Caitvi edition
>>4341065That's hot
Wanted to share this here.My mom made me and my girlfriend these CaitVi pillows. She didn't like Arcane but somehow picked up on Caitlyn and Vi's romance quickly.
>>4341109Very cute, which one is yours, or are you going to swap around?
>>4341109Your mom sounds cute.
>>4341109It's incredible that anyone would look at this without either cracking up or holding back nausea,
>>4341144Check out this badass.
>>4341062One job.Previous thread:>>4320799>>4320799>>4320799>>4320799
I would also add league to the thread title so if pure leaguefags search the catalog for a league thread, they’ll find what they want. People are less likely to think so search “lol”
>>4341112They're living room pillows but if you're asking which of us is Vi or Cait- I'm the Vi, she's the Cait.
>>4341171*think to
>>4341109That's adorable anon. My mom watched too but wasn't as quick on the uptake. Her fav was Vi while mine is Cait so it was fun once the penny dropped.
>>4341172Hopefully there's no deranged sister in the mix this time
>>4341173Was Jinx designed by Butch Hartman?
>>4341172Hopefully there's a deranged sister in the mix this time too
>>4341144What does this even mean? They're super cute
>>4341181Someone's just being an edgy moron. Ignore.
>>4341144You’re jealous anonette found someone, aren’t you?
Do you think Vi and Caitlyn will keep patrolling the streets? Feels like Caitlyn at least should be past that.
>>4341176My mom's fav was Jayce cause she thought he was hot. kinda funny to see a 50+ year-old woman crushing on a young, fictional man.>>4341178>>4341180Kek, we have both a little Jinx and Jayce in our lives.
>>4341065Imagine all the bullet holes in the ceiling. Just hope that they always get a room on the top floor whenever they stay at a hotel.
>>4341189Assuming Cait is still gunning for Sheriff to fulfil her 'canon' role then I could see her doing calmer patrol duty while recovering from the wounds Ambessa inflicted on her. And with Vi having no real goal any longer with Jinx gone she'd likely need something else to occupy her mind with. Helping Cait reform the Enforcers seems like something she'd do, like Cait says, she has a good heart and wants to help people.
>>4341199>>4341189I think they will take time for themselves first and foremost. No more duties for a while.
I love Sevika. There's a lot of good art of her solo (and some good stuff with Mel), but anything with a pairing is often some side character with even less screentime than her as opposed to Vi/Caitlyn/Jinx because people are afraid of the age gap or don't want to multiship, despite her having more chemistry and #potential with those three. Here are some fics I've found to soften the blow.Sev/Jinx - https://archiveofourown.org/works/61175449Sev/Caitlyn (third chapter is a threesome between Sev, Caitlyn, and a brothel girl) - https://archiveofourown.org/works/39144582/chapters/97931997Sev/Vi - https://archiveofourown.org/works/43725645Sev/Vi - https://archiveofourown.org/works/60306271Sev/Caitlyn - https://archiveofourown.org/works/36800086Sev/Jinx - https://archiveofourown.org/works/60653521I should really go and sift through the mountains of Caitvi fics, but I'm just fixated on Sevika is all ...
>>4341189Caitlyn should become a detective first, then sheriff
Ignoring all the text except for “obedient wife”
>>4341215Biggest down grade in history, fucking Ellen degeneres haircut
>>4341215Disgusting.
>>4341215This makes me angry
>>4341208Gg Sevikafag. She's a fantastic character and deserved to have her own female love interest.
>>4341208Sev/Jinx is cute, it's a crime that they didn't even speak again after episode 4. plus there was something flirty about her amused look when Caitlyn bit her.
I kinda wish that jail scene was a bit more… explicit. Like, not outright pornography, but just a bit more than side-boob.
>>4341247Don't worry there's an extended cut we will never see
>>4341243Back around S1, there were a few people who drew her and Ran having a thing together. Ran being one of Silco's goons who shows up throughout S1 and has zero speaking lines and was only named from some fortiche person on twitter - cool design, but not much to go off there, you know? She shows up again at the very end in s2 right next to Sevika during the charge, which is fun. Beyond that I've mostly seen people drawing Sevika with their own OC or some random girl. There's been some between her and Margot, one of the chembarons, which is alright. Mel and Sevika somehow went from an impossible bunch of nonsense to 'well, it could THEORETICALLY happen' with Sevika's new council role which is fun.>>4341245It's so screwed up!! I'm warmer on S2 than many but I really would've killed to have just one more scene between them. No offense to the Ekko heads but I almost wish Sevika had been the one to drag her out of her suicidal dreariness - or at the very least, make ANY appearance, make ANY indication that she's aware of what happened.She's known Jinx for such a long time - longer than Jinx knew her actual parents. Saw her grow up, and was made a forced-babysitter by Silco. Couldn't stand her. And yet when push came to shove, she refused to give her up - that team-up between the two as they bond in Silco's office, as Jinx makes a new arm for her.. Sevika ending up as the third in their little makeshift family - it's soooo good. (Even if there's some stuff that would've been nice to have been made outright - I assume that Sevika either overheard Jinx admitting to killing Silco or put it together herself and decided it didn't matter, Jinx was the new 'cause' and she warned Silco of exactly this happening, but.. it's rich territory that now painfully exists only in the periphery, the space in-between what we were shown in our memory.. like a whole lot else..) To have her basically blip out of exstence after the prison jailbreak was such a bummer
>>4341247No one is going to say they wouldn't take more, but they hid none of their anticipation and excitement for each other from us, and gave the passion center stage for way longer than I expected. Just thinking about it again still blows me away.
>>4341265Apologies, I ended up having more to prattle on with ...Jinx and Sevika is juicy. I think Vi and Sevika is criminally underexplored - maybe people just aren't on my wavelength, but you don't get two bad bitches fighting each other as dirty as they did - twice! - without having a little spark there. They've got more in common with one another than they'd probably care to admit. It would've been cool to see these two either get a third fight, or even a conversation - imagining Sevika coming across pit fighter Vi. Dictator Caitlyn hunting down the rebel-on-a-run Sevika.. I need it, I need it bad. And now, post-show, we've got them in this weird place as allies!? Councilor Sevika, likely with Kiramman backing. Nuts. Just waiting and hoping people get on my level of cope and wonder.
>>4341261I love how tender this is.
>>4341266God yes this scene was so fucking perfectIt's more than I could ever imagine!
Why do people think Vi is stupid? She's pretty street smarts and perceptive.
>>4341282Well she never went to school and spent her teenage years in prison. She’s probably intelligent, just wouldn’t know a lot of stuff
>>4341283It didn't look like anyone in the undercity had traditional schooling either way.
>>4341215I don't mind the hair on her head, but I cannot abide the fucking armpit hair.Mon dieu, i'll never understand why so many artist keep giving her ,and butch or any other slightly masculine women general, excessive body hair.
>>4341291
>>4341291>>4341292Are these their project k cards? Hopefully these aren't too rare where buying a pair is going to cost a ridiculous amount.
>>4341289Honestly the butch art of Vi is ridiculous, a lot of art are making her the manliest unkempt butch when she wears makeup and has a V shake upper body
>>4341312People going overboard on interpreting caitvi as butch/femme in general is weird.
>>4341347But they *are* a butch/femme couple. What people get wrong is that they keep interpreting them as being on the extreme ends of the spectrum and ignoring/removing all the nuances.The butch/femme spectrum is less of a linear line and is more like the morality alignment system in DnD.
>>4341349That's what I was talking about by saying "overboard"
>>4341347They absolutely are. Especially Vi is the butchest of butches
>>4341347Most fanartists just take a few key features from the character and slap it on their personal caricatures. More often than not I look at pictures in these threads and feel nothing for them because it looks like they may as well have drawn a different character. Good art that captures the character even if the artist uses their own style is so special and too rare.
>>4341351Whoops, my bad.>>4341352Vi is the bottomest of bottoms.
>>4341347>>4341347Ugh yeah. Vi WAS a smart ass violence loving butch in a corset and tutu, Caitlyn WAS originally a frilly femme with a retarded looking hat who turned into a cold calculating dom femme. I blame the French and Arcane. French for making Vi a muscle-mommy short stack and Caitlyn in a gangly, bow legged bean pole. Arcane for ruining their characters. This Vi is so damn sentimental and motherly that I expect her to be barefoot and pregnant while wearing nothing but an apron while making Caitlyn's meals. Caitlyn comes off as a toxic masculine dumb ass stubborn butch. I mean props I guess to her for putting Vi in her rightful place; on her knees and sucking her clit by my god have the roles been reversed.
>>4341385Doesn’t help that Vi will be the one who knows how to cook, clean, do handiwork due to their different upbringings. They’ll naturally fall into this kind of relationship despite outward appearances.
Vi x Felicia
>>4341397Oh god...it's Cinderella.
>>4341292I still can't get over how stupidly cool and badass this particular Caitlyn look is.
>>4341397She's a slum kid who spent her entire adult life in jail. You really think she's going to turn into the Angel of the House? They'll just hire someone to do their housework.
>>4341397Has Vi actually demonstrated any of those skills in Arcane? I honestly can't remember. If Vi's eating she's either ordering from a food stand or kneeling in front of Caitlyn, not making do with eggs, bread and last night's leftovers.Even her alleged technical skill keeps getting retconned with how she got her gauntlets, since the show emphasizes her raw combat prowess at a boxer being amplified by the gauntlets she gets from Jayce, vs the original having self-taught mechanical intuition and modifying the gauntlets in a pinch in an emergency situation.They probably just wanted to give Jinx more to do and differentiate them more by giving more of the tinkerer stuff to Jinx, like Mario and Luigi but with lesbians.
What do we think about Vi and Cait having children? Will it happen? Will they choose to remain childless?
>>4341525I could see them adopt one somewhere down the line. Probably lots of orphans in this city in need of parents, even more so after the war.
>>4341525Of course they’ll have kids, both because they want to and Cait is extremely dutiful and would want to carry on the Kirraman line
>>4341528Let Ekko raise those street rats, Vi and Cait’s genes are too good to waste
>>4341530Vi is an orphan. Of course she will adopt.And Vi isn't even fertile anymore after all the abuse done to her body.
>>4341532Just because you're an orphan doesn't mean you're not allowed to have your own kids. That's like forcing orphans to be evolutionary dead ends. Also this is literally a word of magic, Vi can drink a fertility potion
>>4341530>>4341534Vi and Cait aren't Musk-loving incels, they aren't going to think about children that way. But if you do want to bring eugenics into it, there is that possible genetic predisposition to psychosis on Vi's side.
>>4341215Tbh i don't think she is bad looking, she's still very feminine
>>4341548Also the possibility of an oedipus complex
>>4341548Cait’’s a part of an aristocratic bloodline, she is gonna think of it that way
>>4341534I didn't even say that. I think she prefers to adopt but seeing as Caitlyn will probably want to have blood heirs, they will also have some bio children where Caitlyn carries.
>>4341511Idk, my butch lesbian ass is an engineering legacy, as in, its what my mostly male family just always had a job in. If it had been mining Im pretty sure i would most likely have been a coal miner. I DON'T like being dirty, I WILL GET DIRTY, but its not my neutral. I do shave my legs underarms and trim my bagina. I Am a foodie. I imagen ANYONE who works a 9 to 5 gets board of eating the same thing everyday and tends to just lean into becoming someone who likes different favors and just sort of ends up being a pretty good cook. But yeah, Euro/Trailer grunge trash with joe dirt hair has NEVER been appealing to me. I like clean sleek and sharp. Nothing about working in a dirty place with big machines would prompt me to have any kind of long hair (see rekt). Women who work hevey jobs know the dangers of being unkept, Its dangerous. And i find women with a strong sense of self to be attractive. I know its shallow, but if I had to grow up, wtf makes anyone think im going to humor someone who hasn't mastered the basics of being forced to adult. I think what the art team did was the straight people version of what they see. And what they assume, What butches dont work? Femmes dont have to do fucked up shit all the time? We are all molded by our surroundings, and people who dont have to deal bleed into people actually living IT. Theres this one half latin producer out there that gets a kick out of unkept butches, all that goes threw my mind is WTF? bitch get your self a man, butches are NOT MEN, men smelling bad is NOT treated the same of what will happen to you if you smell bad as a girl. Its gross, an crack pot billionaire just managed to make next generation retarded in not knowing what it takes to stay alive as just a plain ass butch. Now we got dirty, smelly long fucked up hair Non binary and Qeers telling butches what and who they are, when those dumb bitches cant even make rent.
>>4341560Is this some kind of lame copy paste?
>>4341565From where? I cant believe that it is apparent that more than ONE person has already told you this, yet here you are, saying its not possible for you to be wrong about something. You do you boo. You stick to trailer trash. Everyone's allowed to like what they like.
>>4341534>genetic dead end How are you a homophobe and on /u/
>>4341551People are freaking out because of the art style mainly. Vi is beautiful enough in such a way for any length of hair; there’s some buzz cut shots 0f her model out there and she looks great.
>>4341560>I do shave my legs underarms and trim my bagina. I Am a foodie.I’m having a hard time parsing your post, but this is making me laugh.>>4341565It would be the first butch copypasta ever made. So based.
>>4341570Lesbians have plenty of bio kids these days, anon
>>4341577Reporting
>>4341575Still has nothing on straight numbers, phobe.
>>4341583idk, as the butch dyke well off lesbian no child baring aunt, i tend to be the one to take care of the straight breeder that wont pay or raise their OWN DAMN KID, because they didn't want kids but didn't realize it until they actually had some. Because reality has a way of teaching folks like you lessons that you cant practice.
>dirty place where Jinx wasYep, I’m thinking sexytime.>>4341577They got rid of poster counters not too long ago so we’ll never know.
>>4341590Ugh! that pic, ngl, if i could, i Would.
>>4341590The thought of Vi and Cait only getting turned on in dirty places is super funny
>>4341316
>>4341597I mean like, if you really like each other, it tends to happen where ever you can. Sex is worse than drugs.
Do Cait and Vi continue living with Papa Kiramman at the mansion or do they get their own place?
>>4341607When you have that kind of power you cant move. You HAVE to stay in the mansion. Things are built into that house to keep you and your family safe.
