Jee. I left it to you.... Crossing posts but it's there. Both ways. Perfect co-op. It's YOURS! (BTW, what's a friender?) Is it edible?  As stated, it's taking up the way friend is used on FaceBook (anyone who wants to friend me, or be friended, just PM me and we can go from there. I already have 2 WS friends on FB...) as a verb. If there is objection to that, you can use INFERRED instead, which has the same letters. Anyhoo, Aramis is fine to jump in. All I have to do is: REFERENDI -F REINDEERVoila! :0) I've never eaten one, but I would!

a past participle is a verb form. Ok--but how was I to know friended [Webster's 1828] was a past participle? Couldn't it be an adjective?

Lost in the page turn, perhaps: Can we go from REINDEER to DASHER to DANCER to ... and DONDER and BLITZEN and maybe even to RUDOLF?
And can we do it all before ten more days has elapsed?
I'll give a head start:
REINDEER
drop R to make NEEDIER
drop E DENIER
E --> A RAINED
N --> S RAISED
I --> H DASHER H --> N RENDS

Well, I was hoping to stop off and see Dancer and Prancer and the rest of them along the way.
DRONE
CRONE
CRANE
DANCER
(though we could have done it more directly with DASHER --> HARDEN --> DANCER)
Prancer, you're next!
