She nods. “Clothes. Armor since our armory can't get it right” She’s forever salty that her armor didn't fit her frame. “I chose to live by the hexgate. Cheaper rent”

Vi simply nodded, even smiling lightly at the notion. ❝ Yeah, well... Home is home to me, even if it's not the best neighborhood and I've got plenty of money to move somewhere better. Got better things to spend my extra money on anyways, like groceries and all that crap. ❞

“You could live in her home and never see her.. She has more bedrooms than anyone needs” Piltovers richest of rich. “The small apartments are far more homely..” Not like Noxus where they kept things bare.

❝ She's the type to toss cash pretty much everyone's way if they mean enough to her. Hell, she's offered for me to live with her at her place or just pay my apartment's rent. I tell her it's fine all the time and that I'll work my way towards things because I never was one for handouts. ❞

“For her people. And you. Family meant more to her than any Hextech tool”

“And started a war to obtain hextech..no matter the cost..”

“Suppose so.. She's how I got my eye. Or I think.. Not sure why they offered me something so… expensive” Janna knows enforcers do not make enough to afford a Hextech prosthetic.

Right before Vi walked out of earshot, she turned around and walked back to Maddie. ❝ Hey... The fact you're still on the force at all is proof enough that she cares about you, got that? ❞

“I doubt that. I tried to kill her… plus I slept with her only to manipulate her.. Then again I was a rebound…” She winced. “Good thing people aren't here right now..” would be embarrassing to air all that out for no reason.

At the uttering of her full first name, Vi rolled her eyes and shrugged. ❝ Cait doesn't /hate/ you, Mads, but fiiiine. Guess I'll handle the boring stuff for now. Don't sprain anything, Girlie.~ ❞ She pushes off the desk and ruffles Maddie's hair a bit before walking over to her own desk.

ＶＩ, 𝕋ℍ𝔼 ℙ𝕚𝕝𝕥𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕣 𝔼𝕟𝕗𝕠𝕣𝕔𝕖𝕣@piltovanpunches.bsky.social · 3h ago

She sips her coffee. “Violet.. Caitlyn will kill us if we don't get the paperwork done. So you better get it done before the deadline” She points an accusatory finger “I don't need to give her more reason for her to hate me”

Vi just leans forward and slightly onto Maddie's desk herself. ❝ Paperwork can wait, it's got a deadline at the end of the week anyways. Besides, I gotta give my hands a little bit of a break. Did plenty of pen pushing last week anyways... ❞

Choking on coffee. Dying for the second time—

“Ambessa knew what she was doing.. Nearly got what she wanted….. Nearly”

“I suppose that is correct..mother made a mess of things while she was in piltover”

ＶＩ, 𝕋ℍ𝔼 ℙ𝕚𝕝𝕥𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕣 𝔼𝕟𝕗𝕠𝕣𝕔𝕖𝕣@piltovanpunches.bsky.social · 3h ago

She rolled her eyes, though she did laugh. “You're the worst...” she mumbled Turning back to her desk. “Get back to your paperwork”

Vi gives her fingerguns with a small wink. ❝ Bang~! How's that? ❞ She's such a dork...

ＶＩ, 𝕋ℍ𝔼 ℙ𝕚𝕝𝕥𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕣 𝔼𝕟𝕗𝕠𝕣𝕔𝕖𝕣@piltovanpunches.bsky.social · 3h ago

“Ugh.. This’ll haunt me” Somehow worse than her history with Caitlyn. “Someone shoot me again…”

❝ You realize I'm never gonna let you forget about the fact you said that I made sense, right~? ❞ Seems she's ignoring the latter half, only relishing in the first bit. ❝ As far as I'm concerned though, I bring results where all others either can't or won't cross certain lines. ❞

“I.. Don't expect you to forgive me. Though I also didn't expect Medarda to leave me here..” she sighed. “Honestly I just assumed everyone was desperate enough to keep me around.. After my recovery” which took a long time.. “But I appreciate it. Letting me keep my life here. Far more peaceful—”

