Illogical Feelings (analogical college AU)

A/N (important!)

hey y'all! this is kinda long but it's important. I have some announcements and questions for y'all. so uh, yeah :)

first, I keep seeing authors (esp ones I like) putting the word count of the chapter at the end of the chapter so should I do that? if I did it'd be the words of the actual story, not including the POVs, time skips and A/Ns at the end.

also I'm considering maybe making my average word count for chapters a bit longer, rn it's about 1,000 words but I'm thinking maybe going 1-2,000 words. the short chapters are easier to manage, but it does sometimes make me have to cut a chapter short to avoid making it too long so don't be shocked if chapters get a little longer lol.

next question, are there any particular ships y'all would like to see in this story? I know it's an analogical story but I'm also wanting to do others, like some royality on the side, maybe some hooking up in the group? 👀

also, I'm already like 5 (nvm it's more like 10) chapters ahead of what I have published, hence me posting so often lol. that means it's a bit late in the book doing it, but I'll introduce more characters lol, like some siblings and Critic, and my head cannon for the orange side, Ignorance! (For those of y'all that don't know Critic is from a video Thomas did, determining the best barbie movie. he's only been used once and isn't really a character but some people in the fandom know of him and I like him cuz he's sorta like Sleep/Remy lol)

and, to bring people up to speed as to where we are in the timeline..

classes don't start til the first week of September, but students can move on to campus in mid - late August, which is why they have a few weeks until they're actually in class. by the time I post chapter XIII (because I'm that far ahead), they'll be in the last week of August.

final question, do y'all like the Roman (ayyee get it?) numerals in the chapter and the chapter titles? I dunno why, I just like using roman numerals instead of regular numbers. tho it is a bit of a pain in the ash to constantly look up x number as a roman numeral lol. I probably won't change it but I'm curious to see what y'all think

anyway I think that's all for now, except also I think I'll be doing maybe two updates a week on this story, maybe just one? I'm trying to stay a few chapters ahead so I can keep to a schedule, but I'm going back to school 4 days a week soon :/

last thing oop sorry lol, I'm trying to write some more stories, but this one will be a priority, so I need y'all's help, which one would y'all rather see? (I'm hoping to do em all eventually but what would you like to see next?)

1. continuation of my Smol Sides fic
2. superhero au
3. fem!sides au
4. more oneshots
5. fantasy/part animal au
6. band au
7. highschool au
8. foster au (where thomas is the foster parent, likely virge as the kid)

or any other ideas? I'm trying, really trying, to write more stories but I'm having a hard time getting motivation for any besides this, and even this one is tough to get new ideas for now :/

anyway, thanks for reading and please do answer my questions!! at least one cuz I would love some feedback.

and if y'all could share this story w others that'd be great, cuz I'm v proud of it but it has little recognition.

that's all now, fr, take it easy ladies men and nonbinary friends (wanted to do smth similar to Thomas's outro but didn't wanna do the exact same thing lol)

- Virgil :)

p.s.!! I do have a Q&A up!! so please do ask questions in that story.
