Four hours after Dora took her final break—dawn at four a.m.
And eight hours into starting Game Pandemic Village.
Finally, a cheer erupted from the soundproof booth.
"We did it—!!!"
— Kyaaaaaaa
— Finallyyyy
— My teeth are all chipped!!! Take responsibilityyyy
— Kraaak finally
— Dora wins!
— Dragon Sis wins!!!!!
— She cleared it in the end lololol
Dora had succeeded in clearing the game after trying the final boss thirteen times.
She was supposed to do story dubbing like usual now.
But whether clearing it was that moving, she was crying so hard she couldn't speak properly.
"Hueeeng, hueeeeeeng, hieeek."
:: :: Anonymous Sponsor has donated 100,000 clouds! :: ::
:: :: Clear celebration :: ::
Her reaction to the donation wasn't exactly human sounds, either.
"Huehihi…. Yeueu hueaaang, hiaaaaaa…. "
— Say something lolololol
— Someone'd think she won Olympic gold lol
— She really does everything lololol
— Is this a reaction or crying lololol
— This is why I can't quit Dragon Sis's collabs lolol
It was cute, sure. But if she kept this up, someone might complain that the 100,000-cloud donation got a half-assed reaction.
So I translated her babble-like words for the viewers.
Normally I'd wait it out, but having watched her struggle up close from right beside her, I didn't want any misunderstandings lingering.
Leaving it alone would just mean cleaning up later, delaying my quitting time again.
"Hueeeng, 'Anonymous Sponsor donated 100,000 clouds,' she says."
— Lolololol what translation is that lolol
— You understood that? Lol
— Being a parallel manager ain't easy lololol
"Eunghee… haaaang…! Eunghee haaa!"
"'Air paaaants. Air paaaants,' she says."
— First time seeing such a deadpan 100k reaction
— Why is this so funny lololololol
— This is cute too?
— Possible
"Eeuu haaaang!"
"'Do it properly,' she says."
— We're doing it properly lololol
— Why yell at the staff lolol
— Delicious.
The 100,000-cloud donor left a "delicious" rating, so at least that was a relief.
What was odd, though, was how the chat atmosphere shifted completely afterward.
It had been all about consoling the hardworking Dora, but suddenly tons of people were sympathizing with me.
— Tough job wrangling the ones who won't listen
— Just D D
— King D Emperor D God D
:: Anonymous Sponsor has donated 10,000 clouds! ::
:: Thanks for taking care of our Moji, go home early even if you're tired ㅠㅠ ::
Staying up till this hour wasn't a one- or two-day thing, so I wasn't as tired as they worried.
Just a bit of ear ringing from Dora's dragon-roar-like screams nonstop.
Still, seeing the viewers be so gentlemanly after so long felt weirdly nice.
If they'd been like this normally, I wouldn't have had to ban-dance my ass off.
But in this warm, harmonious vibe, one person alone had teary eyes: Dora, still not out of her emotional flood.
"Sniff… seriously. You guys… why only care about the staff… I! I worked the hardest…!"
— Uh oh
— Why turn dark all sudden ㄷㄷ
— Black Flame Dragon appears!!!
— Bisaang
But when the streamer gets emotional, viewers turn into little devils.
No better time for explosive fun, after all.
Sure enough, soon everyone was busy teasing Dora.
…She's still hyped up, so too much poking might be bad.
:: Anonymous Sponsor has donated 10,000 clouds! ::
:: Honestly, if Sis had done well, wouldn't Staff D have gone home earlier? ::
— Lolololololol
— Youuuuuu
— Humidity's rising, ease up lololol
— Stop, she's already soaked!!
"Yeah. I sucked…. It took forever 'cause I couldn't, yeah. But guys, honestly, they run around too much. Even if Staff D did it, probably not much difference?"
— Huh?
— That scratches?
— No matter how bad, it wouldn't take 15 min lololol
— Says the one who took 15 min…
— Uh oh?
— Sluuurp this is a bit
— Hey now
— Provoking her?
— 55 provoke whyyy
— Hitting back on this?
:: Anonymous Sponsor has donated 1,000 clouds! ::
:: Honestly, shouldn't we praise Staff D who never backseat-gamed once the whole time? If it were me I'd snatch the keyboard and mouse right in her face like "nah that's not how" fr ::
— Fr lololol
— Can't deny
— This is the signal flare but true
— Upvoting with tears ㅠㅠ
Yup, things were overheating.
Dora's lips were quivering—she was on the verge of bawling again.
Bad vibe, so I was debating mediating when—
:: Anonymous Sponsor has donated 1,000 clouds! ::
:: Yup~ Staff D would've done it in a 3-min no-hit~ ::
Luckily, one cheeky donation cracked Dora up with a giggle.
But dear sponsor, did you know anonymous donations aren't actually anonymous?
Streamers can see the nick anyway, so throwing 1,000-cloud punches from the shadows can backfire like this.
I learned that the hard way early on when the boss dissected me for it.
Hm, though that nick wasn't this bad.
