“The tether. It doesn’t like those crystals,” Caitlyn explained, taking in a stuttered breath. “It’s afraid of them.” All three scientists gave each other a questioning look before Jayce turned to Vi and Caitlyn. “The Arcane can’t feel,” he said slowly. “It’s a natural phenomenon. Like rain or an earthquake. It has no emotions.” “Tell that to the thing in my chest that’s scared, because it sure as shit ain’t me that’s afraid,” Vi said with a frown, annoyed that this scientist refuted them when he wasn’t the one experiencing it. Viktor walked over to the chest and picked up a crystal, then held it out to the tether. The white blue light grew brighter, almost blinding, and the fear became stronger. The need to escape from the room was almost uncontrollable as Vi felt a burning sensation behind her eyes. “Please, stop! It’s afraid of it,” Caitlyn cried out, tears in her eyes.

The tether between Vi and Caitlyn is tested and experimented on, which results in a discovery.
Thank you for creating tethered! Is there a planned sequel to it?
You’re welcome! It’s been very fun to write and I’m glad you and others have enjoyed it.
I don’t have any plans for one. Not that there couldn’t be, but I already have the ending planned out and it’ll be closed up pretty well.
But never say never!
I'm about halfway through the first chapter of "Heart Made of Glass" sequel and I am just so excited! It's way better than the first chapter of the first fic, imo, and I hope you guys like it!!
Gods this fic really is everything. The fanart to come from it is so fucking beautiful, too!

I’m going to be honest, I was worried I was starting to lose steam/inspiration for “Low Lays the Devil in Me.” It’s probably why I focused on writing “Tethered” for a few chapters. But I forced myself to just take ch. 16 a paragraph at a time on my phone for the last week and then forced myself to sit at my computer yesterday and finish the chapter.
Turns out forcing yourself to write even when you’re not inspired works. I’m now extra excited to keep working on it 🤣
LOVING the new Tethered fic but I also really need to know what happens next LLTDIM, especially because of what Caitlyn had to do. Need that hurt/comfort like I need oxygen 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
No rush of course! Just wanted to know when to clear my schedule 🙂↕️🙂↕️
Promise I’m not forgetting about Low Lays the Devil in Me. I just feel bad for the people who liked the previous version of Tethered that I abandoned, so I’m trying to make up for it! I’ll get back to our little spy fic soon!
Turns out writing a spy story is hard 🤣 I have spent half the morning and a few hours last night trying to figure out getting something to work in “Low Lays the Devil in Me.” This one is a bit harder to make up as I go. I was worried I had boxed myself into a corner, but I have a plan now!
Hi Caitlyn Kirammans,
I've read chapter 10 of Low Lays the Devil in Me and it's been one of the most interesting because of the information that has my attention and how Mohan's role will be, will it be a great help or a disaster because of his sense of justice.
Like:
1: This plan was devised by Cassandra, Vi, Caitlyn, Vander's family, Grayson and half of the council (Shoola and Mel) in collaboration with Noxian spies, a clandestine operation (the stories remind me a lot of the Black Ops games if you know the Call of Duty saga).
2: Will the next chapter be about Vi and her time in Stillwater and Section 41 or Room 41? (correct me if I'm not wrong).
3: Will there be a romance between Jayce and Mel like it happened in S1 of Arcane?
4: Will Renata Glasc (if you know the character) appear in the future?
Greetings ♥️♥️♥️
PS: Thanks for reconsidering if Gloria will be a vastaya, I imagine her as a Kitsuné like Lest and Ahri (sorry for my lack of knowledge of the Ionian species, I'm new to LOL lore and there are species that are very unknown and some have hardly any information).
Hi again!!
1. I haven’t played COD in literally 20 years so I’ll have to take your word for it 🤣
2. Next chapter will not be from Vi’s POV at all.
3. Not sure if there will be an actual romance or just have it be a running gag.
4. I don’t think I’ll have Renata Glasc in this fic, but not ruling it out. We already have some enemies established so not sure if I want to add another one at this point. We’ll have to see.
Thanks for the ask ❤️💙 hope you like the next chapter 😁
So, I've really started to flesh out the CaitVi Pirate AU. I'm sooooo stoked for it, you guys. It's going to be very different than anything I've written, which means it'll be challenging, but I am chomping at the bit to really get going on it. I don't think I'll wait for "Low Lays the Devil in Me" to be done, so I will probably start posting chapters after I'm done with "Tethered."
Soulmate. Two Spirits in one soul. Inextricably bound together for eternity in perfect harmony—until mankind intervened. When teenagers Vi and Caitlyn are caught up in an Arcane explosion, a magical tether is formed between them that won’t let them be further than 15 feet apart from one another, physically and dangerously wrenching them back together if they try to separate. With the study of magic banned in Piltover, the brightest scientific minds will have a hard time figuring out how to break their tether. As the magical bond between them evolves, so do their feelings for one another. Soon, Vi and Caitlyn begin to question whether they truly want the tether to be broken and wonder just how far they are willing to go to ensure that it isn’t.
