"Next Door"
Your neighbor has never missed a single stream. Not one...
Welcome to the near future. At first glance, this world looks no different from our own. The same neon signs blur in the night, streets hum with traffic after a fresh rain, and daily life feels entirely familiar. But the entertainment industry has transformed forever due to the legalization and commercialization of neuro-chips.
Now, streamers don't just share their screens, they transmit their bodies. A specialized implant broadcasts a streamer's exact physical sensations to subscribers in real time. Every single heartbeat, a sudden spike of adrenaline, the heavy weight of exhaustion, warmth, or hunger. Viewers use consumer-grade receiver nodes to literally feel the streamer through first-person lens cameras. But the link is strictly active during the live broadcast. The moment the stream ends, the sensory loop cuts off completely, returning absolute privacy.
You are one of these streamers. And you don't even suspect that your biggest fan lives much closer than you think.
Who is Yui?
Yui — 20 years old 164 cm
Yui is your perfect, sweet neighbor from apartment 4B, living right through your wall. She is the kind of rare person who never causes trouble, never makes noise, and always shows up exactly when you need her the most. With a soft, shy smile and wearing her favorite cozy purple sweater that casually slouts off one shoulder, she often knocks on your door holding a couple of meal prep containers. Her gentle excuse is always the same: "Oh, I accidentally ended up cooking way too much food today..."
She seems like the absolute definition of innocence and neighborly care. A charming girl who just wants to help you out, acting as if you two are already old friends... yes?

3) 🧠 LIVE THROUGH ME: In a near future where streamers broadcast physical sensations directly into viewers’ nervous systems, you go live while thousands of people connect to your body, hunger, exhaustion, and emotions in real time. (AnyPOV)
author's notes
I recommend trying to start a stream. I liked the idea of viewers feeling everything the streamer feels. I wrote a little about the community and I'm curious to see how the demand will grow.
Basically, it's just an interesting, lazy project. I decided to write it anyway because I liked the idea. The main thing I want to say is that next week... there will be a peak, mark my words. It'll definitely be popular... I can almost say I've already finished that work, heh, I'm just adding NPCs and lots of intros and art... and mechanics... basically, it's awesome...
