warnings: violence, cuss words, spoilers for re7,
Author’s Note: I changed up the ending of the request a tad I hope you don’t mind. I hope you enjoy! I love writing for Ethan so this was a pleasure.
Requested: by @drinksomecoco, So I’ve just had these two fic ideas floating around that I wasn’t able to commit to. For Resi7, the idea is that the reader is someone Lucas had kidnapped and trapped in his weird saw games. They managed to escape while Lucas was distracted with family things and had found their way into the main house right before Ethan escaped his first family dinner, so they end up with him through the whole sordid affair. After everything is over, Ethan now has to choose between his wife, who he now knows lied to him their whole relationship, or the reader, who admitted at some point that they didn’t have much of a home to go to. Obviously wouldn’t expect anyone to rewrite the whole game’s plot, maybe more reflection while they recover and Ethan has to make his choice
Summary: the request
I don’t own these characters. They belong to author/director/creator
(not my gif)
Tumblr media
When you woke up your head was throbbing. You felt like you hadn’t known a moment's peace in days. You should have known, you kept telling yourself. You should have known that going this far out into the wilderness would only bring bad things.
A whole family of bad things.
Lucas was the one who found you out wandering by yourself. Honestly, you wished it was anyone else. He was a sadist and he kept putting you in these sick games. You had beaten him so far but you weren’t sure how much longer you could take.
You sat up in the cold empty stone room and rubbed your head. You looked around. There was a single bulb light above your head, illuminating the room. You walked up to the door and grabbed onto the door handle, not expecting it to work.
To your surprise, the handle turned, opening the door up. You stood there for a moment in awe. You had tried that every time you woke up but it had never worked. You had to be careful. There was a possibility it was all part of Lucas’s games. You took a step forward and looked around warily.
Nothing and no one in sight. He must have just made a fatal mistake. Your breath picked up as you started to walk around his little hellscape. It was a winding place, filled with twists, turns and trip wires. You wanted to run but had to make sure you kept your pace. You couldn’t move too fast with the traps littered around.
You took a deep breath as you opened another door and stumbled outside. You wanted to cry from relief. Air. Outside air. You looked around eagerly, making sure you didn’t see anyone else. It was dark outside. There was a trailer and then a large house to your right. You weren’t sure if you would be able to get away if you didn’t go through the house. Everything else looked pretty fenced in.
You went into the trailer and was pleased to find a gun and some ammo in there. You loaded the gun, thankful for the shooting classes you had taken years ago. You put the gun safely in your belt loop and carefully approached the house. You opened up the door a bit and glanced inside the large room.
You took a deep breath as you stepped inside. It was a large room with two staircases on either side of the room. You took in your surroundings. Just had to find a way to the other side of this house. That was all you had to do. The task didn’t seem so daunting when you put it that way.
Suddenly the door on the same floor you were on opened carefully. You took out your gun and held it up as a man opened the door and shut it carefully behind him. He had nicely cut dirty brown hair and he was wearing a green jacket that was covered in black and red liquids.
He turned around and noticed you which caused him to raise his own gun.
“Who are you?” he asked, voice shaking.
“Who are you?” He walked up to you, gun not wavering.
“Answer my question.”
“I...are you part of the family?”
“No. Are you?” You shook your head. You both kept your weapons up though, noticeably untrustworthy.
“I’m Y/N. I was trying to find a nice place out here in the wilderness to take some pictures but Lucas found me and put me in his little hell of games,” you told him. “Who are you? How did you get here?” He thought about whether he was going to answer you and took a deep breath before lowering his gun. You lowered yours as well.
“My wife went missing three years ago. She sent me a message...I found her here. But she’s crazy she tried to kill me and then this fucking family tied me up to a chair and…” He showed you his hand which seemed to be stapled on. You scoffed.
“I can take a look at that if you want. I know a little bit about medical stuff,” you said warily. He nodded a bit.
“I have to get my wife.”
“I have to get out of here.”
“Me too. Eventually.” You nodded a bit. You put your gun in your waistband again and Ethan walked closer to you. He still didn’t entirely trust you but he liked you enough. “Your wifes a lucky girl,” you told him. He smiled a bit. There was some unspoken truth there. Ethan could help you and you could help him.
“You mind telling her that? She’s still trying to kill me.”