>>4341607They kick Tobias out kek
>Headcanon: because of the feeling of calm and great fatigue Cait constantly falls asleep on Vi in all sorts of uncomfortable positions, and Vi humbly waits for Cait to wake up
>>4341607>Tobias wanting to kill himself after hearing Cait screaming her lungs out for Vi to fuck her harder>Vi leaves the room naked for a glass of water>"Hey pal! listen Cait just passed out i believe she will come back after 30 min, could you be a good guy and go for a walk? i promise you i will be done with her in about 6 hours ty :) "
>>4341607Because the Kirammans are a matriarchal dynasty the ownership went straight to Cait so now it’s her mansion. She’ll allow her father to stay in one wing of the house.
>>4341632There were a few scenes in the show where I could've seen Cait taking a short nap on Vi. Like after the memorial attack when they're both sitting next to each other on the bench
>>4341632This is one of my favorite fanarts of caitvi. They're so soft
1/3
>>43416672/3
>>43416693/3
>>4341635>implying Cait didn't make Jayce soundproof her room the moment she turned fifteen.
>>4341673>implying Caitlyn cared if her parents heard her moaning sounds
>>4341667>>4341669>>4341670>still no fics post S2 with this kinda stuffI have no mouth and I must scream
>>4341667>>4341669>>4341670Aw that's fuckihg cute. But please don't name the child Lavender. Felicia, Cassandra, whatever is a better name
>>4341679LaVander
>>4341679How about jinx?
>>4341695Why would they name Jinx and not powder bro?
>>4341674No way. Caitlyn's an absolute freak, but she's not letting anyone other than her partners even guess at it. That's the upper-class British way.
>>4341696Because itd be funny for vi to call her daughter jinx
>>4341702>Caitlyn toppingCait becomes a fuckdoll for Vi because she thinks she deserves to be punished by Zaun for her crimes.
>Vi has to eat Cait out on command>Vi isn’t even allowed to touch herselfOh the misery.
>>4341705I agree. I can't see Caitlyn doing anything but being an absolute bottom with Vi
>>4341590It's a shame that Jinx's hideout is gone, they'd probably love her blanket fort
>>4341737>Pretending Vi doesn't like it
>>4341705This, I know people like the Ice Queen Cait vibe but Vi definitely has that Piltie begging to be fucked once they're alone.
This article didn't age wellhttps://screenrant.com/arcane-season-2-caitlyn-vi-romance-relationship-problem/
Does Vi want to be touched during sex at all?
>>4341821wtf do you mean? Vi melts when cait is touching her in prison, she just likes to be on top
>>4341821With Cait? Of course, she probably just has an issue with unwanted or unexpected touch. Even before their first kiss when Cait calms her down after the shimmer sip Vi is immediately soothed by Cait's hand stroking her cheek. In fact it distracts her so much she forgets why they're there for a second.
>>4341825Wow I never noticed that. I only ever focused on how Caitlyn gets so flustered in that scene.
>>4341830Yeah same as when they're on Cait's bed and Vi is opening up to her about Powder (since ironically she's the talker of the two). Cait reaches out to stroke her cheek again which draws up Vi's attention and she looks affectionately back at Cait before taking her hand in her own.
Has anyone ever wondered why Cait falls for Vi so hard and fast even though she knows that Vi is Jinx's sister?
>>4341841Cait was sheltered her whole life and Vi is a genuine good person from Zaun plus she's hot so that kinda messed up with Caitlyn's brain
>>4341841Because of Cait being sheltered, feeling like a misfit her whole life and hating being treated as her family name and Vi being the first person who treats her with the kiddy gloves off.
>>4341843But is being hot and being kind strong enough of a glue to hold them together for life? I mean I can see from Vi that she absolutely loves Caitlyn because she's the first person who showed her true warmth and care and because of her kindness, but Caitlyn's love for Vi might die off after the initial attraction dies off
>>4341841She's already saved Vi's life once before she knows that, and they go through even more before Jinx kills her mom. She wants to arrest Jinx in Season 1, but its not the extreme personal hatred she develops in season 2.
>>4341849Cait loved Vi enough for her freaky sister kidnapping her and killing her mother to not be an instant deal breaker so I'd say she's down bad bad.More seriously though>I mean I can see from Vi that she absolutely loves Caitlyn because she's the first person who showed her true warmth and care and because of her kindnessA similar thing applies to Cait too. She's never had anyone like Vi who sees and loves her for herself either. People see her as her name.
>>4341849There is no one else that would put so much trust and completely give herself to Caitlyn like Vi. Cait allows her to reunite with Jinx and almost cries when she's hurt in ep. 6. She is just as smitten as Vi
>>4341849ok if we're gonna be doomers about it, Pilties are gonna remember that Caitlyn was the one who sold them out and became a Noxian puppet, and Zaunites are gonna remember that she gassed them while hunting down their favorite quirky martyr. girl isn't gonna get a lot of right swipes on Hexr. but who will still be there, ready to fist her fascist cunt? Vi.
>>4341855This. People kinda forget that Caitlyn shouldn't have any reason to be with Vi after all the mess ups caused by Jinx. She's smitten with Vi, that's true deep unconditional love that'll last a lifetime.
>>4341860Also Vi is one of the few people who actually call her out on her bullshit if she messes up. That gives her more confidence when Violet is beside her
>>4341841The long answer is watch it all again since the series spells it out clearly, but to summarize: Caitlyn distrusted Vi, yet Vi's disarming vulnerability as she is let out of her cell opened Caitlyn's mind to the idea that the prejudice she carried with her into the prison was misplaced. The moment the scales began to fall from her eyes wasn't love at first sight, and Vi's overt flirting soon after obviously pushed the needle in the right direction, but it was the sequence of events after that actually tipped the scale. Vi's fight with Sevika gave Caitlyn an opportunity to show her nature, and while it isn't directly romantic to stop someone from bleeding out it bonded them together with a shared trust. That moment was the foundational moment, as she tenderly cares for Vi and worries over her in her old hideout, a place that was pivotal to the course of events in the entire series as it turned out. As they progress further, Vi's trust in Caitlyn is strengthened by a shared connection leading Vi to Caitlyn's bedroom. From then on their shared attraction is way too obvious so I don't think we need to elaborate more on what motivated their actions. I want to be back in that moment when I watched it for the first time with every ounce of my being.
>>4341821Are you implying stone butch? Could be! Vi enjoying the non-super intimate touches does not preclude this. While it’s not a fun headcanon, it is a realistic one given her traumatic background.
Caitlin is a calm collected topVi is a emotional distracted bottomThey complement each other.
Caitlin is a calm collected topVi is a emotional distracted bottomThey complement each other.>but muh Jinx yuri shipMeh, I don't like Jinx anyways.Nothing lost.
You're all stupid, Vi is a jungler, Caitlyn is AD carry
>>4342018
>>4342006>>4342007did you really need to spam the same post just to seethe about other yuri ships
>>4341927Damn, nice
>>4341929>Vi's overt flirting soon afterSo glad Amanda kept that line in, otherwise we would still have had people questioning whether Vi found Caitlyn attractive or not post S1.
>>4342021TWO posts are spam?
> "I hate the way you walk around, like you're Princess Caitlyn of the mall, and I'm just some gutter rat. I hate the way you look at me when there's no one else around, but wouldn't be caught dead with me in town. Maybe our whole thing was just a huge mistake. So if you want me to go, I'm gone. But ask, and I will stay. -Vi" Vi being Cait's dirty little secret is so hot.
>>4342047I'd like this more if I was into high school shit
>>4342047Try not to post old images, we’ll hit the image limit that way
>>4342055The last thread made it to ~1300 posts before hitting the image limit. We aren't getting a whole lot of CaitVi art.
>>4342065I have a lot of new art but don't wanna spam
>>4342065Most new fanart wasn't posted here but on /co/, also that was while the show was releasing so lots of discussion, now it'll mostly be fanart
>>4342069Feel free, sis.
>>4342075Or you could go back to whatever dumpster board you are from.
>>4342047She isn't a secret anymore, Cait responds to the text and they go to the prom
>>4341825>>4341830Oh yeah, Big time. Caitlyn is a sharp shooter, and for A cool minute, that girl is unaware of her surroundings.
>>4341830>>4341821You kidding? Vi loves touching and being touched as it is caitvi's love language. Vi curling into Caitlyn in the end should have made that obvious. She craves Caitlyn's touch.
Do you think Vi touched herself during her pitfighter era while thinking of Caitlyn?Do you think Caitlyn thought of Vi while fucking Maddie? Did she touch herself after the sex while having Vi in mind?
>>4342188100% the later happened, Cait tried to fill the whole but she couldn't
>>4342188Not sure if Vi did, I have a feeling her need wasn't as much physical at the time as it was emotional. Cait definitely did though.
>>4342019>cait has been ruined by the noxus ginger to the point that Vi needs hextech powered tools to get a O out of her. Noxus girls dont play around.
>>4342188I think Vi was too drunk to do anything more then role around in her own sweat&vomit on her free time during the pitfighter time.
>>4342207Maddie was a woman on a mission.
>>4342188>Do you think Vi touched herself during her pitfighter era while thinking of Caitlyn?Oh yeah, sometimes you just get stuck thinking about what you would do, if that individual resporcated your affections. Tell me It isnt the majority of the population that does that when they want someone, and KNOW if given the chance they Both know, they would Both take it. >Do you think Caitlyn thought of Vi while fucking Maddie? Yup! hell im willing to say the ONLY reason she slept with maddy At All is because she NEEDED Vi, but she had so many conflicting feelings, Vi was not a possibility at the time. >Did she touch herself after the sex while having Vi in mind?Yeah, after a wile of touching yourself, it dawns on you that you CAN just try to get with someone else. But most likely, after someone you KNOW you're in love with is just gone, the mere thought of them is a turn on. Then you get those alone time flashbacks, Its what tends to drive people to never be single. The inability to fill in that missing spaceThere are some couples that are just MEANT to be together, Its kinda why i personally fear having chemistry, YOU CANT HIDE IT. An Everyone can See It, feel it, fantasize about it. It tends to put the two people interested in each other in a compromising position. They Both like each other, But for what ever reason they cant act on it. Then IRL they are doomed to just walk away because, they both knew what could have been. Its kinda what makes a good story, Its what EVERYbody wants, but cant have, irl, making a mistake is expansive, and most people cant afford it. In stories, we get to dream about what could have been with no guilt of not having done enough, or just making the wrong move. <3
>>4342191I think you mean Maddie tried to fill the hole but couldn't.
>>4342069this is /u/ you can do that
>>4342214>hell im willing to say the ONLY reason she slept with maddy At All is because she NEEDED ViStop excusing Cait's actions. She slept with Maddie because she's horny and she needed a quick and easy fuck. She's been canonically been doing that since way before meeting Vi.
>>4342293That's kinda morbid
>>4342300>because she's hornynta but I feel like that's reductive, Cait doesn't strike me as someone who can't control her libido. More likely she just needed physical comfort, because physical touch is her way of communicating with people. With Vi unavailable Maddie had an easy way in. Especially if she intentionally placed herself there according to Ambessa's plan
>>4342302That makes it even more disgusting. You need physical touch so you just use someone as a fuckdoll to fill that empty space? That's selfish as fuck
>>4342302I wonder what Maddie's briefing was. Ambessa probably didn't want her to be too good in bed because she'd want Cait a little depressed and unfulfilled, but still into Maddie. "Give her an above average time?"
>>4342303Well we don't know the extent Cait herself sought out Maddie or if the latter was the one who coaxed Cait in to it. Humans are selfish creatures for the most part though anon.
>>4342307Apparently during a fan viewing of 204 with amanda overton and Katie Townsand, it was talked about in a skit that Maddie approached Caitlyn in an Enforcer bar. There is a reason her tag line is "not afraid to shoot her shot". It was literally in reference in how they hooked up.
>>4342303Nothing wrong with casual relationships if everyone's on the same page. Cait's a decent person, so I doubt she let Maddie think this was going to be some great romance. Besides, Maddie was almost certainly trying to seduce her.
I know 4chan is usually autistic on this but the Maddie stuff really doesn't seem that deep. Cait never slept with her in her room and things ended pretty quickly, she already had broken up with her once Vi came back and Ambessa even mentions that Violet was the one who captured her heart.
>>4342315>she already had broken up with her once Vi came backWhy do you think that?
>>4342316"i saw someone" she says in the past tense and she seems pretty annoyed whenever Maddie tried to comfort her.
>>4342311>Cait drunk and miserable over Vi in a bar>Vi drunk and miserable over Cait in her roomShould've been in the show desu
Vi is the little spoon right?
>>4342320The difference is that Vi is loyal and Caitlyn is unfaithful
>>4342315>Cait never slept with her in her roomThat was her room.She fucked Maddie in the same bed where she had that romantic moment with Vi.And the other funny thing is that she also fucks Vi while she's still with Maddie. Oh, and tucks Vi into the same bed where days before she was fucking Maddie. I bet Maddie's pussy juices are still on it.
>>4342327Unfaithful in what way, they're not in a relationship when Maddie happens
>>4342328>that was her roomliterally it wasn't>fucks Vi while she's still with Maddieagain this literally isn't true
>>4342327back to /tv/ u go
>>4342331Where's your proof that it wasn't her room
>>4342335Check both pictures and you'll see the two big ass concrete pillars missing from the room were Maddie is in
>>4342338Post the pictures
>>4342329>they're not in a relationship when Maddie happensHow do you know, they never broke up on screen
>>4342341... Because they don't live together anymore, have clearly not seen each other for a long time, and Cait is with someone else? You seem really desperate to make Cait in to a cheater.
>>4342340Nigga just go to reddit and find the post
>>4342347I'm too lazy for that. I want to be spoonfed. Well meh I know my memory is that the rooms looked the same, just different curtain color.
>>4342344How are we supposed to infer from any of that that they broke up?And let's say they did, why didn't they bother showing it more explicitly? People will unironically start thinking thar Caitlyn is a cheater, but ends up blameless because Maddie was a spy in the end.
>>4342317I don't think she'd have broken up with Maddie before reconnecting with Vi. Nothing implies it and their relationship seemed like a decent enough distraction. She probably ended things with Maddie between episodes six and eight.
>>4342354Anon, you're smarter than that. Cait hits her with the butt of her gun and they go their separate ways for weeks or months. Of course they aren't together.
>>4342354>They didn't broke up>Vi pit-fighter skin literally calls Cait her ex
>>4342354There's about a million things they could (and in many cases should) have shown but they didn't. All we can do is infer the writers' intentions from what we do see. And the intention with Maddie is clearly to suggest Cait needed some kind of affection during Vi's absence.. because Vi couldn't provide it herself.. because they aren't together. It's a pretty simple line of reasoning.
