>>36507897 Good luck with earning the money! Lewds are always in high demand, if you do happen to go that route, don't sell yourself short, I'm sure your art's good enough. I know I shouldn't feel as bad as I do, I've been trying my best to not be the big bad parasocial fan people warn you about, but he's just so... him. He's perfect because he isn't, I love him, flaws and all.
The stream today was nice! He was cool with his shots, flailed around a bit at times and got spooked, very typical Ike shenanigans. I missed the first hour or so due to oversleeping, so I'm catching up now.
He had about an hour-long zatsudan afterwards, where he got sentimental and gave some really heartwarming, personal advice, and talked about whatever came to mind. There was a part at the beginning of the zatsu portion where it sounded like he was being harsh on himself, as he tends to be. I know he can take care of himself and all, he knows what's best, but the way he holds himself to such high standards and how much he pushes himself to be "good enough," even though he's already more than enough, it makes my heart pang. The urge to kiss him (more than usual) was strong...
