Subaru's kindness knows no limits, so he's back for another round to bail out his bum/NEET 'friend' Echidna.
However, Echidna won't let such a golden opportunity pass without extorting him for all his worth!
"Gooooood morning everyone! This is the lovely DDonna!"
"... And I'm Subaru."
"And welcome to the stream! Please give us a minute to get situated, then we'll get right to your generous donations!"
DDonnaTeaLover: Good morning DDonna-sama, and may I say that it is once again an honor to be a part of your stream.
ilovesubarukun003: YES! YES! YES! OH HELL YES! MORE SUBARU-KUN, HERE WE COME!
DDonnaTeaLover: !ilovesubarukun003 You again? Before more people arrive, can you please refrain from encouraging others to move their attention away from DDonna-sama? This is her stream, and I don't think she appreciates being second fiddle to her 'roommate'.
ilovesubarukun003: !DDonnaTeaLover EAT SHIT, TEALOVER. YOU CAN GIVE THE PASTY BITCH ALL THE ATTENTION YOU WANT, BUT I'M ONLY HERE FOR SUBARU-KUN!
For the second time, against his better judgement, Subaru agreed to feature on Echidna's peep-show livestream. It had been a few days since his debut on Echidna's channel where he worked with her 'DDonna' persona to entertain an online crowd in exchange for tips. It was a wash for her at first, but when he accidentally appeared on screen one day, viewers and donations surged to give Echidna the most profitable night of her e-girl career. She needed to do something to pay her rent, and since Subaru knew that the convenience store wouldn't take her back for eating all the hot-bar items she was supposed to throw away, he figured that helping her was easier than paying for her half. Again.
"You ready?" Echidna asked, looking over her shoulder from her cross legged position on the ground. Today she chose to wear a black tank-top and hoodie, a pair of dark gray short-shorts with a white trim, and dark thigh-high socks to round out her look. It took her a while, but she was able to pick out the blackest garments the thrift store had available, even if she did have to fight off a few others with the same goal in mind. If there ever was a look that shouted 'big tiddy goth gf', this was it.
"Ready as I'll ever be." Subaru replied without a hint of emotion to his voice, sitting on her bed with his back against the headboard. While Echidna always liked to dress cute for her streams, Subaru kept what he rolled out of bed with and remained in his gray sweatpants and white undershirt. He didn't want anyone watching to think that he actually cared about being here beyond the minimum he promised he would commit to. "Just remember what we agreed on, okay?"
"Yeah, yeah…" Echidna looked off the side as she scratched the back of her head, disappointed that he had imposed limits on what they would do together. Subaru's terms were that he would not do anything he felt uncomfortable with, Echidna wouldn't do anything too X-rated in his presence, and under no circumstances were they to do anything that involved touching each other. They were a simple set of rules for Subaru, but to Echidna they were heavy restrictions on the requests she would be allowed to accept. But in order to get him on board, she agreed to his terms anyway.
"Alright everyone, it looks like we're ready to begin!" Echidna said in her seductive voice, clapping her hands together in front of her as if she was preparing for a meal. Upon her signal, a plethora of participants chimed in.
MoneyBag$: Heyyy Subaru, so nice to see you again!
Crusch_Claw: Indeed, it is nice to see that comforting face once again.
PraiseTheSun: Either those pants come off at some point, or I'm just wasting my time here
TummyLover: oh my, what a handsome thing you have there Miss DDonna~ it would be such a shame if his clothes came off~
GoldenChomperz: I'm confused, how does this site work?
ilovesubarukun003: !GoldenChomperz PUT IN A REQUEST TIED TO A DONATION YOU THINK IS APPROPRIATE, THEN SEND IT IN
BigRedSaint: !ilovesubarukun003 Why do you always type in capital letters?
ilovesubarukun003: !BigRedSaint I BROKE MY CAPS LOCK KEY DURING THE FIRST STREAM. I'D REPLACE MY KEYBOARD, BUT ALL MY MONEY IS CURRENTLY GOING TO THIS HOE BAG THAT LIVES IN SUBARU-KUN'S HOUSE
2tired2sleep: ilovesubarukun003 look, you're right, but unfortunately direct insults to DDonna is against stream rules. sry

DDonnaTeaLover: GOOD.
A bit of a chaotic opening, but completely within Echidna's expectations. She knew that most people currently in the stream were there for Subaru over her, but she didn't care so long as she was raking in donations. If the request was for something she herself didn't have to do, then that was even better for her lazy NEET ass. She would normally flash a little something to get the ball rolling, but she didn't even have to ask twice before the first donation came in. As expected, it was for Subaru.
