>>10569746I actually agree. I'm not actually too sure how self aware she is of some of the bratty stuff she does is. She does seem to tone it down and change it around based on the people she's with to some degree, so she can clearly read the room and has some self awareness of it (she has also said I think during a donation reading segment that she knows she can be hard/annoying to work with or something along those lines iirc).
But the example I just gave where she set up the followup collab with Kanae on stream. It not only puts him in an awkward spot because it could make him seem like a bad guy to turn her down on stream, but there was a language barrier between them, which further means that if he didn't want to do it again it would have been hard for him to communicate that in a polite way (which would already be a hard thing to do without the language barrier). She regularly does stuff like this, though often much more trivial/harmless but still not really behavior that I would call good or even generally acceptable. Though in a way, she does this stuff in such a bratty way, where a collab partner could respond in quite a hostile way to her and it probably wouldn't be a big deal. I could almost imagine someone straight up saying something like "no, you're annoying" and outside of people who do anything they can do create drama out of nothing, most people would probably say they were in their right to say that and Selen would probably play it off just fine (would most likely literally laugh it off).
Though with that said, it's part of her appeal and it's why I like watching her and her collabs have been some of the best collabs I have seen in my opinion. But I stand by what I said, and that's that it "could be interesting". I would rather that than someone smaller streamer doing a collab with someone like Gura, where the smaller streamer is too intimidated and Gura would probably just be awkwardly trying to interact while probably suffering from massive feelings of imposter syndrome and trying not to be intimidating.
