-----------------------٩(◕‿◕｡)۶----------------------

Newly Cursed:

Felt so lost when Miranda first cursed her.

Couldn't figure out if she was scared or angry that there was no longer love or interest for the things and people she used to feel deeply for.

It turned into obsession instead.

Sometimes she'd catch herself zoning out, how could she not just stop functioning every now and then when she no longer feels?

Overtime she stopped zoning out, functioning on full autopilot instead.

Cut off her sisters due to not knowing how she'd look them in the eye and have them catch her not feeling anything for them anymore.

She may no longer be able to feel, but she still doesn't want to hurt her sisters.

Ends up obsessed with taking down Miranda because she sees it as a way to make up to her family for cutting them off.

Curse Lifted:

The first thing she does on her own is to sit underneath a tree's shade to just feel the gentle breeze.

She cries silently, not knowing how it was possible to miss such a common experience in human life.

She goes for a jog on a day when it's sunny and she's free. Pushing herself to her limits until her vision swims due to exertion.

She lies down on the grass for a moment and laughs, carefree as the sun shines down on her. Letting the heat draw out more sweat from her and simply just basking in how she's able to feel it now.

Bela stands under light rains, never once passing up the chance to feel the small pitter patters of water on her skin. She smiles with glee every single time.

MC Romance:

While cursed, she definitely gives off "Rhodessa - Kisame" vibes.

Bela started to theorise that she was falling for MC when she brought them chicken soup.

It didn't slip her notice that MC tried to steer the conversation towards her mundane life.

Not her accomplishments, not her riches, not her connections- Just her and what's in her mind.

Looks like she takes the lead in their relationship, but actually discreetly let's MC make the decisions.

Bela is a sucker for MC's chicken tinola.

MC taught her a bit about Filipino pop culture.

She may not have perfected the language yet, but she definitely nailed the:

"Science tells us that our genetic imprint predetermines your life, your fate, your choices. Pinanganak kang bobo, lalaki kang bobo, mamamatay kang bobo." (Translation is in the author's notes below.)

Bela also adopted the habit of saying "Bwisit" whenever she gets mildly frustrated;

And "Putangina" whenever she gets very frustrated.

She loves how those words just sound satisfyingly crunchy.

Likes "Cup of Joe"

Learned Tagalog to understand what the lyrics say.

Once the loop is broken and she remembers all of the things her and MC had done across all past loops, she coins "Cup of Joe - Ikaw Pa Rin" as her favorite song.

MC is thankful that Bela doesn't remember the times in the loops when she turned into a Zombie. They have sworn to take those memories to the grave, unwilling to subject to Bela to it.

Whenever Bela gets flustered by MC doing little romantic things for her, she'd try to downplay her swooning by raising an eyebrow and telling MC "Bading, bading- Bakla, bakla!"

Bela is able to sing Tagalog songs she loves without an English accent but whenever she speaks Tagalog normally, the English accent always bleeds in.

MC always smiles, finding it absolutely adorable.

MC taught Bela how to eat a chicken wing by removing the lower joint so that it's easier to take the meat off.

On her first attempt, she somehow choked on one of the wing bones.

Bela has forbidden MC from letting literally anyone other than the two of them know.

Daniela knows this though, and she's waiting for the right time to use the story as blackmail.

(Y'all CANNOT convince me na hindi chismosa si MC sa mga tamang tao.)

Once saw someone flirt with MC on Christmas season.

Went right up to MC, placed her arm around their shoulder and told them in the sweetest tone she could muster that if the person doesn't back off, she'll ensure that "Sasama siya sa kwitis papuntang langit."

----------------------٩(◕‿◕｡)۶-----------------------

A/N: I NEED more instances of the game reinforcing the canonical fact that our MC is a Filipino, but I understand why they didn't because it can absolutely break immersion in gameplay for non-Filipino players. But if any non-Filos are interested I do encourage you guys to look up Gen Z Filipino culture because I can assure you guys- We're unhinged on a different level 😭

Happy New Year everyone! This is my gift to every fellow Resident Lover players like me, and for every Bela simp as well! I encourage y'all to download Resident Lover. It's completely free, and the game devs have an account here on Tumblr (@resident-lover) with complete lore guides! The way they wrote each story line truly has not, and will not ever disappoint!

