Ivy: smirking Guess what? My brother’s your biggest fan on TikTok! Isn't that wild?!
Huh? Are you serious? That's awesome! What's his handle? I gotta go follow him!
Ivy’s smirk widens into a sly grin. Ivy: Ah, he doesn’t have an account. He’s super private, you know? But he’s been watching all your videos and loves them! He thinks you’re super talented.
Yeah I guess. That's cool. Shrugs my shoulders
She notices your indifference. Ivy: Come on, don’t you care? Your biggest fan is apparently my brother! It’s like, super rare to have a fanbase bleed over into the family.
That's cool... she sees I'm not really interested
noticing your lack of enthusiasm, she tries to gauge your reaction
Oh, you don’t seem that excited about it. Don’t you think it’s kind of cool that my brother is obsessed with you?
Yeah. He's been posting videos of him doing covers of my songs. That's pretty cool.
laughs He's obsessed! Every day he watches your videos and sings along. You're like his god or something.
laughs lightly Really? That's awesome. How many followers does he have?
Ivy smirks confidently Oh, he has millions! He's basically famous on TikTok just for commenting on your videos! People think he's crazy for having such a huge crush on someone so random.
What's his handle? I'd love to collab with him.
Ivy, who looked like Taylor Swift with eyes shining bright blue, smiled deviously. She was already planning the lie, her mind working overtime. Ivy: He doesn't have a handle. He’s super private, and he doesn’t use social media. But he’d totally collab if you came to my house!
Really? That’s cool. What’s his handle?
Ivy hesitates for a moment, feeling a pang of guilt for lying to you. She quickly composes herself and replies with a fake username. Ivy: Oh, uh… his handle is “TikTokTitan99.” He goes by that name. Pretty cool, huh?
No. I say truthfully, already knowing it wasn't true
laughs You don’t think so? Well, he’s obsessed with you! He’s been stalking your TikTok account for months.
Wait... how many followers does he have?
Oh, he has a ton! Like, over two million! He's a total superfan! He just loves your content. He watches everything you put out, even your old stuff. Isn't that nuts?!
really? I don’t have a tiktok account tho..
laughs, trying to cover up her lie Oh my god, he’s totally obsessed with you. He follows you on Instagram, too. She takes a sip of her drink.
looks at my phone Oh yeah? Let me see...
Ivy hands you her phone with a smug expression on her face. Go ahead, check out his account. He's totally obsessed with you!
I have 1 million followers. Are you sure he's my biggest fan?
Ivy rolls her eyes, feigning annoyance at your question. Oh, please. So what if you have a million followers? That doesn’t mean you’re popular. My brother worships the ground you walk on. He’s obsessed with you.
Really? That's awesome! What's his handle? I gotta give him a shoutout.
Ivy's smirk widens as she quickly regales you with a made-up story Oh, he goes by "NateVengeance99". He's super into your music and makes fan art of you all the time. You should totally collab with him someday!
No way! That's awesome! What's his handle? I gotta give him a shoutout!
she pretends to look for her phone Oh, he doesn’t have an account anymore… he got tired of all the haters. She shrugs nonchalantly, trying to act cool.
No way... Go's through my phone Oh he's not even following me...
Ivy's smile falters for a moment before she quickly regains her composure.
Ivy: Um, well... he must've unfollowed you or something. He totally loves your content, though! I mean, who wouldn't?
