a/n: I would like to thank the beautiful @oosuili and @jasthesilliest for requesting streamer aus!! these have been rotating in my brain for days and I'm really excited to finally write down all my little thoughts.
I want to do a proper one shot at some point, but I had too many thoughts and headcanons I wanted to lay out first, so I thought it'd be cute to give you all my ideas that I can then link back to when i get around to writing it!!
these are all meant to be just silly and fun so I hope you all enjoy!

𝙰𝚋𝚋𝚢
✰ Abby is a variety streamer, but in the way that she does different kinds of content. Her streaming career started off exclusively with gaming, but she eventually shifts to doing a mix of gaming and fitness related content.
✰ She likes to play online games with friends (mainly Manny, but also with a few friends she makes during her career), but when she does solo content, she’s a huge fan of games with longer campaigns that are very story-driven. She especially likes ‘butterfly effect’ games, enjoying the replayability and the fact that her decisions hold weight.
✰ Her layout is simple, but it suits her. All of her twitch money gets put right back into the stream, slowly upgrading her PC and streaming set up from subs and donations.
✰ She has a couple of channel point redemptions, though they’re mostly fitness related; things such as stopping what she’s doing to do 10 push ups or sit ups.
✰ Her adoptive siblings, Yara and Lev, have a burner account that they use to send the dumbest donos ever. They make the TTS say stupid things and try to bait her into saying stuff all the time. Abby figured out super quickly who it was (mainly because Lev cannot keep a secret to save his life) but hasn’t said anything, and keeps reacting to the donations every time they come in.
𝙴𝚕𝚕𝚒𝚎
✰ Ellie is a variety streamer in the way that she’ll play literally anything. She shifts from things chat sends/recommends to whatever she’s been personally fixated on playing lately.
✰ Lately chat has been making her play a bunch of games on Roblox (she gets way too invested and forgets that the people playing against her are most likely children), and some indie horrors like Fears to Fathom. Personally, she’s been really enjoying rhythm/music related games! Right now she’s having fun with Guitar Hero, and has been dipping her toes into Osu.
✰ Sometimes she’ll do streams relating to her real music, but she likes to keep a lot of that private, so she doesn’t do them often. Mostly reserves them for subgoals or events.
✰ She streams mostly in the dark, relying on the computer screen to light up her face cam. She’s not that fussed about how she appears on camera.
✰ Her layout is also fairly simple, the only things that are custom being the graphic around her face cam and chat. She did however make all of her own emotes and custom alerts and is very proud of them.
✰ She has too many channel point and sound alert redemptions. Like seriously too many. Most of them are things to scare her, like the sound of someone knocking on the door, but also stupid things like stock fart noises that chat tries to time for the perfect moment in her games or while she speaks.
✰ Joel comes into chat sometimes to talk to her, sometimes to tell her things when she’s ignoring her texts. It’s funny, and though she acts annoyed, she really does love it—and Joel knows this too.
𝙳𝚒𝚗𝚊
✰ She only streams part-time, doing it for a couple of hours after work a few days a week. She’s not looking to make it full time or thinks she would pursue it if the opportunity came up, and is perfectly content to just share her favourite games with people when she feels like it.
✰ The main game she streams (and that she’s known for) is Stardew Valley, but do not let this fool you. She is NOT a cozy streamer. Dina runs that shit like the Navy. She has spread sheets, she has her farm layouts pre-planned, she is optimising every single second of every single day. She just started dipping her toes into mods, so she switches between upkeep on her main un-modded farm, and trying to navigate the close to seventy mods she has on her other one.
✰ Dina is a PNGtuber, using a model that Ellie drew for her that she loves and cherishes. She’s not a huge fan of having a camera on her 24/7, and will occasionally do streams with it on if she feels like it, but she enjoys being able to stream without feeling the needs to clean herself up to be publicly perceived.
✰ Her overlay is also designed by Ellie, and has different ones that she changes depending on the season. She likes having her latest follower/subscriber/donator on screen so they each have specifically designed boxes to display them in, as well as frames for her game and her chat.
✰ She’s (obviously) dating Ellie, and will pop into the stream every now and again. She’s roped in to fill in spots for multiplayer games sometimes, and while she’s not a huge fan of those games, she doesn’t mind because it’s Ellie. Sometimes when they both stream at the same time, you can hear Ellie yelling through the walls.
