You are a gay little animal, and it’s your day off from work today.

Every day, a thousand hours a day, one million days a week, you work as a cashier at The Store in exchange for Dollars. But not today!

Freshen up, break your fast, then take fifteen to thirty minutes to clean your room, just so you've done something for yourself that you can feel better about. Heck, no rush. Do it while you distractedly checking your phone.

You go by Dee Scotch, though it's actually short for Laydidee Hopscotch. Your usual online handle is DScotchShy1.

You're hoping to find some friendly companionship for today. No need to spend your day off lonely, right? Doesn't have to be much. Just getting in touch with a friend, old or new, and doing something nice together.

Laydidee Hopscotch, that’s you. Your name tag at work just says “Dee Scotch.” Every customer buying alcohol makes the same joke about it. Every single time.

Cleaning… on your day off…. god why

You gobble up the uneaten saltwater taffy from your floor and use the baggie to pick up your trash while you scroll. There are a few animals you kinda know who are posting right now. You could message one to hangout, theoretically...

Splotch looks like he just finished his morning stuff. He’ll probably just be sitting around posting for the next few hours. You’ve never met him irl but he lives around here somewhere. You followed him for his gaming streams while you were really into this one game. You’ve never had time to play the game yourself, so you just live vicariously through him.

Elberta Jubilee is an old classmate of yours. You used to play together sometimes in like first grade but then grew apart, and now you weirdly can’t not refer to her with her full name. She’s always talking about sponsored products. You think it’s really impressive that she gets sponsorships, but her pics are always kinda… unfortunate. You mostly still follow her out of a weird sense of responsibility for reporting all her trolls. She usually hangs out at cafes nearby.

Rowdy just got done arguing online again, looks like. She likes to do that. You’ve seen her and her boyfriend around town plenty of times, usually near chain link fences and rusty “keep out” signs. You thirst followed her a while back and now you’re kinda scared what she’d do if you unfollowed...

Biscuit has been your best friend for a while! You both like saltwater taffy. Looks like they’re sadposting. They make a lot of posts like that.

Oh god. Also your neighbor Ness texted you. They probably want another favor.

Honestly, seeing if Splotch would like to meet up seems like the least amount of drama. But if you're looking for some action, I say try to hunt down Elberta. Reignite that friendship and hey, maybe you can score some free stuff.

Unless you honestly think you have a chance with Rowdy, unfollow them

>News tab
Aaaand uninstall'd/turned off. You'll catch up with news at your leisure, not your phone's.

>Cleanup, why
Cuz' you get the dopamine hit of having Done A Thing That Needed Doing at the low low cost of bending over a few times - basically a morning stretch!

>Likes saltwater taffies
Saltwater taffies are pretty great. What else do you eat, though? Like, if you wanna go out lunching with someone might as well treat yourself. Think of a good place to have an early lunch with someone.

>Friend, who
Let's consider. If you want a no-drama, low-stress day of light fun, this is not the day to band-aid or solve other people's issues (unless that's really rewarding to you!) or your issues with them (let sleeping Rowdies lie) or spend your precious time doing big favors (Neeeesss).

With that in mind, you can hang out with cool dude Splotch (unless he needs sleep, might need it if he stayed up all night streaming, if so make plans to catch him in the evening instead), catch up with Elberta (reminiscing, making sure you still 'got it' in terms of a friendly relationship), or go bring Biscuit out of their funk if you think you can do it weedless, or get them some of that pity weed. But maybe not toke up yourself as that's gonna make your free day vanish in a haze - do it in the evening, if at all!

'nyway, yeah, I'd say talk to people in that order of priority; Splotch, Elberta, Biscuit - with Splotch getting bumped to the back of the queue if he's tired.

>Dealing with Ness
"Slept in, day off, got plans. U?"

Check her picture, but send the above message. That'll soft lock her from making any big requests unless she's socially oblivious or actively rude. Even if your plans are a vague 'spend time with someone' they're still plans!

Thats... pretty kinky tbh, ngl.

Btw, Elberta seems like someone who would be a bad influence due to their involvement in pyramid schemes. That being said, you are kind of stalking them without seeming like you actually have any romantic feelings for them, so unless you have a very good reason, you should probably unfollow them as well.

