That was my first casual stream, using my new streaming plan! I decided to have Monday as a set day for casual streams and Friday as a set day for speedruns. Of course, I’d still do speedruns and casual streams on other days, following a loose schedule. Like I did with Firby, which I played three days in a row.

I know, I make it out like streaming is my life, but that’s obviously not true. I still got uni to do ... sort of. And I still had my DnD group around!

And we were about to have our first in-person session in a while.

So naturally, I spent hours on end in front of the mirror.

Okay, let me backtrack a bit to explain.

So, my DnD group went online during the pandemic after which Crush joined us, who doesn’t know me irl, which is important because I play as a female character, so he thinks I am a girl, because I am also V-Tubing as one.

I think that about summarizes it.

I let my forehead sink against the mirror, as I cursed myself for the giant pile of shit I dove into headfirst.

And today would be the day, I would meet him for the first time.

Option A: I tell him the truth.

Option B: I somehow manage to keep this a secret by pretending to be a girl irl as well?

Nah, cross-dressing’s not gonna fly.

Even if I managed to trick him, nearly everyone else knows me, which would lead to lots and lots of awkwardness.

I could fake sickness.

Considering that damn virus is still around that would provide me with the perfect alibi.

That one sentence from that V-Tuber contest flashed before my mind once more.

„Be your best authentic self.“

I laughed bitterly at my mirror image.

I guess today would be the day I told him.
