Me Three....

1. Tell you why I friended you.

I honestly don't remember now what my reason was at the time. I think it may have had to do with EyrieCon, but I can't swear to it.



2. Associate you with something - fandom, a song, a colour, a photo, etc.

Bellydancing



3. Tell you something I like about you.

Your joi de vie. There is far too much negativity in the world, and you manage to offset more of it than most people do.

And you don't object to me being lecherous when you talk about your bellydancing. ;-)



4. Tell you a memory I have of you.

The story of how you found out that the versions of the fanfic stories you were being given had been "edited for content," when your "editor" overlooked one phrase and failed to remove the words "and slid out" ::G::



5. Ask something I've always wanted to know about you.

What was your first reaction, in #4?



6. Tell you my favorite user pic of yours.

Your default one. I've always thought frost-patterns were lovely, while being unpretentious. Unfortunately, most people do not appreciate them for the wonders that they are. In short, a perfect userpic for you. 8-)

1. Tell you why I friended you.

I can tell this one is going to be a hard one for everyone who replies to this, because most of them have been of my friendslist for a very long time now.

I can't swear to it, but I suspect it was because of your involvement in the Eyrie, and EyrieCon.



2. Associate you with something - fandom, a song, a colour, a photo, etc.

Sailing.



3. Tell you something I like about you.

That you seem more willing than most to stand up and say, "This is who I am. It would be really nice if you like that, but if you don't, I will still survive."



4. Tell you a memory I have of you.

Staying up all night with you, us sitting on that big green leather couch in our living room, watching Stargate DVDs and talking.



5. Ask something I've always wanted to know about you.

I know that you've lived in several countries. What made you decide to settle (at least for now) in Ireland?



6. Tell you my favorite user pic of yours.

The Dr. Who one titled "Listening - Trying to understand." From what I've noticed, you do that a lot.

1. Tell you why I friended you.

You've been on my f-list for so many years that I don't remember the original reason any more. Whatever it was, I'm glad that I did. :-)



2. Associate you with something - fandom, a song, a colour, a photo, etc.

The SCA, and Texas.



3. Tell you something I like about you.

That you smile and laugh so easily and so freely. That is uncommon, and it brings answering smiles from those around you.



4. Tell you a memory I have of you.

You telling me about your Scottish Beau, and me being able to "hear" your smile even over a chat session.



5. Ask something I've always wanted to know about you.

What made you choose the SCA persona that you did?



6. Tell you my favorite user pic of yours.

The Frost Castle -- beautiful, magical, and blazing with its own inner light. Kinda like someone I could name... ::S::

I've always enjoyed Celtic things and culture. I'm Scotish by blood, Clan Buchan, so it was very easy for me to find my nitch. Now that my dream of actually going to Scotland has been fulfilled (though I'd go back in a heartbeat..lol) I feel even more the Celt. Doesn't hurt that I now even have some of my own tartan to wear. grin

1. Twas Eyrie related - I was on Rhi's mailing list for updates...
2. Wow - interesting
3. At first I was puzzled by this - then I read again and understood. But it's less a great decision or stand - I just don't know how to be any other way than how I am.
4. I liked that night. I liked that whole visit - including place we went for lunch one day and had a dessert that was truly gorgeous, which is why it's a pity I can't remember what it was or where...
6. Because I'm not good at being other than I am- I try to understand where I am misunderstanding or making assumptions. I live in a predominantly monocultural society. There is so much I just don't have exposure to - so I've never stopped to think about and I want to KNOW - which means I have to ask.

5. At heart I'm Irish. I understand this country. It's small, everyone knows everyone and we are rarely at odds with anyone in the world. And I'm lazy. If I were to live somewhere else I'm like it if they spoke English. When I'm overseas I miss Irish music and I love this land. It's a bone deep need to be part of this land. I could live somewhere else but my heart, my soul will always be here.
But then I'm an idealist - I probably see this land through rose coloured glasses.

The reason why I always associate you with sailing (which I probably should have explained before ::G::) is because I remember us talking during that all-nighter about how much you liked sailing, and how you really needed to put on another 1-2 stone in order to have enough mass to be one of the ones leaning way out to the side of the boat.

As for seeing Ireland through rose-coloured glasses... I think we all see "home" that way to a certain extent.
