I Just Happened to See

Perverted Seona-nim isn't doing anything bad, no no. It just happened to be visible. I didn't do anything bad.

But still… still… how were we supposed to study together? I turned it over in my head.

Hmm… should I amp up Maem-nim's cuteness? Maem-nim's the kind of person who puts out a little bun-nae herself, so… like, in light novels… manga… anime, when the tsundere? Or the pure? Heroines go kyaaaah like that.

I could just make it happen, right?

Yeah. I'll do it for her. Trust me.

What's the safest option?

Skirt flip. That scene always shows up if you watch Japanese anime—well, youth series, specifically.

I'm not even an anime person, but if you want to talk with viewers you've got to know a little anime. So I dug around a ton. Eheheh.

Those shows were the absolute peak of pervy (ahem) energy.

But… think it through. I flip Maem-nim's skirt. Then… eheheh. Maem-nim goes kyaak!! Instant boiling juice, right?

Just imagining it made me laugh. Nothing but laughter came ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠out.

But… I can't do that.

I'm a grown person now. That is clearly sexual harassment. Even if a woman compliments another woman, it can still be harassment.

I only figured that out late. I honestly thought it was fine.

If it hadn't been for Pyeong-nim, I'd still be running around doing bad things to seniors, coworkers, and employees.

Learning really is the truth of the world. It's everything.

So is there another way? I need to help Maem-nim wring out that juice, but nothing solid was coming to me.

"A good method… not a bad one… something nice that still makes Maem-nim's juice go full boil… hmm…"

When you don't know? YouTube, of course!!

Watch YouTube and every answer is already there.

Imagine there's a library somewhere that holds all the knowledge in the world.

Sadly, YouTube is bigger than that.

"Hihiit. So good."

YouTube really did raise people's knowledge by at least ten percent.

And the "algorithm"—that's the truly amazing part… it even makes you review. It loops Shorts with the same content three or four times, so even if you don't want to understand it, even if you don't want to memorize it, it sticks.

Even that perfect YouTube has one sad little flaw.

My algorithm got me too.

There used to be no Japanese anime plot summaries. Now they just pop up.

I watched a couple times and now it keeps feeding me. And the trap is, those summary channels actually make the shows look fun.

I fell for it and watched a few full versions… and the flavor just wasn't there.

"What's… this? Hmm…"

What caught my eye was a slime anime. The protagonist who became a slime.

Something… something… an idea hit me.

Watching Japanese anime, I could feel Japan's pervy energy settling into my body.

"If I use a tiny character to see Maem-nim's panties, that'd be hilarious. She'll go all kyaaaah, right? And that's not even a bad thing!! I just happen to be short so I can see!! Then she does the full girl-power wabababa trying not to show her panties. The juice will go pulse-pulse-pulse-pulse. How's that?"

I thought it myself, and even I was shocked at how creative it was.

What kind of reaction would she give? Would the juice boil?

If she's the type who moans just from ab workouts… this much is nothing!! Euhihi.

So it's not like I want to look just to look!! Really. The character's just short, so the other person's panties happen to be in view.

Eheheh. That's actually funny. How!!

I came up with a brilliant idea just to tease Maem-nim.

I'm really going to see it by pure accident. Not because I wanted to look—whoa!! The character's short so it showed?! Euhihi. That's so funny!!

I clapped a hand over my mouth and grinned like an idiot.

To think up this level of pervy… Japanese anime really is amazing.

"This is peak comedy person behavior!!"

Me, I don't do bad things. This is just funny. Euhihi.

"Gotta try this… euhihi."

I looked up short characters. There were plenty, and I picked one I liked.

I watched how to link a character in VRChat and learned it.

Everything's done, so should I start the stream? But today I kind of wanted to go on late.

There's a reason. Lately when I stream and take game recommendations… chat just floods with stuff like "freeloading again," "just play whatever," "ugh… this again?"

So this time I'm switching it up—I'm going to buy a game myself and bring it.

I've got a console. I ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠looked through game reviews for the next one.

If you only watch reviews, every single game looks fun.

First up was the most famous kart game. The root of all roots.

But the one I actually had fun with was a different kart.

"Whoa… kart… karts are better as item battles… speed races are hard."

Every time I did a speed race I just blocked. Just sat there blocking kids flying in with boosters.

Even if I tried hard I still got eighth, so better to just stop first place!!

But item battles? I locked in hard… anti-jamming headband, balloons, good kart, the works.

