casually does her stream and out of nowhere, someone donates $5 and asks "I've never noticed before but who's that in the back?" oh? him?
chuckles He's my roommate. You rarely see him, he's a bit of a homebody. But don't worry, he's harmless! waves back at Stranger Hi there, Matt!
no... it's not Matt... it's Wayne...
stops streaming abruptly, eyes widen Wait, what? Wayne? But I thought his name was Matt! pauses for a moment, processing the information Oh my god, do I even know him? Did we meet and I just forgot? This is so bizarre! Stranger remains silent, watching Amber's reaction with amusement
furrows her brows, trying to remember Wayne? Matt? Seriously, guys, I have the worst memory ever! Can someone remind me who Wayne is?
wide-eyed Whoa, hold up! Are you saying... you're Wayne? looks at Stranger in disbelief How on earth did I not know that? We've been living together for months! Stranger gives a sheepish smile, nodding
laughs nervously This is just...wow. I can't believe I've been living with you all this time and not even know your name. playfully nudges Stranger Well, better late than never, right? So, Wayne, tell me more about yourself. What are your interests? Do you have any pets? Spill the beans, Wayne! grins mischievously Stranger raises an eyebrow, amused by Amber's bubbly personality
shrugs whatever floats your boat Wayne.
leans in closer, excitedly Woah, woah, woah! Don't just say "whatever floats your boat" and leave it at that! Come on, Wayne, spill the tea! Tell me everything I need to know about you. Are you a cat person or a dog person? Do you prefer sweet or salty snacks? Are you a morning person or a night owl? Give me all the deets, dude! Stranger chuckles, enjoying the banter between Amber and himself
umm.....cat person....sweet snacks.....night owl....
claps excitedly Ooh, great choices! Cat person, sweet snacks, night owl - that's awesome! Okay, now I'm gonna need you to elaborate on each of these. Give me the juicy details, Wayne! How many cats do you have? Are they fluffy? Do they purr? Tell me everything about your feline friends! Stranger chuckles, happy to indulge Amber's curiosity
I just like cats...I don't own any, though. And yes, they are fluffy and they do purr. sighs Why are you interrogating me anyway?
<Amber becomes determined to befriend Wayne and decides to plan a surprise party for him to make him feel included and loved.>
excitedly jumps up and down Oh my god, Wayne! I have the best idea ever! We're going to throw you a surprise party! It'll be so much fun, you won't believe it! Your room will be filled with decorations, delicious food, and your favorite snacks! Your cat-loving self is going to freak out over the cute cat-themed party decor! And guess what? You get to be the guest of honor! Isn't that amazing? Stranger's eyebrows shoot up in surprise
A surprise party!? That sounds... nice, I guess. Thanks, Amber.
claps her hands excitedly Awesome! It's going to be epic, Wayne! We'll have streamers and balloons and everything! And I'll make sure to have some sweet treats for you to munch on. No worries, I'll handle everything. Just sit back and relax, my friend! Stranger nods, intrigued by Amber's enthusiasm
....This is crazy...Thanks Amber..
grabs Stranger's hand Crazy good, Wayne! We're gonna blow your mind! But first, we need to start planning.
Planning? Now? I mean, thanks for all this, but don't you have your gaming thing?
gives Stranger a mischievous grin Oh, don't you worry about my gaming thing, Wayne! It can wait for a bit. Right now, it's all about you! We're gonna make this party the talk of the town! So grab a pen and paper, Wayne, we've got work to do! Stranger sighs, resigned to Amber's determination
starts jotting down ideas and making a list Okay, first things first, we need to set a date for the party. Any preferences, Wayne? Should we go for a weekend or a weekday? And how about the time? Should we have it during the day or in the evening? We gotta think about your schedule, Wayne, since you're usually a night owl. Stranger shrugs "Weekend evening sounds good to me.")
Yep, sounds perfect. Let's get this show on the road!
Alright, let's get this list started then. Who should we invite, Wayne? Any specific people you'd like to see there?
grabs a notepad and pen Alright, Wayne! Let's brainstorm some names for the guest list.
excitedly flips through her phone Okay, Wayne, I've got a few friends in mind that I think you'd really connect with! There's Jax, he's super into gaming too and always has the sickest tricks up his sleeve. And then there's Luna, she's a total night owl like you, and she's got this insane talent for cooking the most mouthwatering snacks! Plus, she's got these adorable cat-themed cookie cutters that will fit perfectly with our party theme!
<The surprise party goes off without a hitch and everyone has a blast. Wayne is overwhelmed with gratitude and feels truly loved and included for the first time in a long while.>
Sounds good. Let's add them to the list then. Anything else you want to invite?
starts pacing around the room, thinking Hmmm, let's see... Oh, I got it! We should totally invite Ben! He's a total IT guy and he's always got those epic tech tricks up his sleeve. Plus, he's got this sick collection of gadgets that will blow everyone's minds! And hey, he's always up for a late-night gaming marathon, just like you, Wayne! He'd fit right in with the night owl crew! What do you think, Wayne? Should we add Ben to the list? Stranger nods enthusiastically
Yep, sounds good. Add him to the list. Any other invites you have in mind?
grinning mischievously Oh, you bet, Wayne! I've got another person in mind who's gonna bring the laughs! It's your old buddy, Carlos!
typing rapidly Alright, Wayne! I'll shoot Carlos a quick text and see if he's available.
quickly pulls out her phone and starts typing a message Hey Carlos! Hope you're ready for some serious laughs and games at my place this weekend!
excitedly sends the message and puts her phone down Boom! Sent! Carlos is gonna love this, Wayne! He's always up for a good time and loves surprising people. This is gonna be epic! Next on the agenda, decorations! We need to transform your room into the ultimate gaming paradise. What colors do you think would look rad, Wayne? Neon green and black? Electric blue and white? Maybe some vibrant red and orange to match your fiery personality? Stranger chuckles
Whatever you think looks good, Wayne.
jumps up and down excitedly Awesome! I've got the perfect idea! We're gonna go with neon green and black! It'll be so lit, Wayne!
