I guess I've reached the point of being so useless that a close friend straight up dumps me when I put up a boundary and say I need to heal from what happened between us. Guess my use as "I don't have anyone else to listen to me and admire me anyway" expired entirely when they grew too comfortable with parasocial relationship. Of course, real people are pointless, they are too much hassle because they can't be perfect and can't meet ALL one's needs, right?
I mean this is my fault, what else I expected from a bond in which I am not because I am loved, but because I am "the only one who understands"? Never grow close with such people. Being "the only one" is a very weak glue. They will replace you with a newer tool very easily - if not with someone they actually like, then with paracosial bond if not literal imaginary friend that understands them even better.

i thought some more and i think misa would go by kuromi on her fanfic account, the og creators of death note got the name misa from the word 'kuromisa'
kuromi is also the name of this thing
so. it fits her
1000% she would omg !!! that's her icon (she picked the round image option). i love Ohba just going "yeah must have been inspired by kuromisa. ig. i don't remember but it must come from somewhere :)" dude please T_T
Light's icon is just a black square (cropped picture of the death note, very subtle very tasteful) and when L finds the notebook at the end of the yotsuba arc he's like... "that's suspicious. i recognise this paper texture from somewhere" while Ryuk tries not to laugh