How much money do you have? You could totally stream if you wanted to. It just has some relatively steep startup costs (custom pc: $1500-$2000, mic: $130, headset: $250, webcam: $200, damn good internet: price varies, video editing software: free-$200, so about $2000-$3000).

--

>>969589
If they are flirting, then they are doing it the wrong way, since peeling skin seems kinda gross, especially to those who don't shed skin. It is intimate the same way cleaning someone's ears is. It is the closeness that makes it intimate, not the act itself.

I would agree that they are pretty gross. At first I thought the cultural differences may just seem gross to a non-lizard, but noo, this person is just gross and that has nothing to do with their species. Leather anything would be wasted on them as they are now (not to mention expensive).

You know, regardless of streaming or what we do today, we really need to rethink our life. It is becoming clear to me that our room is a glass castle protecting us from the crusty apartment with crusty people, our shitty low paying job, and a lack of any real genuine friends. I mean the closest people to real friends are a slob next door that takes advantage of us, and a somewhat high-profile streamer we have never met in real life. Now this get together today could go great, but I can definitely see how this could go downhill very steeply very fast. What if Splotch doesn't see us as a real friend, but just a clingy fan that they are nice to? What if we are no different than dozens if not hundreds of others who talk to him? Could our neighbor be excited to go, not because of us, but because she wants to meet said streamer?

Idk, maybe i am paranoid, but don't get your hopes up, Scotch (and maybe prep for some possible platonic heartbreak).

I actually forgot about Biscuit. From the little that we have seen, she seems genuine. If so, she is probably the best person we could go see right now. She would be the most receptive to our issues since she actually cares about us. Additionally, if she is fighting her own demons, we should totally helper with that as best as we can, since that is what friends do.
Bottom line is we should weed out all of the "friends" and strengthen our actual friendships.
We are only sunk if we have no real friends.

>lonely
Idk, I can see where you are coming from, but unless they throw us a bone in that regard, we really shouldn't assume such a thing, since it would be incredibly mean and rude. (though if they do open up to us about such a thing, we should probably try to help them clean themselves up, figuratively speaking. no peeling) That being said, there is a good chance they are just a mean, somewhat Machiavellian person. I mean, it sounds like they just sort of forced us into the favor situation because we were too meek to say no. Especially since we are doing favors to get the chance to pay for the privilege to use the complex's bathroom, which is incredibly messed up. Assuming we are a tenant in the apartment complex and not a squatter, what happened to our own pass? What is keeping us from sending a request to the landlord for a new pass?

>>969722
Honestly, to me it just sounds like they have disposable income and are trying to impress us so we would be more open to manipulation. People that are somewhat famous will often do that sort of thing, unfortunately.

You consider your new Genitals. “Uh, they just appeared with a poof this morning. Is that not how everyone else gets them?”

“guess i couldn’t tell ya when and where i got mine, lol” Ness says.

>How did you use the bathroom before having them?

Um, the normal way?

>What happened to your bathroom pass?

It’s a monthly subscription to have the bathroom pass. You opted not to renew it after the first few months living here because Ness was so generous offering theirs. You’re not actually sure why Ness has one considering they rarely use it, if ever.

You don’t really want to go to The Store right now. You briefly consider using your scarf to form a sumo wrestler’s mawashi when— POOF!

Your Genitals are gone again!

Ness stares at you. “what.”

Aw. You never even got to do anything with them. Maybe you can make them come back again another time?

>Maybe Ness shouldn’t come to Splotch’s with you, actually.

M-maybe not… you never mentioned it to Splotch, and it would be a little rude to show up with someone else who wasn’t invited. You think of what to say. [+10 Stress]

“Um, Ness? Now that I think about it…. maybe you shouldn’t actually come with me right now.”

Ness stands there for a moment, then says, “Oh?”

They seem unthrilled.

“N-NOT BECAUSE I don’t want to hang out or anything, it’s just—“ you scramble for an excuse. Ness looks away. “It’s just that, uh, I think… I think maybe it’s a, uh, ahaha, a Date?? Haha”

Ness turns back toward you, their expression totally reversed. “oooooooh, laydidee, you tail-chaser!”

Now they seem... delighted?

