Remap Esc to Caps Lock after mapping Caps Lock to Ctrl and Esc with xcape

I currently have Caps Lock mapped to Ctrl when held and Esc when tapped (for vim) via these commands in .xinitrc setxkbmap -option 'caps:ctrl_modifier' xcape -e 'Caps_Lock=Escape' This works, but leaves me without Caps Lock so I want to remap Esc to Caps Lock. I've tried setting it with xmodmap -e 'keycode 9 = Caps_Lock' but that overrides the mapping on the Caps Lock key as well. Is there any way to achieve these mappings? Caps Lock -> Ctrl and Esc Esc -> Caps Lock
