Lerry

"Leon’s not just anyone. He saved my life back in Raccoon City."

- Sherry to Jake Muller, Resident Evil 6.

Lerry is the het ship between Leon Kennedy and Sherry Birkin from the Resident Evil fandom.

Resident Evil 2 (2019)
Sherry is accompanied by Claire Redfield for a majority of her story. It’s when Leon reaches the train system beneath the Umbrella lab; located under Raccoon City do they meet for the first time. Claire and Sherry are on a train heading for the exit when the lab is in self-destruct. Another train car attaches to their; Leon just having managed to jump aboard it. With the train in full motion, the carriage door slides open to reveal Leon running through. Leon sees Claire and Sherry and asks who the child is, with Claire telling him her name is Sherry. Soon, the back of the train car is attacked by the level 4 mutated William Birkin. Leon goes to handle it, telling Claire to stay back and protect Sherry. Not long after, William is left to burn in a massive explosion.

By morning, they’re walking away from the city when Sherry asks if Leon and Claire are “like boyfriend and girlfriend,” to which Leon tells her no, that him and Claire had actually just met that night. Sherry notices and points out a semi-truck coming their way, and think they might be able to give them a ride. Leon tells Claire to get Sherry out of there while he waits for the truck to come closer. The man in the truck flips Leon off as he drives past. With the potential danger out of the way, Claire and Sherry come back to Leon’s side. Leon reaches for Sherry’s left hand and Claire reaches for Sherry’s right; the three of them walk hand-in-hand, continuing down the road when Sherry happily proclaims Leon and Claire “can adopt her” and that they can get a puppy and parrot.

Fanon
Following Sherry’s return to the series in Resident Evil 6, she’s a grown 26 year old woman; since then a handful of people have been shipping them romantically. Leon and Sherry’s relationship could be augured as a friendship, as they are in canon, or as a father/daughter type from their Resident Evil 2 days when Sherry was 12 and Leon was 21, despite Leon being only 9 years older.