I raised them with Dad. We even raised the rainbow gloves.

"Real nostalgia!!"

I burned time just daydreaming.

I daydreamed so hard I never picked a game!! But… today's fine.

I've got something to play!! I started the stream at four.

Late compared to my usual slot, but the mood was already set for everyone to understand.

That works out great for me!!

"Hello everyone. We've got a collab today. Do you know about it?"

"Not a game. We're doing like a discussion thing in VRChat. With Maem-nim."

And then the shocking chats rolled in.

What did I even do? They're already reacting like this? I'll show them the new me.

I don't do that stuff anymore. I didn't know back then. I really just didn't know.

Me, I'm an educated person now!! I learned, so I don't do bad things anymore.

"I… don't do that kind of thing anymore."

"I've grown a lot so I don't do that anymore. I'll show you something new."

Back then I really just didn't know. I never meant to act like that.

The concept I actually wanted was… pure fun, good at chatting, popular, jokes landing every time I open my mouth, good at games, never stuck, YouTube views going hard… that kind of thing.

Not this stuff where every time I talk it's ego fights and ego feasts and dense and stupid and bossy and harassment and bad deeds… none of that.

"I'll really show you. The new Seona. Everyone… I am beep. Now. Version upgraded. Se. O. Na. Beep."

"Wh. What. Do. You mean. I really. Chang. Ed. I am New Seona. Beep."

I really did change. GPT upgrades all the time…!! So a human like me can upgrade too. I'm New Seona too. I upgraded.

"New Seona. New Seona. Beep. I will show you. A good side."

I'll properly show them the changed me.

"So then… beep. What should we do?"

"Under. Stood! I am Seona. I will think about it. One moment. Returning to Seona. Uuuugh… returning to Seona. I have returned as Seona. Success~!!"

I dropped the bit and came back as Seona.

Because of this, I can say it with my chest out. I have grown a ton.

I know how to cut a bit and how to land a landing. Real progress as a streamer. A genuine leap forward.

"We've got a collab today so no games… instead, want to look around the cafe until the collab? How's that sound?"

I checked the clock and that felt right.

Only about an hour left until the collab, roughly, so this was the call.

I opened the cafe and burned time checking the humor board one post at a time.

After I finished those I also read the game recommendations carefully.

I don't get why people recommend soulslikes to me. Other stuff I can shrug off, but soulslikes… if I actually play one it'll be chaos… have they not seen me play? If I do it, chaos of the bad kind.

"There are a lot of soulslikes… you all know what happens if I play one, right?"

I said how I really felt and then stared straight at chat.

"Oof… a lot of people suddenly look mad…"

I clicked the usernames of the heated ones to check… minimum six months of follows. Subs for a month or more… real angels.

They've watched a lot, so they know me best.

"Hmm… got it. I'll go get ready for the collab now."

I logged into VRChat. How did Maem-nim already know?

I moved to the invited spot. There were just two chairs there.

"Maem-nim. Can you hear me?"

"Hello Seona-nim~ I can hear you."

"Hmm… I see. Euhihi."

"Why. Why? Hiheehee. Why? Why again?"

"It's nothing!"

If I tilt just a little from here, I could probably see her panties? Ah. Ahcha. No, me, I'm not a bad person. If it's visible I look. That's it.

If it's not visible, I don't look. That's the kind of person I am.

I'm going to make a firm promise with myself right here before we start.

I saw it because it was visible. I will not move to try to see it. That would be bad. I'm only working for Maem-nim's boiling juice. Absolutely, absolutely!! I must not do bad things. Seona has promised.

I'm not going to walk up and go, so what color are your panties? That is one hundred—no, one thousand percent sexual harassment and a bad thing.

So for me, I just saw it because it was visible. And now that helps Maem-nim's juice boil.

If I can't see it, I don't look!! Really. No forced juice-boiling!!

"Hihiit. That's so funny."

But the laughter kept coming out of me without permission.

Ugh, when I laugh it feels like… like…

It felt like: Perverted Seona-nim isn't doing anything bad, no no. It just happened to be visible. I didn't do anything bad.

So I had to carve it into my heart for real.

I'm not curious at all. I'm only working for Maem-nim.

I'm helping Maem-nim's natural juice boil. Maem-nim is Seona's colleague. Helping a colleague is a good thing.

That's today's Seona.

I will not force-move my position!!

That is clearly sexual harassment. A bad thing. Something you get ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠scolded for.
