"You must be the one Dream's simping over, that's supposed to be my spot," Was the first thing George said, and all four of them burst out laughing.
"George!" Clay was yelling, but no one could take him seriously because of how hard he was wheezing.
"Is he wrong though," Sap wondered, and not a single person on call was going to deny it.
"What a first impression, I'm Spade," Lilac laughed, feeling surprisingly at ease for such an abrupt introduction.
"Hello, Spade, it's nice to meet you."
"Lovely to meet you," She said, shifting to get comfortable in her seat. "You just missed the tour." Lilac switched over to George's stream, surprised at how many people were already there.
"Oh, did I..." George said, trailing off at the end. "Oh my gosh."
"What?" Sap and Dream asked in tandem.
"Tommy is spamming my DMs. Wants to know why I'm speaking to so many Americans at once." True to his word, Tommy popped up in George's chat with the message 'how could you'. Lilac chuckled.
"Keeping track of George's whereabouts? Monitoring who he's talking to? In the DMs? Does this sound familiar to anyone else?" She asked.
"Kinda sounds like fan behavior to me," Sap mused, and everyone else laughed.
"Definitely does, can confirm," George said. On his stream, Lilac could see him toss his phone onto his bed. "Tommy, shut up, I'm ignoring you." He logged into the server, running around with Sap and Clay to do Dream Team things. Lilac settled easily into the conversation, and the four of them consistently gave Tommy the smallest morsels of attention before ignoring him for another couple minutes. Lilac pulled up some of her homework, deciding to get things done while she talked to her friends.
"Oh my gosh, now he's spamming me," Sap reported, and she could feel him rolling his eyes. "'Let me in so I can talk to your girlfriend'. Tommy, ew, no." Clay wheezed.
"Wow, ew? Crazy," He said, and Lilac immediately pretended to be offended.
"Unbelievable. And here I was ready to confess my undying love," She said sarcastically, and because she knew how chat (and the general internet) would get, she immediately followed up with, "That was a joke, chat. Fanfiction writers, stand down, Sap is basically my brother." Sap screamed, genuinely making Lilac jump.
"You know about fanfiction?" He asked, expressing his shock with high volume, and Lilac chuckled.
"Of course I do. You think I'm going to let hundreds of thousands of people write about you without me seeing it? I was curious, so I read a few," She said, and all three of them began talking at once. She glanced over and saw the chat going so fast it was unreadable. Lilac leaned back from her desk and put up her hands even though they couldn't see, suddenly overwhelmed with all of the input.
"Whoa there, slow down," She said, and Sap laughed.
"You just activated the entire internet's trap card by saying that," He informed her. "If you thought it was bad before..." Sap's eyes darted over to his chat, which was collectively descending into madness.
"You really are going to be famous," Clay mused. "Someone in chat already said they love you more than me." Lilac couldn't help but snort.
"Do you stream, Spade?" George asked, and she shook her head.
"I don't, but I'm being politely peer pressured into doing so," She informed him, and she watched his face break into a smile on stream.
"Good, you'd make a great streamer. We'll keep bullying you - politely - into it." Lilac didn't even respond, she just rolled her eyes .
