Explaining my blog

The amazing Anni @whatagreatproblemtohave tagged me to do this. Thank you, it was so fun 🤗🌺

Header:

I made this TPWK rainbow collage while bored in quarantine, and one day there was sunlight and shadows dancing directly over it. So I filmed it and made a gif out of it, but honestly the result is not as pretty as it was irl. 

Icon:

Louis (aka the love of my life) laughing while playing table tennis during the 2017 Observer photoshoot. Actually the mobile version might still be my previous icon (which was Astronaut DMD Larry), but I refuse to use the mobile app :)

Description:

idk how much I need to explain, but let’s see

Emmanuelle/E. because you can use either of them :)

“stuck in Canada” is obviously a reference to the current lockdown situation, but it sounds more dramatic than it actually is. Basically I’ve been living in Canada for the past 3 years because I’m studying here, but my program is coming to an end in a few months, and I’m still not sure if I’ll be able/want to go back to France then

“stuck in the 1d fandom for the foreseeable future”: as Harry would say, it’s pretty self-explanatory. But for those of you who don’t know, I only got into 1d at the beginning of the year, so I’m definitely still in that honeymoon phase, which was probably amplified by being in self-isolation and deciding to create a blog. Oops 😳

“Ace in every way”: because I’m ace, but I also try to be an ace human, as the British would say 😝

and then a link to my AO3 profile (I’m writing Larry fics there)

Content:

anything 1d related with a strong emphasis on Louis and Larry, quite a lot of Harry/Zayn/Liam/Ziam/Zouis as well. I know there’s not enough Niall content and I apologize in advance to any Niall stans out there 😔 Otherwise I follow a few BBC Merlin accounts so you’ll sometimes see me reblog Merlin stuff, and other TV/film/music stuff as well. Plus, like Ani, more political stuff and also queer-related content when I come across it on my dash. And sometimes I’ll pop off about my wip or fics I’m reading.

Background colour:

turquoise green but I think I’ll change it back to lavender

Text colour:

white, which is why I’d like to change my background colour. right now they’re clashing

Url meaning:

“quel sentiment” is supposed to be the french translation of “what a feeling”, which is my favourite 1d song. But I realized with horror a few weeks ago that a better translation would have been “quelle sensation”. But it’s too late now and I quite like my url the way it is 🤷‍♀️

Blog title meaning:

"everybody needs someone around”

as I said What A Feeling is my favourite 1d song and this line has always stuck with me. I think it’s quite a nice reminder to seek out connection with other people, especially during lockdown. And in a way this blog has allowed me to do that because I’ve met so many great people ever since I created it a few months ago, so thank you folks 🥰

(also i made a deal with myself that I’d get this line tattooed if 1d does something for their anniversary 😳)

Random:

I’m adding this section to explain some of the more obscure tags I’m using 😳

“kju” means queue (I study linguistics and [kju] would be the phonetic transcription of the word 🙄)

“solune” is my Larry tag because “soleil”= sun and “lune”=moon, therefore “solune”=🌞🌜=those 2 idiots

“all the love”: I’m using this one to tag all the posts that feature some of the boys interacting together, if it’s not ot5/ot4/Larry

“otfp” stands for One True Friendship Pairing and that’s my Zouis tag 😔

I think everything else is, once again, pretty self-explanatory 😝

Tagging some new friends, aka @pinkpoppunk @strawberrylight and @merrrrrrrrry as well as @citronlou because somehow I always wondered about her url but it’s remained a mystery so far 😝 Also if you see this and want to do it, please consider yourself tagged 💜
