DATING ADA WONG HEADCANNONS — SFW
PAIRING: Ada Wong x GN!Reader
A/N: I’ve probably done a terrible job of characterising Ada, but she’s just so hot and cool (and there’s like no material on her) that I had to do something for her. Let me know if you’re interested in me doing more for her!
Being in a relationship with Ada Wong is by no means an easy feat. This woman is an enigma, and a relationship with her is no different.
The most you could get out of her is potentially an on-and-off type of deal. But if you’re willing to put in the work, then you’ll just have to cope with occasional long distance.
Her love language is along the lines of acts of service. Maybe not in the traditional sense of 'doing the laundry for you', but as we see in her interactions with Leon, she swoops in to save and assist him very often. It's her own kind of affection—it's how we know she cares. So naturally, that would carry across to you.
She has the ability to make you feel like the only person in the world. This is because when Ada does something for you, it’s not out of the kindness of her heart. This woman is a a spy who has and will work for very bad people. So anything that she says, gives or does, is because she wants to—because she cares.
At first, her intense eyes and sultry voice were an intimidating factor about her. But they eventually became some of her most comforting traits.
Ada doesn't use many pet names for you because a good majority of them make her cringe.
However, in an ironic way, she'll address you as 'Sweetheart', 'Kitten', or 'Lover'. In spite of her saying these names out of wry, her voice makes them sound cute. (Referring to VA’s; Sally Cahill, Jolene Anderson, Courtenay Taylor)
If you’re normal—as in you’re not a spy or an agent of any sort—then it’ll essentially be a "living a double life" scenario.
Ada was upfront with you from the beginning about how “busy” her schedule would be. She simply told you that she moves around for work, that the company she works for has strict confidentiality rules, and that thats all you need to know.
While it stings you to know that there's a whole portion of her life that you're absent from, you couldn’t fault her for something she was upfront about.
Getting Ada to open up to you will take time, that’s just a no brainer. As a spy, it goes against her very instincts. So when you first started seeing her, lots of what she told you about herself was fabrication woven with hints of truth.
Ada is the type of person who makes you feel as if she’s opening up to you, when in reality, questions about her background are met with vague responses.
Yet she speaks so charismatically that it makes you believe that she’s sharing more then what she really is.
She’s blunt and outspoken, so if you’re acting jealous then she’ll call you out on it immediately.
While on the jealousy topic, Ada doesn’t really get hit with these feelings. She’s confident in herself and your relationship, which clears up any potential insecurity that could give way to try one feelings. She trusts you enough to believe you wouldn’t do anything like that.
That’s not to say that she’s immune to jealousy, because there are definitely times where she can’t help but feel it swell in her gut.
And if you’re wanting to spice things up in your NSFW life with the presence of others, then she’s happy to discuss it. (Let me know if you want headcannons dedicated to NSFW)
She’s not someone who runs from arguments or conflict, she faces it head on. If there’s any tension in your relationship, you best believe she’ll address it.
If you’re being cold and distant, she’ll force you to sit down and talk to her about what’s bothering you. And when I say force, I mean by any means necessary.
Ada is very protective over you. So if she finds out that somebody’s hurt you? Then she will find out who it was, and she will eliminate them—as well as whoever else she needs to—in order to bring her own brand of justice. Zero fucks given.
If your relationship stands the test of time, there will be a point where she realises that may end up being a permanent fixture in her relatively unstable life.
This will potentially lead to Ada coming clean about who she really is and opening up to you. A very big step for her. One that only comes if you’re in a serious enough relationship.

You know, I know that she was dubbed over (by Sally Cahill, og Ada Wong) because her (Li BingBing’s) accent was “too strong.”
But she sounds really good here. People need to realize that she had to learn English and she sounds really amazing all things considered. It’s kind of a shame that she was dubbed over. I can understand that there were some parts of words that seemed off, and it was clear that she was not a native english speaker. And most people would be able to tell that she can not speak english fully. Although Li BingBing nailed the look of Ada Wong, I can see that maybe they could’ve casted someone else just as good who was also a native english speaker.
I think she still did really well considering the fact that she had to learn English. And a lot of her sentences come off very naturally. But i can completely hear the parts where she struggles. She still has to think in (mandarin) and then translate it into english and then say it with the right accent.
I guess the idea of Ada Wong being “properly” represented by also an Asian voice actress was always a point that we needed to get to eventually.
Lily Gao isn’t a “diversity hire,” in the way that people think that it is.
This is representation. This is a female character who has ALWAYS been portrayed as asian and was always casted by white women. Going so far as to have her face modelled after white women as well.
when you are speaking from a white person’s perspective (and living in a predominantly white area), you will NEVER understand what it’s like to grow up knowing that you are different and look different and sound different.
As an asian woman myself, it’s so disheartening to see that the smallest amount of representation in resident evil (considering that Jill Valentine is entirely white washed at this point) is SUCH A HARD PILL TO SWALLOW FOR SOME PEOPLE. like GOD FORBID we have Ada, an asian woman, FINALLY be voiced by an asian woman. AND DON’T BE A FUCKING DUNCE. we KNOW that she’s voiced by a japanese woman for the japanese version etc. chinese for the chinese version etc. get out of my face with the whataboutism
We’re talking about the english version of the game which has systematically always erased a part of Ada’s asian background. Either by having her be voiced by a white woman, or a having her face modelled after a white woman.
Now we’re not shaming these women at all. I love a lot of the actresses who have portrayed Ada. They all did splendid jobs and have varying degrees of fans for each one. Some love Sally, some love Courtenay, some love Lily, some love Jolene. I’m not the hugest fan of Sally’s campiness but I’ve grown to love it. Courtenay was so smooth and sexy, but sometimes even too sexy for sentences that should’ve been normal sounding imo. Lily was cold (which makes sense for her character) but so expressive at times. Jolene had a rasp that I wasn’t a fan of, but her scenes with Leon were so tender and sweet. That’s all fine and good. We’re free to have our opinions about that
THIS WAS A HUGE RANT ABOUT REPRESENTATION AND ADA LOL SORRY

Many people don't like that the Sole Survivor has a voice, but I love that Courtenay Taylor adds a bit from herself to female Sole Survivor's lines. Like when you get the Sliver Shroud costume from Kent, she does a little "Yay!" and when you ask Deacon why their base was under a Slocum Joe's, she says "That's awesome!"
