>>9492719It hit me worse than you think. I had not been checking up on her since the Hikigatari, and she was streaming in the AM before I went to work one morning, so I thought "Oh, how are you doing these days?".
Within the first minute, I realized I'd stumbled into a graduation stream. Coco happened the next day.
I had watched Lulu since her RE2 videos; she was always a chuba I'd refer to when people wanted to know who was genuinely good. I still remember how happy she was when she finally got her 3D model, dropping all kayfabe pretenses and becoming a bubbly, energetic idol for everyone to adore. It was being allowed to see someone's dream come true.
She went from the silly 8-hour gimmick streaming of Rhythm Heaven, a "perfectly normal arts student", to this open-hearted woman whose only wish was to have fun with everyone. I miss her and Debi's interactions still. I miss seeing her at all.

tl;dr I am not doing well, but thanks for asking.
