A naked silhouette stands alone in the doorway, illuminated by the studio lights shining into the room from behind him. The tall desktop tower casts a long shadow on the empty desk. Linus approaches, closing the door quietly behind him. The WAN show is about to begin, and he doesn’t have much time. Linus squeezes thermal paste onto himself while caressing the top of the case, feeling its slight curvature as he searches for the power button. He then slowly inserts himself into the 1X slot on the motherboard, sliding between the two large, powerful 2080 tis. They are still warm from benchmarking, and Linus begins to thrust forward, with increasing speed and intensity. “UWU, harder senpai Luke,” he whispers to himself. The fans begin to spin, making a loud whirring noise and glowing softly in the dark room.
Linus hears another sound, rapidly approaching footsteps in the hallway outside. He is overcome by fear … and excitement.
Suddenly the door swings open, and both Anthony and Luke walk inside, turning on the ceiling lights to reveal a startled Linus sweating profusely, and wearing nothing but a pair of LMG branded underwear! Anthony looks shocked, but Luke has seen this before.
“You know you are not supposed to wear the new merch items before they are released!” He says.
“ I couldn’t help myself!” Linus whines.
“What were you doing in here, by yourself in the dark?” Anthony adds, raising an eyebrow.
“I told you, I was trying on the new merch!” Linus replies in a harsh tone.
Anthony shakes his head slowly. “I just need to finish benchmarking this PC before we release the video tomorrow.” He pauses. “And you are already late for the WAN show, Luke has been searching for you everywhere!”
Linus is deeply affected by this sentiment, and stares up at Luke lovingly, as Anthony carries the PC away.
Another close call, Linus thinks to himself, as Luke walks away.
He grabs a blower style 5700 off a nearby shelf and shoves it into his underwear, for after the show.
“Oh yes, so close, senpai Luke,” Linus repeats, speaking softly.
