#Cassandra loving Caitlyn doesn’t mean that she isn’t another corrupt councilor

[julietwiskey1]

I think Vi and Cassandra would not get along. I think Cassandra out of all of the people topside aside from Markus was most responsible if indirectly for her suffering. She could have been a councilor for long enough to have set the conditions for the bridge massacre.

But most of all I think she was a big reason why Grayson was so determined to bring someone in for Jayce apartment explosion and theft. If someone had dynamite in their apartment and it blew up in a robbery you blame the person who had the dynamite not the robbers. But I think Cassandra had a lot of incentive to move blame away from Jayce. After all she was the one paying for his research. She paid for the production of the explosives. So blame could quickly jump from Jayce to her. So it would be better for her if she could get the sheriff to pin the blame on anyone else.

I think if this ever came up in conversation it would solidify in VI’s mind how the council works and the kind of corruption that runs rampant in Piltover. They matter the most and the people of the undercity are expendable to their ends.

It would also force Caitlyn to consider the full extent of corruption. It isn’t just confined to the enforcers or even start there. But rather it starts all the way at the top and works it way down. And her mother is a very big player in directing that corruption and benefiting from it.
