it started out with a vid, how did it end up like this? jschlatt x oc (kinda)

quick note- we really appreciate stars, thank you :)

I set down my coffee and plop into my comfy chair. I guess it's time to get back to coding, well actually back to brainstorming ideas for coding projects. I have none, and it's starting to become a problem.

I kick off my table and spin around in my chair thinking about my plans for the day. I guess I need to stream, I thought to myself whilst slowing down and grabbing my cup of coffee.

Recently my streams have been picking up some new viewers due to the raids I've been getting from larger streamers. It's starting to push my coded Minecraft videos out past my normal viewers, which has been a big help to get some new fans.

I even got invited to join a dating show on Twitch, which was honestly one of the weirder experiences I've had on this platform.

Lifting my head I hear the distinct sounds of my roommate yelling at something. Sighing, I begrudgingly hoist myself out of my chair and walk down the hall.

She seems to have quieted down when I get to her door, but I open it and say hi. I'm greeted by my ginger best friend, Juliet, who is staring at her monitor, upset over the fact that a Stardew Valley character didn't want to dance with her.

"Juliet what the hell," I ask her, whilst exasperated that she is upset over the fact that a video game was rude.

"I gave Haley everything that chat said I should, and she told me 'Ew no!' when I asked her to dance, chat told me she was a nice character-"

"Juliet, " I start to say while holding back my laughter, "she is like the meanest character at the start," I finish with a hand clasped over my face to refrain from laughing at her.

"CHAT WHAT THE HELL!" She starts to yell and laugh at her viewers.

"Well, I guess that was because some people feel the need to ruin my love life in Stardew!" Juliet sighs, resting her face in her hands dramatically.

"Juliet, I'm gonna go and make a bag of popcorn, want any?" I ask whilst turning back towards her doorway.

"No thanks, I'm just way too distraught about my failed love life right now." She replies, obviously still pulling the sad act for chat.

"Suit yourself," I say shrugging as I leave, closing the door.

"Are you kidding me-?!" I complain as the respawn button pops up on my screen. "I had 75 levels!" I say as I give up all hopes of ever getting those back, "Not even to mention that I have to speedrun back to those chunks before everything despawns..."

Looking over to my chat I notice quite a few of them taunting me, "Oh be quiet, I didn't see the cliff!" I snap back, glancing over to my 2nd monitor I notice I'm just over the two-hour mark.

"I have no motivation anymore," I sigh to chat, leaning back in my seat. "I've also been streaming long enough, so I'm gonna call it a day. See you losers later." I say before hitting the end stream button and leaving my desk.

Grabbing my cup of coffee I sigh and unlock my phone, opening up my Twitter mentions.

Lunch club @ lunchclub

Juliet @romeoisahomo

I know a great coder who works on minecraft projects all the time :)) @st4rryn1ght

~ back to real life not twitter~

I notice I have a dm from the LunchClub account but I choose to ignore it, leaving my desk to instead talk with Juliet.

"Juliet. You did not tell these mystery people that I agreed to this." I say taking a deep breath of air and walking into her room. I love my best friend... just not as much as normal right now.

She laughs and says "um, yes I did?"

In her defense I have been talking about how I need to find a new project and ideally get paid well... honestly she did exactly what I would've so I don't think I can be upset.

"Ok fine," I start, "but who even are these people that I am now working on code for and why did you volunteer me for this?" I sigh whilst rubbing my temples and laying down on her bed.

"Well they are some friends that recently formed a youtube channel together and it's called Lunch Club," Juliet says whilst fidgeting with her curly hair, "it just seems like easy money to be honest. It's a win-win situation!" she says whilst throwing herself back onto the bed as well causing us to both be staring at her fan going in circles.

"Plus a few of them are pretty cute....!" She says doing the little leg kick thing at the edge of the bed.

I've learned to ignore her mentions of people being cute, she seems to find people attractive constantly so honestly it's 50/50 if they are good-looking.

Right about now, it's starting to set in what Juliet signed me up for... so twisting around I grab her fluffiest pillow and enact my revenge in one of the best possible ways (that doesn't involve some form of arson or light murder) and hit her square on the head with the pillow.

Our little pillow fight lasted quite a while, or at least until we got tired of it and decided to order some pizza.

As I sit down to eat my slice I open up the dm from Lunchclub,

~TWITTER DMS~