[Sponsor History]
- dydWbWb: 1,000 clouds "Yup~ Staff D would've done it in a 3-min no-hit~"
— Kraaak
— Protect hatchling!!
— Fuuuuck that nick lololololololololololol
— Wha…?
— What's with the choochoo…?
— Furryperry…
— Farewell
— Nick immediately normalized OUT
— It was anonymous!! Anonymous!!!
Dora screenshotted it, hung the viewers out to dry, and asked me.
She burst out laughing in disbelief, but her anger wasn't fully gone yet.
"Staff D, could you really beat it in 3 minutes?"
I just blinked, signaling I wanted to go home, but she hit back with cute provocation.
"Scared maybe? Worried you'll be slower than me, so pretending you didn't hear?"
— So fucking annoying fr
— Lolol
— As if~
— Hard to hold back on this
— Might as well show it then deep-fry her and dip clean?
— Head says go home but heart wants to watch
— Dragon Sis this you?
— Boo trash
Thanks to that, I became the trash harassing a tired employee, but Dora didn't seem to care.
…You were just crying.
What even is a streamer?
Of course, after slaving 8 hours to clear and getting that donation, plus suddenly me getting praised for "hard work" out of nowhere—who wouldn't be pissed?
Spotlight stolen after all that effort, viewers caring more about me than her.
No wonder she's jealous.
…But if I nail a 3-min clear, everyone'll be staring at me then?
Can't half-ass it, either. Now that I'm known as the signal flare, slacking even a bit means "he went easy" for sure.
And going easy would just trash Dora's image more.
Comparing provoked Dora to chill me? She'd look immature and pathetic.
Viewers who saw the whole thing would get it, fine.
But outsiders spreading twisted rumors? Problem.
"Staff D. Be honest. Scared? Freaked out? That you'll suck compared to me?"
Anyway, Dora kept pressing, and this was my first rodeo—no manual.
But dodging like a coward felt lame.
Given how things were going, I'd keep tangling with the members whether I wanted or not. Dodging now didn't guarantee no repeats.
Meaning, to long-run as head manager, I needed quick wits to handle this without twisting her stream to my taste….
"Fine. But let's bet on it."
"Bet? Awesome! What's the wager?"
"If I clear in 3 minutes, you give the viewers a rare Big Sis voice reaction."
Big Sis voice (real voice) was a 500k-cloud reaction—super rare.
Chat blew up instantly.
— Signal flare flipping the mood~
— StaffD!StaffD!StaffD!StaffD!StaffD!StaffD!StaffD!
— Euugh my goat ㅠㅠㅠ
— OneD the Great, how to repay!!!
Even hyped-up Dora calmed down hearing me.
After provoking first and mulling a bit, she said,
"Fine, but if you fail in 3 minutes, promise to game with me sometime this month."
"Deal."
— Kyaaaaaaa
— Queen Do Ra
— Okgood~
— This works too? Lol
— Leeeet's goooo
Bet made.
It almost looked like me cleaning up after Dora's antics and suffering, but with rewards all viewer-friendly, the vibe flipped instantly.
Now if I win, give Dora and viewers cozy time, then peace out. Done.
I sat in the chair she vacated, adjusted the height, loaded the save, and bang, bang.
Fired a few shots into the air, twirled the mouse around.
Checking sensitivity and max turn angle.
'Angle like this should be plenty….'
Angles checked, next: battlefield scan.
Boss room was a tangled double-layer cave with player-only shortcuts everywhere.
Boss crawls straight at you nonstop, super fast—gotta keep shortcut-hopping or it catches you quick.
Hit-and-run mandatory.
But with my four health bars, three hits were fine.
Final boss no heals, but meant I could tank three and go berserk.
"Ready."
Dora grinned and asked,
"Seriously tough tho? Weak point dangles non-stop so you can't shoot, speed's insane,"
Boss was a spider bigger than a person, two dangling head-sized eyeballs its only weak spots.
And yeah, fast as hell, constant direction changes—shakes like crazy.
Speedrunners skip it since aiming slows you down.
But ignoring a weak point 'cause it's hard? Not my style.
"Going in."
Entered boss room, unloaded on it approaching from afar.
Boss climbs walls, floors, ceilings on hits—eyes shake wildly too.
No reason I can't hit, though.
Shake looks random, but ain't.
Wall-to-floor, floor-to-ceiling—angles and paths predictable enough.
Clip empty, swap mag.
Boss right up in my face now, but no run—three more shots.
Bang bang bang!
Third shot and it bites—QTE shove for brief i-frames.
Dump remaining three, dive into shortcut.
— ???
— Wait all 12 were headshots?
— Wtf
— Just woke up fully
— ?
— At this pace under 2 min ㄷㄷ
Reload, repeat till one health left.
Easy, right?

[Dee Emperor so goddamn cool fr]
(FinalBoss_1min_51sec.clip)
Asked Pandemic Gal and turns out
Even speedruns say 2:30 is par

But Dee Emperor just dumps all in the head and dips cool ㄷㄷ
Dopamine exploded watching, wide awake now
