Chapter 6: First Collaboration

I'm getting nervous.

Karara11: I hope everything goes smoothly...

Notpopularmmos: Don't inconvenience Kuroneko-san.

H30delirius: Go, Yui-chan!

Terrorised: Uaaa~ This is the first collaboration stream of the second gen right? I’m looking forward to it~

Megalad: What's starting, exactly?

"Hm? It’s a Q&A!."

“Yes! As announced today, it's a collaborative Q&A with my new friend! Kuroneko-san!

"....Kuroneko-san? Hello~"

Skydoesnothing: Oops.

Msbeast: Is Kuroneko-san feeling shy?

I feel awful. I feel nauseous. I'm pale all over. I stared at the call screen dumbfounded, my mouth opening and closing like a fish. A stream with so many people? …. It's impossible...

"What's going on? The call is connected, but... Is my microphone malfunctioning?"

Todele: Is it a broadcast accident?

H30delirious: Accidents are common at Kuroneko-san's place.

Anothy: But this is the first microphone accident, right?

Gradually, the comments filled with voices of concern from Yui-chan's fans and demands from Kuroneko-san's fans to hurry up. Ah, even though I debuted only a few days ago, my fans seem to have a good understanding of how to treat me. They must be recalling the scene of my first livestream in their heads. In that case, I have no choice but to do it...

"Go-g-good evening..."

"Kuroneko-san!? I think your mic is broken! I can barely hear your voice!”

Wasdfe: No, no, Yui-chan, you made a mistake, Kuroneko-san's voice has always been this tiny.

Kraiff: And she's short to boot.

Russianwomble: Above all, she's flat-chested.

Ah!

"Who's calling me a flat-chested, penniless, trash mental-comm-shy loser!?"

There are good and bad things you can say, you know!?

"Yes! So, today, I'm collaborating with Kuroneko-san. Please give her a round of applause everyone~!"

"Um, um, thank you very much."

"Kuroneko-san, it's too dark—raise it up a bit."

Th-this girl. She was calling herself socially awkward just the other day, but there's no doubt she’s handling this smoothly and isn't an amateur at all! She must have been a pro in her previous life!

"Well, actually, I was the one who reached out to kuroneko-san for this collaboration. I've been wanting to collaborate with you since I first saw your debut stream."

"What!?"

"Because, during everyone's nervous debut streams, there's no way a newcomer would do something like that!"

"That... like that..."

Cue script leakage. Forced 15-minute ending. Ignoring character settings. Seeking praise.

Wait, why am I still able to continue as a virtual YouTuber...?

"When I saw that clip, I was thinking, I was absolutely sure that collaborating with this girl would be fun!"

"T-thank you?"

Hussnd: Praise overload, lol

Terrorised: Throwing water balloons about to burst is fun, you know

Liliana: ↑ That's too much, lol

Sharen: But Kuroneko-san seems even quieter than usual, is she okay?

Tmnrtn3: This little kitten is too socially awkward to do a collaboration…

"So, shall we move on to the Q&A part right away?"

With those words, Natsunami Yui switched the screen. It seems she had sorted out the Q&A questions in advance, but she hadn't shared the content with me. In other words, I'm facing an extremely difficult mission without a clear script, relying on Natsunami Yui's ad-libs in this live combat situation.

Is this going too far with a challenge run just because it's my second life?

"Alright! First question! 'Kuroneko-san and Yui-chan, good morning, good afternoon, and good evening. For this collaboration, I'd like you to share your honest first impressions of each other!' they say. As I mentioned earlier, I thought you were a cute and fun-looking kid. What about you, Kuroneko-san?"

"Uh, well... First impression. First impression..."

During the group call, I was quietly lurking on the sidelines, so I barely remember what anyone said. And during my debut, I was getting scolded by my manager, so I missed her stream entirely. In other words, this recent group call is my first real interaction with her.

In that case...

"Brown hair, big boobs, a sunny personality..."

"Huh?"

Alandol11: Uh-oh

Bigsnoopg: Kuroneko-san! Stop blurting out your thoughts during the collaboration!

H30delirious: Is there even a filter in her head?

Natsunami Yui is a high school girl with chestnut hair tied in a side ponytail. Unlike me, she's rocking a fashionable, sexy look, wearing her uniform in a way that emphasizes her cleavage. It's safe to say that this appearance is one of the reasons why I find it hard to approach Yui-san. I bet around summer, she'll get a new illustration with a tan and a sideways peace sign from the management.

"Um, um, shall we move on to the next question?"

aaronshoaf4644: Wow, in just three lines, Yui-chan lost all her momentum

JazziJaz30: Kuroneko-san not thinking at all, huh?

daiana47: Why are they fighting during a collaboration?

Darkdaddydirty437: Sunny Personality vs. Introvert

"Next question for our high school girls! Please honestly tell us your preferred type of guy! There have been a lot of questions like this today. I guess we're curious about love because you two are like a pair of pretty high school girls, right!?"

mrnonsense1031: I'm curious!

alexanderkuptsov6117: What if it's me?

geebean9091: ↑Don't lose hope

aer71367: They haven't said anything yet!?

"Well, I personally like dependable guys. Someone who would come to my rescue right away if I were in trouble! And it's even better if they don't expect anything in return!"

miasargent4728: She's being unreal at the end~

anxia-tea5846: Sounds realistic enough

RoganBits: I wonder if I have a chance

"What about you, Kuroneko-san?"

"Uh, well, I don't really like guys..."

