Deep Dive

Mentioned Characters: Yuyuko, Youmu
Story
Yuyuko Saigyouji, the Cyber Ghost, was now a deep diver. She infiltrated the vast network, hunting for top-secret files. And of course, she never forgot to hit the start streaming button before the dive.

As always, Yuyuko initiated her dive one day, seeking the secrets hidden deep within the network. But in the very next moment, she looked as if she were drifting to sleep, or slipping into a trance. It wasn't like her at all. There was an emptiness in her gaze.

Once the dive ended, Yuyuko returned to her usual self and played the data she'd brought back. This was streamed in real-time to her audience. As the hidden truth surfaced, the chat lit up with excitement, and likes piled up by the second. Yuyuko watched with a satisfied smile. "Can't wait to tell Youmu about this later," she thought with a grin.

After wrapping up her stream in cyberspace, just as Yuyuko was just about to log out, a big yawn caught her mid-motion. Deep diving pushes the mind to its limits. She was mentally drained and physically exhausted. Too tired to even think about changing into her pajamas, she gave in to the universal instinct shared by both humans and ghosts alike: when exhaustion hits, you simply collapse into bed. And that's exactly what she did. Instead of logging out, Yuyuko let herself drift, murmuring a sleepy "Goodnight" to no one in particular as she closed her eyes. "Cyberspace is surprisingly cozy. Like floating through a warm breeze." With that final thought, she quietly sank into the embrace of sleep.

"Lady Yuyuko!" The familiar voice of her gardener jolted Yuyuko from her sleep. "You forgot to end the stream!" She had indeed completely forgotten to hit the end stream button. Her blissful sleeping face was being broadcast live to the world. The chat had gone absolutely wild. But Yuyuko, unfazed, simply murmured "Oh my" and casually reached for the end stream button. But before she could, Youmu appeared in cyberspace. "You really need to be more careful." "...Wait, why is the camera pointed at me?" Yuyuko had decided to let the stream run a little longer. It wasn't every day a guest this cute dropped in. A little surprise collab sounded fun. Youmu was visibly flustered, but that only made it better.
