Aaaaah reminds me of the chapter where Vi and Caitlyn play chess in Caitlyn's room in "Heart Made of Glass."
Fantastic piece, OP ❤️💙
I like those AUs where they stick with each other after the explosion and kinda grow up together and challenge each other.
idk if anyone’s asked this yet, but since the council positions are passed thru the eldest child … what happens if caitlyn & vi are both councilors and have a kid together?
(hope ur left hand’s okay btw!!! love all ur fics you’re an amazing writer ❤️)
Thank you for the well wishes! It’s healing, but still a little painful. The wound is right on the bottom edge of my left palm, which is right where I rest it when typing, so definitely awkward still. On the mend though!
I haven’t come up with an answer to that, idk if I ever will, but I have thought of that conundrum. It could be their second child gets Vi’s council seat or they could have one of Mylo’s kids if ever had any take over. There’s lots of ways it could happen.
She shifted her weight between her feet and wrung her fingers together. Cassandra, ever observant, furrowed her brow. “Caitlyn, is something wro—" “Can we talk?” Caitlyn blurted out, rudely interrupting her matriarch. She flushed at her inability to control her mouth and forced herself to speak more calmly. “When I get back, I mean?” Cassandra, who had been surprised by Caitlyn’s outburst, blinked in confusion. “Talk?” she parroted. Caitlyn nodded, the lump in her throat made it difficult to form words around. Her mother must have seen something—something different—in her eyes as Caitlyn noticed she had stopped breathing. “Of course, Caity. Whenever you’re free, I’ll be here.”

Caitlyn fakes Mohan’s death and reads him in on their mission.
As the sound of conversation and merriment filled her childhood home, she felt a small smile pull at her lips. However, if one were to look closely enough, they would see a faint sadness behind dull blue speckled eyes as Vi, subconsciously, rubbed at a spot in the center of her chest as her heart pulled at her to look for bright blue eyes in the crowd. Vi sucked in a quiet, shuddered breath as the agony of the missed connection flooded through her. She clenched her jaw and let it happen, like allowing a large wave to overtake her and remained calm until she was safe above the water again. Her heart beat mournfully for a moment, but then quieted down again as the ache soon left her. Vi glanced around and was glad that everyone seemed to be too caught up in the celebration to notice the few seconds of quiet pain Vi allowed herself to feel before it faded. With one more deep breath, she took a sip of her beer and went to actually partake in the festivities.

Five years later...
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
Hey! So I am working on the next chapter of Low Lays the Devil, but it's just been a busy and exhausting week. I have three days off of work after tonight and my only plans are taxes and laundry, so hopefully I can get the next chapter up soon!
I’m going to try to get the next chapter of “Heart Made of Glass, My Mind of Stone” today, but it’ll most likely happen tomorrow. Fingers crossed I don’t have too much to edit.
OH! Just saw that "Low Lays the Devil in Me" has just reached over 100,000 words with the newest chapter. Which means this CaitVi series is now almost 300,000 words long. We still have quite a ways to go in this fic, but I do believe we're now on the other half of half way done plot wise. Hard to tell when I'm making it up as I go along, but holy shit these are long fics. Haha. Definitely could see this series being 350,000 words total before I'm finished.
Thanks to everyone who has read, commented, left a kudos, or shared and those who interact with me on my little fanfic blog. You guys are the best <3
I finally got to get some work done on the CaitVi pirate AU. I’m hoping to have the prologue and first chapter out on Monday, but possibly sooner. I have a dresser that I’ve been meaning to paint for months that I want to get done though 😅
In case anyone is wanting a sneak peak at the next chapter of "Low Lays the Devil in Me," here is the playlist I'm listening to while writing it. It's title is very...appropriate 😈
Petition to make the “post” and “preview” button on ao3’s chapter section in two different places or two different colors or something to differentiate them more. The number of times I’ve almost clicked post instead of preview is a lot 🤣
