I love Tenma. I want to marry Tenma. I will marry Tenma. I want to spend time with Tenma. While I would train even if she wasn't there, I train harder knowing that she will see it one day, and I want to impress her. I want to hug and kiss her. I want to greet her from her work. I want to make delicious food for her. I want to listen to her explaining some game I never played. I want to listen to her rambling about how she hates her work. I want to make her a good cup of good coffee. I want to hug her while she rambles and drinks coffee. After she's done rambling and drinking coffee, I would want to kiss her. And then we can do whatever she would want to do. We can watch movies together, we can listen to music together. We can just cuddle, I would love to do that. If she's too angry, she can punch me — I will take it, I will endure it so that she can feel better. She can punch a bag, yes, but, personally, I found out that punching other people releases more pressure. I would do all that because I want to make her happy. I want to make her comfortable. I want to be the husband she loves.

Because I love Tenma. I just came back from my walk, why are we now SuperiorPCG?

What you must understand about Pipkin Pippa isn't that she's stinky or a femcel, but that she has really long feet. We're not talking human-sized feet, here. Pipkin Pippa is the Salad Fingers of toes. It's a miracle that this SCP anomaly of feet can leave her home without tripping over her toes and falling into oncoming traffic. They're so long that they're the only thing that could bridge diplomacy between Russia and Ukraine. They're so long that you could use them as a bridge between Taiwan and the mainland. They're so long that you could use them as a unit of measurement in city planning. What I'm trying to tell you, anon, is that Pipkin Pippa's feet are too long.

but think of the long term, taking care of a child is hard work and that would mean there would be less time to stream. Furthermore a child could disrupt fun streams by starting to cry in the middle of one. Short term gains but long term losses are no good unless the child is mine

Some Nasa facts from her stream (a couple might be old news)
>Found Phase through social media
>Chose Phase because it was the only one with the CEO's name and face on the application form and website, so she felt she could trust it
>Used the EN form instead of the JP one because she's an idiot and REALLY couldn't read English at the time
>It was her first audition
>Dressed up in a suit for the interview. She didn't need to turn her camera on for it in the end.
>Is the kind that wears pajama pants during online calls since only your upper body is visible anyways
>Didn't know how to use OBS or a lot about streaming in general
>Recorded and sent in herself singing a song with no mixing or anything when asked to
>Happy that she had the courage to apply and now has fans that she can chat with and stuff
>Was working for a black company at the time
>Didn't apply for any other vtuber company, but she was invited by a friend of a friend that wanted to create a vtuber company for an interview and destroyed them with her questions
>Thought there would be more people who couldn't speak English (there weren't)
>There's been a lot of work to be done in the countryside recently, so she stays up until like 4 am, sleeps and then wakes up to stream
>The shit she picks up from the wild doesn't taste as good these days or is disappearing. Could it be because it hasn't rained recently or maybe nature's just dying :(

I will post in this thread, because I want to have nightmares.

So, goodnight, /spcg/. I love Tenma. Today's stream was short, which is better, for reasons I'm too lazy and tired to explain. I will post less. Maybe even not post my ritual. Posting here won't get me to Tenma. I need to work on myself more and this place takes too much time out of my life. I will juice and jig if I feel like it, and will probably continue posting my good morning and goodnight, but nothing more, really.

Riku's kinda similar to Sakana in the sense that he hit jackpot with his less conventional hires. The difference being I don't think he really cares as much about them.
Also doesn't help that she was part of an ultimately failed project.
