You seem to be a fan of the "Vi/Caitlyn" relationship. :P

Anyway, my thoughts:

Demacia and Noxus

I'm not sure where this should/would go, but maybe people like Riven could convince the Noxians to see the bloody, power-hungry ways of Swain and create an uprising against him or join Demacia, as you said. I'm not too informed on this conflict though, so I can't say much.

Renekton and Nasus

I don't think these two need a common enemy added in, I think the depth of their relationship would be in their interactions with each other. I like the idea of Renekton taunting Nasus when taking attacks from him because that goes with his "driven to madness" mentality, but I don't think he would have "nice" things to say when they're on the same team. I think more sarcastic comments would be necessary like "it seems you are good for something" when assisting a friendly Nasus kill, for example. Nasus on the other hand, should have lines that show his regret for his brother's current state and (maybe) that he still wishes to cleanse Renekton of his anger. However, in Renekton's lore, it's stated that he was only spared from Nasus' killing blow because Summoners from the League intervened. So, maybe lines with a solemn attitude and the intention of still ending Renekton's life would be more appropriate, especially with Nasus' tendency for logical/reasonable thinking. Friendly lines might be things like "your anger has made you strong" and killing an enemy Renekton would be something simple like "it is over, brother".

Graves and Twisted Fate

I think this is the most likely candidate for a pair to have a Vi/Caitlyn-style relationship and set aside what has happened to go after a common enemy, Dr. Priggs (fun fact: the experiment performed to give Twisted Fate magical abilities was performed by Dr. X avi e r Rath [wut]). Graves stole from Priggs in the first place, who then offered Twisted Fate magic in return for sell him out. So, Graves would certainly harbor some anger towards TF (he spent years in Zaun prison), but they'd probably be on decent terms if they could rob Priggs blind and maybe "remove" him from existence. As you said, friendly banter/arguing would be fitting.

Kayle and Morgana

Similar to Nasus and Renekton, with each seeking to destroy the other. Morgana could potentially have the power to kill Kayle when they exit the League, since she joined the League to attain such power, at which point Kayle may be assisted by divine intervention (no pun intended) and the conflict will either continue or end in Kayle's favor. Again, like Nasus, Kayle was already willing to "purge those she deemed beyond redemption", so I imagine she would either kill Morgana or (as I would like to see) decide to spare her, in which case Morgana may see the act as a sign that those on Kayle's side can understand and accept her plight. Again, as you said, dialogue that implies their continuing conflict when allied, or ending of through opposing deaths, would be suitable.

Diana and Leona

This is my personal favorite mostly because it has the best chance of ending well for both involved, and I really like the characters. :3 Diana and Leona have both been sentenced to death for refusing to follow Solari teachings/traditions, the only difference being that Diana fought her way free only to survive bitter and betrayed, while Leona was saved by supernatural means and hailed as holy warrior as a result. I imagine that through their numerous battles in the League that they'd realize how similar they both are and would likely discuss their circumstances. I'd like to believe that Leona would eventually side with reason (and Diana) and decide to rebel against the close-mindedness of the Solari (a common enemy), not in a war, but more of an overthrowing of the current Solari leadership (and/or spreading of their owns beliefs amongst the people) to allow for worship of the sun and the moon. As for audible interactions, it would be cool to see lines added in which each questions the others' loyalty/alliance like "you would side with those fools?" for Diana or "I must protect my people from all threats" for Leona (though less cheesy). Apparently, in Co-op Vs AI, Leona bot can say "you'll pay for your heresy Diana!" (I assume in end-game chat, when fighting Diana). However, I can kind of accept not having direct dialogue due to a video I saw some time ago in which Diana's and Leona's lines were remixed into a song so that they were basically talking to each other, it was interesting to see the indirect connection they have with just their few lines (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q2XFgBdl4gI).

Oh, and I realize a lot of what I said was restating what you had already mentioned... x_x
