Summary
“What’s the deal with whimsy?” he asks her finally, barely able to keep a handle on the childish frustration with the whole thing. It’s been haunting him more than half the trip now and he doesn’t seem to be making any progress. “Why’s everyone so obsessed with it?”

Summary
“It, uh, takes over me sometimes,” he says. His voice is quiet, almost lost beneath the sound of the air rushing around them. “It’s sporting and I’m good at it, but then there’s something else. Beneath my skin, and sometimes it just… bursts out and I like it too much and I can’t stop myself.” He can’t bring himself to speak any louder, can’t bring himself to believe that someone else is hearing him say this. He’s a rowdy and he’s delighted in the rebellion, in the moments of abjection when someone can see the gleam of skillful violence in his eyes and flinch back. Violence is a means to an end, but that’s not all it is to him. “And it’s also the most interesting thing about me. The only thing, really, about me.”

Summary
As fast as it had vanished before, Chris’ anger returns.
Ada Wong is there, behind that door.
That woman who killed his entire teamー the reason he wakes up at night in cold sweats, his excuse for why he chooses lone missions over a team job, and why, frequently, he loses himself at the edge of a bottleーis behind that very door.
Chris kicks it and opens fire.
(Or: Six months after the events in China, Chris stumbles upon Ada Wong on a field mission.)

Summary
“Leon?”
Her own face stared back at her. It gave a jerky nod.
“Ada,” Leon replied and it was a female voice, but deeper, and raspier. “Just making sure, butー this is definitely not normal, is it?”
“It’s not,” Ada said. “It’s not supposed to happen.”
(in which a mission does not go as planned, resulting in Leon and Ada switching bodies)
