THIS!!!
I know some fic writers get stressed about writing tropes they think are too popular or overdone, and I need you all to know that I just spent 4 hours reading every iteration of the same exact fic plot I could find, and they all brought me an indescribable amount of joy. Listen. Listen. Sometimes you want cakes of many flavours and sometimes you want Nine Carrot Cakes

THIS, THIS, BOTH OF THESE POSTS! YES EXACTLY!!!!!
Screaming into the void of Tumblr again since a few brain dead posts slipped into my feed yesterday.
Caitlyn is not a domestic abuser for hitting Vi. Just like how Vi is not one for hitting Powder.
Given the context of this story and where these characters are at mentally, any professional would have explained that to you. Abusive relationships have clear patterns, but your minds are too focused on your own feelings and biases that you keep trying to demonize her character to justify your own hate. You refuse to see her as anything but a human being because of her background and status. Its amazing how you have a filter tag for who deserves basic empathy and understanding and who does not. Its honestly sad for you.
What is really happening in that scene is Caitlyn is completely overwhelmed by her emotions and is unbalanced. On top of all the trauma Jinx has put her through in season 1, she watched her mother die in front of her, and she is blaming herself. She is angry because she is devastated over her mom, but she hasnt been able to grieve healthily and properly. She is trying to stand tall and take the weight of the crown she has rejected her whole life. The memorial attack, where she can feel and honor her mom, gets violently attacked. And thats her tipping point.
She is desperately trying to hold on to the one person she cares for and trusts as support and thats Vi aka her mom's murderer's sister. It sounds absurd when you say it out loud. The moment she is stopped by Vi again, she feels a visceral sense of betrayal. The reasons do not matter for someone in that mental state at the time. It is simply wrong to expect humans to react rationally in these emotionally dense situations. She does not attack Vi or try to take control of her; she simply wants to leave. Then she freaking gets stopped and is compared to her mom's murderer. It doesnt matter that Vi has good intentions, that is the biggest insult and kick you can give her at that moment. She simply doesn't want to stay with her, to be held by her. And that's valid. She completely loses herself in her anger and responds physically by hitting her. It does not matter that it is the wrong thing to do because realistically, this is a very possible and expected human response. I seriously feel like I am trying to explain Psychology 101 to some people. Seperate your own feelings from the show for once and see the narrative.
And stop twisting the truth of this character. Stop mislabeling her and accusing her with definitions that do not fit her story to satisfy your own negative emotions.
If you were in Caitlyn's position, given these childish reactions I bet a lot of you would not have the control, consciousness, and moral backbone that she has in this story. She is literally one of the strongest characters in the show. Honestly, Jinx has always been my favorite character, but you all are turning me into a die hard Caitlyn defender around here.

I just had a horrible thought: Caitlyn and Vi being separated in Act 1 probably saved both their lives and the entire world.
If Vi stayed with Caitlyn, she would’ve kept trying to be Cait’s voice of reason, calling out Ambessa’s BS every chance she got (like she does immediately in Cait’s office). Ambessa would’ve seen her as an obstacle to manipulating Caitlyn. And knowing Ambessa? She’d set up some kind of “accident” to take Vi out, probably framing Jinx for it. Caitlyn, full of grief and rage, would’ve been even more hellbent on revenge against Jinx, falling further into Ambessa’s control.
When Caitlyn brings Vi to Ambessa at the commune, Ambessa outright says, “Caitlyn cannot be distracted,” while reaching for a knife to kill Vi. This was never going to end well.
Without Vi, Caitlyn would’ve had no one to pull her out of this spiral. No feelings of guilt over leaving Vi behind to make her question her choices. No reunion that tips her doubt over the edge into full-on betrayal of Ambessa. Instead, Caitlyn would’ve been left alone, drowning in her grief, with only Ambessa guiding her actions and Maddie pretending to comfort her.
Even if Caitlyn eventually turned against Ambessa (which, let’s be real, she probably would’ve—Jayce shooting Viktor and Ambessa making deals with him would’ve been her breaking point), she would’ve been completely alone at the commune. No Vi. No backup. Just Ambessa, her army, and maybe even Riktus, who we already know almost killed Caitlyn in the past. She’d have no way out. The second Caitlyn showed any resistance to Ambessa, she would’ve been killed—or worse, turned into yet another martyr for Piltover’s war against Zaun.
And if Cait somehow survived all of this and tried to turn to Maddie? That sleeper agent would’ve been activated immediately, and Caitlyn would’ve been even more screwed.
Now let’s look at Jinx. Without Vi, Jinx would’ve either:
Gone completely off the rails.
Packed up with Isha and bailed.
Tried to save Vander alone and died in the process.
And even if Jinx, Isha, and Vander made it to the commune? No Caitlyn there to fight with them. No extra hextech gemstones for Isha to load into Jinx’s gun. No injured Vi to force them to work together. They all would’ve died. Jinx may be smart, but one gun versus Warwick-Vander, Ambessa, Riktus, and Caitlyn (still manipulated by Ambessa) isn’t going to end well.
No Vi = No Jinx coming to save Caitlyn in the final fight. No Jinx showing up with Ekko to blow up Viktor’s face with literal timebombs. No united Zaun rallying to help.
No Caitlyn = No one to help Mel take down Ambessa.
No Jinx = No united Zaun in the final fight.
No Ekko = No world-saving explosions.
ALL I’M SAYING IS: Caitlyn and Vi needed to be apart. It wasn’t just about saving themselves or (ironically) their relationship—it was about saving THE WHOLE DAMN WORLD.