✰ Streamer!Abby who started streaming with just OBS recording her screen, and her headset that she’s had for many years. She’d always show off when you would watch her play video games, and both you and Manny (who she was usually playing with) encouraged her to get into streaming because of how entertaining she was.
✰ Streamer!Abby who refused to upgrade her set up until after she hit affiliate, using her first payout from subs and donations to buy an okay webcam and a new mic. You spent the hour leading up to her first face cam stream reassuring her that everything was going to be fine, and that they’d all love her.
╰┈➤ Her arms are wrapped around your middle, cheek pressed against your stomach as she sits in her chair in front of her computer.
“You’re going to be fine, Abs.” You lean down, pressing a kiss to the top of her head. “They already love you.”
She huffs, turning her face to look up at you, a small, frowning pout on her lips. “I know.”
Your hands slide across her shoulders, thumbs digging into the tense muscles. “You can turn the camera off at any point, okay? Or you can even stop the stream early if it gets too much.” Cupping her cheek, you hold her face steady as you look into her eyes. “Whatever you need. It’s your stream.”
Her eyes flutter closed, tilting her head to nuzzle into the palm of your hand. You press another kiss to her forehead, peppering them across the skin, down to her cheeks.
“Besides-- you’re beautiful. If anything, I should be convincing you not to use the face cam. I don’t want to have to compete with everyone else for your affection,” you tease.
Abby huffs, opening a single eye to look at you. “You can’t compete in a competition you’ve already won.”
You hum, a smile spreading across your lips. You tilt her head up more, capturing her lips in a lingering kiss. “Smooth talker,” you murmur against her lips, kissing her once more. “I love you. You’ll be perfect.”
Abby sighs, nodding into your palm. “Okay. I love you too.”
She was perfect, and though she still feels that anxiety before her stream goes live, webcam on and blinking, a quick kiss and whispers of encouragement against her lips always sap those worries away.
✰ Streamer!Abby who did no sort of customisation for her stream, right down to using the twitch default alerts (which are lowkey kind of ugly…). When you had asked why she just shrugged, turned back to her computer and said, “I don’t really like the overlay packs I’ve seen, and I’m not a graphic designer so…”
So you hired one—a graphic designer. You got everything she could need done and gifted it to her after she hit one of her major subgoals. It’s simple, nothing too flashy or ornate, but enough to keep consistent branding across her stream. She now had custom alerts, stingers between scenes, and even emotes that were little inside jokes she’d built up with chat.
She was beyond appreciative, and though Abby Anderson never cries (which is a lie she tells herself), she let herself get just a bit teary in that moment as she kissed you.
✰ Streamer!Abby who was encouraged to start posting on social media as a way for her chat to keep up with her outside of stream. She already had a side account, one she used to post semi-regular fitness content, so she figured she’d just post stream-related content there too. No point in trying to run three accounts.
This is how those two sides of her life began to entangle themselves—people from her stream finding and enjoying her fitness content, and the people from her fitness content finding and enjoying her streams.
After some interest, she put a workout stream as a subgoal and reached it surprisingly quickly. It was just in the study where she streamed from, nothing super fancy or anything, but she found that she really enjoyed it and started to incorporate it more into her schedule!
✰ Streamer!Abby who you tease for having a thirsty chat, especially during her workout streams. She gets flustered by it, waving you off and grumbling about how it’s not her fault.
Sometimes when you’re feeling particularly ruthless, you’ll secretly tune in to her streams, joining chat as they flirt and very obviously ogle. You can always tell the exact moment she spots your user.
╰┈➤ The barbell sits wide across her shoulders, muscles in her bare arms shifting as she keeps it held there, body steadily lowering as she squats. She pauses, holds, then she’s raising back up, muscles contracting as she stabilises herself.
Chat is going nuts.
oceanlilac: holy…
lunar_spellz: 😩😩😩
xfrostyyyx: FOR FREE!?
fireflite: hehe 😇
twilxghts: taking notes….
pixiivoid: why is the stream buffering on this part it keeps replaying
ven0mb4be: #needthat
Abby’s eyes flick to the side when she straightens back up, watching the flying chat for anything that she could legitimately answer or respond to.
“How many sets? One to three.” She squats again, keeping her breathing nice and even. “Depends on the day. Most important thing with these sorts of workouts is to listen to your body.”
She glances over to chat again, a lazy smile on her face. “Don’t want to push yourself too hard, right?”
