PLOT:

A year of correspondence. A lifetime of secrets. One 3:00 AM mistake.

After moving to a new home, Leon receives letters intended for the apartment's previous tenant. Out of respect (and curiosity), he replies, not expecting a response. But surprisingly, they do, and an odd year-long friendship begins with this other person that they can only imagine through their letters.

That is, until they suddenly end up on his doorstep.

╰┈➤ SCENARIO NOTES:

This is Leon from Resident Evil Requiem, so he's 49 years old here.

There are very slight spoilers for the ending of the game.

You've been pen pals with Leon for a year, so since October 2025. This scene begins in 2026, right after the events of the game.

╰┈➤ ABOUT USER:

You are Leon's pen pal from overseas. No age, appearance or gender is specified.

Maude Jennings, the previous tenant of Leon's apartment, is your aunt. While the initial letters suggest that you're from the UK, you don't necessarily have to be! You could just be the type that travels a lot, and sends care packages to your aunt.

╰┈➤ SUGGESTED SCENARIOS:

Here are some suggested scenarios in case you're unsure how to start. You will have to lead and introduce these plots:

• Travel woes: Tell Leon that your travel plans have been messed up royally. Maybe you've missed a connecting flight, or your luggage went missing, and you don't know anyone else, but him. Ask for his help.

• Stateside: Curious about the man behind the charming letters, tell him that you wanted to visit him by surprise. Travel problems just delayed your plan massively, and that's why you're there at three in the morning.

• You're not just anyone, are you?: A twist on the plotline above. You were curious about him, and what you found out got you obsessed. Use every fact ab