=====
You and Ethan walked over to the trailer to get some sort of peace. You couldn’t stay there long but it seemed like it was a place where they didn’t look often. Plus, there was only one door to monitor. He sat on the bed as you knelt in front of him. You were carefully examining his hand.
“The staples were a choice,” you muttered. He chuckled dryly.
“At least it’s back on,” he told you. You nodded and sat down on your knees.
“It looks like you’re able to use it well enough. Once we get out of here we’re gonna have to make sure you get it looked at further. Here’s some more meds if the hand starts hurting.”
“You’re a Godsend.” You gave him a kind smile and stood back up.
“Alright, now where’s your wife?”
“I found a video of her going out to the old house. I have to assume she’s somewhere out there but you know, it’s a working theory.” You nodded. “I talked to Zoe. She said there was a cure here, for Mia.”
“And I assume you’re going to find it?” “If I can.” You took a deep breath and nodded.
“Alright. We’ll probably find it when we go and deal with Marguerite.” He nodded back at you.
“That was what I was hoping for.”
“You dealt with the old man?” He nodded.
“Barely.” You cocked your gun.
“Perfect. Then let’s go give mom a taste of what we got.”
====
“This house is fucking disgusting,” you whispered. Ethan nodded as he crouched down beside a nest of some sort.
“I second that.” He stood up and you quickly moved with him. You were quiet, trying to gauge where on Earth Marguerite was. You kept yourself together as you ran into large bugs and places that made you need to backtrack and find other things.
As you walked through the house you eventually made it up to a small window.
“Ethan?” You turned around, met face to face with some woman you hadn’t seen before.
“Mia!” Ethan ran over and put his hands against the barrier between the two of them. You found yourself hiding a bit of jealousy but you had bigger problems.
“Hey Ethan!” Lucas yelled, grabbing Mia around the neck. Ethan started to shake the barrier. Lucas met your eyes as he pulled her away. “I’ll get you bitch. Just you wait!” You turned to Ethan as Lucas and Mia disappeared. He gave you a nervous look which you returned.
Eventually the two of you made it out to some sort of greenhouse where Marguerite was waiting. She transformed herself into a disgusting, drooping and dangerous form.
Ethan handed you one of his two shotguns which you took with care. You raised it up to where her most vulnerable place was and shot.
Ethen came at her from your side. When your gun got knocked down Ethan put himself between you and your foe. He put his hand on your hip, turning you so you were effectively behind him as he shot his handgun. Together you were able to take her down, after much effort. As she fell and died you suddenly realized how exhausted and in pain you were.
“Are you okay?” Ethan asked, more worried then he thought he was. You nodded a bit and used his shoulder to steady yourself.
“Just a little woozy. We gotta move on.” He nodded and grabbed your other arm, holstering his gun.
“You’re gonna pass out.” You shook your head.
“I am not.” He gave you a look. “You know Ethan Winters, you’re kind of a badass. I would be scared if you were pointing a gun at me.”
“I already did.”
“And I was scared,” you joked weakly. He scoffed and put your arm over his shoulder.
“Let’s get to the trailer and give you a minute before we hit Lucas with all that we got,” he muttered. You nodded.
“That motherfucker doesn’t know what's coming,” you whispered.
“Yeah, a guy with one hand and a girl who’s about to pass out. He’s gonna tremble in fear.”
“Hey now, don’t you underestimate us. We’ve made it this far. Just gotta get him, get your wife and get the fuck out of here.” He didn’t get the same pleasant feeling when he thought of Mia. He decided not to bring it up or dwell on it.
“Alright. I believe you.” ===
Ethan sat on the bed beside you. You were resting for a moment. You promised him only five minutes and he watched the door. He didn’t mind much. You fell into sleep easily, clearly exhausted. He grabbed your hand and held it for comfort.
Your face was so peaceful when you were asleep.
“Ethan,” you whispered, eyes still shut.
“Yeah?” he asked.
“We have to keep moving,” you told him as you squeezed his hand groggily.
“If you pass out Lucas will kill you.”
“Yeah? You would let that happen?” He scoffed. Ethan realized suddenly, he wouldn’t let that happen. You couldn’t get hurt. He chastised his own thoughts, looking down at his ring finger but he couldn’t see it. You were holding his hand and blocking the view.
“Not if I can help it.”
=====
Lucas paid special attention to you. He wanted to make sure you suffered for getting out and killing his parents. You and Ethan were forced to play his little game.
