Shadow-Dancer: New Friends, New Chances to Help

First YouTube video

*June 15, 2017*

(Y/n) POV
Ob and I went into Jack's new recording office. He had just finished recording and was sending the video to Robin, his editor.

"Hey, Jack," I said.

"Hey, (Y/n). What can I help you with?"

Unfortunately, I failed to say what was on my mind, but Ob was able to do it for me.

"(Y/n) and I have decided that we'd like to start our own YouTube gaming channel," she explained.

"That's awesome!" Jack said. "In fact, I was just about to go to the store, so let's go get what you two need. Also, what kind of content do you plan on doing on that channel?"

"We were thinking of primarily focusing on Minecraft," Ob said.

"Minecraft, eh? I hear it's been getting quite a fanbase lately," he said.

"Well, Ob and I have been fans of the game since the days of Pre-Classic. It's really insane when you think about how far the game has gotten since then," I said.

Ob's POV
(Y/n) and I had just finished putting together our recording setup, and decided that our gaming channel would primarily be focused on Minecraft, though we were (and still are) open to playing other games.

"So what do you think our first video should be?" (Y/n) asked.

"I think we should do an introductory video," I said. "You know, tell everyone what this channel is going to be like."

"That's a great idea!" (Y/n) said as she set the camera to record. We had already figured out an intro and outro. I set my eyes to look like (Y/n)'s.

"Hey, all you lovely shadows! I'm (Y/n)!" she said.

"And I'm Obsidian!" I said.

"And we're ShadowDancer!" we say together.

"So, first things first, you guys can call me Ob if you'd like," I said.

"Our channel will be primarily focused on Minecraft, though we will also branch out to other games as well," (Y/n) said. "Also, Robin, Jack's editor, has agreed to be our editor."

"Before we go, I'm going to confirm that I am very much real," I said. "I'm being completely, 100% honest with you. I don't want to pull any wool over your eyes." I decided to show my true eyes to the camera, revealing the glorious black orbs with glowing (f/c) irises. My irises were set to glow at a kind, gentle tone. I wanted people to trust me. (In fact, I still do.)

Well, you are very trustworthy, Ob.

That I can agree with, (Y/n).

"Unfortunately, that is all the time we have for this video," (Y/n) began our outro.

"As always, don't be afraid to embrace the shadows and like this video. Also, while you're at it, why not subscribe and hit the notification bell so that you won't miss a single update? See you guys later." I ended the recording and sent it to Robin for editing and uploading. At this point in time, (Y/n) and I had begun to listen to Alan Walker's music and had become huge fans, so we decided to use "Spectre" (the song up top) for our intro and outro.

As soon as the video was uploaded, (Y/n) shared it with our friends, and it wasn't long before it got some responses. (F/n) and (O/f/n) both said that they trust me, and Alex said that she's glad I decided to be honest with our viewers. As for Lily, she congratulated us on taking this big step. Turq merely responded to the video by texting me a bunch of heart-eye emojis, causing me to blush furiously.

(A/N: I know that I have already used "Spectre" by Alan Walker in chapter 1 of "Shadow-Dancer: Return of an Old Foe", but I put it in this chapter because (Y/n) and Ob have always used it in their intro and outro.)
