(The lovely lady pointing at you would be Choi Jinri, just fyi.)
You can call me Eléonore.
I just spent a year working on illustrating Novalis' blue Flower in a book, medieval style. I did everything. The concept, the drawing, the painting, the calligraphy, the gilding, and ultimately the binding.
I tend to fall madly in love with authors whose writing is fueled by existential emoting. Particularly if one the reason they're existentially traumatized is their issues with writing.
I've had a crazy fetish for all things Artaud since I was seventeen
I'm extremely messy and I do everything last minute. And I'm a perfectionnist. (Yep, sleep deprivation is my evil best friend.
I never drink coffee
I don't have a television set. Never did. But my computer does just as well, unfortunately.
I watch way too much television.
Well, more like I used to watch too much television and now I watch to many k-pop music videos...
I'm a long-hair freak. Braiding always works miracles for my stress and I will watch complicated-updo-with-intricate-braiding-pattern videos for hours when I'm bored. (Needless to say that hair is why I'm watching a lot of movies and shows, really.)
Musicals are my soft spot. And Johnny Depp is my teenage dream - whatever his age.
I have controversial opinions on almost all things medicine. Unfortunately. (It's very tiring.)
I overanalyze everything. Especially my own life.
My enjoyment of fandom is directly proportional to the quantity and quality of my emoting.
I love quoting. If I quote your whole fic back at you, it's because I can't help myself.
Most of the time, my posts get a French title. Deal with it.
It takes me hours to write a post. So I don't write a lot of them. I'm lazy like that.
I like to talk. A lot.
I love hearing about opinions that aren't my own. I really like discussions that are all about disagreement, but still manage to be wonderfully enlightening. Most of the time, I don't expect to be convinced - I'm just curious.

If you think we might get along, drop me a line.
My policy on f-locking?
Fannish posts and rants are unlocked. But I lock my art systematically and, sometimes, fic as well.

Date: 2013-03-20 10:16 pm (UTC)I AM GLAD YOU ARE APPROVING! THIS MUST MEAN YOU ALSO HAVE GOOD TASTE LETS REJOICE IN OUR MUTUAL AWESOMENESS.
sleep is the best/worst thing. especially when combined with time zones.
100% NOT KIDDING. aww, ty. i do kind of like my name, but it's a bit simple? IDK IT COULD BE PRETTIER. people do however misspell it as Eleonore all the time.

Date: 2013-11-13 07:18 pm (UTC)So we have a tonne of mutual friends -- or, at least like, five or six of them -- and I kid you not, everyone is constantly name dropping you. All the time! So on that admittedly feeble basis, I was hoping we could be friends? I'll be reaaaaaaally good and comment all the time and make lots of posts and, I don't even know. But please let me know if you have an LJ friend vacancy! :D

Date: 2013-11-13 08:13 pm (UTC)I'm so ecstatic that you saved me the angst fest of asking you out!!??!! YOU ARE A BRO.
Like, today Alex told me that you were getting into The Heirs (what I'd already seen #stalker) and I was basically help help now I really need to get you to be friends with me because otherwise I will cry. But since your whole journal change and all, I was a little intimidated to ask (even though we technically talked once, about hair yeah, rememberrrrr?) and especially since you're like one of the first people I remember being on the cool list when I got into fandom - so ngl right now I'm pretty much daaaang, I made it this far.
SO LET THIS BE OUR NON CREEPY INTRODUCTION WHERE I TELL YOU THAT YOU CAN CALL ME ELEONORE AND I JUST ASSUME THAT I CAN CALL YOU EMMA BECAUSE.
Oh, and don't worry about posting or commenting! Atm I'm posting like a crazy person because man this show keeps the posts coming, buuut yeah sometimes I kind of die for a while. (And then I post super angsty existential posts that are like novel length, so just a warning? But please don't worry I always spoiler cut these and I absolutely don't expect you to comment on those, so just feel free to ignore whatever you want to ignore - that is the point of cuts!)
(Omfg this is like the worst introduction ever /o\)
Anyway, you are so cute because I have no idea what an LJ friend vacancy even is, but let's not waste any more tiiiiiiime.

Date: 2013-11-13 08:33 pm (UTC)OH MY GOD.
Man, if only I'd known that you were as aware of me (or almost as ~aware of me, or even just ~aware of me of me without being too frightened) as I was of you then I would have asked you out sooooo much sooner!!! Ugh.
I cannot with your introduction. IT IS PERFECT. You are clearly perfect. We're going to get on so well I knoooows it. SO YES PLEASE CALL ME EMMA IT'S A PLEASURE TO MEET YOU ELEONORE. I cannot wait for your existential posts and angsty spoiler posts. I live for that shit. Live for it! :D
Yesssss I plan to start watching The Heirs. I recently(ish) finished Reply 1997 so now I am all out of K-dramas. Well, not now because I just found another one. You know.
P.S Of course I remember our talk about hair. Like, I never forget conversations about the important things in life! xD

Date: 2013-11-13 08:55 pm (UTC)I AM SO HAPPY OMG
And LOL dude I have been more aware of you for a longer time, soooo don't even try. SUCKS THAT WE WERE SUCH CHICKENS BUT HEY WE'RE HERE NOW. Bless kdramas etc etc. (Also, I expect you to be inlove with that derpface in my icon soon. BUT MAYBE YOU ALREADY ARE IF YOU'VE WATCHED SU!FBB? Which I haven't because I fail at everything, but, this doesn't change anything : you must love my babies and this one in particular.) ALSO UM LET'S ALWAYS TALK ABOUT REPLY 1997 BECAUSE FOREVER FOREVER AND HAVE YOU ALREADY READ THE FIC THAT'S BEEN WRITTEN? Just checking.

Date: 2014-03-13 03:02 am (UTC)stalked youcame here and then I read this intro, "If I quote your whole fic back at you, it's because I can't help myself." AHHHH, I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO DOES THAT. I love beautiful writing too much. Sometimes I just wish I could inhale it or disappear into it or something.Anyway, we also seem to have kdramas as a common interest, although to be honest I have given up a on them after watching Heirs but no matter...they might suck me in at some point again. ALWAYS HAPPENS.
So, friends? =P

Eléonore is only the most beautiful name in the world. I will hide away my common name in shame. But yes, nice to meet you. :)
