The Face that Launched a Thousand Ships indeed

Summary

"This is unacceptable," Caitlyn's voice cut through the air.

"Yeah?" Vi leaned back in her chair, a smirk stretching across her face - one she knew was absolutely insufferable. "I’m a big fan of doing the unacceptable every now and then. Keeps life spicy, y'know?"

The piercing blue eyes staring at her narrowed, and Vi felt her grin widen. Oh, this is gonna be fun. Uptight. Spoiled. And, to Vi’s absolute dismay, absurdly hot. The challenge was written all over Caitlyn Kiramman’s face.

"Is that how you ended up in prison?"

Vi blinked. She hadn't expected that.

But she recovered quickly, casually plucking a cupcake from the plate in front of her. "Nah, that was just my sunny personality that got me there," she said, taking a slow bite.

Remember that one guy whose mugshot went viral, and he ended up becoming a model after getting out of prison? Now imagine that, but it’s Vi. And Caitlyn is the bestselling author of a wildly popular fantasy novel that’s getting a TV adaptation. Turns out, Vi looks exactly like the protagonist she created.

I changed up the design a little to fit the tlok aesthetic a little more, and tbh I'm loving these, and I hope you do too!