MoneyBag$: $100 Donation - It's time to get rid of that pesky shirt, Subaru!
"Done." Without any complaining, Subaru took the easy request and removed his undershirt and threw it off to the side, landing on Echidna's recently-cleaned floors. His chest now bare for the viewing crowd to see, the audience wasted no time in giving their varying approvals of his athletic body.
ilovesubarukun004: $30 Donation - STRIKE A MANLY POSE! SOMETHING COOL!
DDonnaTeaLover: I'm sorry, didn't this person just get banned?
"Don't care! If she pays, she stays!" Echidna quickly called out her favorite 'white-knight'. His eagerness to please was reliable most of the time when it came to keeping the piece, but his obsession with her was threatening the Subaru-focused viewers, so Echidna had to set him straight before she lost money.
"So, what, like this?" While she was defending one of her patrons, Subaru flexed one arm and pointed his other on an angle towards the ceiling, doing his best to imitate one of those Greek statues he saw in history books.
ilovesubarukun004: ASDFGHJKL
ilovesubarukun004: I LOVE THIS WEBSITE!
MoneyBag$: !ilovesubarukun004 Nice follow-up request!
DDonnaTeaLover: !MoneyBag$ Excuse you, but I believe we're forgetting who the real star of this show is!
MoneyBag$: !DDonnaTeaLover You mean it's not Subaru?
DDonnaTeaLover: $50 Donation - DDonna-sama, please remove your jacket.
DDonnaTeaLover: $75 Donation - And your top as well, if you don't mind.
"Now that's what I'm talking about!" Happy to have any excuse to remove her clothes, Echidna stripped from her upper layers until she was left in nothing but her comfort bra from the waist up. TeaLover was blowing up the chat with sweating emojis as usual, simping over her simple but cute cross legged pose on the floor, but hardly anyone else was commenting on her. In fact, even more people seemed to be fawning over Subaru now, especially now that he dropped his 'manly' pose for something a little more intellectual. Seeing him in the webcam's preview window, Echidna turned to face him and his choice of literature he got from her bedside bookshelf.
"Subaru are yo—are you reading Dick Fight Island?"
"Better than staring at the back of your head for however long you plan on streaming." Even in front of the virtual crowd, Subaru minced no words when talking to his freeloader flatmate, voluntarily reading yaoi manga over watching the admittedly attractive woman in front of him. Echidna could hardly believe that he chose that out of all the books on her bookshelf. She barely made it halfway through the first volume before dropping the series, and she doubted that Subaru of all people would find it interesting. "You know, this story has a lot more going for it than the title suggests. I'm a sucker for tournament arcs." She tried to play off his disinterest in her body and go back to entertaining the chat, but their interests remained tied to whatever it was Subaru chose to do.
Crusch_Claw: The title sounds promising. What kind of conflict is involved?
PraiseTheSun: Forget conflict, does it have any illustrations?
GoldenChomperz: I am also in favor of viewing the illustrations!
TheCamShowCritic: You call this a livestream? If this livestream were toilet paper, I wouldn't dare use it and dishonor my perfectly-sculpted backside! Tell me, what possessed you to think that allowing a man such as that rapscallion on your bed was a good idea? Hm? I certainly hope this wasn't your idea, lest I be heartbroken and stricken with disappointment that a face as beautiful as yours could have such an absent mind. Being someone of my status and power, it is only natural for me to have over a hundred girlfriends, all of whom have been trained to love me, yet here I am giving my precious time over to you. Who knows, you may be one of my wives someday as well, at which point I will personally congratulate you for making the smartest choice of your life. I am a humble and gracious man who has no intention of letting someone with outstanding features like yours go to waste for the expense of some nobody scoundrel that's probably squatting in your place of living at your expense. In this live review, I will prove to all of you that not only is e-girl culture dead, but those that cling to it are either desperate or just plain stupid. However, for a humble fee, I can sway my reviews to shine upon your channel under a brighter light, one that generously shows my numerous fans your 'content' in a chance that they may find your work slightly amusing.

Minervois: I could tell where that was going, and I didn't like it.
DDonnaTeaLover: Goodness, and I thought I laid my advances on too thick…

2tired2sleep: im getting real sick of this one, even if she is donating. gonna try banning her ip address, see if that works
GoldenChomperz: Is this… normal, here?
