/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

love immy

for me, it's mercy modiste

Our mummeh in VAllure, horny be her name. Her kingdom cum, her will be done, on YouTube as it is on Patreon. Give us this day our daily nut, and forgive us our cringe, as we forgive those who cringe at us. And lead us not into celibacy, but instead deliver us into temptation.

Amen.

I love my Strontistic wife and daughters!

Immy is the best sister in the world, and she's the only girl i need in my life, and i love her a lot!

Throne update:
Immy added a 5 drawer dresser and received 3 cat paw retractable box cutters.
Azura received The Spiderwick Chronicles for PC.

This but with Immy.

i'm new as a vtuber fan but been into lewd asmr for maybe a year or 18 months now. i'm becoming addicted to vallure girls.

however i have a lot of criticisms for their patreon ASMRs, they aren't exactly super deep into their characters as i would have expected and stronny's all seem to be shitposts? i thought her thing was hypno (both ways) like cnc free use kinda deal.

something i'm super curious about is the known past lives of the other girls, surely people have figured most of them out by now?

I want denial from my imouto wife

>>81211115
Oh yes please.

>>81211270
i imagine they're gonna really play up NNN for us lol

>>81211211
If you have criticism, best to go into their chats and tell them directly. They really appreciate the feedback.
Also the PLs aren't known, not even in the "sekrit club" They did really well with opspec

I MISS HER ALREADY FUCKKKKKKK MUMMEH UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

She's gone...

>>81211347
eeeeh one of the girls outright said who they were
another hasn't directly stated it but is obviously 5 other asmr channels.

Azura is cute, Azura is love!
Azura is not a mute, Azura is quite a dove!
Though she is a goat, it fits her like a glove!
This is all to quote, that Azura is my Ladylove!~

>>81211270
>>81211297

>>81211211
I'll answer some of your stuff.

The scripts for the patreon audios were made a while back before the characters were fully formed so they are more ambiguous right now. As things progress they will become more in character. The exception are the two loli characters, patreon doesn't allow outright loli characters so the scenarios have to work around that.

If you want to know about their past lives you're probably not going to get real answers. Some of it is public, but most of it is not. We have an issue with thread shitters so no one wants to provide too much information

>>81211555
Shit, i meant to include >>81211324

why will you steal Kilia's ritualpost

Immy kinda cute
Immy kinda wife
Immy kinda looks
Like the love of my life!

>>81211115
This but with Lividy!

>>81211211
you're missing a whole lot of context idk where to start really

>>81211553
this image is so SEX!

>>81211768
You kinda scared me

>>81211768
>>81211802

>>81211347
>Also the PLs aren't known
Lmao

>>81212653
Denpa you need to apply and get hired first.

>>81212668
Nice.

>>81212653
denpa is cute and nise and i want to choke her

Stop posting about girls that are outside of VAllure unless it directly pertains to our girls.

>>81212865
Sorry Shibi, I just got a bit horny

>>81212865
why do you hate me so much shibi

>>81212905
Its okay, i just don't want the girls to think they arent enough for us. and its off-topic

>>81212814
denpa needs her tits bruised

shibi getting jealous of other girls is really cute desu

>>81211546
>>81212739
retards

Immy is the best sister in the world, and she's the only girl I need in my life, and I love her a lot!

I think immy should call us a good boy again during the stream.

Less than 30 minutes till Immy gets a uti

why doesnt immy tweet as much anymore :(

>>81214066
I agree. I really want Immy to do a Positive affirmations video (could be asmr but doesnt have to be)

>>81214166
Because she's too busy with me

Shibi space soon™ not a drill https://x.com/ShibiNSFW/status/1815138123027726824

She hates her pinpal fans...

I REALLY want my face in shibi's armpit

>>81214366
Fuck! I listened to her last 2 spaces before i went to sleep last night

>>81214068
I will drink my lube in solidarity with her

Why are snowberries and pinpals the most retarded? Is it the cunny?

maeve is pretty fun

>>81214629
Shut the fuck up Shibi, go get ready for the space

>>81214658
>maeve
Who

https://twitter.com/ImmyBisouNSFW/status/1815140979193610247
Love you too Immy!

>>81214629
My crippling autism and love for cunny are two separate things.

Freaky ass
https://x.com/ShibiNSFW/status/1815141117626900917

Immy starting stream early, love you Immy!

>>81214629
What did Pinpals do? I thought they were just all turbo homos

>>81214868
Dont reply to bait, pinpal.

