Summary
The image flashes back from Vi’s memory — Caitlyn lying unconscious on the hospital bed, her head half wrapped with thick bandages, hair still crusted with blood. The tubes in her arms, the smell of disinfectant, the muffled intelligible voices in the background, Vi aching and exhausted sitting by her shoulder to watch her breathe for hours.
Healing is a slow process, inside and out.

Summary
She is the one who changes the bandages on Caitlyn for the time she is unconscious.
She is the one who props Caitlyn up, who gently unwraps the dirty bandages around her head, her eye– the one who carefully wipes the bruised, swollen skin. She can just barely see the stitches through her eyelids, is careful to not touch it directly. She is the one who gently grazes the bottom of the scar through her eye, the one who wraps a fresh bandage around the still-healing eye.
All the while, she softly sings under her breath, “Dear friend, across the river, my hands are cold and bare. Dear friend, across the river, I’ll take what you can spare.”
(There is no time to think when she is caring for someone else’s well being– there is no time to grieve when she has Caitlyn to focus on–)

Or, Vi and her grief... mixed in with a bit of music and religion. Also, Cait is an amazing girlfriend (who is trying to atone for her wrongdoings!)Series

Summary
Her body knows it before her mind can begin to catch up. Her heart beats in tandem with the person her muscles seek out in her delirium. The phantom touch of her hand, gripping and caressing. Lips that were made for Vi’s. Skin Vi had spent months touching in her drunken fantasies. Blue eyes that unearthed the bloody organ in her chest. Bile rises in her throat at the thought of–
We’re meant to lose this fight.
Caitlyn.

Vi doesn’t notice a slain Ambessa. She doesn’t notice the way red flags are still raised like a shield, all adorning the Medarda crest. She only just notices that red-headed officer that clung to Caitlyn like a parasite strewn in a lifeless heap. But she can’t focus on that now. On the implications of it. Because Caitlyn still lies there. Unmoving.