>>4342355So she still broke up with her somewhat>>4342350You can tell they are different rooms once u light up the image and see the missing pillars, im not gonna search the post but wathever
>>4342304Did they ever reveal if Maddie was a Piltover traitor or an actual Noxus plant. Her whole 'I enjoyed your warmth' felt oddly like something I could see someone from a military society like Noxus to say.
>>4342365We don't know, but yes that line definitely suggests it was mostly physical in nature for Maddie.
>>4342357>>4342358You don't read.>>4342359Ok, whatever I give up on this. I'm just gonna accept that the writing for caitvi took a deep dive in S2.
>>4342365She's from Noxus, its been confirmed
Can we all just agree that Maddie was a mistake? She wasn't even a good character on her own and her existence added unnecessary toxicity to Caitvi.
>>4342372Yeah I mean I think everyone agrees on that, especially considering Amanda herself came out and said the whole breakup/maddie thing was only put in because their relationship would've been too "boring" otherwise.
>>4342375>because their relationship would've been too "boring" otherwise.Thanks, Amanda. Now all the hets hate our ship while praising the AU episode ship just because it's het.
>>4342365This is from Amanda.>>4342372>her existence added [..] toxicity to Caitvi.Yes, that's why she's good. Also triggering purityfags.
>>4342379>t. AmandaIf you're gonna write problematic ships at least write them well.
>>4342380They are.
It's so embarrassing to see people on a red board making a huge deal out of someone having a rebound relationship after a break-up. Did tumblr puriteens invade?
>>4342385Eh it’s newfags, the only thing that would get /u/sera riled up is if she slept with a man
>>4342293I despise this meme.
>>4342328>>4342328I thought it was the same room, but its not. Different bed, and floor plan. Still hot to think that Caitlyn loves the smell of pussy juice on her sheets. Probably even likes the stains as a midnight snack. More so if its virgin blood. Caitlyn's a hot freak.
>>4342379
>>4342404I just think it's nice she has a separate bedroom for the less important girlfriends.
>>4342409Caitlyns a horny hound dog.
>>4342370>>4342379>>4342406Pretty smart then, because Maddie absolutely doesn't look like someone you'd expect from a place like Noxus. Just goes to show how dangerous Noxians are.
>Caitlyn is a tougher person than ViThis is so offensive and goes to show that the creators didn't give a shit about Vi.
>>4342504I knew retards on twitter were going to get triggered by that but I didn't expect the same stupidity here.
>>4342504>in this end>because of the emotional toil>(vi's trauma is) still pretty rawI just read it as Cait being mentally stronger in the moment of the ending because Vi went through more shit and more recently than her. Not that Cait is tougher than Vi.
>>4342504I never have any interest in interviews and actively avoid them most of the time. They always reduce a story's complexity too much in order to fit the format. There is so much visual and textual allusion in this series and they aren't going to give the time needed to do it justice in an interview, so it gets lost with plain answers and boring metaphors. I want some heft in an analysis backed up by sources, scenes, quotes, expressions. Less personal interpretation and move providing the ammunition for the viewer to see the connection themselves. Instead this answer turned hours of characterization into a soundbite reinterpretation and it just feels so boring and pointless to engage with it at all. Where is the mention of how this conversation happens in the same room, with literally the same character positions, as Ambessa and Caitlyn's discussion about strength and forgiveness? Instead of Ambessa talking about being consumed by anger and revenge as she literally sits stoking the flames, Vi sits in front of the fireplace and hums her mother's tune which captivates Caitlyn's attention from the hexgate duct revenge rabbithole. Their toughness in this moment is such an arbitrary value in a scene made so tender by their actions, and the way the interview makes Caitlyn's rationale sound callous really does it a disservice. Reading that interview makes me feel nothing, but I just watched the last minute of the last episode a few times to make sure I was being accurate and it made me want to cry with happiness.
All that shit talking, im still happy about it. Because at the end of the day.. CANNON

I love everything about the sequence of events, the fact that Caitlyn takes off her OWN shirt, surprising Vi, and removes Vi's shirt. Its beautiful. You can see that Caitlyn knows something like that had to happen. It feels like Caitlyn is removing Vi's chains. And letting her finally touch her freely. Its almost as if finally getting permission to have peace around someone for Once!
Not just the fujos get beautiful fanart!
>>4342673That's very pretty
>>4342673Glorious Evolution
>>4342504>CLwell there's your problem
>>4342512Kek. Because the mentally ill and are having their head canons destroyed. Rightfully so. Thinking they know better then the creators of these characters themselves while the fans are shallow, horny and suck at writing.
>>4341062I hope we gait Syndrelia interactions in the Ionia show. Ahri's been milked dry and they've gone out of their way to make as least /u/ as possible.
>>4342854It's so funny that they're screaming bad writing while misinterpreting basic facts that literally get explained on screen and then scream again when the creators have harmless takes that they read in the most bad faith ways possible. No maybe you've just been projecting on and fandomizing these character for years to the point you've built them up to be something they're not. I don't even agree with everything that's come out of the writers but it's been crazy.Jayviks have been especially hilarious to watch cope in real time.
>>4342856Kissing is so hot, why is kissing so hot
>>4342856I think Linke doesn't really understand Vi, unironically.He said in a recent interview that Vi was constantly abusing Powder and she was a bad older sister.He also said that this was gonna be Vi's season where S1 was Jinx's season. KekHe also just blatantly admitted that the reason Vi is such a background character this season is because they simply found other characters more interesting.And now this interview where his Caitlyn bias clearly shows, and Vi is once again reduced to being a weakling. It's insanely jarring and I'm not even that invested.
>>4342860I agree with most points but>And now this interview where his Caitlyn bias clearly shows, and Vi is once again reduced to being a weakling.Are you fucking retarded? he didn't say that, he said that at the end after everything Vi had to endure Caitlyn is more stable than her AT THE ENDING SCENE, hes talking especially of the ending scene. Caitlyn asks her about the fight and is afraid of Vi being to traumatized to keep moving foward because she dealt with more loses than a human might take
>>4341062Missing my favorite goth and jock pairing.
This is fucking gorgeous fanart.
>>4342866Cait looks cute with that headband
>>4342864The man is bad at wording his thoughts then. Meh I'm just happy with a canon lesbian couple who got plenty of on screen kisses and on screen sex.
>>4342869Yup. I don't believe English is his first language and had been deleting posts on twitter when he thinks he misinterpreted something lashed out. Vi's story ain't done though. She still needs to go from this malencholic girl with no vision to optaining one. She hasn't earned the title Defender of Piltover yet and I do believe thats why he said that their story isn't over.
>>4342866You have such low standards.
>>4342873She has finally someone who can help her come back from her mental state,someone who's also hardened from traumas and loves her for once
>>4342860I don't know what the source of your first two points are but the comment about them being interested in exploring other characters this season and Vi being "weak" here were definitely being read in bad faith. The screen time comment especially was the most nothing controversy ever. He just said yes Vi got less screen time this season and they were interested in exploring other characters. That doesn't mean they found Vi uninteresting and she still got the 3rd highest behind Jinx and Cait iirc.Also I just generally liked where Vi's character went in s2 and don't agree with a lot of complaints to begin with. I spent all of s1 thinking too much shit was getting heaped on her plate for what she went through and Jinx was expressing all her trauma openly while Vi had to suck everything up and not process it. Her losing her purpose in s2 because she lost the protector role that she was forced in from childhood and having to be saved through actions of love from her loved ones is very satisfying to me. Do I wish the season was less rushed and she got more introspection and a side plot that didn't revolve around Cait or Jinx? Sure. But the source of these issues affected the season as a whole and I don't think what was done with her was bad.Anyway going back to Linke, I think people need to be more liberal about invoking death to the author, especially with series like Arcane that are collaborative works with multiple visions. I'd feel differently with a solo author's work but when it comes to stuff like this I really can't care if one creator's view doesn't align with mine unless it's like, egregiously bad, and most of what I've been seeing here is trivial. Even with that last interview I interpreted that final Caitvi scene about 80% of how he described it but still have my own further reading and don't care that he didn't confirm it.
The last scene is easy as fuck to read isn't it?>They dont find a body>Vi starts humming >Cait listens and gives up on finding any info on Jinx after Vi decides to move on, she also moves onWhat else do you read on this shit?
>>4342877People were confused about the "are you still in this fight violet" and "dirt under your fingernails" lines.
>>4342876TL;DR
>>4342877I don't think she gave up. She just went to see her waifu cause she was acting cheerful for the first time after a long time.
>>4342888there is 0 reason for Caitlyn to try and find Jinx, once she knows Vi is moving on she also tries
>>4342886>Cait walking around the house>Vi checks her ass>neuron activation>need for procreate>corners cait and hard fucks her
>>4342875Yes and this is where her healing starts. But she still needs to become that smart ass dirty cop that is hated by Zaun and fans are doomed to despise because they have the "I can change them" attitude about a fictional character. They will be rooting for Jhin to kill her if they haven't done so already.
>>4342890Caitlyn cares about Vi and probably knows that Vi would be extremely happy to hear that her sister is alive.I don't think Vi will go after Jinx, though. Vi respects people's decisions when they decide to move on from her.
>>4342890>there is 0 reason for Caitlyn to try and find Jinxthen why is she investigating her fake death in the first place?
>>4342894they didn't found the body, Caitlyn is just crafting theories and this is before Vi shows signs of being cheerful.
>>4342894Could be that she is very mich like us and if there is a possible conspiracy that Jinx is alive, she will entertain it. Doesn't hurt anyone.
>>4342892Some of my favorite lesbian pairings are cops (Wayhaught, Pepsi) I don't give a fuck what the fandom thinks.
>>4342877>>4342895>Vi decides to move on>being cheerfulYou're reading a lot into Vi humming. It's the song Powder hums in the opening of the very first episode, seems more like Vi is remembering her sister in her own way.
>>4342901I read that scene as being the first sign of life coming out of Vi. Keep in mind we know Jinx survived, but Vi doesn't know this and has probably been in deep mourning ever since.Caitlyn is happy to finally see some life coming out of Vi.
>>4342901You understand that she decides to move on when she says the dirt under your nails line
>>4342901Could be that she is also just self soothing while remembering her family while swirling Vanders glass from the mines. Definitely feels safe and comfortable enough to share it with Caitlyn who is just 12ft away from her. Or could be that she wants some attention.
>>4342865
>>4342905it sounds like you either don't know what that phrase means, or you're just being needlessly obtuse with your interpretation of it in the context of the scene.
People here are so hostile.
>>4342912k bro, then tell me what does that mean when even on fucking interviews they say that this means she's still on the fight
I'm sad now.
>>4342914you are saying it yourself... she's still in the fight. she's not moving on from it. they still have work to do.
>>4342866They both look like women so I’m happy.>>4342915The other image in the set.
>>4342918>The other image in the set.I hope Vi finds out at some point that jinx/powder is alive and is happy.
Girl in red was asked to write the song for the sex scene and let's just say we should be glad she wasn't chosen
>>4342921That was painful to listen to. The anon who placed it as the music for the make out scene made my clit shrivel and retreat.
So did the actresses make-out and record the sounds of themselves for the scene?
>>4342925Yeah. Sure. Just ignore one of them got engaged recently.
>>4342925Yes
>>4342925No they got some cute assistants to make those noises.
>>4342925Sounds ethical
>>4342928What does that matter?
>>4342958Fuck I've done the thing purityfags do and didn't catch myself until you pointed it out.
>>4342984>Piltie councillors getting their submission thrill fix by privately submitting to Zaunites Mel and Cait really are naughty
>>4342921>>4342923For anyone who missed it:https://x.com/sowuha/status/1867310801322639383?s=61&t=3ZiOsS0DX5Kidq-o7AMefQDevoid of passion. Was Girl In Red trolling?
>>4343025I'm sure they could have picked a better part of the song to use for that clip and still dunked on it, but also Fantastic was perfect for the scene so I can't really care what twitter thinks.
>>4342946Just like the Blue is the Warmest Color movie!
>>4342925They usually kiss the back of their own hands and stuff like that. It's all pretend.
>>4343042I like Fantastic but I wish they'd altered the lyrics slightly to get rid of words like America. It was a little jarring
>>4343049Ionian classics
>>4343049Gotta say while watching the scene I barely comprehend the lyrics the moment Vi makes contact with Caitlyn's lips, regardless of the fact I've watched the scene dozens of times and had the song stuck in my head on loop with perfect lyrical recollection.
>>4343025I just spit out all my water hahahahah
>>4343049I liked the America reference. A lot of the other songs are a bit on-the-nose so it's nice to get one that references a whole different universe.
>>4343025The L word tier sex scene music
>>4343136Are you implying that America canonically exists in an AU?
>>4343025Lol sounds like jrpg bgm

>>4343292That's delicious, and finally an artist that doesnt remove all of Vi's feminine features

https://gizmodo.com/arcanes-amanda-overton-talks-love-conflict-and-all-things-caitvi-2000537334New Amanda interview
>>4343346It's nice to hear so much insight on Caitlyn and Vi. I feel sort of proud to have seen their whole journey from beginning to end and knowing that they were always intended to be endgame. Now I will rewatch S1 again with this in mind.
>>4343346while i like the mention that Cait regrets everything, why not have a verbal apology?
>>4343363It says right there her showing it in actions and not words was the intention. I would have taken a verbal apology for hitting Vi because that sucked but for everything else actions fit much better.
>>4343364Yeah ik but "I always approach writing a sex scene the same way I approach writing an action scene [and] a dialogue scene. There have to be dramatic twists and turns that happen in that action that reveals something about the characters, from how playful they are, how vulnerable they are, and the way they look at each other. Every single moment of that, you had to learn something new about their relationship. It says a lot about the action of the apology, the action of Cait having regret for having hit Vi at the end of episode three. All of that is in there." like i get the regret she feels about hitting Vi, you can see how hesitant she is to touch her but why not have a single word like "i'll never hurt you again" or some shit
>>4343369>you can see how hesitant she is to touch her but why not have a single word like "i'll never hurt you again" or some shitThe implication is there, to me it was obvious that all the hurt those two hurled at each other wasn't done out of malice. They were both dealing with extraordinary difficult circumstances. For example I don't think Vi truly meant what she said when saying Cait was acting like Jinx, which is a very tonedeaf thing to do given the circumstance they were in. But she was upset and wasn't thinking rationally.