[Shibi news] She's taking off her clothes

>>81214868
They are retard, more annoying than snowberries, and immy is mid and overrated

maybe she’ll rub her pussy uuuuuuuuu

Can you all stop replying to the retard and just jerk off to Shibi like the rest of us?

>>81215026
you think she would do that?

>>81215058
you can't stop someone replying to themselves

>>81215058
>jerk off to Shibi like the rest of us?
No! My sister is live!

>>81215093
no Shibi hates us…..

>>81214782
Or maybe they are just... part of the same thing?
>cue mystery music
Studies made by Doctor Cunnynghtom in 2017 show that if you're mentally weak enough to be a pedophile, you're probably mentally weak enough to be retarded

>>81215058
>jerk off
she said no cumming!

Immy stream is live btw

>>81215146
yeah sorry she hates me the most and I am the reason she won't do it

Shibi really is the best this is some of the best gfe I’ve ever seen

>>81214992
I really hate taking the side of thread shitters but it's true that pinpals are way too fucking aggressive.
I get that you love your oshi, fuck me if I don't but fucking christ relax

Ah a flanking maneuver he’s getting crafty

>>81215180
nah im good, thanks pinpal.

I love my madam and her ever-growing clinginess! Please continue to smother us in love

>see hands
>instantly hard

>>81215405
damn bro even im not that far gone

oh shit 2 handcams in 2 days
sick

>>81215398
She really is the best I love her so fucking much

>>81215405
where shes posting this, i can only hear the shower noises

>>81215481
Immy not Shibi

She’s hasn’t been horny she fucking hates us it’s over

>brushing her hair, kissing her wet neck
HHHNNNNNGGGGGG

>>81215555
I've been suffering while she has it so easy....

aint no way this is her regular voice
Even her accent sounds off kek

A children's toy

I want to lick shibis clit while she showers

>>81215686
yeah me, she can rub me all over her body while she showers

That soap on shibi's body and especially her 10lb each titties?
yeah, that's me

BRING THAT DICK HERE BOY

what's immy going to do with all this lube after the stream is over

This is Shibi she’s my gf it’s true she just said it just now I love my gf

>>81215869
let's just say my dick is REALLY big

>>81215869
Pour it on my cock then lick it clean

I want to taste Shibi's fazzlenudge

You aren't letting your little sister drink lube all by herself are you?

Me! I can hold them!

>>81215948
hey I have that lube too. Is it actually edible?

>>81216005
I mean it's not meant to be ingested so I doubt it tastes very good or like anything but it won't kill you

>>81215948
Sorry, im a dry fapper

I want a space where Shibi just jerks off with us for the ultimate gfe I neeeeeeed it

her members chat is somehow actually worse

>>81216148
I wanna hear shibi's true live horny voice....

>>81216194
Surprised you didn’t figure that out from her going away stream

>>81216194
what in particular dont you like about her chat?

>>81216209
Same the fansly streams can’t come soon enough I want to make my girlfriend feel as good as she makes me feel

>>81216194
there are a few gray names i definitely don't miss

>>81216194
to me it's not worse but it's much slower so the bad member chatters are more noticeable

>>81216005
I can't tell since I don't read moonrunes but it's water based so it should be fine. It taste better than real cum but it's still not worth drinking.

>>81215948
my lube didnt come in time, it comes tomorrow

>>81216338
nta but agreed.

>>81215948
I don't have flavored lube, but I plan on getting her favorite(s)

>>81215948
I'd be drinking for a while.

>>81216194
List out every chatter you don’t like.

>>81216381
YES stinky Shibi best Shibi

>bad member chatters
urgh you guys are so judgmental... its a fucking youtube chat and i get judged harsher than i do by my boss and colleagues at work

>>81216447
If you list my name i'm becoming the new threadshitter anti

>>81216447
nta but would love mikey to kiss a shotgun

>>81216485
You're talking to my wife of course I'm going to judge you harshly.

>>81216485
the randoms I don't recognize are fine but there's a few in there that were discussing trying to dox her one time, those guys can fuck right off

>>81216534
That’s a given. Anyone else

immy is licking stronny's tentacle

I NEED a nursing handjob from Shibi with her big natural mom tits

Was Immy one of those zoomers that ate tide pods?

>>81216668
YOURE IN MY HEAD I literally just wondered if she was a tide pod kid

>>81216668
Forcing Immy to eat a tide pod while i fuck her then helping her wash her mouth out after...

