    Summary

    A collection of one-shots focused on pain and heartache, paired with comfort. This is my Whumptober contribution for 2022.

    **Mind the warnings in each chapter summary**

    Although these are set in the Arcane universe you do not need to be familiar with the fandom to appreciate these works. These will largely center around Caitlyn and Vi but I will touch on others in Arcane as well.

    Summary

    “You’re late tonight, Cupcake,” Vi says.

     

     

    “Ah. Yes. Indeed—well! You understand how Council meetings are. The more tedious and unimportant, the greater their determination to run through the night,” Caitlyn says, stepping behind the counter and reclaiming her bag. “And—shopping! I thought we’d better stock up before we found ourselves utterly bereft of food. I got your favourites, actually. I could make you dinner tonight?”

     

    The offer hangs in the air. Caitlyn’s face is flushed, but Vi doesn’t question her. There’s no fun in trying to pry out whatever Caitlyn’s hiding; she always gives in too easily.

     

    “Uh-huh,” Vi says.

     

    “Right. Right. I’ll just—sorry to disturb you.”

    Summary

    Set after the events of Episode 09; Season compliant up until this point.
    They reach Caitlyn's mansion and Vi is about to set off; in search for her sister; Powder.
    Yet Caitlyn suggests to stay one night and rest up. Vi certainly looks like she needs this. And so she stays.

    When Caitlyn wakes up, she isn't alone in her bed. Over days she continues to wake up to Vi in her bed and each day the explanation differs.
    Until it doesn't.

    Summary

    She reached over to dip the small towel in a bowl of hot water, squeezing out the excess water before rubbing down Vi’s back again. Welts and harsh bruises were already forming from their game. And Caitlyn didn’t like it one bit, even if they would be gone by morning or even after a few hours.

    “Did you try to eat every single rubber pellet I shot at you?”

    The muscles under her hands flexed and relaxed as Vi tried to look at her. The soft rise and fall of broad shoulders caused Caitlyn to only glare at her.
