“...You know. I still don’t really know why all of this even happened.” Karra suddenly asked a pretty important question as she lay on my lap, basking in the calm atmosphere of the park.
“It might be sothing we will never know for centuries.” I jokingly said… Sowhat jokingly said. “There might be new myths and legends that co out, saying this is all the sparking point… Who really knows what people will say to justify its existence.”
“...Huh. Speaking of that, weren’t those zealots panicking really badly? It was on the news and all.” She brings up a rather old topic we haven’t really talked about much. “Did they co up with a new excuse? I haven’t seen those guys stirring stuff up online or anything, were they just moping and coping?”
“Not really sothing I really care to look into. There are more relevant topics to look through.” I answered honestly. It’s just stuff to get infuriated over and ultimately doing nothing about. It’s a bunch of dumb discussions, but not dumb enough to be worth talking about or taking actions. “But more importantly… Actually. There’s not much to do or say, it feels like. At least as it stands right now.”
“Been a bunch of slow weeks. Nothing wrong with that, but I also haven’t got much to do or stream.” She ntioned. It’s not like the school prevents her from streaming or anything, but it’s not like she has much ti to do it before she has to go back to class. Not because the schedule is strict, but just that a long stream is better overall, and she could only reasonably stream for about an hour in there. She also doesn’t want to test the limit of how long the school is actually open.
Obviously she still posts short videos and pictures to gather attention, but her options aren’t all that exciting or unpredictable. She’s been getting real sick of talk-only streams.
“...So speaking of not having much to do, I guess you haven’t been up to anything either?” Karra asked, keeping the conversation going as we simply basked in the gentle breeze.
“Nothing of the sort. I barely get asked to do anything, and I don’t have plans of my own.” I don’t really have grand ambitions or anything like that, and I see no point in stirring stuff up for fun… Well. At least I don’t feel the need to.
In the early months while I was still exploring what I can do and being strung along to train, as well as getting bothered by those guys, I was definitely doing a few stunts I didn't need to. That Antarctica stunt is definitely impressive in many ways and got on a bunch of headlines, but practically becoming a global enemy because those guys couldn’t stop throwing tantrums about their foolish expedition and need soone to lash out on, was a bit of a headache for a while.
They were seriously hunting and interrogating anyone who even remotely looked like , thinking just my general color sche and being in an English-speaking country is enough to start harassing people, starting with this town, of course.
The backlash to that was so big that thankfully I didn’t have to step-in and do so dirty business to get them to stop, but it does leave a bad taste in my mouth after everything was said and done.
Maybe if I was way less compromising like the old guards I would’ve been less bothered by it and willing to… Let’s not go there.
“Guess you won’t be pulling any stunts for a good while.” She remarked. I don’t really have a crave for that kind of attention right now. If anything I’d rather her have it, since she would benefit more from it than I do.
Fa can translate into a lot of wealth, and I wasn’t really willing to capitalize on it. It was just a bunch of things I do on a whim, and I couldn’t bother with a follow-up.
“Of course I wouldn’t. No good idea to act on, as of late. In fact all those things are basically cris of opportunity.” I simplified the cause and effect. How and why I do those things that normally I wouldn’t do. At this point I should just sit still and only show up when… Wait a second. “Maybe if you give so ideas then maybe I could stir stuff up, just for you.”
“Where did that co from?” She asked with an amused chuckle.
“From this conversation, obviously.” I replied sarcastically. “But like you said, there’s nothing happening for to act on, or have anywhere to really get loose without much issue. I don’t really have much of a creative drive.”
“So you’re asking for ideas?” She seems a bit bewildered that this is what I’m insinuating.
“More like requests. I guess.” I replied, getting a bit coy. “I think you could use soone to help you with your content.”
“So that’s where you’re going with this.” She said before her eyes darted away. “Honestly. I really don’t want to bother you with it. I know this can really snowball into a… less than ideal relationship.”
“Is that what you think?” She’s showing a surprising lack of confidence. I guess it’s because it could jeopardize our bonds, and she doesn’t want to risk ruining sothing so precious. “Then I guess we should stop talking about this for now then.”
“Yeah…” She sheepishly replied. I still think I need to act to give her more success in the future, but if she doesn’t want to do it because she asked to, then I need to do things on my own accord… and I have zero ideas in mind of what to do, so let’s put that line of thought elsewhere for the ti being.
At least she isn’t afraid to ask for sothing when it’s a rather pressing matter, but it has only happened once so far…
