Comment and I'll--
1 - Tell you why I friended you.
2 - Associate you with something. A fandom, a song, a colour, a piece of fruit. SOMETHING.
3 - Tell you something I like about you.
4 - Tell you a memory I have of you.
5 - Associate you with a character/pairing.
6 - Ask something I've always wanted to know about you. (Or else I'll just ask a random question. I reserve that right.)
7 - Tell you my favorite user pic of yours.
8 - In return, you must spread this disease in your LJ.

The caveat applies that after about 5 replies I might burn out and stop answering.

This is a comment.
Figuring I might be avoiding burnout, given the distance between post and me getting around to saying something about it.

1 - Tell you why I friended you. - because you friended me first, and because you had intelligent and unusual things to say for yourself when i asked.
2 - Associate you with something. A fandom, a song, a colour, a piece of fruit. SOMETHING. - at first i associated you as a gamer...afterward you have branched out for me til i associate you with lots of things
3 - Tell you something I like about you. - your honesty and respect. you do not fail to treat your friends with either that i can see.
4 - Tell you a memory I have of you. - i remember your first few private e-mails to me like a ray of sunshine...the broadening of our friendship into something beyond the public, and the feeling that you truly trusted me with who you are. it felt like a big compliment.
5 - Associate you with a character/pairing. - alas, i know none of your characters. nor can i think of any made by others that i think suit you.
6 - Ask something I've always wanted to know about you. (Or else I'll just ask a random question. I reserve that right.) do you believe in regrets or do you think everything is worth what we pay for?
7 - Tell you my favorite user pic of yours. - the cairn with the sword. it makes me think of the sword in the stone...but it makes me think of value left with the dead. and i think there is truth in that image.
8 - In return, you must spread this disease in your LJ.

2. *chuckles* Glad I am of that. I may be a gamer geek, but I like to think there is more to me than that.

4. It was.

5. I would love for you to meet some of my characters at some point. Might send you some chunks of Lazarus someday or something along those lines. Interestingly enough, the bombshell from last night is making me think I need to go back to my vague concept of trying to earn some sort of income with my brain, possibly with my writing, and I'm going to need to find ways to pursue that.

6. I'm not sure if I believe in either of those concepts. There is a mix of reaction in my head - there are things I would have like to have happened differently. Either my actions changing, or those of others changing - but at the same time, I can follow the lifepaths from those moments and those choices and see the positive things I have gained through the angst.
Case in point: If I had never chosen to try CSF, I never would have met the individual who I experimented with relationships with, and thus never would have met the man I married, and thus never would have ended up wearing myself down to the point where I got sick, and thus never would have ended up in the middle of nowhere trading housework for room and board, and thus never would have met Sidhebear through EQ, and thus never would have found you.... and I rather like the meeting you part.
Convoluted, but the point is in there.
For every awful thing that happens, we end up branching out and having different sets of choices. All the ones I've analyzed ended up leading me to someone or something or a life lesson that I value.

7. I like that choice and the explanation for it.
