Oh god it was Friday. The last Friday of the month, and frankly the worst one of the month too. 1010 always did streams on the last Friday where they would open what fanmail they got throughout the month. "Fanmail Friday" as they called it. Pretty much just a few hours of them opening their fanmail and reacting to it
It sure sucked if you never got any at all.
Eloni just put on his best smile as he got ready for the stream. You're never fully dressed without one after all! His robotic heart skipped a beat as he imagined what getting his first fan letter could be like! He would probably faint at the surprise more than anything.
He brushed his hair, which was really a fight to just not lose a brush halfway through. Curly hair sucks, man. And afterwards his hair bounced back up into its usual curl. He also slid on a mint sweater, as well as some shorts. He always thought sweaters were the comfiest thing to man. And he just slid on some shorts because they're usually just sitting while they open stuff. He walked over to his mirror and looked himself over one more time.
He sighed, his mind creeping in to remind him of the fact that he never got any fan mail, letters, anything. He doubted he even had any fans of his own. He just shook the thought out of his mind, his sliding smile back on. He's bound to get some fan mail this time, he has to be.
He made sure his hoop, or halo if you will, was still in place. Perfect, everything was perfect. He looked good enough for a stream, and today was going to be a good stream, yeah. It had to be, he's earned one, right? His attention was drawn from the mirror as his name was called.
He just walked from his room to the living room, the camera already set up, as well as a monitor for when they started up the live chat.
"Hey Eli! About time you got in here, c'mon-" Rin said as he motioned for him to sit by him on the couch. He just nodded and walked over, sitting beside him.
"You guys are ready early, you didn't have to wait for me did you?" Eloni questioned, hoping he didn't make them late to stream or something.
"I mean we had to wait for five seconds max, so you're fine." He said, sliding the heavy box full of mail onto the middle of the couch. Rin and Eloni were on the left of it, Haym and Purl-Hew on the right, and Zim was behind the couch as always. Just leaning onto it.
"Eli, hold still-" Zim said as he reached over the couch. Eli just went perfectly still, Zim smacking his shoulder.
"Bug?" Eloni questioned.
"Bug." Zim replied, wiping his hand off on his pants leg.
Eloni just nodded and got a bit more comfortable, leaning on the arm of the couch more.
Neon J had been waiting by the camera, just waiting for their que to start the stream.
"Ready, troops?"
"Ready!" the 5 said in unison, smiling at the unintentional sync.
"Hello! Your ideal boyfriends are back for another fanmail Friday!" The stream started without a hitch. And most of the boys got some pretty sweet, and funny, fan mail.
The first notable one was when Haym got a letter full of jokes and puns. Just him reading it about had them all cracked up, well, aside from Purl. Though, Purl did crack a smile at some of the puns.
Another memorable one was when Zim got some fingerless gloves with red trimming. He loved them to death, you could tell by the smile on his face alone when he slid them on.
Then there was a pair of novelty glasses sent to Purl, a pretty normal occurrence actually. Purl turned from the camera and slid off his usual pair, then on the novelty pair. They were little discoballs. The rest of the boys were practically cackling as he wore them for the rest of the stream. He always turned away while putting them on because the fans would go haywire if they fully saw his eyes. Hell, they do just at a glimpse anyway.
