1) When does liking someone a lot become loving that person?
As always, that's a grey area. I guess when they become supremely important to you, beyond the love of a friendship, when you start thinking of the future of the relationship. I can't tell you what the tipping point is, I just know when I approach it.
edit: I read the first question as referencing eros, not necessarily agape. It takes a lot for me to fall in love with someone, but it doesn't take much for me to love them, if we bring agape into the question. I love many people. Even more if I've been drinking.
2) Is there a job you would do for free, and is it your current job?
Yes, and hell no. I like this job, but I wouldn't do it for free.
3) What is one person/thing that inspired you to take action of some sort?
One thing that inspires me to take action is theater. It's the dominant theme in my entire life.
4) Though you might not believe in it, would you like fate to exist?
No. I despise the idea that I have no agency in my life, and that is what I always read fate to be (comes from reading too many Greeks, I suspect). I like the idea of a concordance in the universe, of things coming together properly, but I hesitate to call that fate.
5) What's the kindest thing that anyone has ever done for you?
Many people chipped in, even when they couldn't necessarily afford it, to make it possible for me to move out to San Francisco and begin a new life. I will be forever grateful and in their debt. Their generosity is stunning and humbling and beautiful. And, odds are, if you're reading this? You helped. So thank you.
