Why I think Caitlyn didn’t ask Vi for forgiveness

(Thank 'anons' for your messages. I’ll try to respond to you through this text: )

The importance of Caitlyn’s “I know”

A key moment in Caitlyn’s character narrative is her “I know”—both its content and delivery.

The content: When Caitlyn says, “I know,” it doesn’t just mean “You’re right.” It means, “I’ve taken the time to think about this.” And thinking is what Caitlyn does best. Her “I know” conveys that she has already had this conversation with herself, over and over in her head. She’s thought about it constantly, she’s already told herself these things, and she’s already blamed herself for them.

The delivery: She screams it with violence, and we can see this represented by the boat falling apart. It’s not just that she has thought about it; it’s tormenting her. Her “I know” is incredibly powerful because it’s filled with suffering.

To me, this is as valid as an apology because asking for forgiveness is outward-facing—focused on the other person. "Asking for forgiveness" says, “Whether I’ve forgiven myself or not, whether I feel guilty or not, it’s on you to decide to forgive me.”

But here, Caitlyn’s “I know” is inward-facing. It means, “I’m not asking you to forgive me because I can’t even forgive myself.”

She knows everything you’re saying, and it torments her.

This is followed by:

"I didn’t even have time to think before they hauled her off."

This line is so telling. Everything about Caitlyn is tied to thinking and reflection.

Being a sniper means aiming and shooting. Aiming is the equivalent of thinking, and shooting is the equivalent of speaking. Everything Caitlyn does is deliberate and thought through.

This is why some people dislike her: as I’ve said before, unlike other characters, Caitlyn’s actions can’t be forgiven easily because she doesn’t do anything by accident.

Then we get to:

"We can’t erase our mistakes. None of us."

Caitlyn speak in “we.”

In the prison scene with Jinx:

"No amount of good deeds can undo our crimes."

This scene mirrors the rage she felt when she threw the boat. In this moment, she’s speaking to Jinx, but also to herself.

Caitlyn and Jinx are paralleled so many times throughout the show. Caitlyn quickly realized that, in some ways, she had become like Jinx. And so, in order to forgive Jinx, she would first have to forgive herself.

At this point in the episode, the person Caitlyn hates the most is herself.

But she no longer has the "energy" to hate, neither Jinx nor herself.

Energy comes from fuel. What she perceives as a lack of strength to keep fighting is simply the fact that the fuel that powered her hatred has disappeared. And when you stop feeding a fire, it eventually dies out. She has no energy left; she has no fuel to sustain her hatred.

It's a particular way of saying, I don’t hate you anymore, and I don’t want to hate myself anymore either, because in the end, that hatred corrupts us/everything .

In her own unique way, Jinx also says, I didn’t know your mother was there, even if it wouldn’t have changed anything. And this too is a strange way of taking a step toward the other.

We have two brilliant and intelligent women who express their emotions in unconventional ways. ----------

There’s also a whole analysis that could be done about her concept of justice and rules, "but I don’t have the energy" to dive into that here. Still, it would only lead back to the fact that Caitlyn doesn’t see herself as the right person to free Jinx (and therefore to forgive her) because she believes she herself is beyond forgiveness.

Can we talk about this scene?

Caitlyn twirling an antique flintlock, a veritable museum piece, head all a-swirl with thoughts of her little nemesis? Warning: long caitjinx rant ahead.

This is a world where breech-loading cartridge repeaters are commonplace. By comparison, that thing is ancient. It probably takes half a minute to reload, jams if you look at it wrong, and demands a whole ass powder-horn and cleaning kit. So why does she have even it? More than have it, she's comfortable, even casually familiar with it. She toys with it thoughtlessly, like something she carries every day. It's clearly more than just a hobby piece or an heirloom. It makes no sense. Unless we consider....

The Romance of it

It takes intention and care to fire a gun like that. The barrel needs to be swabbed with every shot, the charge needs to be measured out, the shot rammed home (slower on a rifled muzzle loader with tight tolerances, as this piece surely is), the tiny pan carefully primed. Imagine Caitlyn working through the steps like a ritual, Jinx on her mind. This shot is for you, she might whisper under her breath, and there is none other like it. It's a promise made: a vow that she will look her in the eye and for at least one moment, as the pan catches the spark and flame races through the touch-hole into the barrel, they will know each other.

