How they came to be. (Their parents had interco-)

Each of them was transported to your world (and living room, OG was practically thrown into your face) at a certain time. While it may seem unrelated at first, the moment of being transported are actually connected!

It happened first with the Original™. You were planted on the couch, controller in hand, once again trying to beat him. After one, two, three- INFINITE fails, you put down the controller and sighed.

So, guess what you did next?

Correct! You wished to beat him personally, even though you knew you wouldn't even be able to touch anything in his surroundings. Thanks to your amusing attempts at beating a video game boss and gathered energy, you managed to peaque an entity's attention. (Me. I was the entity. Call me Aiko A.A.V. Ioldas! That's my persona's name!)

That way, OG was sucked into a wormhole after the first bossfight and while genuinely panicking, got spat out of your TV (Or cinema canvas thing. Some have that at home, it's rad.) Either way, two worlds collided. Literally. Your....your ribs haven't yet recovered.

Remake!!!

You had been forced to stay at home for some days and forced to tell OG everything you knew (Oh, what a bad fate. Oh no.) And of course, prove that he was actually from a video game.

Which led to playing the first timeline and then the second. The remake.

He was silently simmering, while you played Re4R, after having explained why the short name was funny to you (Re4R = Rear -> the behind of something/someone).

Oh, okay. So. The 'company' had decided that he wasn't worth keeping, huh? He kinda knew that from somewhere. The Remake was better in visual quality, yes, but what the fuck was wrong with his voice?

While he was wondering about that, you wondered about if the Remake would get flung out of your TV too.

And your entity did not let you down!

He got flung out of the TV, with a brightness which bordered on the Glitterforce transformations. (Watch it, it's cool. The anime, I mean. Sweet.)

He did not land on you, much to your relief. Way less to OG's relief, because he barely dodged the canon ball.

By now, you were wondering whether or not your television was cursed. It atleast didn't react when you yelled 'Hallelujah' at it.

Yeah.

Remake was also not at all thrilled to be here. He had been taken here, after the first confrontation between him and Leon. Where was he? Why did someone looking like him stand there, holding a knife? Why did you dare to threaten him with a freaking porcelain bowl, while yelling something about 'calming down' and 'don't test whose knife is sharper'? He didn't take lightly to impersonation, however, stopped when one crucial detail had been dropped. Reluctant, he decided to listen to you. (It's similar to how one has a breakdown or an episode and you are supposed to snap them out of it, by saying something so random that they are too perplex than to continue their episode.)

What luck! Your home wouldn't be destroyed today!! (It would, in the future, no worries.)

Remake and OG already didn't get along that well...atleast in your opinion, but then again, they weren't as passive as you were...they were even less fond of the names you gave them. OG would be more pleased if you didn't call him at all. Remake didn't like being a remake. None of them liked having been destined to die, for amusement.

And now....Tsum! Oh, Tsum...this beautiful being...you showed him to Remake, while explaining everything. He wasn't exactly more patient with long explanations, but you had some experience with keeping it short, thanks to OG.

You showed him your collection, as....embarrassing as it was, because you were a fan of the fictional. He asked if you had no life. You answered with 'correct'. (Having hobbies, is having a life. Fangirling in your free time, is a hobby. You are in this reality though, but having a life does not equal to wide social circles and being busy all the time.) Yeah, he still thinks of it as weird. Very weird.

And when you noticed an expression of disgust directed towards the tsum, you introduced him to it. It was when he stared down at it, disapprovingly and you made a fake sad expression, squeezing it, that it let out a squeak.

Shocked, you let it fall.

It crawled underneath the closet.

You did not dare going into that room for one day. You did not dare anything, because what the fuck, what if you had been the cursed one? Perhaps you were hallucinating!?!? Perhaps you were stuck in a lucid dream!????!?!!!

You were then ripped out of that thought, because what does it matter if you are or aren't? Enjoying your existence is better than knowing the truth. The truth only hurt. It made you depressed, because knowing did not euqal being able to do anything against it.....

Ahem, where were we??

Ah, yes, Tsum. OG finally had enough of your breakdown and snatched the plushie. He...wasn't fond of it either. Ew. What do you mean, that's supposed to be him? And why did it have a beret? Did that mean that a tsum military existed? Technically, yes. But it had too small limbs than to be productive....and was too slow compared to a human...and where was his knife, huh?

It accepted being seated on your knee, after you apologised with a protein bar you had left as your only snack.

Since then, the protein bars have been it's tribute and diet.

You.... didn't know how it could digest it. Neither did you know why it didn't have a metabolism...

Either way, it was alive, grumpy and had a comically deep 'eep', which the other somehow understood, but refused to translate.

Last but not least....OJ! He was brought here, after the events of the game 'Operation Javier'. His arm was injured and the neighbours may have heard a gunshot, to which you told the police that you heard something loud aswell, however didn't know where it had come from. Perhaps someone's car had given in?

