Noxus chapter is coming along, I promise. I've gone through four drafts of this, changing up the plot slightly every time. It's going to be a long one and I hope you all like it. I'm thinking it will cover half of their time in Noxus, which will be the most important time there.
Literally how I write every chapter 🤣
me, struggling to write: hmm, this part is a little difficult. maybe i should check my planning document, which i created as a helpful tool for my writing process!
the planning document:
Hey, readers! Great news, "Low Lays the Devil in Me" will now be getting updates as soon as early next week. Thank you for being patient. For those that didn't know, I was spending my writing time getting about 50k words written of the "Tethered" CaitVi rewrite that I did. I felt bad that I abandoned the old version for the rewrite and wanted to make it up to those who liked that story by giving them a lot of updates. 50,000 words in 15 days I feel like definitely made up for it 😂
This means I will now be alternating between "Low Lays the Devil in Me" and "Tethered." To be honest, though, I don't think it'll take me too much longer to get the last of "Devil" out since there's maybe about 6ish (?) chapters left of the story. We'll see how that goes (I always underestimate how long a fic will be, it seems 😂). Anyways, fret not! I will begin writing the next chapter of "Devil" tomorrow 🙌🏻
Okay, my hand is feeling much better, and I can write again. I'll get a chapter or two of "Tethered" up first. I'm focusing on that one because I feel bad I stopped writing in the middle of the original version, so I want to get a few more out for those who like the story. Then I'll get back into "Low Lays the Devil in Me."
okay but silco is an honest smash
Haha I’ll plead the lesbian fifth on this one 🤣 I’ll admit that Silco has a certain charming bit to him, but if I *had* to pick a male smash in Arcane, I’d probably pick Jayce (only if he’s in his S2 act 3 look/fit though)
Warning for some spoilers for the fic, but holy shit these are amazing! Every single one is so accurate lolol
@caitlynkirammansrifle
Enjoy the chaos which is my mind after reading a fic I enjoy 😂
If you haven't yet, check it out!
In the few hours since I’ve posted the last chapter of “Low Lays the Devil in Me” and thus wrapping up that series, a few people have asked in the comments if I’ll do any one shots or anything like that in the AU.
While I love and appreciate that people really like my version the Arcane/LoL world and characters, I do not see myself doing anything else in this AU. I almost never say never, but it’s highly unlikely.
I am very happy and satisfied with where this story has ended and I’ve never been one milk a story just cuz I like the world/characters. To me, Caitlyn and Vi’s story in this world is complete and I don’t have any desire to further it.
@wrongcaitlyn hi!!!! You are so sweet!!!??? Thank you, what an incredible thing to say! I'd love to read your CaitVi whenever you are able to put it out. 😭❤️💙
Do y'all ever read a fic so good that it makes you want to elevate your own craft and also befriend the writer? It's almost like, "Hi! You write so well that you've inspired me to embark on a creative training arc. Also, can I yell about the character in your dms because you get it?"
“Thank you, Violet,” she said with more sincerity than Vi had ever heard from her. “You don’t get to thank me,” Vi replied. “She should never have been there. Caitlyn could have been hurt, really hurt, and all because you ordered me to bring her.” Cassandra looked at Vi and with the utmost seriousness said, “I understand that.” Vi glared at her. “I don’t think you do. I am done, Cassandra,” Vi spat. “I am done with these dangerous tasks without you telling me what they’re for. I won’t risk my skin again, and certainly not Caitlyn’s, unless you tell me what is going on here. My life–Caitlyn’s life–is worth more than being some councilor’s bitch while you just sit back and play your gods damned chess match with us. I am not a pawn and I refuse for you to act like my life is some kind of game for you to play with. Either you talk or we are through.”
Vi confronts Cassandra about what she wants with her. Cassandra gives Vi an unexpected and powerful gift.
The tattooed burglar swung her legs over the balcony railing with confident, graceful movement and turned so that she was facing Caitlyn. “Thanks again for not shooting me,” she said with a crooked smile. Caitlyn felt her breath hitch ever so slightly at how handsome this burglar was and prayed that the other woman hadn’t heard it. “Thanks for potentially saving my dissertation,” she replied. There was an awkward pause and Caitlyn got the bizarre feeling that the woman didn’t actually want to leave. Caitlyn was surprised that she didn’t want her to leave, either. It lasted only a moment before the stranger lowered herself down partially. She looked up at Caitlyn one more time with a more serious expression. “You should lock your balcony. The next burglar may not be as nice.”

Inspired by this post. I'll get back to writing "Low Lays the Devil in Me" soon, but I think someone needs to take my keyboard away from me because I have a problem. And bring me an ice pack for my poor hands.
Enjoy this 12,500 word indulgence.
So, I said in the last chapter notes that this next one might take me a while because it's going to be beefy. I'm 6000 words in and I don't even think I'm halfway 😭😬🤣 thank god I'm a fast typer lol
