Ch. 11: The Murder "Low Lays The Devil In Me" CaitVi Fanfic

One big one it was. Sorry, the poll doesn’t have a time shorter than a day on it and I definitely wanted this out today.

Low Lays the Devil in Me Question

Question! This chapter for Noxus is suuuuper long. Like, so far is over 20,000 words and I still have one big conversation to wrap up and some descriptions and supplemental scenes and then I'm done. Should I split this mini-book into two chapters (Noxus Part 1 and Noxus Part 2) or keep it as one big chapter?

I started rereading today and saw the aside of Cassandra being jealous of the chemtech battle bots. I’m curious, do you have any plans of that get her, powder, and Jayce in the same room together? I foresee the ultimate chembot if so.

I don’t have any plans for it but I’m not ruling it out completely. If I don’t do it in this one, there’s a chance I will in the sequel. It would be pretty epic if they built a bot together though. They’d destroy everyone 🤣 so glad you’re rereading it 🥹

I do think writing fics has changed Vi from being my second fave to just being tied with Caitlyn for absolutely favorite. Idk if it’s cuz I’ve tried to spend so much time in her head from canon (at least, how I interpret being in her head) or what. But I’m not mad. She’s an amazing character. They’re just my babies ❤️💙

so... who's going to write a pirate AU for these two mfers?

Ch. 6: Small Steps "Low Lays the Devil in Me" CaitVi Fanfic

“Tell me, Officer Kiramman, do you find fulfillment in your occupation?” “Fulfillment, ma’am?” Caitlyn asked as Corina weaved through rows of colorful plants. “Yes, personally, I mean. Do you wake up every day with a sense of purpose and go to sleep every night with the knowledge that you are making your mark on this world?” Caitlyn thought about her answer carefully and decided to play it safe. “Would you even believe me if I told you that I do?” she replied with a sardonic smirk. Corina stopped and pulled out a few weeds from a beautiful batch of yellow bulb plants that Caitlyn recognized as tulips. When she was finished, she looked at Caitlyn. Her dark eyes, Caitlyn realized, were speckled with beautiful gold flakes that anyone could get lost in, should she choose to weaponize them. “If you were an ordinary citizen, perhaps I would believe you,” she finally answered. “But to go from the pinnacle of Piltover political power to the banality of chasing down petty criminals in the Undercity? Then no, I don’t believe that someone like you would find that fulfilling.”

Ch. 2: Everybody Wants to Be My Enemy "Low Lays the Devil in Me" CaitVi FanFic

“I don’t think you’re stupid, Mohan,” Caitlyn said quietly, but resolutely as she met his gaze. He hummed, almost like he didn’t believe her. “Well, then throw me a bone. It’s okay if you’re pissed at your boss for giving you an assignment that he knew would fuck with you emotionally.” She sighed harshly and ran her fingers through her hair. Opening up a little bit wouldn’t hurt, she thought. “Fine, I am angry,” she stated, allowing some of her fury to break through. Mohan just stared at her, taking a drag from his cigarette. After several moments, he nodded. “Okay, then. Let’s guard your family’s shit,” he said, stamping his cigarette out.

Caitlyn must contend with hostile forces on multiple fronts as Sheriff Marcus has a strange request for her and Mohan’s new assignment.

Ch. 2 "Tethered" CaitVi Fic

"Normally, stealing from a councilor is a minimum of ten years in Stillwater. However,” she said, ignoring Vi’s choked gasp, “given her age and the fact that she made me aware of Jayce’s illegal research, I have decided to not press charges.” Vander snorted, which obviously threw the councilor off as she raised her brow in surprise at the reaction. “You can’t let word get out that your boy was doing magic with your money and name, you mean, and are hoping for our silence in exchange for her not being carted off to prison,” he stated. Cassandra blinked at his words and Vi could tell she was taken aback at how easily Vander could read in between the lines. She quickly recovered and sat up even straighter, if it were possible. “Yes,” she simply responded. “I would prefer, if possible, to maintain a level of discretion regarding this incident.”

Ch. 19: Assault on Stillwater Part I "Low Lays the Devil in Me" CaitVi FanFic

Caitlyn laughed again and shook her head at Vi, who could only grin at the happiness that radiated off the other girl. Vi suddenly wished she could freeze time in that very moment of Caitlyn laughing in Vi’s childhood bedroom before everything would change and there was no going back. She raised her hand and pushed Caitlyn’s hair behind her ear, then cupped her cheek. Caitlyn sighed and gripped her fingers, pulling Vi closer as she kissed her palm so tenderly it made the back of Vi’s eyes burn. “I could never have done this without you, Cupcake,” Vi whispered. Caitlyn shook her head. “You are so strong, Violet,” she replied and brought a hand up to Vi’s chest, laying it over her heart. “And you love so fiercely. You are the daughter of revolutionaries. You never would have taken everything my people did lying down. At one point, sooner or later, you would have acted. You love your people too much.” “No. No more of this my people and your people,” Vi said, and the intensity of her tone made blue eyes widen in surprise. “Our people. You and I have bled and lied and killed and sacrificed for this moment. Soon, this will be over, and we can begin building a future that all our people deserve. We can be the ones who show them what they are capable of when we work together. We will show them, Cait. We will show them all.”

The alliance begins its assault on Stillwater while Vander and Cassandra confront Bolbok.

Writing tip to myself: try to sleep on a finished chapter before posting if it's late. I almost posted one at 2 am last night (which I have before and been happy with) but something didn't feel right and so I just slept on it. Looking at it now, I love what I wrote, but the "off" feeling was it's not placed in the right spot in the story. I'll use it later, but now I'll have to change up the chapter contents a little, which I'm already loving where it's going instead of what was going to happen. I think you guys will like it :D and what I will use later, as well.
