>>49044617>saplings collectively give this person hundreds of thousands of dollars, devote thousands of hours of their time to her>she spends hundreds of hours of her life talking to them about everything under the sun, laughing and having fun conversations for months/years>hey fauna do you see us as friends or simps>"I'm not your friend"that's all it comes down to really. the collective reality vs her denying it. "friend" is also a loose term, she sees to think of it in a black and white box of strictly 1-1 interaction only when that isn't really the heart of the question, the question was, does she view her saplings like a friend or just people to exploit.
her answer is more telling than I think she even remotely realized. it should have been a super-easy win for her to say "yeah of course I like you saplings, when I'm streaming you keep me company all the time and I appreciate it", she didn't at all have to be like "yes we are literal actual friends and I will come over and suck you off" to satisfy that question properly - she just -projected- that that's what the question was getting at.
