You heard something about streaming or something before fading out of consciousness. Every now and then when recovering your eyes would open for a second or two and see either someone in a suit and sunglasses or some odd looking girl... Like they may have been plucked out of an anime. One time when I was conscious for a bit longer I smelled something good and asked "Food?" or something, then there was a shriek or something, and then when I looked up there was some young woman in some stylized chief's uniform spraying me with something which made me fall asleep again.
Some time later I woke up properly my body feeling pretty refreshed. I woke up in what looked like... some sort of crypt... or at least a crypt looking bedroom. The bed I was in looking like a Coffin... looking at the side there was even a lid. Why wasn't I in my apartment or a hospital? Not sure what was going on I walked... well limped my way to the door. There seemed to be some noises and people on the other side, but despite feeling refreshed my body didn't feel like it was responding to me well yet. I fumbled with the door for a bit, but I opened it and I heard there was more noise on the other side... maybe some shrieking, but the door was stuck? No, someone on the other side was holding the door and they were... Kinda shiny...
A gentle voice said "Um, we were in a lul in the stream but it's not time for your debut. So could you just wait in your room?" then she started to jiggle the door a bit and accidentally hit your head and you fell down to the ground and went unconscious yet again. Finally the next time you woke up it was actually coherent. You were back in your coffin bed thing and there was a guy in a suit sitting at a corner.
He noticed you and said "Welcome back to the world of the living, Ms. Scart. I'm sure you must be very confused and disoriented. Any questions so far?"
You lifted yourself into a seated position and asked "Where am I?"
"VSL Mansion. A nice multi-bedroom house where VSL houses our RLV-Streamers at least this English branch."
"What does that mean?"
"VSL... Virtual-Streamer-Live, We are a company that works with V-tubers. RLV-streamers are Real Life Virtual-Streamers that are like V-tubers but their personas actually exist in real life. Speaking of which... No one's streaming right now so... Wanna be introduced to your co-workers?"
"I guess...." your voice felt a bit weird... your body felt weird in general, but the man in the suit helped you out of bed and walked you out into a properly lit room. It looked like some pristine looking modern designed living room where there seemed to be three girls hanging around. One playing a game, another on her phone, and a third curling some dumbbells... The third looking more like a man with her height and muscles.
The man said "Excuse me ladies, You're new Co-worker and roommate has recovered enough!"
The girl playing the game paused and said "Hey, Welcome to the House. I'm Yuka, I specialize in singing and dancing." She was wearing normal clothes right now, but she seemed to have a nice smile, long flowing blonde hair, and a decent line of cleavage.
The girl who was on the phone said "Hi, I'm Julie Rams. I specialize in cooking streams." You recognized her red hair and general body structure despite her not wearing that weird cook uniform.
You asked "Didn't you pepper spray me or something?"
She looked a little embarrassed and said "Well... Management wanted to build you up a little, and brought you're coffin out now and then. They gave us a spray bottle that they said would put you to sleep to let you recover faster."
The suit supporting you said "You needed a lot of time to rest, but with this industry you need to build up and keep hype going."
Julie smiled and said "We should show you the clips you were in. Chat seemed to like you."
The girl doing dumbells said "I'm Victoria! Knight of Avalon, and exercise specialist extraordinar!!!"
You felt a little dumbfounded, but the suit said "This will be Quill, didn't really know what she was good at so we gave her a more interesting aesthetic."
you asked "Um... What do I look like?.." Julie took a picture and then walked up to show you. You were mostly covered in bandages, but your figure was that of a young woman with a moderate sized bust. Your skin however was white on the verge of being grey, and every now and then there were some stitches that you hoped were aesthetic. "...I look dead..."
"Undead" Julie said "Still from what I hear you should be relatively healthy."
The suit said "We didn't skimp on the surgery. We took care of anything that ailed you... Was a bit of a rather full body surgery..."
Yuka said "Well we should have a little fun, get to know you better, and maybe figure out what types of things you'd primarily stream."
You initially wanted to protest that you weren't really able to read the contract first, but considering you didn't look normal and probably wouldn't have a great career after this in normal society... You also considered you had been unemployed and presumed to be dead to most of the people in your life... Did anyone tell your family about the surgery?... Oh god if any of them saw you like this... Still while this wasn't what you imagined as your career... Beats being dead and you may as well try giving this an actual shot.
