Everyone’s talking about the boyfriend comment and the kayak announcement from a few hours ago.
Everything clicks into place. Only then did the viewers start typing in shock as they grasped the truth.
[What what what what what?]
[Boyfriend? Boyfriend? Boyfriend? Boyfriend? Boyfriend? Boyfriend?]
[Isn’t Christmas… lonely…? Isn’t Christmas… lonely?]
[Older sister ㅠㅠ Please marry me!]
[Santa Kayak is so pretty!!!]
[The shoulder line is too sexy….]
[Looking at this makes me strongly feel that Camilla needs a Santa outfit skin too.]
[Did you prepare a costume for the event? Truly the heavenly female streamer.]
[You bad guys who doubted this host….]
[For real, Kayak is always thinking about the viewers.]
[Ah, lol, was that boyfriend the boyfriend?]
[How many boyfriends do you have?]
[If I date just one for 10 seconds, the sun will rise.]
[It was a surprise event!]
[Mom, I’m on a date with my girlfriend, hehe!]
[‘The Proper Attitude of a Female Streamer’]
[This is almost a no-singles vow, lol.]
[Uh… Kayak’s head is broken… now I don’t know anything except Kayak….]
[Seriously, they are determined to serve us.]
[Kayak’s true sincerity mode… can’t stop this.]
[Happy life for viewers ㄷㄷㄷㄷ]
<<The person wiping Kayak's feet donated 10,000 won!> -Baby, you should have at least given me a heads up if you prepared something like this~ I was really surprised. Kayak's face twisted in dismay. As if cradled in a hug, the arms that were opened towards the camera returned to a folded position. “Ow. I can’t do this. Yeah. Let’s go back to normal. We've had enough fun, right?" [What are you saying, our cutie?] [Baby, hehe, the date is too short.] [So what's this announcement and this Santa outfit?] "Well, you see…." * To unveil the behind-the-scenes story, this wasn’t the plan from the start. The incident traces back to a few hours ago when I was deep into the gallery after finishing my stream on Christmas Eve. I had been broadcasting on Twitch and watching others, but I had never really delved that deeply into the Abyss territory. I was learning for the first time the kind of atmosphere Twitch had during Christmas. There were quite interesting posts. Most were about women, and just looking at them, I felt a thick, sticky darkness, which was quite unsettling. The sticky darkness felt quite unusual. Amidst this, seeing my name mentioned made me briefly ponder whether I am just a game-streaming streamer or a female streamer—questions about my broadcasting identity floated through my mind. Then an interesting thought crossed my mind. At least it seems they view me not just as a pure game streamer but also as a female streamer, so how about I do something special for Christmas, like a surprise event? Coincidentally, it was also the 200th day since I properly started broadcasting, so it would be nice to celebrate that too. It was a somewhat radical idea, but I didn’t dwell on it for long. This was one of the changes that had come upon me since becoming like this. Whether it’s a strength or a weakness, I couldn’t say, but what I did gain was a knack for execution. In conclusion, the reaction was explosive. Even more than I had imagined. Although I had deliberately thrown in some logs, the flames were intense, as if a great fire had broken out. I wondered if I actually had a lover and if such a response would have happened. I kept checking the community. The stronger-than-expected reactions had me contemplating whether I should start the broadcast sooner. Ultimately, I went live as planned two hours later, but it was tougher for me to wait, killing time. Since I wanted to do this event properly, I put on a Santa suit and prepared some suitable lines. I never imagined that the Santa suit I impulsively bought would be used like this, but hey, good things are good, right? It’s much better to create a year-end atmosphere together rather than just trying it on alone. From the setup to the development and then the conclusion. I informed the viewers about the incident's outline. [So, it was a prank?] [Is the wait a loyalty test?] [For real lol, those with low loyalty already dropped out] [Ant Tickling level is top-notch;] [I did it because it seemed fun… Hmm… ] [Hey, sis, I was really surprised by the notice] [A prank that plays with the viewers' hearts… ] [Controversial/A prank] [Isn’t this viewer deception?] “Oh, come on, deception? It’s a surprise event. If your lover does an event like this, why would you get mad and say it’s a prank?” At the mere mention of the word "lover," the chat exploded with reactions. Along with the chattering like before, countless