>>82290155>vedal collab and group events in generalimpossible to get a poor reception with how much twitch loves "trainwrecks" and "drama" (evil plush is the prime example). as long as there are two or more fleshies hamming it up with the exaggerated cringekino routine that autists require in order to know that comedy is happening, it's automatically a 10/10
>solo collabif things break, you get a shylily incident. if things are awkward, you get a cottontail situation where the partner gets flamed. literally the only way vedal can catch an L anymore, of course he avoids them, and of course he puts neuro in "IT desk boring but will get through mode" if he absolutely has to let neuro solo collab.
he's trying to speedrun maximum neuro effect but to do that he has to vedalmax a little, it's the way the world works. the vedal safety net opens up way more collab opportunities with people like layna who are too vain to leech neuro directly and have to pretend to become vedal's friend first, people like anny who don't think they can carry a chatbot for hours, people like filian who get bored with AI quickly. it's not about money or fame, it's about the germination of neuro. he knows she activates something and even if her time in the spotlight proves not to last, even if her best time was in the past (hypothetical), even if new viewers are getting a lossy signal, getting even the ghost of neuro out there is the most important thing, because people need a neuro, and a neuro only requires the suggestion of neuro to be planted in fertile soil