>>81216485
The only thing I judge is bad super chatters. But when they do something cringe they usually get made fun of by the girl/chat

Am I a bad chatter?

>>81217107
I want to complain about you all day

>>81217107
The worst.

please god let it be august 1st and not the 31st of july

>>81217129
>>81217135
Thanks guys.
Now I’m going to be even worse out of spite.

>>81217107
Yes and for your crimes you will have your testicles tied in a pretzel knot.

The difference my oshi and everyone else's in VAllure is so vast at this point, that I just don't know what to do anymore. She always seems so distant compared to the other. I just want her to love us. She says the words, but it always feels rote and redundant and we're never taken care of. I don't know what to do. Why does everything turn to suffering?

no one tell shibi I'm gooning to her armpit while listening to her

>>81217388
who is your oshi Brother?

My oshi>>>>your oshi

>>81217443
I won't say. I don't wanna hurt her feelings.

>>81217388
this but in a good and better way

can someone spoonfeed me the command line for ytarchive with cookies file.

>>81217520
if i don't know your oshi then how can i help you? hope you feel better anon.

>>81217388
gotta be M or A

>advertising in a members stream
ayo thats what i pay 6 dollars a month for

>>81217604
Definitely not M. I don't watch A tho

>>81217564
https://youtu.be/jZLqNocSQDM
Watch this and then do after doing it do the same for ytarchive

Sorry Immy i only drink water...

>>81217669
idk, "says the words but doesnt take care of us" thing could refer to being less parasocial/doing less lewd stuff content than the others. it definitely cant be any of the other 4 imo

>I'll be playing those "Aro gees" Mercy likes to play
Is there a horseshoe theory, but for boomers and zoomers?

>>81217970
>Aro gees
Anon?

>>81218048
That is how Immy tried to pronounce eroge...

>>81218103
Just making sure.

https://x.com/i/spaces/1YpKklXyOvwGj/peek
new madam shibi space

>>81217940
>doing less lewd stuff content than the others.
I didn't realize my Oshi had to be sexposting on twitter to prove she loved us.

>>81218276
Shibi shower pt. 5 (working on the pits)

>>81218328
i agree with you, im trying to work out why HE might feel his oshi doesnt love him, and guess which one it is based off what he said

i'm gonna tap the sign

i love immy, do you love immy?

>>81218506
Immy is the best sister in the world, and she's the only girl I need in my life, and I love her a lot!

>>81218506
With all my heart.

>>81218506
just a little bit
obsessively, overwhelmingly, i love her so much it hurts

>>81218506
I love her too much for my own good

New Icey patreon out

>>81218506
I love her a lot!

basically just said "i dont like how mercy does yandere lol"

>>81217564
https://recanon.neocities.org/guide/
Coming back, didn't fully read your post. Check the ytarchive guide here: https://recanon.neocities.org/guide/

>>81218506
I do actually. Immy has become apart of every facet of my life.

>>81218818
thanks boo

shibi dolling herself up just for me

Damn, that scream somehow has awoken something in me...

>>81219118
>>81219155
I want more!

>immy earraping me as a prank
>me raping immy in retaliation (consensual)

immy is eating the lube that is supposed to go a womans pussy. so this is like lesbian content?

>>81219269
NEED

She called me a good boy aaaaaa

SHE SAID IT

>good boy
on the one hand i dont like that my little sister is calling me good boy when im supposed to be the big brother who's in charge
but on the other hand i love it...

>>81219609
Im her good boy

Now I'm hard...

It was all was all I ever wanted and more, I love you so much Immy

I LOVE IMMY

God I love her so much
>>81219828
I need that dom immy fansly asmr…

>>81219828
I've been hard the whole stream...

It's not a crime to fantasize about oppai loli Immy is it
if it is then take me to prison because I don't want to stop

she's gone......

homobegger spotted

>>81219828
>>81220286
pathetic posts

>recommending a homo
Why

How is it possible to have a homobegger here

Best 10$ I spent in my entire life

>>81220378
You’re a hero

I know i said id buy Immys favorite but i have never tasted banana flavoring that wasn't disgusting and im worried her taste buds are fucked

>>81220484
then buy the 2nd favorite

>>81220484
>her taste buds are fucked
This girl seems to live off of pink Monster and beef jerky so I'd say this is probably true

>>81220484
>>81220600
she also burps so much she might get GERD

Wtf is this game Maeve is playing?

