My Warlock, Hunter, and Titan finally got the day off. Their hitting the Last City like Gary is coming tomorrow! Look out world! It's ladies night, and all the Guardian Gals are invited XD Ok now that that is out of my system, this is just a marker practice to get me a back into the swing of friday homework. P.S. to all the other marker artists out there, I found how to make things lighter! White. fabric. markers. They go on clear and dry white! Perfect for going back over with other markers, and you can go over it carefully with a damp tissue on certain brands of marker to lighten the clarity of the white. For example, amongst other more clear things, I used it to lighten the skin tone of my titan! Happy Friday! Kat

We are told quite often that people that cut only do it for attention. I know that normally that is not the case. A friend of mine fights with her own case of depression. She often has the urge to cut. She’s given me a reason for it too. During her depression episode her mentality is a little different than normal. Many times they think the physical pain will take away the emotional pain most of them face. During depression she thinks that things are her fault. She can’t help this way of thinking. As a solution to the permanent marks left by a blade, she uses a dry erase marker. This shows what they want to do in a less harmful way. It can be washed off and they are left with only the mental change. Cutting can kill. Please pass this solution around for those like her. They need you.

I know it's not the usual type of stuff I post, but if I can help one soul then by god I will broadcast this to the heavens! So please! Share this! Make sure this wasn't posted in vain!

Can we petition bungee for a new Halloween mask and some new emotes? Happy Friday guys!

EDIT: I FINALLY FOUND A WAY TO GET AROUND MY FRAGGED UP POST BUTTON! I have to go through the actual website and not the app! It's a little more tedious, but I can finally post stuff again!

39! WHOO HOO! And yes, I find certain yellows to be... just a little too much, too over the top. Still though, hard to believe some people only see 18 or so. Then again, as with all common little bonuses, we come to take them for granted and see them as such, common. It's kinda like how I focus on disliking my eye's poor eyesight (and it's pretty bad) when I should be grateful for how I see colors so well.

25% of the people have a 4th cone and see colors as they are

Given the sudden interest for the color of dresses and vision, here some of the fascinating findings we did recently.

The color nuances we see depend on the number and distribution of cones (=color receptors) in our eye. You can check this rainbow: how many color nuances do you count?

You see less than 20 color nuances: you are a dichromats, like dogs, which means you have 2 types of cones only. You are likely to wear black, beige, and blue. 25% of the population is dichromat.

You see between 20 and 32 color nuances: you are a trichromat, you have 3 types of cones (in the purple/blue, green and red area). You enjoy different colors as you can appreciate them. 50% of the population is trichromat.

You see between 33 and 39 colors: you are a tetrachromat, like bees, and have 4 types of cones (in the purple/blue, green, red plus yellow area). You are irritated by yellow, so this color will be nowhere to be found in your wardrobe. 25% of the population is tetrachromat.

You see more than 39 color nuances: come on, you are making up things! there are only 39 different colors in the test and probably only 35 are properly translated by your computer screen anyway :)

It is highly probable that people who have an additional 4th cone do not get tricked by blue/black or white/gold dresses, no matter the background light ;)

Giveaway!

I reached 1000 followers today! For real, not a bot! No bots, I block them all (I hope). Real people following me @.@

Anyway, as a thank you, I’m gonna give away a little thing!

It’s a Crimson shell because I love you guys!

Been working on this for a long time, on and off. It’s one of only two that exist, because that’s how much felt I had. This one I’ll be mailing to the winner of this little giveaway!

Important:

Be prepared to give an address to be mailed to

Please be aware of your own allergies. It’s felt and fiberfill from a Michael’s craft store, and and stitched in a room with a cat. Who likes t get his fur on everything. I’m sorry if this means you wouldn’t be able to have this around you, that just means it’s probably not a good idea to enter the giveaway, sorry!

Likes and reblogs count! I’m not certain multiple reblogs will show up in the notes page though, and that’s where I’ll be checking.

You do not have to be following me, and I won’t check if you were! This is open to anyone!

I’ll be giving this one week, will check next weekly reset and pick the winner!

Good luck!

You do you fellow puncher. If you like being one punch man, then so be it! And if they judge you, punch them.

Titan Mom!!! A punch titan needs help!!! I've gotten to the point where my fists are the best of weapons I can use... literally... I'm finding myself killing things with melee faster than with exotic weaponry... do i just go help people out or... ;-;

I’d say always help people out! But more importantly, man if you’ve found what works best for you, or at least something that works really well, definitely use it! Use that punch!!

Storytime, if you don’t mind. I was playing with my clanmmates once and as a striker Titan I was doing my usual shoulder charge dealio, but one of the guys thought heeeee was better. SO I challenged him to a no-gun-run match, we were doing Iron Banner. Supers, shoulder charge, melee, grenade only, no guns, don’t even pull the trigger. I won it in the end, but moral is if you’re good at punching, KEEP PUNCHING.