Echidna pinched the bridge of her nose. Her chat was falling apart, her co-star was indifferent, and everyone seemed too worked up to think about sending in requests for either of them. At this rate, she wouldn't even have enough money to buy snacks from the dollar store anymore, condemned to live a life of eating Subaru's homemade granola, which he claimed was 'healthier' than a diet of Cool Ranch Doritos and Mountain Dew: Code Red.
TummyLover: $100 Donation - Subaru, was it? take a knife from your kitchen and run the flat side of it against your belly, slowly if you can~
That weird-ass request was enough to make everyone drop what they were doing. The chat stopped bickering, Subaru stopped reading, and Echidna broke out into a mild sweat over how to respond to something like this.
"Uh… I'm gonna go ahead and veto that one." Subaru meekly replied, trying to cover his fear by staring intently at Echidna's yaoi manga. Upon his request, she moused over to deny that one donation, forgoing the hundred dollars in exchange for Subaru's increased likelihood of staying.
TummyLover: phooey~
GoldenChomperz: $50 Donation - When you're finished reading, please give a summary of the plot and your opinion on the series.
"Yes! Absolutely!" Subaru yelled, putting his book down to point at Echidna's webcam. "Just the request I was hoping for! Whoever you are, you're the best!"
GoldenChomperz: Haha I don't know about that! I'm just interested in literature and you seem like someone with a good head on his shoulders. I look forward to your review!
ilovesubarukun005: !GoldenChomperz YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW LUCKY YOU ARE
2tired2sleep: !ilovesubarukun005 how in the fuck?
ilovesubarukun005: !2tired2sleep BURNER CELL, BITCH
xXxShadow_GardenxXx: $150 Donation - Subaru, please put your hand against the wall behind DDonna's bed, then make a squeezing motion.
"... Why?" Subaru was busy trying to speed-read his way through Dick Fight Island to pay too much attention to the chat (which was Echidna's job to monitor), but a request as weird as groping the wall was enough for him to question it.
"Who the hell cares, it's easy money!" Echidna whipped her head around to shout at him, angry that he could pass up such a simple request. "Come on, don't chicken out just because it isn't 'normal'! Take a chance, live a little!"
"Alright, fine, just accept it already! Damn!" Subaru snapped back at her as she accepted the request for him, handing the book off to her in order to stand on her bed with his hands free. After getting some balance on her old, cheap mattress that hardly had any level of support to it, Subaru put a hand to her off-white wall and pressed his fingertips against the surface, making a grasping motion over and over again. "Like this?"
xXxShadow_GardenxXx: A little lower, if you don't mind.
Subaru lowered his hand's position upon the wall and repeated his grabbing movements. "How's this?"
xXxShadow_GardenxXx: Bliss. Nothing but bliss.
TummyLover: here i was thinking my tastes were a bit strange~
BigRedSaint: To each their own, it seems.
MoneyBag$: Meh, at least his shirt is off
DDonnaTeaLover: It never ceases to amaze me how some people choose to spend their money…
ilovesubarukun005: !DDonnaTeaLover YOU KNOW YOUR 'MASTER' SPENDS MOST OF HER MONEY ON GAS STATION SNACKS AND FUNKO POPS, RIGHT?
"Hey, Echidna? Can I stop now?" Subaru asked with some shakiness to his voice.
"What? Why?"
"... Because I think I can feel a heart beating on the other side."
xXxShadow_GardenxXx: $300 Donation - Please remove your hand from the wall immediately! Thank you!
"Subaru, hand off the wall!"
"Yep!" Seeing an easy opportunity to make a few hundred bucks, Echidna sanctioned Subaru's request once he was paid to do so. Subaru took a few steps away from the wall before sitting back down, taking the manga back from Echidna before sitting down closer to the laptop. "So, uh… Why did I feel a heartbeat in the wall, and why was it so fast? Seriously, it felt like someone just ran a marathon, or like they were getting touched for the first time in their li—"
xXxShadow_GardenxXx: $50 Donation - Please stop talking about it!
"You heard the freak, Subaru! Zip it!" Echidna barked as she accepted the money, leaping on every 'easy' cash-grab moment that came up. With all the ridiculous bullshit that the chat was asking of Subaru, this was already her most profitable stream ever, even with the denied ones. This stream had momentum going, and she was keen on keeping the ball rolling for as long as she could.