"I appreciate the apology. I may accept it in time. But any sour feelings I have are not conducive to a professional work environment." Caitlyn has the option to get one herself. Enough of her eye was intact that it didnt need such urgent replacing. Cait wasn't ready to handle it yet. She walked—

“I…hate that you made sense” Maddie could actually understand her reasoning. “Though…destruction of property Vi. You need to learn to maybe.. Punch less”

❝ And that's /exactly/ why I punch through things, to not waste time! ❞ Sound logic in her mind, but far from a good idea in reality. ❝ So what if I chased for an hour? It's not like my requests for backup did anything. I got him in the end anyways, didn't I~? ❞

ＶＩ, 𝕋ℍ𝔼 ℙ𝕚𝕝𝕥𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕣 𝔼𝕟𝕗𝕠𝕣𝕔𝕖𝕣@piltovanpunches.bsky.social · 4h ago

“The thirty-minute chase so you can punch them..” She laughed. Nodding toward some paperwork “Report says you chased a guy for nearly an hour”

❝ What's not quick about a knock out blow getting people down in one hit, huh? ❞ There was clearly a teasing tone to her voice, one that conveyed that she was, at least for now, in a much better place mentally and emotionally.

ＶＩ, 𝕋ℍ𝔼 ℙ𝕚𝕝𝕥𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕣 𝔼𝕟𝕗𝕠𝕣𝕔𝕖𝕣@piltovanpunches.bsky.social · 4h ago

She glanced at her hand “I don't need to be like you. You rely on Hextech and your brute strength. I rely on takin’ my opponent out quickly.” Or with her riot suppression gun.. It’s a grenade launcher-

❝ I said you were tough, not invincible or built like me. ❞ Vi patted Maddie on the shoulder as an attempt at comfort. ❝ That's better than we ever got in Zaun at least... Half of the time, people got tossed in dumpsters or just left out on the street. Most dignity bodies got was cremation. ❞

🦊 She's just so small..

“I was a spy not a warrior. I learned to pull strings and plant ideas in vulnerable minds..” She shrugs. “Never had the time to mourn those I lost. Ambessa had me workin’ and training. Though I did at least bury them”

Vi had a few herself, but they weren't really around the face. As far as she's concerned though, scars are badass and can sometimes even be sexy depending on the circumstances. ❝ You'll manage, you're tough. I don't imagine Noxus really gives much time for grieving then, huh? ❞

C O M M A N D E R@kirammankeys.bsky.social · 4h ago

She glanced at the taller before leading on. A hand in her pocket as she walked. Maddie frowned. “I’m sorry.. About everything. Sleepin’ together, tryin’ to shoot you.. Ambessa needed me to manipulate you” And she did..Damn spy. “We’d have matchin’ eye patches if I didn't get this fancy thing”

Caitlyn was still putting things away when Maddie came in again. She paused and nodded. "Two minutes." She doesn't over extend. Simply grabbing her notebook and heading to walk with Maddie. Caitlyn will put the request through when she sees the note. "Ready."

“Been there done that. Cute face does wonders” Despite the scar on her nose.. And a small scar on the corner of her eye. “I’ll be a shoulder to cry on if she needs it. But briefly. I don't handle grief well”

❝ At least the bullets are, at least in Piltover's case, cleaner and easier to heal from. Got too many wounds from those to count though, that's for sure. ❞ Then there's the chainswords of Zaun... Thankfully, those are fairly unweildy. ❝ No doubt she'd run to you if she wasn't locked up in her >>>

“Beats gettin’ shot at. I miss when I only had to worry about arrows and swords” She pulled her hand away. Adjusting her collar “I’m not dealin’ with Cait if you die.”

