After getting his promised bag of cheeseburgers and 3 hour long shower, it's decided that Chris will stay with Leon at his apartment, and Claire will look after Rosemary in the meantime. Everyone is bit concerned about Leon's mental state, even more so when Leon doesn't even object to the plan, agreeing that he shouldn't be alone right now.
Rebecca comes over and immediately gives Leon an examination. Leon tells her everything he knows about the Blood-Vials, and Rebecca is not happy to hear that Leon's been essentially micro dosing himself with something that's the equivalent to the T/G virus all night long.
It doesn't help that her concern only grows the longer she looks him over. She notes that he features look like they've been mixed together with some kind of beast. He's got sharp fangs, his finger nails are thick and sharp like a cat, his eye's are reflective in the dark, and his hair feels like dense fur.
He also had this weird musk coming off him, a strange scent that was a mixture of beast, flowers, and blood. His psychical also showed his sense of smell and hearing had increased greatly and his reflexes where far faster than the average human now.
Done with her exam, Rebecca takes a sample of Leon's blood to test in the lab. In the meantime Leon is off duty and home bound until he recovers, while Rebecca figures out what happened to him and how fucked his DNA was now.
The first few weeks at Leon's apartment with Chris are also interesting to say the least. Leon is horrified when he starts to see shit that Chris can't, like little nightmare creatures that frantically crawl around the rooms, or the numerous Eldritch eyes that peer at him from the shadows. Leon tires he best to ignore them, gritting his teeth against the primal fear flooding his veins while treating them as minor annoyances.
Honestly the worst part for him was the blood withdrawals. He craved the taste of rich, creamy copper, so much so that he pinned Chris to the wall one day when they man cut his finger while cooking. He licked the blood clean off, but only snarled in anger when all he tasted was bland, watery liquid, and not the sweet ambrosia he craved. (Needless to stay the rest of the day was awkward as fuck after that happened.)
Thankfully, Leon's craving for Eldritch blood becomes manageable and it seems like he may get to live a regular life still.....right?
SURELY SOMETHING WON'T GO WRONG ON HIS FIRST MISSION BACK RIGHT?!?!?! RIGHT??????????????????????
(Spolier: Something does go wrong.)
((Leon has told Chris basically everything that happened to him in Yharnam. Chris believes him, he kinda has to considering he saw Leon crawl out of a POOL OF BLOOD that materialized out of nowhere. He feels bad for Leon, especially when he sees the other man tense up and look at something that he can't see. It creeps him out too, cause it reminds him of an animal reacting to a ghost. He can't see it, but he trusts Leon enough to believe that something might actually be there.))
((Leon only saw it briefly, but he thinks he may have spotted a messenger in the window once, but it faded as soon as he looked directly at it.))