>>81219623
just because we're the big bros doesn't necessarily mean we don't need to hear how good of a boys we are eh? it's fine to letting your guard down every once in a while and completely surrendering to your sister and have her way with you.

Basking in the afterglow of immy saying all those good boys

>>81220932
Oh my god I want immy to rape me!
I really hope she does some dominant content on fansly

1:25:55
Yes, I'm rewatching it on loop

>>81221038
The way she says it to anon…

>>81221071
That anon? Yeah, me

>>81220932
I'm not into sub stuff, but hearing her say I'm a good boy after a hard day is fucking amazing. Not even sexual, it just fills my heart

>>81220932
>it's fine to letting your guard down every once in a while
b-but then i'm vulnerable

>>81221258
>Not even sexual, it just fills my heart
that's exactly what's up. god knows i need it right about now

I've said it before but it's fun reading the liveposting out of context. It looks like you guys had fun ignoring the random homobegger appearance

>>81221353
>spoiler
Many, if not all of us do

>>81221325
I trust immy enough to be vulnerable around her.

>>81221449
We did have fun! And it was some random 'juan' that suggested raiding a homostar.

>>81221480
I can see where this one and other Pinpals are coming from.
I felt safe, protected and trusting in Madam Shibi's latest stream where she put make up on me.

>>81220378
Are you that mikey

https://x.com/ImmyBisouNSFW/status/1815172421869093227#m

https://twitter.com/ImmyBisouNSFW/status/1815172421869093227
I wish i was her hand

>>81221740

>>81221630
Can't wait for your Madam to come back, i want to see the Harems liveposting.

I swear Immy's posts age like fine wine. They're usually better out of context.

immy should hire me as her personal asscheek scratcher, so her pretty nails won't break off. think about it immy

>>81222003
what if Immy actually does have a massive butthole? like unreasonably large to the point that it's off-putting? would you still love her?

>>81222211
why would she hire out when she can just ask her big brother, (Me)?

So what were the pinpals watching? Was it a members only stream.... w-what happened? I would never cheat on my oshi or anything, but... maybe... I'm looking for a new oshi? I-it's sounds like you were well taken care of.... whatever stream it was.

>>81222257
that's hot desu

>>81222282
It wasnt even lewd, and she screamed at us

>>81222257
Why would that even be a question? That'd just mean more for me to lick.

>>81222257
more to lickove

>>81222211
I want to gnaw on every itch that immy gets on her cute little ass

>>81222409 (me)
kek wtf
it's supposed to say lick

>>81222257
Would I?

>>81222481
>>81222409
I thought you just combined lick and love into a new word and it made sense

>>81222568
i totally did hehe not a typo whatsoever!

>>81222257
Without question, I would love my little sister even if she had a Nikokado coin slot, that's how much I love her.

>>81222257
It would be my daily duty to suck it every day, yes

Here's Shibi's Shower Spaces btw

Part 1
https://files.catbox.moe/dfwn12.m4a

Part 2
https://files.catbox.moe/6piljd.m4a

>>81222257
I hope she'd do this with it.

>>81222923
Thanks, i'll listen to them before i sleep again

>>81222923
Cheers.

the size of the asshole isnt normally a concern, most women are concerned about the color of the skin around the asshole. when its too dark, a lot of women bleach it to make it look more appealing and attractive

I wanna french kiss Immy’s rosebud

I want Immy to hug me and tell me everything's going to be alright

>>81223280
i want to hug immy and tell her everything is going to be alright

Rough anal with Immy and then taking a pic of her gaping butthole...

>>81223153
what if I got bleach on my t-shirt? then ima feel like an asshole

>>81223153
I don't care what color it is, hell she could paint it green and i'd still tongue it like it was the last bit of yogurt.

>>81223280
>>81223362
There is nothing more that I want in life than to be immy’s rock and lean on her in turn. Us trusting each other to let down the barriers we put up. Us as a team living and loving each other together.

>>81223477
she'll get under your skin if you let her...

>>81223280
You dirty fucking slut! I want that too.

I would give Immy the world if she let me rough up her asshole

>>81223280
>>81223362
>>81223578
I will never get to hug or be hugged by her...

>>81223578
best post itt

>>81223578
Women find that kind of shit disgusting, bro. They don't want to be emotional support for a guy. It's a real turn-off and makes them think of you as not a man.

