”Yip-yip! Hello, my lovely little snacks~” I greeted my viewers with a playful smile that had a predatory tinge to it. My ears perked up, drawing attention to my fluffy tails swaying behind me as I leaned in toward the camera. “Oh my, look at all these lovely faces. Have you been waiting for your little fox?”
The chat was already moving faster than I could read it thanks to all the publicity from BlueLight. The stream title probably helped that. Your Favorite Little Fox Won’t Let You Sleep! It was basic, but I’d gone back and forth a lot over it over the past week. There was a surprising amount of thought that went into everything.
I couldn’t complain, though. My viewer count was rapidly spiking, no doubt thanks to all the publicity from BlueLight. It could’ve taken me months to even get one viewer had I done things organically like I was originally intending to. Instead, I had 18,000 people watching before I even started doing anything.
“Oh?” I tilted my head, and studied the mannequin head with exaggerated curiosity. It just so happened to line up with the camera thanks to Daniel setting everything up perfectly, creating the illusion that I was staring right at my viewers. “And who are you, little snack?”
My Listener-San was set up right in front of me, acting as my microphone. Honestly, the black mannequin head covered in felt was a little unsettling to look at, but its ability to transmit the sensations and sounds like I was right there with my viewers was something I fully intended to take advantage of.
“You’re looking absolutely delicious today, darling.” I leaned closer. My long, vulpine tongue slipped out. It traced the tip of the mannequins ear with a teasing flick. “I could just eat you up.”
My smile lingered as I drew back and admired my handiwork. The chat box on the side of my screen was moving so fast I could barely read it. Thankfully, Daniel had done some kind of technosorcery that pulled out comments so I could read them easier.
“Why do you look so surprised? You knew exactly what you were getting into when you came to see your favorite fox, didn’t you?” I trailed a finger along the side of the Listener-San’s jaw as I checked the chat.
| Fenrir_x_Sakura: ACTUAL CHILLS!!!
| ASMRWhen: WE’RE SO BACK
| RedPants: i was so NOT ready for tongue physics
| VTubeMe: brother above, the title is literally that she won’t let you sleep
| ScienceRocks: how is that even possible? I’m using cheap wired earbuds???
| FoxLover: Respectfully, I am looking…
| Oshi_Inbound: how do you sound even better now?
| DeadLockedIn: ASMR stream or playing the game?
I giggled softly, bringing a hand to my mouth. Two of my tails flowed up to repeat the motion. “Oh darling, are you already having trouble keeping your eyes on the screen? That’s alright. I can be gentle with you.”
| RedPants: energy drinks, pronto! If I sleep tonight, I’m not a man!
| FoxLover: No, no, keep going. I can take it.
| ScienceRocks: not even joking, the binaural positions is insane
| DeadLockedIn: you people need hobbies”Locked In, sweetheart, you’re here to see this little fox too.” I smiled sweetly at the camera. “You’ve been to both my streams so far. Does that mean you're one of my biggest fans? Aww, you could have just said so.”
| DeadLockedIn: I AM HERE FOR THE GAME
| VTubeMe: HAHAHAHA
| Oshi_Inbound: she got you bro
| FoxLover: Some’s a little tsun-tsun, eh?
I hummed softly in amusement. My tails curled around me in a fluffy self-hug. My avatar followed the movement until she was practically buried in a wave of pink fur. Haah… so cozy. I could just stay like this forever.
“Ahh, but I have to thank you. What would I do without loyal fans like you? I’d be so very lonely.” I let my ears droop pitifully, and gave the camera my best puppy eyes. My lip trembled ever so slightly. “So scawy. Just me, all alone with no one to play with. No one to talk to. No one to give sweet little Sakura head pats…”
| VTubeMe: never be alone again, lol
| Fenrir_x_Sakura: I’ll stay with you whenever you want
| NahIdWin: at times like these, I’m proud to say I don’t have a job
| NahIdWin: JUST KEEP STREAMING SAKURA
| FoxLover: PROTECT THE FOX!!!
A subscription alert chimed, and a sakura tree clad banner dropped down over the stream. My eyes practically sparkled as I got my first ever subscriber.
| FoxLover joined the Fox Den!
| FoxLover gifted 10 subs!
“Ten gifted already?” My ears shot upright. I leaned toward the camera, drawing close enough that the camera zoomed in on my eyes. “Thank you, darling. You’re spoiling me~!”
I blew a kiss to my camera. A pink heart fluttered from my avatar's lips, trailing sparkles before popping into a shower of little stars. BlueLight hired the best, and it showed in how much effort went into my avatar.