>>4343369Yeah no I agree. I feel like there might have been some disconnect in how harsh the hit came off between writing to animation. If it was even framed somewhat differently it wouldn't have bugged me but ep 3 makes a huge spectacle of it.
>>4343374my guess is that on paper she didn't even properly hit her and just pushed her away
Even though I agree that Caitlyn redeemed herself, I also think they missed out by not making her apologize loud and clearly about the gut punch.
>>4343377whats more frustrating is that on the sex scene YOU CAN SEE IT CLEARLY that she feels alot for hurting Vi, if Vi never pulled her in im almost sure Caitlyn would've verbally apologize
>>4343346>I think we always try to show with actions—I think actions are far more powerful than words. So we always knew that Caitlyn’s apology to Vi would take place in the way she was able to forgive Jinx. She had Jinx in custody. She could have gotten the justice that she always wanted. Instead, she chooses Vi. In letting Vi escape and have the key, there’s a world where Vi and Jinx disappear, and she never sees either of them again. So she very selflessly gave up anything she wanted at that moment to try and take an action that would be doing the right thing—that would be atoning for those mistakes.I'd seen other people interpret the scene that way(that Cait was letting Vi leave her)but I wasn't 100% sold on it. Hearing it was actually intentional I love that.
>>4343384Why? I thought it was pretty damn obvious. Remove all guards > give Vi the freedom to free Jinx > Vi and Jinx escape together > Caitlyn never sees Vi again
>>4343379I bet many people don't pay attention to this because they're A) not shippers orB) they skip the whole scene altogether because they're uncomfortable watching sex scenes or they're homophobicIt was a big mistake not having her verbally applogize
>>4343387That's not what you see Vi want to do and Cait clearly predicted what did happen as one of the outcomes, so I wasn't convinced on how much the thought of Vi just up and leaving would have been on her mind. I did understand that reading, just wasn't sold on it myself.
I have a cursed picture saved from a /tv/ thread last night, it tought it was a close up of Vi's in shorts, but now i'm not sure if it's /u/ or not. Mind you, there is no buldge, it still think it's Vi.
>>4343392You should go back and stay there.
>>4343392if you aren't even sure that it's her character or not, and you aren't even sure that it belongs on this board, then why post it at all? are you new here?
>>4343388Anon, you realize you're arguing for stupider writing here, right?
>>4343392I want to bleach my eyes now.
>>4343395/tv/ arcane threads have a lot of /u/ stuff. It's more popular there then straight stuff.
>>4343402Still a shithole.
>>4343392Literally GAGGED
>>4343419I like a bit of bush.
>>4343392It’s disgusting either way bro
>>4342984I don't know why, but I can't see Sevika using a strap-on. Nothing against them, perfect for Vi and Caitlyn, but Sevika would fuck Mel with her fingers.
>>4343420That's a bit TOO much bush
>>4343346>Honestly, the first time that was pitched to me—it wasn’t my original idea—I was like, “Really, the jail cell?” Thank you! someone finally fucking said it that the setting was weird as fuck.
>>4343446>someone finally fucking said itWhere have you been, cant browse xitter without people bitching about it
>>4343440This artist is so goated
>>4343446Did you just watch the last season or what?
>>4343450This was so insane lol. on the other hand Cait and Vi are freaks.
>>4343452It's fucked up what it is, Vi once again confirming she is shit sister.
>>4343453Oh shut up you big baby
>>4343457No, you.
>>4343453As far as Jinx knows, Vi just torched her life to be with her and she tells Vi no. At some point you're going to have to let other people make their decisions.
>>4343458Cait has no right looking this hot when she's about to die
>>4343460My question is, did she expect to die in the final battle?
>>4343462Who knows, season 2 has a lot of cut content to make it all fit in 9 episodes. For example in that scene where she is shooting cait there are two black white shots, one of them shows her with a wierd smile while shooting cait. People wonder if this is something that survived from a cut part of the story.
>>4343465heard that's Mel's empath abilities. Maddie the bitch was realllly enjoying that
>>4343467I read that theory too, but the sadistic smile doesnt add up to the thing she says just before she is about to shoot her.
>>4343465That feels more like an easter egg than a remnant of cut content.
>>4343469What, the I enjoyed your warmth line? That was super sarcastic
>>4343440Cool art but why is jinx a granny?
>>4343473It sounds like that to you? It felt genuine to me.
Who is hornier Vi or Cait? i think Cait has to watch out because Vi only thinks of sex 24/7 to the point that she can't leave the bed somedays
>>4343478After they broke up, Vi started boxing and crawled into a bottle. Cait picked up a Scottish rebound girl she fucked in her designated second tier girlfriend bedroom.
>>4343478>Who is hornier Vi or Cait?Cait 100%
>>4343475It sounded like her just rubbing salt in the wound to me.
>>4343473>>4343469>>4343467There was an hour long interview released recently with Maddie's VA, and she said that she felt Maddie had a moment of remorse before shooting Cait. Among other things.
>>4343478Cait ,she can hardly contain herself. was already eye fucking Vi on day 1 of meeting>>4343480This
>>4343474>single mom>constantly on shimmer>has a psychotic break on every day that ends in Y>no older sister pussygirl has lots of city miles from all the stress
>>4343481KEK I kinda love that they broke stereotypes with them. Cait is the femme but she's a horny player and way more dominant than Vi, and Vi is the butch but she's soft, sentimental and extremely loyal
>>4343478Cait, Vi is all soft, Cait is prob her first real gf
>>4343487I like to think she had a relationship with the fellow prisoner who made her back tattoo. That thing is a clear labor of love and Vi must have really trusted the artist to expose her back to her for dozens of hours.
>>4343486Also, Vi is not very smart, and needs somebody like cait to keep her from doing something stupid.
>>4343487No way, teen Vi too hot and too much sass to be single
>>4343478Is this even a serious question?
>>4343478Cait is hornier but Vi is much more physically demanding when she gets in the mood. Which is why Cait probably teases her a lot since she knows eventually Vi will snap and dominate her completely.
>>4343500>Vi will snap and dominate her completely>will snap and dominate her>dnap and dominate>dominateHa...haha..HAHAHAHA. if we have learned anything, it is that Vi's a push over. She forgives too easy, lashs out when scared, and never makes the first move. She never had a love life and froze up when approached intimately because she has never known sexual pleasure. Thus why she humps Caitlyn's leg like a virgin bitch in heat. Only sex she knows is either from watching or exchanged her mouth for favors and tattoo supplies. Vi is Caitlyns women, and Caitlyn be a freak who is going to train Vi into being the perfect lover.
Dubious.
>>4343592>never makes the first moveAnon one of the most iconic scenes between those two from S1 is Vi unprompted calling Cait hot before pushing her up against the wall and asking if she prefers men or women
>>4343608Man I miss those times...
> im missing vi's tattoos but this is the type of selfies jinx would post and vi would tell her to take it down bc ppl would start to noticeThat caption. So hot.
>>4343608Bro, that was specifically addressed by Amanda that Vi did that to throw Caitlyn off. It wasn't ment to flirt.
>>4343614I don't think the intentions really matter, she obviously has no issue making a move on someone

Does Caitlyn want it in the butt?
>>4343618Because she isn't romanyically interested in them. Gorbthose who she is genuinely interested in, she freezes up. As we have scene mukyiple times.
>>4343655Yes, alot of the time
>>4343592Wtf is this post , you must have something seriously wrong going on
>AU where teen Vi is hmm just in house Kiramman for disciplinary things :v?Vi’s there to get spanked or deliver spankings?
>>4343740Dude teenage Cait is really soft. If Vi showed up when cait was a teenager she would've melted on spot

>>4343748Being Jinx is suffering
So vampire cait is a fan thing now?
>claim that caitvi is hated now>they actually won the most popular ship on reddit arcanewhat the fuck?
>>4343952Different sites different opinions. Twitter hates it for woke reasons. Reddit has been one of the better places about them.
>>4343961they also won popularity pools on twitter
>>4343962This. i legit thought that on reddit they would lose to timebomb
>>4343962I was following that one as it happened and it was definitely botted.
>>4343961>>4343952>>4343964Timebombfags are just very loud, not the majority.
>>4343952I was surprised cause how in the hell did a LESBIAN pairing beat a het ship AND a yaoi ship?
>>4343972It beating jayvik was obvious they get shit on all the time there. I feel like there's a fair split between timebomb and caitvi fans so it could've gone either way.
>>4343974It doesn't matter I'm still glad they won because we know the creators browse reddit and these polls may seem silly but it's important to show that there's still overwhelming support for caitvi. We might get that spinoff sooner rather than later
>>4343985Oh no I completely agree on that. I usually don't get involved with fandom but I'm trying to be vocal for Arcane in other places because I really don't want the haters' voices to win when it comes to caitvi. Since seeing Amanda reply to instagram DMs I'm thinking of sending her something positive too.
>>4343995Just ask her why she decided to write Caitvi in a way that made it and primarily Caitlyn incredibly controversial while giving timebomb its own entire episode and writing it in a way that got massive normie approval. Feels like she sold us out
I liked s2 a lot but I do wish Vi got a moment of victory, a time to really show off for how much of the show she's miserable, humiliated, and humbled (second only to sevika, who my heart also was opened to surprisingly). But then I think about how great the sex scene was and I sigh dreamily.
>>4344012it just wasn't the season for this IMO, she got torn apart in every conflict that occured ,after the ending she can become the piltover enforcer beat everything
>>4344010Did you miss the part I said positive? People are shitting on her enough that's not going to help us get more caitvi. From bits scattered across her interviews you can see what her intentions were anyway regardless of what you think of execution.Plus I mostly like what s2 did with caitvi. Agree she committed hetcrimes though.
>>4344017It's basically where she ends up and I know it's how the game goes or whatever, but I was kinda hoping they'd find a way to walk away from that. Have her stay with Caitlyn, by all means, but maybe she could stick with being a vigilante or something, not a cop.It's funny though.. as much as it ripped me up to see her down and out and just chumped on, I'm also there like MAN. I really really really wish we had more time to linger with her as the pit fighter. Living a life completely free and not knowing what to do with it. I wanted to breathe that in..
>>4343995I've also been very vocal about spreading positivity about them all around. God if it isn't super important that we see this sort of representation in one of the most expensive animated shows in the west. Funnily enough I also wrote to Amanda. I praised her and her work, I did have 1 little question regarding caitvi which has been bugging me for a while and it's their almost utter lack of interactions in Act 3. I mean! If they're your main couple, show it! Show us their love, show us their touching and soft moments, show us more of them acting like a couple after their sex scene. She didn't reply and I'm sure she didn't even see it.I'm obsessed with these 2 and I'm super grateful for their existence.
>>4344010We have to accept it and I think caitvi was still good in S2. If you see how she talks about them you can tell how much thought she put into them especially Caitlyns redemption in Act 3 that leads up to the sex. Only a blind person watching wouldn't understand thar Caitlyn chose her love for Vi over her hatred/revenge on Jinx at that moment while fully understanding and accepting that Vi could've gotten away from her forever. It was an act of selfless love and God did she deserve Vi eating her mouth and eating her out haha. I love caitlyn so fucking much
>>4344027Nice to hear other people have the same mindset. I try to keep up with media that delivers with canon lesbians and support them but no canon couples(outside of jp yuri manga/vns)have gripped my brain like these two have so I feel especially motivated to do the work.I agree on caitvi's lack of interaction, but if you look at what the rest of the cast got you can see it was sadly a problem overall and not something specific to them. It only stands out with caitvi so much because they have the falling out and hence needed more of those moments to make them patching things up again more satisfying. It's a shame but alas.In my opinion the only characters who have a dynamic similar to the slower paced moments the cast got in s1 was Jinx/Sevika and Jinx/Isha, and even they petered out in the end. Everything else felt like the bare minimum necessary to fuel the plot and get characters where they needed to be. People are glazing jayvik but I thought s2 screwed Viktor over massively despite his screentime hogging of the last act, and he was my favorite out of the males in s1.
>>4344032Well you're not wrong but it feels kind of bad when you see a full episode dedicated to timebomb- a pairing that was completely non sensical before then, I can understand people's frustrations with Caitvi not receiving the same amount of attention, especially, indeed, when them together were also quite absent from act 2. I do think they deserved to have some more talks regarding their fallout and what transcurred in the time they were separated. But well the show ended with them, and they're together, and they seem to be happy. So I'm happy.Agreed on Viktor, he was also my fav from the male cast, his character got completely jumbled up, hard to follow and he's not himself at all. I'm completely uninterested in yaoi pairings but even I could tell that moment was a little bit gay.
>>4344035>I could tell that moment was a little bit gayTo be fair, deep friendships can grow just a little gay
>>4344020Give 1 reason why she shouldn’t become a cop that isn’t some retarded moralfag ging about acab shit
>>4344038This. Also acab is so fucking retarded>acab>caitlyn is one of the only characters who were actually good to Vi
>>4344012>Alive>Has someone she loves by her side>Not missing any body parts>Rich by proxyhonestly she made out like a bandit
>>4344039Honestly people who believe good cops don’t exist and/or cops shouldn’t exist because they saw cases of police brutality are legit retarded. Vi’s lore was written in the previous decade when people were still sane and capable of nuance.
>>4344035That's fair and I agree it was a questionable decision with how much time needed to be spent on other areas too, but people are also over-exaggerating how prominent the romance was. Half the episode was about Jayce suffering in purgatory(hilariously)and there was a lot of thematic groundwork set up in the Ekko parts(like AU Powder's view on Vi being right on the mark for our Vi too).>But well the show ended with them, and they're together, and they seem to be happy. So I'm happy.Cheers to that.
>>4344038Well she clearly doesn't actually like the idea of being a cop, so there's that.
>>4344038Her parents were murdered by enforcersShe was imprisoned for 7 years and received constant beatings from enforcersThere's your reasons, plus the only reason she even accepted the badge was an extreme sense of guilt and responsibility towards Jinx. That's gone now so why should she join now?
>>4344042>AU Powder's view on Vi being right on the mark for our Vi too).This doesn't get talked about enough cause that was so touching. As upset as I was about Vi being dead in that AU and the knowledge that Vi will never be able to be alive in a world where the rest of her family is alive as well, it did give us a lot of insight on how Powder and Ekko view Vi with so much love and admiration.