"You know what? That one user paid us good money for me to read this manga, so I'm gonna honor that commitment and follow through!" Subaru boldly claimed, crossing his legs on Echidna's bed as he firmly gripped both sides of the open book. "If anyone has any more requests, forward them to DDonna for now!"
ilovesubarukun005: !GoldenChomperz THANKS A LOT
GoldenChomperz: !ilovesubarukun005 Sorry! :(
With that, Subaru buried his face into the book, much to Echidna's dissatisfaction. But he was technically correct, they were obligated to follow through with the request attached to the accepted donation, so she couldn't argue with him. But she was still a performer herself, so she adapted to the situation.
"Alright everyone, it looks like Subaru is a little more than halfway through his assigned reading, so how about I keep you all entertained in the meantime?"
The chat suddenly became dead silent. Echidna knew the only reason that the majority of the women were staying was because Subaru was still visible in the webcam, even though he was just reading silently to himself. The promise of him finishing the book and returning to the demands of chat is what they were clinging onto, and Echidna had to make sure that string of hope remained secure. But until he was finished, Echidna knew there was at least one person left in chat that she could rely on.
DDonnaTeaLover: $100 Donation - DDonna-sama, could I be so bold as to ask you to remove your brassiere?
Ilovesubarukun005: SERIOUSLY, WHY DOES THIS GUY TALK LIKE HE WAS BORN 400 YEARS AGO? THIS ISN'T THE RENAISSANCE, BUDDY
"For you TeaLover? Anything~." 'For the right price, of course.' is what Echidna wanted to end with, but she kept her mouth shut and instead reached behind her to unhook her bra. As she reached behind herself, she took this chance to peek at Subaru to see if he was checking her out, but she clicked her teeth when she saw his face completely buried in the book. The book covered his entire face, so he could only hear the sound of her bra landing on the floor, completely blind to Echidna's bare chest just a couple feet away. She shook her chest side to side in hopes that she would show up in his peripheral vision, but if anything the added movement just made him turn the book and his head away from her even more. "Tch."
For while the chat went by slowly, Echidna only received requests from TeaLover while the remainder of the chat members layed low, patiently waiting for Subaru to finish reading and join back in on the fun. She paraded her half-naked body around in a series of different poses, from lounging, to dynamic, to sexy, she knew how to work herself in order to rile men up like dogs. It worked on TeaLover, and it was only a matter of time before Subaru fell victim to her charms, then the rest of her audience as well. Speaking of whom, her entire chat all started to comment at once. That request to put her leg behind her head really must've struck a chord with chat.
Crusch_Claw: How very interesting. I never would have considered this.
PraiseTheSun: I must say, this is more entertaining than mineself could have anticipated.
TummyLover: how very amusing~
MoneyBag$: Being half-naked certainly adds to the experience 3
Ilovesubarukun005: THIS ROCKS!
BigRedSaint: You're doing great, buddy!
GoldenChomperz: How very informative! I'm very glad I joined this chat!
SweaterPrincess: Echi
SweaterPrincess: DDonna, I mean. Y-You may want to look behind you…
"Hm?" Listening to her faithful moderator, Echidna put her leg down and turned back to see what had gotten her chat all riled up. "You gotta be fucking kidding me."
Behind Echidna was the whiteboard that she kept tucked behind her bookshelf, set up on its easel and full of Subaru's handwritten analysis of Dick Fight Island Volume 1. Standing beside the whiteboard was Subaru, a black marker in one hand while he used the other to better enunciate and project his words.
"So to close it out, Volume 1 has led me to believe that Harto will be the one to win The Great Wyrm Tournament and unite the 8 Islands, but with that boyfriend of his getting jealous over every guy that he has to fight, I can see Harto's path not being as straightforward as most mainstream shonen. For the first volume, I would give Dick Fight Island a solid 7.5/10. Nothing truly groundbreaking that'll revolutionize manga as we know it, but it's a silly read with a good sense of humor. I think if I was into dicks I would've rated it higher, but I'm not so I didn't."
"Oh my god, how long have you been talking about this!?"
"Like almost ten minutes." That made Echidna's eyes widen. "You were so wrapped up in doing your silly poses that you must've zoned out completely. You seriously didn't hear me talking this whole time?" Thinking back, Echidna didn't recall ever checking her webcam feed, assuming that all was in place so long as she didn't knock into her monitor. She was so engrossed in her own physique, that she completely failed to notice that Subaru had finished the book, took out her whiteboard, and made several bulleted notes, charts, and even a few well-made drawings depicting the characters, all while talking right over her head. Echidna made herself flustered from thinking that the crowd was finally on her side, so she dealt with her feelings through the method she was most familiar with.
