Lily

As I looked through pictures of Eliza and I, I started thinking about the tribute to Eliza during TATINOF. I knew I'd be doing it, but I want to do some kind of tribute before TATINOF and livestream it.

Wait.

Eliza's favorite color, no matter how much she denied it, was pink.

I got it!

Pink hair!

I smiled at myself as I ran downstairs to tell Dan my idea.

"Dan Dan Dan Dan Dan Dan Dan!" I said excitedly.

He chuckled. "Someone's excited."

"I just got a wonderful idea, but it involves a trip to the store."

"What is it?"

"A pre-TATINOF tribute livestream thing."

"What do you have in mind?"

"Dying my hair pink."

"Why pink?"

"No matter how much Eliza denied it, pink was always her favorite color."

"That's an awesome idea!" He stood up. "Let's go to the store now."

Time Skip

"Is everything ready?" I asked as I came downstairs, wearing an old, worn-out shirt I couldn't care less about.

"Almost!" Dan said. "Just arranging the moderating stuff to monitor the livestream."

"Alright."

I laid out towels by the makeshift hair-dying setup I had by and around the kitchen sink. Phil was testing the recording equipment while Taylor finished the setup and Emma triple-checked everything. When everything was ready, I gave Dan a signal to start.

"3 ... 2 ... 1 ... and we are live on YouTube!"

I took a deep breath. "Hey, guys! It's RainbowLily here with my first ever livestream, I guess. I have Emma and Taylor here helping with the stuff in front of us and Dan and Phil helping out with equipment and livestream monitoring."

Dan pointed out who everyone was before I could continue.

"So, I have decided to do a pre-TATINOF tribute. I have hair dye remover, gloves, random bowls for a reason I've already forgotten, towels, and pink hair dye."

"Wait, why pink?" Taylor asked.

"Glad you asked. Well, no matter how much Eliza denied it, her favorite color was always pink, so I decided to dye my hair pink."

Dan gave a signal that he had paused the livestream. I jogged over and asked what was up.

"People are suggesting TATINOF show attendee tributes, like posters, shirts, and stuff."

"Dan, you didn't have to pause the livestream. You could've just said the suggestions."

"Alright."

I jogged back to the station before we continued and Dan read the suggestions. We decided to have people do whatever they wanted to do within reason as a tribute to Eliza during TATINOF.

I grabbed the hair dye remover. "Moving on, let's start this process."

"Do you want us to do this part for you?" Emma asked.

"Yeah. Just scrub it in, let it sit for a minute, and then wash it out, which I could do myself, honestly."

"Alright."

They began the process, me giggling because of how stupid I must look, causing everyone to laugh.

"I can't believe I decided to livestream this," I said.

When that was done, Dan paused the livestream so as not to bore the viewers. Taylor, Emma, and I sung a random song of Taylor's to pass the time. When that was over, the livestream was resumed, and we got down to business.

Well, we had to wash out the blue hair dye first.

When it came time for the hair dye, Dan jumped into Emma's place since she needed a break, so Phil took over Dan's job (moderator) and Emma took Phil's (cameraman).

"How the f--- do I even do this?!" Dan exclaimed.

I laughed. "There's instructions on the bottle."

He sighed. "Right."

Taylor chuckled. "Wow, Dan."

After Dan read the instructions, he and Taylor helped me put the hair dye in. I don't think we really anticipated the mess we'd make, but seriously, the dye was everywhere. No joke.

"How are we supposed to clean this up?" Taylor asked, surveying the mess.

"Someone just said in the chat to clean it up before it dries," Phil said, "or it will be permanent."

I let my hair dangle above a towel. "Then we need to get it cleaned up."

"Should we end the livestream then?" Emma asked.

I nodded. "Yeah."

I did my outro the best I could before the livestream was ended.

"Well, that was fun. Now, we have a mess to clean up. How fun."
