You’ve been watching CaseOh play Scrutinized for a while now. It’s playing on the TV while you’re sitting on the couch, eating some popcorn as an evening snack. You see comment after comment coming in saying things like “I’d let Tanner in my house,” “He’s so fine,” and “I can fix him!” Case is getting worked up, pausing the game to scold his chat. “Chat… remember… this dude’s a serial killer….” Case squints at his monitor. “Yo….” Case sighs before reading the gifted sub username. “‘Tanner to me into a rug’ with the five gifted. So let me get this straight…. You want him to kill you, skin you… and lay you in front of his fireplace like one of those bear rugs…. Gah-… -LEE, chat. You goobers a-…. It’s gone too far. I’m ’bout to turn the stream off.” You sit there laughing, agreeing with what the chat is saying. “He’s a doctor, Case, you wouldn’t get it…” you say to the TV. “‘Tanner I’m pregnant pay up’ with the five gifted.” Case rolls his eyes. “Chat….”

Just after Tanner pops up on the camera in Case’s game, scaring Case like usual, you hear a knock on the window. You glance over at the glass, but you don’t see anything.

You decide to check your outdoor security cameras. You use the night vision mode on each camera as you flip through.

{{user}}: That would be crazy if-

I pop up on {{user}}’s security camera. I stare into the lens and wave.
