Out of the two of them, Claire very much recognizes Alice has the most to lose which is why she often tries to self sacrifice.
Claire while, is the definition of surviving Humanity, Alice IS humanity.
Claire knows how hard the world is. Her brother raised her. She’s seen some shit. It’s so draining. But she’s never seen it drain so much out of someone like it does to Alice but she’s also never see someone fight so hard with almost nothing like Alice does.
Claire knows she has people counting on her. But she knows towards the end of TFC Alice, while the world is resting on her shoulders, only has one person left she truly cares about. And it’s her. Claire has Alice but she has survivors. Reasons to keep her head high.
No one compares to Alice. Not because she’s dependent but because there’s a bond, inexplicable, strong bond she grips onto. It’s a last thread to actual people for Alice. Something she feels so strongly.
So yes. Alice self sacrifices. She’d do it again and again and again if Claire got to live. Without a second thought. Alice doesn’t have many people and arguably Claire understands her the best. Because of this, Claire is so soft with Alice. So… tender, loving, and unmoving. Resolute to make sure she knows she’s not alone.
And it’s also why Alice gets smacked Everytime she offers a “oh btw it could kill me” plan and can never change Claire’s mind when she refuses to let her go through with said plan.
“I see why Chris was scared of you. That hurt. Wait! It’s a good plan! Claire come back! What if-”
Say what you want about the Resident Evil movie franchise, but there is no denying that The Final Chapter is the fairytale ending any gore loving lesbian deserves. Straight people’ve got that Tristan and Isolde and Romeo and Juliet bullshit, no thank you. I’d rather have two women on a rock of zombie corpses enjoying cloned memories and sunlight. I mean have you ever seen anything more romantic than this?!
Though I do worry a little about their olfactory senses. But still. Screw marriage equality, this is what gay liberation looks like.
real-heh: Resident Evil: The Final Chapter Claire x Alice #i don’t even know why there is so little lesbians in this fandom#i mean this shit is gay as fucking hell#i think it’s my sacred duty to show this shit to everybody#they are MARRIED GUYS#COME ON#the Fucking Resident Evil Franchise ended with two lesbians alive and […]

I’m a lesbian Resident Evil fan. These are not intelligent movies, the plot erratically skips from track to track from movie to movie and the only thing that’s actually consistent is Alice being badass and being propped up by other badass women. And that’s why I like it. Attractive women with guns in well-choreographed fight scenes with the undead and various beasts that all look like they’ve been styled by a leatherdaddy out of Berghain. And women who also share dialogue with each other that’s not specifically about the men in the movies. What’s not to like?! I’m a lesbian, not an elitist cineast. So yeah, this is definitely my kind of movie/s.
Went to see the last one the other weekend and loved it, even though it retconned pretty large parts of the series and destroyed my headcanon of lesbian Claire Redfield. Still it was a pretty good ending to the series. It was the kind of ending I needed right now. Obviously this sent me into a RE spin again and I simply had to rewatch the other movies. And hoe-boi, that’s some good gay shit. I mean I’ve always been aware of the subtext, I’m always acutely aware of that even when it barely has a pulse, but I’d forgotten or not fully realised how truly consistent the gay is, in all of them (maybe not so much second one, but I blame that mostly on Valentine not playing ball chemistry-wise, because the writing is there to gay up if you want to). To be fair the only way the movies actually make sense is with a bisexual Alice.
