Part of me wishes that it was a game where you tried to connect the comment with the friend, and got the key at the end
Exactly!!!1!
Yeah, I can also see that it could be liberating for the recipient, because it's about receiving and you supposedly can't find the people to pay back, so you have to/get to just let go and enjoy it.
ETA: It's funny you tried to gloss over things that would make you identifiable, because the comment I think is you is the one I'm most confident of. But maybe I'm totally off.
LOL Yeah, I wasn';t super stealthy, and well - you know me pretty well :) :) I was just gonna say that I'll gladly tell you - if you like. Of course, I'm pretty sure you got it right, cause I'm pretty sure you repeated one of the words I used in the message that - well, you know, could have been from anyone, of course. :-) :-)
When I read it I was sorry I couldn't make such claims, cause I know you're wonderful, but the inside and out get mixed up online... one thing diminished by stealthiness was that you are not just one of my favorite people in fandom - but one of my favorite people.
Ooh, you left the one comment I said I couldn't place! It was very sweet. I'm far too lazy to be a BNF, though. :-)
Now I wonder who left the comment I thought was you. No one who'd be commenting on the meme knows what my outside looks like--I have to assume they meant my outward persona, and also how I am privately?? There aren't that many people who'd call me friend, and I can't figure out which one of them it is. Maybe this is an example of someone feeling comfortable gushing anon when they'd be too shy to say it under their name.
Hee, thought that might be the case! Mine is also kinda that sort of "this is anon, I can be playful", though I meant it - and fine, don't bnf, then, but people need to know the awesomeness of your writing
