Hailey’s Comeback Stream (Patreon)

Hailey’s social-media stardom was over almost as quickly as it began. One minute, she was the waitress everyone was talking about. The next, the algorithm had moved on — and Hailey was left chasing the attention she had just lost.

Luckily, Yazmine knows a thing or two about content creation.

In this new Evil Inc After Dark illustration, Yazmine “consoles” Hailey the only way a seasoned livestreamer can — by putting her back in front of an audience and letting the chat take over. The viewers are already demanding more, Hailey is discovering the difference between fame and engagement, and Yazmine is proving once again that she understands the platform better than anyone.

This one ties directly into the current Evil Inc storyline, where Hailey’s brief viral moment leaves her vulnerable to some very bad advice. Before Termax gets his claws into her, Yazmine offers a much more hands-on lesson in audience retention.
