#Miss Sarah Fortune

[b4ssbr3aker]

Hey so I thought of this idea so I’m just gonna ramble about it (very rough idea as I’m writing while I’m thinking pretty much so expect it to not be completely fleshed out)

I’m imagining of a fic set post s2e9 where Vi finds out Jinx faked her death and she stays up endless nights thinking about what Jinx’s motives were for faking her death, where Jinx could be, whether she should try to go out and find her, whether it’d be worth trying to rekindle things with her if she were to find her, whether she actually feels safe in Piltover with Caitlyn, whether her and Caitlyn’s relationship was just built on a matter of convenience and trauma bonding or if there’s something actually there, the continuous guilt of being a “class traitor” outcasting her from from being able to ever reconnect with community in Zaun, if it’s worth all the prejudice and alienation she continues to feel from the Pilties no matter how much she tries to assimilate herself for the sake of Caitlyn, what love really looks like for her, what love does she desire most, while she can see reasoning in giving up the fight in a more literal sense is it still worth giving up the fight in a more figurative sense?

Vi starts to emotionally invest in her and Caitlyn’s relationship less which Caitlyn takes notice of VERY quickly and causes an array of arguments between the two. Vi then turning towards reconnecting with Ekko (which is initially met with reasonable resistance from Ekko’s end at first), eventually they both confide in each other in regards to Jinx, Vi getting more insight to where Jinx was at mentally after Isha’s death, and both give each other advice and when it comes to whether Vi should go to find Jinx what is said ultimately is;

“In the end it is up to you to figure out what you want and to know there is no real expectation in terms of whether it will work out in your favour. You also have to accept the possibility that she might not want the same thing as you and that you’ll be okay with that. And it’s also a matter of who you are at your core and who you feel the most like yourself with, what do you want to achieve in life for yourself. What interests you? Would you rather want to make an impact on the collective in your lifetime, making an impact on those you deem closest, or do you want to make an impact on yourself?”

This answers some of Vi’s queries but leaves others still open.

Due to Vi and Sevika now being in closer proximity to eachother in Piltover due to Sevika employing the council seat, while reconnecting with Ekko she simultaneously tries to alleviate bad blood and connect with Sevika. Again, initially met with reasonable resistance from Sevika’s end, they eventually come to meet in the middle. Confiding in eachother and Vi gaining more insight to Sevika’s motivations when it comes to Zaun and discovering what led to Jinx becoming who she is now during those 7 years Vi wasn’t there. Sevika in turn, also gets advice on leadership from Vi. Also again, when it came to the big question, her and Sevika also came to the same conclusion.

With her and Caitlyn, however, things continue to not get any better. Fights becoming more and more constant.

To Caitlyn, Vi is changing, and not in a way she’s ready to accept at this point in time and becomes insecure in the state of their relationship. Because without Vi to keep her in check of what life is really like outside the sheltered bubble she still resists to step out of herself, she’ll have no idea who she is, she fears having to be properly violently confronted with the consequences of her actions. She knows who a Kirramman is but who is Caitlyn? The closest she’s ever gotten to being able to find that out is with Vi.

So in response to all of her fears coming to the surface she acts out irrationally, becoming possessive and entitled to Vi in some ways in efforts to try and salvage the relationship which Vi doesn’t take to lightly.

As Vi has more time to think about things, she reflects and gains belief that there could be better opportunities in life out there for her. That it’s okay to act in accordance with what you believe you want and is best for yourself rather than solely for others. That stability isn’t easy to find and shouldn’t have to sacrifice/ignore parts of yourself to settle and there’s a whole lifetime to figure shit out. Vi is only 23 after all, it doesn’t have to be forever.

So after yet another argument with Caitlyn (who is starting to ultimately lose hope), Vi makes the decision that she’s had enough, going to try to find herself. And she’s adamant that as long as she stays in Piltover, she’s not going to be able to do so, nor is going back to Zaun an option.

She needs to escape. And that is what she does that night while Cait is asleep, leaving with no other trace than an apologetic and sentimental letter. Making sure to not give information on where she intends to go for the better.

Using all the memories she can muster of her dad teaching her how to use a boat and navigation when she was a young kid, she goes off before dawn and sets sail towards a place completely foreign to Vi and what she’s grown up with….

Bilgewater.

To make money to get by, she gets a job as a cellarman in a small, cozy bar with complimentary accommodation. A fresh start.

Although.

Who waltzes into her life? None other than…

Miss Sarah Fortune.

BATTLECAST VERSE

Sarah had had the new arm for very nearly a year now, and still struggled with it some days. Katarina felt just as guilty for that now as she did when Sarah was fitted for it. Supplies had been low; they just hadn’t had enough tech to go around. It had been an easy decision, logically and medically: between firing guns and handling hard-light blade tech, Katarina was the clear choice to receive fully myoelectric prostheses when her hands had been irreparably destroyed getting the pair of them out of that ambush point. Sarah’s arm, though... the tech was still perfectly serviceable, of course. It was fine. For someone the resistance largely just wanted to drop into combat and point at an enemy, it was all she really needed. An arm that moved, mostly, when she needed it to—a hand that opened or closed, mostly, when she needed it to. Sarah said she’d understood, then. And logically, she probably had. But it had still been some weeks before she could look Katarina full in the face again. Katarina didn’t even have to think about making the gesture anymore to curl her motorized fingers into the warm space in the sheets Sarah left behind now.

Hair maintenance hadn’t ever been something Sarah struggled with before. The familiar bile of guilt lanced through Katarina's stomach now.

hmm Tales of Runeterra, while not Arcane obviously, has a similar enough style that if Riot manages to go to other regions, this would be how the characters look

[b4ssbr3aker]

Do Vi and Sarah Fortune even have an official ship name? I’ve seen like two floating around (being ViFortune and Vilgwater) but nothing set in stone on Tumblr at least.

Also, fic recs?

Shot / Chaser (Miss Fortune/Katarina, T, 1.5k)

She bounced her leg restlessly, frowning down at the offending bottle. “...need to take it this morning though. Otherwise I’m off-schedule.” Sarah snorted, sliding back down onto the bed to stretch mightily. “Okay, so take it.” “I’m gonna!” Katarina snapped, not moving otherwise. A beat. “Oh my god, you’re being such a baby,” Sarah snorted. “Here, just hand it over, I’ll do it.”

Sarah gives her whiny butch her T-shot.
