seeing karl again filled your life with hope. he had re-entered your small corner of the universe and it solidified that he was going to come back. you guessed his only reason for being in the cafe that second time was for you- why else would he order the first drink on the menu and flirt every time he had the opportunity? however, a small portion of you said he was just doing it for a dare or something, but that was quickly shut down with basic logic. nothing had changed with him- his hair was still fluffy, he still had a soft look in his eyes, the clothes he wore fit the same style- he was still your karl, the person that made you want to actually come to work with energy and charisma and look nice while doing it. one scene from that small portion of time replayed in your head though, you had a chance to see his nails which were painted a soft purple which made your heart beat five times faster.

the soft sound of rain slowly filled the room as you were brought back to the world- you were sitting slumped in your bed, mindlessly scrolling through twitter, you see a peculiar notification come through.
deb had sent you a message, which was strange because you were literally just down the hall and would normally barge through your door to cuddle you and tell you about whatever she needed to tell you- and as your thoughts came through so did more messages.

OH
MY
GOD
Y/N LOOK AT THIS RIGHT NOW
HOLY SHIT
twitch.tv/karlnetwork/clips/karl-coffee-crush/aKxz1j3p2h4k/

as you looked at the first part of the link you were confused- until you read through it again and it all clicked.
karl. coffee crush.

holy shit.

clicking on the link, you were immediately greeted by the twitch app- an app you never used, you had downloaded it after a old friend recommended the platform in high school- and it took you to a twitch channel under the name as karlnetwork. "wait- does karl stream?" a soft thought headed through your brain, as the clip slowly loaded onto your screen-

suddenly karl appeared on your screen, along with music and the occasional chime of donations, one of which in what you assume is text to speech asks "anything happen with the cafe worker? please karl we all want yo know" karl looks up at the camera and giggles slightly, pressing his hands into his frog hoodie. uttering out a quick response, he gives a small "uh, yeah actually.." suddenly, you hear another voice- somewhat higher pitched and yet deeper utter a childlike "OOOOOHHH LETS HEAR IT!"

this made you cringe slightly, but you brush it off, telling yourself to stop being rude and go back to watching the clip.

karl giggles even more, turning red, and says, embarrassed "i went into the café again and we made eye contact immediately- i was so embarrassed i didnt know what to say so i just ordered and chucked in a flirt and they went bright red and i got all embarrassed- it was nice seeing them again though" karl got through the whole sentence blushing insanely, and suddenly the clip cut off, going back to the beginning.

closing the application, your brain starts going at 100 miles a minute. his chat was going so fast- how popular was he? was that normal? who was the dude in the background?

before your thoughts could grt too overwhelming- you see another message from deb.