Sometimes I do no gun-run-strikes now, for funsises! Recommend them if you wanna try. and to make things even better, pick up Insurmountable Skullfort, getcha that double melee!

Punch things! Have fun! Good luck!

Finished this a while back, I call it Heartbeat of the Sea

The Most Dysfunctional Fireteam Ever 1

The two men entered the bar to find your general titan hang out. It had a dart board, tvs for sporting events, an armwrestling table-slab made of solid iron, a clearing in the tables to “bar-fight like a civilized warrior.” Ya know, the usual. After learning their surroundings, the hunter and the warlock walked over to where the titan was already seated. The warlock simply sat down in the booth, but the hunter had a bit more flair. He eased into the seat and slid his arm on to the backrest behind her head.

(Hunter) Soooo, come here often?

She only smirked, already having planed ahead for people like him.

(Titan) Yes, I often come here to plan the public defeat and or humiliation of suitors who won’t take no for an answer and leave me the heck alone.

(Warlock) Interesting! Have you considered targeting cloaks yet? Ya know, tearing… Soiling…

Just because warlocks weren’t always the smoothest, doesn’t mean he couldn’t unnerve the competition, and get on her good side at the same time. Let’s just say he called this a strategical win.

(Warlock)…If it’s a Hunter that’s giving you grief and he has an immaculate one to start out…

He trailed off as he intentionally eyed his counterpart’s well washed hood. The only thing he could see from his side of the table.

(Titan) I have actually! On several, several occasions…

The Hunter subconsciously grabbed his cloak as he slinked away to the far side of the booth seat. Thankfully for him the topic quickly changed.

(Titan)…But that’s not what we’re here for, now is it? I asked you here to form a fireteam. I’m going to say it right now, we WILL be targeting the house of devils at its new heart.

Upon hearing the news the two men both leaned away and gave her an ‘are you crazy’ look that would put Eris M. And Cayde 6 to shame.

(Titan) Not too long ago, a small strike team of three took out its strongest Devil Walker, AND defeated its high servitor leader. Even with these two things gone a new leader is trying and succeeding to reform the house, and if he does then all that work to take back the cosmodrome would be wasted. We need the chaos formed by a leadership void to stay and make them fight against one another.

In the silence that followed, you could hear the softest thuds of the dart board across the room. Neither of the two even dared to interrupt.

(Titan) Now that you know my plan, I need to know yours… Are you in, or out?

It almost seemed as if someone put up a ward of dawn on that booth. All around them was the lively bar goers, laughing and toasting lively and vividly, but… as soon as one sat down at this table it would immediately be replaced with a stillness able to unnerve even the boldest of titans. Her newly met coworkers mulled over the information provided as they quickly and quietly placed an order. Even after the drinks arrived they sat and thought.

(Hunter) …Ya know what, it’s been forever since I had a good fight… I’ll do it!

(Warlock) All the logic is there. This needs to be done, and besides… why not! I’m in too.

The Dawn of the most Dysfunctional Fireteam Ever

It was a beautiful day. The sun was shining and the birds were letting forth their serenade. A curious hunter was walking to a lesser trafficked part of the tower to investigate a poster he saw in the main entrance. Ok, lesser trafficed was an understatement. It was almost deserted when Xur didn’t visit! He saw a titan standing next to a statue where they were supposed to meet.

(Hunter) Hey, I saw your poster. “Titan in need of a fire teaaa…” What in the world is HE doing here?

(Warlock) Hey! I’m doing the same as you, you idiotic dull-blade!

(Hunter) WHAT DID YOU JUST STAY BLANKET BACK!

(Warlock) I SAID I’M DOING THE SAME A-(Stranger) ENOUGH!

A lovely female titan walks out of the nearby bar.

(Stranger Titan) You boys can save that for the enemy. Now, as long as you two won’t break anything, come in and let’s discuss the upcoming raid.

The two smitten men stared at the retreating beauty before glancing back to the other titan by the statue. The lonely striker only shrugged his shoulders as they glared at each other and proceeded into the bar…

{Hope you enjoy my little spark of inspiration! I know it’s not the greatest, but it’s mine and I’m proud. Cya later fellow guardians!}

If all potential stress factors occur, and all indicators occur, then feel free to point them to the nearest enemy filled bar.

Evaluating Your Hunter: A Checklist

In times of great stress or shock, your Hunter may go suddenly quiet, such as in the moments before a firefight or following a disaster. It is imperative that you act quickly to assess their mental state. The following checklist can identify potentially dangerous situations and help you to evaluate your next steps.

