Breeze and I have something in common; I used (use) anime characters as my imaginary friends; Sakura, Syaoran, Fuma and Kamui from X, Seishiro and Subaru from Tokyo Babylon...
When i was little, I have imaginary friends and imaginary children, most of my own creation, others from shows or books. My friend (real) and I like to bring up to above mentioned quite often, for a bit of comical/sadistic/slashy entertainment.