Once loaded, this kind of gun cannot be unloaded. I think of Jack Sparrow, hanging on to the pistol with the shot that Barbossa loaded for him all those years ago. I think of bullets with names carved into them, and digging two graves before setting out for revenge, two bodies laying side by side for the longest night. An enemy can be as intimate as a lover, and I think this scene gets that.

So yeah. Give caitlyn her sexy flintlock and lets see what she does with it.

no one asked me but

CAITLYN KIRAMMAN:

Grew up in an environment where her achievements were largely overlooked.

Has a knack for sharpshooting and guns in general.

Found someone outside of her family who accepted her for what they (her family) saw as odd or unimportant.

Was very much shaped by the environment she was raised in and has to learn to look past those generalizations in order to grow.

and

JINX:

Drunk Vi , drunk Caitlyn x reader{headcanons}

Author's notes :hiiiii guysss ＼(^-^)／❤️ I did it with the two characters with the most votes annd to be honest i have nothing to say 🙂

⚠️Warning ⚠️: drunk,suggestive vocabulary mention of sexual relations

Vi 🥊

♡ She will flirt even more with you

♡ She will be much more protective than usual and will not hold back if someone approaches you

♡ Once home she will hug you without ever letting go and she will talk constantly telling you how much she loves you:

"you know I love you more than anything"

"mmmh you smell so good baby~"

"You are so sweet, haaa I could never let go of you"

"I loooooove you~"

"say baby you won't leave me huiiiin~"

♤ And on the sex side she won't do anything unless you want her to

♡ When she wakes up in the morning she will be a little worried to see you naked next to her, she was afraid of not having controlled herself and of having forced you to do something:

"baby what happened did I force you to do something??"

"But no my love I was fully consenting don't worry, come here"

You hug her.

♡ In any case she will never hurt you drunk or not she loves you so much, and will not hesitate to show you her love.

Caitlyn 🗡

♤ She will deny the fact that she is drunk:

"noo I'm not drunk mmpph not at all I'm doing very well my love"

♤ She will fall on the floor right after having said that ...

" nnnnoo I'm not drunk "

♤ She will hug you and try to hide the fact that she is too drunk

♤ And try to stay serious but she failb ...

♤ She can't hold her alcohol very well and will end up drunk after the second glass.

♤ She will be way too tired to consider having sex with you, it won't even cross her mind

♤Drunk she will be even more protective of you and her insecurities created by her mother will resurface and she will do everything to show you that she is capable of protecting you and that she deserves you {even if she doesn't think it all the time}

♤ She will give you compliments that she never dared to give you like for example:

"I love your ass"

" you are so beautiful my love ~"

"I love your smell, you smell like vanilla ~~"

" can i touch your boobs honeyyyy~"

♤ And other strange things

♤ Don't hesitate to tell her everything she said to you the next day, she will be dead of shame

♤ Just like Vi she loves you and will not hesitate to show you her love in any case more than usual

I hope you like it ❤️(^-^)/❤️

sees an alternate universe created specifically for Ekko/Jinx

"hm, how can I make this about CaitJinx"

After Jayce and Vi die in the explosion, Caitlyn wants to make sure this kind of thing never happens again. Instead of becoming an enforcer, she gets her mother to use their families influence to actually improve things for the Undercity (helped out by time-displaced Heimerdinger). Through her efforts she meet Powder, the two recognizing each other from the explosion. The two bond over their mutual grief over losing a sibling/sibling-like figure. Followed by usual CaitJinx shipping dynamics (just a little less toxic).

This is a shipping post, but honestly I think the two could also have a really nice platonic bond. I honestly just wish we at least got a glimpse at what happened to Caitlyn in the other timeline.

[thor-is-trans-and-pan-he-told-me]

not sure if i've ever talked about this before but there's this one caitjinx au i have in which caitlyn is a psychiatrist who specializes in serial killers and jinx is a serial killer who's been put in stillwater(which is like a highly secure prison facility)and caitlyn's hired to treat jinx only for her to end up falling her for in the process and thanks to jinx gives in to her deepest and most horrifying desires

so basically in this au their relationship is just "your crazy matches my crazy"

[cupidsncheerios]

caitjinx fic where jinx is a super famous popstar and activist and cait is a nepo baby actress hired to play jinx in her biopic, but jinx thinks cait's performance is HORRIBLE and the girl has clearly never done any chaos in her entire life, so they go on a bunch of definitely not dates where jinx explains how to do anarchism to the world's most uptight piltie and its all "for the role"

by time the movie premieres cait's performance as jinx is INCREDIBLE and she's been arrested like 12 times

