Accidental Developments in Story (Patreon)

Sometimes when I'm writing, the world accidentally gets developed.  For example, when I was writing about Xevaronian social structures in Of Space and Bachelor's degrees, I didn't particularly have that planned. I knew that they would be split into groups, but I had sort of assumed in the back of my mind that they somehow just chose different universities to attend. However, that idea was clearly stupid, and thus the actual structure took form .
