★ so lonely blooming ★

> Random Irish guy with crippling anxiety

> Watching one of your favorite podcasts, the Super Best Friendcast

> Woolie goes on an extended rant about how much he hated Hunter x Hunter

> "What the fuck that's one of my favorite anime!!"

> Cope, seethe, mald, etc.

> Seethe so hard you start a YouTube channel and make a video about how much you love Hunter x Hunter

> Video actually does pretty well - time to make more I guess?

> Become successful youtube video essayist

> Get invited to conventions

> Meet Woolie at a convention

> He's a great guy and you get along super well

> Become close friends with him

> You play off your origin story to do a miniseries together where you force him to watch Hunter x Hunter

> He only watches one arc of the show and still is not a fan

> Years later - now 2024

> Start a podcast with him where the entire premise is that you recommend each other media (or sometimes other things) and then report back

> Wait until the podcast has a Patreon set up so there's additional pressure to put out an episode on time and fulfil the recommendation

> Recommend him the next two arcs of Hunter x Hunter

> He watches it and actually thinks it's pretty good