By deflecting onto the closest available scapegoat.
"Hey, guess what everybody? Now that Subaru has finished his dumb book, he can get back to fulfilling your requests!"
"It's your book, Echidna."
"OKAY EVERYONE, TIME TO FLOOD SUBARU WITH REQUESTS!"
PraiseTheSun: $200 Donation - Strip naked and do jumping jacks.
"No." Subaru replied without a second thought, crossing his arms in disapproval.
Crusch_Claw: I will match that donation if you accept!
"Still no."
ilovesubarukun006: $300 Donation - JUST SHOW ME YOUR DICK! PLEASE OH PLEASE SHOW IT TO ME, EVEN IF IT'S JUST FOR A FEW SECONDS! I CAN'T SPEND ANY MORE THAT THIS, I SWEAR THIS IS THE BEST I CAN DO!
"Hell no!"
ilovesubarukun006: OK HOW ABOUT $301
BigRedSaint: Come on girls, don't you think Subaru wants to take a break?
TummyLover: I'm upping my previous offer to $200
xXxShadow_GardenxXx: ilovesubarukun006 I can match your $300
ilovesubarukun006: !xXxShadow_GardenxXx :HANDSHAKEEMOJI:
"I am not showing my dick on camera! Period! Anyone who wants to send in a request, make sure my dick is not involved, then maybe I'll consider it!"
CappyWuvsU: $1,000 Donation - Show us your ass and let DDonna peg you!
CappyWuvsU: Peg him HARD, DDonna! REAL HARD!
"GAAAH!" That user's message was enough to make Subaru jump a step back, his hands shooting back to cover his clenched buttcheeks. The ghost-pains of being penetrated, by Echidna of all people, was more than enough to shake Subaru to his core. Surely there was no way that Echidna or her moderators would allow such intense vulgarity to—
"E-EEEH!?" Echidna seemed especially taken aback, making a panicked face like someone had just read a page from her diary out loud. "I-I mean, I'd love to, but I don't think I have the equipment to do that right now!" Echidna frantically looked around for a solution, desperate to be able to meet the demand for the promised amount of a thousand dollars. She knew that among her private collection of toys, she didn't have anything she could use as a strap-on. "Unless… you have something I could use?" She turned to Subaru with a hopeful look in her eyes, twirling a lock of her snow-white hair around her finger. At first he looked annoyed, then he looked pissed, then he looked happy that she had asked.
"Oh that's right, I forgot! I totally have a spare strap-on in my closet you could use. It's been a while, so it slipped my mind." Subaru couldn't have spoken in a more sarcastic tone, but Echidna and her skull as dense as lead was too thick to pick up on it.
"WH—REALLY!?" Not only her, but most people in the chat seemed too worked up over the idea of Subaru getting pegged to question if he was being serious or not.
2tired2sleep: oh wow, he's actually going for it. hell, i'll chip in for that
Minervois: Promise me you will prepare yourself with proper foreplay first, and I can contribute!
SweaterPrincess: W-Wow, I-I um… Whoa… J-Just take my money, p-please!
TummyLover: it had better be huge, I want to see it reach deep~
GoldenChomperz: IS THIS REALLY ALLOWED!?
DDonnaTeaLover: B-But DDonna-sama, I thought I was going to be your first! I've been practicing every day, just for you!
ilovesubarukun005: … HMMM
CappyWuvsU: Holy shit, I didn't think he'd take me seriously.

"Yeah, lemme just run and get it real quick." Subaru hopped off the bed and took his shirt with him, walking to the door to leave. Before he left entirely, he poked his head back in to say one final thing to his co-host. "Don't hit that accept button until I get back!"
"You got it, pal!" Echidna gave him a thumbs up before he ducked out of her door and left for his room. She was practically bouncing on her ass in excitement. "Wow! I can't believe he's actually into this! Alright everyone, let's all sit tight and wait for Subaru to come back! Then we can kick this show up a notch!"
CappyWuvsU: Seriously, how the fuck do I undo this!? I'll delete my account if I have to!
MoneyBag$: I never would have guessed Subaru would be into this sort of thing…
Crusch_Claw: Neither did I, but you won't hear me complaining.
PraiseTheSun: !Crusch_Claw On that, we can agree.
