Hello, yes, liaschizo here. I need to interject during this time to better explain the appeal of Lia. Lia isn't a beginner or even intermediate chuuba to engage with. The kind of emotional depth and "twisted" relations necessary to really appreciate the texture of Lia's product is highly niche and, fortunately or unfortunately, depends on having a strong grasp on the initial understanding of her transition into the Vtuber sphere and the expectations laid out for her from a still naive and delusional Kevin. The sweetest vector of Lia's performative action really comes from the intermingling of her and Kevin's raw desire. Lia, talented as she is, is on paper the definition of "untapped talent" that is she has a clear drive and bank of definable talents that sadly have no translatable analog in the industry she has dedicated herself to. That's of course a lie as the wildly refined and intricate narrative prowess gained through her constant smut scrolling AO3 obsession has enabled her to craft narrative and development discretion beyond your average chuuba. It's in this "sweet spot" that Lia runs her grift. It's the sweetest thing. Something that a middle child Disney Princess perfectly encapsulates into her on again off again effort at life. There is a standoffishness to her presentation that is wildly attractive in the sense that it activates that prey drive of pursuit/protective overdrive of vulnerable female that is the definition of her existence. It's in the wildly inconsistent, committed, non-commital way that she engages with her own progress that attracts the biggest engagement. It's like fucking freebasing crack for a certain type of broken individual to want to grab Lia by the shoulders and shake some sense into her, to get her to commit to the greatness awaiting her ascent. I think the single most crucial point of her career to date still stands during her Stray performance, the utter heartfelt rejection of her position, the unworthiness of her mantling her own dreams. I don't often sexualize Lia, I largely view her as a little sister figure but the parasocial reality of the relation and the underlying tension of Lia's performance really encapsulates one particular aspect of sexuality that defines the feminine.
This will, perhaps, be my most vulgar consideration of Lia to date. While many of the other talents in Phase Connect flirt with this concept, Lia's conceptual thrust into the field is entirely consumed by this one concept.
Being overwhelmed.
The other girls again demurely flirt with this concept, perhaps second best encapsulated by Dizzy and Lumi, with the most reprehensible, overly articulated engagement of the topic being Shiina (love u kani), but Lia's entire character is based on this utter vulnerability. Of course the crux of intimacy is vulnerability and in Lia's fractured, smut addled mind, this vulnerability is wildly proffered to her viewer as the core of her presentation. Again, inexcusably, this is the sheerest realization of orgasm. A complete and total surrender to the overwhelming weight of the situation. This is why Lia is the eternal youth of Phase Connect. She embodies the orgasmic revival of an utterly overwhelming moment. None of the other girls even come close to Lia's consistent, flawless navigation of that divine moment of truth. No matter what height she mantles here is that wet, dew speckled realization of vulnerability and hesitant acceptance of her position. I fully get why the other women in Phase Connect feel threatened by Lia, her youthfulness casts all of them in an utter hag light. Some of the other talents debase themselves in a faux kind of youthful indiscretion that in comparison to Lia just makes them seem all the more haggish. Lia truly is something special and the devil mark on her profile speaks to the underlying intelligence to her broader conquest of this position for her own enrichment.
