Interviews & Rec (10/?)
Eli is a male, period. Whether the film explained it or not, it’s still a fact and you are being ignorant by misgendering and refusing the acknowledge it.
^This is not how you win someone over to your opinion.
[^X Logical Fallacy Referee] Not sharing your opinion is not a sign of “being ignorant.” As of now, all of your asks will be deleted. If an Ask sounds remotely like something from you, it will be deleted. This is a fandom blog for entertainment, not a US Presidential Debate.
Since this is our last exchange, I’ll answer for the sake of showing my followers that I will not be bullied by an anonymous person:
- As previously stated twice now: I did not read the book, I saw the 2 film adaptations. Based on my interpretation of them AND what readers of the book have told me privately, I concluded that Eli can be referred to with female pronouns. I’ve repeatedly stated that that’s just my opinion and I have NEVER tried to force it on anyone else.
- I added to the original post that Eli’s gender is ambiguous, which is a compromise, even though I disagreed with you.
- An anonymous person cannot convince me of a “fact” when even the author of the original book has not convinced 100% of their readers of said “fact.” The author could tell me to refer to Eli with male pronouns and I might still
politely
refuse. Why should the author care what one reader thinks? Anne Rice has had to deal with FAR worse from her readers.
- I linked to David Lowery, at least one example of another person who also found it ambiguous, so unfollow me and inform that blogger, and many others, of your truth.
I saw that someone asked you about AR not mentioning Armand, and I hope that person isn’t too upset because Anne mentioned in a comment some weeks ago that Armand is definitely in the book (although he doesn’t play a major role) so that’s something! I completely understand, I can’t live without him either
Yep it was on FB. @kittyslover (one of my ARFB Deputies!) sent me the link to AR’s post from 9/24/16 [X], here’s confirmation that Armand is there:
And bc of the lengths I go to for you ppl, I read all the relevant comments and screencapped these for you (I cropped out icons so the text could be a little larger).
She also had to describe vampire shipping again. *sigh* I JUST TALKED ABOUT THIS FFS #your headcanon may vary.

Hit the jump for more. Cut for length.

She also answered these which didn’t fit above:
AND that this incorporated the older Atlantis novel she had been working on:
Louis: If, by some miracle, you and Lestat switched roles for a day, what would you do with the newfound advantage of Lestat being forced to go along with your escapades for a change?
♠Oh, but he does go along with my “escapades.” Quite often. His ghostwriter just doesn’t write about it in his books. Few realize that ours is not the one-sided relationship it may appear to be on the surface.
…decided not to be so emotional and overreacting [X]
