Summary
Vi didn't lose Vander, Claggor or Mylo when the cannery exploded, at the cost of her little sister and her home in the Undercity.
Now, Seven years later, Caitlyn, the flame Vi can't seem to douse, needs her help navigating the city below.
Her reentry to the Undercity brings more changes than she could have prepared for, a mystery bigger then her unfolds, and at the center of it all is a ghost Vi never stopped mourning.

Summary
This story is dedicated to all those who felt as though the show ended too quickly and we didnt get to see just how affected Vi and Caitlyn would have been after everything they went through
In the aftermath of the battle, Vi can't seem to crawl her way out of her grief after losing almost everyone she ever loved. She becomes self-destructive and can't help but stumble back into her old ways. Unable to find hope in this newer, brighter world, the darkness inside of herself drags her down to a place where she doesn't know if she will ever be able to escape.
After Vi is seriously injured during a pit fight, Caitlyn's life is knocked off its axis. How would she survive if Vi died? Who would she become if Vi was no longer around to help guide her morality?
Are they truly meant to be together? Or will staying together only tear them apart?
This story is of two women working through their individual traumas to overcome deep loss and still find love again.

Summary
Vi was imprisoned for homicide at the age of fifteen. Finally, she has been paroled after ten years. Her family left her behind, and so did the world. She is trying to figure out how to survive the rest of her 'free' life. Then, she moved away from the town, to the city, to get a job as a mechanic at the most prestigious academic institution. One day, Professor Talis noticed his students had turned in geniuses with their homework for his class. He discovered the phantom behind the change and invited her for a chat. And Vi met his sister.
This is a story of starting a new life, leaving the past behind. It is sad, and will hurt from time to time. This story is slightly inspired by 'Good Will Hunting'.
I will only continue writing this story if I get enough encouragement and engagement from the readers. When readers stop, I stop too, no kidding.

Summary
In that dark room, as the bottles emptied and the pain returned, Vi threw punches, kicks, shoves—bloody fists and tears mixing with the oil of her dark makeup. Her muscles ached... and grew...
Meanwhile, without her knowing, a pair of blue eyes watched from the window..
.
.This is my little version of how I imagine Vi’s life during her pit fighter era, and what would have happened if her love story with Caitlyn had unfolded differently at this stage instead of how it did in the series.
WARNING!
Contains explicit scenes of self-harm, substance abuse, mentions of depression, and adult content. -

Summary

Summary

She starts to look for her in Caitlyn... but it's not enough. It's not right.

Summary
Vi seethed on her way to the ring, realizing now that she couldn't stand what she's become. The liquor didn't even make her happy anymore, it was just there to make everything else quiet.
That's all she wanted now, with all the shadows in this place tickling her fucking ear. She didn't want to hear it anymore. She didn't want to see every person she's ever lost in the corners of her eyes.
All Vi wanted to hear was that bell, ringing for blood.
OR
the pitfighter arc. the spiral of heartbreak, hatred, and damage beyond repair. short tales of Vi when she's at her lowest, and if she ever really manages to climb her way back out.
also, vi gets a buzzcut‼️

Summary
Those last few steps were like running inside a dream. That urge to push on, on, on, but the air thickened all around, making it impossible to go forward, to escape, to reach.
Jinx didn't even notice she was screaming, didn't even notice the strain of her throat, didn't notice her eyes burning with seething heat.
The only thing there was, the only thing that existed in this very moment was her sister. There was only Vi.
Vi by the railing. Vi leaning forward. Vi hesitating. Vi letting go.
Or:
Jinx makes sure her sister gets home safe after her fights in the pit. One night she has to stop Vi from taking her final step. -

Summary
HIATUS (as of 2 July 2025)
Caitlyn doesn’t quite know how she got where she is.
Well, obviously she can lay out a timeline. Note down the milestone events. But she’s less clear on how she went from crying at her mother’s grave to commanding Piltover. From finding comfort in Violet’s arms to slamming the butt of her rifle into her solar plexus. The reasoning skitters away from her whenever she tries to pin down the specifics.
She has to understand it, though. Because the crisis has passed, the battle been won— but the fight isn't over. The present threat is gone; the looming ones remain. And apparently it took losing an eye to see it clearly, but now all she sees when she looks down at her hands is a river of blood.
- - -
In the wreckage after the battle, the consequences of her actions slowly begin to reveal themselves to the one-time commander of Piltover.

Summary
She’s burned it all out. The anger, the fighting, the crying; exhausted every loud emotion, all that remains is guilt. And it's slowly eating her alive.
—
The phone buzzes in her back pocket.
"Caitlyn’s tagging along tomorrow,” Jayce writes.
Vi’s brows slightly furrow at the name. Her only memory of the night is a blur of faces and loud shitty music.
“Blue Hair?” she writes back.
—
Vi is too depressed, too occupied with her shit life. Cait, as a friend of Jayce, starts tagging along.
Based on a random fanart of sad-depressed-and-hot Vi and that one 'swim' song. Also, I fixed Vi/Jinx's relationship.
(Not very familiar with AO3 tag conventions/filtering system, I tried my best). -

Summary
Caitlyn’s hands cupped Vi’s face more firmly now, her gaze locking onto those powder-blue eyes, shimmering like stormy skies.
“You’ve been through hell, Vi. You’ve carried so much, and I know it feels impossible to let it go. But please, don’t you see? You deserve this peace. You deserve happiness. And I’m going to be here with you, every step of the way, you hear me? I am going to be here until you believe it too.”
After the battle of Piltover, Vi is consumed by grief over losing everyone, and the memory of Jinx haunts her every day. Drowning in depression, she pushes away all hope, even Caitlyn’s unwavering support.
But healing is a choice only Vi can make. Confronting her darkness, she learns to carry her pain, finding strength to rebuild herself and fight for a brighter future.

Summary
"Jinx wasn’t the only one who heard voices.
She heard Caitlyn’s voice, repeating the same last words before hitting her and abandoning her. She heard Powder’s voice, crying with so much anguish, asking why Vi had abandoned her, only to transform into Jinx’s voice telling her not to call her that, that Powder was dead.
Then, Vander’s voice, telling her that everything was on her shoulders. Shoulders that had led to the brutal death of her brothers and father, and the destruction of her sister’s mind.
She heard her parents’ voices, and sometimes they visited her, standing before her, with the same empty eyes, the stare of the corpses Vi had looked into, her last view of them. And their voices were screams, the screams of those who died at the hands of those wearing the same uniform that their daughter had dared to wear out of foolish love.
She was no longer Vi, because Vi would never have made those choices, nor would she have led to the destruction of everything she fought so hard to protect. Vi represented purity, strength, protection, security.
She was none of that. Not anymore."

Summary
The reality is, is that you will grieve forever.
You will not ‘get over’ the loss of a loved one;
you will simply learn to live with it.
You will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered.
You will be whole again
Or at least you will try to be
But you will never be the same.
