There’s still one thing I have forgotten to mention in all this ...

  Crush

  Heeeey, such a shame that I only joined you just as you were ending the stream

  Gaia-chan

  Crush! My one and only crush!

  How was your stream?

  I finally beat that goddamn record lol

  Crush

  You know, it was business as usual

  Now what’s that about you becoming popular?

  I’m joining an agency!

  Or at least I hope to.

  Maybe

  There’s a contest for it

  Crush

  Nice! As usual, you can count on my support!

  Crush is there for his lady in need

  His last message was an image, I was sort of expecting already. It was a selfie, showing him in bed, smiling at the camera.

  good night!

  I stared at the bottom edge of the picture for a while, as if maybe I would be allowed a peek at what’s below. His shoulders were exposed just a bit.

  Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

  He doesn’t know I’m not a girl!

  And I have a crush on this guy!

  Sigh.

  One day I’m gonna have to tell him. I don’t know when that’s gonna be.

  We started chatting maybe half a year ago.

  Our DnD group had moved online because of the pandemic, and he joined at some point. I was playing as my female character Gaia, and hardcore roleplaying through all our calls, changing my voice and everything. And I guess he didn’t quite get the memo that I’m not in fact a girl.

  Quite a few people didn’t at first.

  He might be the only one left though.

  I wonder what he thought I looked like in real life. Did his mental image of me bear any resemblance to my V-Tube Avatar?

  God he will be so disappointed to hear I don’t even work out that much.

  What if he thought I was not only a woman, but also an absolute sports nut at that?

  I’m getting ahead of myself.

  I opened a new document in the text editor, to make notes for my V-Tubing career.

  Soon, I’ll go full speed ahead!
