Summary
“Vi?” she blurts. Her heartbeat only thumps harder as the panic sets because how—why was Vi here right now? It was almost like she’d—
She rakes her fingers through her hair, hoping it looks like she wasn’t up to anything but a quiet night on the couch and then before she can think any harder about it, she’s unlocking the deadbolt and then the chain and pulling the door open.
Vi leans cooly against the door jam, one arm resting above her head and the other holding a large, greasy bag of takeout. “Heya, Cupcake,” Vi greets with a wide smile.

Or, hormones are high (i.e. Caitlyn just might let Vi make her Juno).Bookmarked by maratheturtle

Summary
"There's so many more than last year," Caitlyn says absently.
"More what?" Vi asks, still patiently, indulgently still under her touch.
"Freckles," Caitlyn says, and shifts her grip to the nape of Vi's neck, urging her down so Caitlyn can kiss her face, dragging her lips softly, reverently over the new constellations of them blooming across Vi's face. They're faint, light brown, a beautifully chaotic spread stretching across her cheeks, over the slightly crooked bridge of her nose, curling up under her eyes.
-
Caitlyn is determined to show Vi how much she loves every part of her.

Summary
Hard-boiled detective Caitlyn is ready to close up shop, when she finds herself pulled into one last mystery by Vi. The handsome stranger came back to town in search of her long lost younger sister, who happens to be Caitlyn's archnemesis. Meanwhile, starting first grade in Bridge Elementary, Caitlyn's daughter and Vi's adopted kid become best friends, forcing the two single moms closer while the case drives them apart.
A story about a blended family that probably should have stayed in the blender a little longer.

Summary
“Say it again,” Vi all but begs. Her fingers dig into Caitlyn’s wrist and hip where she holds her close like she’ll float away in the ripples the wind makes in the grass, like the tide, like she isn’t Caitlyn’s anchor. Like she isn’t the only thing keeping Caitlyn afloat.
“Qīn’ài de. Oh, qīn’ài de. My dearest.”
Vi kisses her under the sunshine, the first time she’s felt it in years, and Caitlyn kisses back. Wind rustles through the trees, birds are singing, Caitlyn’s mom is dead, and she kisses Vi in the backyard she grew up in like she’s wanted to from the moment those bars between them slid open and Inmate 516 had a name again, a future again.
“Again,” Vi breathes. Their noses brush.
Caitlyn says it into her mouth as if Vi swallowing will keep it in her forever. “Qīn’ài de.”
(Or, it’s not just language. There's knowing and then there's understanding.)

Summary
It has been weeks since the war on Piltover and Caitlyn is at her wits end. Yes, she is wounded, yes she is bedridden, and yes, maybe she did almost die. But she isn't the only one who is hurting, and she is so tired of Vi acting like it.
or
A collection of one shots following Caitlyn and Vi after the war, and Caitlyn teaching Vi that she doesn't always have to be a caregiver, in fact, she could use some of that care herself.

Summary
While she has been teaching Vi the Gmaj7 chord, she has been contemplating how her breath tastes. How shocked and wide her eyes would go if Caitlyn laid just the softest touch on her jaw. What her gasp would sound like if Caitlyn whispered against her earlobe. How those rock hard shoulders would drop defenselessly –
“I can manage,” she says instead.
Vi is a solo music artist who is having a hard time getting traction. Caitlyn’s successful band is on the verge of breaking out of their local music scene. When Caitlyn’s band needs a new guitarist and Vi auditions, they both get more than they bargained for.
OR
Sad indie guitar boy Vi aches to fall in love. Slutty femme top art rock phenom Caitlyn Womanizer Kiramman has promised her band she won't sleep with her new guitarist. But she's not sure how long she can hold out.

“So what the hell do we do?” Vi asks.
“I don’t know,” Caitlyn shakes her head. “But I suppose there are only two options. We either decide which pregnancy we’d like to continue with or-”
“Or, we say ‘fuck it’ and keep them both.”