Vi smiled lightly as she released Maddie's collar and even chuckled. ❝ Can't make any promises, Rookie, but I'll try. ❞ The woman opened up her eyes and took a deep breath, finally regaining her composure. ❝ Means less paperwork for the both of us anyways, and who likes that busy work anyways~? ❞

C O M M A N D E R@kirammankeys.bsky.social · 4h ago

Maddy had intended to just leave after she put her gear in the armory. As well as a note requesting a better breastplate.. However, she knows Caitlyn well enough.. Walking back to the briefing room “Come on”

".. Goodnight." She remains there. A sigh when she believes to be alone. Caitlyn was tidying things up to go take herself home next.

ＶＩ, 𝕋ℍ𝔼 ℙ𝕚𝕝𝕥𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕣 𝔼𝕟𝕗𝕠𝕣𝕔𝕖𝕣@piltovanpunches.bsky.social · 4h ago

She gently brushed her thumb up and down her cheek. “Always the big sister.. Maybe you’ll be able to get her to listen. I’ll be ready to hide the reports if not..” She’s not opposed to outright lying to the higher-ups. After all that's how she got the job..

She closed her eyes and subconsciously leaned into the touch, that tough girl persona starting to strip away as a tear rolls down the cheek with the VI tattoo on it. ❝ That doesn't mean I'm just going to give up on her... If I did, that'd just prove all of her fears and doubts right... ❞ It's >>>

“Unless Noxus brings a ship to our docks. Yes… I’ll be here. G’night Commander”

"I know.. but I still appreciate it. Will you be back tomorrow?"

ＶＩ, 𝕋ℍ𝔼 ℙ𝕚𝕝𝕥𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕣 𝔼𝕟𝕗𝕠𝕣𝕔𝕖𝕣@piltovanpunches.bsky.social · 5h ago

Normally Maddie would act all scared or nervous.. But she's done pretending. She already betrayed Piltover openly… Hand reaching up to cup Vi’s face “Vi.. Our word is less than dirt. But you can cause a tie… convince Cait to vote life. If the new council members from Zaun also vote life…”

❝ I vouch for her myself then! I'll keep her close and do everything I can to see that she can be better! ❞ Great, now she's shouting... Vi even pushed off the wall she was leaned against and walked up to Maddie, gripping the collar of her shirt with a scowl. Leave it to Vi to always fly off >>>

“She’s not human anymore Vi. She's an unstable monster, hurting Piltover and Zaun. A madwoman who was given too much freedom” Maddie steeled herself. “She’ll get solitary if the council doesn't choose to execute her. The half that remains will vote for her end.. Cait might not.. Sevika.”

❝ Maybe if the enforcers we had actually gave a damn about the people instead of /just/ the law, maybe they'd let it happen... ❞ Vi always considered herself to be "the" enforcer, but even she acknowledges that she spreads cruelty and is a hypocrite for saying what she did. ❝ I just don't want >>>

C O M M A N D E R@kirammankeys.bsky.social · 5h ago

“Caitlyn.. That isn't necessary. It was just business” She murmurs, already having her armor off. “I was doin’ my job.”

"Of course. Thank you for today. Would you like me to walk you home?" A privilege for two people.. Maddie or Vi. Caitlyn will walk with them.

ＶＩ, 𝕋ℍ𝔼 ℙ𝕚𝕝𝕥𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕣 𝔼𝕟𝕗𝕠𝕣𝕔𝕖𝕣@piltovanpunches.bsky.social · 5h ago

“You got a grace.. Because you're her sister. She was Silco's weapon…” she frowned. “They wouldn't have to do that if they let an Enforcers in. Let us have a presence... Enforce peace.” Maddie shakes her head. “Vi I know you want to see her as more than a mad woman..-”

❝ How can you "choose" to be better when your hand is constantly being forced? People have to lie, cheat, and steal just to /survive/ down there! ❞ Vi sighed and closed her eyes, a frown tugging at her lips. She knew the reality, but she refused to acknowledge it as such. She just wants to help >>>
