[Streamer, I’ve been camping in your live room for two hours already—you’re so slow!]

[Only two hours? I haven’t closed your stream since you went off-air yesterday!]

[Yesterday? I was waiting here before Yali-chan even made her account!]

[?]

[???]

[You’re the person behind the avatar, right? Time to doxx you!]

Barely minutes into the stream, familiar IDs were already running wild in the danmaku zone. Lin Lin forced an awkward smile and mentally sorted through them.

Wait…

How could someone wait *before* the account existed?

Was that even possible?

Uh…

I don’t even remember creating this account—it was set up by the system, hello!

Well… at least she felt the danmaku’s enthusiasm!

(Exaggerated enthusiasm, sure.)

But for a rookie streamer like Lin Lin, even a few boastful comments felt genuinely uplifting.

Nice! Looks like she already had hardcore fans.

Mm-hmm, keep it up—maybe snag a few *gachi*-level loyalists next.

Lin Lin brushed her bangs aside, pondering today’s content—only to freeze.

The little vampire girl on-screen mimicked her gesture.

Danmaku erupted:

[HOLY SHIT. Is the streamer literally a 2D-dimensional being?!]

[If she copies hair-brushing… can she lift her skirt with a disgusted face too?]

[Pervert above! Streamer, please stomp me HARD.]

[This one’s operating on another level.]

[WatchingVIsDog: What software? The model’s insane…]

Oh? Even Bro Gou showed up.

Amid the troll carnival, his comment stood out—everyone else was pure chaos. How could she reply seriously?

Might as well answer Bro Gou. Ignoring danmaku entirely looked bad.

…Should she recruit him as her official "sensible commenter"? *cough* His questions were always the only sane ones.

Clearing her throat with a smile, she chirped:

"Hehe~ Custom software and models! Mimics nearly any gesture—just a tiny lag. Not full-body mocap, so not *perfect* 3D, but… haha~"

(She was totally bluffing. The system handled everything. Absurd? Totally reasonable.)

Danmaku fired back:

[Feels BETTER than full mocap… minus the lag.]

[Streamer’s hiding her dimension. Initiate dimensional reduction!]

[Reduce further? She’ll collapse into 1D!]

[Danmaku text *is* 1D. "Attacking" her across dimensions? Overthinking it lol.]

…Wait.

Since when did danmaku turn into sci-fi debate club? Y’all got Liu Cixin ambitions or what?!

Can we *please* pivot back?

*Cough*…

Nope. This is *my* stream!

Time to take control.

"*Ahem…*" She coughed lightly. "What to stream today? Oh! I haven’t checked your DMs yet~"

After a pause: "Let’s read them LIVE! See what ‘masterpieces’ you sent me!"

Danmaku instantly flooded:

[NOOOO!]

[Don’t read live—it’s social suicide!]

[Blur my name pleeease—waaah!]

[SHOCKING: Rookie streamer exposing DMs on Day 2? Cocky much.]

[Yamete!]

Huh?

Lin Lin’s lips twitched. *Wow.* Such resistance?

…Which only made her suspicious.

What *exactly* did you send that’s so embarrassing to read… but not to send?

Weirdos. Treating her like entertainment.

Newsflash: She’s not your digital pet!

…Though honestly? She was kinda curious now. What *did* these netizens send?

She rubbed her hands, ready to open the backend—then glanced at the nonstop danmaku scroll.

…How many DMs *were* there?

Did every single follower send one?!

What *is* her fanbase made of?!

She *wanted* to read them… but losing followers? Unacceptable. Popularity points mattered.

Blurring live was messy…

Wait.

*Lightbulb.*

Create a TXT file. Black-screen the backend. Copy filtered DMs into the file. Stream *only* the TXT window.

No names. No avatars. Pure content.

…Perfect.

Adjusting her collar, she smiled slightly at the camera:

"Little Sunflower Mom’s Classroom is now in session~"

"If danmaku life feels stuck, maybe you’re feeling like a little mouse… *just kidding!* Stay sunny instead!"

"Alright~ Time to read DMs!

(…After filtering. Obviously.)

Let’s pick the relatable ones—life struggles! Danmaku, help advise!

Who’s better at emotional support: Zhihu, Tieba, or *this* stream?

…*Literally* support, mind you."

Scrolling, she muttered:

"Please don’t be creepy pics… I’ll scream. And block you. *Hard.*"

Ugh—

First DM:

[Yali-chan smells so nice and feels so soft~]

Fake. Next!

[Yali-chan smells so nice and feels so soft~]

NEXT!!!

[Yali-chan smells so nice and feels so soft~]

…

Am I pork floss bread or something?

*Sigh.* Not one normal person…?

Just as frustration peaked—

A familiar ID flashed.

Him again.

Bro Gou.