I didn't need to cry today thank you! 😭💕
Great analysis thread here talking about how Vander/Warwick had to have deliberately let Jinx go in this scene in order for her to get away

That the flashback is indeed his memory being triggered, parallelling episode 4 where he lets her go after he recognizes her and her bomb
Echoed in Wasteland playing during the scene which ends with the line "Please let me go."
I also wanted to add the point that Vander letting Jinx go here would also parallel Jinx having just let Vi go (both literally/physically, and emotionally/symbolically)

YO!!!!! Is Paint the Town Blue referring to CAITLYN?!?
She's the Commander now, she's in power, her BLUE banners are being put up all over Zaun, the BLUE uniformed enforcers she is ordering are flooding Zaun and policing the border, obviously her hair, eyes, and overall colour is blue (always been a pretty interesting parallel between her and Jinx for me). The song is not only playing over scenes showing support for Jinx growing, but also of what increasing measures Caitlyn is going to in order to hunt her down.
Thinking of this, this song now feels like Paint the Town Blue is referring to the war in general going on fueled by support for Jinx vs Caitlyn's hunt for revenge. The war between them is Painting the Town Blue!!!!!
(I don't even care if I'm late to this realization, this just hit me and its SO COOL!!!!)

I know absolutely NOTHING about Katarina other than she is apparently straight?! BUT, you cannot tell me this woman, the visual love child of Caitlyn and Vi....is straight?! You're telling me that a woman with dark pink hair swept to the side, a fighter, who is wearing dark blue and gold clothing, with elegance to her movements.........is NOT supposed to make us think of the GAYEST couple in this franchise?!? I'm sorry this is literally CaitVi as a person, WHAT DO YOU MEAN SHES STRAIGHT?!?

“Caitlyn’s a monster, sure she was hunting chem barons using precision strikes to minimize damage but she unleashed a dangerous substance into Zaun that could hurt people for her own goal!”
“OUR HERO!”

This had me laughing then suddenly crying very quickly! God damn you........now gimme the fic!!!!
love the idea of Vi getting transported to the happy universe and everythings great and theyre all hugging. They're happy to see her again, she's happy to see a version of them that lived. until silco comes over, embracing her with open arms and she fucking socks him in the face saying, "that's for what you did to powder asshole". They all have to drag her off of him, she won't stop yelling obscenities at him. he's so confused.
she has 7 years of pent up anger against this man who almost single handedly ruined her life. He has 7 years of grief for his kinda daughter he lost

Is there a specific A03 tag I can use to search for a happy universe AU where Vi is alive? Bonus if she got the blue Arcane scars from the explosion!

As a 24 year old woman I can tell you that Caitlyn dealt better with her reaction to grief and trauma in a MUCH better way at 23 than I EVER would have done!!! 🤣
My mum dies and my country goes to war because of the attack that killed her? MATE!!!! I'd fire a nuke at myself and take both sides of the war with it!!!!!!!

I have officially read 2 fics now where there is a difference between being married in Zaun vs Piltover and hilarious and soft hijinks ensue. Safe to say I NEED MORE OF THESE!!! They are so god damn funny and wholesomely sweet at the same time 🤣
I've linked 1 down below if you wanna read but can't find the other for the life of me (kid you not I've been looking for a god damn HOUR!) But if anyone knows it and has the link PLZ do share.
1) It's different in Zaun
https://archiveofourown.org/works/61980571/chapters/158494510
2) It has Cait and Vi living in a Zaun flat (I think) and Cait proposes to Vi after trying to make a nice dinner, Vi doesn't process this and says shes gonna go get a take away - AKA run 2 steps outside and panic talk to Jinx (who....is around?!) ITS NOT ANGST, is fluffy and fucking FUNNY!!!!
