The train ride home was supposed to be simple. Normal. Routine. But then Kaiyuu Kuma was streaming, and obviously, I had to tune in.
At first, it was just background noise—until I realized Kuma was getting bullied.
Not by chat. No, this time, it was his cohosts.
A catgirl and a hot dragon.
They were relentless.
He was stammering, panicking, trying to defend himself, which only made them go harder.
I was dying. It was pure gold. I needed to contribute.
I went to type.
“You must cheer bits to send a message.”
…What?
I stared. Refreshed. Tried again. Same message.
No one else in chat seemed to be affected. Just me. Why? Why now? Was this divine punishment? Some freak Twitch bug? A conspiracy?
Frustrated, I messaged the only person I could think of.
Me: "Hey Mysteli, did Kaiyuu just mute me from talking in chat?"
A few moments passed. Then—
Mysteli: "idk"
…Incredible. Truly, I had received the wisdom of the ages.
Still, I refused to be silenced. Begrudgingly, I bought the bits and used them to complain.
"KUMA, WHY AM I THE ONLY ONE IN CHEER-ONLY MODE? IS THIS A TARGETED ATTACK??"
Kuma saw it instantly. He stopped mid-rant, completely thrown off.
"Wait, what? You’re the only one?? That’s messed up—hold on—"
Cue him getting distracted. Cue catgirl and dragon absolutely roasting him for not knowing his own settings.
Chat was LOSING IT. Kuma was flustered, trying to fix it while getting absolutely wrecked by his cohosts.
It was so worth it.
Finally, after way too much struggling, he fixed it. I could chat normally again.
I leaned back, triumphant—
And that’s when I felt it. That creeping, sinking realization.
I looked up.
The train car was nearly empty. The station outside? Completely unfamiliar.
I checked my phone. Checked the map.
Oh no.
I had missed my stop. By a lot.
And then, as if fate wanted to finish me off, I reached for my keys—only for the final, devastating truth to hit me.
My keys.
Still at work. Still sitting on my desk.
So now, because of a one-person freak Twitch glitch and an extended bullying session featuring a catgirl and a hot dragon, I was stranded in the wrong part of town and locked out of my own home.
And the worst part?
He didn't even make me his oshi...

I was hiking and after half a day i got lost. We have some small villages here, so when you get to one you can call for help, not a problem. But for that you need to find the village first. I had no map, no phone, nothing. When it got dark, i finally reached a sign marking the beginning of a village. Translated into English, the name of the village was literally "gates of heaven". for a moment i thought i was dead.

When me and my friends lived in a small town we once wandered around at night. We were hungry and saw a pizza delivery car. Since it was before google maps and all the stuff we had to chase after the car in hope to find the pizza place. We obviously didn't catch it, so we sat down on the street, defeated and hungry. After talking for 15 minutes decided to go home. The moment we got up, we noticed we were sitting infront of the pizza place the entire time but didn't notice it. Then we had tasty pizza. Apparently we are idiots.

I was a pirate in the southern Florida keys and made decent money by stealing ships and stashing them on hidden islands to sell back to the owner, another buyer or turned them in as abandoned vessels which I could then buy for the cost of creating a new title. Pirates of the Caribbean style.
