《I Really Am An Internet Celebrity!》Chapter 5: ‘Threat'
Advertisement
When Vermillion saw the ‘99+’ on his notification box, he immediately clicked on the notifications button. To his surprise as he scrolled up and down, it was a mixture of replies and likes on his tweet and other people’s tweets with him tagged.
@PopoTheFrog: @VeMilllion You tell them snowflakes! #ThePresidentIsMyPresident!
@KellyKennedy: @VeMilllion HOW DARE YOU OFFEND ME!?!?! BOY BANDS ARE LIFE!!!
The rest of his notifications were more of the same, people agreeing and disagreeing on what Vermillion tweeted. “Woah! I could sure get famous by just doing this all day but that ain’t no fun if the trends are horrible..” Vermillion thought as he scrolled down his notifications. An idea popped up in his head, “What if I use this as like an advertisement for myself? So that people can follow me!” he thought. “I’M A GENIUS!” he spoke proudly about himself. He liked the idea but immediately stumbled upon a problem, “But how do I do that? I mean, Lewd ’s probably busy or asleep and I can’t just ask the people I’m gonna advertise to how to advertise. How, how!?” he asked himself. “I think getting straight to the point is better? Or is that worse?” he said. After a minute of thinking of which solution, he thought that being simpler and efficient is better and he should just be straightforward about it “Well I have nothing to lose anyways, as if I’ll lose one of my 21 followers!” he chuckled after telling a joke about his followers.
He immediately responded to the PopoTheFrog account, stating:
@VeMilllion: follow me for more quality tweets!
To save himself some trouble, he copied the text to the clipboard and went to other people’s replies and said the same thing. He got a bunch of replies after responding to them all.

@PopoTheFrog: @VeMilllion Oh so you’re one of those accounts? How can you be WOKE and a JOKE at the same time!?
@KellyKennedy: @VeMilllion How could you offend me AND THEN ridicule me?! You are trash!
@SomeoneDave: @VeMilllion Seriously? I thought you we’re better than this but you’re just a scum follower whore!
Vermillion seeing the feedback to his shameless advertisement got taken back a little and backfired made him a little shocked! Even if 1 or 2 people still followed him but he didn’t think that even the people who cheered him have the audacity to curse at him! Vermillion got angry but he didn’t argue with them as he knows that if he did it will only make his reputation worse and that is certainly the last thing he wants to do! “Tch! Whatever I still got some followers that’s better than nothing, your rejection still gives me attention! Braindead idiots.” he commented
He checked the other replies and still commented the same copy-pasted reply and got a couple more followers and still some hate, he thought “Who cares!? It’s not like I’m going to lose any followers..well maybe I will lose some followers but I can get some other followers that would equal out the losses eventually!”.
Vermillion got hungry and then went downstairs to eat breakfast and then he went to the toilet and came back after brushing his teeth which may seem odd but he actually forgot to brush his teeth when he woke up and why I’m I saying this? I don’t know.
He came back to his room which was a little messy so he cleaned it up which he got tired quickly after that and decided to take a quick nap but before he could do that he heard his doorbell ring. It was the mailman with a package. “Package for Mr. Vermillion, sign here, here and here.” the mailman said. Vermillion got pretty excited and after signing the papers, he quickly went inside but after calming down a bit he suddenly realized something. “Wait, how the fuck am I going to play this, I don’t have a Playmation!?” he exclaimed “AHH! I’m such an idiot!” after realizing his mistake he took out his phone to order a Playmation but he thought of something and opened his Camera and took a picture of the game and then went on twitter and tweeted this with a picture:

@VeMilllion: Just got the ‘Shoot em’ up!’ game But I remembered I don’t have a PlayMation..shit.
After waiting a bit for the tweet to send he went to the PlayMation website and ordered the cheapest one online because even if he has money to live all his live in comfort he won’t spend it all like nothing maybe a serious situation will occur and he will need a lot of money to handle it? That won’t be good and if he doesn’t have enough money than he is definitely screwed.
After ordering the Playmation he got an Email saying it will arrive in a few business days which he ignored and then stared at the game, he wanted to open it but then again what’s the point? “I will have to wait for the PlayMation first or i will just ruin the first feeling of a fresh game!” he restrained himself and put the game in a drawer and then putting a note to not forget where it is so when the console arrived he won’t be bothered to look for it.
He went upstairs again and checked his Computer and saw that he’s tweet was getting some likes but it wasn’t a lot ‘I Shouldn’t get used to my tweets getting likes and attention because it will stop after a while’ he thought to himself “well nobody said i shouldn’t enjoy it, this won’t happen for a while so i should enjoy it to the fullest!” he said excitedly
He then checked his following and saw he already got quite a bit of followers but he shoulnd’t get over excited over such a small amount, he went to check the Trending tab but saw it’s more or less the same Trends but one or two of them we’re different, he groaned after seeing that but he didn’t go on a rant because even if he went on a rant it will get a little nasty and he already had enough threats from people and he is quite weak hearted when it comes to getting threats.
He checked his timeline to see anything interesting but only found the same Selfies, Overused memes, and some “life facts” which Vermillion can already tell half of them are untrue. “Seriously where did they get these so called facts from?” he didn’t give it that much attention and he kept scrolling up and down liking some tweets here and there.
After checking his timeline nothing caught his attention so he quickly signed off and he already was tired and it was already nighttime so he quickly turned off his computer and went to the Toilet and went to prepare his bed to sleep.

8 181For Your Eyes Only
He was the boy that no one noticed.
