Valentines Day, A guide to wooing: Titans

[u]/* DISCLAIMER: This is not a guide to help you with a real life person. I wrote this for comedic and lore purposes and is not intended to actually help you with anyone in 3D world. */[/u] [b]A bit about Titans:[/b] You need to know more about Titans eh? Well, there is what you already know, big, strong and able to solve just about any problem with their fist as long as it’s not wearing a hooded cloak (believe me, I’ve tried). I’m not going to lie, personally I think the Titans are the most noble out of the guardians, the lords of Iron were the ones who built the walls which keep the city safe, to this day they remain guarding them, strong and resilient, ready to fend off any enemy that would threaten the remnants of humanity. This probably has to do with why you fell for one dear reader. Moving on, Titans can be very intimidating, why wouldn’t they be? They can be very austere people in terms of image (big and intimidating) and strictness to the rules (no running in the hangar). This is a misconception however, while Titans do hold a certain adherence to rules and regulations, they are still pretty affable people, well, most of them at least. It’s easier than you think to talk to them, just try, as long as you don’t intentionally make one angry your rib cage will stay un-fractured and intact. Like anything with a tough outer shell, Titans can in fact be very squishy on the inside, speaking metaphorically of course, and literally to an extent, torsos can be squishy. Titans may seem cold and emotionless at a glance, but with myself being friends with a few, I can assure you that Titans are not in any way apathetic or bland. They laugh, they cry (even if they will never admit it), they put, they keep secrets, Titans are just as conscious as the next guardian. For every single thing a Titans hates, there is at least one thing that same Titan absolutely adores, whether it be tulips or chocolate covered strawberries. Shaxx likes kittens and Zavala loves rocky road ice cream, just to give examples (sorry guys). Your job as the admirer is to figure out what this is, and utilize it. [b]A Titan may have affection for you if:[/b] -If they seem quirkier than usual around you (e.g. fidgeting, Titans almost never fidget). -They walk a few paces infront of you to be the decoy when outside of the wall. -Defenders tell you they have a sudden urge to take you home and protect you from all danger. -Defenders set up a bubble around you no matter how unthreatening an attack may seem. -Strikers try to solve all your problems by punching them. -They lie to the Vanguard or Shaxx on your behalf. -If they ask for your approval regarding their armor shader. [b]Warlocks:[/b] If you are a warlock looking to impress a Titan, you do in fact have an edge, an advantage. Literature, most Titans love reading believe it or not, The Art of War by Sun Tzu is a favorite among them. Bring up your favorite books with them, compare, make recommendations, it’s always fun to discuss books. As for other knowledge, Titans do like learning new things as long as it’s something practical to their line of work. With that said if you try to teach them how to determine which way is North by locating Polaris using the Leo and Little Dipper constellations on the celestial sphere, you’re probably not going to have an easy time. [b]Hunters:[/b] One would think that the exact opposite of a Titan would be a Hunter, opposite ends of the same side. One stands for order and structure whilst the other is more the type to value autonomy above their responsibilities and obligations. Some would also think this would make it difficult for a Titan and a Hunter to form either a strong friendship or an intimate relationship, I beg to differ, I actually think this has to potential to make them stronger. With that out of the way, there is one thing Titans value on par with order, which would courage. You Hunters are the very essence of bravery, show it. Titans love a good story, tell them about your misadventures beyond the safety of the wall. Tell them about the time you snuck into the Devils Layer and snuck back out with a bag full of ether seeds, tell them about the time you crash landed on Venus and had to survive on nothing but your water rations and local vegetation for weeks before help arrived. [b]Ideal Gift:[/b] A book, refer to Shaxx or Zavala for suggestions. [b]Fun Fact: [/b] Titans are more likely to mumble in their sleep, common phrases include ‘smash’ and ‘get in the bubble’. [b]Wooing Warlock :[/b] [i]Coming soon, real soon[/i] [b]Wooing Hunters :[/b][i]Coming soon, I swear I'm working as fast as I can, go watch paint dry or something.[/i]
