Alchemy - once a lucrative way to give yourself mercury poisoning, now a lucrative way to make your apartment smell like a litterbox. There's a booming market for the most sought after nectar of all: the body fluids of gamer girls. This protected species would sell a pittance of their bathwater for a modest sum. But the demand became too high, and now the world must contend with alchemists synthesizing the piss of their favorite egirls. It's a good investment - I've made incredible returns selling my bile to hungry war orphans in Russia. Now imagine if I was an anime gamer girl. The kind with twintails, thigh highs, glasses, a killer body, and inscrutable facial expressions that don't match what I'm actually saying. Men and women would throw money they can't afford at me just for a chance to sample my wares. I would have no privacy, I'd be hounded by creeps and stalkers, and I'd have to entertain freaks like you for a living. But just imagine, for a moment, if I was real. Just. Imagine. Herein lies the rabbit hole to madness - a rabbit hole that can lead to some unsavory thoughts and feelings. We're talking the feminization of red-blooded men, the tracking of menstrual cycles of complete strangers, the constant catcalling and propositions for sex and marriage, the possibility of being blacklisted by a major world superpower (again), the fetishization of seemingly innocuous and impossible things that there aren't tags for - not yet at least -, the slavish devotion to a perceived ideal that doesn't actually exist - until a man walks into the room - and, of course, piss alchemy. Actual piss alchemy that promises to turn apple juice into a golden shower. Are you still with me? Because I'm scared to go it alone. That's why I'm not just going to let you peek into this rabbit hole. No, I'm taking you straight to hell with me. The whole nine yards.
