Lowell House, on the Feast of Ste. Margaret of Scotland

Taken from aishuu:
a. Choose 10 people from your friends list at random.
b. Write something about/to each of them.
c. Don't tell anyone who the statements are about. Good or bad. No matter how they beg!
d. But please do try to guess. That's what makes this fun!

I didn't necessarily pick my closest friends or just RL friends or even just fandom friends, so all of you are potentially "recipients". ^_~

1. I don't know how I ended up on your friends list, and while you're a cool person, sometimes your more private posts make me squeamish.
2. You're a brilliant writer, and I want to see you published just so I can get your autograph.
3. Lately I've been getting the impression that you would forget to keep in touch with me if I didn't continue to contact you.
4. I want your taste in music. ^_________^
5. I don't know why, but sometimes I feel like you're growing up too fast for me.
6. I'm amazed by how much anime you watch. You're one of those people who keep tempting me into starting new series.
7. I wish you'd stop ending up in situations where you get hurt. I'm afraid you'll end up burning yourself out too quickly.
8. Sometimes, you're a little overdramatic. But I admire you for doing your best to keep a sense of perspective.
9. One day, I will visit you. That's a promise.
10. I enjoy reading your LJ because your world seems simultaneously so similar and yet so different from mine. That reminds me, I should comment more often.

Actually, these are rather ambiguous. Er...

From worldserpent:

1. When did you first "friend" me?
2. Why did you first "friend" me?
3. What posts of mine do you like to read the best?
4. What would you like me to write about that I don't?
5. Do you think we would be friends in real life?
6. How often do you read my journal?
7. What do we have in common?
8. Will you post this in your journal too?
9. Do I actually resemble any character from your fandoms in your eyes?

I'd really like to hear an answer to the last one. ^_^ Okay, now I should really go get my clothes from the dryer.

Yours &c.

if i'm on here... 10, 2 or 8.

(Am I in the list? #6? ^^;)

1) Wow. I can't remember ^^; A year, two years?
2) Cos you're COOL.
3) Everything, actually. Extra-special love for kendo posts, your thoughts on your field of study, DRAMA WATCHING, life ruminations. And of course: fic.
4) I can't think of one. ^^; But I would like you to write more (and more) about your professional interests.
5) I really hope so 3>
6) Whenever I check my flist.
7) Actually I think we do have a lot in common. Essentially, a certain mind-set toward things and people and relationships XD
8) I guess.
9) Whenever I think of you, I think longingly of dramas, and writing, actually. I have no idea WHY, except that I possibly view you as a character-in-the-making (a meta-character!) rather than as something already extant in the fandom plane of existence, if that makes any sense ^^; But if I must really choose... Miki, from Utena XD

Uberdork!

I am nine am I not? If not, then you really need to visit me. ;_;

1. When you two finally dragged me into LJ
2. Because you dragged me into LJ
3. The ones about your life. And Kendo. Well, since often, it is both. ^_^;; Oh, and any fics.
4. Er...pass.
5. ...maybe...^_^
6. More often than you write~~!! ::cough:: As often as I check my LJ?
7. A liver.
8. Sure.
9. Hm...toughie. You remind me I guess of Kurama, but with Hiei's temper/(non)affinity for people/social situations. Uber smart/dorky yet somehow creepifying. Never ever ever want to end up as your enemy and face Youko Kurama/Angry!Hiei. (Hah, I am flashbacking to this fic, where Kurama is abducted in the middle of class and his classmates are like "OMG, they took Minamoto back to his home planet!")

O.o

1. Relatively recently?
2. Your blog is fairly interesting, and you friended me, so I did.
3. Three Kingdoms. XD
4. Uhhh..
5. I see no reason why not.
6. When it pops up on my flist.
7. We're both part of the pathetically tiny English speaking fandom of Ravages of Time. XD I suspect we both share certain literary tastes.
8. I have.
9. Dunno.

Ummm... The non-kendo/bio ones... lala, where does that leave us? :runs away:
4. What would you like me to write about that I don't?
Myu? Your dramatic, hopelessly sappy romantic part of life!
5. Do you think we would be friends in real life?
I don't know... hmmmmm. What do you think? :runs away:

#10 is the only one i could possibly be, i think, unless i'm more of a drama queen than i think.

1. like a couple of weeks ago..
2. why not?
3. kendo posts, for obvious reasons.
4. dragons. your lj could use more dragons. (??)
5. :)
6. depends on the procrastination situation...fairly regularly though.
7. i'd say the main thing is masochism. i also suspect our senses of humor intersect here and there.
8. nah, nobody read mine.
9. ...i've sworn off fandom. unless you count like, watching baseball (in that case, no).

[tokyofish.livejournal.com]

1. A while ago? ^__^;
2. I think I was friends' list surfing and I read some posts of yours and went, hmmmm, interesting! XD
3. Your opinions on series, etc. I think intellectually you're above me ^__^; which sometimes makes parsing your school-related/philosophical posts a bit difficult.
4. You should drabble more!
5. Yesh, why not? XD
6. When you've got a new post? ^__^
7. BLEACH. Shaman King! A time zone! I actually don't think we're very much alike, but I think that's what makes our friendship interesting! ^___^
8. Already did!
9. Hmmm . . . Dragon Girl from Return of the Condor Heroes! ^_____^

As good a way to leave a 'Hi, I'm . . .' note as any other:

1. After reading "A Love Spell" on Chain of Fics. Btw, what do you know about the Korean literary tradition?
2. The Fudomine cram school fic was interesting.
7. Prince of Tennis, academic overload (or so I presume), and ethnicity, for what that's worth.
