@web-of-intrigue "Nice!" Eleanor wasn't always the best at explaining a certain topic however she was glad he seemed to somewhat understand her "Exactly. With acting, you put yourself aside and become a new person. You feel the way they do and everything else in between. I know most people don't take acting as a serious profession but I enjoy it. It's all I've known truly. Well, aside from the very limited singing gigs I do. I just love how I'm able to express myself while acting. Even if it's not me per se. I still feel as though it is," She didn't seem to mind his quietness, if anything it wasn't something she was used to. Although, she only hoped he wasn't bored or annoyed with her eager side

Eleanor explaining what an edit was was indeed helpful to the man. "A montage. Got it." He mumbled. As for Alex, he was still sitting upright, albeit in a slumped over way. How Eleanor spoke about acting was interesting, to say the least. It had definitely caught his attention. Maybe he even felt... like he could relate to her based on it. He wanted to tell her that, but how would he explain his unique situation? Deciding against it, he took the simple route and said, "It's like having many faces for different occasions, I guess... Uh." Wow, he was bad at talking to people, he thought. He hoped it was enough of an answer. Being on the quieter side didn't help him sometimes.

@web-of-intrigue "Well, basically, an edit is where someone gathers either pictures or clips from a movie, show or whatever honestly, and put them together. Then with that, they add in music and effects. So, to shorten, sort of in a way, a montage," Eleanor slumped into her couch more, allowing herself to become comfortable "Acting isn't as easy as some may say. You have to learn about one topic for so long, depending on who you are as a person, the character you play becomes a part of yourself. It's difficult sometimes when you let go of that character. It's like saying goodbye to a part of yourself. And, God, it sucks even more when you say goodbye to your costars. Yes, I stay friends with some of them. But sometimes, we just part our ways. I miss a friend of mine. We don't see each other often anymore,"