After years of trying to concieve with no luck, Vi offers to try and carry their first child instead of Caitlyn. They didn't plan on getting pregnant at the same time.Bookmarked by maratheturtle

Summary
After ten years in Stillwater for a crime she didn't commit, Vi breaks herself out and goes home. Her homecoming doesn't go like she thought it would.
Two years later, she's out of control and out on the streets. She's now a champion pitfighter, a raging alcoholic, and completely on her own. Despite her family's best (and desperate) efforts to help, Vi's on a one-way track to ending up either dead or back in prison.
At the same time, Caitlyn arrives in the undercity to collect data and information for her thesis. She starts her research from a local bar called The Last Drop, which puts her right into Vi's path. Vi might have been out of her family's home for years, but she's still not going to let a topsider put them in danger.
Canon divergence (everyone lives!), enemies to lovers (barely, the lovers aspect happens fast), angst, trauma, addiction, and also fluff and humour (because these things can co-exist!)

Summary
Caitlyn watches porn at work. Her thesis advisor has approved a list of search terms:
“Sleepover” for videos of group experimentation.
“While boyfriend watches” for porn filmed by men.
“Strap” for the more hardcore stuff.
“Cunnilingus” for those who bother with proper names, and “pussy eating” for those who don’t.
When new videos pop up, Caitlyn scrubs through them on two-times speed. Massages end happily, cunnilingus gets cut short for penis-in-vagina penetration. Nothing she hasn’t seen before. She sighs and clicks the back arrow.
For the past year of her research, typing in “butch” has been like fishing in a puddle, but Caitlyn tries it anyway.
The page loads. She’s surprised by a video she hasn’t seen at the top of her screen: “PINK-HAIRED ANDRO BUTCH DYKE TAKES 9 INCHES, COMES HARD.”

Summary
"Quiet," Vi whispered in her ear. "You can cry all you want, but I won't fuck until you admit it."
"Admit what?" Her legs trembled as much as her voice. At this point, she was willing to say anything to get just one more inch of contact.
"Admit that every time you burst into my office, it's not just about sex," Vi ordered. "Admit that the reason we can't stop is something different."
"Vi." she whimpered again. “Violet, please.”
A tear escaped from the corner of her eyes, being wiped away with a kiss. Her body was at the peak of physical deprivation, and her mind was fighting against the words being said to her. Fighting against a truth her heart had known for a long time.
It was never just about sex.
"Admit it, Cait, that this... us," Vi said, giving another kiss and wiping away another stubborn tear. "It means so much more."
or Professors AU, Cait and Vi are divorced for the past two years. But what happens when they are the only professors in town during Christmas' Eve?

Summary
“About that,” Vi says. “How’d you end up here? What did a girl like you do to get tossed into this two-star shithole?”
“Really? That’s how you ask? No subtlety in it?”
“Uh, yeah? I saved you from getting shanked in the shower, so fair’s fair. What’s your deal, topside?”
“Caitlyn,” she says. That isn’t right. That wasn’t the answer Vi was after. Names are easily given away but so seldomly remembered in Stillwater, but it echoes in Vi’s head. She almost doesn’t hear the actual answer. “And though I have no doubt a thousand people have given this answer before, I did nothing. I was doing my job, and then I was here. No trial. No sentencing. No crime to speak of.”

Half a decade into Vi's stay in Stillwater, a topsider turns up, raving about being a Councillor's daughter.

Summary
“Houston, do you copy?”
Caitlyn panicked, feeling extraordinarily unprepared having been thrust into her new position without so much as even a handbook to consult. What were the formalities? What was she supposed to respond with? Where was the damn push to talk button…
“Hellooo? I said Houston, do you copy?”
Caitlyn fiddled with her headset, having finally found the green button on the side and hastily letting out a rather breathless reply. “Um, yes. Hello? This is Houston. I copy.”
There was a long pause in which Caitlyn sat twiddling her thumbs, anxiety pushing the frantic pulse of her heartbeat through her eardrums. Was that wrong? Did she already fuck up? She took a steady deep breath, finger hovering over the talk button until the familiar voice of the astronaut came through her headset once more.
“Damn, Houston. I didn’t expect you to sound so sexy.”
OR
Caitlyn has been assigned as the personal capcom to one of the astronauts currently on a year long expedition at the international space station. Cue long months of pining and desperate longing.