“Mwah! There’s one for you.” I smiled softly and waved my hand. “And ten little kisses for the lucky snacks you brought along with you.”
| FoxLover: SHE CALLED ME DARLING
| FoxLover: I CAN DIE HAPPY
| VTubeMe: bro really went and brought ten people to sacrifice to the demon fox
| ScienceRocks: why was that kiss sound so crisp
| Fenrir_x_Sakura: Yep, I made a good decision for my new oshis
| FinancialResponsibility joined the Fox Den!
| FinancialResponsibility gifted 50 subs!
I blinked stupidly for a moment before reality hit me. My smile widened, and I pressed my hands to my chest. If streaming was this easy, then I definitely made the right decision back then to be a streamer instead of a fan. What did owning an oil rig matter if I could tri—convince people to donate that money anyway?
“Fifty? Are you trying to make your favorite little fox fall in love with you?” My head tilted, letting one fluffy ear flop to the side. My voice dropped into a velvety purr. “Careful, darling. If you keep spoiling me like this, I might start expecting it.”
| FinancialResponsibility: investing in the future
| FoxLover: AHHH FALL IN LOVE WITH ME INSTEAD
| NahIdWin: that’s more than my rent money
| ASMRWhen: the way she lowered her voice for that line… i have hope for the future
| DeadLockedIn: games when?
More subscription alerts rolled in, each one earning a little performance. A wink here, blown kiss there, and a playful flick of my tails whenever someone gifted only seemed to light the fire under several people with money to spare. By the time it ended, my sub count had climbed to 383.
383… it was hard to believe. Any worries I had about financial stability promptly packed their bags and flew out the window. Yep, joining an agency was definitely the right choice. I swallowed a giddy laugh, and tried to recover enough clarity to keep streaming.
A warm blush rose to my cheeks as my eyes curled into a charming smile. “Ah, you guys are already making me throb.”
| FoxLover: Your HEART right?
| YuriFan: RIGHT STREAMER???? Visit novelping.com for the full chapter.
| RedPants: you have an idea what you’re doing to me?
| ASMRWhen: “Heartbeat” ASMR when?
”Hehe.” I pressed my thighs together, and made an exaggerated motion of looking down at myself. “Wouldn’t you like to know~”
| ASMRWhen joined the Fox Den!
”Thank you, darling. My little snacks are so generous.” I gave the camera a sweet smile. Two of my tails curled into a heart just behind my head. A pink neon effect flowed along the edges of my fluff, scattering into little motes of light. “I’ll make sure you get your money’s worth~”
| ASMRWhen: THAT’S A PROMISE RIGHT????
| Fenrir_x_Sakura: chat just say up straighter
| FoxLover: clipped it
| Abra-ram_Me: Gametime tho?
| DeadLockedIn: brother, I’ve found you!
”Ah, yes. The game.” I laughed lightly, and launched DeadLeague. My avatar minimized into the corner of the screen while the game took center stage.
I was planning on springboarding out of VTubing into pro play, and then from there into face-cam streaming after my first LAN. Naturally, that meant I needed to start showing my skills to drum up some hype. I needed a team before I could even think about pro play.
”We’ll be playing DeadLeague again! I hope that’s alright?” I leaned in toward the mannequin microphone, turning so my lips hovered right beside its ear. My voice dropped into a warm whisper. “I know there's other games I’d rather be playing, but we have to do the best with what we have.”
I pulled back with an innocent smile like I had no idea what I was doing. Vanessa, the Talent Director, had forced me through quite a few ASMR lessons over the past weeks.
| Abra-ram_Me: Yay! DeadLeague!
| ASMRWhen: WHY ARE YOU WASTING TIME AS A VTUBER INSTEAD OF DOING ASMR????
| ASMRWhen gifted 10 subs!
| BrokeFan: ASMR funding the fox’s retirement fr
| VTubeMe: girl hasn’t even queed and she’s already farming
| DeadLockedIn: I swear if you actually get into a game, I’ll be shocked”Thank you, darling!” I covered my mouth, giggling lightly. While my hand was busy, I used my tail. I wasn’t crazy precise with it, but I was more than capable of going through the menus. “If you keep tempting me, I just might. I’m a very impressionable fox.”
| ASMRWhen: GUYS SHE’S IMPRESSIONABLE
| YuriFan: Can I impress you into Yuri?
| Fenrir_x_Sakura: my time has come
| FoxLover: PROTECT THE DONO BUTTON!
A soft smile toyed across my lips as I watched chat. My viewer count had already climbed past 18,000, and was rising rapidly. It wasn’t anywhere near what I got on BlueLight’s stream, but still mind-boggling for someone who was streaming for the second time.