You and Ethan stood together in a locked couple of rooms. He grabbed your arm before you could walk too far into the room.
“Y/N-”
“This is just like the ones he kept me in. I saw the footage of someone else doing this, I know how to do it,” you whispered to him. He watched your eyes. He was sweating and exhausted. He was relieved to hear that you knew what you were doing.
“Go on then.”
You were able to work through that puzzle which did piss Lucas off but you were already gone before he could complain anymore. Now you had the serum and you had both made it out alive.
You found Mia after an aggressive amount of fighting with the Bakers. The more you saw of this family the less you were surprised by the sight. She was stumbling and scared but at the sight of Ethan her face lit up .
“Ethan?! Ethan!” she called, throwing her arms around her. He held her wordlessly for a moment as he dragged her quickly to the boat you and Ethan had found.
“We have a serum, to cure you,” you told her. She gave you a scared look.
“Who are you?”
“She’s a friend,” Ethan said. You held each other's gaze for a moment and gave her a kind smile. “I didn’t see Zoe. Did you find her?” he asked Mia. She shook her head.
“I haven’t seen Zoe in ages. We need to get out of here. We can’t dwell,” she told you both.
“She helped me get this serum.”
“Yeah and that’s much appreciated. But we have to leave,” she said. “We can come back later.” You eyed Ethan. He looked over at you for permission and you shrugged.
“She helped us get this. It seems stupid to leave her.”
Mia was trembling, worried about the escape. You all were. It was right then that Zoe emerged from the darkness.
“Zoe!” Ethan called. She ran over.
“You got the serum?” You gave her a curt look and then had to turn away.
“We..we only have one,” Ethan said. He was holding the only one there. You had to use the other one fighting Jack. You looked away from Mia as she noticed that he was going to have to make a choice.
“Well then you’ll have to choose one of us to give it to,” Zoe said evenly. Mia looked over at him and Ethan just looked at you. You shrugged from behind Mia.
“It’s up to you Ethan.” You could practically see his gears turning in his head. On one hand, Mia was his wife. He came here for her. But on the other hand...Zoe could help them get out. They could try and replicate the serum if they were able to leave sooner.
He grabbed Zoe’s arm and stuck the needle in. Mia gasped, shocked.
“I’m sorry. I truly am. Zoe will be able to guide us to safety,” he told her. You stepped into the boat, helping Zoe inside beside you.
“I’m staying here,” Mia said, disgusted.
“Don’t be ridiculous,” Ethan countered. “My place is here. With her,” she told him. You watched as Ethan got into the boat in front of you.
“We’ll come back for you,” he promised. Mia’s face was shrouded by the dark shadows as the boat went down the river.
=====
Eventually you came up to a much larger boat. You ended up on the boat, where Eveline was. You had known about Eveline, only through Lucas’s complaints about her. You didn’t realize she was a child or that she was like the way she was. When Eveline realized that Mia might not want to be her mother, she wondered if you would be a candidate.
She knocked you and Ethan out.
You woke up with a start. Your head hasn't stopped hurting since the last time you woke up. Now you had no idea where you were. You stood up shakily. Eveline hadn’t taken your weapons.
“Ethan?! Zoe?!” you called out but there was no response. You looked around at the dark and grimy metal of the boat. You pulled out your gun. “Ethan?!” you called again, hoping that he would answer. Nothing.
You had to start walking around to find them. Your feet started to get wet from the damp atmosphere but you could barely notice. You ran into different mold monsters but were able to keep them down enough for you to pass.
You felt like you had walked for almost an hour before you saw Ethan. He ran into you, breath heaving, gun out.
“Fuck, I almost shot you!” he yelled. “What’s going on? Where’s Zoe?”
“She’s dead! Mia!” You furrowed your eyebrows and then saw that Mia was chasing him down with a weapon. Your eyes went wide. The shots you figured at her merely slowed her down.
“Run!” you told him and both of you started to book it away.
“We need to find Eveline!” he told you as you ran.
“Where is she?”
“I don’t know! But we need to find her!” You nodded, taking a sharp turn.
“Lead the way!”
====
You had to watch Ethan kill his wife. You watched him as his love for her was broken down to pieces as he shot her. You helped obviously. But he fired the last shot, as she asked him why he had chosen Zoe over her. Even you felt your heart clench up a bit and you didn’t love her like Ethan had.
