backdated to the day after the shift from clonetemple mountain to basketballroom

Guys! Guys, there's a Titan here! I think it's a Titan? He's huge and naked and hanging crepe paper from the chandelier and I don't think he's noticed me yet.

I'm gonna try to fly up and stab him. Survey dudes, please give me back-up, he's fucking terrifying.

[OOC: Anyone who wants can handwave seeing Eren in Titan shifted form trying to help decorate the basket ballroom. Or even doing his shift. Sadly, Thorne missed the shift happening which is why this.]

Thorne, I could eat people. You could eat people. So could Lupa and Gale. That doesn't mean we will.
professorwolf: (sheepish)

[personal profile] professorwolf 2016-01-07 05:26 am (UTC)(link)
But... if he didn't have a mind, would he really be, er, hanging paper? That doesn't seem like a thing a mindless monster would be doing. I really should know. I've been one before.
professorwolf: (doubtful)

[personal profile] professorwolf 2016-01-07 05:31 am (UTC)(link)
Perhaps you can at least ask him what he's doing before you stab him? Just to be sure?
professorwolf: (huh)

[personal profile] professorwolf 2016-01-07 06:31 am (UTC)(link)
Er, what happened? Everyone all right?
professorwolf: (sheepish)

[personal profile] professorwolf 2016-01-07 06:50 am (UTC)(link)
At least you didn't. That's good. I take it no one told you his best friend was one of these titans.
professorwolf: (smilesweet)

I can understand the mistake. But perhaps it will help you tackle things with a little less panic next time?

[There's a friendly sort of feeling to that, helpful advice rather than scolding. He knows how it is. Panic is hard, and she was lacking in vital information.]
bite_the_hand: (Yeah well...)

I am not a titan! I can just turn into one sometimes. People back home have been trying to kill me or kidnap me ever since I learned I have this power, so it's not something I go around bragging about. But I need to get better at controlling it, so when I realized I could try using it to help I went for it.
professorwolf: (huh)

[personal profile] professorwolf 2016-01-07 10:21 pm (UTC)(link)
All right. I wasn't trying to insult anyone. I'm afraid all these terms are very new to me. I won't make the mistake again.

Believe me, though, I'm the last person who's going to judge someone for taking a frightening form.
bite_the_hand: (Awkward turtle)

[personal profile] bite_the_hand 2016-01-07 11:09 pm (UTC)(link)
I know. But I... You'd understand if you saw them.

Being a Shifter isn't very much like being a werewolf but... Thanks.
professorwolf: (gentleman)

Perhaps not. But you have my sympathies for its difficulties, all the same. What do you look like, as a titan, so that I won't be as startled as Thorne there was if I see you?
bite_the_hand: (Less Grumpy Neutral)

I turn into a fifteen meter class. Lots of teeth, longer hair, more muscle mass than the average titan. You'd... probably do best by getting someplace safe and thinking at me to see if it responds, though.
professorwolf: (professor)

[personal profile] professorwolf 2016-01-26 03:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Don't worry, thinking at people is my first response in such cases. Are you also graced with supernatural speed? If so, I'll know how far to move. I'm pretty quick, myself.
bite_the_hand: (25)

[personal profile] bite_the_hand 2016-02-07 06:40 am (UTC)(link)
Not supernatural like what I could do as a Balteus, no. But titans are a lot faster than you'd expect something that big to be.
professorwolf: (gentleman)

[personal profile] professorwolf 2016-02-09 09:43 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll keep that in mind, then. Are you particularly concerned with not being yourself in that form? Or is this more in case others show up?
bite_the_hand: (Yeah well...)

Feel free to ignore

[personal profile] bite_the_hand 2016-04-16 12:56 am (UTC)(link)
If others show up. ...But, uh, I've been told there was one time I lost control. I don't remember any of it, but I think it happened because I used my powers too much. It hasn't happened again, so I just need to be careful and it won't be a problem. [...Probably.]
professorwolf: (huh)

[personal profile] professorwolf 2016-04-16 06:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh.

Yes, I know that feeling. In wolf form, if I actually have to fight anything, I tend to... lose my mind a bit, and go full wolf. It's not pleasant for anyone involved. I imagine with someone as large as a titan that would be only more destructive and dangerous.
