Chapter Title: It's Not a Meeting of the Families!
-----------------------------------------------------------------
I wondered if it wasn't too much of a push, but surprisingly, Yuna agreed.
I even called her mom about it.
She said she really wants to meet me at least once and to bring me straight over tomorrow if there's time.
I worried it might be meddling too much in their family affairs.
But still, it was better than seeing Yuna upset without knowing the full story.
For the Blues' sake, this much was fine. With that thought, I steeled my resolve.
"Ehehe, so you're sleeping over at Da-jeong's place tonight thanks to me?"
"Yeah, looks like it."
After having dinner with the members, Yuna followed me home.
It happened to be an off-day for her, and she wanted to hang out anyway.
Going home now would just make things awkward, so she wanted to avoid it.
"But you okay with that? I have to stream tonight, so I can't really hang out much..."
That part was fine, but I felt a bit worried.
Yuna was off, but I wasn't.
I had to head to the studio soon for work, and as the homeowner, I hated leaving her alone without looking after her.
"Eh, whatever. If I get bored later, I can do a voice cameo or something. Worst case, I can go hang at the unnies' places."
"Aha."
But Yuna just shrugged it off like it was no big deal.
Come to think of it, she could always go play at the unnies' houses.
Ra-hee unnie was off today too, so the two of them could hang out.
"Tofu-ya! I'm heeeere!"
"Nyaaang!"
Or she could play with Tofu like this.
Yuna and Tofu just clicked so well together.
Of course, Ra-hee unnie had gotten close to Tofu from visiting often.
But if unnie and Tofu felt like aunt and nephew,
Yuna and Tofu felt like real friends.
"Ugh, Tofu is too cute... If only my little siblings were even half as adorable..."
Yuna sat on the sofa, Tofu on her lap, stroking his back as she groaned wistfully.
"Your siblings are pretty mischievous, huh?"
"Kinda. The age gap's pretty big too. Especially the youngest—she's still in elementary school."
"Hee... "
I'd never really heard details about her siblings, so I asked casually.
And I learned some pretty surprising stuff.
She even had an elementary school little sister.
That must be tough for sure.
Kids that age have energy to spare.
Her parents must have an amazing relationship to have kids so spread out.
"When Mom and Dad were both working full-time, I basically played mom. You have no idea how hard it was."
"Sounds rough."
I didn't know exactly when, but since Yuna was the same age as me,
going through that before even becoming an adult must've been brutal.
She should've been the one cared for, not caring for others.
"But back then, they were super good kids. Adorable too. Taking care of them had its fun moments."
"Hehe, you sounded just like a real unnie there."
"I am an unnie! A noona too!"
She grumbled like she had complaints, but it was clear she really cherished her siblings.
Not just because they were family, but...
It was that classic big sister vibe—acting annoyed on the outside while always keeping an eye on them deep down.
She's a really cool unnie at home.
At the company, she's always like, "I'm the maknae!" promoting it nonstop.
Sometimes I forget.
The unnies don't really treat Yuna like the maknae that much.
They treat me like the maknae weirdly enough.
The weirdest part? Even in those situations, Yuna's like, "Can't be helped with Da-jeong," totally accepting it.
...Do I really come off that maknae-ish? I don't think so.
Aren't I more mature and cool unnie-like?
Well, sometimes, very rarely, maybe not.
"Hey, Da-jeong, shouldn't you start your stream soon?"
"Ack...! Right."
I'd gotten lost in pointless thoughts and forgotten about the stream.
Thankfully, Yuna reminded me just in time.
Hmm, moments like this make Yuna seem more unnie-like...
No, no. I'm still more mature.
I can't drink coffee, but that doesn't define adulthood.
Yeah, exactly.
*****
About an hour into the stream, Yuna sneaked into the studio.
She said she was bored alone and wanted to do a voice cameo.
I felt bad leaving her out there by herself, so it worked out perfectly. I agreed.
"Cherries, hiii. It's Yuki-chan, dropping by Luru-chan's house after a while."
- Yuha
- Yuha Yuha
- Con Yuki con Yuki
- Yuki-chan, you were here for the finals the other day lol
"Oh, right. Yeah? But I barely showed up on stream then, so it counts as after a while."
She greeted the Cherries, plopped down right next to me, and then watched me play, gasping in awe nonstop.