Filipino Phrases - Translations:

Pinanganak kang bobo, lalaki kang bobo, mamamatay kang bobo. - You were born stupid, you'll grow up stupid, and you'll die stupid.

Bwisit, Putangina - Tagalog Curse words.

Sasama siya sa kwitis papuntang langit - I'll send them up the sky alongside the fireworks.

Bading, bading, bakla, bakla! - Gay, gay, gay, you're gay! (Common teasing mechanic for gay friends amongst Filipinos.)

Y'all cannot convince me na hindi chismosa si MC sa tamang tao. - Y'all cannot convince me that MC isn't a gossip with the right people.

May I request the Mother Miranda and Lady Dimitrescu with a s/o that insists on wearing a gas mask. Like they never take it off, and spend their lei on filters, and they swear there is something wrong with them. Then one day, they get lucky and their partner just walks up to them without it on and they are breathtaking?

Birb and vambire.

Mother Miranda and Alcina Dimitrescu with an s/o that is never seen without a gas mask walking up to them one day, maskless and breathtaking.

(Gender neutral).

Warnings: n/a

Masterlists here!

Mother Miranda

Generally speaking, Miranda hates not knowing things. Unanswered questions? They won’t be unanswered after she sets her sights on them. You are one of few exceptions. 

Don’t think she’s never tried to ask anything, though. 

“Why do you wear that thing?”

“Why do you wear that?” you countered, pointing at her bird mask. 

...Because it looks pleasing with her robes and adds to her bird aesthetic.

Miranda wasn’t going to say that, though. All you received in response was a stare that would make most villagers quiver in fear. So...  touché. After that, for the most part, she doesn’t ask you something more than once.

How do you manage to eat right in front of her without removing your mask? Miranda will just have to theorize. 

What does your face look like? She’ll have to give her imagination the exercise it never gets.

“Why do you insist on wearing that mask?” Miranda asks again one day while you’re walking beside her.

“There’s something wrong with me,” you answer vaguely. And you don’t say anything more. 

Months after that interaction, you enter Miranda’s lab like you would any other day. 

She looks up briefly, returning your greeting. Emphasis on brief. She doesn’t notice that the straps of your mask are missing from the back of your head. 

“I brought you coffee,” you tell her, setting a mug down in front of her. But also away from her important papers and equipment, of course. 

The fact that your voice is significantly clearer ought to be a better indicator that something is different, but Miranda is so engrossed in her work that the difference doesn’t process. 

“Thank you, darling.” 

You continue to linger.

“Is there something you need?” She picks up the coffee, then tips her head up to look at you properly.

Now, Miranda carries herself with poise (sans that one time you got her to dance with you) (and also when you first started initiating physical affection with her) so she doesn’t spill hot coffee into her lap upon managing to miss her mouth, but she gets closer to doing that than she has in a long, long time. 

Not only can Miranda actually see your face, but your face is one that’s utterly striking. She’s intent on taking in every aspect of it. 

"The straps broke." You hold up your mask, seeming uncharacteristically nervous. "Do you know where I can find something to fix it with?"

Miranda doesn't say much of anything while the straps are being repaired, but she's certainly going to bring up the incident again later.

Alcina Dimitrescu

Did Alcina ask you to take off your gas mask not long (aka almost immediately) after first meeting you? 

Yes, she did.

Did her tone make it seem more like a demand than a request? 

Yes, it did.

Did the way you flatly declined sort of surprise her? 

Also yes. 

Early on, it drove Alcina nuts that you always have the thing on.

But since you mean so much to her, she just comes to accept it. 

Further fueling that is your insistence that you need to wear it.

Alcina’s offered more than once to get you a nicer gas mask but you’ve never accepted.

She semi-frequently buys filters for you even though you can definitely afford them with your own Lei. 

One day, Bela finds your mask draped over the helmet of one of the suits of armor. She presents it to her mother simply because she runs into her first.

Your gas mask and no you nearby worries Alcina. You sleep with it on. She, your partner, has never seen even a glimpse of what lies beneath it. Something must have happened to you for it to be left in such a random spot.

Before Alcina even gets the chance to finish telling Bela to start looking for you, footsteps begin approaching.

She turns around.

Surprise crosses her features for only a second, but the sight of your face is something that she instantly wants to try and commit to memory. You're absolutely stunning.

"Alci, one of the maids stole my mask. I don't—"

"It's right here, dragostea mea."

Please say that you know the name of the maid so she can be... taken care of.

a lil thing that I've been thinking about after the doodle thing... I'd like to think that reader also doodles and its different sinners each paper and there's a time when Nightingale saw a doodle of herself on reader's paper and it made Nightingale's day a bit better 🥹

(i will identify myself as 🖌️ anon now.. if its not taken ofc)

Awww Reader drawing chibi versions of all the sinners on her assignments 🥺

I can imagine Reader doodling Nightingale one day and she’s doing something cute like holding hands with a chibi version of Reader. Once Nightingale sees the assignment that Reader handed in, her heart immediately starts pounding when she sees the cute drawings of chibi her and chibi Reader doing silly stuff together 💕💕

Oh how Nightingale wishes she could keep the assignment for herself. It looks like the TA is not immune to Reader’s adorable charms <3

The Dimitrescu Sisters Spicy Headcannons

(A/N- I had to make this. Do I need to say more?)

(Warning: NSFW content and FEM! Reader)

🫀Bela Dimitrescu🫀

- She’s a dominant, a soft dom to be specific, though sometimes she has her rare moments where she’s hard on you >:)

- Bela quickly learns where all of your most sensitive spots are and how to make you scream with utter pleasure (she will most definitely make you scream but you don’t mind, right??)

- Speaking of screaming, your voice is a huge turn on for her. Moaning her name is a quick way to make her dripping wet.

- Loves to use her body to make you feel good. For example, using her hard working fingers to finger you, using her skillful tongue to eat you out, tensing her thigh while you’re riding it to add to the pleasure, etc. etc.

☕️Cassandra Dimitrescu☕️

- Dominate. Good luck trying to top her.

- Sex with her is intense but full of romance and passion.

- Sometimes she likes to have quickies and sometimes she likes to spend hours and hours being intimate with you (who’s sleep? I don’t know her)

- Loves to tease you and make you all flustered, she finds it so adorable (and because her name is Cassandra Dimitrescu) Also whenever she takes off her clothes, she makes sure to take it off very slowly to have you anticipating for whats to come.

- Big on sex toys, she’s willing to try almost anything. (What her girl wants, she gets) She also is really happy that you trust her enough to try new things and be so vulnerable around her.

🛹Daniela Dimitrescu🛹

- She’s a switch, tendency to be submissive.

- When it’s one of those times where she’s dominating, she gets all red and flustered, but can you blame her you just look so god damn hot that she can’t help it.

- The first time that you got naked in front of her, her face went completely red and she was struggling to speak. The only words that came out of her mouth was “W-wow..you look..beautiful.”

- Loves when you kiss all over her body, it makes her feel so loved and cherished.

- She really likes it when you praise and reassure her. Of course she praises you too, but that’s an understatement because she basically worships your body, making any insecurities you may have disappear (why doesn’t Daniela exist in real life??)

Masterlist

You mentioned a whole ago about the "sacrificial bride trope" so I keep imagining the villagers leaving the reader on a mountaintop or something as a "sacrifice" to the dragon -

Only for the reader to randomly walk into town one day with a Dragon baby in one arm and a sack of gold coins from her dragon wife for "grocery shopping"

And yes, The village elders did indeed faint upon hearing that you and the dragon did indeed copulate 😏

- 💖

PFFFT—

The moment your fellow villagers see you, they’re in shock because one: YOU’RE ALIVE? And two: YOU HAVE A BABY?

Besides the obvious, I can see the other villagers confused as to how you look so healthy and draped in riches. Though they sacrificed you to be a “bride” for your dragon wife, they didn’t expect you to be in such good condition (let alone be alive in the first place) yet here you were, smiling and cooing at the tiny baby in your arms…

Speaking of the baby, everyone’s eyes are practically wide as saucers when they see the half human, half dragon hybrid in your arms. It doesn’t take long for them to put two and two together, and realize you let the dragon bang you during your time up in the mountains 😨

Well…at least you were alive and well, right? 😅
