The Love Of A Sister

                                    

                                          
It had been a few weeks since the interaction with Jinx in the Undercity and the couple had started to fall into a new routine. Every day they would go about their regular business, Caitlyn going to work some days and others staying in to have a romantic day with Vi, and at night Vi would go down to Zaun and spend a few hours with her sister. There had been some rumblings in the enforcer's circle that they were looking to bring Vi on board, amazed at her quickness of finding Caitlyn as well as her fearlessness in just about every situation. Caitlyn had offhandedly mentioned it, but nothing seemed to be in the form of an offer. Vi didn't want an offer anyway, she didn't want to be an enforcer... at least not right now. 
The problem with Vi having a full day each day followed by going to the Undercity in the evening was that she didn't have much time for resting and sleeping. As much as she loved spending time with Caitlyn and as relieved as she was to finally break through to Powder, she was utterly exhausted most of the time. Caitlyn had tried to get her to sleep, sometimes using trickery to try and lull her girlfriend into a snooze, but the boxer was resilient to such methods. Caitlyn was struggling to think of ways to lighten Vi's load, it hurt her a bit to see the person she loved exhausting herself day in and day out. Eventually she had a thought. Not one she thought particularly enjoyable with a variable chance at success, but she had to do it for her Muffin. 
A few days later, when Cait had a day off, she took Vi into town for lunch and proposed her thought, leaving her true reasoning for why she wanted it out of her explanation. She loved Vi a lot, and by now had gotten to know her quite well, and she knew that if she proposed anything in the interest of Vi's wellbeing she would probably refuse. She was a protector by nature and had a certain level of pride to go along with it. Cait even remembered far back to their first encounter when Vi pushed her hand away from cleaning a cut. Perhaps she thought it a sign of weakness, or some kind of neediness, Caitlyn truly couldn't be sure. 
After explaining her thoughts Vi was left surprised. She hadn't expected such an idea to come from Caitlyn, especially not so soon. She liked the plan though, and it seemed in good taste. It was something Vi would have attempted to do eventually anyway, but to know that it was something her Cupcake was already prepared for gave her a fill of confidence and relief. 
So, the next night that Vi was going to the Undercity, she asked Powder to meet her on the bridge instead of Jericho's. And at the time they usually meet up Vi had arrived with Caitlyn, the couple walking hand in hand. 
Caitlyn was sweating bullets. She didn't want Jinx to see her as just another enforcer and certainly not a threat. She was already having second thoughts about this whole idea, her heart beating so rapidly with nerves it could burst from her chest. As they approached her girlfriend's sister through the bridge's fog she had to put all her strength and trust into Vi being able to nullify any situation that could arise.
Vi was also nervous, she didn't know how Powder would take this proposal. She had worked out some kind of speech to explain to Powder what was going on but she knew her sister only had so much reason to work with. She didn't want Cait to get hurt, she didn't want PowPow to get hostile, the whole situation had a good chance of escalating. Vi just wanted to stop that. She had peppered in small details about Caitlyn each night she spoke with the gunslinger in an attempt to humanize her. She wanted Powder to see Caitlyn as a person, as someone who could be a friend, as someone who she loved. She didn't know how successful any of these efforts would work out to be but she had done her best. 
Jinx was simply confused while she stood waiting on the bridge for her sister. Why would she want to meet up here? She never brought her big gun with her when she met with Vi, only ever the pistol. She knew there would never be much threat with Vi around anymore, and if there was, her older sister could handle it. She patiently waited for her sister to come through the fog with whatever yielded this special occasion on the bridge. Unfortunately, the big surprise seemed to be that she had brought her enforcer, her "Caitlyn". Weren't these nights supposed to be their own time? Why was she bringing this person into the mix? She didn't understand, and she was starting to panic. Their silhouettes were slowly becoming more detailed, more human. Jinx remained confused. She wanted to shout out, but before she could, it seemed the tall one had stopped walking forward. It was just Violet's image becoming clear in the moonlight, not the other one's.
