Melody Monroe thought it over. Even though she didn't have much to say to others about the situation, she decided to stop by her fan group chat.
She owed an explanation to the fans who had always supported her.
After the news about Ian broke, her follower count had dropped. Keith Coleman ran the numbers and found that most of those who had unfollowed were male fans.
She lost over 10,000 followers, but the numbers stabilized afterward.
The fan group chat was quiet. Everyone had been so busy with the voting campaign for so long, and some had even gone a full day and night without sleep.
"Good evening, everyone."
Melody Monroe sent the first message, a simple greeting.
"Melody?"
"Whoa, is it really Melody?"
"I'm not seeing things, am I?!"
"Melody, Melody!"
The group chat instantly exploded with activity. In less than a minute, hundreds of messages flooded in.
Watching their enthusiastic responses, Melody Monroe couldn't get a word in edgewise.
