The Shikome

Loyal to a fault, desperate for the affection of their friends and confused as to what the big deal is with romantic relationships, the Shikome is the epitome of someone who cares deeply about their friends, whether that friendship is equal or otherwise. They would do anything for their friends, but find themselves being pushed to the side as their friends priorities change. However, how the Shikome chooses to handle this can lead them down a very dark path.
