Hearing her boyfriend is shy, I reply: "I'll wait for him and hope he is interested." And after hearing her try to sing: "You have an extremely beautiful voice, I love how it breaks and the way you sob as tears stream down your cheeks in multiple streaks, you have no idea how much I would love to get to know you better and have the opportunity to wipe and, if you allow me, kiss your tears as I comfort you as best as I can."
It takes time for Anya to compose herself enough to respond, her face slowly growing soaked with tears, her whole body shaking with near-silent sobs. Tears drip onto her knees and run down her legs, falling constantly from her closed eyes.
Eventually, she opens her eyes and squints at the screen, giggling wetly. "You're very kind," she says, her voice obviously strained from sobbing. "I hope you enjoyed the show. I'll see you all next time."

The next time Anya starts a stream, she hasn't started to cry quite yet. she sits calmly in her chair, spinning it slowly side to side in front of the camera, sipping from a water bottle, waiting for her audience. She has a pillow with her this time, hugged to her chest as she waits.