“why didn’t u just say so, ya little stud! it’s about time lmaooooo i was getting worried about u” They nudge you hard in the ribs.

“Haha… well,” you say.

“alright look I’ll walk ya there since ya seem nervous. then we can meet up later before we go see your other friend. oh!” They squat down and dig through their bag. When they find what they were looking for in the deepest darkest corner, they hold it out for you to take.

It’s… a condom. You hastily grab it and stuff it in your scarf.

The both of you keep walking. You take out your phone to text Biscuit along the way. You send a message that says “Hey Bisky! I saw your post earlier. I’m busy this morning but what if Genessika and I come by later with weed? :0 (sorry they’re the one who has the stuff lol)”

They respond a few minutes later as you approach Splotch’s apartment building. “sure!!! ^_^ any friend of urs is a friend of mine!!!! see you later! :3 <3”

Well… you’re here. Your first time meeting Splotch. What should you say to him? Should you try to act cool or something? You’re nervous suddenly!

Take a few seconds to do some stress management. Reaffirm yourself. You're a cute, little critter with some cool buddies to hang out with and a rad scarf. There's hope for your romantic prospects, and even Ness knows that if the condom was any indication. Today is going to be a good day.

Idk, follow your heart.

Things to keep in mind:
1. This is probably not a date, since that was a conclusion you reached.
2. They may not be as genuinely interested in you as you are of them.
3. They may end up actually being a bad person.
3a. They may end up not actually seeming bad, but will try to manipulate you or even drug you.
4. Just keep your head on, be careful, and think critically. You may end up being pleasantly surprised.

5. Ditch the damn condom, that is not a first date activity unless you are trying to have a one night stand.

Alright take a bit of time to calm down. Relax, Splotch invited you, which means he's really your friend. You're gonna have a fun time, you look nice, and you're prepared in case things *really* go well.
I dunno if trying to act "cool" is a good idea, but you can try to be confident? Go with some generally-acceptable social moves like saying it's nice to meet him in person.

Bad thoughts swirl in your gay little head, but you take a moment to calm down and reaffirm yourself. You’re cute, you’re little, you have good friends and a rad scarf. Splotch invited you here and seemed excited about it! Worse case scenario, if things go bad, you can just go dumpster diving. You knock on Splotch’s door.

After a moment, Splotch opens up and greets you.

“Scotchy!!!!!” he trills. “You’re SO SHORT. I mean we’re almost the same height but look at you!! Omg.”

He looks different in real life! Well, no, he looks exactly the same, but more… normal? Down to earth? He looks more like how he posts than how he streams.

"Hi Splotch! It's nice to see you! Sorry I took a while getting here," you say.

“That's okay, I'm just glad to see you! Come inside, I’m hungry!” he says.

You follow him inside and he sits down in his Gamer Chair, carefully sliding his tail through the back like any regular animal.

You get a good view of his room from the opposite angle than the camera usually faces. He has posters on the wall like you do, only they look more tailored to his interests. Like he bought them, instead of got them from work in place of a raise. There are some costumes hanging on the wall beside his bed that are out of frame most of the time.

His shelves are full of figures from games and anime. You recognize his main from the game he plays most, and most of the Pocket Guys (including Bobblio! Your favorite!), but whoever most of the anime girls are is lost on you.

Behind him is his Gamer Setup. A lot of it is glowing, flowing lazily through the colors of the rainbow. He has one really nice monitor, and one that seems old and busted. It looks like he was scrolling the Website on both?

He digs in his desk drawer and hands you some delivery menus. “Sorry. I haven’t eaten, I’m dying!” he says. “Oh, make yourself at home! Sit down!”

“Thanks,” you say, and sit down in his bed. It’s very soft.

He glances sideways at the Website, and then asks, “So! What do you wanna do today?” and smiles at you.

[It’s 10:53 am and on your person you have your scarf, your phone, a deck of Pocket Guys cards, and one condom. Your Stress levels are Manageable]

You flip through the delivery menus while you admire Splotch’s room. Your eyes catch on his costumes. They aren’t shitty cheap halloween costumes made of that shiny, bad smelling material. They look like proper cotton, and well tailored. You reach out a paw to touch the apron of the maid dress. “Your clothes are soo cute and nice!” you say.