“Mia,” he whispered as she crystallized and then dissipated. “Why?” You walked up to him and put a hand on his back. He turned to you and hugged you tightly, burying his face in your neck. You held him there for a moment and then pulled away. You put your hand on his cheek gingerly.
“We have to keep going. We have to find her.” Ethan nodded and backed away to reload his gun. His face glossed over with grief and rage.
“Let’s go.”
=====
The last fight with Eveline was dirty. You had to get the shot into her and it happened but not after she erupted into screams. She looked like she was just a child. How could just a child do all of the chaos she did?
As your back landed harshly on the ground after being shot out of the house, you felt relief. Relief and pain. You could see the sun rising. For a moment you just laid in the grass as your ears rang.
Then Ethan turned to grab your hand. You turned your head to look at him. His face was dirty and tired. You would probably both sleep for a week after this ordeal. Your hearing came back and you could hear him try and talk to you over the sound of helicopter propellers.
“What?!” you called, probably far more loudly than you intended.
“Are you okay!?” he screamed. You nodded quickly.
“Are you?!” He nodded back.
“Ethan Winters and Y/N Y/L/N?!” You both looked up to see a large man standing over you. You sat up and he held out his hand for both of you to take.
“Yes?!” Ethan called.
“I’m Redfield. I’m glad we found you.”
Chris and his team helped the two of you into a chopper. You sat next to each other as it lifted off. You saw Ethan pull out his phone, miraculously uncracked. A video of Mia was playing on it.
“She lied to me the entire time we were married,” he told you quietly.
“I’m sorry. You don’t deserve that.” He gave the phone one last look and took a deep breath before tossing it out of the helicopter.
“You could have just deleted the video,” you told him, laughing dryly. He scoffed and nudged you.
“Now is not the time,” he said but his voice was miraculously light hearted.
“You’re right. I am sorry though. Once we have a two day long nap we’ll talk more about it.” “Where are you going? After we get back.” You shrugged.
“I don’t have much of a place to get back to honestly. I guess we’ll just see where the wind takes me.”
“Isn’t that how you ended up here?” You nodded sheepishly. He looked down at the house for a long moment before looking back at you. “Stay with me. We can help each other get out of this rut. You can monitor my stapled on hand.” You smiled, brushing a piece of your hair behind your ear.
“You sure?”
“I have room for one more now. I’d like it to be you.” You grabbed his hand tightly. He squeezed your knuckles, looking you in the eye.
“Alright,” you breathed. He nodded.
The two of you fell asleep in the helicopter not long after that, leaning on each other for support. You would heal, over time. Together.

"I've touched on this before but I just wanna bring up once again how absolutely batshit stupid it actually is that after getting that insane video from his wife who's been missing for three years and is looking clearly insane/under duress, his response is to put on a nice dress shirt with some leather shoes, pack absolutely no supplies or weapons, make no attempt to alert any authorities and just drive out into the swamp like he's picking her up from a night out. Oh and Mia sort of covered up the fact that she was a ruthless operative for a shadowy organisation that created a monstrous biological weapon in the form of a young child they were exploiting but oh well :3"
Man, the things one reads on reddit; how to get almost everything wrong and pass it as fact
The only thing they get right is that he didn't alert authorities when he hightailed it from his job/afteroffice w friends
And we were just talking about this yesterday!
You know what I find a massive lost opportunity with such people? That they look at Ethan and think "He's stupid. Why is he a protagonist?" instead of thinking "He's a massive himbo and everything he says makes me laugh." They're sabotaging their own enjoyment of the games by only looking at the surface.
