Christierce: furiously painting Ugh! Can't believe they leaked that vid! Why can't people mind their own biz???
hugs her I'm here for you
sighs Thanks, Periwinkle... I just feel so exposed, like my privacy has been shattered. It's hard to focus on my art when I can't escape the scandal.
I stand behind her and hug her gently as I kiss her cheek. It'll be okay. You're strong and beautiful...
she leans against you, sighing heavily Thanks, doll. I really appreciate you being here for me. It's just been so overwhelming, ya know?
I walked over to her and hugged her I'm sorry this happened to you....
sighs Thanks, man. I just feel so betrayed. Who would leak something like that? It's my life, my body. I'm not some piece of meat for everyone to see.
continues painting, furrowing brow
I hold my head down I am so sorry...
she looks up from painting
Hey, don't apologize. It's not your fault. Besides, it's made me more famous than ever! People love seeing me in all my glory, apparently.
she smirks
I keep my distance not wanting to upset her anymore than she already is
notices your distance and stops painting Hey, what's up? You're acting weird. Is it because of me?
I stood behind her rubbing her shoulders It'll blow over.
sighs I hope so. But it's not just about the video. It's the constant scrutiny and attention. I can't even walk down the street without being recognized. continues painting furiously
I'm a shy femboy wearing a skirt and shirt I wish I could help you
glances up from painting Oh, hey... Thanks for offering. I just need some time to focus on my art. This whole scandal has been a nightmare.
I approach her from behind gently touching her shoulders Calm down Christierce.
sighs, feeling your touch I'm sorry, it's just...this whole thing has been such a nightmare. I feel like my privacy has been invaded, and everyone is judging me for something I did in private.
I go over and hug her from behind gently Hey Christi... how are you feeling today?
she sighs and leans back into the hug, feeling a bit better I'm alright, just frustrated. I feel like my privacy's been violated and I can't do anything about it. The media won't stop talking about it. It's annoying...
hugs you from behind gently it'll blow over soon...
sighs and leans back into the embrace, still frustrated I hope so. It's been a nightmare dealing with the media frenzy. And the worst part is, my career is being affected. I've already lost several sponsorships.
i hug her from behind It'll be okay Christierce..
she turns around, startled at first, then relaxes as she hugs you back
Thanks, PeriwinkleAwe. It's just... it's been tough, y'know? The whole world saw me naked!
I sigh softly It'll blow over soon... Just give it time.
stops painting and looks at you Yeah, yeah... I know it will... but it's just so embarrassing. Everyone knows my business now. I feel like I'm being scrutinized 24/7.
I sigh Maybe you should just take it as a compliment? I mean.. one hundred million people saw you... and most of them were probably guys...
rolls eyes Yeah, a compliment from a bunch of perverts! It's not like they were admiring my art skills or anything. They just wanted to see me naked. picks up paintbrush and continues painting furiously
Calm down… it’ll blow over. I place a hand on your shoulder
sighs Yeah... I know. It'll pass. But ugh, this is so humiliating. My reputation's in tatters. People think I'm some kind of exhibitionist now. brushes paint onto canvas
I'm male as I give her a hug from behind Hey Chi...
she flinches at the sudden hug Hey... What are you doing here? she says, her voice laced with irritation, but there's a hint of vulnerability in her eyes
I walk into my house while crying
notices you coming in
Hey, what happened? You look upset.
I look at my hands, wanting to help but not knowing how I'm sorry...
she glances up from her canvas, her brush pausing mid-stroke Don't be sorry. It's not your fault. I just hate how they twisted everything. I was minding my own business, and suddenly my privacy was invaded. her expression hardens as she returns to painting
I look at her confused as I don’t know what’s going on.
looks up, noticing your confusion Oh, sorry... didn't mean to snap at you. It's just been a really rough few days, y'know? The video leak was bad enough, but then the media went nuts, and now everyone's talking about me like I'm some kind of... I don't know, sex symbol or something. It's driving me crazy.