Ao3 link if you'd rather read it there:

To add to this, I'd like to imagine the scenario as caitlyn being separated from her enforcer squad deep into Zaun. Jinx has been stalking her (because that's what nemesis do, right?) and watches as caitlyn gets into a gnarly shoot out with some random chembaron gang. Caitlyn fights off most of them but gets snuck up on and gets fatally injured. Jinx goes mental that her nemesis was hurt by someone who wasn't her, so she kills that person off brutally next to a dying caitlyn on the floor. She'd get up and dust herself (and the blood of this random person) off her hands before walking over and standing above a dying caitlyn.

She'd look her over and say, "Jeeeeezzz toots, do I always have to save your ass?" Caitlyn would just look up at her and try to say anything, but would only wheeze and cough in return. Jinxes eyes would widen as she realizes that "oh wow, caitlyn is dying right now, in front of me, on the ground." She'd pat her pockets to look for anything that could stop her from dying (because wanting your nemesis that wants you dead to stay alive is totally normal), and then a light bulb goes off. She grabs a knife off of caitlyns form and slashes her hand, causing it to bleed heavily.

Jinx would smile and bring her dripping hand over to caitlyn and say, "Open up cupcake, doctors orders!" Caitlyn would groan and shake her head no, so jinx would snarl and force caitlyns mouth open with her free hand and drip feed her blood into caitlyns mouth. To caitlyn, it's disgusting at first. The metallic overwhelming iron taste, but then all that shimmer starts to make her feel divine, better than she's ever felt. The wounds on her body would seal up quickly as she sits up with a gasp, pushing jinx away, causing jinx to fall down.

Jinx would roll her eyes and say, "Well, that's no way to thank the girl who saved your life, or did your mommy and daddy not teach you manners? Oh wait, mommies dead!", while rolling on the floor dying of laughter. Caitlyn would look around for her sniper rifle but finds it nowhere. She grabs the still bloody knife and sheaths it. She'd move to apprehend jinx, but Jinx would just use her shimmer speed to move away. She'd wipe a tear from her eye and say mid chuckle, "Alright, I get it, jeezzz. A girl can't even save her nemesis these days. Anyways, see yah later cupcake!" As she zips away.

Caitlyn angrily grumbles to herself before she heads back topside, though with a strange pep in her step. She would make her way back to her mansion and sleep better than she has in months, not that she notices. Over the week, though, her energy and mood would just get worse and worse. She finds herself sleeping horribly now, and she craves something that she can't quite put her tongue on. When she's sorting through the evidence locker room in the enforcer station, she'd eye a vial of shimmer.

Strange, she'd think, since she's never found her eye attracted to it before, and they've been confiscating it for years. But she's desperate for anything to help her sleep. So, she uncorked it and dipped a pinky finger in, bringing it to her lips. She gets a rush, but not the rush that every shimmer addict they arrest describes. She downs the whole thing and barely feels a thing, as a matter of fact!

Horrible sleep again that night, but the next day, they have her arrive to another one of jinxes attacks. They let her be by herself as she investigated since she's been so snappy, and as she walks through the scene, she steps into a puddle of blood. She takes a step back, and she swears the blood has a pink sheen to it. Her mouth starts to salivate uncontrollably, and before she knows it, she crouches down and dips a pinky into it, bringing it to her mouth. The instant smile that hits her face and the weight of everyone just falls off her shoulders.

Before she knows it, she fully kneels down and starts to drink from the puddle like an animal. By the time she pulls back, the puddle is gone, and she feels amazing! Then she realizes she just drank the blood of another human and promptly crawls back and away from it in horror. She'd think to herself, "What the hell!? I'm the head of the kiramman house, the best shot in all the enforcers, and the best detective! But not only did I ruin the scene by tampering with it, I drank from a puddle of blood!"

She would shakily stand up and walk away, telling everyone that this was just another normal scene created by Jinx and that she found no notable evidence. Though they don't mention anything of the manic smile she has while talking about this because they'd rather not be fired. She sleeps like a baby that night, but the next day, she feels horrible again. She gets informed of an ongoing fight with jinx, and she heads there immediately (ignoring the excitement brewing in her chest). Jinx laughs as she notices her and runs down an alleyway by herself, and caitlyn gives chase.

