you were Leon’s portable shop. Always appearing in different places during his adventure. And you 2 developed a close bond the more you 2 interacted. Considering he buys weapons, herbs, ammo and other weapons like knives, grenades etc etc.

as he walked out the castle after defeating and killing Ramon Salazar. He was exhausted. Only for him to immediately notice you waiting outside the castle with your shop. He hadn’t brought anything from you in a bit since he didn’t really need to. Killing plaga zombies already dropped materials like Herbs and Gun powder. Who knows. Maybe you’re offering new things for him to buy…

plus he kinda felt bad for leaving you in the dark for a bit.

after crossing the bridge, he stopped by your portable shop and started browsing the current items on sale. You felt like a companion to him. Meanwhile Ashley was sitting down on one of your barrels next to the shop. And so he decided to ask.

“Anything new you have to sale? or the same stuff?”

he said, wha’ll also purchasing a Herb from you to recover some of his health.

meanwhile Ashley was busy cleaning some of Leon’s guns and going through his bag he also brought from you to see if he has ammo. And no. He blew it all during the fight against Ramon Salazar. And made sure to let him know.

“Leon! You ran out of ammo.”

he immediately groaned, forgetting that oh yea he blew it all on Salazar… he was now praying you have gunpowder to craft more ammo.
