    Summary

    Vi is a mercenary imprisoned on a backwater planet under mysterious circumstances. Caitlyn is a Council Spectre given the task of preventing an elusive group from staging a second Skyllian Blitz. Each needs the other for reasons of survival and duty, and absolutely nothing else... right?

    EDIT: I've made the decision to remove the intended chapter count. This is my first multi-chapter fic and I was really out of my depth putting one in the first place. Good news is, that number is trending upwards rather than down, I've already got at least ten chapters planned, but from there, we'll see where things go.

    Summary

    Caitlyn glances out Vi’s window as they emerge from another cloud. Hopes to glimpse the sun setting behind the coastal mountains, their silhouetted peaks framed by brilliant orange and yellow and gold, their shadows crawling east across the clouds. Instead she sees a barricade of emerald green and midnight blue and charcoal gray unfurling as it hurtles toward them. A vertical ocean of swirling waves stretching in every direction, illuminated by bursts of lighting.

    “Vi?”

    Vi looks over. Snaps her head back to look again. “A supercell?” The color drains from her face. “Where did–” Caitlyn feels a shudder run through the floor. Through her boots. Up her seat. Up her spine. Vi clutches the yoke, fights the tremors. The hull shudders again. And again. Starts to shake, the rattles building and building and building until Caitlyn is bouncing off of her seat, fingernails clawing into the cushion.

    ...

    Survival Adventure AU. Caitlyn and Vi are separated when their plane crashes in the snowy mountains. They must learn to survive the frigid winter as they find their way back to each other in more ways than one.

    Summary

    Vi is the head barista and part-time manager of The Last Drop, a coffee shop and café in Piltover. Caitlyn is a coffee-loving PhD student at the nearby university who spends every weekday working from her favorite table at The Last Drop. Despite an obvious attraction, the two women are immediately at odds with each other the moment their paths cross. Over time, they'll navigate past their differences and form a unique arrangement.

    This is an enemies to friends with benefits to lovers arc set in a modern coffee shop/café AU. I am writing it specifically at the request of my wife, who has a thing for barista-centric fanfics and loves Caitlyn/Vi. Chapter titles are quotes from Arcane.

    B, I love you so much. This is first-and-foremost for you.

    Summary

    Caitlyn has always been data driven, always picking up on the small details to try and refine the bigger picture. It’s probably why she found herself moving halfway across the world to pursue a PhD. She had been expecting to put her scientific hypothesis to the test, what she wasn’t expecting was to analyse other aspects of her life quite so thoroughly. But when she gets asked to become a teaching assistant and starts to get to know the departments resident superstar she finds herself questioning more than just her thesis.

    Summary

    "It is time to fulfill your duties as princess.”

    “Yes, Mother. You know I take my duties very seriously," Caitlyn said, hesitantly.

    “I am so pleased to hear you say that. As you know, tensions between Piltover and Zaun have been…high…and, while there is a peace treaty between us, nothing is assured.”

    Oh no. Oh no, no, no.

    “So, due to the potential for instability, and your commendable commitment to your kingdom, your father and I have decided that the fact that you are both unmarried and eligible is quite fortuitous.”

    Caitlyn’s eyes widened a fraction farther, and she could not contain her whispered, “No” as her stomach dropped to her toes and her chest constricted like she had just been thrown from her horse.

    “Three days hence, you will marry the eldest child of the Hound of the Underground, and your union will fully secure the peace between our two nations.”

    OR

    The arranged marriage AU: Caitlyn is princess of Piltover, Vi is nobility in Zaun, and they marry to secure the peace.
