lesbian heaven

So many people are missing the point or re9 by constantly arguing over who Leon married and why some other people are wrong/right, harassing devs and everyone involved in the whole thing just to validate their ships and opinions when the best part of shipping is making up ur own playground.

But it rly annoys me how the whole argument is overshadowing the real point of resident evil 9 that capcom poured all of their resources into and got so many people involved.

Like, the main point of resident evil 9 is dreaming about wanting to fuck Leon???? And so many people are refusing to focus on that point and instead are causing some weird wars on each other.

i feel like this is going to be so controversial and so many ppl will not like this but honestly im so fed up with the "leon got married" idea

the way i feel like leon just getting married would cheapen his character so much, yes traumatised people deserve a happy ending too but here is the thing - leon is fictional, fiction sometimes exaggerates things for an effect

he struggles so much with ptsd, survivor's guilt, trauma and his (past) addiction, and is most likely suicidal/doesn't care if he dies or not

this is not a healthy man ready to just marry whoever possible! ppl be saying it would be so cute if he married some random girl (also why is it only women that ppl are suggesting he married??) which feels like such a horrible idea because a relationship with someone who doesn't understand leon's struggles and his line of work would lead to soooo many arguments, problems and miscommunication between them because the other person would NOT understand leon in a way that he needs

ppl are suggesting he married sherry which feels like they do not understand leon's character at all?? that man literally acts like an older brother figure to any younger girl he meets, whether it's sherry or ashley or grace, that man wants to make sure they are OKAY and he would not just marry a girl he knew since she was a child and he was in his 20s

with ada i can only see them getting some kind of promise rings? not married, definitely didn't have a wedding, but instead exchanged rings to remember one another no matter where they are. but then again, does even leon know ada? or does he know what she wants him to know? very weird dynamics, i much more prefer seeing them as platonic soulmates, people who will find each other no matter what

a lot of people are mentioning claire too as the one and only, while i think their relationship in re2 is cute and u see them bond very quickly, even sherry is kinda shipping them, i see it more like a quick fling IF ANYTHING but even then, they met when they were like what? in their 20s? as actual grown ass adults it doesnt seem like a relationship they would get into, imo also including chris in all of that bc i kinda feel like claire being his sister would make things a little bit uncomfy to leon? at least that's how i see it really. also they are both deeply affected by what happened in raccoon city, i fear that they would kinda make each other's trauma responses worse than help each other thru the worst of it

and dont get me started on how people react when someone, even jokingly, suggests chris as leon's spouse HOLY SHIT people go nuts, they literally throw slurs at people for even suggesting that like wtf

anyways, my idea is that the ring is just a memento after raccoon city, hence why sherry also has one. it's just their way of sticking together after being the only ones surviving that hell, a reminder of what happened and to always have it close, it's an important chapter in their lives that changed everything for them after all. reason why leon touched the ring? imo just a way of closing that chapter, a ring reminding him of the night that changed him as a man after he visited raccoon city 28 years later to lay the ghost to rest, to be at peace with everything, to face that city (or what's left of it) and process the pain it caused.

it's so weird to me that capcom just didn't give a straight answer and i also don't like this idea that leon can only get older if he gets married? idk, he doesn't seem the type to marry just let him find happiness and peace in himself, without the need for a relationship but i feel like i'm one of the very few who just don't see him in a relationship, even more marriage

and before someone tries to come in and tell me "just let people enjoy things" i'm not telling you what to do, i'm not telling anyone not to imagine who he married or have fun with ur ships, but the existence of your reality doesn't negate the fact that i can view the situation completely differently and have my own feelings about it :3

HOWEVER

I can't shake off the weird feeling seeing him deal with the David kid and McKay left me with. Its obvious he has some biases and sides with men more than tries to protect women. But the way he handled it... like, McKay they will NEVER make me hate u baby girl. U were right!!!

Robby focuses on the boy so much he refuses to see what is the other outcome. He focuses on the guys life and future, ignoring completely that even David's mother fears that he could hurt or even kill those girls. Its not like McKay just assumed it out of thin air really and the guy was very sus not answering the phone, not going to school and posting vague shit on his ig.

McKay did the right thing calling the police because the good outweighs the bad, at best the guy will have some trouble. At worst, innocent girls will lose their lives to an angry incel kid. And robby did nothing to soothe her worries either! He kept dismissing her over and over, and when u think that he finally got it - he shows that he really doesn't. He doesnt recognise his own privilege and safety as a man while McKay knows that this isn't overreacting and it's a possibility.

Then the shooting happens and David is the sole suspect really. Until they found the shooter, EVERYONE suspected him. But when it turns out it wasnt him, robby does a 180 and immediately attacks McKay in a very immature way esp for an attending in a hospital. The way he punishes her for calling the cops, saying its "her mess to fix" and doesnt defend her when David becomes visibly violent towards her. Robby is just standing there watching it, at no point he steps in to protect HIS RESIDENT and calming down a guy who until few minutes ago seemed like a very dangerous individual.

And the fact that he doesnt check up on her? He tells everyone good job, but then refuses to acknowledge that McKay is also struggling with the whole thing. She reacted out of fear for those girls and was proven wrong, but instead of robby understanding she is met with anger from him? Robby does NOTHING to understand the severity of the situation and refuses to acknowledge that he will NEVER understand such fear women feel when it comes to incel men who would 100% be ready to murder innocent girls because they are insecure.

I like how the pitt shows how they all have their own biases and, like normal people, do not think about EVERY SINGLE POSSIBILITY. However I think that robby should at least take a step in and shut David up when he started verbally abusing McKay. He had the right to be upset, but in a professional setting robby should not allow such language to be thrown in her direction at all. He behaved incredibly immature and proved McKay's point - hatred towards women is pre-programmed in men and she had all the rights to assume the worst before admitting nothing happened (thankfully).