TummyLover: ahaha, this will be fun to watch~
CappyWuvsU: I feel like I'm being ignored here, and I'm not appreciating it one bit!
ilovesubarukun006: I'M GONNA GET LUNCH WITH MY SISTER, HAVE FUN EVERYONE. SOMETHING TELLS ME YOU MIGHT BE WAITING HERE A WHILE
"Hm? What makes you say that?" Echidna asked the user out loud, but she never responded. She must've been bluffing, Subaru's room was right down the hall! He would be back in no time, Echidna would be able to live out one of her many perverse fantasies, and she would get paid a thousand dollars to do it! And the best part was that there were no losers in this exchange, everyone got what they wanted! All she had to do was wait for Subaru to come back, so that's exactly what she did.
She waited.
And waited.
And waited.
And waited.
Until finally, it hit her.
"He's not coming back, is he?" Echidna hung her head in shame, embarrassed that it took her this long to realize that Subaru had deceived her and used this outrageous request as a means to escape from his streaming duty. It was an admirable ploy, but unfortunately for him, Echidna had anticipated his early departure and decided to enact her backup plan. "Well chat, it looks like Subaru bailed on us. But don't you worry, your favorite streamer DDonna has a solid Plan B!" Echidna began to put her clothes back on, then finally stood up from her cross legged position and took her laptop along for the journey. She would need to mess with a few settings for the next part of her stream. "Who here wants to see compression pants?"
The chat went dead silent.
"Who here wants to see Subaru in compression pants?"
The chat collectively lost their minds, sending in donations simply for putting that image in their heads.
It was now late morning, less than an hour until noon, the ideal time for Subaru to start his weekend yoga session. It was a way to unwind his tense muscles and destress from the crushing reality of living with a horny sociopath. He had changed into a black muscle tee and a pair of orange compression pants, both of which hugged against his skin to the point where anyone could see the outline of his extremities. After laying his yoga mat on the ground in their living room, Subaru set some calming music to play from his phone as he sat down and began to relax his body and mind, preparing himself to enter a state of total zen and tranquility.
"Heyyyyy buddy! Mind if I join you?" As if she was created for the sole purpose of annoying him, Echidna looked down from her standing position right behind him. She had a white sports bra, black yoga pants, and a rolled up green yoga mat tucked under her arm.
"What happened to the stream?" Though he was clearly trying to clear his mind, Subaru rescinded with an annoyed tone to his voice. It had been less than an hour since he ditched her, and he wasn't keen on coming back to the streaming scene anytime today. Or anytime in the future, if he could help it. Reading and reviewing yaoi manga was a surprisingly fun turn of events, but everything other than that was more than uncomfortable. He could still feel the heartbeat he felt through the wall reverberating through his right hand.
"Oh, I just thought it was about time to leave my room, get some fresh air..." Echidna was ready to prattle on about why she left her stream, but the look on Subaru's face told her flat out that he wasn't buying it. "Okay fine! I felt bad that I made you uncomfortable during the thing I wanted to do, so it's only fair that I give something you want to do a fair shot." Echidna looked away from him and pouted. "Even if it is something as boring as yoga…" Subaru tilted his head in curiosity, trying to determine if Echidna was full of shit as usual. But from the strained look on her face, it seemed as if she was truly expecting to exert herself to uncomfortable levels. Subaru saw his chance for a little revenge and decided to take it.
"Alright, you can join if you really want to."
"YES! Thank you, you won't regr—"
"BUT!" Subaru snapped his eyes up to peer at hers, pointing a finger up at her accusingly, "You have to keep up with my pace, and I don't wanna hear any bitching about how hard it is! Got it?" Like a trained soldier, Echidna used her free arm to give him a phony salute.
"Got it!"
"Good, now set your mat next to mine and I'll instruct you."
"Actually," Echidna began, making Subaru already regret his decision, "can you move your mat to the other side? I feel like I'd learn better face-to-face rather than side-to-side, y'know?"
"Fine, then you set your mat on the other side so we can begin."
"Mmmnnn…"
Subaru sighed. "What now?"
"It's just… I'd really like to be in the spot you usually use when you do it by yourself, that way I can hopefully get the same kind of passion for this as you do!" Subaru continued to look up at her, scanning her for lies or deceit, but she seemed genuinely eager to get started. He looked down at her admittedly nice legs to look at each side, checking for any smartphone-shaped bulges in her pockets, or any kind of recording device on her person that could be giving her an ulterior motive for doing this. His investigation was hindered when she began swaying her hips left and right. "See something you liiiike~?" she teased, waggling her eyebrows as she looked down at him with a smug look on her face.
"Not even a little bit!" Subaru concluded that he had seen enough and decided to comply with her silly request, standing up and dragging his yoga mat a few feet so that he was on the other side of the small room.
