There’s a lot of fics like that actually. I follow one that uploads poetry. Sometimes it’s general fandom poetry, and sometimes sometimes it’s one character writing about another. That one hadn’t updated in forever I also follow one that’s kinda like wrong quotes, but they’re all made up by the author Anyway, yeah, ao3 is an archive, so you’ll find stuff that doesn’t fit the same format you’re used to. This is normal

ok i got curious and opened it and it seems like they're doing a thing where each chapter is a couple hundred words abt a topic that relates to the main plot. so like: anger, sickness, brother, awake, etc.

But if there isn’t at LEAST 1K per chapter (preferably 2-3) the chances of me reading it go way down
