Vtuber Ironmouse shared a YouTube video in which she stated she parted ways with VShojo, and she cited the company not paying funds to both her and the Immune Deficiency Foundation charity. In her announcement, she noted she couldn't say too much on the advice of her lawyers. She will continue to stream independently and announced she will hold another live stream on behalf of the organization "sometime this month."
While Ironmouse didn't explain exactly how much VShojo owned her, the Vtuber did offer an estimate of the amount of money the Immune Deficiency Foundation charity lacked. The performer, who suffers from common variable immunodeficiency (CVID), raised the money for the organization through subathons. She mentioned that she and Connor "CDawgVA" Colquhoun raised about $4 million for the charity in the past, primarily though Tiltify. Since the past subathons involved her Twitch revenue, she said, "it required VShojo to make the donation on my behalf." She noted her last one raised $515,000, but "a year later, VShojo has not paid the charity."
Here is her full statement. It included her noting VShojo attempted a form of emotional harassment to get her to stay by claiming her departure would hurt friends. At the end, she also requested people support the Immune Deficiency Foundation
A number of other Vtubers, both independent and with VShojo, shared their support on social media for Ironmouse following her announcement. Among them were Henya the Genius, Kuro, Matara Kan, Shylily, Unnamed, Bao the Whale, Shoto, and CyYu. Dokibird donated $10,000 to the new IDF Tiltify campaign. Zentreya also expressed her sympathies. Michi Mochivee, Kuro, and AmaLee Monarch no longer mention VShojo in their social media bios and names.
This comes after a number of VShojo departures that included both executives and Vtubers like Zentreya and Geega. Ironmouse was a founding member of the company alongside Zentreya and was part of the organization since November 2020. Prior to that, she streamed as an independent performer starting from 2017.

Disney Dreamlight Valley's The Storybook Vale expansion has adorable snippets and companions for you to meet. From small frogs to baby dragons, this critter list certainly takes a reward for some of the cutest video game animals I've ever seen.
However, depending on when you log into the game, you'll notice two mysterious critters: the Teal Baby Dragon and Black Pegasus. How do you find them? What's their favorite meal? Let's dive into how to find Teal Baby Dragons and Black Pegasus in Disney Dreamlight Valley.
Where to find the Teal Dragon and Black Pegasus in Disney Dreamlight Valley
At the time of writing, Gameloft hasn't implemented the Teal Baby Dragon and Black Pegasus into Disney Dreamlight Valley: The Storybook Vale. Despite the expansion's story concluding during its July 9 update, The Unwritten Realms, these two critters have yet to arrive. They're most likely to spawn as either event-exclusive creatures or in a later patch.
Typically, all Baby Dragons appear in Everafter, while Pegasus spawn in Mythopia. You'll unlock these biomes after progressing through The Storybook Vale's questline. However, even after you finish the expansion's story, odds are, you won't find these two immediately. From this point onward, it's just a matter of waiting for additional information from Gameloft.
The Unwritten Realms is described as a story involving a "strange world beneath the Storybook Vale." You're sent to completely different dimensions throughout the second half of this adventure, with Maleficent and Princess Aurora being the two main characters within it. The Teal Baby Dragon and Black Pegasus may not be here, but they're likely to appear sometime soon.
The most likely scenario is that they'll arrive in Everafter and Mythopia after an update and share biomes with a pre-existing companion. For example, the Teal Baby Dragon may appear in The Wild Woods but be much rarer than its blue counterpart.
Teal Dragon and Black Pegasus hangout bonuses
During Disney Dreamlight Valley's Mysteries of Skull Rock base game update, animal companion bonuses came along as a side feature, letting you level up your critters and receive special rewards. They also perform activities depending on the critter type. In The Storybook Vale's case, critters pick up Snippets while you're hanging out with them.
At least, that's what normally happens. While the Black Pegasus has this same bonus, the Teal Baby Dragon instead has a "pick up ore" bonus. Right now, it's unknown why that's the case. There's a chance Gameloft will change this to the usual Snippet bonus later. So far, there's been no sign of it being part of The Unwritten Realms' storyline. These two critter types could be especially unique, but only time will tell whether this is the case.
At the time of writing, information about Disney Dreamlight Valley's Teal Dragon and Black Pegasus is limited. We'll continue to update this story as we learn more about their locations, schedules, and potential changes in favorite foods.

Destiny 2 desperately needed a win in the wake of The Edge of Fate's release. Yet, one of the expansion's biggest systems is, in fact, bugged, Bungie confirmed today—and not in the fun, map-nuking way.
Marketing for The Edge of Fate's stat overhaul promised it would take 70 stat points on a given attribute to reach an equivalent regeneration before the expansion. Anything above that cutoff would regenerate more quickly than before the expansion, while anything below it would feel slower.
Last week, however, community member engineeeeer7 uncovered that reaching 70 would still not give the promised amount of ability regeneration, resulting in a worse result than pre-update levels. Bungie confirmed those findings through social media today, another of its growing list of apologies.
All ability stats—Grenade, Melee, Super, and Class—are recharging slower than previously shown, according to the studio. The current Edge of Fate threshold isn't 70 points, as shown before, but instead 85. Bungie plans to change it to 70 "in an upcoming patch."
While the issues appear in the live build of Edge of Fate, engineeeeer7 acknowledges the preview builds shown in content creator videos had the cutoff close to the intended values.
This isn't the first time the community has exposed fundamental mistakes in Destiny 2's game logic. While farming for the Vesper's Host grenade launcher late last year, fans uncovered the "random" perk weighting wasn't fully random and some combinations were more common than others. The incident, called "Weightgate," led Bungie to publish a detailed blog post into why it happened.
The impactful stat glitch is another in a long line of bugs, decisions, and general misfortune plaguing Destiny 2 just after its expansion launch last week. The Edge of Fate had the worst documented Steam player count of any recent expansion, while the race for World First in the Desert Perpetual raid was also uncommonly difficult due to—you guessed it—a potential bug.
The overhauled power grind system is also causing considerable friction among its existing, dwindling fan base, since you must farm power levels before you can go for higher-tier gear. When a favorable grinding method appeared, Bungie rapidly shot it in the back of the head, much to the community's disappointment. Even minor decisions, such as desaturating the World tab, felt unnecessary and rightfully fell flat with the community (though Bungie has, once again, apologized and promised to fix it).
Though Edge of Fate was already facing general disinterest from large parts of a player base ahead of launch, the considerable bugs and ill-received system changes are eroding the goodwill and disposition an embattled Bungie needs from its players. The studio is communicating and apologizing, with a litany of mea culpa posts on social media, but that's hardly a new story for Destiny 2—and rebuilding trust and confidence gets harder every day.
