What do you look for in a friend? I'm pretty shy around people I don't know well, so people who are outgoing and friendly are easiest for me to get along with. Someone who's laid-back, optimistic, and doesn't stress over the little things, but isn't lazy or careless. Someone who's loyal, honest and trustworthy. Someone who will listen to me when I need to talk about something serious and will encourage me. But not someone who will agree with me no matter what; someone who I can learn from; someone who will let me know when they think I'm doing something wrong. Someone who wants me to succeed and do my best, and will be there to catch me if I fall. Someone who likes to try new things and won't judge me for the things I like. Someone who accepts me and loves me for who I am right now, but also wants to help me become the person I want to be.
What would you do if a friend betrayed you? Just because someone hurts me doesn't mean I stop loving them; I'm the type of person who forgives my friends and gives them another chance. I'd probably go somewhere private where I could cry about it until I was calm enough to handle the situation. Then I'd go talk to them about it and find out what happened. If they're honestly sorry for what they did, I don't see why we can't go on being friends. But it will take a while before I can trust them like I did before.
Mention one friend you'll never forget, and why? ...I love all of my friends very much, but I'll never forget Jessie. She and I have been friends for as long as I can remember, and to this day she's my very best friend. We can do anything together, talk about anything together...I trust her completely and I know she'll always have my back. She's always thinking about other people and doing what she can to help them, and she's always so cute and happy! ♥
Mention one comment from a friend you'll never forget, and why? One night, about a month ago, after my little sister, Emily, and I had crawled into our beds and turned off the lights, we started talking. I won't bore you all with details, but she just listened to everything I had to say, and then said, "Maybe you don't think that you're making a big difference in people's lives, but you do, atleast in mine. You've helped me out so many times, even if you don't realize it. I wouldn't be who I am today if it wasn't for you, and I would be so sad without you in my life." I hadn't been expecting it, but it was exactly what I needed to hear, and I was so touched that I started to cry.

Leader or Follower? I don't like to be the leader because I always worry that I won't live up to people's expectations. I'm much happier being a follower! But that's not to say that I'll just blindly follow anyone; I follow someone because I think what they're doing is right. If they start doing things that I believe are wrong, I won't hesitate to leave.
Listening or Speaking? This depends on the relationship I have with the person. When I'm in a big group of people or with someone I don't know very well, I prefer to just listen so I can get to know them better. When I'm with my really close friends, I never know when to stop talking!
Going out or Staying indoors? I can go either way! As long as I'm with someone I love, it doesn't really matter what we do. ♥
Partying all night or quiet evening alone/with someone? I tend to get lost in the crowd, so I don't do well with parties. I'd prefer a nice one-on-one conversation over a cup of coffee. ♥ Or perhaps something a little less chaotic than a party, like going to see a play or a movie?

Do you prefer your friends to be like you or different? Honestly, I think I do like people who are a little more similar to me, but it's important that we're not too similar or we'll run out of things to talk about.
Would you say yes to a favor before knowing what it is? Uhhh...I think I usually do, since most of the time people just ask for little things like a ride to a friend's house or money for a meal. Now that I think about it, perhaps it's a bad habit to get into...? ._.;;
When asked for advice, do you say what they want to hear or what you know they should hear? This is a touchy topic for me, because I once had a close friend get really upset with me for the advice I gave her. Despite that, I've come to the conclusion that it's best to tell them how I really feel, especially if it's about something important, and just make sure that I speak to them gently and with respect for their feelings. After I say what I have to say, I let them know that ultimately they need to decide for themselves--after all, my advice could be flawed--and I encourage them that no matter what decision they make, I'll always love them and be there to support them.
Your friend tells you she/he is about to do something that you think is stupid or simply suicidal. What do you do? Honestly, I'd probably start crying. I know it doesn't help the situation at all, but I just can't help it! I'd talk to them about what's going on and why they're doing something like this, remind them how much I care about them and how much they mean to me, try to get them to think logically about the situation and plead with them to change their mind. If we're talking about suicide, and it comes down to it, I'd try to stop them by force.
Are secrets kept safe with you? Yes, definitely. Trust is very, very important to me. As long as keeping the secret won't hurt anyone, it's safe with me.

Imagine you were a happy little person living your own sweet life when your friend suddenly asks you to help him/her on something. That something involves a looong journey that'll take months and no promises you'll get home alive. What do you do? Well, first I'd have to make sure that my family would be okay without me around for a while. But unless there's some family crisis going on, I'd definitely go! Even if it's dangerous, even if I have to take a break from work and school for a year or more...you only get to live once, and I want to live my life loving others and helping them in any way I can. If this is something important to my friend, then I want to be there to support them in it!
In battle, would you rather stay a little behind, supporting your friend (either with healing/long-range attacks) or right by his/her side, fighting? I really don't want to fight if I can avoid it. But I want to do everything I can to protect my friend, so I would be as near as I could without getting in their way, healing them and warning them of enemies they might not see. And perhaps, if it was really needed, I might do a bit of long-range fighting.
Name up to two Fire Emblem characters you do NOT see yourself getting along with: Hmmm, probably Shinon because he's so sarcastic and blunt, and I'm a pretty gullible person, so I don't think he'd have a lot of patience with me. Plus he drinks a lot, which bothers me. And Rennac, because he's lazy, good for nothing, and pretty much just a creeper. :/
