Is this an enemies to lovers story? 💘

Can flirting improve an encounter with an axe-wielding adventurer and a hostile robot? Gum Gum gives it a try in "Is this an enemies to lovers story? 💘", Tales from the Stinky Dragon's most-watched new upload, with roughly 130,000 views.

The animated Kyborg Kuest scene turns flying sparks into romantic encouragement from the party. Other characters sing and raise lighters while Gum Gum asks the Squadrone what it's doing later. "Killing you," comes the answer. The lipstick is already on. Viewers are making emotional-damage jokes and returning to Gum Gum's unfortunate romantic luck; several had been waiting for this scene to get animated.

Elsewhere, the bard compilation gathers animated and puppet moments around the question of whether D&D's musical adventurers are overpowered or simply fun. The Stinky Cup offers a different assignment: Jon Risinger hunts Blaine Gibson, Chris Demarais, Barbara Dunkelman and Gus Sorola in Dead by Daylight.

The ongoing adventures got their space, too. "C03 - Ep. 55 - Under Oondar Fire - Prospector? I Hardly Know Her!" brings Brutaliteam structural trouble and prospector problems, while the first campaign's "Between The Tales" installment pauses for a recap, leveling up and audience questions.

Subscriber growth was modest, adding about a thousand over the week, while daily viewing is a little above the channel's usual level. Among nearby anime and tabletop channels, ZachTheBold had a much bigger viewing week; Stinky Dragon's weekly views were close to Totally Not Mark's.

The busiest individual upload right now isn't the robot romance. Nearly a month after publication, "When your party member has writer's block 🗿" is drawing almost four times its daily views.
