That’s good that the police are concerned for your safety and have offered to give you & your crew a safe ride home! Yes, I would think that Armand does get this kind of interaction,
more because if the fact that he was under 21 when he was turned and not so much bc of the vampire beauty (from TVA):
I would never be anything but the seventeen-year-old boy you see now… [but] I am not a waif and never have been. I am a strong child.
Even if he looked “strong,” I’m an adult and it would concern me to see a 17 year old out in a bar late at night, too! I wouldn’t approach him myself, but I might worry that he’s in danger and alert a staff member. From my experience in many states in the US, it is a liability for a bar or club to have underage people even in their building, so most don’t even allow underage people in at all.
Armand probably has a big deck of fake ID’s that say he’s 21, though, and some people really do look younger than they are… combine that with his Mind Whammy abilities, so I’m sure he gets in wherever he wants.
All of you. I want all of you! To each and every one of my followers AND ppl who don’t follow me but do see this message, consider it directly to you! No losing anyone, keep everyone in 2017! A fandom needs ppl who make fanworks AND it needs ppl who flail over it, applaud, or enjoy stuff privately w/o engaging, we need everyone.
[^We barely get to see her glove in this shot, white lace/fishnet, very cool, so I ‘shopped 2 stills together to capture her hand and her expression here <3]
You know, I didn’t realize this was a question until I went into book!IWTV and started skimming w/ my *~deadly competency~* (I like that!) to answer you.
The short answer: It looks like it’s Louis’ fault for saying her eyes are violet ONCE, just once, during IWTV. So I’d say that was a trick of the light in that scene, or smtg, bc Lestat and Jesse say Claudia’s eyes are/were blue.
They don’t specify what kind of blue, though.
I headcanon Claudia’s eyes as being blue. Specifically, I would say a light blue. Most fanartists make them varied shades of blue, but usually not dark blue, and not blue-green.
IIRC, her eye color isn’t really elaborated on, but her eyes are often described as being “liquid,” or absorbing the light in the area, so do with that information what you will.
Here’s one of the more memorable examples of her eyes being described, but not by their color (Louis in IWTV again):
I turned around and saw in the light from the street her eyes, like two dark flames in her white face. A doll from whom someone had cruelly ripped the eyes and replaced them with a demonic fire.
^Dark flames? And blue? IDK but I’d go with that.
Hit the jump for a few canon quotes about her eye color.
A) Blue eyes:
“ `It was something hurried,’ I said, trying now to meet her eyes. How perfectly, coldly blue they were. How earnest.
^This is Louis talking about Claudia’s eyes when he’s trying to explain what making love was like, from IWTV.
The child moved into the light from the window as she came towards Jesse, and the light struck her blue eyes, her rounded cheeks, her soft naked little arms.
^This is Jesse talking about ghost!Claudia in QOTD, but then that’s a ghost… so idk if you count that.
I saw Claudia quite vividly… a tiny oval portrait on porcelain – golden hair, blue eyes. Something fierce and true in the expression, in spite of the saccharine colors and the oval frame.
^Lestat talking about the locket w/ Claudia’s portrait in TOBT, which he had stolen from her dead mom bc hey, you can’t take it w/ you!
B) Violet eyes:
” `But is there no crime amongst you, no cardinal crime?’ Claudia asked. Her violet eyes seemed fixed on me, even in the mirror, as I stood with my back to her.
^Later in IWTV, Louis says her eyes are violet, but it’s only on one page, and, IIRC, Lestat never describes her eyes are violet… I can’t explain that but it seems like mistake, or it was a trick of the lighting, idk!