Great_Olaf5: What!?

rebeccalambert3240: Did I hear that right?

ramonalavigne8953: A shocking confession

I sometimes forget, but I used to be a man. It's been over a decade since I started living as a woman, so I hardly have any male consciousness left, and I've long stopped feeling uncomfortable about being a woman. However, those deeply ingrained feelings don't disappear easily, and there are remnants of my male identity here and there. At least, for the current me, not being able to see men as romantic interests is one of those remnants.

But then again, the question of whether I see women as romantic interests is also a tricky one, since I feel nothing when looking at the naked figure of my female classmate when I was changing my clothes with them for the swimming lesson….

"Um, well... hmm, what should I say?"

genozuzek7401: Yui-can is really struggling

RetirededKat: She might have picked the wrong collaboration partner...

Even though I've been recently called a "klutz," I can still see that I'm the one responsible for this awkward atmosphere in the broadcast. I may wear myself out mentally when engaging in conversations with people, but I overdid the conversation being too focused on the other person. This is a broadcast everyone was looking forward to, so I should be stretching out the talk more, making it engaging and exciting.

"Um, um! The weather today was nice, right?"

"Yeah, uh, yeah, it was."

End of conversation.

JMcAfreak: Don't use the weather as a conversation starter, ever!

LickyPocket: Kuroneko-san did try to engage in conversation, at the very least

hokage102364: It's a small step for mankind, but a big leap for Kuroneko-san

jeremiahvires7864: Mr. Armstrong must be watching too

"All right! Let's move on to the next one. ‘This is my first Q&A, please forgive me if I sound offensive. Do any of you have someone you admire in the first gen?” There have been quite a few questions about our seniors, huh? But if we say we admire them, won't they wonder why we didn't mention any names? Is it okay?"

joao_vitor_16.20_bb: It's fine

BlackwaterPMC: Don't worry about it

"Hmm, well, if we're talking about admiration, I'd say I admire Kirin-senpai. She's always so energetic and a diligent honor student! Even among the quirky first-gen members, she stands out as a responsible one! I really look up to her."

Kirin Komemiya.

In a way, she's the senior who led me into this world. She's a prominent figure among the first-year students and is often involved in announcements and events, but she's not the leader, which is a bit of a disadvantage.

Now that I think about it, Yui-san seems to resemble Kirin-senpai in some ways.

"I... I'm interested in Matsuri-senpai."

"Matsuri-senpai is cool, right? She's like a cool and popular girl!"

eclipxing: Come to think of it, Matsuri-chan mentioned being interested in Kuroneko

BabyylonTrack: Ah, from the previous broadcast

"What!? I was so nervous during the last broadcast that I couldn't watch it. That's too much, nya."

laurasia0009: They sound all lovey-dovey!

Eli-ix6yt: Don't use that flirtatious tone

familyrussell2105: Is it a cat fight?

Matsuri Seria: *Stare*

personone1382: Matsuri-chan!?

sugawarasfist7511: She's here!

"And there you have it, Matsuri-senpai has graced us with her presence!"

"Oh, I forgot to put on the Spanner."

Matsuri Seria ✓: Let's collab next time, Kuroneko

"Whaaat!?"

"Senpai!? But this is my broadcast, you know!?"

Matsuri Seria ✓: You should try to do a collab with Kirin

And then Matsuri-senpai said what she wanted and left. I've seen this during broadcasts, but she's completely her own person. As for this collaboration matter, it feels too sudden, and I'm starting to doubt if it's just lip service.

"Well, let's regroup and move on to the next one! It's probably the last question for today. 'Arutema! (Greetings) I always enjoy your broadcasts. Especially two days ago, Yui-chan's stream ending in a calm 40 minutes with no mountains or falls was surprisingly entertaining. Now, our second-gen debutants, you guys are shining brightly, but if you were to collaborate next, who would you like to collaborate with? We'll keep supporting you, so keep up the good work!' Something like that. Sorry for the uneventful stream! We'll aim for first place in the next ones!"

memories-of-nobody: The future is hell

gamigatan: That one ended so easily, and it was funny

claraskh: It turned out to be a viewer-participation race, not a durability test

"All right! So, about the next collaboration. Well, there are seven second-gen streamer, so... Remaining options are Lees El Lycelitt, Fure Ri, Nagu Eika, Izayoi Sakuraka, and Gami Katana. Wow, everyone has quite the quirks, huh?"

"Gami Katana... that name's amazing..."

Hahahahah: Could it be that these two are the normal ones?

Varossgaming: Is Kuroneko a streamer in the normaller side?

Msbeast: At least Yui-chan seems normal, right!?

H30 Delirious: Yui-chan is the voice of reason amongst them two

"Ah, thank you, haha. Yeah, I guess I'm the voice of reason."

Dry laughter.

"If I had to choose someone for the next collaboration... Well, Lees-san might be the safe- I mean, fun choice."

karakan: Like Minesweeper

artia119: I see

"As for me, I don't really... um..."

"Hmm?"

"Uh, well... Toba Otoba-san, maybe?"

Toba-san is the quietest among them.

Whether we get along or not is something that I do not know of, the reason is that it seems like we won't have to be too considerate of each other.

As we chatted, an hour had passed since the broadcast started. It was about time to end it, and I doubted anyone would complain.

"All right! Well, it's about time to call it a day."

"Yeah!"

"Should we extend it for another hour?"

"Sorry, but I refuse."

Natsunami Yui, with a sigh of relief, made a few announcements and directed the conversation toward me. But, well, there were no announcements to make...

"Oh, um, yeah. So, I think that's about it. Please subscribe to the channel, turn on notifications, give a thumbs up, and follow us on Twitter! You can find Kuroneko's channel in the description too, so check it out! Bye-bye!"

"Goodbye-nya."
