    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

    An exploration of trauma in which Vi struggles with the demons of her past.

     

    “Vi?” Caitlyn tapped her knuckle against the bathroom door, conservatively. Of course, she would have heard that. Nothing escaped the resident Sheriffs keen notice. “Vi is everything alright in there?”

    Vi wanted to scream at her. To yell that nothing was alright, that it never would be but she stewed in the silent broth of her bath and grunted. There was the sound of hesitant shuffling, Vi could almost hear Caitlyn deliberating whether she could enter the bathroom or not. It infuriated her. How could this woman still care about her precious feelings after what she’d done and continued to do?

    For a smart woman, Caitlyn was one of the most stupid people that Vi had ever met.