>>4344044To help Cait change it for the better.
>>4344038Them killing her parents alone is enough. I have no problem with her temporarily becoming one in s2 because the situation called for it but as for long term career I'd like to her to do literally anything else. Cait's housewife sounds good even.
>>4344047I know Arcane is a fantasy series, but this is a bit much.
>>4344047Or how about Vi choosing an entirely different career while Caitlyn busies herself with reforming the enforcers? Dear lord Vi is already dependent enough on Caitlyn, let her have something of her own. My ideal ending would've been Vi being able to live in a separate apartment, still dating Caitlyn but Vi having the chance to self-discover. Vi living in that big mansion where she's hated by Tobias and being completely dependent on Caitlyn does rub me the wrong way so I hope at least Vi gets a tiny bit of agency.
>>4344048Going by this logic Cait shouldn't want to stay with Vi since a Zaunite (and Vi's sister at that) killed her mother. Collective guilt is such a stupid concept.
>>4344044>Her parents were murdered by enforcersKilled, they joined a violent uprising and got killed. FAFO
>>4344052You choose a job you don't choose how you're born. I think you're being obtuse on purpose here.
>>4344052Caitlyns mother was killed as a result of the oppression committed on Zaunites by Piltover. It's absolutely not the same thing. Caitlyn herself also understands this. Vi's hatred of Enforcers makes a lot more sense when you take into account that her people have faced systematic oppression for years, Vi's parents were killed by the oppressors and Vi was kept unjustly imprisoned for years by these very same oppressors.
>>4344055Completely irrelevant, you're the one pushing a collective guilt angle, not me.
>>4344051They’re literally piltover’s finest, a top cop team, that’s literally the core of their design people fell in love with and started shipping.
>>4344057Thank you for telling me you're being obtuse on purpose.
>>4344058Arcane already undid all the lore from League of Legends. And they're the ones who decided to make Vi's backstory as tragic as it is where it leaves no room for logical explanations for Vi joining the enforcers willingly and consciously.
>>4344056Except she wasn’t, jinx didn’t shoot that rocket because of oppression or to make a political statement. God you Twitter moralfags are so tiring to talk to.
>>4344051>Vi living in that big mansion where she's hated by TobiasI have my own misgivings with the ending but there's no way Tobias wasn't locked in the attic once Caitlyn started her dictator arc.
You're all forgetting the most important reason she shouldn't become an Enforcer: she looked ass in that uniform.
>>4344053Do you think Vi sees it that way?
>>4344051why do you think Vi becoming an enforcer means she's entirely dependent on Cait? You think Vi doesnt like fighting and beating people who rightfully deserve up? Thats her whole personality in game,sure they might wont join the enforcers right now but i dont see how she would se Caitlyn taking action on helping the undercity (especially if some shit like Urgot comes around) and Vi wont help her. She kept the badge in act2 + act3, i dont think Vi is as repulsed by the idea of becoming an enforcer as you guys think
>>4344061Vi likes combat, she likes taking down criminal scum. She has every reason to join a new, non-corrupt police force that actually protects people.
>>4344062Jinx is a creation of the oppression committed on Zaun by Piltover anon. She's the result of it . The rocket is the result of it.
>>4344063Also, the Tobias hating vi is mostly fan memes and headcanon
>>4344067Police brutality Vi is a LoL-only thing lmao. That worked back then because people weren't so stuck up about cops yet. They'd be shooting themselves in the foot if they make that her endgame again. Why not have Vi open an orphanage in Zaun where The Last Drop used to be for example?
>>4344044>>4344048Here's the thing, and that it something that is bigger than her parents death actually: her becoming an enforcer, and a fair one at that, is another step towards a permanent peace between Piltover and Zaun that her mother of all people wished for. That's also why Sevika is on the council instead of Cait. It's not just 'muh cops', it's about being a symbol of hope and change.
>>4344068No , jinx is a creation of silco and/or vi if you believe the creators. If Vander had raised her she wouldn’t have become jinx. You retards can’t give any character agency, it’s all oppression Olympics.
>>4344069It's in the canon but you can argue that he was grief stricken so he wasn't thinking clearly.
>>4344051I agree with you on the career part. Personally I'd love to see Vi explore new hobbies post s2 and get a job in something else.As for living with Cait I think it's fine. Tobias was at the height of grief when he snapped about Vi so I can just headcanon their relationship improving.
>>4344056No, she was killed as a result of Jinx firing a rocket at the councillor building. Your retarded logic only works as long as you pick and choose when and where to place the guilt. >UM ACTHUALLY IT WAS THE FAULT OF PILTOVER'S SYSTEMATIC OPPRESSIONThe people who set up Piltover's systems were all Zaun merchants to begin with. So if we're going with the sins of the father angle I guess Zaun is ultimately to blame for everything.
>>4344071Vi was never "police brutality xD" after 2017, if you see her LoR story she never target innocents or beat random Zaunites on the street, the people her and Caitlyn fight are like fucking Ted bundy tier of psycopathy and she loves beating them up to a pulp, she really enjoys fighting
>>4344066Clearly because she kept the badge on even after her breakup with Caitlyn.
>>4344071Why the fuck would vi open an orphanage? Jesus Christ, you think vi wants to sit on her ass being a mother hen raising kids? She can be a cop without being police brutality vi, hell it’s clear in both seasons that Vi absolutely loves fighting people to protect people
Oh hell xitter discourse have arrived here
>>4344073sis, you need to find a different show to watch if you're seething over 'oppression olympics'
>>4344073Jinx is a creation of many factors but it's mainly the shitty circumstances of living in Zaun.
I want /tv/ to leave
>>4344077Exactly, hell Vi was in her absolute element in season 1 beating up the chem tanks and then Sevika. These anons have read too much slice of life AU’s , “um I think Vi should open a soup kitchen in Zaun”
>>4344076Anon she was working under Silcos orders who was Piltovers enemy #1 Folks like Silco exist because of Piltovers oppression.It's simple mathCaitlyns mother death is not the same as Powder and Vi's parents deaths
>>4344081Except I shouldn’t, because arcane is and remains more nuanced than the oppression olympics people like you wanted it to be with Zaun being the good guys and piltover being the bad guys
>>4344082Nope, it’s mainly silco. Silco died and she pretty much immediately become a good person.
>Welcome to the league of legends champion spotlight featuring Vi, the Piltover Orphan caretakerYou guys seem so fucking delusional, she's a CHAMPION in LEAGUE "uuuh but muh canon" the season has ended and her name in league still fucking is Vi the piltover enforcer, why the fuck was she wearing the badge on act 3?
>>4344087There's no way you can be a Piltover apologist after the show has been trying to show and to tell you that Piltover was just dumping their trash on Zaun for the sake of progress? Where Jayce found it very normal to build an atomic bomb in Zaun because at least if it exploded it wouldn't be in Piltover? What show have you been even watching?
>>4344085And the Enforcers were working under Marcus' orders who was in Silco's pocket. Should we absolve the enforcers of their misdeeds too then? After all, we clearly cant place any agency on Jinx here. The further you go with this reasoning the deeper the hole you dig yourself.
>>4344085Everything goes back to oppression with you guys. I don’t think you can analyse any show or character without using that word every other sentence.
they'd be such a power couple if Jinx was still alive.
>>4344089>hurry durr Vi enjoys beating people up so she's right in her element as a copHow about the message of her arc that she SHOULD NOT be using her firsts to solve problems? I would love for her to explore other talents and yes even if that means helping raise orphans because she's a fuckin orphan herself.
>>4344090A show where plenty of people in piltover are good, moral people and plenty of people in Zaun are horrible criminals with no morals to speak of. Zaun isn’t impressed, it’s literally just a poor neighbourhood controlled by criminal gangs.
You Americans are all fucking retards.
If you really think about it Caitlyn's love for Vi is much stronger than Vi's for Caitlyn cause who in their right mind would date the sister of their mother's killer? She's like a walking reminder of that trauma.
>>4344094That’s not the message of her arc though. Also orphans have no obligation to dedicate their lives to taking care of orphans nor has vi ever been shown to have any interest in taking care of orphans. Vi showed absolutely 0 interest in Isha nor played with her and you think she wants to be some nanny orphan raiser. Meanwhile she’s been shown consistently to like combat and fighting but because you don’t like that you think she should do something else like become a saxophone player.
Cait, Loris, Maddie and even Cassandra all show Vi more respect and care than any Zaunite does after she's released from Stillwater.Vi still keeps her Piltover's Finest belt even during the Pitfighter arcObviously she will have reservations about the enforcers because of what happened in the past, but it's very insulting to suggest Vi is so emotionally blinded she can't recognise the nuance after spending time with them. Just like Cait started to do after spending time with Vi in Zaun.
>>4344097100%, the way they talk about cops you’d think they are devils, in my country they don’t even have guns and are so whipped they barely do anything
>>4344100>become a saxophone player.Ngl I'd dig that
>Vi likes fighting to protect innocents and enjoys the thrill of the combat itself>Love of her life is in a position were she can help Vi repair Zaun, also Vi can provide very good info on how to navigate Zaun>She keeps her badge in act 2 and wears a totally new one on act 3, CAITLYN NEVER ASKED HER FOR THIS.Yeah guys, she fucking hates being an enforcer, she'll prob become a bartender
>>4344101Isn't it beautiful how Vi and Cait can show each other the positive things of their respective cities?
>>4344094Listen, Vi saw Jinx take in an orphan, and yeah it made her the happiest she's ever been, but the orphan also exploded in front of them. And then Jinx tried to kill herself, at the exact moment Vi was eating piltie princess pussy. I'd be put off orphans, to say the least.
>>4344105Honestly cleaning up the streets of Zaun from all the criminal gangs running the street is exactly what Vi’d want to do. The only question is whether she’d do so as an enforcer or as a vigilante
>>4344099I think they're both into each other a crazy degree considering the fucked up web of everything that happens between them, but I was genuinely shocked Vi was the only person she let herself break down in front of in ep 1. Girl is down bad.
>>4344107Also, pretty much the only interaction that vi had with that orphan was punching her lol.
>>4344110>anon sees Vi punch an orphan so hard she goes flying >”omg, she should start an orphanage!”
>>4344099It goes both ways though. Zaun killed Cait's mother and Piltover killed Vi's parents.
>>4344093Sevika is the only good person in all of this. Even after being Silco's goon
>>4344091Look it’s very simple, if you’re middle class or higher, you’re culpable for your misdeeds. If you’re lower class, you’re not culpable it’s all the fault of the system
>>4344099Cait fell first and harder.
>>4344112Vander blamed silco for their deaths, not piltover
>>4344108Warwick fills the vigilante role, together with Ekko kinda.
>>4344110Vi, knowing that the last time she punched out a small girl with blue hair it led to Caitlyn's parent dying: I hope I don't have to wait 7 whole years for Isha to clip Tobias
>>4344114Nope, betrayed Vander causing Zaun to become an absolute drug and crime ridden shithole under Silco
>>4344112No, dating the direct family of the person who killed your direct family is a different level of deranged.Not to mention the Jinx kidnapping Cait naked and trying to make Vi kill her part.
>>4344117Because, it turns out, Silco escalated the entire thing even if he didn't mean to. Not unlike Powder did by building her little hextech bomb in Act 1 of Season 1. That's the parallel that runs between both sisters and their most influential father figures.
>>4344119Sadly Isha got things messed up and killed Vi’s father instead of Caits
>>4344105Yeah it's silly. -Especially- because she's with Caitlyn and Vi knows just how much Cait has been doing to try to fix things. >sees and hears how hard Cait fights with the council over the injustice being done on the innocents in Zaun over the Silco situation, with her mother granting them an audience directly with the council to air those grievances>hears how hard Cait fought for Vi to be granted a position with the enforcers>sees and hears how Cait shut down the inhumane parts of StillwaterI think once the pair of them recover Vi would be happy to do Enforcer work with Cait as the new Sherriff>>4344106Yeah it would be nice if that could be what people focus on instead.
>>4344120Sevika absolutely deserved to be beaten up by Vi. The fucking cunt shows her hypocrisy in S2 too when she says we never hand over our own bitch as if you didn't do exactly that
>>4344122So basically silco was probably the guy that fired first
>>4344123Well Powder also killed Vi's father, Isha just put a little too much sauce into it.
>>4344125Technically she didn’t hand Vander over. It’s criminal’s mentality, they won’t hand you over to the cops but they will absolutely call you over for a drink and gun you down with your back turned
>>4344124>>hears how hard Cait fought for Vi to be granted a position with the enforcersAnd you see this as a psorive thing instead of how insensitive this was from Caitlyns part?
>>4344130>helping some trencher trash get a real jobVi should be thanking her
>>4344126From what I gathered, the entire thing where their parents died was a protest which became a little rough, but only truly escalated to violence when someone threw a couple of molotovs (so Silco). Vander afterwards went completely apeshit on him, as depicted in that flashback scene in S1.
>>4344112Not at all. Caitlyn wasn't directly responsible for Vi's parents being killed. She wasn't even an enforcer back then kek. Vi being the blood sister of Caitlyn's mother's death makes it way more personal, added to that a layer that Caitlyn didn't shoot Jinx because she trusted Vi.With any logic Caitlyn should've shunned Vi away from her but she was already too attached and too in love to do that. She's instead very conflicted.
>>4344130What's insensitive about it? Like Maddie says Cait argued for Vi's character and how more Enforcers should be like her because she's got a good heart. The only tactless decision she made was to ambush Vi with the badge which Cait recognises and apologises for.
>>4344130Fighting classism in the system for your gf is a positive thing yeah
>>4344136The fact that she knows Vi's parents were killed by enforcers? She shouldn't be forcing the badge on Vi without consulting with her first. She's being either really naive or really insensitive.
>>4344136It would actually be a good thing if more zaunites joined the enforcers.
>>4344139Okay and she apologised for that so?
>>4344141Ok so you agree that she did wrong and she rightfully needed to apologize for it.