First, identify the cause of stress. Potential factors include:

Imminent battle

Imminent death

Witnessing a second death

Dismemberment, or the witnessing thereof

Repeated Ghost revival

Defeat in the Crucible

The tearing or loss of a cloak

Losing a game of dice

Running out of alcohol

Stubbing a toe

Immediately following any of these occurrences, act quickly to gauge the severity of their psychological response to said stress. Be sure to watch for the following indicators:

Is your Hunter staring off into the middle distance?

Is your Hunter grinning wildly for no discernible reason?

Is your Hunter speaking with an entity that isn’t there?

Is your Hunter laughing maniacally?

Is your Hunter obsessively stroking the bones of an extinct creature?

Is your Hunter behaving like a normal, well-adjusted human being?

If the answer to one or more of the above questions is YES, the best course of action is to remove yourself from your Hunter’s vicinity and point them either at the nearest enemy or the nearest bar, depending on which is closest.

Never ask for chest bumps. One shoulder always finds a way forward into a charge

A Hunter’s Guide to Titans: Pluses and Minuses

PLUSES

1) Usually amused by stories about Warlocks

A fine quality in a comrade.

2) Really good battlefield distractions

Eager to punch stuff. Makes it easy to strategically retreat. Encourage this. 

3) Very easy to fool with loaded dice

Don’t believe in cheating. Delicious.

4) Willing to make and lose the same bet over and over

Impressively stubborn. I even heard some idiot thought he could outrun a Golden Gun.

5) Require little combat maintenance outside of gummy snacks

Save them for when you need them, otherwise you’ll go through a lot of snacks.

6) Good drinking buddies, bad at drinking contests

They always think they’ll win, right up until the point they pass out. Equally amusing to see people try to drag a Titan in full plate out of a crowded bar.

Surprisingly good dancers.

MINUSES

1) Overeager to sacrifice themselves for the City

No one is asking you to die, okay? Stop offering.

2) Won’t shut up about walls

Shut up about the Walls already.

3) Less fun when they learn about the loaded dice

Try to get a head start.

4) Difficult to outrun in a straight line

Related.

5) Take everything way too seriously

Also, prone to grumpiness without gummy snacks.

6) Fist bumps hurt a lot

Ghosts get sick of re-setting bones.

Had to repost it! Just too good! I can just imagine all of the worst case scenarios from this! Can you imagine this with an outgoing hunter like Cayde6!

On Earning the Favor of Hunters: Do’s and Don’ts

DO:

1) Compliment their cloak

In the wild, Hunters often bond via social grooming; well-timed flattery can encourage an otherwise antisocial hunter to engage. As they tend to perform better when confident, this is also a useful battlefield tactic.

2) Pick up the tab

Hunter social dynamics are built upon a complex system of favor-trading, posturing, and outright lies and bribery. The gesture of paying for a bar tab is a good way to ingrain yourself with the “Pack.”

TIP: lay ground rules early and be wary of semantic traps before offering, otherwise you may find yourself with empty pockets. For example, say “Your next drink is on me, if you order the same thing you just had within the next thirty seconds” vs. “Drinks are on me.”

3) Encourage healthy competition

Hunters are often motivated by the opportunity to show up Warlocks. If there is a Hunter on your fireteam, suggest low-stake wagers or other competitions to instill in your Hunter the desire to act. Otherwise, they may be reluctant to engage in group activities or patrols, and can become less inclined to socialize in the future. In extreme cases, a poorly-socialized Hunter can grow sulky and lazy. Intentionally losing on occasion will inspire your Hunter to double down on their attempts to outdo your successes.

DON’T:

1) Express outright disbelief

Asking for a story is an excellent way to ingratiate yourself with a Hunter, and most story-tellers respect healthy skepticism about their tall tales, as this gives them an opportunity for further posturing. Be wary, however, of outright disbelief. Responses are unpredictable, and range wildly between Hunters: back-slapping good humor is relatively common, but so is immediate violence and the occasional mating proposition. 

2) Offer anything for free

Favors and verbal bartering, while a necessary element of Hunter interaction, must be granted judiciously. It should be made clear that, even if you do not expect immediate repayment in kind, you do expect the favor to be returned. For example, taking on a part of a Hunter’s workload without establishing that you expect to be recompensed somehow, at some point in the future (remember to clarify terms as you deem necessary), is a good way to both lose the respect of your Hunter and encourage bad behavior. Remember: you must work hard early on to instill good habits in your Hunter.

3) Make a promise without knowing what you’re promising

On a similar note, never accept a verbal contract before you are completely certain what your Hunter is requesting of you. For example, on the subject of favors, the proper response to a Hunter asking if you will “Do [them] a favor” is not “Yes.” It is: “What did you have in mind?”

It is important to stay vigilant: even such throwaway terms as “Sure, I’ll help” can be construed as binding. Breaking a promise carries a serious stigma in Hunter society, and is a good way to find yourself ostracized or worse.

4) Insult their knives

This will end poorly.
