"other" would just be the use of "friend" or talking around it with "someone I know" blah blah "she" blah blah "tass", which is usually how I refer to people, slipping in names and genders without resorting to such terminology whenever possible. "Chick" if only because "elfchick" has somehow insinuated itself into my vocabulary as a rar-stompy-respectful usage of the word "chick" in reference to fae-ish adult females.
Ashran's commentary has reminded me of how I've always liked the Tarot having a knight between page and king, and that most of the guys I'm friends with really fall into that "knight" perceived age and stature category. I wish there were a simple word for it in English (maybe "guy" suffices), but even moreso I wish we had a female analogue to it even in concept.