>>4344142She didn’t apologise for fighting for Vi to be allowed entrance (which is the romantic part) she apologised for pushing it onto vi without asking her
>>4344135I do agree that Jinx being Vi's sister makes it more personal. Still, the writers obviously wanted to mirror their trauma. Amanda even said in her latest interview that they made enforcers kill Vi's parents on purpose so that Caitvi would have the hardest possible journey to come together. Caitlyn's mother being killed by Jinx is worse because it is more personal but it does kind of make them even in that aspect. They even had a whole conversation in the first episode about it.>I watched them kill my parents. Do you have any idea how that feels?>Yes, I do!The thing is, that they choose to love each other through it and not repeat the mistakes of their cities by continuing the endless cycle of hate and blame.
>>4344139She didn't force it on Vi. The council decided to march on Zaun with Enforcers (against Caitlyn's advice). She knew Vi would want to help, but there was no way for her to do so without either going rogue again (which got them in to a mess the first time) or for Vi to officially join them. So she had it all prepped, but there was no ultimatum. Vi could walk away (and she did). Cait later apologises because of the way she tried to broach the topic the first time, and she doesn't push for it again. It's Vi who offers after Cait explains she doesn't know what else to do.>>4344142You sound like such an incredibly spiteful person, I feel bad for anyone in your life who happens to have a small lapse in judgement.
>>4344120She didn't betray him. She took her grievances to Vander, wasn't satisfied with his answer, and quit on the spot. She takes a gamble on and is loyal to whoever can safeguard Zaun's independence and he showed that he wasn't willing to be that person any longer.
was it ever explained how or why Caitlyn was accepted back as an enforcer? is the generally accepted consensus that the enforcers just kinda let her back in at some point after her mom's funeral for whatever reason? after all, Mel literally calls Caitlyn an officer in the scene directly after the funeral where she's in the councilroom, so I feel like that's the only logical explanation that fits within the timeframe (unless Mel spent the entirely of season one unaware that Caitlyn had lost the title). and I know that Caitlyn gets a letter from the enforcers in the scene where she's sitting with her father, but I'm pretty sure they just sent their condolences along with a patch for the memorial. I don't think it had to do with inviting her back to join the ranks. if she was allowed to join back after the funeral, that prob gave her a couple days to get situated and petition for Vi to join the ranks. but I could be missing something.
>>4344164After uncovering everything with Marcus, Silco and Jinx I just assumed she got back in no problem.
>>4344166yeah, that's true. and that may be where she got the whole "decorated officer" thing from, maybe they gave her a decent rank after the work she did.
>>4344164Piltover's institutions clearly aren't very strong and they operate a lot on just personal power and charisma. That's why you have high-ranking people like Jayce and Cait still going out to fight in person. Letting her back in probably wasn't a big deal.
>>4344168>"decorated officer"I think she made that shit up but no one dared to question her
>>4344222That'd be very funny but her s1 accomplishments would definitely earn it.
>>4344089>made Jinx go from the loose cannon to mostly stable but depressed>took cait's eye out before she ever even became sheriff (not that she ever does become sheriff in the show)>but yeah Vi will totally end up like where she is in de gaem
>>4344270All of the others mentioned can STILL be their champion counterparts, Jinx is Jinx but sad and a little more stable, Cait can still be a sheriff with hextech but making Vi go from Enforcer to a fucking nanny in some orphanage is retarded, she is LITERALLY defined by her fighting spirit you cannot change that, she would never be satisfied just by chilling
>>4344250>sex in prison is ‘reclaiming her trauma’ Then sex with Cait in uniform is, too.
>>4344288Vi would be a great mother
>>4344318>Vi would be a great motherThey should adopt Annie.
As part of her extended apology to her, Caitlyn gives Vi indefinite permission to touch her whenever she gets horny, even while Cait is sleeping.
>>4344324Nah they should adopt Ren
>>4344328>Cait slowly wakes up feeling a ravenous Vi raking her nails down Cait's back while kissing her way to that tight enforcer butt
>>4344288I don't think Riot even knows how to connect the ending of Arcane with the larger League worldbuilding. And if AO is on board still for the next project, I don't think it will align with League. Like Heimer never even built a single turret and he just got vaporized. Even Riot's official wiki talks about Blitzcrank disapproving of Viktor's current goals of glorious evolution. Wtf did the Riot intern mean by current? He gave up in like a day.idk but i think its possible they wont end up like their game selves at all
>>4344385But blitzcrank will still be a robot, Ziggs will still be the bombing yordle, Cait will still be sheriff and Vi will still be enforcer, mind you cait and vi are 1000x more popular and important than those 2. The core of the main characters didn't change, and there is no way in hell Vi would seetle for a life being a housewife when she can make the difference with the person she trust the most. Also she wears a fucking badge in the new card game and in act 3
/u/ best board best mods
>>4344492why is this so cute?
I can't stop thinking about caitvi. I bought all the merch and am making more myself, listening to the music when it isn't stuck in my head, trying to be content with fanart, even reading this thread through the good and bad. It's just not the same. I want more, but it is never enough.
>>4344554Soon.**A long time from now
>>4344554It’s time to Create
>>4344555I mean, Vi dies, soooo yeah.
>>4344554They're perfect. I can't stop thinking about them either.
Oh I never realized the implications of Caitlyn's reaction here. She didn't know Jinx was Vi's sister and yet her reaction to seeing Vi with Jinx is very hostile. Jealous? Likely, she already liked Vi quite a lot here.
>>4342886
>>4343643
>>4344585Does Vi's reaction imply Maddie threw her chance at a threesome away for Ambessa?
>>4344449You're kind of missing the point here
>>4344609Yes.
>>4344578She what now?
Piltover enforcer is just a profession that can be changed easily Jayce didn't end up as the mayor of piltover either
>>4344609After Cait starts to get intimate with Vi she will be jealous asf, both her and Cait dont like sharing
>>4344638What, you expect them to change her title from Vi the Piltover enforcer to Vi the orphanage headmistress?
>>4344650Why are you so salty about this? She may as well be Vi the protector of Zaun or whatever.
>>4344652But she's not that, you'd have to rewrite and rerecord a shitton of her lines and other champions lines to completely rewrite her character into being what you want, a female ekko
>>4344653What do you think will happen to league Jayce then? He's "dead" in the Arcane timeline which the creators have now stated is the main canon.
>>4344653Why do you care about this so much? It's not like they're re-recording Jayce and Viktor's lines to account for the fact that they're now in yaoi prog album cover heaven.
>>4344655Jayce from the show fit the "man of tomorrow" he is in league. He's the hero of Piltover who saved the city and invented hextech before that. In broad strokes nothing has changed.>>4344656They actually are removing some of Viktor's lines and replacing them with new lines to fit into the new canon. I only care because it's clear some of you legit don't even like Vi's character, you like Ekko and want Vi to be Ekko.
>>4344652Ekko doesn't give a shit about Zaun as much as you like her to protect it. She wore the badge without a conflict in the final battle, if Zaunites and Topsiders work together in law-enforcement (which in LoR there are ALOT of Zaunites working in Cait/Vi squad) i genuine dont see how Vi wouldn't want to join. She's not Ekko, she's not a freedom fighter
>>4344660Vi*** fuck i misstyped
>>4344658You can keep being in denial about this.I don't even care if she stays as an enforcer but I can see it another way also, and since she isn't one at the end of Arcane why not?>>4344660Oh come on, Vi is still from the undercity and if there's anything Arcane shows you is that she's an important asset by Caitlyn's side to show her the ways of the undercity. You don't give Vi enough credit and completely ignore that she was imprisoned for 7 years.
>>4344663Im not saying that Vi wont help her about the undercity, im saying that she isn't a ideological activist like Ekko,Silco or Sevika, she cares much more about her relationships than a cause. You say she isn't one at the end of arcane but all of the marketing stuff about the card game features her on piltovers side with a badge on her waist and mind you that the act 3 model of Vi is called: Champion Vi
>>4344665Where did I say that she's an ideological activist anon? Jesus christ you don't know how to read do you. I'm literally saying that idc if she ends up as an enforcer and if that's her endgame then whatever, but I can also see it going another way in the way Jinx, Jayce, Viktor, Caitlyn, Heimerdinger's and Singed's canon has been changed too.
I wake up every day grateful that I don't give a single shit about Arcane's impact on League of Legends.
>>4344675
>>4344673Goof 4 u
>>4344675>>4344676Okay anon I'm gonna need more of these.
>>4344663Because it goes against her entire character. Vi does not give a shit about Zaun independence no matter how much you think she should.
I can't see either Vi or Caitlyn being Piltie partisans post-series. The ending implies the cities are attempting reconciliation, hence Sevika's presence in the council. Vi and Caitlyn would want to support that, not advertise themselves as Piltover's Finest.
>>4344687Except it's still her hometown.you make Vi sound like a total asshole who doesn't give a shit about her own people just because she found herself a rich piltie girlfriend
>>4344689Well Arcane is probably gonna get the SoL treatment so it doesn't matter in the end.
>>4344689This. I don't know why people are so blind to this? She and caitlyn are literally the representation of both Zaun and Piltover no matter how much you want to yap about how Vi doesn't give a shit about Zaun.
>>4344691Sure, she would want to help fight crime in Zaun and improve lives that way. Fighting against the government for independence? Nope
>>4344689Ekko and jinx can call themselves Zaun royalty but Cait and Vi can’t call themselves piltover’s finest? They’re piltover’s finest because they represent the good in piltover
>>4344696Vi calling herself Piltover is a betrayal of where she's from. They made her backstory too tragic and her misfortunes too linked to Piltover's doing for this to make any sense.
>>4344695>fighting criminals >a good thingSure cause Piltover and the enforcers don't have a history of unjustly imprisoning innocents INCLUDING VI HERSELF
>>4344700You realize that's their Nickname BECAUSE Vi lives with Cait in piltover right? Caitlyn and Vi never called themselves "Piltovers Finest", thats a nickname given to them..>>4344689No one is saying that Vi and Caitlyn will become assholes and just work on piltover, heck MOST of their patrols and cases that they investigate are directly linked with Zaun and they even go out of their juristiction just to investigate them, like Urgot for example which Vi went as a undercover Cop because she's the one with undercity info
>>4344702You have little faith in Vi and Cait
>>4344700You’re allowed to move from where you’re born, plus she’s literally from Piltover it’s the same city, Zaun is just the slums of piltover. You’re allowed to be successful and move away from the slums without needing a guilt complex. Also most of her misfortunes are literally due to Silco lol.
>>4344702The entire point is reforming it to make it better. And please don’t act like the chem barons are good guys. People like you legit belief the Mexican police is evil abd the drug cartels are good guys.
>>4344702do you even know what kind of criminals they fight? Urgot,Renata they are NOT unjustly accused bro, enforcers also dont have a history of zaunites becoming part of their team which is what will happen in the future. CaitVi working as law enforcers literally never went after innocents, thats one of the fucking reasons Vi is so valuable, she understands the other side better than anyone
>>4344707I just realized they'd have the most obnoxious Northern Ireland style controversies about what to call places. Does Piltover refer to the entire city, is it appropriate to use Zaun at all, someone trying to call it Piltover-Zaun...
Vifags just want Vi to dump Caitlyn and go live in Zaun with a Zaunite freedom fighter girlfriend kek
>>4344711Yup, they’re even trying to popularise shipping her with the black girl.
>>4344716Why with a dead girl?Also my own 2 cents:CaitVi is a huge power imbalance ship but I can see it working out somehow. Was reading a post S2 fanfiction where it all made sense.
>>4344708Silco was a better person than the council yeah.
>>4344724not even Vi believes this holy fuck, she pictures him as the antichrist in s1
>>4344724Who’s a little online wannabe revolutionary? You are, yes you are
>>4344725Vi has a personal vendetta against him. Silco was good for Zaun, almost got them their indepence even.
>>4344732Life was never worse than under Silco. He’s your classic revolutionary who promises the moon while actively making your lives shit.
>>4344732>zaun was good>shimmer addicts dying on the street>no perspective on getting better>only gaining independanceRight bro... Silco was good
>>4344735To achieve a greater good you must be willing to make some sacrifices.
>>4344732>Silco was good for Zaunlmao, please go back to shitposting on /tv/, american
>>4344739this is exactly opposite of Vi, hence why she will never be a firelight revolucionary like you faggots want
>>4344738See>>4344742
>>4344739And the greater good would be a literal maffia state but with Silco’s goons replacing the enforcers
>>4344749It was the lesser of 2 evils instead of Vander's Zaun licking the boots of enforcers and achieving nothing. At least with zaunites in power the people would have had voices.
>>4344751Oh yes I’m sure silco and the chembarons were just jumping at the seams to set up a democratic parlement with full human rights. Moron. Anyone who dared to be against Silco would be eliminated, as shown in the show.
>>4344751>shithole that's achieving nothing>somehow even worse shithole that's still achieving nothing>Yes I'll take the second one please!
Everyone arguing about Silco needs to read this before they can even begin to express an opinion:https://fswg.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/benjamin-critique-of-violence-new-translation.pdfLearn the difference between divine and mythic violence and the implications of each
>>4344806>Vi hate-fucking CaitIts canon right?
Kinda hilarious how people are trying to make Vi some sort of Zaun protector when (as far as she knows) everyone she gave a shit about from that place are dead. The most you can expect is that she'll become a protector of the peace between both cities, because that's what Vander and Jinx died for.
>>4344810Rewatch that scene. Vi is an eager puppy who just wants to make Caitlyn feel good.
>>4344810That woman is love starved and has the heart of a puppy she would never(unless cait asks for it).
>>4344724Go back to Demacia, Jinx
>>4344804Absolutely disgusting
>>4344821Ekko? Babette?
>>4344806Why would you ever do futa when hexstraps exist?
>>4344860I never got the feeling that Vi cared that much about those two. Ekko especially felt like she was friendly with him because he was Powder's friend.
>>4344879The hug in s1?
>>4344879That's her little brother right there
>>4344879Ekko was friends with the whole gang.
>>4344879I agree, at the end of season 2 she definitely cares more about Cait than she cares about anyone left in Zaun
>>4344903That's hardly an argument, Caitlyn is her lover so of course she'll care about her the most. But saying that she doesn't give a shit about Ekko is simply untrue.
>>4344905I think she likes him, I don’t think she thinks of him as family though, just a neighbourhood kid she hung out with. She didn’t seem especially bothered by his disappearance in act 2
>>4344908You can hardly use s2 as evidence for shit. Caitlyn doesn't think about Jayce once after both his disappearances.
>>4344908Did Vi even know about his disappearance?
