56 Fun Nigh (2/2)
”Give me a job, please! I can't take working as a cover artist for Mom and Dad. They work me like a slave. I've done freelance work for games before so I have experience” Begged Sophie
”Will Uncle and Aunty be upset?” Asked Theodore
Shaking her head Sophie replies ”No they just want me to have a job that's not streaming. They said that I should treat streaming as a hobby or else I'll grow to hate it just like a regular job”
”Why didn't they say that for me?” Said, Theodore
”Your situation is different. You took streaming because it was the only job that would allow you to make money and keep Rose company. As parents themselves they are impressed” Said Sophie
Theodore gave it a moment to think about it before an evil grin appeared on his face ”I don't really need any help in the art department but I do need someone to play the game. So how's about I pay you to play my game on stream. In the next game, I'll hire you for your artistic skills”
”Thank fuck” Said Sophie in relief
”I'll have the contracts ready before the end of the day,” Said Theodore
”So tonight duos, PUBG I brought my V.R suit with me,” Said, Sophie
”Sure but be warned the ladies in my Chat won't play nice,” Said Theodore
”Tsk it's not the first time I've gotten some hate beside the guys in my chat will rip you apart,” Said Sophie
Mary began to feel jealous of thier 'I can't leave her with Theo, no I won't allow it'
”Can I join, I mean it would good to get a feel for what is considered a good game?” Asked Mary innocently
Before Theodore could say anything Sophie added ”Sure, that sounds great but unfortunately, there isn't another V.R suit”
”Oh,” Said Mary sadly
Theodore answered casually ”Nah you can join I have a spare suit. It was originally meant for Rose but it doesn't matter I'll just get another. Don't worry all V.R suits are made to fit any size and are easy to clean”
Mary gave Sophie a smug smile. To which Sophie replied with a lovely smile and eyes that could kill.
Mary wasn't bothered as she asks Theodore ”Why don't you try it out now? Just to make sure that you don't embarrass yourself in front of your Stream”
Theodore answers with a question of his own ”Do you know why streaming is such a big hit?”
”Is it cause its free entertainment?” Asked Mary
”It's the soft porn, Isn't it,” Said Sophie
”No buut sadly yes. The main reason is that streamers are relatable. At its core streamers are just regular individuals with a decent personality that wants to show thier skills, humour and talent. And that is what the current generation wants to see. People want to see just another fun guy/girl fuck about live in front people” Said Theodore
”So you need to show that you aren't perfect to keep that sense of relatability but what happens if you get good at PUBG?” Asked Mary
”The other thing about streaming is that they get to see my progress and even coach me. Although 9/10 of those 'coaches' will be trolls” Said Theodore
”So messing up is also entertainment?” Asked Mary confusedly
”Yep, but its not so much that they mess up but the natural reaction after doing so. Like the guys who destroy their monitor after getting shat on by some squeaker called HighOnGlue for 8th time in a row” Said Sophie
Theodore couldn't help tease her ”You good buddy?”
To which Sophie responded ”Fuck off, the kid was using claymores and RPG's”
Seeing the reaction that Sophie had Mary understood and said ”Oh I get it, so when are we playing?”
”After I put Rose to bed at around six and then I'll start streaming and read Batman after that we play PUBG, so probably seven o'clock. I'm kind of excited this is like my first game in a while. Its gonna be a fun night” Theodore said excitedly