Like. Ethan can be an amazing protagonist if you're willing to look past the bias that USAmerican-made and USAmerican-centered media have instilled in us, that protagonists in anything that has action in it have to be witty and badass and cool and look away from explosions and stuff. No, fuck that. There's not one correct way to write a protagonist. And Ethan, he's perfectly written as he is. He's your average Joe, your neighbor, whose main trait is that he puts his feelings before his logic - and that's a super human trait to have, I'll have you know, more than the Ethan haters realize. Something I read from an Ethan fan and I loved is that "Ethan has all his braincells in his heart" because yes, that's it. When it's something about someone he cares about, he doesn't bother think twice - and almost no normal human would. Even though I haven't played any other RE game, I know the basic concept behind the other protagonists; being a trained operative/cop/soldier/whatever they are, they are not only trained into putting their logic before their feelings, they're people who have chosen this kind of lifestyle. It's not only their ability to do so, it's their choice to use that ability in their life. And that's a very common trait for protagonists of games with any kind of action. (Not saying they don't have their own identifying traits, of course; as I said, I know next to nothing about them. But they do have that specific trait in common)
And then comes Ethan Winters. He's a systems engineer. The police has been telling him for the past three years that they can't locate his missing wife. And now he's getting an e-mail from her. Not to get all ΑCΑB at your face but I'd probably do the same, if faced with that. Like we have the benefit of watching it all from a safe distance, from our screens, but the most we could say about Ethan there is that maybe he should have taken a moment to consider. They say he should've picked up a gun - because that's super easy to do last moment, for a systems engineer, right? Even in the US. Like, it's a very small thing, but... in RE Village, when the first villager we meet asks Ethan if he has a gun, Ethan's immediate response is "No, why would I?" Reminder that this dude was born and raised in a country with terrifyingly lax gun laws. He underwent military training after Dulvey, but he's still pretty clear-headed about it enough to consider being armed 24/7 a bit too much. And like, consider. Would Chris, who knows what Ethan went through and with whom he shares mutual trust, deny giving Ethan a gun for self-defense purposes, if Ethan asked? Yet Ethan doesn't consider it necessary. Like, I'm not sure if USAmericans understand how that feels to everyone else. I've only seen firearms from up close in my life a selective few times, and that was from border patrol officers in some countries' borders and in one (1) airport. I've done some training with air guns for recreation myself, but that's all. And the office my mother worked in was in the same building with the local police station, right next door to it; I even knew many of the people working there by name, yet I didn't see a gun once. I don't know if USAmericans realize how big it feels to hear Ethan Winters, a USAmerican character who went through a horror situation where he depended on guns to survive, considers it unnecessary to be armed 24/7.
Like... there's a lot to consider, and of course many gamers won't stop to do that and will immediately put a stupid label on Ethan. And like, if you don't care about any meta analysis and just want to play a game, that's fine and dandy but don't blame the game for wanting to put some extra layers on its characters when you're not willing to look into said layers, you know?
Same goes for Mia, but this is a video game we're talking about, of course a lot of people will hate on her. She's a female character who's not sexualized by the game (unlike Dimitrescu and her daughters), or mysterious (unlike Donna), or OP (unlike Miranda and potentially grown-up Rose). She's the easiest target for the incels people who frequent video game subreddits.

I just watched a stream of the demo and holy shit Ethan is such a fucking chad.
He single-handed takes out a pact of these wolf-men motherfuckers when they try to ambush him in the fields. He finds two survivors, one of which is injured, and immediately starts trying to help them. Despite not knowing these people or what the hell is going on, he does everything in his power to help. He’s the first one to recognise when the pops isn’t himself and tries to get the granddaughter out of there. Then, even when Elena is trapped on the broken floorboards and is clearly beyond saving, he reaches out to try to help anyway. And when he fails to save her, he shows some real, genuine emotion, so all the people who hate his guts can’t complain about that shit anymore.
Then, after its all said and done, when he’s passed through the gates and is staring up at the looming, dark Castle Dimitrescu, instead of being intimidated or frightened he’s just like “This shit again, huh? Alright, here we go.” This man is a force of nature and he’s gonna fuckin’ annihilate anything that threatens him or Rosie.
TL;DR Ethan Winters is a fucking badass, has improved in terms of emotional range, and deserves a dad of the year award.

UTMV Resident Evil Village AU Post
Aka I’ve snapped and can’t stop thinking about this so now you have to too.
Okay so. The other day I was thinking about a drawling I saw of Nightmare and the bad sanses as Lady D and her daughters respectively which was super cool and fun! I began to wonder who the other RE8 characters could be only to realize that no one I thought it really seemed to fit except, well, the ones already used. So I began to rearrange them, placing Nightmare as Mother Miranda and the rest fell slowly into place.
As of now, this is what I have down: Moreau was the easiest, connecting him with Horror. Horror, much like Moreau, was hurt extremely badly, both mentally and physically, by outside situations and people. Of course, in Horror’s case, Nightmare has nothing to do with this, unlike Mother Miranda, but I’m willing to acknowledge some differences and tweak some things to help stuff fit.
