“I think it wants me to touch the tether.” Caitlyn’s eyes went wide in slight alarm. “I don’t know, Vi. Asking it questions is one thing, but this seems like it could be dangerous.” A soft plea pulled at her sternum, and Vi realized what it had been trying to ask her. She met Caitlyn’s concerned gaze, the Arcane scars in her blue irises glowing. “I think it’s asking me to trust it,” Vi stated carefully.

Vi and Caitlyn finally discuss the tether.
Just got a text saying the party I was going tomorrow is cancelled. So guess who has a completely free day to write the next chapter 🙌🏻
If you guys haven’t seen OPs CaitVi guardian angel work, it’s amazing. So fucking adorable and what an interesting concept. These snippets are a wonderful edition. Major kudos OP
first meetings ❤️🩹💙
main story
short snippet:
Caitlyn rolled her eyes. “Gods, you can be quite dramatic sometimes.” Outrage filtered through the tether, but then gave way to shock when Caitlyn reached out and laid her hand over Vi’s, which she could just make out in the dark. “What the hell are you doing, Kiramman?” Vi asked. Caitlyn felt Irelia sigh contentedly, and the pulling stopped. “Compromising with the tether,” she answered. “I don’t know about you, but I’m exhausted after today and would like to sleep instead of fighting it. I’m not saying we should let it do what it did last night, but maybe this will tide it over.” Vi hummed uncertainly, but Caitlyn felt her relax against the mattress again. “Fine. But the little parasite better not try anything.” Caitlyn tutted in disapproval at the nickname. “You’re incorrigible.”

Vi opens up to Caitlyn as they take an important step towards trusting each other.
Posting cuz I can’t be the only person who hadn’t thought of this. If you toggle the speak screen option under accessibilities on an iPhone, you can put your fanfic in reader mode or download it and have Siri read it to you with the screen off. As someone who doesn’t need to use this feature, I just never put it together until I started writing fanfiction again after an 8 year break.
It’s not exactly like an audiobook in that, for example, Siri can’t tell when a word like “okay” should sound bright and happy or serious and reluctant, so it can be jarring. But it’s super handy for writing as it will help you finding missing or repeated words or help you come up with ideas while you’re driving or something. It’s amazing! I feel dumb I never thought of it sooner.
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!
not me being a romantic but just wanted to ask anyway — will there ever be a flashforward to a caitvi proposal and/or wedding in any of ur fics 🥹 i just rly love the parts in Low Lays the Devil In Me where Cait just yeaaarns for a future with Vi & to grow old with her and i was just wondering if thats smth you’d ever write about ? (no pressure to answer this in case u didnt wanna spoil any future plans btw ❤️)
I don't want to say specifics in case of spoilers. I will say that I have a plan for something like what you're asking, but I won't say for which fic.
Glad you're enjoying my writing! Thank you!! <3 <3
So, I said in the last chapter notes that this next one might take me a while because it's going to be beefy. I'm 6000 words in and I don't even think I'm halfway 😭😬🤣 thank god I'm a fast typer lol
I’m going to try to get the next chapter of “Heart Made of Glass, My Mind of Stone” today, but it’ll most likely happen tomorrow. Fingers crossed I don’t have too much to edit.

“Vi. What are you doing here?” Caitlyn asked. Her voice was not unkind, but it wasn’t that familiar warm or teasing or stubborn tone she was used to hearing. Just emotionless. Vi hated it. “I’m, uh—I wanted to see if—only if you’re okay with it and it’s totally fine if you’re not—” Vi stopped herself. Now was not the time to ramble. Caitlyn’s only reaction was the slightest furrowing in her brow, but she did not throw Vi a single bone. Vi didn’t blame her. Vi looked down, trying to think of what to say. A familiar iron bracelet on Caitlyn’s wrist caught her eye and made her stomach swoop, but her heart twist. She consciously ran her hands over her pocket where her watch was. Just then, a thought came to the Zaunite, one she realized was the easiest answer given that it was the truth, but also something that would potentially have some good come out of this situation.
Cassandra has another strange assignment for Vi, with orders to bring Caitlyn with her. Vi has a proposal for Caitlyn.
