FanTube - Getting Closer

Someone knows

     Fans p.o.v

     I have been thinking a lot about my problem with confidence. I go to my blog page and spill all about my problem with liking Testube. All I saw were "DO It!!! Tell her!!!!" so I clicked off my phone and went to look for Lightbulb again. After searching awhile I see her sitting under the same tree as before, when I had first talked to her after the elimination. As i'm walking over to her, I glance at the picture frame she was holding. She had covered it from me before, but now as I look over her shoulder, I see vibrant colors of yellow and other shades all mixing into one picture of her? When I glance at the bottom of the frame I see a neat signature, "Paintbrush". I suddenly feel a lot of pity for her rush into me. I back away and pretend I had just arrived.

      "Hey! Lightbulb!"

     "Oh!" she sets the picture face down on the grass "What's up!!"

     "I kinda just wanted to talk....ya know"

      "Well, okay!!"

     We were just about to start talking when Knife runs up to us.

     "Fan....you....follow me"

     I didn't know why he was asking me, but he had a really concerned look on his face, so I followed like he asked. Once we got to the edge of crappy cliff, he stopped.

     "Fan, do you know anyone by the name of OIPB?" Knife says

     "umm, no, why?"

     "Because they are spreading info about you I'm pretty sure you don't want to be spilled"

    "What!!"

     "Calm down, this morning I started getting notifications about something spreading, and when I looked, it was stuff about you.....liking Testube"

     My face starts to burn not only from embarrassment, but from rage. When I look at Knife though, he seems genuinely concerned for me. Maybe he does have a good heart.

     "W-we need to find out who did this......do you know if Testube knows?"

     "Why would I Know! I just saw that and thought it would be better for you to know.."

     "Ok......thanks then"

     Knife walks away and I rush to Testubes lab.

     "Oh, Fan I was just looking for you. Everyone is telling me to check your blog for some reason?"

     "OH!! TESTUBE PLEASE DON'T LOOK AT IT!!! I-uhhhhhh just posted something really embarrassing and they wanted to embarrass me more...yea"  Good save Fan. I mentally congratulate myself for the quick thinking.

     "Oh, that's horrible! Are you able to stop it? I could try to hack it down if--"

     "NO!! It's ummm, sorry, it's ok, I can stop it" I scratch my head. "I can" 

     "Well, if you say so, I wont look at it if you don't want me to" She flashes.

     I turn around and was about to leave when Testube grabs my shoulder.

     "hey Fan?"

     "Yea?"

     "Could I use you for a quick experiment?"

      "um, sure, what is it?"

      "ok, i'll show you, come here!"

     She has an exited look on her face as she leads me to a room with with some type of machine in the center on a table. She starts ranting about the molecular coding, once she remembers I couldn't understand, she quickly tells me in a simpler way, that it was a lie detector.

     "Well- it's the beginning of one! All it can do right now is read patterns in sweat and heart rate, but by the time i finish it, it will be able to state a lie or truth 100% accurately!"

     I start to sweat "so why do you need to test it on me?"

     "because it's too hard to control it as well as have myself hooked up. So I need to hook it up to you so I can see if it's showing accurate data"

     "O-ok"

      She attaches wires to my head and hands, after a second I could see her sigh then look back at me.

     "F-fan...could you t-take off y-your shirt?" Her whole face was a vibrant red, and so was mine.

     "H-huh!! W-why!!" I snap back in shock. She looks away.

     "I need to put some of the w-wires on your chest..." I now mentally punch myself for freaking out the way I did.

     "O-oh..y-yea, u-ummm..ok" I don't even look good! I have to take off my shirt in front of her. I know it's for an experiment but--ugggghhh

     I grab the hems of my red t-shirt, and slowly pull it over my head. When I look up, Testube is just.....staring? I blush and look away from her. She quickly shakes her head. After placing the wires on my chest she turns a few dials, then looks back at me.

     "Ok Fan, I need you to answer some questions! This will show me if the particles are accurate to the recorded graph"

      It seems her science rant melted away the embarrassment. But when she talks to me, her gaze flickers to my chest for a split second, and she becomes a blushing mess again. I guess she just has never been in the presents of a shirtless guy before? yea...that's why. Dang it, I had hope for a second, stupid me.

     "So..Fan, are you a male?"

     "yep, pretty sure" I give a grin.

     "Ok, do you have red hair?"

     "mhmm, i do"

     "do you L-- I MEAn umm have you ever been in a lab!!"

    " yea!"

     She gives a sigh. "ok, it looks like this machine is pretty accurate! Thanks Fan"

     "No problem"

     We both go to chill on the couch and binge some anime. Though, my mind was more focused on trying to find out who the heck OIPB is. I guess I could start searching for clues on their social media. I click on the link to OIPB, it brings me to a page full of rants about how annoying people they know are. I continue to scroll through, I find and interesting post, it reads "My boyfriend got me white roses today-this just proves he is the girl of the relationship". Ok, so this person is bi or gay, got one piece of info. I keep scrolling and only find posts of small doodles and random quotes. I found a post with a tag reading "inanimate insanity contestant", well, I know them then. With all my knowledge on ii this should be easier. Well, I better keep searching.

   Im so sorry this is late, but i got a new main storyline problem!! Can anyone guess who OIPB is? -