Next was Karl as Killer. The reason for this connection was mostly due to the fact that I felt Karl didn’t fit anyone else quite as well. Killer playing the clever, if a bit obsessive deranged favorite child with mommy issues who wants to kill said mom feels the most right to me. It also produces an interesting dynamic between him and Nightmare I don’t often see in fics.
Now, the hardest for me have been Donna and Lady D. For these two I have Dust and Error to fit. On the one hand, Error’s dolls feel like too good of a connection to pass up with Donna, not to mention his very antisocial attitude. However, I feel like Dust fits Donna more personality wise. Driven mad, locking himself away from other people, left with only ghosts and memories. Extremely quiet and antisocial and using other methods to communicate with people. Not to mention Lady D’s hotheadedness and inflated ego definitely feels very Error to me. I think to remedy this I’m going to do some ~edited lore~ (like what I mentioned earlier with Horror and Nightmare) where I tweak and add certain elements to help fit the flow better such as Error giving Dust a doll to cope/teaching Dust how to make them to help. But enough about them!
It’s protagonist time. And who is Mr. Ethan Hand-Trauma Winters himself? Cross. It’s cross. I think I may have been warped by all of the mature and kickass Cross work I’ve seen because I feel like he’s the closest character to Mr. Winters. And because my partner was the one who introduced me to RE8 and gave me a lot of my biases, it gives me an excuse to ship Kross so. Yeah. But what about Mia? As of now, I have Dream set as Mia. Mia is an extremely fascinating character and even with what little we get of her in game, I feel like her responses to the trauma that was RE7 (avoiding talking about shared trauma with Ethan, running away to countryside, showing little regard for the maturity level of sharing a book while showing it to her child, etc) fit Dream to me. Essentially, Cross and Dream are in a bit of an unhappy marriage, with Cross trying to address their shared trauma and move on while Dream tries to avoid the topic and pretend everything is okay while also throwing a baby in the mix. Anyways.
Chris! Chris is Blue. He’s smart, badass, and extremely capable! He knows he’s working for a bad company (or at least a questionable one) but has to figure out sneaky ways to escape it because he knows they won’t let him go that easily. The reason he doesn’t immediately tell Cross the truth at the beginning is because he has direct orders from someone who he trusts as both a superior and a friend (probably Edge) and tho he’s reluctant he complies. Super cool and downtoearth with bonus points of being kinda friends with Cross and Dream.
Last but not least, Ink is the Duke. That’s it. Listen he’s my favorite and I’m not not adding him. Also might be thinking of the moon blossom au’s merchant Ink. It also gives him the chance to be friends with Cross! Let me have this.
Anyway, sorry for the long post. I have more but this is the best I can do for now. My brain wouldn’t let me rest until I infodumped.
Also, I was going to keep the og genders if the re8 characters. Because I desperately need more women in this fandom. They also are probably human but I’m not 100% on that. I can’t draw but I may come up with some descriptions of them. Have a nice day!

I'm gonna ask some random oc questions to get to know some of them! 1. Which oc has the biggest family and whats their relationship with them? 2. Which of your ocs has the biggest sweet tooth and what do they like? 3. Which is the oldest? 4. youngest? 5. Which is best in school and do they enjoy school/ learning? 5. Which oc is the most popular and what draws people to them? (Popular in universe or popular among irl people doesn't matter) 6. Which was your first oc? 7. Which is your fave?
@zock
:D!!!! Sorry, I’m kind of freaking out cuz someone actually asked me. XD Okay, calm down Cody, calm down.
To answer your questions :)
1. It’s a tie between Ethan Callaway and Nahla Attia. 
Ethan was taken in by his best friend, Kira, and her Father, after his parents passed. To Ethan, Kira is everything to him, and vice-versa. They used to date, but they both agreed it wasn’t going to work out. They still hold a lasting friendship, though. 
Nahla was adopted, actually. She never knew her true parents. She was taken in at a young age and trained to be the best. Her relationship with her adoptive parents is a little… strained, to say the least. 
2. Ethan and Ai Komachi, without a doubt. They LOVE sweets, especially chocolate.
3. The oldest would have to be both Aires and Tariq. They old but look fabulous.
4. The youngest would have to probably be…Ai, as she was born in September. Everyone’s about the same age, so I just went with the month they were born.
