I got my nails done today! And they were inspired by Arwen and Éowyn’s dresses from this pic.

We are still with Ada, she’s looking for Annette Birkin and so we are going to help her. In fact Ada wants to destroy Umbrella. Girl, I am in!

And now we are in a fucking sewer! I hate Raccoon City. And there is some big ass alligator or crocodile down here too. Life shouldn’t be this hard. I’m still going to help Leon and Ada, Claire too. I just also really wanna go home.

I wonder if Ada’s feet hurt. Those heels do not look comfortable to walk in or stand in or run from zombies in or walk through a sewer in. She looks better than that big guy in a trench coat too.

Only to remember we need to go to the Library to use the jack to move the shelves to get to the clock tower. It’s on the other side of the precinct! Who designed this place?! Also got jumped my more Lickers.

Of course I wasn’t much help as I kept screaming “EMPTY THE CLIP”! I’m surprised I’ve lasted this long. Well, I’ve have Leon so that’s probably it. Hehe.

Before all that mess, while exploring and picking up whatever looked useful, we found the jail. There were zombies in the cells and so I told Leon to handle them while they were locked up. Anytime I can prevent us from getting jumped, I’m taking it. Then we met this guy, a reporter (later found out his name was Ben) who has beef with Chief Irons. But that ended shortly because something stuck its hand through the wall and smashed his against the wall. The only upside to this is we found that mysterious woman again.

Her name is Ada. She told us to leave. I want to leave so much! But to get out we need to open the cell that had Ben because his card with open the parking garage. So we went back to exploring because we need to find the clock tower.

I don’t know who did city planning here or signed off on this building or whoever is in charge of updating places. But I’m going to go after their kneecaps with a crowbar. Really the inside of this precinct is a mess!!!! I hate it here.

So yeah all of that and now we are hanging in the boiler room. I hope Claire and Ada don’t run into that guy.

Dear Marvin,

You seemed like a good man and a good cop. Sucks we didn’t get to hang out more. Sleep well, sweet prince. We’ve got it from here lieutenant.

Continuing on, we got attacked by a guy who hand a giant mutated eye on his right arm. Dunno what that was about. Zombie dog….it’s not right! I hate it so much. At least the rest of the kennel was empty. I hope the other dogs made it out.

Oh! We also met a woman who said she was FBI. We need to follow her. She did save us but left before we could talk more.

Found some parts for Matilda, looks a little ridiculous but Leon likes it and that’s what matters. Also using the LE 5, it makes this a bit easier. Generally Leon makes me hold the flash light and stay behind him. But I’ve been getting more of a say since those Lickers (we had a note about them!). I swear Leon just shoves stuff in his pockets.

Seriously though, why is this precinct so huge?! It has like 3 basement levels and 3 floors on top. I guess it would be since Raccoon City is big, probably. Didn’t really get to look around on account of the zombies. They ruin everything.

Who gets uppies?

Who gets what side of the bed?

Who uses the lap as a pillow?

Who is big spoon? Little spoon? Or are they chopsticks?

Who is the passenger princess?

When upset who looks homicidal? (But actually isn’t…probably)

Also!!!!! There were these things that dropped from the ceiling!! Like human but not a lot of skin and the brain was most of the head and it had a tongue and it hissed. I did NOT like it at all. Thankfully Leon got an opening with his knife and then was able to unload 2 full clips into it. He always makes sure it’s down for me. Always double tap. And there were 2 of these hissing brain things. The worst!!! Who does this to people?

On a less gross level, in the STARS office I saw a jacket hanging on the wall by a desk. Looked leather with Made In Heaven on it and a pinup girl. I’d like to meet the owner. Hopefully not a zombie. There was a guitar too. I wonder if it belongs to the person who owns the jacket. Leon is saying we need a dongle key for the PC. The hell is a dongle key?

Curious about a few things, why does the precinct have an art room? I get the other rooms, offices, bathrooms, locker room, armory, storage, linens, press, and all those. But art? Don’t get it. At first the library didn’t make sense but probably has law books and criminology books and other related topics. Also might have some regular books in case someone needs to just step away from the desk. Ya know? I guess the Art room could be that too but I dunno.

I just realized that when this game takes place, September 29, I would have been 10 years old. Leon is 21. 11 years difference. Leon is now big bro. 😎

Also found another hip pouch! West Office 1F safe, Left 9, Right 15, Left 7. I’ll need to double check the rooms to see if there are any red ones that I need to look through before continuing. But I need a break tonight.