The chat goes flying once more, a rush of messages coming through too quickly for her to be able to read all of them. She can only catch a few, a brief lag in the chat giving her enough time to process them.
xabbysbicepsx: ughhh when she smiles like that… 🥵🥵🥵
That username. That dumb, stupid username that you ran in to show her one day, cackling as you told her how you couldn’t believe you got it. The username that she secretly keeps an eye out for, but still manages to always catch her off guard.
The reaction is immediate. Her face is already flushed, but the tips of her ears grow an embarrassing shade of pink, and she bites down on the inside of her cheek to keep the flustered smile off of her lips. She clears her throat.
“Anyway—” She huffs, looking away from chat.
Her ears grow even darker when she hears the muffled giggles through the wall, not quite loud enough for the mic to pick up.
✰ Streamer!Abby who accidently gets into twitter beef with Ellie without even knowing it. They were both playing the same online multiplayer, and their chats were going crazy, opening up both streams and flicking between the two.
Everything had been fine until Abby had, in an admitted moment of gaming rage, said, “God, this Ripley does not know what the fuck they’re doing. What the fuck even was that?”
She was snitched on immediately, Ellie’s chat flooding with “The Ada is talking shit!”
Ellie had paused the stream to find out Abby’s handle and went straight to twitter, where the two of them argued for a whole day. Eventually they settled it in the DMs, and now have a playful rivalry going on, one that their chats feed into constantly.
✰ Streamer!Abby who keeps her private life to herself, making sure not to disclose too much online. She removes anything super personal from the background of her camera, and you make an effort to not walk in while she’s streaming.
It’s not out of a need to hide you—she would scream from the rooftops how much she loves you if you asked her to—but she likes having her relationship be something just for her, not having thousands of prying eyes looking in, making assumptions or feeling the need to comment what they think about it-- or you.
✰ Streamer!Abby who messes up at some point eventually, and accidently reveals your relationship without even realising.
╰┈➤ Sometimes when Abby streams, she’ll get so caught up in what she’s doing that she’ll forget to take a break and eat. It’s not a huge deal, but you like to make sure she eats properly, takes a break for the sake of her poor eyes, stands up and stretches.
You linger by the door, slipping your phone into your pocket after shooting her a quick text, letting her know you’d like to come in. You can hear her muffled from the other side of the door, clicking away on her mouse.
“Okay, I need to go grab a drink and some food real quick. I’m gonna run some ads while I’m gone. Be right back!”
Some more clicking, then, “Come in!”
You slowly creak open the door, slipping in and nudging it closed with your foot as you enter. The room looks so different with all the lighting on, the ringlight that brightens up her face, the LEDs around the shelves in the background to light it up a nice green (her favourite colour).
“Hey,” Abby greets, turning around in her chair, already reaching her arms out for you.
You smile, holding up a glass of water and a plate, food fresh and warm. “I made you dinner.” You place them both on her desk, next to her mouse.
She sighs, wrapping an arm around your waist to pull you close, to stand between her legs. “What would I do without you?”
You hum, thinking. “Starve? Not play video games and flex on camera for a living?”
A smirk spreads across her lips, her chin resting on your sternum as she looks up at you. “Yeah, you’re right.”
You laugh, light and sweet as you lean down to press a soft kiss to her lips. “Love you. Have fun.”
“I love you too,” she murmurs, smirk softening to a smile as you slip out of her grip. “Text me when you’re going to bed? I can wrap up stream and come cuddle.”
“Of course, baby.” You wiggle your fingers in a small wave. “Bye.”
“Bye, honey.”
Abby waits for the door to click shut behind you before turning back to her desk, heart squeezing between the cage of her ribs as she looks down at the perfectly presented plate, everything already cut up so that it’d be easier to eat while she plays.
Taking a long sip of the cold water and shovelling a few bites of food into her mouth, she puts her headset back on and shuffles in her seat, wiping her mouth with the back of her hand before switching over to her regular screen. Her game is still paused, and her face cam sits up in the corner.
She unmutes. “And we’re back. Are the ads done for everyone?”
Her eyes flick to chat, expecting a chorus of ‘welcome back!’ and ‘ads are done!’, not the chaos she finds instead.
crypticfawn: HONEY?? LMAO
nightxsh4dx: no fucking way dude
div1ne: queen your mic!!!
cyberrrr: WIFE REVEAL!?!?
faexfae: abby confirmed cuddler ⁉️
aaxlover: chat this is so sad what do you mean shes taken
frozenflare: maybe that’s just a roommate!!!
solarr4ider: @.frozenflare history said they were best friends……..
nexusbyte: LOL this is so embarrassing
All of this crammed between dozens of lesbian flag emotes.