>>4344918I think she just assumed he died in the bridge fight against Jinx
lc orcashttps://x.com/hahyrningr/status/1644776914463125505
>>4344950>these are the only 2 whales with League namesThat's fucking funny
>>4344641I don't think so. Vi's character was discribed by Riot as 'bratty'. So Vi is probably a non-serious flirt who loves Caitlyn's possiveness. She also probably has a complex of feeling like a loser and failure that she views Caitlyn's jealousy as being prized and coveted. Caitlyn is probably scared to death of losing Vi over all. Introduce meth to them and they'll be every other trailer park trash romance.
>>4345010Perfection, so glad Cait finally has someone who can take control and make her feel good
>>4345012I bet Maddie's strap game was weak as hell.
What are y'alls favorite caitvi moments? Mine's their first meeting, can feel that sexual chemistry right off the batch
>>4345012>glad Cait finally has someone who can take control and make her feel goodDa fuck? Caitlyn gets her clit sucked on the regular and has always been controlled by others her whole life, including Ambessa. Vi is always the one taking care of people and never allowed herself any pleasure. Why do you freaks keep trying to keep her and Vi in the exact same oppressive positions that would make the relationship toxic af?
>>4345010Cait = Cake
>>4345032Bed scene face touching will always be my no.1 but the jail scene refuses to let go of my brain.
>>4345032Their every interaction is replaying in my visual cortex like it were my life flashing before my eyes.
>>4345032I loved when they reunited after Cassandra's funeral.
>>4345032When Cait wore her greatcoat with nothing under it to tease her girlfriend.
>>4345114It's all fun and games until Vi spots some ginger hair on the cape.
>>4345037You need to step away from the internet if you can't recognise that people can enjoy power dynamics in bed without enforcing some kind of 'role' on each other outside it.
>>4345235Yeah, that's when she makes Cait come twice as hard as normal.
Yeesh, Vi fucked Cait till she clawed her tattoos off. That’s a league above toe curling.
>>4345271
>>4345272I love that art, Cait looks so vulnerable and Vi is so sweet with her
>>4345370why is this so hot?
>>4345384Kiramelons.
>>4345384They look like they're in love and enjoying what they're doing.
>>4344721>Was reading a post S2 fanfiction where it all made senselink?
I was reading about something and im actually confused: Did Vi forgive Caitlyn before entering the cell?
>>4345398>Did Vi forgive Caitlyn before entering the cell?depends on what you mean. For hitting her? yeah, probably. for gassing Zaun? I don't think Vi is holding that over her since she knows she was part of it. for putting Jinx in a cell? she was probably conflicted once Jinx ditched her until Caitlyn revealed everything.
>>4345398I don't think Vi held anything pre-act 2 against her in the first place. All she confronts her about is Ambessa but she immediately realizes Cait has already been beating herself up over it.That said she didn't trust Cait enough to share the full Vander plan with her and that's only deserved. Plus of course she will choose her family over Cait.
>>4345409>All she confronts her about is Ambessa but she immediately realizes Cait has already been beating herself up over it.I'm glad other people could pick up on this. I was reading a post S2 fic the other night and the author clearly felt like Cait had to atone over and over again for that brief commander arc since the author felt like there were no regrets shown over anything in the show. Characters constantly mentioning how she was "repaying for her crimes" and that kind of stuff. Not only that but they turned Cait in to some meek loser who just kept beating herself up over it. Really didn't feel like her character at all. Sorry for ranting about it here but if it's anything I hate it's people projecting their own morality on to fictional characters and making them behave out of character as a result just to satisfy some personal gripe the author has.
>>4345411No it's fine I agree, I've been dropping fics the moment they make her apologize lmao. Part of what I liked so much about Cait's writing this season is how she's the type to suck it all up and just get things done. She's been actions over words since s1 so seeing how it manifests now she has real life experience and blood on her hands is really good. I like her much more as a woman who stands tall and takes the burden than someone who grovels or breaks down or whatever people wanted out of her.Also something that makes me feel insane is the idea of a redemption arc for her in the first place. She literally rejects the idea of redemption for herself? That's the point? And then she takes responsibility via Ambessa and Sevika showing she's on the right path? Don't think I was watching the same show as these people.
>>4345414Yeah I feel exactly the same way. I thought the way she carefully placated Ambessa while doing what she could to minimise the damage caused by the heightened tensions and enforcer presence was admirable. She knew Ambessa was using her, and she tried to make the best of that situation while also fighting her own demons demanding revenge on Jinx. I connected the most with Cait and her story and even if I think they needed to let some scenes breathe a bit more with extra flavour I still thoroughly enjoyed seeing how she somehow managed to keep it all together until the end.Cait has the weight of her family legacy, Piltover, Zaun, the Council, Ambessa and her Noxians, as well as the situation with Jinx and Vi all weighing on her shoulders and she still doesn't crack.
>>4345411I was starting to read a fic where the author describes herself as a caitlyn apologist who also thinks it doesn't actually make sense for her to remain a cop and its gone in such a weird direction
>>4345417People like that probably believe you can’t write about cops trying to be good people because that’d be copaganda
>>4345416Completely agree there too. I appreciated Jinx most s1 but where s2 took Cait stole the show for me. Something else that gets overlooked is how Cait has been a misfit her whole life but still believing that what she wanted to do was right, only for her actions to lead to her mother's death. Had she just been what her mother wanted her to from the start she'd still be alive. Of course it makes sense for her to overcompensate in rejecting her old self and wanting to do things the "proper" way. That's a heavy thing to carry.
>>4345416>I feel exactly the same way.>>4345440>Completely agree there tooNow kiss.
>>4344950
Can anyone else imagen how much more epic this show would have been if they had allowed for a two hour ending and an R or MA rating.
>>4345397https://archiveofourown.org/works/60969901
>>4345416>She knew Ambessa was using her, and she tried to make the best of that situationI swear so many people seem to have erased the "the blade cuts both ways" conversation from their minds or missed it entirely. Some takes I've seen here and there make Caitlyn look like a brutal dictator who ate Zaunite children for breakfast and I was like "... but she didn't even want to arrest people unlawfully??"I think it's likely that some enforcers and noxians were too enthusiastic with violence of their own accord though (like Rictus), which sure wouldn't have made the situation any better.
>>4345531I think Caitlyn's only mistake was being so naive as to think that an occupation by an army that's known for being brutal was going to go peacefully. Her naivety also shows in seeing enforcers as a bunch of good guys who're totally not discriminating undercity people.But I think she came out of this experience more knowledgeable and hardened, and with better tools to reform the enforcers towards being something better.
I saw some other takes online that Caitlyn let's go of her anger for Jinx because of Vi, but I think that's wrong. Caitlyn was hating herself for what she became and for all the hurt she was causing, and lost sight of what she was really shooting for.I think the only thing she really did for Vi's sake was allowing Jinx to go free, and letting Vi get away wit her. Taking the risk of never seeing Vi again, and perhaps leading to Jinx committing even more crimes. But she trusted Vi's judgment so much.
>>4345532That's a good take. I also think she underestimated how strongly Zaunites would rebel against that occupation.>with better tools to reform the enforcers towards being something betterI really hope we get to see that storyline someday, whatever the medium they choose to tell it.
>>4345541As Singed said, her youth betrayed her. Nonetheless I think Caitlyn was a delight in S2. Far more than I could've hoped for. Hope we see more of Caitlyn and Vi's shenanigans being Piltover's Finests in the far future but my hopes are set low.
I wish we'd get more fics of Cait and Vi working together as enforcers.
I dont think i have seen a cait&jinx ship so far. The hatefucking would be intense.
>>4345773Oh but there is
>>4345773It's a thing, definitely the smallest ship in the cait/vi/jinx triangle though
>>4345773Jinx has seen cait in her birthday suit before Vi did. And probably had to dress her too after she knocked her out, or did she make her put on clothes before? that part is not clear.
>>4345773it's kino
>>4345971Unf, yes please
>>4345971beautiful, but why is Vi so tall here?
>>4346018They made her tall for the sex scene too
>>4346021Vi was feeling tall in that moment, so it was reflected in the animation.
Thought this was cute so I printed a little bookmark someone made. I'd love a little Caitlyn one to pair with this but I couldn't find the original art to see if they ever made matching art for her.
>>4346165https://x.com/AG_Nonsuch/status/1491589331424735233they did :)
>>4346165You’d prob get better results if it were vectorized?
>>4346183These are adorable together. I just received some blue filament specifically to use on Caitlyn prints so this will be a perfect way to test it. I am going to start figuring out how to make this right away.>>4346201The picture is a closeup of a 100mm object so holding it at a normal distance doesn't reveal all the little surface errors. Someone else converted that art using hueforge which turns it into a 3d printable object that splits each color into separate layers, which is why it looks chunky. I don't know of a way to get flat vector 3d printed pieces without manually doing everything in blender which is a nightmare. Pic has some coasters someone designed which I'm planning on making soon when I get a gold filament. I am still teaching myself, so for now I'm just relying on work other people have already made for the most part. Essentially endless free custom Arcane merch is a very good motivator though.
Yes dear?
>>4346469
>>4346471ngl, would if i could. But Cant.So i wont.
Birthday girl
>>4346574Adorable
>>4346165Figured out how to make the Caitlyn art to match the shape and size of Vi's and it turned out better than I expected for my first try. They're so cute. Can't wait to learn how to keep finer details so I can do the caitvi scenes justice.
>>4346726Did you use Waifu2x?
>>4346727I tried upscaling but I didn't see any difference in the 3d mesh it was generating. Keeping the color accurate to the source (right) seems to be the bigger issue since the projected output (middle) had more red show through the white layers than the actual print (left). Luckily didn't take away any of the charm from a simple design like this and it still makes me smile seeing them leaning against each other next to some other yuri on my shelf. I'll start a different caitvi project every day to learn more.
>>4346740>>4346726That's very cute, makes me want to get some as well
so why some people think Caitlyn was a facist? im genuine asking
>>4346884They didn't understand the show they watched.
>>4346887The chemical warefare and taking away the rights of zaunites are okay for you as long as these crimes are done by a hot girl? Stop posting, Vi,
>>4346888You didn't understand the show you watched either btw.
>>4346889Enlighten us then.
>>4346889>>4346891I accept your silence as admitting you dont know what the fuck your talking about.
>>4346884Martial law = fascism in their minds. Which means they never experienced actual fascism.
>>4346884Xitter moralfags armchair communists screech like monkeys as if they have the high moral ground. Just ignore
>>4346884They're under the belief that escalating violence against what they perceive to be the 'privileged' should never be met with equal force by said people because that constitutes oppression, it's unfair etc. It's basically just a very childish and surface level take that looks good on a newspaper headline but doesn't hold up to scrutiny if you press them over it for longer than a few minutes. That's why they never want to genuinely talk about it and are happy to just dismiss you as a nazi or any other slur they can come up with at the time that suggests they're morally correct in their beliefs.
>>4346909No you don't understand, CAITLYN KILLED BILLIONS
>>4346912Oh she definitely has, just not in the way those people think
>>4346884>>4346903Yes, people sometimes use words more broadly than their dictionary definitions. You are very smart.
>>4346912Genocidal fascist dictator y'all. There's barely anyone left in Zaun after her rule.
>>4346913This one's really good. Is it an AU where they met as kids?
>>4346888of course not.they're ok if they're done by a hot GAY girl. important distinction.
I wonder how often they do this when apart from each other.
>>4346925Please fuck off back to xitter
>>4346888>taking away zaunites rights>chemical warfaredid i miss a scene? cause i genuine thought that she only used the grey once and it was on targeted locations and never saw taking away zaunites rights
>>4346956Yup, these retards are obsessed with the equivalence of tear gas and some military checkpoints.
>>4346956Their pumping poison through their air filtration system. You can only be so accurate with a system like that.As for their rights, there were lines she didn't cross, but she still let the Noxians in. In episode four, they attack a peaceful protest and arrest everyone.
>>4346964>Their pumping poison through their air filtration system. You can only be so accurate with a system like that.they did it once in ep. 3 and then it isn't used anymore> but she still let the Noxians in. In episode four, they attack a peaceful protest and arrest everyone.tell me how would she say no to ambessa? ambessa literally can brute force into Zaun
>>4346973>tell me how would she say no to ambessa?She could have refused to collaborate with them from the start. They didn't know about Singed's science project until Caitlyn let them establish themselves. They wouldn't have just invaded.It's understandable that she did what she did, but she could have chosen otherwise. It's fine, it makes her more interesting as a character.
>>4347006I choose to believe this is how Cait spent most of her nights and only brought Maddie in whenever the pillow and fingers couldnt cut it
Was it strictly necessary for Caitlyn to take away Jinx's shoe privileges in her private prison, or was that something she did for herself?
>new Vi tft skin>wears Enforcer jacket>wears Enforcer badgei think she's gonna become a nanny on Zaun
>>4346998>this kills the cait.
I printed this design someone made today and it looks amazing, really makes me excited at what can be accomplished with more time and effort. It is only about 20cm wide so holding it at arms length makes the little imperfections vanish. I think there is probably a way to get a better surface finish though so that is what I'll look into next. The 3d effect of the print makes some of the details really striking in a way that the 2d art doesn't have, although the 2d art is incredible in its own right.
>>4347093This is the source.
>>4347060God she looks good, really cool. But yeah shame they didn’t commission anon we could have had Vi pushing a stroller
>>4347015They would have just used Salo then to get to power
How did you react to the rifle punch from episode 3?
>>4347191I felt bad for Vi and Cait, they both had their reasons for what happened. My only actual gripe with them in S2 was Maddie. But that was Amanda's brainchild to make things 'interesting' whatever the fuck that means.
>>4347191Hated it and thought it meant they were doomed. Glad it didn't but I still hate it. My only complaint about how their relationship went in s2.
>>4347191If you compared me to my mother's murderer I would probably react the same way so idk I understood Cait here
>>4347191I hated it. And I hated Caitlyn for a while after this, but the hatred simmered down after she went to lengths to apologize to Vi in her own ways.Now I mainly blame Amanda for allowing Caitlyn to use Vi's trauma with enforcers and physical abuse against her.
>>4346956>>4346909The reason Fascist Cait doesn't work is because fortiche doesn't have the balls to show what a realistic reaction from Piltover would be like. Jinx directly attacked their ruling class, the other oligarchs should be furious and demanding extreme measures from Caitlyn. The little SWAT team she assembled wouldn't come close to sating the oligarchs demand for bloodshed.
