Backdated to before the dance

[bite_the_hand]

Before anyone starts yelling about the Titan that's about to be out here by the ice rink, you don't have to be scared of it. That's me. I'm a Titan Shifter, which means I have the power to turn into a Titan and then turn back into a human again. I'm still in control of myself and I'm not going to attack anyone. I'm just helping with the decorations for the party.

[It's all said in a mildly annoyed mental 'voice' that suggests he's making this warning because he's managed to scare more than a few people in the past. And considering this announcement is immediately followed by the sound of an explosion and the appearance of a 15 meter tall monster man by the ice rink, it's likely not hard to see why.]

...Oh, and if any of you get near my feet, make sure I know you're there. I don't want to end up accidentally hurting anybody because I didn't see them when I moved.

I wonder how tall Weiss's Arma Gigas is compared to your titan. That guy's pretty big, too.

[It's an idle thought as he's going around decorating as well.]

[changeitall]

... Depends on how tall the Titan is but I'd say Arma Gigas is short in comparison unless I could make him even taller... But my semblance can take my summon anywhere anyway, it's not like he needs to be tall to reach even the highest places. [BUT her glyphs could do that to anyone, so... there's that.]

[bite_the_hand]

I'm 15 meters tall in my Titan form. [Oh, so this must be the person Jean mentioned. ...Erens' still not going to respond to the rest of her comment though, mostly because he doesn't know what she's actually talking about.]

[changeitall]

... I guess I can see why the more common term for them is giants.

Apparently, according to Jean, I'm as tall as your captain back in Titan Hell whenever I'm wearing heels [that's like 99% of her time here] and I reach somewhere below my summon's knee.

[So it's like the size of a small Titan??? Umm she doesn't have network skills to show what they are talking about... So instead Eren gets a live view in Liminal close enough for him to see what they are talking about when there's suddenly a white knight in shining armor standing without his sword on a what looks like a hologram of a snowflake.]

Arma Gigas without his sword. And the thing under it is my semblance, we call them glyphs.

[bite_the_hand]

Definitely shorter than my Titan form then. Jean's as tall as a horse now and he still doesn't make it halfway to my Titan's knees.

[Then she summons a visual reference and... Well, that's still way too many strange keywords for him to make sense of, but it is enough for him to give her a more specific answer to the original question.]

Oh, that thing? It's as big as some Titans, but still a lot smaller than me.

[rustyhonesty]

I guess controlling him has something to do with your Aura and takes more energy than the glyphs? In that case glyphs would be a better way to go anyway.

[changeitall]

Yes and yes of course they are but consider this as... Stamina practice somewhere where I'm not fighting a sudden Grimm army alone nor using giant amounts of Dust to make everything even more tiring.

[rustyhonesty]

Yeah, that's a good way to test your limits in a different environment. And he's, he's taller than me, so still works for decorating down there.

[bite_the_hand]

...Who's what?

[Guess who hasn't really talked to Weiss yet and has no idea what an Arma Gigas is?]

[rustyhonesty]

A close friend. She was here for my first three Jaunts and returned just before Elsewhere.

[bite_the_hand]

[Eren's response is a bit delayed. He's too busy laughing at Weiss calling Jean an alicorn. Laughter that sounds a bit strange coming from a Titan. Still, he gets control of himself after a moment.]

So she disappeared around the time I got here, right? I guess it makes sense that I didn't meet her back then.

[canbebrave]

Be careful you don't slip! [Look, she's a worrier, and giants and ice sound like a bad time.]

[bite_the_hand]

[Thankfully Eren's already come to the same conclusion about ice skating giants.]

Don't worry, I'm not planning to walk on the ice anywhere. Either I'd end up in those dumb skates or I'd melt through the ice, and neither of those is a good option.

[canbebrave]

No, neither of those things, thank you.

[modernliterature]

Ja, okay.

Nobody had a ladder?

[thornsofmalkav]

Eren getting big and naked for ball decoration is kind of a winter dance tradition around here.

this is the real tag

[modernliterature]

At least we can't see his Schwanzstucker.

This is too

[rustyhonesty]

Fortunately all titans lack genitals. Otherwise I'd lost my sex drive a long time ago.

[changeitall]

How about abilities to fly or getting anywhere with some kind of skills including his without ladders...? Because those seem like a bad idea right now when there's all of the sudden ice skating too. [Guess whose first thought was someone crashing to ladders somehow?]

[modernliterature]

People skate around big guys and ladders. But whatever works, I'm not going to argue.

[changeitall]

Yeah, people do that... Guess we'll just have everything here, ladders and skaters and Titan and whatever else. I'm not here to argue.

[duelingbanjou]

... Why the fuck can you do that?

[bite_the_hand]

[There's the mental equivalent of a shrug.]

It's a power my old man passed down to me. I don't know why he was a Titan Shifter though.

[duelingbanjou]

So it's some wierd kind of DNA thing. ... I can get that. Don't know why the guy who gave me some shit was the way he was, either.

[bite_the_hand]

I guess? I don't have a good idea of how DNA works. It's not something we knew about in the world I'm from. ...Sounds like you've been forced into some messed up stuff too.