OJ, being the most level-headed, found the other two weird, for having injected themselves with a viru- WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU MEAN THEY HAD EGGS INJECTED!?! EW!

You suspect, that OG and Remake hadn't known either, but they were too prideful than to admit that.

Tsum and him got along fairly well. OJ has questions aswell, but the other two quickly explained it to him, before you could start an infodump. Like them, he would like to go home, but how?

For now, he'd stay, until his arm got better. OG, Remake and even Tsum, side-eyed him on that matter. Either way, he recieved the honour of the couch, due to injury privileges. To no one's surprise, no one cared. They've slept in and on worse places.

KFC headcanons:

Remake and OG kinda get into each others hair a lot. Or atleast, more or less.

OJ doesn't care as much as the other two, about being fictional and perhaps a remake. (In the end, in terms of timeline, he comes before both. He heavily relies on that info, which is why they can't really move him on that topic.)

(Inspired by: Wesker turned family by @thatgirlgames)

Tsum:

He is about as big as a water bottle and hides a lot. Not because he is shy, but because he is actually watching. A lot. Likes snacking on protein bars, idk man, it's just him alr? If you make him a lil parcour course, that'd be nice of you- Watch your step! He's rarely on the ground, that'd be dangerous for him. Atleast since he got stepped on. I'm not gonna say names here but OG looking mighty suspicious rn......

That being said, his camp is on top of a bookshelf. Specifically the one where you used to have fan articles of all kinds of characters. Yes. Used to. He didn't think much about them and just threw them down to make place for himself. He isn't fast at all, but mostly gets carried around by OJ, because Tsum isn't as weird as the others who infected themselves. Or he gets carried around by you, until you finished making little bridges for him, above headlevel. Hopefully no one destroys them, they were quite tedious to make....

OG:

We decided to call him OG. Which is kind of confusing, because we call the other one OJ. Perhaps DS would be a better name? Uh, either way, he acts like a grumpy granpa, tbh. Sounds like one aswell, but hey, you like his voice anyways. Not that he'd care. He is not fond of Tsum, or the others. Even less so, after finding out that he is the OriginalTM. Why did they change him? How dare anyone change him? Finding out that he's been nothing but a game figure doomed to die for entertainment, kind of threw him into a silent identity crisis. Just like....everyone else. Except for Tsum, he used to be merely a stuffed plush, so....he's cold most of the time, so make sure to give him some space. And also every piece of data you have about him, Leon or Wesker. And the B.O.W.s...and Los Illuminados...everything, just infodump on him.

Remake:

You decided to call him Remake. He does not like that, because it implies he didn't have any choice over even his existence. After telling him, that this name is similar to how one gives a newborn baby a name and that his parents didn't care about the his of freedom of choice either, on that matter....you..didn't get beat up, but he locked you out of your own home for some hours until he finished mulling over what you had said. He called Tsum a 'rat' and since then, regularly wakes up with bites everywhere. And I mean EVERYWHERE. They all have beef with each other anyways, but Tsum is really on the top hated list here.

OJ:

Now that he isn't in a life-threatening situation anymore, he has time to heal his wounds. They don't heal as properly as wished, naturally. The arm? Still kinda useless. You know what else he has time for? Being jealous. As everyone else, he doesn't like the thought of having being controlled by a narrative. But what really gets him to explode is -spoiler alert- being ignored or being brushed over. OG can still kinda understand being ignored. Okay, coming back at a later time, even if you'll regret it. Remake? If it isn't as important as his business, then you'll have to change priorities for a minute. Tsum just sits on your head or shoulder until you are done, so you won't forget to listen to him. (As if you'd be able to understand his 'eep's and squeaks. Only the others can.) But OJ? Yeah no. You will listen to him. Right now, in fact. No, he doesn't care about your game, it's just a game, pause it or restart.

Either way, you WILL land on a government's watchlist, no matter where you live. They are not harmonic at all, especially because their personalities are very similar, merely driven by different priorities. After being transported into your world, however, they share one goal. No, it's not about who got the best knife skills. It's about making your life a lot more difficult. (Okay, and who got the best knife skills. They all love their knives.)

This references my little series called KFC.

OG and OJ definitely get annoyed at Remake sometimes. OG, because he dislikes the thought of being scrapped and remodeled. And OJ....huh....why does he dislike him? Probably because Remake comes across as a bit....arrogant. A little. And OJ already has some problems with that, due to...well, obvious reasons.

So, OG started it. Remake may be the last version, but OG remembers something.

When [reader] told him why she had laughed about the remake of Resident Evil 4.

Because, when you wrote down the shortened version of the name, RE4R, it looks like rear.

You can imagine the nicknames from there on.
