Imagine being a cow of some regard, maybe a high level one maybe you flew under the radar but you've said or done some wild stuff in the past. However, it was just that: the past. You've moved on and are now finding ways to create more interesting or valued content. You've found a place for yourself online leaving behind the shame of your old community. You did not beat the allegations, failed to DFE, and have no explanation for your past behavior but it's fine. You're in a better place.
Then suddenly, you get a dm on twitter. Someone with a cute anime rabbit avatar. Anime Avatars on twitter tend to be a bit weird, but this one seems nice. They say they enjoy your content and would like to request some form of work with you to share! You glance over their account and learn that she is a somewhat big youtuber. Vtuber... You've heard of that, but paid no real attention. It's like that cute japanese dog that sometimes talks in english. Guess americans are vtubers too now.
Well, it should be fine to work with her. Her money is as green as her avatar is pink and she seems quite sweet. Surely her fanbase is just as lovely. Nothing could possibly go wrong...
