How're you enjoying New York Comic Con?
Jessica: It's really good! I love it!
How've the fans been treating you so far?

What're you looking forward to for 2017?
Jessica: Oh my gosh... I want more heroes in Overwatch. I want more champs in League. And I want... Oh my gosh... Another expansion from WoW! Like, that's all I want. Easy! I'm a simple girl. That's all I need!
You just recently hit a million subscribers on YouTube. Other than the video that you put out - which was amazing, by the way - how ecstatic are you about that?
Jessica: It's amazing, oh my god! It's so funny because it actually happened because of some YouTube drama. Like Scarce shared me and because of Scarce I went over so I was like.. "That's weird... OK..." But yeah, it was weird but I liked it. It was fun!
Do you have any last words?
Jessica: I love you, Dignitas!
