Hey, for Tethered I'd suggest a Caitlyn centered companion story/ sequel rather than a full rewrite. Thanks for writing!
I thought about that as well, but because of the lore expansion, there's a lot that I would need to rewrite to fit that :(
Saw a post about someone asking who will write a pirate AU for CaitVi. Is that something you guys would like to read from me after Low Lays the Devil in Me is done?
Powder answered. “You need to separate CT02 and 03. They should never be mixed in their pure forms. Dilution is key to decreasing destabilization. Chem is volatile, but once you break down the compounds to their weakest and spread the power out throughout the machine you use it in, to avoid too much heat build up, you should be fine.”
Powder handed Jayce back the newly edited paper and he read it as if it held the answers to the universe itself. “I need to test this for myself,” he stated. He looked at Vi, with an almost ecstatic excitement. “Vi! Oh, Caitlyn, when did you get here? Doesn’t matter. Vi, I need CT02 and 03. Do you know where to find that in Zaun?”
Vi looked at Powder with a raised eyebrow. Powder smirked. Vi groaned. “Don’t. Don’t say it.”
Powder cackled. “Viktor always has Chemtech compounds on hand, Vi. I’m sure he’d love to see you.”
“Great! Vi, I need you to go to this Viktor and get me CT02 and 03, ten pounds of each compound,” Jayce instructed. “I’ll want plenty to work with and with some left over for back up.”
Vi scoffed. “Ten pounds each? I can’t carry that much weight all the way back with my crutch. Can’t we send a courier?”
Jayce shook his head. “Sorry, Vi, but I can’t let anyone else knowing what I’m doing. Councilor’s orders.”
“I’ll help,” Caitlyn volunteered, her smile far too sweet for Vi’s liking.
I didn't expect to love writing "Tethered" as much as I am! This Arcane bond between Caitlyn and Vi is so much fun to explore as is the more antagonistic relationship between them. An enjoyable deviation from Low Lays the Devil where they're madly in love 😂
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?
In order to avoid time in Stillwater Prison, Vi must complete community service after getting caught stealing from Jayce Talis, the protégé of the wealthy and intelligent Councilor Cassandra Kiramman. Instead of spending her nights working at The Last Drop and her days looking after her siblings in Zaun, she now has to be the errand girl to one of the most powerful people in Piltover. However, Vi soon realizes that something isn’t right. What secret project is Jayce working on? Why does the councilor keep sending Vi on strange assignments? And why won’t Caitlyn Kiramman leave Vi alone about what life is like in Zaun? Something is festering in the underbelly of both cities and Vi is beginning to suspect that the Kirammans know more than anyone realizes.

A story of what could have happened if Hextech was never invented (with some liberties taken with both LoL and Arcane canon).
So I’ve done a thing and have written almost 30,000 words in three days. I’m addicted to writing this. It won’t be as heavy as the show is, I don’t think, and I already have a chapter by chapter plan for where it’s going.
This is a slow burn with a lot of characters other than Caitlyn and Vi being the focus at times. But don’t worry, they’re still a very prominent feature and the main ship, they just won’t be the only thing being focused on. So there may be whole chapters where they don’t speak or interact.
I made this tumblr to share the story and talk about it outside of the comments section of ao3 if anyone wants it, but I’m honestly not a huge fan of any social media so not sure how active I’ll be on it outside of posting updates and answering people about what I’ve written (without sharing spoilers for upcoming chapters).
Hope I don’t regret it 😅
So, mainly my pride is injured, but I did hurt my left hand a bit tripping and I used my hand to break my fall. Just scraped up, nothing even close to broken or sprained, so all good. I might be a little slow on any updates just because it's awkward to type. Obviously I'm going to sit here and force myself to type through the pain, but just wanted to let you all know. Will be back at in earnest soon with updates for Tethered and Low Lays the Devil in Me!
The next chapter of “Tethered” is something else you guys. I really hope you like it! It gets intense!
Hey, readers! Great news, "Low Lays the Devil in Me" will now be getting updates as soon as early next week. Thank you for being patient. For those that didn't know, I was spending my writing time getting about 50k words written of the "Tethered" CaitVi rewrite that I did. I felt bad that I abandoned the old version for the rewrite and wanted to make it up to those who liked that story by giving them a lot of updates. 50,000 words in 15 days I feel like definitely made up for it 😂
This means I will now be alternating between "Low Lays the Devil in Me" and "Tethered." To be honest, though, I don't think it'll take me too much longer to get the last of "Devil" out since there's maybe about 6ish (?) chapters left of the story. We'll see how that goes (I always underestimate how long a fic will be, it seems 😂). Anyways, fret not! I will begin writing the next chapter of "Devil" tomorrow 🙌🏻
“The Blade Itself ” by Joe Abercrombie. And by that, I mean I’ve read 20 pages in 3 weeks 😩😅
If you see this you’re legally obligated to reblog and tag with the book you’re currently reading
Maybe after “Tethered” while I write the pirate AU???? Ugh so many ideas
I have been watching 911 while I draw and now I need a firefighter caitvi au. Vi as search and rescue and cait as paramedic
