Fool's Gold

"Don't you realize how fucked up this is? I have a feeling this isn't the first time you've followed me, either," Vi threw her hands up, exasperated. She couldn't lie - a part of her perked up when she saw the princess out of the corner of her eye, lurking in the shadows as she made her way home. On principle though, it was sick.

Caitlyn huffed, "Don't flatter yourself. I just happened to be going the same way as you. I have better things to do than be stalking you and-"

"Oh yeah?" Vi interrupted, "And what's that exactly? Marrying a man when you know deep down you would be absolutely miserable the rest of your life? And cosplaying as mommy and daddy's perfect daughter, all while shitting on the rest of us down here?" As if Caitlyn could ever play off that she just "happened to be" walking to the Undercity. It almost made Vi laugh aloud.

Caitlyn stared at her, the moonlight illuminating her blue eyes, turning them into sapphires. Moments like this made Vi's skin crawl. Caitlyn was equal parts beautiful and frightening.

"Jealousy doesn't look good on you, jester" she replied with a slight smile.

Vi infiltrated the Kiramman castle as a jester in search of answers regarding her sister's suspicious death/disappearance. In the process, she quickly won over the hearts of everyone, aside from the princess. Little did Vi know, the princess's hatred turned to a borderline psychotic obsession a while ago- but external pressures and internalized homophobia forced her to keep it hidden (until she couldn't anymore).
