Idk, I'm sort of adverse to anything along that line involving Let's Play, because there has been a whole bunch of creepiness associated with Pokémon let's plays in particular (especially his) in the past. It's an instinctive 'going down a weird road here' vibe. The general creepiness was one of the major reasons Pokémon let's plays aren't allowed over there anymore, too. So call it an early warning flag maybe for me.

An intrigued nonny would like to know more, if that's okay.

Well, there have been a couple of secrets (and backwater forums) in the past who have gotten into creepily shipping the Let's Play Pokemon main characters (as in, drawing weird art of them when they're all 11 year old girls.) Some of it came up when the threads were running--in fact, I'm pretty sure it was a discussion in the Fire Red one for a bit and the discovery of it led Red to totally lose his motivation for a bit.

There was also this HUGE creepy wall of text from a forum somewhere that showed up in one of the LP threads about how someone loved the Pokemon LPs and shipped the characters and doted on Red etc., but I don't have an account so I can't find it and I'm not really sure I'd want to stare into that madness again anyway.

(The other Pokémon related creepiness was more 'self insert' and less 'stalking this guy's LPs to ship the characters he wrote' but all of it together was evidently enough to get Pokémon LPs banned.)

Ohhh! Thank you. Thank you so much! That clear up a lot!

If it makes you feel any better, I meant it when I called it an "internet crush." I mean, basically all that it's amounted to is sort of following his Twitter account and occasionally watching his streams (which also amuse/entertain me.) I said it felt creepy, but at the same time, I'm aware enough to realize that admiring someone I don't really know just based on some of their actions is nowhere near the same as "omg tru luv" or whatever people call it nowadays.

re: all the stuff that's been going on and why it hits the creepy buttons for you, that's perfectly understandable. I wasn't aware of any of it; I'd only read the LPs on The LP Archive.

It does, actually! I've seen internet crushes get really weird before. As long as you do have the perspective on it, that goes a long way toward making it not creepy. (I've even recently been dealing with a guy who swears he's totally in love with this girl who he's never even really met, to the point of offering her to move in with him. And originally, he said he just had a crush on her.)

But yes, as long as you keep perspective, it's fine.
