    Summary

         Ed says, "You gotta quit beating yourself up, mate."
         "I will, I will," says the guy, in a tone that implies he's going to dwell on the events of this night until the heat death of the universe.
         Ed tentatively pats his shoulder. "It's really not that bad."
         It really wasn't. Even if it wasn't exactly fun to walk home after work on a dull Wednesday night only to have some rando come pelting up to him yelling a name that wasn't even his: "Edgar! Edgar, I want to talk to you!"

    Summary

    ”This is Vi,” Powder speaks up before Vi gets a chance. “She’s my sister.”
     
    “You think I’m your sister,” Vi corrects her. The kid rolls her eyes. Caitlyn looks almost like she’s frowning as her eyes dart between them, brow furrowed but her mouth is still very slightly curved upward; definitely a politician.

    “Well,” she says, “that’s certainly a development.”


    When a runaway claiming to be family shows up at Vi’s doorstep, what should have been a simple task bringing the kid back ends up changing her life in ways she never expected.

    Summary

    You're not supposed to find your roommate, best friend, and the only person you can tolerate school events with attractive. That's rule number one.

    If you break rule number one, then under absolutely no circumstances should you admit to it. Vi knows the rule; she wrote it after first meeting Caitlyn Kiramman halfway through their freshman year at Piltover-Zaun University.

    She has a good gig. Caitlyn is funny, sweet, kind, and she does her dishes without being asked. They have similar courses. Their friends all get along.

    Sure, Caitlyn likes to thread her arm through Vi's when they walk, and she always wants to sit next to Vi anytime they go out. But that's just what friends do. So when someone jokes again that Caitlyn and Vi are dating and the taller girl just laughs it off, Vi always laughs too. Because you can find your roommate attractive, but you can't do anything about it.

    That is until election results lead to Vi finding a very drunk Caitlyn just sitting on her motorcycle. Outside. In the dark. Where Caitlyn is very much not joking.

    Summary

    “You can’t just show me into your life and expect me to forget you, not if the sun expires, not if a dust cloud forms a star a thousand times over. I could comb through the galaxy a number of times and science will tell you that, but there is no way I can find what we have, feel just a fraction of it somewhere else—science can’t tell me that. It’s fate. It’s fate that led me here.”

    *
    (Space Opera AU) Caitlyn is the sheriff of Piltover Space Station married to the stowaway-turned-enforcer Vi but when tensions arise the two are separated. Many years later, when a new threat falls on Piltover, Caitlyn comes face to face with a familiar face back from the dead.

    Summary

    Two steps forward, one step back. Asking for anything more, she supposes, would have been asking for a miracle.

    “Can I help you?”

    Caitlyn startles, turning to find herself looking at a miracle in the flesh. She doesn’t know what else to call this woman, really; all sculpted muscle and cargo pants, sunburnt neck and tattoos of something that could possibly be anchors poking out from under her rolled-up sleeves.

    OR:

    A two-week family vacation to Heimerdinger Head Island that turns into so much more. A fishing guide Vi AU feat. redfish, tarpon, and many more fishy friends.
