Is Riot trying to ship Yi and Fiora?

So I was rewatching the PROJECT: Overdrive cinematic where Fiora saves Yi from the rubble and seems to hold him sort of affectionately, maybe I'm just thinking too much about it but it made me think of the Immortal Journey line where it straight up tells us she used to pine after Yi failed to win his heart so if the PROJECT one would get some sort of confirmation that would make two different lines where they're romantically involved even if it's not two-sided. Of course that means nothing in the main universe since they have no reason to meet and both seem like the loner type but it's still an interesting thing I noticed.

I'm not quite sure since I know there's a lot of speculation and in-game voicelines/content that lean towards Fiora being gay.

Then again, PROJECT is a separate story line so it may very well be possible. It could always be that way and just wasn't added upon or given more lore to it.

Unfortunately, both PROJECT and Immortal Journey lines have zero lore outside their skin bios and the one short story Ariel Lawrence wrote for PROJECT Vi/Vayne/Jhin way back when.

Really disappointing, because Immortal Journey is just plain beautiful.

I still have it as headcanon that the Immortal Journey characters are somewhere on Runeterra, just because some of the pairings (EG double Janna) are just so wholesome and heartwarming.

Well hopefully not. Already annoyed netherrealm shipped Jade and Kotal...

"She's spurned so many suitors. A wonder they did not see why." - Swain upon collecting a soul fragment from Fiora

This line seems to heavily imply that fio is into women, and with the latest valentines skins between her and vi, it looks even more so. Idk where riot plans on going with this, just giving the exact quote that makes it seem that way. Idk how true it is, or even if it transcends into the project universe, it just seems to be the direction riot is heading. Personally, i wouldn't mind, fio doesn't have an established sexuality (like old varus did with a wife and i believe a child) and neither does vi. They kinda suit each other tbh, but maybe that's just me