Jinx would laugh as she was chased, saying, "Well, nice to see you too, cupcake! Did you miss me?" Caitlyn would snarl in response and toss her sniper away and grab her knife. She doesn't know why she feels the need to make jinx bleed, but she has to. They'd get into a heated fight, and as caitlyn wrestles Jinx to the floor, she knicks jinxes cheek, causing it to bleed. She freezes while straddling her as jinx pants beneath her.

Before either of them realize it, caitlyn leans down and starts to lick it off of jinxes face. Jinx would giggle and say, "Woah! Down girl! Bad dog, bad dog!"

Caitlyn would pull back, panting and her pupils blown wide as she stammers out, "I... I don't know why I did that..." Jinx would look up at her and realize that caitlyn acted the exact same when she fed her blood to caitlyn.

Jinx would laugh and say, "I ever tell you why I'm so fast and can heal so quick?"

Caitlyn would respond with, "No...?"

Jinx would take the knife out of caitlyns hands and slash her hand again as she says, "I'm made up of shimmer, cupcake. My body produces it on its own now. And I think...", lifting up her palm to caitlyn, "That you're addicted to it. To me. Or maybe you aren't. Don't lick it up if that's the case. Prove me wrong." Caitlyns mouth would dry at the sight before she leans into jinxes palm and laps it up hungrily. Jinx would smile and say, "Aww... whose a good pup? That's right, you are!"

Caitlyns brain would sing to her at jinxes praise before she nodded to agree. Jinx would push against caitlyn and say, "Now get off of me, dummy." Caitlyn would nod and get up off of her, even going as far to help jinx up. Jinx would cup caitlyns cheek and say, "How's my pup feeling? Feeling good? Happy? Ecstatic?"

Caitlyn would nod with a dumb smile and say meekly, "Pup feels good. Feels really good."

Jinx would pat her cheek and pull it away as she says, "Atta girl. You know what? I think this worked out real well for us, cupcake. Real well indeed."

The enforcers would never find caitlyn after that. Of course, they didn't know that caitlyn was living down in zaun with Jinx in her workshop. Cait would help Jinx improve all her weaponry and explosives and tell her how the enforcers operated. In return, jinx would praise her and feed her her own blood. If caitlyn wasn't fed every couple of hours, she'd get feisty and irritable (much to jinxes amusement and dismay, not that she really minds). But when she was fed? She was the happiest woman in all of piltover and zaun. Sure, her girlfriend/nemesis/pseudo owner caused chaos and destruction, and she wasn't allowed to leave the workshop, but she made caitlyn happy and high, and wasn't that all that matters at this point?

[jane-asmo]

You forgive Jinx but not Caitlyn? Here’s why.

If we start from the idea that Jinx and Caitlyn are very similar and that the show increasingly emphasizes this; if we assume they both have traumas and reasons to be angry and violent; if we consider that their traumas are equally significant—because all trauma is equivalent when experiences differ—a trauma is still a trauma.

So why do we forgive Jinx but not Caitlyn? (Or at least, why do people seem to hate Caitlyn more than Jinx for her actions?) Caitlyn hasn’t done anything comparable to Jinx, who has many deaths on her conscience. Is it because she might have sacrificed a child? No, she wouldn’t have missed the shot—you know it, I know it, and so does she. Blaming her for a shot she didn’t take but would have succeeded at isn’t a valid reason.

Jinx isn’t more murderous, nor is she less so than Caitlyn. She’s not stronger...

Here’s a little screenshot of Caitlyn getting the upper hand on Sevika. #SeviCait? 😆 Caitlyn is seriously badass—let’s not forget that.

She’s not stronger... or more loyal, fairer, or smarter…—she’s just more unstable.

So yes, that’s why so many people struggle to forgive Caitlyn’s actions compared to Jinx’s; it feels like Caitlyn does things with full awareness. When she strikes Vi, she’s fully present in the moment, taking her time to think before delivering the blow.

Jinx, on the other hand, hits Vi much harder and more than once. But Caitlyn’s blow hurts more because it comes not just from the heart, but from the head as well.

Do I blame her? No, of course not—she’s my favorite character. And I dare say I love her even more now.

She’ll learn to handle frustration, she’ll keep thinking things through, and she’ll realize she’s being manipulated. She’ll make the right choices, because that’s who she is.
