He does fancy musicians and androgyny! I don’t know Brian Molko, I’ll have to look into him, but I think Lestat would like his aesthetic, and this quote….
I’m so flattered you consider me a VC expert, but I’m not a Let Me In/Let the Right One In expert, I’ve only seen the two movie adaptations, and from what I can tell, the vampire rules in it are different than the VC vampires rules.
I do have a post about my thoughts on Eli and that story here.
Among other great things, this vampire story also brought back the idea of having to be invited in, and without that permission, the vampire in question would start having physical reactions! Like a severe allergic reaction! We got the blood tears that not many vampire movies want (or are able) to tackle.
I think Lestat and Armand both would find Eli intriguing and would want to compare all the physiological differences in their vampirism, test those rules, and generally try to get Eli to push at the limits, and maybe learn something new. Whether they would embrace her and add her into the coven, that I don’t know. #Fanfic request! #Fanart request!
Eli seemed to need/prefer a human companion. I should read the book, it would be great to have some backstory re: if there had been any other vampires in Eli’s life, whether Eli had ever considered turning someone… whether that was even possible given Eli’s trapped-in-a-child/tween-body thing. I think Eli at least had a maker in the book version, but I don’t know why they were separated.
♛This is something I have yet to master myself. I’m more in love with myself than anyone else, so really, when people choose each other over me, it’s more their loss than mine.
It hasn’t happened yet, be glad that your friends are still just your friends. So no need to be truly jealous yet. But yes, being a third wheel is not much fun.
([X] //ooc; ^L/L didn’t do this so explicitly in front of her, but I imagine that’s how Claudia might have felt in general ;A;)
I don’t know enough about your situation to advise you one way or the other, but it is possible to let them date each other if that’s what happens, and their happiness can be your happiness, you don’t have to dump them both as friends just for leaving you out. They’ll still need you separately, if they valued your friendship in the first place.
You can ask them not to slobber all over each other when they’re in your presence, though, that seems like a reasonable request.
Of course, if Louis and David “got together” as they say, and left me out, I’d have a tough time being happy for them. Very tough. No. Impossible. They’re not allowed. Absolutely not!
The main thing to remember is that finding a mate shouldn’t be your mission. If it happens, it happens, and if not, then not. But you should never feel lesser because you’re single. Friendship is as valid as a romantic relationship. In some ways, even more difficult. Different definition of intimacy. I’ve known people whose relationships were based mostly on sex and they had little else really in common. It was enough for them, but it wouldn’t be enough for me.
If they do start dating each other and you can’t be happy for them, you should probably not torment yourself by being around them. Focus on other things you’ve been meaning to do, or meet new people.
“… two wet shriveled things that had been alive, mother and daughter in one another’s arms, the murdered pair on the kitchen floor. But these two lying under the gentle rain were Madeleine and Claudia, … the hand that clutched at the child was whole like a mummy’s hand. But the child, the ancient one, my Claudia, was ashes.”

♛It’s a long story, earned over time, I always had the Brat in me, but the Prince part, well, wasn’t born into that kind of royalty, that election may have been rigged…
My coven gave me this illustrious title as an insult but look at me now! I SHOWED THEM. Now I’m the boss of them all. Hah!
I was going through my inbox, and felt like doing some deeeeeep excavation, here’s a really old one, do you think this anon is still attracted to me, or have they given up? Or are they still waiting on a reply?? *laughcries*