“Alright, alright, enough teasing for now. Let’s talk about the game plan.” I started up competitive matchmaking for the first time since I started playing DeadLeague. “I’ve never done comp before, but I figured it’d be fun to do a Bricklo to Eternus marathon right up until Bella’s stream. I hope you guys like playing lots of games~”
| YuriFanL I LOVE GAMES WITH WOMEN
| Abra-ram_Me: BRICKLO TO ETERNUS FIRST TIME???
| VTubeMe: i shall watch with interest
| Fenrir_x_Sakura: I BELIEVE IN OUR FOX
| FoxLover: can I join?! I just bought a Smurf account
I hummed softly, and tilted my head to the side while matchmaking ticked away. One of my ears flopped low in thought. “Mmm. My viewers playing with me…”
I left the words hanging in the air. Judging by how fast chat surged, it had exactly the intended effect that I wanted. My tails twitched in pure delight at how responsive chat was being. Getting a reaction out of someone… there was just something so undeniably hot about it.
A wicked smile filled my lips, and I idly trailed a finger along Listener-San’s jaw. I easily slipped back into that seductive purr. “Maybe if you’re good boys and girls, I’ll think about it?”
| FoxLover: IM A GOOD GIRL
| YuriFan: i can be good
| Fenrir_x_Sakura: I’VE NEVER MISBEHAVED IN MY LIFE
| ASMRWhen: That's it! I’m doing my taxes!
“For today, though, I want this climb to the peak to be orgas—“ I cut my self off, and my ears twitched up alertly in surprise. “Ahem, organic! I want it to be organic.”
| YuriFan: Freudian slip? Freudian slip?
| FoxLover: Orgas— I don’t think I heard you, Sakura!
| VTubeMe: CLIPPED CLIPPED CLIPPED
| DeadLockedIn: chat’s full of horndogs
I buried my face in my hands, and my ears flattened in embarrassment. The worst part? It actually was a slip up. “You’re all terrible! How can you tease this sweet little fox?”
| FoxLover: you love us though don’t you
| VTubeMe: DOWN BAD ANY% SPEEDRUN
| SakuraSimp: and so it’s begun
“A-anyway,” I let a little tremble slip through my voice, and shyly peeked through my fingers toward the camera. “DeadLeague? Right, we’re playing DeadLeague. We’ll at least get out of initiate tonight!”
| DeadLockedIn: Much more realistic. Like a first time comp player can hit Eternus
| Oshi_Inbound: I believe my Oshi can do it!
| DeadLockedIn: It’s not a matter of belief. It takes hundreds of matches to get that high up.
DeadLockedIn had a point. Eternus wasn’t something that could be hit in short order. At the very least, it took hundreds of points to climb the ranks alone. That wasn’t even considering having to play with teammates that were more confused than a fox in a chicken coop.
I had a plan for that, though. DeadLeague had a system that granted more and more points for every win in a win streak. If I just never lost, wouldn’t I hit Eternus in no time? I probably wouldn’t be able to hit it before Bella started up her stream, though. I definitely didn’t want to stream while she was streaming, either. It’d split the potential audience. Since I was part of a generation, I had to think about these kinds of things.
I’d eventually lose, of course. Not that I doubted the skills I’d been polishing thanks to [God Gamer], but that was only being pragmatic. Even if I was the best player in the world, some games were just unwinnable. Still, I could hit some crazy streaks if I tried.
“I’m not very good, but I’ll try my best to climb before Bella’s stream.” I glanced at my camera. “We can go raid her, and all my little snacks can make her day too!” The source of this chapter is novelping.com.
| BellaEnjoyer: MY PRINCESS GOT MENTIONED
| MotherCat: PAWS OFF! SHE’S MY DAUGHTER
| DeadLockedIn: I foresee a 12 hour disaster in the near future.
I shifted in my seat, and tugged at my oversized t-shirt. The fabric brushed against my sensitive nipples every time I moved, and my swaying tails weren’t helping that. Every little motion sent jolts up through my nerves. Yep, I definitely foxed around too much last night.
Hmm… speaking of foxing… I lowered one of my hands to my navel as my tail took over the mouse. I could totally masturbate on stream, and nobody would know, right? The thought of being watched by so many people while I played… It’d definitely make longer streams more interesting. Ugh, I’m such a bad girl.
I pulled away just before I could slip my hands into my boyshorts and caress my steadily heating up core. Daniel was still in my apartment, unfortunately. Maybe I should get some toys at some point too?
”Behave yourself,” I muttered to myself. My ears twitched as I saw the chat fill with question marks. “Ahem, I was talking to the tails.”
| FoxLoer: SURE YOU WERE
| YuriFan: BLAME IT ON THE TAILS
| ScienceRocks: lol, probably doesn’t even have tails. Streamer’s really acting like a nine-tailed Fox mythic would be streaming
“I am a mythic though?” There wasn’t a real point to arguing. Besides, something else distracted me right away—
| Black_Cat started a Raid with 45,982 viewers!
Black Cat, the cute catgirl that interviewed me back then, dragged a massive chunk of her viewers right into my stream. She was one of the first gen VTubers for BlueLight. We hadn’t interacted much since then, but I was thrilled that she decided to send her audience my way.
