Genie Glory the Game
(A [Very Late] Trade with @bigwishes. I hope you like it!) 43 followers. Rich Donaldson, also known as TF2Twink on Twitch, had 43 followers.Rich had been streaming for over 3 years now and only had 43 followers. 43 measly followers. It made him feel pathetic. It made him feel like he was useless. Yet at the same time, Rich was incredibly grateful for every one of those followers.Â
Rich Donaldson had wanted to become a gaming streamer since he was a kid. It hadnât really been a real thing until he was a teen, and most people thought he was crazy for thinking he could make money that way. Some people doubted it was a real job, some thought it was too competitive, some thought it was just a dumb idea in general. No matter what the reason, everyone in Richâs life agreed that Rich wasnât going to make it as a streamer. Especially his hyper religious, video game hating parents. Still Rich refused to give up. He knew it would be hard, maybe impossible, but he was passionate and felt like he had to follow his dream. That was what everyone in the movies did after all. Rich moved out, cut contact with his parents, went into debt buying the best streaming gear he could⌠and immediately regretted it. Rich didnât mind losing contact with his parents. They had never been the most loving people, so he hadnât really lost much. Except things werenât working out like they did in the movies. Rich wasnât making it, and worse than that he wasnât getting any better at streaming. He was good at the games, so he knew that wasnât the issue. The issue was⌠he was incredibly, painfully, horribly shy. Rich didnât have the confidence that a streamer needed. He could barely get a word out during the stream without starting to awkwardly ramble, and even when he did he came off as awkward and weird. He wasnât just unconfident, he was a downright nervous wreck. Still he didnât give up. He couldnât after everything he had thrown away to get this chance⌠all the sleepless nights working part time jobs to stay above water⌠he was in too deep. So he kept going âHey chat! S-so t-todayâŚâ Rich took a deep breath, trying his best not to ramble âT-today Iâm going to be playing a new game. I-itâs not very well known, but i-it looked cool and Iâve heard a lot of people are playing it⌠S-so let's get into âGenie Glory the Game!â Rich said, trying to be excited. Barely anyone was watching, and it was getting hard to pretend he wasnât incredibly depressed, but he kept smiling. Genie Glory was a pretty simple game with a simple premise that had been baffling gamers for months. It was a pretty simple idea based on a classic scenario. You play a random guy who has discovered a genieâs lamp and now has 3 wishes. You make a wish by typing it into the computer, and the genie grants the wish, but usually in some twisted way that is accompanied by a pixelated animation of the player's fate. The goal is to get through all 3 wishes alive. What made the game so popular was that no one had beat it yet. Whatever AI the game used was incredibly clever and strangely creative, and to make it even more difficult, the game only allowed you to play it once. Popular streamers, actually geniuses, and even philosophers hadnât been able to beat the game, so Rich knew beating it would make him famous.
âOk chat. I-itâs time for our first wish⌠And Iâm taking suggestionsâŚâ Rich said. Rich wanted to beat the game, but⌠he wasnât sure how to beat this game, so heâd take all the help he could get. A few suggestions actually came across the screen âBasedBro69: Wish for your muscles to grow!â
âGenieGay33: No way, that's the way to open ended! The Genie will make him grow until he pops or somethingâ
âMissTaken27: That's such a basic idea. Might as well ask him to wish to be a frat boy or something.â
Rich laughed at this. He knew most of his followers' usernames by heart, but BasedBro69 was new. Still the conversation he had started was kind of funny, and he figured⌠why not? âOk then, why not! Lets make me a frat boy!â He said, snickering as he typed in his computer. He tried to be as specific as possible to avoid the spell being twisted ââI wish I was an attractive, stereotypical frat boy.â
Rich laughed as he watched the pixelated version of himself grow muscular, his clothing changing to a tank top and backwards cap. He watched as the other version of him rushed a frat. Rich was certain something would go wrong, afterall he knew from first hand experience that hazing could get fucking intense, but surprisingly his character survived and got through the first wish without any incident. Rich grinned widely. Most people never even made it through the first wish, but he, a relative nobody, had managed! He stood up straighter as he watched people start to flood into the stream. He checked the chat happily. âGenieMan33: He actually made it with that wish? Iâll never understand this game, but good for you!â âMisterRichD27: Kind of an ironic wish considering you are a frat boy. No offense.â âBasedBro69: I fucking knew that would work bro! You can do this!â
Rich blushed slightly at MisterRichD27âs comment, and his flirty name. While he didnât tend to think of himself that way, he was technically a frat boy. He had joined one after heading to college in the hopes of finding some friends. His frat brothers could be⌠kind of obnoxious, and very stereotypical, but they had helped him come out of his shell somewhat and even get in shape. He was still fairly shy, but he never would have gotten this far in college or with his streaming if it wasnât for them. He chuckled at the chat, slightly embarrassed âIâll admit, that was a weird wish, but hey, it worked so who cares!â Rich said cheerily âOk, so what's the next wish going to be? Iâm trusting you on this chat!â Rich said with what he hoped was a charming wink. âGenieMan33: Maybe something basic like money? That doesnât usually work but you seem to be on a hot streak.â
âBasedBro69: No way bro. He only gets to play once. Wish for something like fucking confidence or something. Something fun!â
âMisterRichD27: IDK, Basedbro69 was right last time. Maybe you should wish for confidence?â Rich shrugged. He could think up even more ways that this could go wrong, but this game had never seemed to work on logic in any of the videos he watched to prepare for this. So with a grin, he typed in his second wish âI wish I had the kind of cocky confidence that ladies love.â he said with a chuckle. He hoped it would be obvious that it was a joke, since his Twitch username, FortnightOtter44, made it obvious he was gay. He watched as the little version of him grew a big head, quite literally. Rich was worried this was leading to some type of game over, but his head deflated, his muscles grew, and a bunch of pixelated girls in bikinis ran up to the pixelated him. Rich grinned wide and tried not to cuss in celebration, not wanting to get demonetized (again). He had fucking done it! He fucking got past wish 2! He smirked as he watched the chat explode as more people tuned in âGenieStud33: Fuck yeah! RDH fucking did it! Knew you had it in you bro!â
âMissRichD27: RDH is the best gamer ever! And the hottest! DM me!â
BasedBro69: HELL YEAH! You can do this bro!â Rich, known as RDH to his fans, or RichDaHunk on Twitch, smirked, as he saw the comments roll in. He fucking knew he could get this game. He may not have been the most popular streamer on twitch, but he was a fucking good gamer and a total stud. He flexed his biceps, getting the chat riled up again in a frenzy of lust and admiration. Rich didnât bother to look at the chat this time. He gave a smarmy, cocky smirk at the camera âI know what to put in next bros. Iâm gonna wish for something fucking inevitable.â he said cockily.
He quickly typed in âI wish I was the most popular gaming streamer on Twitchâ, and watched with a practiced cool confidence as the pixelated version of him gained millions of followers. The chat exploded with awe and wonder as what Rich had always known was going to happen, happened. He had won the game. He flexed his muscles for the stream, celebrating with his 43 million followers. He didnât understand why they were all shocked. He was the coolest, hottest, douchiest gamer on twitch. Of course he fucking won!