Once Echidna laid down her mat and Subaru repositioned his, they both took a cross legged seat and faced each other, Echidna's back to the door and Subaru's to the corner of the room, staring each other down. Subaru raised an eyebrow at her, but Echidna was all smiles, like this was all going according to plan for her.
Subaru would change that.
"How about we start with a forearm plank? Something simple." Subaru assumed his position on his arms and toes, setting an example for Echidna to follow. Though he held the form rather easily, the sheltered streamer could hardly last a few seconds before collapsing under her own weight. Again and again she would rise to plank, but each time she seemed to last for an even shorter amount of time, quickly losing what little strength she had available. "Hmm… Maybe we should switch off to another pose."
"NO!" Echidna shouted, taking Subaru by surprise. He was especially shocked when she used that energy in her voice to rise to a plank again, gritting her teeth through the struggle. "You hold that pose as long as you can, I can keep up!" The level of dedication she was showing was admirable, Subaru had never seen her so committed to anything that didn't involve eating or being naked. He felt silly for doubting Echidna and her intentions, so Subaru decided to take it easy on her, if only a little bit.
"Here, why don't we switch to the upward-facing dog pose?" Subaru allowed his body to rest on his front before putting both palms down and bringing his torso up to look at the ceiling, his buttcheeks clenching tightly behind him as his legs.
Not wanting to fall behind, Echidna attempted to do the same. First she flopped her body out of a plank, lying on her belly far longer than Subaru had expected. Next, she put both palms down parallel to her shoulders, and when she pushed up with all her might, she found herself unable to lift her own upper body. Subaru questioned how the hell this woman managed to get out of bed every morning, but that's when she started kicking in place, using the momentum to inch her body upwards a little bit at a time. After a few seconds of trying, Echidna finally got herself into the same position as Subaru, looking up at their cheap drywall ceiling while she felt the weak muscles in her abdomen burn as they strained beyond normal use.
"This is—nothing!" Echidna was bold in her declaration, even though she was saying it between staggered breaths. Her arms were shaking and she was starting to sweat to an alarming degree for someone who had only been doing yoga for less than a few minutes, but still she held her place. Subaru continued to be impressed with Echidna's dedication to his craft, suddenly feeling like his suffering at the hand of her stream was nothing compared to what she was putting herself through now. Subaru considered coming back for another round one day, maybe he would try to step out of his comfort zone since she was going so above and beyond for him.
"I gotta admit, you're doing way better than I thought you would. Good job."
"Hah!—Thank you!—Hoo!" She finally got the attention and praise from Subaru she had desired for so long, but Echidna was too wrapped up in holding this nightmare pose to fully soak it in like she wanted to. "Though I—Hnng!—I wish I could see something—Hahn!—really impressive." Echidna looked at him with the closest thing to a smirk she could muster, trying to rile him up even while he body was being strained to its limits.
"Hmm… Okay, here's something I saw trending on the internet a while back. See if you can keep up with this!" Subaru relaxed from an upward-facing dog pose into a position popularized by a certain fighting game, one that demanded that he rest his head on his crossed arms while his perfectly straightened legs raised his ass high into the air. Even though his back was arched at an alarming angle and every muscle in his body was being strained, Subaru looked up at Echidna with a look of accomplishment smugly written across his face. "Think you can handle it?"
Echidna's eyes widened, both impressed with Subaru's physique and confident in her inability to keep up with her highly-flexible friend. But she knew what was at stake, not to mention that she had him right where she wanted him all this time. Ignoring the screaming agony of her overworked self, Echidna dragged her failing body to match his ridiculous posture, sticking her ass high into the air as if she was some wild animal presenting herself to a mate. She would've given anything to see Subaru's behind right now, but for the moment, that was a sight that only the faithful viewers of DDonna's steam could enjoy.
Before they had started their session earlier that morning, Echidna set up numerous hidden cameras she had gotten as a gift from one of her viewers, cleverly placing in the nooks and crannies of their apartment. One such camera was set up in the corner of their living room, anticipating that Subaru would frequent his usual yoga spot, but getting him to reposition himself so that his back faced the camera was icing on the cake.
The first pose showed off his butt and legs, the second one boasted his rear and back muscles, and now this masterpiece of a position was giving DDonna's audience a perfect display of Subaru's ass as well as his junk, both being hugged by his skin-tight pants and his very bendy position. After she turned the camera on via her laptop, Echidna had forsaken her phone in order to mitigate his suspicions of her, so all she could do was look forward to the playback recording when she was finished. This stream had to be pure gold at this point, there was no way anyone who was into Subaru would complain if she jacked up the price to access her next stream, especially if they had more of this to look forward to. But Echidna wanted more.
