Meeting People Is Easy
I like to understand what I'm shown.

loves: Léa Seydoux. Daniel Brühl. Adam Driver. Daisy Ridley. Tom Waits. David Lynch. Foreign film. Obscure cinema. Twin Peaks. Tragic soldiers. French women. Outer space romantic tragedies. Writing. Creating. Seeking fulfillment.

A recent transplant from livejournal, I want to use this space to share the creations I've made (and will make), such as fic and graphics. Such posts will not be locked, but my more personal posts will be.

I certainly don't mind meeting new people, which is why I'm here. So if the above sounds agreeable and we have something in common, leave a comment and let's see where this goes.

You're welcome! ♥ I think the major reason I have a tumblr is because it keeps me motivated with making graphics. I'm also aiming to get another fanmix up and more fic.

I'd love to see a picspam for them (and you'd do it beautifully, I'm sure)! While I think IB is Quentin's best work, I've only watched it four times in total, whereas I've watched his other films repeatedly. There's something very different about it, and something so insular and moving about Fredrick and Shosanna that watching them is a bit overwhelming. There is something just so special and eternal about them, and I love that even Quentin loves them so much.

Ok, I just chatted with you on ONTD regarding the beauty that is Audrey/Cooper. Then I came to your journal, already knowing you have great taste...and I'm impressed. You have such impeccable taste - Blue Velvet, feminism, french cinema, etc. The list goes on. May we please be friends? :')

[suspiriorum.livejournal.com]

Well, I am flattered ♥

Why yes, yes we can!

And ugh, I need to update more often around here.

[sendhimaway.livejournal.com]

Nothing much, just setting up camp in your comments section. xoxo

[suspiriorum.livejournal.com]

MOST EXCELLENT. You can creep on me here, too.

[thedead300.livejournal.com]

I am super interested in your interests! Hope we can be livejournal friends!

[suspiriorum.livejournal.com]

Sounds excellent, then! Indeed, we shall ♥

[loulsyri.livejournal.com]

Gosh, I’ve been looking about this specific topic for about an hour, glad i found it in your website!

[cold_clarity]

now...this is a rapid turnaround i suppose, but i'm adding you based on your interests in reading, writing, queerness, feminism, film, and germany. and also your talent with graphics.

...and because people into Inglourious Basterds are always good in my book. :D

[suspiriorum.livejournal.com]

THIS IS MOST AGREEABLE.

There's definitely plenty of those interests to be found here. And especially a lot of IB.

Hi! I'm babypantherextraordinaire over on tumblr, and a big part of the reason why I'm not on there much anymore is because of lj. So, I think it's pretty established already that we get along, and I'd like to be friends with you on here! :)

[suspiriorum.livejournal.com]

OMG ANNA HELLO!

If tumblr were a person, they'd have broken up with me for how often I neglect them. Truth be told, I enjoy being around lj more just because of how more personal it is.

And yes, we shall be friends here! ♥

[lovelysolitude.livejournal.com]

MIRIAM!

Same here. I've made a lot more friends that I talk a lot more often to because of lj.

Yay!

[suspiriorum.livejournal.com]

THIS IS MOST EXCELLENT!

I end up dragging most people I find elsewhere online over here just so my blathering at them can be made that much easier.

And now I can do the same to you!

[lovelysolitude.livejournal.com]

It is good to know we are on the same page here! :D!

[suspiriorum.livejournal.com]

It is! Very much so! ♥

[takethewords.livejournal.com]

Hey hey! I got your comment on my mix and decided to keep on you a bit, hope you don't mind! Lisbeth lover, feminist, queer, and loves Twin Peaks?! I think you would be a great addition to my flist, if I could! :)

[suspiriorum.livejournal.com]

Hello!

Yes, that would be wonderful! ♥

Not-so-secret secret:

I creep on your comm like a creeper. Your fabulous Lisbeth fanmix post is the first time I finally got the nerve to comment (and I'm glad I did!).

[takethewords.livejournal.com]

Yay, adding now! And lol I meant 'creep', oh typos.

I'm glad too! My lj is slightly abandoned right now but I'm gonna try to post more this year.

[suspiriorum.livejournal.com]

Fantastic! Keeping or creeping, I don't mind either.

