I showered and got dressed, I also made breakfast and coffee. I pretty much just did my morning routine until I heard Karl loudly groan and knew he was on his way into the kitchen.

When he came in, I let him drink his energy drink and do whatever before bringing up the setup thing. He happily agreed and walked with me to my room, we settled that I'd borrow his mic for today until I got one of my own, and since I didn't need a facecam I was pretty much set. He showed me how to do everything on Twitch and how to make sure audio and things were good.

Eventually he left me to plan out my stream. I figured maybe I'd invite Wilbur since he was, aside from Karl, my only streamer friend, obviously Karl would be on a lot of my streams but he's tired so Wilbur would be today. I figured we could play Minecraft on our world and maybe some geoguessr. Something about Wilbur just made me want to spend time with him, so inviting him to stream with me just made sense.

I also would tweet out about my stream, I'd gained quite the following after appearing on Wilbur's streams. I knew that most of my followers and viewers would only be there because of Karl and Wil, but I also knew that as long as they were entertained it doesn't matter why I got big, they wouldn't stay if they hated me.

I was aware I'd probably be called a clout chaser but I was okay with it, since hanging out with them made me happy.

First things first, I wrote out my message to Wilbur, trying to convince him.

Hey Wil! I was planning on streaming for the first time today, and I was wondering if you'd want to join? Maybe show me the ropes, I was thinking we could play on our Minecraft world?

His response was almost instantaneous.

I'd love to! Tell me when and I'll be there.

I smiled at how quickly and enthusiastically he responded, my heart felt like it skipped a beat, but I brushed it off as nerves. God, I was so excited.

It was still early afternoon, so I wouldn't stream for a few hours but I was still excited about it.

I did things to get my energy out and then about thirty minutes before I intended to stream Wil and I hopped into a vc and checked audio and things, that took a while so I quickly tweeted about it and then went live, I saw Wilbur reply to my tweet and then people started to show up.

"Hi chat! Welcome! This is my first stream, so today Wilbur is with me, he's gonna sorta teach my how to do this thing. I'm so excited to stream for you guys! We should just be working more on our world." I finished off, undeafening and loading into the world. Taking the little starting soon words off the screen.

The screen switched to Minecraft and saw Wilbur and I's characters crouching by the portal. We were going to try and go at least find the fortress.

We both made sure we had weapons and a few pots before going in. Sadly luck wasn't in our favor and we didn't load near a fortress, meaning we'd have to travel the nether.

We took of to our right and just continued walking for probably 100 blocks when the dark red of a fortress support came into view.

"Wil! Wil! Wil! I see it, we found it!" I shouted, turning my character towards it and taking off.

"Yay! We did it! This is great!" He said.

We bridged into the area and the words [a terrible fortress] appeared on both our screens.

We looted the fortress until we found the first blaze spawner. We both got 3 blaze rods, but Wilbur died so I had to wait for him to get back and put all his things in a chest.

When he returned we fought and got enough blaze rods, finally.

We made the treacherous journey across our bridges back to our portal and went home. We made sure to secure our blaze rods in a chest with our valuables.

I spent some time decorating and making our house pretty whim Wilbur went off doing god knows what, although I could still hear him mumbling to himself and occasionally saying something like "do you think that anteaters are good animals?" I usually answered his outlandish questions and we laughed hysterically. He sure did have a lot to say about the anteater thing.

Eventually he came back to our house and he threw down some ender pearls, along with a few flowers to help with my decorating.

When I finished decorating, we switched to playing geoguessr, which as it turns out, I suck at. Wilbur was really good though, so it made up for me.

"Don't worry young padawan, I'll train you in the art of geoguessr." He reassured me as I failed yet again.

We continued on, him guessing correctly and me failing miserably for most levels. He did give me tips though.

After about 3 hours of streaming I said goodbye to chat and ended my stream, unmuting to talk to Wil.

"You know, you did a great job, especially for your first time, you're a natural, at streaming that is, maybe not at geoguessr, that was pretty terrible." He said and we both chuckled.

"Yeah, I did suck pretty bad. I am glad you thought my stream was good though." I said with a soft smile on my face.

Eventually I left call, excited that first stream had went well.