“Aw, thank you Black Cat! I love you~.” All of my tails formed heart shapes one after the other.
| Black_Cat: love you too, junior. Knock ‘em dead.
| FoxLover: can I get some loving too?
| BlackDog: New stream, who dis
| HorrorGamesAreMyJam: Hi hi!
| ASMRWhen: welcome, raiders. We’re super normal here.
| RedPants: DON’T LIE TO THEM”Welcome, welcome! I’m Sakura, your new favorite little fox. Please make yourself comfortable!” I laughed lightly, and leaned forward. I dropped into a velvety husk. “If you get lost, just follow my voice. I’ll take good care of you.”
| BlackDog: game stream or fox cult recruitment?
| FoxLover: YES
| ASMRWhen: both
| DeadLockedIn: supposed to be a game stream!
| HorrorGamesAreMyJam: coolio what game
| Abra-ram_Me: DEADLEAGUE! SHE'S GOOD TOO APPARENTLY
My game finally found a match, and took a deep breath to clear my mind. My tails stretched out and settled down, creating an aura of pink fluff around me. “Alright, little snacks. It’s time to get serious. Cheer me on, won’t you~?”
| FoxLover: SHOW THEM FOX SUPREMACY
| DeadLockedIn: moments before disaster
| SakuraSimp: I BELIEVE IN YOU
One of my tails stretched forward, and feathered down the side of Listener-San’s neck as a little reward. “Ah, thank you. To be honest, my last few matches haven’t been going well, so it really means a lot.”
I wasn’t just saying that for the sake of the stream, either. Honestly, my recent quick play win rate dropped from over eighty percent to just over seventy. No matter how much of a God Gamer I was, my mechanics and macro could only go so far in a team game. Maybe if I got into one of those competitive shooters like Rainbow Six-Nine or CS:Lorant, it could’ve been different. But no, I had to choose something super complicated.
Not that I minded, naturally. It wouldn’t be fun if there wasn’t a challenge. If I won every game I ever played, it’d actually be kinda boring. Or, at least, that’s what I was thinking as I slid off the zip line and dropped into my lane. I hit a wall bounce, and smoothly sailed into position on the high ground of the lane. While my enemy was still walking up, I got in some early chip damage to hopefully open the game up.
Something was off? These guys looked like they barely knew how to play the game compared to my normal opponents. They weren't even abusing line of sight and cover. One of them, Frankenstein, even outright charged immediately and got chunked for half his health.
Was this really the level of comp players? I dodged an ability, and slid off the high ground to start clearing the minion wave. Frankenstein darted out—only for even more of his health to disappear as I hit several headshots one after the other.
A mischievous smile crept across my face as I realized what kind of game this would be. “How about a punishment game, my little snacks?”
| Abra-ram_Me: Why’s her aim super clean, actually.
| FoxLover: Punish me? Punish me?
| YuriFan: sure
| DeadLockedIn: focus on the game, woman
| Fencing_it: THAT’S ME ON THE OTHER TEAM LMAO”Wait, really?” I checked, and it indeed was. He wasn’t in my lane, though. Still, I waved my tails toward the camera. “Hi, sweetheart! Good luck… you’ll need it.”
| Fencing_it: OH GOD
| FoxLover: DANGIT! I WAS TRYING TO DO THAT!
”If I die in this match, I’ll let you guys pick a punishment?” I tilted my head to the side and gave the camera an innocent, wide eyed look. “Aw, you guys are getting so excited. So cute~”
| FoxLover: I have way to many ideas!
| ASMRWhen: ASMR STREAM ASMR STREAM
| VTubeMe: POV: moments before regret
| DeadLockedIn: DON’T THROW FOR CONTENT”Now, now… I’ll have to approve the suggestion first. I’m a very respectable fox, you know~.” I went silent for a few seconds. “Mostly.”
| FoxLover: MOSTLY?!?!?!
| YuriFan: CLIPPED CLIPPED CLIPPED
My ears perked up, and I focused on the match once more. It wasn’t a totally reckless idea. I checked, and I was the only small character in the match. That meant only I would have access to the hidden subway system that ran under the map. If things went south, I had a readily available escape route at any time I needed it.
Not that I expected to actually need it, naturally. Frankenstein peaked out once more just as I hit level two. My Charm hit him, forcing the player to walk toward me as I easily hit a full charged headshot and punished him for it. “Darling, you’re making this way too easy for me~ Should I play one handed?”
That remark sent a frenzy through my chat. My smile deepened as I leaned forward to lock in. Regardless of what was going to happen tonight, I needed to make a strong impression. My personality and suggestiveness would take me far, but pair that with actually godly gaming skills? Hook, line, sinker.
