"It's about time to end the stream. I'll see you guys for my next kill." I wink at the camera, double checking the comments in the chat.

'We'll miss you!'
'Don't do anything too dangerous ;)'
'I'll be waiting (:'

I smile a little.

"I'll miss you guys too. Stay safe!" I click end. That was a little exhausting. I start closing gaming applications as someone knocks on the door. "Come in?" I reach for a desk drawer, in case I need a knife.

"Hi... I'm Akabane, big fan." A red head slips into my room, waiting by the door.

"How did you get my address?" I thought our room numbers were confidential.

"I actually saw you walk in." He steps into the light, a little nervous looking. There is a pause as I try to study his face and him mine.

"Are you who I think you are?" I love his channel!

"That depends." He smirks, extending a hand.

"The God of death, right?! I love your gaming videos!" I take it and shake, jumping in excitement.

"O-oh," He blushes a little. "I really wanted to meet you. Maybe we could collab or something."

"Definitely!"

"Isn't it kind of weird to sit in a room with someone else talking to a camera too. I mean, I'm only used to doing this by myself." Karma, as I've learned, sets up the tripod.

"I guess it is. I've never been with anyone on a gaming video." I giggle, getting the applications ready.

"So we're in the same boat?" He chuckles, bumping my shoulder. I flinch a little, instincts telling me to get a weapon. "Did I hurt you?!" He faces me, entirely serious.

"What? No! I'm... uh... sorry. I really should cool it on the horror games I guess." I play it off with a giggle.

"I guess you should." He smiles, moving onto other equipment.

"So the cameras are recording?"

"Yes."

"And the screen is being recorded."

"Mhm."

"Everything's covered?"

"Yes! C'mon, where's that fearless blueberry I always see on screen? Lets start." Blueberry? Is that what they're calling me now?

"What's with the nickname?"

"I don't know. It suits you. Your hair is brighter in person." He holds a few strands twirling them in his fingers, dazing off. Holy shit! My celebrity crush is playing with my hair!

"Are you first player or second player." I keep from stuttering by taking a controller.

"Whichever one is red." He smiles.

"I'll be first then." I show him his controls.

"How do we even start this?" He looks up at the camera.