Posting more here has been something of a resolution for me, and turning more of my focus back onto my writing will help with that, I think.

And if all else fails, then I'll post pictures of my cats.

[takethewords.livejournal.com]

Ugh my fic writing has declined drastically over the years, it's pretty sad.

And the internet is always in need of more cat pictures, I always say. XD

[suspiriorum.livejournal.com]

I have an on-going WIP that takes up most of my fic writing time, but then I get distracted by other ideas I convince myself I have to write (because I must!), so I'm constantly scribbling something out. But I'd probably get more done if I honed my focus better and quit staying up all night watching foreign films.

I hope you feel inspired enough sometime this year to pick it back up again! I've mostly snooped through your Billie/David fic and I really just love your way with words; you have a great mix of humor and heart to go along with the sexiness, which I enjoy.

ALWAYS. I am especially convinced it is entirely necessary that I do my part.

[takethewords.livejournal.com]

Oooh, any recs for foreign films?

And awww, thank you so much! I miss those days. I've written a lot of fic for The Social Network, well not a lot but some, I just haven't posted it at my comm.

I hesitate to continue spamming your fo post, but what kind of cats do you have? I have two, Audrey and Tyler, a Calico and a Tabby, respectively. :)

[suspiriorum.livejournal.com]

I HAVE SO MANY. But, here are a few I think you may just enjoy: La Belle Personne (French), Goodbye Lenin! (German), Saturn in Opposition (Italian), and Last Life in the Universe (Thai/Japanese). If you want to get a little more adventurous/fantastical, then you must see Diva (French) and Wings of Desire (German). I'm most enamored with foreign films of the '80s, late '90s and into the mid 2000s. There's just this specific kind of feel to films of those time periods that I can't quite explain but that I really love.

You're quite welcome! Ah, the film that really made me take notice of Rooney Mara. I was never too involved in the fandom, but one of my good friends just adored it. Who'd have thought that such a film could be made about a social networking site? Also, now I gotta do more creeping on your lj.

Continue! I love a good conversation! I have two cats, as well, Beatrix and Tomas. Beatrix was nearly feral and very young when I found her. She was also, unknown to me, pregnant. She looks like she could be some kind of wildcat, as her coloring allows her to blend into the outdoors well enough, along with having little black tufts of fur at the tips of her ears. According to the vet, Beatrix is a mix of other breeds. I suspect she was born a stray; she's very independent and capable of surviving on her own if she had to. She's very friendly, but only to people she knows.

She had Tomas under my bed. Which was surprising. I woke up one Saturday to hear tiny meowing, and that was that. Tomas is stripey and varying shades of gray with white. He's probably the most relaxed cat I've ever had, which probably stems from having him since birth. He is like his mother, though, in regards to the fact that he's wary of strangers.

Come this spring, they'll be seven and six years old.

I think that was the most I've gone on about my cats on the internet. Audrey and Tyler sound lovely! Tomas did have a Calico sister, but she had deformities and only made it to about three days. I was told that Calicos can have those kinds of health issues? Whatever the case, I kept her company and made certain she was as comfortable as possible. She was pretty tenacious all the way through, much like her mother.

[takethewords.livejournal.com]

Oooh, thank you! I've seen La Belle, but none of the others. Have you seen Blind? It's Dutch, it's so lovely.

Rooney was lovely in it. I am just so obsessed with her Lisbeth right now. Like it sounds dumb but she came around just at the right time in my life, she's so strong and independent and beautiful. Have you read the books?

And haha actually all my TSN fic is at archive of our own (http://archiveofourown.org/users/takethewords), which I really have been meaning to update with ALL my fic but obviously haven't. lol

Omg, surprise!kittens! That is the most adorable story. I'm so sorry you lost one of them! I've had an insane amount of pets during my life and it always hurts to lose one even if it's just after three days.

I think Calicos have lots of attitude. lol Audrey is either really in the mood for love or just ya know, doing her thing. XD But she's really sweet and well behaved.

Tyler is the most insane momma's boy. XD If I go to the bathroom most times he'll stick his paws under the door. lol He's also a troublemaker, but I love him. I'll probably post some new pictures to lj tomorrow. :)