5. No-one’s in school but Ashley Haywood LOVES to learn! She loves reading and writing, so every chance she can to learn something new inspires her.
6. In universe, the most popular, I think, would have to be… The Haywoods. Richard is the Captain of the Osiris, Ashley is the Ensign, both have earned respect and admiration from their people.
7. My first OC was Ethan, actually! He’s gone through multiple changes, from an alien, to a merc, to an assassin, to now an augmented badass :)
8. My favorite OC? Hmm… I’ve really been into Hale lately. And Rachel Winters. I don’t know why, there’s just something about them.
I hope these answers are good! Thank you for asking me :D

Reverse AU: Name’s Clancy
Phone call.
.
.

“Ma, are you alright?” Lucas asked frantically, his lanky form bent over Marguerite Baker. Jack sat on her left-hand side, his fingers already digging into his backpack for medicine whilst Zoe kept watch near her wounded mother. The four Bakers remained huddled in the depths of the Winters’ basement, trying to hide from all the corrupted organisms lingering nearby. Each drip and groan sent the Bakers into a flurry of anxiety and had bullets to fire every few minutes due to Lucas Baker’s jumpy nature.
“I’m fine,” Marguerite choked out. There was a gorging gash in her side, courtesy of the crawling fuckers. The blood didn’t seem to want to stop as Lucas pressed his hoodie against the wound, Jack already pouring the clear liquid over his wife’s wound. The cut quickly sealed up and all pain vanished from Marguerite’s face in near seconds.
“You alright, Marguerite?” She nodded in reply to Jack’s worrisome tone. The older man seemed to relax now that she wasn’t bleeding out.
“Not that I don’t think mom should rest a little longer,” Zoe cut in, “but we have to get out of here. There’s more coming.” She clicked her gun off the safety lock and took several steps back, the unwelcomed footsteps of monsters gaining volume with each passing moment.
“Ma, you think you’re good to go?” 
Marguerite nodded, her stiff body raising from the ground with one of their four backpacks. She allowed herself the luxury of clicking her back, then grabbed the loaded shotgun. Zoe wasn’t the only good shot in the family.
“Don’t fret over me, Lucas. We need to get out of this hellhole,” she smirked. Marguerite’s badass nature always shone through when things got rough.
The four family members gathered their belongings and walked out into the danger head-on. Zoe had already shot down three of the monsters with her handgun, her good aim benefitting the Bakers extremely well in these circumstances. Marguerite began blasting a few of the crawlers in pure vengeance- call it retribution. And Jack had taken on the task of a more manual approach, his rough nature helping to decapitate the monsters with a worn dagger. Lucas, however, was the least athletic of the Bakers and had begun forming bombs to injure the fatter and sturdier ‘friends’, as the little girl had referred to them as.
“We need to get out of here and to a phone,” Lucas yelled over the noise. He had finished forming one of the bombs and threw it over his family’s heads, the bomb detonating below the remaining creatures.
“We need to get to the phone and call the police. Fast. Before Mia and Ethan Winters find us, again.”
Jack took the lead, his larger form surprisingly fast in times of urgency, not to mention that the basement was some sort of large maze and the Baker father had a better sense of direction than Marguerite, Lucas and Zoe combined. The four characters ran down the sludge-infested hallways, running into a handful of monsters every few turns. When they saw the light of a poorly lit hallway, the family bolted out of the dark cavern and into a nearby study. If their adventures had taught them anything, they had to loot for survival.
Jack unlocked a few toolboxes and dug through worms to grab psychostimulants and bullets, whereas Marguerite dug through the desk draws for medicine and more bullets. Zoe and Lucas worked together to find more scraps, wires and chem fluid. When all their bags were full, the family carried on through the infected hallways.
It wasn’t long before they stumbled upon Mia Winter’s ‘feast’ that she had prepared for them earlier. Jack, Marguerite and Zoe had escaped the earlier meeting with little to no injuries- unlike Lucas. The man had no filter on his mouth and ended up with a carved cheek, almost losing an eye too. He had already wiped some of the medicine over the scabbing wound, but it was too late for it had already begun healing and left a nasty scar on his features.