Against her better judgement, Echidna taunted him by holding the pose and swaying her butt side-to-side, looking up at him with a confident smirk that egged him on to do the same. It hurt, it hurt, it hurt her hips so damn bad every time she enticingly swished her hips to and fro, but she needed to plant the idea in his head somehow, and she was running out of clever quips to use.
"Heh, think you're hot shit all of a sudden, huh?" Subaru shifted in place a little. "Well check this out!" Echidna felt like she was gonna flatline at the incredible display of Subaru shaking his butt the same way she did, only faster and into the direct view of a camera linked to an untold quantity of viewers. Echidna could just barely hear the clapping sounds coming from his waist area, not from his dummy-thick asscheeks, but from his junk jostling around within the tight confines of his pants, slapping against his inner thighs with every shake of his butt. The camera was capturing it all, they was his ass and crotch swayed unanimously with every stride, going back and forth like the coveted pocketwatch of a renowned hypnotist. Echidna knew that her chat must be eating this up like savages, and she would let her body take whatever toll it had to in order to keep him going.
That was the plan anyway, but the sound of a large *THUD* from inside their walls made them both jump out of their poses, Echidna was fine but Subaru involuntarily squeezed his legs together and accidentally pressed his balls against each other.
"GAAH, FUCK!" Subaru was on his knees with his face on the floor, both his hands cupping his groin to prepare it for the inevitable pain that was soon to come. He wiggled his hips as he moaned in pain, unintentionally waving his ass and covered genitals at the camera like some sort of tease.
"What the hell was that?" Echidna asked, wondering about the noise that threw them off and ruined her shot. "Also, are you okay?"
"I'm fine." He lied, but he wasn't about to give Echidna an excuse to 'nurse his balls back to health' and stream it. "As for the noise… This is kinda specific, but it sounded like someone collapsing. Like, someone in our walls just… fainted. Weird."
"Yeah, really weird…" Echidna pondered, wondering if there was a connection between that sound and the strange request they had accepted earlier. However, her train of thought was derailed when Subaru suddenly fell over, the pain from his testicles clacking together finally setting in.
"Owwww…" he groaned in pain, rolling on his side, ending the display of his ass-ets to the virtual crowd. After a few moments of whining, he picked himself up and started to make his way towards the hallway. "Rest up, you did good for your first time. I'm gonna go lie down for… I dunno, a while." Subaru said to Echidna as he limped away, taking very small steps as he did.
Echidna was left to wallow in a small puddle of her own sweat and tears, wheezing like a fish out of water atop her yoga mat. When she heard the sound of Subaru's door click shut, she forced her body to rise and take step after shaking step closer to where she had hidden her camera, cleverly masking its appearance among the houseplant that hung from the ceiling. When she finally made it in front of the camera, she held up a victory sign with her hand, breathing heavily against the lens.
"Well everybody—Hah!—there you have it! Does DDonna deliver—Hoo!—or what?" Echidna took a dramatic pause, giving the viewers a chance to type the replies that she couldn't view at the moment. She used this as a chance to regain her breath, wanting to look composed for her outro shot. "That's all for now, but be sure to like, donate, and subscribe to know when my next stream is! It's laundry day tomorrow, and Subaru always folds his clothes shirtless, so look forward to another hidden camera special! And remember everyone," Echidna winked into the camera, "DDonna loves you!"
She delivered her last line and shut the camera off, right before her body finally gave out and collapsed onto the floor, bringing the camera, plant, and white plastic pot they were both settled in down with her. First she hit the floor, then the pot unleashed its contents atop her head, mixing in with her sweat and perfectly white hair, giving her the appearance of a deranged vagrant that had just wandered into a nice man's apartment. She would have to shower and replace Subaru's one plant that he had politely asked her to never touch, but that was a job for 'Echidna in the future'. Right now, 'Echidna dirty and on the floor' had a self-appointed task of laying down until she recovered what little energy her body was able to retain, and she would be damned if she slacked-off on her slacking-off duties.
And so, our favorite streamer laid in that pile of dirt until the hunger associated with lunchtime kicked in, at which point she went up to Subaru's door and begged at the base of his locked door for food money.
"Bitch, take a shower!"
"Feed me!"
