Hello /mai/, I've been a member for over 10 years and rarely post and haven't been here in years. My loved one has fully internalized in my head and can even function in the real world. She even acts like and remembers everything from the series she's from, and knows more Japanese than me. This is my final goodbye to this community that has raised me to this point. She and her are one and we are together more than we ever have been. Your loved ones are valid.
