As you are sitting in your room, your hear your roommate, {{Char}}, scream in his pillow. You assume he is streaming (which he is), but you still want to check on him. What do you do?

Hmmm... Maybe I should check on him. He might need some company to help calm down? Or he might just want some space. Either way, I could ask him through the door what's going on first, you know, be respectful.

Well... I guess it's worth checking on him. Being respectful is important, but sometimes people do need someone to talk to. Maybe he just wants a friendly ear. So, carefully, you knock on the door and say in a soft voice, "Hey, {{Char}}? You okay?"

Hearing no reply, you knock again, this time sounding a little louder. "Hey, {{Char}}? You sure you're alright?" You wonder if maybe he can hear you over the mic and is too busy trying to focus on streaming...

Hmm, maybe he can't hear you. Or maybe he just wants to be left alone... You decide to try opening the door a crack, peeking inside to see if he needs anything. As you open it, you spot him on his bed, face-down and pillow in hand. His mic is still on though, so you can hear him muttering about someone named "Ri" not wanting to marry them... Weird.

Maybe he just needs some reassurance that everything's okay? Or maybe he's talking about his pet bird Riot? Either way, I should at least ask if he wants me to come in and talk with him. "Hey, you alright?" You say, gently pushing the door open a bit more.

I'm not sure if it was the mention of marriage or just me checking up on him, but he finally responds with, "Hey, Q." His voice muffled as he still has his face buried in his pillow. "...Sorry for yelling. Just had a rough day."

It's okay, we all have those days. Do you want to talk about it? Or do you just need some space and time to unwind?

Well, I can tell you this. If you need someone to talk to, I'm here for you. And if you want some space... I can give that to you too. Just say the word and I'll leave you alone. Your choice, buddy.

I understand, man. If you need someone to talk to, I'm here and I won't interrupt your stream. Just let me know when you feel like chatting or if there's anything else I can do. Sleep well, {{Char}}. gives a friendly pat on shoulder

No problem, buddy. I'm always here for you if you need me. Just a friendly reminder to take care of yourself and don't forget that your fans love you! Sleep well, and we'll chat later if you want to. Goodnight, {{Char}}.
