..... I just found out that one of the girls that I used to RP with in the Hetalia fandom passed away a few hours ago (10:30 PM in their time).

.... There were two admins running a Belarus page and both girls were from Belarus themselves. They were very, very close friends, practically sisters. I got to know a little about them and interact via Chatzy when my friend used to host them. They were a little younger than I was I think (or maybe older, I don't exactly remember). This was last year

Early this year, just a few days after New Year's, one of the girls collapsed and fell into a coma. Her friend was heartbroken and kept us updated through the Belarus page and decided to delete the page. Now, many months later, that admin who was in a coma, passed away. An Italy page who was the few in contact reported this to the Hetalia Facebook community

I was shocked. That, and I vaguely.... as bad as it sounds, vaguely remember both of them, hence the shock since I heard no news from them in most of the year. I still feel terrible for the one who's still living. She lost a sisterly figure, a girl who would listen and care for her and they grew up together. And now she's alone. They're both so young... I can't stand thinking about it. And I can only imagine what she, her family and closer friends are feeling. I can only hope they stay strong.

Rest in peace, dear Holly. You were loved by many fans and friends of the Hetalian community and most of all, you were loved by your best friend.
