Vi’s smile widens, a little too much so it veers into goofy. It’s not that she’s never been with another woman, but there’s definitely a lot of newneess to being with Cait. Her heart tends to flutter into her chest and she gets what people mean about getting lost in the way someone looks at you.

It does feel like having a girlfriend for the first time.

VI’s quick about it. She takes a step back and to the side, places an arm at Cait’s back and behind her knees, and with a short ‘hup’ hoists Cait up in her arms, carrying the taller girl wounded warrior princess style.

She deepens her voice on purpose and quotes the very familiar lines, “Neri, I’ve got you. Hold on to me!”
