I am 4500 words into the next chapter of Low Lays the Devil in Me and it might be my favorite one yet of this fic! I'm having so much fun!! I think a lot of you will really enjoy it, too 😁
lmao imagine claggor walkin in during THE SCENE.
I knoooooooow. It would have been so traumatizing! lol poor guy. Just being the quintessential middle child and trying to mediate between his siblings.
Aaaaand I did it again. Lol Caitlyn has been there once, for the Remembering ceremony back in the first fic. Any chance someone wants to fix my memory of my own story that I made up so I don't ever forget anything??? lol
When you make really long sequel to a really long fic, sometimes you make a small continuity error 😬 I fixed a tiny thing at the end Ch. 16 of "Low Lays the Devil in Me." I forgot Caitlyn had never actually been to the Sumps, she went to the level above it. Oops.
@nogaph has done it again! An amazing sketch from the most recent chapter of "Tethered." Show them some love. I loved writing this scene so much and the beautiful motes of Arcane are such a nice touch in this artwork. It's pretty much exactly how I pictured it!
Edit: this is art from the original writing of “Tethered.” I would never think of taking this down though, as it is too pretty. As of May 21, 2025 this hasn’t happened in the rewrite.
what’s your personal fav art you’ve done?
definitely this one😭😭
Brain, don't do this. You got a massive story you're working on already....but-but-but...👀👀👀
I need two more hands and one more brain because I just want to write both the next chapter of "The Harrowing" and "Tethered" at the same time 😭
The fact that I am behind Critical Role’s new Calamity series should tell you how much of a choke hold Low Lays the Devil in Me has on me
“I know I hurt your feelings, Vi. I’m not an idiot. It was all over your face. I’m trying to apologize,” Caitlyn stated, interrupting her thoughts. Vi began to remove her clothes to change for Caitlyn’s lessons that would start soon. “You already apologized, princess. Not sure what you think has changed between last night and this morning,” she replied, pulling on a plain brown linen shirt and her most comfortable pair of leggings. “I’m not saying it just to say it, Vi. I truly didn’t mean what I said, I promise you.” Anger flared up in her, and she rounded on Caitlyn, startling her into taking a step back. “You Pilties and your promises. Do you have any idea how many of them your people have made to mine, only to break them? All you know how to do is talk. Like that will solve any of our problems,” she scoffed. “If you think that your words last night were the most horrible thing I’ve ever experienced at the hands of a Piltovan, you’re as arrogant as every other Topsider. So, why don’t we just chalk last night up to yet another win for the Pilties against a trencher and move the fuck on?”

Caitlyn does something that completely shocks Vi, and Vi slowly starts to figure out what has changed about their tether.
I know I'm not the only one but by God your writing is incredible. Low lays the devil and Heart made of glass have been my favorite CaitVi fics of all time. Everything you've written has been pure magic! ❤💙
The fact that I only just got back into writing, after almost a decade, a few months ago makes this comment even more incredible to me. Thank you so much. The fact that any of you love it is insane, but to have it be anyone’s favorite? I’m on cloud nine. Thank you so much! ❤️💙
I can't tell if it's because I've read and reread and reread my own fic a million times for editing and referencing, but I am not enjoying going back and cleaning up Heart of Glass lolol. could be that it's just so flipping long, too haha. Maybe I'll just do one chapter a day alongside writing the sequel. For now, I think I'll just play some cyberpunk.
