I've Said Before That I've Been Making Up My Fics As I Go, As I Have Found Out That I Am More Of A Discovery

I just watched a clip of Cassandra’s funeral scene in Arcane and I felt way more sad than I did the first time I watched it because of my dumb fic. I’ve grown way too attached to her 😭

Please make them happy🙏🏻

I promise I'm working on it!! 😭😂💙❤️

Again??? I just posted a new chapter of "Tethered," and AO3 is loading slowly almost immediately. This happened yesterday when I posted the Pirate AU, too! Is it me?? Am I the problem??

Ch. 11: Disappointments and Consequences "Tethered" CaitVi Soulmate AU Fanfic

"Councilor, I am speaking as a parent of four teenagers. You locked two seventeen-year-olds inside for the last two and a half weeks, and you're surprised that they snuck out to attend what sounds like a party?" Vander asked incredulously. "I can't speak to your children, Vander, but Caitlyn does not disobey my rules," Cassandra stated, almost in offense. It took everything in Vi to not roll her eyes. Caitlyn was far too well-versed in how to get in and out of her window to have never done it before they went to Zaun. Vander narrowed his eyes at the Councilor. "What is that supposed to mean?" he asked with a low growl. Cassandra seemed unmoved by his flash of anger. "Caitlyn never would have behaved so abhorrently before she met Vi. I'm not sure I like the influence she is having on my daughter," Cassandra stated matter-of-factly. Righteous indignation flared through Vi as she heard the couch creak as Vander gripped the frame of it until his knuckles were white.

Vi and Caitlyn's families discuss how they snuck out, and the girls find out their punishment.

I am feeling things. *screams into a pillow*

Maybe one day I’ll do an AU where Felicia lives and Caitlyn meets her. What a dynamic that would be

I'm wrapping up the next chapter in "Low Lays the Devil in Me" and I was like, why does this feel like it's so short? Then I realized that 5,500 words are nothing in comparison to the almost 25,000 words of the last chapter 😅 this kind of chapter length is a breeze in comparison to that! Lol

If I played a drinking game while writing this CaitVi fic where I'd drink every time I mistyped Caitlyn's name as C-A-I-L-T-Y-N, I'd be passed out within an hour, I stg

I just powered through your fic and it’s probably up there with my favorites right now. I’m extremely impressed by just how much you’ve written in such a short time. I’m very excited to see more, and also enjoy your take on Cassandra. Probably my favorites right now part tbh.

It means so much to me that you love it so much and that you even took the time to come on here to say this. That is so nice of you 💜💜 you all have just been the best and so supportive!

Ch. 23: Epilogue "Low Lays the Devil in Me" CaitVi Fanfic

This is the final chapter of the CaitVi series "I Will Give You My Rebel Heart."

Low Lays the Devil in Me - Chapter 23 - caitlynkirammansrifle, just-a-pleb-les (caitlynkirammansrifle) - Arcane: League of Legends (Cartoon 2021) [Archive of Our Own]

See below for a little sappy message on wrapping up this epic, massive series.

I'm copying and pasting this from the end note section of this final chapter:

Okay, so let me be a bit of a sap for a moment.

I never, ever, ever in my wildest dreams thought I could ever actually complete a fic (or any piece of writing) of this length, let alone 2 in a series that make up 350,000 words! According to Google, the average word count for a book is 70-100,000. So, since I started this fic in December of 2024, I have spent the last six months almost to the day writing over 3 novels' worth of words. Now, working in an established world with established characters (a lot of which I also used from official LoL lore) definitely helped with world-building and character creation. However, that is still a wild feat to accomplish, and I’m not so humble as to not be proud of myself for writing two semi-coherent stories with 350,000 words and making them up, for the most part, as I went.

That all being said, I’m not 100% sure if I would have done this at the pace that I had with the excitement that I had if it weren’t for how amazing and kind you all have been. The fact that there about 1200 comments (that’s halved from what the actual number shows because I’ve replied to almost every single one, so I’m not counting mine) and I’ve only had 2 hate comments that I’ve had to delete is absolutely wild given that this is the internet and that CaitVi can be a bit of a controversial pairing in the fandom. What I’m trying to say is thank you to every single person who has read this, left a comment, left a kudos, subbed to the fic/my ao3 account, bookmarked, followed me on social media, been inspired by this story to write a fic/create a piece of art, and everything in between. This has been one of the most creatively fulfilling things I’ve ever done, and I appreciate every person who was kind enough to give it a chance and more.

This story is not perfect, I’m sure there are more than a few plot holes or underdeveloped parts and other issues that come with fanfic writing without an editor and problems that come with making it all up as you go along, but I don’t care. This story and this version of these characters mean so much to me (looking at you, my queen Cassandra Kiramman), and this will forever have a special place in my heart. Thank you to everyone who has joined me on this wild ride. It has meant the world to me ❤️💙
