Vi is a bit later than canon maybe? Either way, she overhears Jayce and Caitlyn talking about his patronage situation. She calls off the robbery and then shows up at Jayce's apartment later with some stuff Powder built to to talk to him about setting something similar up for her.
It's a very silly fic.
Cait & Vi each recently went through a rough breakup. They correctly figure out that Jayce & Mel seated them together to try to matchmake.
They decide to pretend it's working, then have a messy dramatic "breakup".
But it actually works. They get together. They steal Vi's dog, named Cheeto, back from her ex who stole him.
Anyone know the name of this fic?
Build anything, once.
MC might be an SI.
In the beginning they're press ganged by the E88. They build a spear made out of a supernova and kill some E88 capes, then go independent. Not sure of anything else they make. Maybe black hole armor?

Taylor has full on telepathy which seems to have lead to her swan diving past the moral event horizon, including viewing most everyone as lesser beings.
She does something to Amy while being healed that causes Amy to basically supersoldier her, making her strong/durable/fast/agile/etc.
Anyone know what fic this is?
The first two have the same premise, mirrored. One wakes up, doesn't recognize the other as being their girlfriend (or wife, not sure) and then proceed to gush over or try to woo her.
The third has Vi waking up with temporary amnesia, and from photos on her phone and some other things decides that Caitlyn must be her girlfriend. But she's not, they've just been pining idiots living together for years. Vi then basically sweeps Cait off her feet and then they're girlfriends.
Anyone recognize any of these?
Thanks!
Anko was there also. Twas a silly fic.

Gonna be focused on the book here, cause the movie used a completely fictional, smaller and more form fitting EVA suit.
Grace himself weighs ~80kg.
An Orlan MKS space suit weighs ~110kg. I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure the exact model Grace had doesn't exist, but whatever, we'll go with 110kg.
In his suit, Grace would've weighed ~190kg, or ~419lbs.
The gravity Grace was experiencing was 40% more than Earth's, so when we factor that in, in his suit Grace would've weighed ~266kg or ~587lbs.
He had to climb on top of a spaceship at a 30 degree angle, and the Orlan suit is seriously bulky, look at it.
Coma muscles for the win, goddamn.
A long time ago, shortly after I learned about the whole E=MC^2 thing, I thought it would be a much cooler way for Superman to get his powers. It doesn't really make sense, but to me it made much more sense than somehow getting insane amounts of energy from what little sunlight hits him.
I'd probably prefer something like a Superman package powerset, but I'll take what I can get.
Strongly prefer specifically eating things which are then converted into energy by fictional super digestion. But I'll also accept, y'know, just picking up a rock and absorbing the energy of it.
Caitlyn puts out some kind of ad that she's looking for a roommate. Vi sees it and finds it suspicious, because it's a very nice place with very low rent, but she checks it out anyway. There might also have been some strange warnings like "i keep very odd hours" and "the curtains must be closed at all times", or something like that.
Vi moves in and Caitlyn is just... suspiciously Vampire-y. Drinking wine that is very red indeed, fixating on a small cut Vi got, appearing very silently out of nowhere, typical vampire things.
Pretty sure there were only a couple chapters.

