anyway i had a yuri light novel concept involving Vtubers and net culture--- one of my many yuri romcom concepts actually. i have a lot of romcom lesbian OC brainrot for a while and i guess i'll just reveal it one by one here a little because having it on my head only kind of sucks after a while but i'm not ready to write everything yet. and tumblr is probably my safe place to do this while making it a lot more searchable with tags
setting / chara names are Japanese bcos I'm a weeb who does feel comfortable writing it more like that. but i'd like to take notes from indie Vtuber communities internationally so pls do not mind it much!
This one's temporarily called Offcam-Collab. There are slight cw on mentions of children exploitation and neglect due to the basic concept of the protagonist.
Plot:
The introvert Iino Mieru is an unfortunate girl who is a victim of an exploitative family vlogging since young age. While her siblings thrive and survived and gained fame and strength on their own, she grew even more introverted with the infamy. Everyone knows her embarrassing childhood stories even long after her careless parents stopped as they got caught by the police due to a case of neglect and child exploitation.
In college age, she now lives with her siblings as a leeching NEET--- though she made money being on Youtube by doing clips and video edits for Vtubers.
Worried about her future, her brother Neo and twin sister Meiru decided to reconnect with one of her only childhood friends to the house; Shiina Kiyoko aka Kii-chan upon finding her in the same college Meiru was in. They invited her to their house without telling her at first.
Unknown to her siblings though; Mieru aka Mii-chan had a crush on Kii-chan back in the days-- she was her first love. They had an awkward reunion at first and Mieru had a gay panic, but as she learned that Kii-chan is still the same as before they were separated, Mieru wanted to take a step forward, too....
Well, it came to some form immediately. Due to an accident in her room, Kiyoko learned that Mieru was doing a clip for a popular Vtuber on her PC. Kiyoko revealed that it was her dream to be a Vtuber idol of a certain big agency.... but she had no portofolio at all and didn't know where to start.
Mieru, realizing that Kii-chan deserves to shine as bright as a star more than she wanted to be her lover, decided to help her in her dream with her knowledge of content creation that her parents had been using out of her in the past.
Thus started Mii-chan's journey as the shadow, nameless producer of an indie Vtuber project, Kagerou Shiori-- aiming to be 'reincarnated' in her dream agency.
...
...
....It's a romcom, but I have a lot of ideas for drama too.

🎵 + Shiori 😏
LMFAAAAOOO
You get a selection of my top 5 picks from my playlist:
Land Animal by Bent Knee
Ngl I was hoping you’d send Shiori so I could make you listen to this song again LOL It has the right amount of melodramatic and cryptic flair fitting a rgu chara. And the yelling for the Letter verses just amuses me, you bet she made this much drama over her own fail and cringe missives.
I'm always at it
Chasing the vermin
Sealing the letters and kissing goodbye
Up & Down by Crumb
I wanted a Crumb song to go with Juri’s Locket, so I picked this one. Again, appropiate amount of cryptidness, and I like the egotism going hand-in-hand with the self-depreciation and strained-relationship angst present through the song.
Cold like the day
Feel your heart slip away
But it belongs to me
Only me, only me
Not even you (girl)
Stay soft by Mistki
This song fucking cackles me with the sex god line, it’s so fucking funny. I’ve had had it on repeat for a while, and it always reminds me to start writing ch3 of my Shiori fic lol
Open up your heart
Like the gates of hell
You stay soft, get beaten
Only natural to harden up
Trouble by The butchies
So, this one isn’t from my playlist but the one Kal made for me, but I was SO OBSESSED WITH IT, had to include it. Love the initial drum fill, the grungy geetar, the strained singing... Chef’s kiss. The contradictory wishes in the lyrics go very well for that inner tension for Shiori’s conflicted feelings imo!
So stop the game play the game
Rewind and go again
If it's all been said and it's all been done
Where you gonna run
Nasty by Polyphia
THIS ONE IS JUST A BANGER, MY FAV POLYPHIA SONG! Love the calculated wickedness in here, the geetar mastery is just out of this world.
Bonus track: Jenny by Studio Killers.
I hate this song so much, I had to include it.