“What—” Abby looks across to her second monitor, checking over all of her settings in OBS. She most definitely switched scenes, and she ran all of her ads, what the fuck—
The little mic button down the bottom is red, which is weird because she just unmuted.
Unless she never muted in the first place.
Shit.
✰ Streamer!Abby who, ever since her little slip up, comes in every now and again when you’re home with a sheepish look on her face, kissing you gently before letting you know that chat is asking for you. Her plan to keep you to herself had backfired tremendously, and now she gets constant messages about you.
Chat will go wild if they hear you in the background, or if they catch your arm slipping into frame to place a drink on her desk, trying hard not to interrupt.
Abby ended up having to make a permanent community challenge for chat to dump their channel points into, the reward when they hit the goal being you coming in to say hello. It was the only way to get everyone to stop asking for you all the time. Chat calls it Wife Time.
“They do know we’re not actually married, right?” you had asked her one night, and she nodded, flustered, mumbling something about them finding it funny because it embarrasses her.
✰ Streamer!Abby who successfully keeps it quiet when you two do get married, taking every precaution she can. She even takes off her wedding ring, slipping it onto a long chain around her neck so that she’s never truly parting with it. She keeps it tucked under her shirt, hidden beneath the fabric.
✰ Streamer!Abby who messes up once again, and accidently spills the beans on the marriage.
╰┈➤ It’s been a couple of months since the wedding, and her chat has just started to get over their suspicions. It’s crazy how observant they are, how much they pick up on. Abby hadn’t thought twice about giving the ‘I’m sick’ excuse for her hiatus, letting the two of you go about your wedding and honeymoon.
She’d had to dodge questions left and right when she came back, members of her chat asking for specifics, what kind of illness made her be away for that long, why does she seem so glowy if she just got over being sick.
She knew not many of them believed her, but she just hoped that if she kept curving their questions that the interest would die off.
And it did, until she screwed up again.
She was fiddling with shit on her desk as she talked to the camera, swirling the metal straw in her cup as she ran through her thoughts on the game they had just finished. She wasn’t paying much attention, missed the way the cup shuffled closer and closer to the edge of the desk until it inevitably fell, and her drink spilled all over the carpet at her feet.
“Shit--!” She jumped out of her chair, foot landing in the puddle and soaking her sock. “Oh fucking—gross,” she groaned, ripping her headset off and tossing it onto the chair.
“One second, guys. I spilled my drink.”
She sprinted from the room, finding a towel in the linen cupboard and bringing it back with her to her streaming room to mop up the floor. She’s surprised to find you already there, sitting in her chair with her headset on.
“—all the time. Clumsy as hell,” you say into the mic, laughing at something chat says.
“I’m not clumsy,” Abby grumbles as she walks in, wet sock still on her foot, bending over to pat at the puddle.
“She really is,” you whisper conspiratorially, grinning into the mic.
Abby huffs, standing up and bundling the towel in her hands, throwing it out into the hallway behind her. “Stop lying to my chat, you’re being a menace.”
“They love me.”
“Uh huh,” she says, unable to hide her smile anymore as she leans down, pressing a kiss to the top of your head.
Something cold brushes against your cheek, smooth and round. Like a pendant on a necklace.
hxauntedluv: chat are you seeing this

“Oh for fuck’s—”
✰ Streamer!Abby who you send edits of herself to all of the time. You think it’s hilarious and love to fluster her with them. That is until she sends you ones made of yourself, and you decide to call a truce and never send them to each other ever again.
You don’t tell her that you have a folder on your phone full of them, saving the ones you find especially hot. Mixed amongst them are edits of the two of you, sweet songs playing in the background as clips of you two interacting play on the screen. Sometimes, when you miss her so much it hurts, you’ll fall asleep as those ones play silently on your phone.
✰ Streamer!Abby whose entire Instagram becomes your dog when you get one, a retired police dog named Bear. He’s full of energy and has a thick, shiny coat, and you both love him to pieces. Abby sets up a camera near the dog bed she keeps for him in her streaming room, broadcasting the ‘Bear Cam’ whenever he begs at the door to be let in. He’ll sleep there for hours, snoring away in the background.
If Abby dares turn off the camera, even when he’s been doing nothing but sleep, she gets yelled at by chat.