"Whoa, Luru-chan! How'd you react like that just now?"
"Hm? Wasn't really reacting—just anticipated it."
"Your gamer brain really is on another level..."
- Lmao fr
- Levels are different lol
- Yuki-chan hitting the wall lol
- We feel the wall every time too but...
The constant praise pouring in with every play was a little embarrassing.
But of course, it didn't feel bad.
I even got a bit puffed up from Yuna's compliments and tried some super plays on purpose.
Sometimes I flubbed and felt awkward.
But when I nailed it, Yuna showered me with applause, and I'd puff up proudly with an "Ahem."
Streaming together like that made time fly faster than usual.

- But why's Yuki-chan at Luru-chan's house?
"Hm? Gotta go to my place tomorrow for a family meeting with Luru-chan, so I came to go together?"
"Eh?"
- ?????????????????
- Huh?
- What
- ㅗㅜㅑ ;
- Yuki-chan finally GET Luru-chan...?
Then one Cherry asked, and Yuna replied so casually.
Everyone, me included, froze for a second.
F-Family meeting?!
What are you saying, Yuna...!
💬 Superchat
[‘OnlyOurQueen’ donated 2,000 won for snacks!]
- Nooo Luru-chan is our queen's
"Ehehihit, told ya not to let your guard down. Blame Luke unnie for being careless."
- Lmao fr
- Went for winner spot and crashed hard lol
- I believed in Yuki-chan...
- Maknaes are the meta after all lol
More than that, why are you guys just going along with Yuna's story!
Shouldn't you be calling her out on it?!
"JK, my mom wants to see Luru-chan, so we're going to my place tomorrow together."
"Phew..."
- Ah ok
- Got it
- If mom calls, no choice lol
- Still a family meeting tho
Thankfully, Yuna reined in her joke before it got worse.
But the Cherries agreeing it was a family meeting even after hearing the truth? They deserved a knuckle rap.
You, I remember your nickname.
We'll settle this later.
"Oh, btw, my little sis the maknae likes Luru-chan best out of the members? She even sings your original songs."
"Eh, really?"
- Ooh
- Kyaaaaaaa
- Classy family tastes lol
- Sisters both Cherry squad lololol
Y-Yeah. Even I'm kinda surprised.
I knew her siblings watched Blue LUV streams,
but I didn't expect the maknae sis to like me best.
M-Maybe I should bring some merch tomorrow?
Is giving VTuber merch to an elementary kid weird?
Uu, what to do?
"Who does your second sis like best then?"
"Second sis seems to like Lilith unnie most? She's a boyish kid, so she loves how hyped Lilith unnie gets during games."
- Captain as expected 👻
- Hype queen Lilith lol
- Playstyle different when gaming lol
- Same at my house lol I'm Cherry but bro's Black Moon Squad lol
Ooh, families like that exist too.
Siblings stanning the same group but different biases.
Sounds like a hilarious sight.
"Anyway, Luru-chan, already doing background checks before the family meeting?"
"Eh? B-Background what...?"
I was smiling warmly imagining her family,
when Yuna brought up the "family meeting" joke again, eyeing me slyly.
"Right? This is totally asking about the spouse's siblings to win them over before the meeting."
"Eek...?!"
- What
- Was it?
- Luru-chan... body more honest than mind?
- Admitted the family meeting herself...
- Luru-chan leaving us like this?
A-No! It's not!
What idiot asks that before visiting a friend's house with ulterior motives!
It was pure curiosity!
"If that's what Luru-chan thinks, I'm ready anytime... Come to me! Luru-chan!"
"Nyaaaaack!"
Don't say "come" while hugging me!
And why sniff my neck?!
No kisses on the shoulder!
"Huh, what is it. Body wash scent? You smell so good, Luru-chan."
"Uu, I haven't showered yet, no way."
"Must be your natural scent then. Sniff sniff. Kinda like baby lotion."
"It's embarrassing, stop sniffing, Yuki-chaaan..."
- ㅗㅜㅑ ;
- This is straight-up yuri ;
- Why do they smell so good...?
- Queen! Over here!
- Our Luru-chan sold out? No way...
In the end, we unintentionally gave off business lily vibes and had to end the stream.
And the next day, Yuna tweeted, "Hugged and slept with Luru-chan yesterday?" making it even worse.
Uu...
I might have to think twice before inviting Yuna over again.