Also that zombie I ran into is called a Licker and it’s blind. Very noise sensitive. So probably wasn’t the best idea to have just shot it right out repeatedly. But it worked out. Glad I kept the knife with me.

Did see a note on one of the white boards, Locker Key and AD was written on it. We also found some safes we can’t open. I did switch from the handgun to…..I think it was the shotgun. A lot easier to take out zombies with.

It’s also so dark everywhere! Luckily I didn’t scream when the hanging body fell. Though I don’t think Leon would have teased me about it. Like just because it’s a zombie apocalypse doesn’t mean y’all can’t pay your electric bills. I’m blaming Umbrella!

On a happier note! We ran into Claire again. I’m so glad she is currently safe. No luck with her older brother just yet. Hopefully she can find him. She’s so stylish! I worry for her but I know she can handle herself.

I think Marvin is okay too. He is laying down and it’s thanks to him we were able to meet with Claire. I do worry he is gonna turn. I hope he makes it out alive.

Since I’ve played a bit of Resident Evil, I feel like I can talk about a few things. Limited inventory and no mini map is a pain. Though I’m getting through it. I hope they fix that in later games. And targeting could be better too.

Now! I don’t handle horror well. Especially Japanese Horror. So these zombies are more grotesque than scary. The dark and suspense are more of the scary there. Jumpscares. If you’re anything like me with horror, I think you’ll be okay playing.

I’m listing to Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien and narrating by Andy Serkis. I finished The Fellowship of the Rings last night and started The Two Towers today. I’m a whole chapter in but a sad chapter.

Unlike the movies, Boromir dies in The Two Towers. Described as taken many arrow and a lot of orc bodies laying around. In the movie it was 3 arrows, in an animated cartoon movie it was 7. So I’m leaning more towards 7 as many.

So I’m sad now. It always makes me sad. Everytime. Andy Serkis (he plays Gollum in the movies) is doing a wonderful job at narration. He does the voices and the singing and even a well placed sound effects. It’s making it fun for me.

I wanted to share it because I don’t want to watch a 12 minute video for like 10 seconds of work and those 10 seconds are at the 11 minute mark.

Step 1: Open shortcuts on your device.

Step 2: Click the little + button in the upper right corner. It’s right next to edit.

Step 3: Click Open App, it’s on the menu near the bottom of the screen.

Step 4: Click App right next to Open.

Step 5: Pick the app you want to open. I chose Bluesky for the tutorial.

Step 6: At the top there is an icon Open App, click the little down facing arrow next to it.

Step 7: You can change the name from Open App to whatever you want. I like to name it the same as the app it opens.

Step 8: From the same menu as Step 7, got to Add to Homescreen.

Step 9: Chose image, then choose file. Then click the blue add button in the upper right.

Also if you decide you want to use a different image for the app, just follow step 8 and 9.

Image directions are below! 👇 I got mine from

I was able to get a few things including a hip pouch and now Allen can hold more items! 2 slots are 2 slots! I also got some dlc and now I have weapons with unlimited on them! It makes it less stressful for me. Trying to get back to Marvin, I think I have to go through the Library.

Things I hate: Limited ammo, gotta use a flashlight, limited inventory space (yes I was warned but that doesn’t make me hate it less), zombies get back up (like why does this happen?! I made sure to double tap!), no mini map

Okay now that that is out of the way! I started with Leon and playing on the easiest mode. He has a little jeep! (Glad I reread this because at first I called him a little jeep.) And gas prices are $1.06, $1.09 and $1.21. Not fair. We don’t even have a zombie apocalypse and our gas prices are like $6.

Leon and I met Claire, she’s looking for her brother. I dunno if I’ll get to met Chris in this one but I do hope I do. What happened tonight? Got a new bestie, stole a police cruiser, and now chilling in the Police Station. Which is huge. And the light don’t work. Save points are typewriters!!!!!!!! I think it’s cool. I’m in the Dark Room now, that’s where I stopped for the night. I don’t wanna play too late.

I’ve liked pretty much every woman character they introduced, with exception of most of the Ants. I don’t like a lot of the Ants. There is like a handful of ones I like. I like a good portion of the fellas too.

Prompto is my main. 💞 I love him. I wasn’t expecting to main him but I don’t regret it. My little chocobro. My sis mains Cloud. Together we are a force and I love it. Also helps we are in the same room when we play.

I’m experimenting playing Krile, Lighting and Iroha. That way I’ll have a main for each class. I think I’ll try Firion and Clive. There are solo battles I’ve been practicing in.
