I just have some editing to do and a final read through of the next chapter of “Low Lays the Devil in Me” and you guys will have 7500 words of the battle at Stillwater to enjoy! It’s super action packed and it’s the longest sequence of non-stop action I’ve written by a mile! It was fun but hard to write, but I think you guys will enjoy it. It still is in line with the M rating and I don’t get descriptive of gore or anything like that, but buckle up for a lot of violence as the darker side of Caitlyn and Vi will be fully fleshed out. This chapter, more than any of the others, represents the title of this fic very closely.
9000 words and counting 😭😬🤣
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
Literally cannot escape Arcane, not even where I work is safe 🤣
Ya'll, I looked for aaaages for this artwork for the Stillwater chapter of "Low Lays the Devil in Me" (if you know, you know) to be a reference/inspiration piece. This is exactly what I pictured Vi wearing, but I couldn't find it to describe it. Didn't find it in time but did now haha
Also, I just fucking love this piece so much. They look so badass and gorgeous and so in sync! Excellent job OP

okay but silco is an honest smash
Haha I’ll plead the lesbian fifth on this one 🤣 I’ll admit that Silco has a certain charming bit to him, but if I *had* to pick a male smash in Arcane, I’d probably pick Jayce (only if he’s in his S2 act 3 look/fit though)
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.
“I’m assuming we can trust that our teenage spies will be able to keep their hands to themselves and remain focused on the objective?” Mel asked with a hint of doubt in her tone. Vi and Caitlyn glared at the woman. “Would you like to come with us to be our chaperone? Or is that too far away from the safety of your ivory tower?” Vi asked with a sneer. “It is hardly an outlandish question,” Mel defended. “We’ve all been teenagers in love before and we cannot take any chances that this assignment will be compromised because of hormones.” Vi felt her ears go hot at the woman suggesting they were in love, but pushed aside her embarrassment. “Worry about the things you can control, Councilor Medarda, and we’ll do the same,” Caitlyn said, her voice borderline condescending.

Vi and Caitlyn are given their first assignment together as members of the alliance.
In case anyone is wanting a sneak peak at the next chapter of "Low Lays the Devil in Me," here is the playlist I'm listening to while writing it. It's title is very...appropriate 😈
Caitlyn’s reverie of Vi’s attractively full lips was interrupted by Grady. “Miss Kiramman, shall I call in your art tutor, and she can have you begin a lesson in still life drawing with Miss Vi as your first subject?” Vi snickered as she watched a mortified Caitlyn blush from her neck to her hairline. She briefly fantasized about asking her mother to fire Grady. “I’m sorry, Professor. I promise I’ll focus,” she said in a strained voice. Vi continued to quietly laugh at her embarrassment, and Caitlyn clenched her jaw to resist the urge to growl in frustration.

Caitlyn learns what it’s like to live with a roommate, and Vi is forced to attend Caitlyn’s school lessons.
Low Lays the Devil in Me potential update.
Not sure if I should post the next chapter yet. I said in an earlier post that if I found a natural break, I would be done and I think I'm at it and i would be happy with it if if this was the whole chapter. It would mean a slightly shorter than average chapter (which is still pretty long considering the word count on some of these chapters lol). But I know there's one specific scene that won't be in it yet that everyone has been waiting for.
Decisions, decisions.
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 😁