lines started to pop up that made me cringe just by looking at them. The chat window reacting as if it had seen a ghost the moment words were pulled out. A flood of cringeworthy comments, including the usual self-indulgent chatter, began to fill the screen. This is exactly why I didn't want to pull it out. But the concept today is a daily girlfriend, so it couldn't be helped. "Anyway, I have something prepared for you all as your girlfriend today." I moved the mouse to switch the screen. My upper body and overall appearance were now fully visible on one side, while the computer screen took center stage. The camera feed shrank down to a square size, occupying a corner of the broadcast. Viewers let out disappointed sounds at the reduced camera view. "I wish the game screen and camera size were swapped... What nonsense are you talking? I'm the one who sees it often anyway. What I’m trying to do can only happen during Christmas.” What on earth could I be trying to do? Following my words, the viewers’ questions flooded in. Honestly, it wasn't anything extraordinary or special. Just something other streamers might have pulled out during Christmas. - My girlfriend is too cute! Heart-pounding White Christmas operation! [Visual novel...?] [I thought it was something big, but it's a visual novel?] [You might as well do a cooking broadcast.] [Can we just chat instead?] [For real, watching the host's face while chatting would be a million times more fun.] "No way, no way. Today, I'm going to teach you all how to date your girlfriend, okay? Through this visual novel, we’ll understand the woman’s heart and learn how to treat a girlfriend, so next year, let’s celebrate Christmas not as singles, but as a couple." [But you’re a girlfriend, right?] [What kind of girlfriend teaches another girl how to date? LOL.] [Host, do you have a preference for that?] [Whoa.] [W-what, what, what?] [tag: netorare] [Kayak's secret preference...] Honestly, they don't even realize my concern for the viewers. Shaking my head at the nonsense from the viewers, I continued. "I'm your daily girlfriend, you know? I can’t keep putting up with this forever, and you guys need to learn how to date too. What kind of streamer does that, seriously?" * - Sorry... you're just not my type. - Senior, isn't that a bit sudden? Were we ever that close? - Kayak, you’re... a good friend. But as a boyfriend... it just doesn't feel right. "Hey, friend. But it doesn't feel like... a boyfriend." "Oh dear...?" "[Wasn't this a dating sim攻略 broadcast??]" "[Epic Fail!]" "[I'm more frustrated just watching it, lol.]" "[Are you doing this on purpose?]" "[How can you choose options like this?]" "[Seriously, just don't be greedy and focus on one person.]" "[You said you're not a virgin, but you've dated before.]" "[Those who rely on their looks tend to mess up like this, right?]" "[In the real world, I'm an alpha female, but in this world, I can't even attract a girl? Am I a loser?]" "[Sister, ㅠㅠ I'm a little... ]" "There are three heroines in 'My Girlfriend is Too Cute! Thump Thump White Christmas Operation!'" "A quiet and pure upperclassman, a cheerful and lively underclassman, and a childhood friend in the same class." "Honestly, I may have underestimated it. How hard can a dating sim really be?" "I thought it would be easy as long as I picked the right choices, so I skimmed through some boring texts and raised affection by giving various gifts." "But then, as the story progressed and it was time to confess, I got rejected by all three." "Seriously, these girls are really picky… I thought I did enough to date them!" "[This game is originally hard.]" "[Would the teacher go out with that kind of effort?]" "[What, you barely did anything and want to date, lol.]" "[You said you’d teach me how to date….]" "[I've been single for 28 years, and I think I’m doing better seriously.]" "[Can we treat this as a lesson learned?]" "My plan to teach the viewers dating skills through the dating sim and make them couples by next Christmas completely fell apart from the start." "Should I do this again or not? I feel like I could do better if I tried again." "While I was briefly lost in thought." "[Kayak's Scrub at 10,000 won donated!]”
“—Teacher, it’s past 12, it’s Christmas now!”
“Oh.”
“Checking the donation’s words, I saw it was 12:01. Christmas Eve had slipped away, and it was now Christmas Day.”
“Looking out the window, beautiful white snowflakes were falling.”
“Staring blankly at the pretty snow piling on the ground, I softly muttered.”
“…Merry Christmas.”
“Christmas with everyone was slowly passing by.”