Splotch beams. “Thank you! I take really good care of all my cosplay stuff. I have a lot more in plastic under the bed. Those are just the two I plan to wear soon.”

You’ve definitely seen him wear the maid dress before. It seems like a fan favorite. “What’s this other one?” you ask.

“A stewardess uniform!” he says, and awkwardly scoots around the bed to take it off the wall. “This one is new. It cost a fortune.” He holds it delicately, and almost reverently. “This is a real, actual uniform. It was designed for a luxury airline, but it was a bit too scandalous.” He drapes it against himself and smooths the skirt against his legs. It would definitely be very short when worn. And tight.

“Only 25 of these were made before the design was discontinued and replaced with something way uglier.” He hangs it back up, shaking his head.

Damn.

You notice he has a Bobblio figure on his shelf! Your favorite Pocket Guy! You point to it. “Oh, Bobblio! I LOVE Bobblio, he’s my absolute favorite!” You pull out your Bobblio cards and lay them out on the bed. Splotch smiles and picks up the card where Bobblio is balancing on a beach ball.

“Bobblio owns,” he says. “And the Bobblio haters can taste his Bubble Bomb!”

“Yeah!” you cheer. A fellow Bobblio lover!

“And watch out for him in competitive. He’s Wet Baby Boy type, so give him enough Baby Berries and he can use Cutie Pie to grind the opponent’s attack down to dust, heal himself right up with the berries, stall until the opponent has no PP, then BAM, Silly Switch straight to your highest attack Pocket Guy, keeping type in mind, and finish the job. They never see it coming. Or, Supervolve him into Bobliacci, use Big Ol Splash to flood the arena, and absolutely annihilate them with Pressure Washer. And then Bobberina can get straight up OP with a Princess Tiara equipped.”

Alright, he lost you. You don't know what the fuck he’s talking about anymore. You smile and nod.

“What’s your favorite Pocket Guy?” you ask him.

He lights up brighter than his LED strips. “Boxbunny! She’s sooooo cool and cute and strong. I always wanted to grow up to be like her as a kid.”

That checks out to you. “Why don’t you have any figures of her?”

He slumps in his chair. “They did make a fig of her. But it was a limited run years and years ago. The only way to get it anymore is from nerds online who’s wives are making them sell their precious collection, so they put it up for a wild fucking price nobody will pay.”

“Aw, so? I’m sure you could get one after just one stream!”

He spins in his chair, slowly and wistfully. “I bet so… hm.” He looks up at his shelves. “She could go right next to g.RL…”

You take a look at the menus again and consider your options.

Yum, Taffy Pizza! A lot of people violently hate it, but you love the gooey cheese and chewy sweetness together. Pizza is fun, ordering this will chill you out and make you fun to hang out with! (-Stress, +Playfulness, -Swag)

Ooooh, Taffy Sushi! The subtle flavors of the nori and the bold taffy create a complex flavor profile you have to eat calmly and slowly to appreciate. Eating this requires coordination and focus. Good gamer qualities… (-Stress, +Dexterity, -Playful)

Aw nice, a Taffy Burger! A meal fit for a king. You can’t eat one of these bad boys and not walk around like you own the place after. They can get sloppy though. You’ll need napkins! (-Stress, +Swag, -Dexterity)

I feel like that stewardess uniform wasn't worth it. I mean, who actually keeps up with the trials and tribulations of airline stewardess uniforms? Probably would have been a lot cheaper to just get a decent uniform that wasn't a rare collectible. Hell, one could have probably bought several statues with that kind of money.

--

To be honest, this is going pretty well and they seem genuine, which is really surprising.

Before you get too far on food, you may want to make sure you both are down for food with taffy. Idk what the average opinion of taffy in food is in this universe, but I find the idea absolutely repulsive. It would be a good idea to double check just in case. I mean, what if they don't care for taffy? They could even be allergic to taffy. Regardless, just double check.

I don't think your swag rating is why you're friends, honestly. It could come back to haunt later, but pizza seems perfect.

Gotta get him in that stewardess outfit asap, somehow. It'll have to be after the pizza, but you can start dropping hints about how excited you are to see it.