We can't know for sure either way, just wondering what your opinion on it is.
I prefer to think that no, they couldn't. Just because I like the idea that Humans and Eridians really needed each other, even if both crews survived. Pretty sure the Hail Mary crew would not have been able to retrieve a sample of Adrian air on their own.
Also humans are more technologically advanced in quite a few ways, which may well be very relevant here.
>When I Don't Like Something About The World, I Change It (100cp)
>>You are smarter than most people, because you can see the flaws in things, so long as you aren't blinded by sentimentality and you look for them. They just leap out at you, begging to be pointed out to the sheeple around you so they have the chance to improve themselves. What kind of things? All kinds of things! People, places, psychic illusions caused by space parasites, institutions, inventions, yourself, high-tech simulations your mind is trapped inside, no flaw can hide from you if you take the time to look for it.
>The Universe Is Basically An Animal (200cp)
>>It grazes on the ordinary. It creates infinite idiots just to eat them. You are not an idiot like the
rest of the galactic population. If you wish to be, you will never be satisfied with the way things
are. You have the potential to see the way things could be, the path that your skills can chart the
way to change it, and the drive and willpower to get there, heedless of any barriers between you
and your desired goal.
>Sometimes Science Is More Art Than Science (400cp)
>>No one understands technology like you do. You have a limitless and boundless capacity to understand and use technology for your own ends, to a degree that would boggle the mind of anyone who could comprehend what you can do. There’s no alien tech you can’t identify, no computer system you can’t hack, no device you can’t disarm or sabotage or subvert, even while blackout drunk, and you can even do crazy off the wall shit like hijack a machine that has trapped you within a simulation and trick it into downloading your mind into the body of the alien that’s interrogating you without anyone else finding out even if they are actively monitoring you as you do it.
>I Wasn't Born Into The God Business, I F*cking Earned It (600cp)
>>You are the smartest person in the universe. You have an intellect so far beyond comic book super intelligence that you make the likes of Reed Richards and Tony Stark look like toddlers who haven’t even figured out how the Legos snap together. In addition to being a scientist and engineer of unmatched skill, you can apply your boundless intellect to any other skills or abilities you possess, boosting them into the stratosphere. You can pull off such things as making working portal guns that take you into alternate universes, or inventing an invisible deterrent that instantly kills anyone who touches you with their bare hands, or inventing a cloning process that can save you from death by downloading your mental state from your dying body into a fresh clone body at intergalactic ranges, and pretty much anything you can dream up. For you, the question of what you can do with science isn't "is this possible" it's "is it worth the effort", because there's nothing you can't do (save for anything that would require you to possess an Oldwalker Spark received from an Endjump Scenario), if you want to do it.
So I think every one of these perks besides the 600cp one is some degree of redundant if you do take the 600cp one. Because, to me, I always figured those things Rick is capable of are a function of his intelligence. Being a ridiculous super genius is exactly why he can do it.
The strikethrough text stuff are the things that I think would not be covered by the 600cp perk. That's the stuff that's not redundant. It seems to me that everything I did not strike through are things that jumper would be capable of, or at least mostly capable of, with the 600cp perk by itself.
And you could get all of the strikethrough benefits just by taking the 100cp Jerry perk, which allows you to put your full effort into whatever you want whenever you want.
What do you all think?
I've seen two fics that do this, I'm kinda looking for both of them.
But here are some details from the one I'm really looking for:
Pretty sure one of the siblings drops a box or something, which opens and they see Caitlyn's dildo.
Also I think they accidentally left one box in their truck, which Vi went back alone to give to Cait.
Cait has a housewarming party after moving in and invites them.
Vi is talking with Cait & Mel & Jayce. Mel says that Vi's siblings mentioned that the moving company job is a temporary thing for them while they're each working towards doing something else. She asks if Vi is the same. Vi says that she does amateur(?) boxing, and that she'd like to go full time professional. But part of the problem is that her trainer, Sevika, is also a fighter and just doesn't have the time needed to train Vi properly. Mel says she'll ask her mom, who in this fic is a former-world-champion-turned-businesswoman(?), to go to one of Vi's fights. Ambessa would be willing to make the time to fully coach someone if they have right stuff.
At some point there's a time skip where Vi is a full time professional, possibly a world champion.
Does anybody recognize this?
Vi and Powder are going to the same college at the same time. Vi is a typical college age, and Powder is there at ~15 years old because she's a genius. Vi is studying... some kind of engineering I think. At one point Caitlyn asks her something like "so you're becoming a literal rocket scientist", and Vi answers that yes she is. Vi is also working as a bartender, possibly full time.
Vi & Powder are there on a Kiramman scholarship, in provided housing. Caitlyn lives right next door to them. Oh, and Caitlyn mostly befriends Powder at first.
Caitlyn notices that they are financially struggling because I think they don't have parents or Vander to help pay for their food and whatnot. She talks to her mom about their situation, who agrees that there should be more money given for people who don't have any financial support at all. Cassandra changes the scholarship program to give all recipients a stipend.
Anyone recognize this?
It's a short fic. A one-shot, I believe.
Vi is there mostly just to visit I think. Caitlyn is there with Vi to visit Ekko. Tobias is there with Piltover doctors to help treat people.
I think it's mostly from Caitlyn's perspective. She watches Vi play with firelight kids. I remember a pretty specific line, one small kid went to tackle Vi and "she went down like she was hit by a chemtank" or something like that.
At some point Caitlyn thinks or says to Tobias that she doesn't think Vi realizes how much she loves doing this, how happy it makes her, and they'll need to make sure she visits often.
Vi stops playing with the kids, and starts rough housing with Ekko. Some kind of pseudo-sparring match exciting enough that some people would stop what they were doing to watch IIRC.
At one point Tobias tells Ekko that they're done for the day, and asks him if they should clear out as soon as possible. Ekko says they can stay a while.
And I think that's everything I remember from it.
