Chapter 144: Begging Elf
"Give me an avatar."
Top Chat: What?
Top Chat: Sorry, I don’t speak Elf.
Top Chat: The type of elf who can’t start a stream without ambushing the viewers.
Top Chat: What does that even mean?
"We’re playing Werewolf later today, right?"
Top Chat: Yes.
Top Chat: Seems like it.
Top Chat: A 2.5D collab.
"We’ll be using our PCs to play online, yeah?"
Top Chat: Yeah.
Top Chat: Apparently so.
"I’m the only one without an avatar."
Top Chat: Ahh.
Top Chat: Well yeah, everyone else is a V after all.
Top Chat: V (all of them, fully exposing their true selves).
Top Chat: But Elf-san isn’t a V, so you don’t really need one, do you?
"I see…"
Top Chat: Those ears, so droopy.
Top Chat: Elf who just wants to belong.
Top Chat: The type that shows up mid-game if you go into the forest!
Top Chat: I can totally picture it, lol.
Top Chat: Damn, this was my chance to become Elf-san’s mama! If only I had the time, drawing skills, a tablet, money, honor, and power, I could change Japan!
Top Chat: Just become their mama already, lol.
"Mama? What’s that?"
Top Chat: It means the person who created a V’s avatar.
Top Chat: Basically the parent who gave birth to the outer shell.
"Hehh."
Top Chat: Judging by subscriber count, that drunk loli is probably working on a new avatar around now.
Top Chat: Sounds likely.
Top Chat: I, for one, predict they’ll reveal it on their birthday.
Top Chat: Since New Year’s, huh? Feels like it’s been a while.
"Do avatars get changed that often?"
Top Chat: More like minor tweaks, really.
Top Chat: Sometimes they get completely overhauled, but in 2.5D it’s mostly outfit changes.
"Outfit changes?"
Top Chat: An avatar’s basically just art.
Top Chat: To change clothes, you have to draw the new outfit.
Top Chat: Same for hairstyles or accessories.
Top Chat: For example, that drunk loli dressed up as a shrine maiden on New Year’s—base model + scarlet hakama + long hanging hair.
"Being clergy sounds nice. I wanna do that too."
Top Chat: Shrine maiden Elf!
Top Chat: I wanna see it!
Top Chat: I really wanna see it!
Top Chat: Whoa, East meets West!
Top Chat: …Something feels off.
"I wanna wear an ."
Top Chat: Ikanhi… what?
Top Chat: ???
Top Chat: Please explain.
Top Chat: It’s the formal attire worn by male clergy.
Top Chat: Ahhh…
Top Chat: No, no, wear shrine maiden clothes!
Top Chat: Do the full miko thing!
"I’m a man, you know?"
Top Chat: Don’t think you can always get away with saying that!
Top Chat: Grrr!
Top Chat: Miko elfff…
Top Chat: Uh oh, the viewers demanding Miko Elf are getting violent.
Top Chat: lol
Top Chat: But you’re already wearing something cute today.
"Am I?"
Today I’m wearing an oversized sleeveless T-shirt with a skirt. Nothing too fancy.
Top Chat: Looks good, looks good.
Top Chat: I like baggy shirts.
"If it’s just a baggy shirt, it doesn’t have to be women’s clothes, right?"
Top Chat: Did this elf just say something outrageous?
Top Chat: Well, I mean, I do like the whole “boyfriend shirt” thing.
Top Chat: But… you have a point.
Top Chat: Hey wait, don’t bring up the Forestfolk Shirt! lol
"A part of my soul."
Top Chat: Did a part of your soul turn into a shirt?
Top Chat: A part of your soul… doomed to be used as pajamas.
"Surely you could call it an avatar."
Top Chat: I’m pretty sure that’s a huge stretch!
Top Chat: If during Werewolf the only thing onscreen was Forestfolk Shirt, I’d cry.
Top Chat: Someone—quick, become Elf-san’s mama!
Top Chat: Damn, this was my chance to become Elf-san’s mama! If only I had the time, drawing skills, a tablet, dreams, hopes, and just a bit of courage, I could make you smile!
Top Chat: Just draw already!