>>4347202Caitlyn even started to disagree and distrust ambessa imediatly after ep. 3, the martial law scene was so fucking pointless...
>>4347203It was funny how they declared martial law, but Caitlyn still refused to even arrest people unless they had cause. Tamest 'dictator' in history
>>4347191In retrospect it just feels like its there for shock value and a flimsy parallel with Vi hitting Powder in S1E3. No consequences, never addressed, might as well have not happened.
>>4347203>>4347205Cait's a smart and decent person. It's not surprising she'd come off her bloodlust pretty soon and start wondering what the Noxians actually want.>Caitlyn still refused to even arrest people unless they had causeZangief's leading Enforcers and having them cart people off to Stillwater for attending a peaceful protest.>>4347207>No consequences, never addressedGet better at watching cartoons.
>>4347207It's addressed in their sex scene when Cait tenderly strokes her fingers over that area and looks like she's about to cry, but Vi drags her arm away and goes right back to kissing her. That's them going through the apology and acceptance phase without words.
>>4347209>Zangief's leading Enforcers and having them cart people off to Stillwater for attending a peaceful protest.Yeah but she is clearly against it
>>4347191cait would not have missed the shot, Vi knows this, but she still stopped cait, she did not want jinx to die.
>>4347213It's still something she authorized or at least allowed to happen.
>>4347207But it is addressed. Caitlyn hovers over the spot where she hit her but Vi doesn't care about that anymore. Vi is a true MVP.
>>4347215She didn't authorize, there was literally nothing she could do at the time
>>4347215I find Caitlyn's intentions really hard to follow. She's not a dumb person in the slightest, and she was fully aware of the violence, tortures and arrests without cause done by Noxian soldiers and yet she allowed it to go on for months. She's really not as innocent as she's made out to be by certain caitfags
>>4347222She must have authorized Noxians entering Zaun, commanding Enforcers and giving them authority to arrest people. She isn't surprised about Zaunian prisoners in Stillwater.>>4347223I don't think it's that surprising. She's grieving her mom, wants revenge on Jinx, feels betrayed by Vi and thinks Piltover's about to be attacked by Zaunian super predators, so she accepts Ambessa's help. By the time things calm down, politely asking them to leave is no longer an option.
>>4347223yeah, but she's just doing it to Zaunites. they probably got more fresh air on the way to the prison than they got in their whole life. trenchers should be thanking her.
>>4347223Caitlyn DOES believe in law and order. Piltover just lost half their government and Zaun are uprising and she feels the weight of her family legacy and a responsibility to settle things. She is still a cop. A week with Vi in the undercity isn't going to rewrite all her beliefs in the system up to now.Simultaneously, she believes violence and unjust retaliation is wrong. Once she lets Ambessa in she does not have the means to get her out again and recognizes that forcing her out would bring on her wrath. She's clearly been trying to push back on her and it hasn't worked.
>>4347223She doesn't agree with almost everything ambessa's doing however after ep. 3 she fucked it up already, giving Noxians and Ambessa power was the worst mistake she did
>>4347228What a retarded way of thinking. I bet you also think America went to Iraq to free the poor people from their suffering.
>>4347223She's not dumb but she feels trapped. Who is she meant to turn to when the Council is out for full scale war and Ambessa is clearly after the same, just through Caitlyn because she's easier for her to control given the respect she holds in Piltover. Her options are to continue as she is, placate the council and Ambessa as best she can (with some innocents caught in the mix) or just give up her powers and let them do what they want, which is a full on war with Zaun that'd just wipe them off the map instead.
>>4347227Maddie says to Caitlyn that she can call off the invasion and yet she refuses. It was probably not the first time Maddie pushed her towards doing this (as a test, mind you)
>>4347232>>4347234Not that I mind, but you do know you can't post characters on their own here, right?
>>4347240>Images must not contain men, and should ideally be of two or more women. The occasional solo image is allowed as long as it's relevant to the topic, but solo image dumps should be posted on /e/.
>>4347060>NOOO BUT WERE IS THE ZAUN CARETAKER ARCIts so funny people actually believed that
>>4347237Sure, she can tell Ambessa to go home, but by that point Cait suspects Ambessa isn't just doing her a solid. If she told Ambessa to go and she refused, the situation would go from a joint anti-terror task force to an occupation, or Ambessa would just get rid of her and install a puppet ruler.
>>4347232The creators putting all the blame on Ambessa for Caitlyn's dictator arc was their worst mistake. They couldn't allow Caitlyn to go too dark because how can she end up with Vi if that happened. As much as I love caitvi, I think this was also a mistake. Then again all of S2 was rushed.
>>4347237Maddie saying she can doesn't make it true. Caitlyn knows how ingrained Ambessa has become and that she can't just push her out.
>>4347245Caitlyn going "too dark" was never going to happen because she is simply not that kind of person and that's not the story Arcane is telling. The whole point of Ambessa in regards to Caitlyn is a a) a mother figure manipulating her during her moment of weakness in the wake of her loss and b) a foil to contrast their decision making. Ambessa pushing Mel away is contrast to Caitlyn pushing Vi away. Ambessa was weakened by Mel's love and judgement of her and couldn't take it and Caitlyn has to not repeat that mistake if she wants to move on.Like yeah, if you wanted a political intrigue story it's a let down, but Arcane is repeatedly telling you its core is about love and the good and bad it drives people to do.
>>4346916And doing so is deluting the meaning. Just like calling everyone you don't like a socialist or nazi. Let's conflate actual mass murderers with people who were mean to you on the internet. Great idea. What could possibly go wrong?
>>4347227>>4347228>>4347231>>4347232>>4347234Well got lots of insightful answers. I love Caitlyn don't get me wrong but I prefer more nuanced interpretations than just "she did nothing wrong" or "she's literally Hitler incarnate"
>>4347015>Noxians would neverI'm sure that's a statement that ages like milk in universe pretty frequently.
>>4347257I enjoy delving in to the nuance too. I think ultimately it just comes down to the question of what was the alternative for Caitlyn? Piltover demanded blood and war, Ambessa wanted the same (for personal gain), Zaun was itching to rebel and declare independence and refused to give up Jinx or stop their shimmer production. I understand the "she did nothing wrong" more than the opposite. Since ultimately even if she had done nothing at all or just given it all up, people would argue she was responsible for turning a bad situation worse since there'd be no one left to hold back the council.
This thread is severely lacking in porn
>>4347259The alternative was not to accept Ambessa's mantle. Salo wouldve done the same job and actually followed through with demolishing Zaun.
>>4347262Exactly, and you don't think Caitlyn would've had to shoulder the blame for that? The community definitely would've scapegoated her for not stepping up when she had the chance.
Do you think that Maddie was imagining Ambessa while having sex with Caitlyn?
After many rewatches of the sex scene without the music I've reached the conclusion that Caitlyn does most of the moaning in that scene.
>>4347266Seems accurate, the korean version had no music at all and they definitely ramped up their moans in it too. https://x.com/c4ptainlynn/status/1868752303119122829
So now that we know Vi will prob end up as an enforcer with Cait... wtf will be their enemy? Urgot seems nice no?
>>4347257That's fine and I agree. I think the show does it's part in showing you that circumstances being what they are Caitlyn isn't in the wrong for making a lot of the decisions she does, but at the same time she isn't pushing back on them to the extent she would in her right mind because she still is clouded by grief and revenge. Just because she doesn't take malicious actions herself doesn't mean she isn't part of what allowed everything to happen, and she herself sees the sin in that.
>>4347060Is this a greying Vi? Are we getting middle aged Caitvi kino??
>>4347270I would fucking kill for seeing them getting older together
>>4347270I think that's something they just carried over from her current in-game model. this either means that vi has always been granny from the very start (in the game's timeline at least) or the lighter strands have nothing to do with her age. maybe it's stress-induced graying? or someone just needs to take the box dyes away from her for good this time.
>>4347267Imagine being at the recording session.
>>4347271>>4347270im gonna guess you dont play the game. multiple units got recolored this set. Zyra, Sett, Vi, Rell, etc.
>>4347268you know riot was sending out in-game surveys about whether or not people liked season 2's ending and what their thoughts were. maybe it'll get the sol treatments and become only semi-canoni already sent them my answer
>>4347403>im gonna guess you dont play the gameAnon most Arcane fans don't even touch this stuff.
>>4347410ok? so they miss out on context and misinterpret stuff ig? idk what you want from me.
>>4347403that image isn't her recolor, it's a unit skin from fight for the golden spatula.https://x.com/Spideraxe30/status/1870095065864929369
>>4347488What does she want a golden spatula for? Is she going to make pancakes for Cait and adorable Zaunite orphans?
>>4347497>Orphanage's Finest :)
I think i might be retarded but Maddie's first line to Vi, is she lying about what caitlyn said or she's telling the truth?
>>4347501Probably telling the truth. If it was a lie, all Vi needs to do is say something to Cait about it and she'd be exposed as a liar and manipulator.
>>4347501What makes you think she might have lied? Just thinking about it logically it makes sense. Cait knows Vi will inevitably want to help, but she doesn't want her doing any more rogue missions. So she has everything prepared to ensure Vi can accompany them officially.
>>4347501also after hearing Cait say this Ambessa prob got her eyes set on Vi
>>4347413>so they miss out on context and misinterpret stuff ig?Where do you think the whole 'Zaun mom' thing came from?
>>4347497To spank Cait with
>>4347501The truth and I'm surprised no one has drawn this yet. The thought it Caitlyn fighting so hard for her crush to be accepted amongst the enforcers is fucking adorable. Notice how Caitlyn commits forgery, threatens to withdraw her family's funding and commits police corruption all for Vi.
>>4347501She wasn't lying about what Caitlyn said but was dishonest about how she viewed Vi's actions when speaking with her. She was assigned to oversee Caitlyn as a potential candidate (for Ambessa to use and exert her influence over the council) and was looking for a way in from the moment she arrived. Caitlyn let her guard down talking about Vi which revealed her weakness. She ingratiated herself to Vi in order to make her think she's a harmless fangirl. She started working her way into their inner circle through those interactions.
>>4347524Imagine Ambessa's face when she realized that her spy Maddie shared some physical resemblance to Vi.
The scene with Ambessa and Vi in the tent makes more sense when we consider that Maddie must have spilled all the beans about Caitlyns relationship with Vi to her. Perhaps Caitlyn did talk a lot about Vi to Maddie.Ambessa viewing Vi as a competent and tactician combatant must've also had something to do with Vi joining the elite squad, Maddie was ~watching~
>>4347525>ugh why didn't I bring over any white butches? fuck it, the ginger will do.
>>4347524I like that insight. I thought a little about Maddie's role in the scheme and with hindsight she does seem very manipulative despite her kind demeanour. Really wanted to see Vi give her a beating at the end for numerous reasons.
>>4347586What I love about Vi is that she was suspicious as fuck and rude towards Maddie. I'm sure it wasn't just because she was an enforcer.
>>4347594When you grow up as a girl in the slums you probably develop a sixth sense when it comes to people who are trying to use you.
>>4347586>>4347594They made her suspicious the moment she was introduced. I thought something was up when she was introduced, but she didn't show any outward betrayals until hindsight revealed that they were all hidden intentions. Think back on all the enforcers we met in this series. She wore a mask of feigned naivety and kindness, but no enforcers in the show managed to outrun the jaded outlook on life inherent to people in their position.
>>4347529>Perhaps Caitlyn did talk a lot about Vi to MaddieI kinda feel like Caitlyn wouldn't just spill her heart to a new girl like that, especially since her body language in their love scenes implies she isn't that into Maddie.>>4347586>Really wanted to see Vi give her a beating at the end for numerous reasons.Nah, that's insecure shit. Vi's cool enough to know she defeated Maddie when Caitlyn freed her mom's killer for her.
>>4347610I don't think it's insecure to come to the rescue of your partner when they're about to be executed.
>>4347610Yeah Caitlyn wouldn't have to specifically go out of her way to say anything, yet her body language would understandably betray her to someone probing for weaknesses. Tensing up when someone directly mentions Vi, softening when someone refers to something that reminds her about her, those subtle mannerisms would be all it takes for master manipulators to intuit the rest.
>>4347613It wouldn't in real life, of course, but this is fiction. Who fights and defeats who is based on thematic considerations. If Amanda and co. felt the need to have Vi kill Cait's other partner, I'd have thought less of them.>>4347617Yeah, this kind of stuff.
>>4347613Hell it would have been a lot cooler than losing to a werewolf and then needing to be rescued from that werewolf
>>4347621>If Amanda and co. felt the need to have Vi kill Cait's other partner, I'd have thought less of them.Yeah I guess it could come across that way, I still wanted more of Cait and Vi fighting together.
>>4347629didn't Linke said they cut some stuff so they can develop in later products? With the new tft stuff they are kinda pushing into the idea of enforcer Vi so we will see piltover's finest in action
>>4347631Assuming they continue the direct canon from Arcane yeah. Cait's gotta figure out how to deal with her lost eye
>>4347631I would post picture for ants pic but that would get me banned.
>>4347631Why the fuck you showing Twitter screencaps instead of just the art
I worked on editing an image properly this time so of course I'm picking this scene first. It looks incredible and I'm ecstatic at all the caitvi possibilities that stand before me now. I put a border on it so it has a raised frame and it looks so damn good. The way the light hits the raised white details makes Vi's gaze feel extra piercing and her arm stands out like she's really slamming Caitlyn to the wall. I'm making a few variations and will be printing them all day so I'm going to have a ton of these everywhere I look soon.
>>4347649That looks really nice anon, and it's definitely a good scene to start with
Thinking about caitvi 24/7
>>4347651I've spent the past week reading fics about them every night. Trying to distract myself from knowing we wont see them again in Arcane
>>4347653Same, I haven't had such a strong hyperfixation since ages. They alread had me captured since S1 but in the long wait for S2 it had kind of lessened.
Sorry about posting solo fanart ,but this one was too beautiful to pass on. Just imagine that she's waiting for Vi to join her
>>4347713Would love to see Mel in that too
>>4347651I only got into Arcane 2 months ago and now I'm writing fic for the first time in years. This is terrible.
If I didn't have christmas stuff to do I'd never be able to resist the pull of watching Arcane again.
>>4347649I spent way too long trying to make the transparency perfect but I think the frame gives it more impact anyway. They're both so much fun to look at though so it was worth it. Now to start work on the next one.
