Thank you! This was a fun design to figure out, blending Enforcer armor and Noxian armor 😄

Hi! I don't, unfortunately; the composition was set pretty early on, so I didn't detail where Vi's legs are overlapped. But I'm glad you like the art!

Thank you, glad you like it! Haha, I'm a sucker for the enemies-to-lovers trope as well 😄

Thank you so much! Hehe, there's definitely going to be some mention of Rictus, the big soldier, as a longtime instructor/training partner to Vi (and somewhat like Sevika to Jinx, having kept Vi out of trouble early on) 😄 I hope you like the fic!

Thank you so much!! It was definitely a goal to incorporate Vi's character and some of her original aesthetic into the design! Being well-ranked enough to get to personalize her uniform, she's going to infuse it with style, lol 😄
