If youre in the company of a vampire you dont know what are your statistical odds of dying/unknowingly donating blood?

That entirely depends on the unfamiliar vampire you’re with!

There are a ton of different kinds of vampires out there but the scariest by far are probably those from I Am Legend or 30 Days of Night, they can’t be reasoned with at all and they don’t care if it’s a painful death either btw. So you are definitely gonna die if you meet them. 

Ricean vampires: Your survival/blood donation odds depend on the vampire, their hunger-level, and their style of getting blood. 

For example:

  • Lestat can take a little drink from anyone and not kill, but when he kills he aims for major evildoers (”They’re easier, and they taste better!” so says movie!Lestat), but he does slip up and kill innocents from time to time so you should still be careful.
  • Marius also goes for evildoers. Are you an evildoer? It has to be lots of evil, irredeemable evil. Not just minor evil. So don’t worry about him. 
  • Louis kills indiscriminately so if he’s hunting and he finds you, well you are SOL. Unless you can talk with him a little, if he gets to know you, he can’t kill ya ;]
  • Armand used to go for those who wanted to die already but how much of that was his inspiring that desire in them or they had been wanting it already is up for debate.
  • Daniel um, idk…. I would assume also goes for evildoers…

Do you think that if Claudia was turned at an older age like 18 or something that Louis would of slept with her?

(I assume you mean more than just unconscious sleep, which yes, he did sleep with her, that’s canon)

 Y’know that’s smtg I’ve thought about, too. Was it only her body/age that was the obstacle there? She seemed to think so… or so it seems from what Louis shares with us re: just a few times when she even opened the subject with him.

Particularly that time in Europe when they had just killed the Icky Gross Mindless Vampire, and they’re totally exhausted and hungry, and she offers him her wrist:

“ `Drink,’ she whispered, drawing nearer. `Drink.’ And she held the
soft, tender flesh of the wrist towards me. ‘No, I know what to do;
haven’t I done it in the past?’ I said to her.” <—- REJECTED. I don’t think Claudia shared blood w/ either Lestat or Louis, at least not in any intimate way, ever, which had to have been part of her not-growing-up frustration. 

SO BACK TO THE QUESTION AT HAND: 

No, I don’t think Louis would have slept with Claudia if she had been turned at 18+ bc there were more obstacles than just her physical form. 

  • For one thing, Louis was in a relationship already with Lestat, even though it was a problematic one. 
  • The chemistry between people (even IRL) has to work in that way for there to be any sexual attraction.
  • He always cared for her like a daughter. She was very much his own security blanket, a buffer and a glue between him and Lestat. 
  • She was less human than either of them, which did not seem to be something that made her more attractive, but less comprehensible to him: ” `I love you now with my human nature, if ever had it,’ I said to her.
    “ `Ah yes …’ she answered, still musing. `Yes, and that’s your flaw,
    and why your face was miserable when I said as humans say, ” I hate
    you, “ and why you look at me as you do now. Human nature. I have
    no human nature.’ ”
  • Also, in terms of canon vampire physiology, the Ricean vampires seem to be asexual, blood gives them all the satisfaction they need/want in that regard. It’s in fanon and RP that they’re sexual.

As a side note, claudiaindarkness might have some good opinions on this, bc she often RPs Claudia aged up. thevampire-claudia also had a thread in which Claudia was aged up and *ahem* had some private time with a Louis (merciful-death) if u need some tasteful au smut ;]
