Grief hangs over Vi’s head like her own personal storm cloud. She tries her hardest to ignore it, push it down, make it go away. There’s no place in her new life for this grief. Caitlyn understands that she needed to release Jinx. She understands that she can’t let her own grief and rage keep eating away at her compassion like an acid bath.
But Vi understands that Cait is still raw from Vi’s words after stopping her from shooting Jinx straight through Isha, still untangling the knots Ambessa Medarda made of her morality, and is still adjusting to this new normal that they’ve crafted.
Vi can’t force her girlfriend to comfort her through the loss of Jinx. That’s just… cruel. She’s still fragile. Vi can’t upset their delicate balance right now.
After that, we show Vi’s grief through OTHER people’s POVs: Caitlyn, Sevika, Ekko, etc