>>81223578
You just perfectly outlined exactly what I want in a partner and I don't believe I'll ever get it.

>>81223931
you been dating women from the 1860s?

>>81223931
That might be true but Immy is my little sister, she's family. And she always will be

>>81223931
I said it earlier in the thread anon, I trust her. She’s already said that she loves me when I’m not at my best and I plan to stick with her and show her that I will do the same, I won’t cut and run.

https://twitter.com/ImmyBisouNSFW/status/1815183951234736228
No...

>>81224630
She's right you know.

>>81224630
I keep falling more and more for her...

>>81224630
I-... Recently I enjoyed the Elden Ring expansion!

>>81223578
Not a pinpal but this would be nice.

>>81224630(me)
Fuck, i don't want to survive till the end of year, i have no reason/thing that motivates me enough to actually LIVE please, just let me enjoy whats happening now to the fullest i can without worrying about the future...

Time to listen to after dark on repeat again...

>>81224630
(I don't know how to feel about this)

She really does care about us.
I love you immy. Really. Not sure what to say to this.

she's basically saying "damn son you got some issues, i dont know how to deal with that, go touch some grass"

>>81224630
I'm so jealous pinpals.... I just want to be talked to like this.

>>81224630
KEK
not that she isn't right but now that i read from an outside perspective maybe it's time to slow down on the goslingposting

She's not wrong, but male loneliness is incredibly hard to cure in current year, especially if you're out of college. We're all here posting in /vag/ for a reason.

>>81224630
I've been spiraling a little and needed to hear this. Thanks Immy.
I didn't write whatever sad posting triggered this though, I bottle my emotions like a real man

>>81225885
Yeah but watching Youtube and posting on 4chan won't fix it either.
Ironically you might have to stop watching Immy to find true happiness, idk.

>>81225943
was it getting that heavy in itt?

>>81226039
nta but
>true happiness
Im the happiest i've been in my life, i look forwards to her streams and just her in general. but i guess its not true happiness if im still suicidal kek

>>81226193
seemed like a normal sunday to me

>>81226193
I haven't seen anything too bad here, I figure people are venting in her maros. We gosling here and there but nothing too extreme

I'm depressed now

https://x.com/immybisounsfw/status/1815190633633472590

https://twitter.com/ImmyBisouNSFW/status/1815190633633472590
Thanks for making me smile Immy

>>81226494
There she goes breaking me out of my funk. Thank you for making me smile too immy

>>81224630
you see, the problem with that is immy never had to live her life in despair knowing that she'd never get to experience immy paizuri.

anyways, i'm just about drunk enough for another mercy puzzle. that should set the mood for bed. sending in 5 i think

>>81223153
a bit of discoloration is the whole point, I think fully bleached assholes just look boring

>>81224630
Not even the girls in the whorpo can resist expressing their ick towards loser men..
This feels so back handed. I'm sorry for being lonely and afraid of outside I guess. I feel sick.

retard

>>81226482
>>81226494
Immy sucking out 28 years of sadness from my cock

>>81227027
Your sweet little sister is trying to help you feel happier faggot.
You'd give any other girl the ick though

>>81226482

immy i haven't felt happiness in 10 years you don't know what you're in for

I can't take this, it's too much of an immersion break. I watch them for Escapism, not to tell me that it seems I don't have happiness in my life. That's just too... real. Goodbye Immy

>>81227328
If she was trying to make me feel better she wouldn't be directly mentioning "NO other sources of happiness than my streams"
It might not be a conscious effort to mock low value men but it still betrays her disgust.

You're almost certainly baiting but, i would hate myself if i never tried.
>i'm sorry for being lonely and afraid of outside i guess
Thats not what shes saying at all Brother. Shes saying she wants you to try and find happiness so you're not only happy when shes around, she wants to be A highlight of your day not the ONLY highlight if your life. She wants you to fight back against your loneliness and your fear of the outside. She wants you to be happy Brother.
sorry for biting, and sorry Immy but you're the only thing i look forward to everyday right now

That's what having an oshi is all about, nonny. Let your love for her shape your love for you and use that to fuel your efforts.

My problem is i have no reason/motivation to give meaning to my suffering. I wish i could say Immy is that but i don't need to live for her to be happy, i know all of you will make her happy in my stead. So y'all better not fucking let me down.

>>81231503
thx tobs

>>81232025
i'm gonna make her cry and you can't do anything about it

>>81232505