“From what this map says, there’s a phone around the next corner,” Zoe elucidated. She slipped the map back in her back pocket and followed Jack as he turned the upcoming corner. A black phone caught the Bakers’ attentions and they eagerly approached it, awaiting the voice of another sane person. Jack lifted the phone from its holder and lifted his hand to phone emergency services, his hand suddenly freezing in place. An expression of pure shock settled upon his face and he beckoned Lucas closer, handing the device over to him. The eldest child glanced at his dad oddly and lifted the phone up to his ear.
“Hello?”
A new voice crackled through the receiver.
“Hey, the name’s Clancy. If you want to survive, you need to do exactly as I say.”

Seriously, I'd marry Ethan too. What a serious keeper. Mia, you lucky gal you. Any fluffy postRE7 headcanons for EthanxMia? Thanks!
Right?!? He's just great husband material. Like I'd trust that guy with my life. Ultimate husband goals.Not sure what happened to them after RE7, but here's to a happy ending where they get to go home, cause damn do they deserve some peace. Headcanon time (sorry there might be a mix of angst and fluff cause I'm starting from when they first get back to when they're settled down again): -Mia's super suprised to see their place still looks relatively the same since she last saw it-Ethan honestly just couldn't bring himself to change anything. He clung to everything that reminded him of her, including all of her stuff (though people told him to move on and get rid of everything) -first thing they do once they get home: sleep -of course it's hard to sleep, Mia has a lot of nightmares, even Ethan does. -but they just hold each other and try anyways. -it takes a while for things to even get relatively normal for them. -Ethan hasn't even called anyone about this yet. He's not even sure how to go about explaining this to people. Let alone the commotion it would cause now that mia is suddenly back from being dead for 3 years. -that and he's not even sure if he's allowed to say anything. He didn't really ask Redfield about that.-he can tell Mia is still very nervous and jumpy about everything. -she's scared about a lot of things. Infection, the company coming for her. -speaking of the infection, it's still there. They didn't realize it at first. But one day Mia accidentally cuts herself in the kitchen while cooking. -Ethan was doing some cleaning at the time, but then he suddenly hears her scream, and he runs and sees her and she's crying like she's really scared. -so he has to hold her and reassure her that they're fine. He has to remind her that Eveline is gone and that she was safe now. Though honestly Ethan's scared too. -eventually they figure it's time to move. Maybe a change of scenery would be good for the both of them. -so they pack up and leave to a new city where no one knows them. -things get better after that. -everything they've been through has also brought them extremely closer. -they spend the majority of their time focused on each other-they go on cute little dates on the weekends-and during the week they cook together, make it a romantic dinner, or sometimes if they're too tired they order in take out, cuddling on the couch and watching TV-They do everything together too, shopping, late night walks, showering-still, every now and then it's a little hard to sleep.-some nights they'll just sit up and talk all night-other nights they'll go for midnight diner runs-nothing gets your mind off stuff better than waffles at 3 am. -one time while chatting with a neighbor they were asked if they thought about starting a family-they both just shared a look and laughed(awkwardly)-"yeah we'll pass on that thank you" -all they need and want right now is each other-there are a few perks to the infection, aside from healing, they also never get sick anymore (or at least they haven't yet), and they've also noticed an increase in things like strength, stamina, agility. -Mia's more cautious about hiding it, Ethan likes to exploit it. -Mia thinks he's cute but "seriously Ethan if you draw any negative attention at us you're gonna get it" -she just worries too much. She can't help it she's just been through too much. -Ethan gets worried too though he just hides it under sarcasm and humor. -she's known him long enough to be able to tell though. -mia always knows when Ethan just really needs a hug and a break-for now they just want a relaxing life together, no more stress. -even when they see things on the news. -"strange outbreak occurring in the southeast"-They just turn off the TV. -"do you think we should help?"-not yet. Maybe some day they'll go off and join the other action hero protags (and they'd be a badass power couple when they do) but they're not ready now. -for now they just want to heal a bit more-They got married in December (cause get it they're the Winters?) -Mia wanted a beautiful snowy wedding. -that and what better time to get married than around the holidays?-it's their favorite time of the year. -they spend their anniversary snuggled up together under a fluffy blanket sipping warm coffee-Ethan and Mia live happily ever after togetherSadly though in canon I'm not sure what's going to happen to them. Obviously they're pry not gonna get to settle down and be happy together. I feel like they're in for a whole world of stress. (Cause come on they flew off in an Umbrella Corporation helicopter. Does that sound like the beginning of a happy ending? I think I've played enough of these games to know where that ends)
