Not a dancing thread... (Destiny)

So we've let some of the wet blankets complain about dancing. Now it's my turn to complain about my pet peeve: people running in the Tower.

Running in combat is smart and effective. Running to get to an objective in the wild makes sense. But when you're in the Tower, it's time to chill and maybe strut a little.

Last night I found a quiet spot, sat down, and people watched. Everybody was running everywhere. Nobody walked. It was a big scramble of people from vendor to vendor. I wanted to yell "Hey you kids, walk in the Tower! And wipe your feet before you come in." Everybody was in such a hurry.

So I hopped down from my seat and slow walked across the plaza. Then I started noticing something. People running by me slowed down. Some walked along with me. A group of dancers that had been ignoring the runners turned to greet me. I drew attention. I suddenly was the cool guy in the Tower. At one point I slowed down to an ultra slow walk and I was so cool that the ground started freezing around my feet. As long as I kept it slow I was the Guardian everyone else wanted to be.

Let's all set an example and show those kids how to strut. There'll be plenty of time to run when you've got a Devil Walker setting his sights on you. When you're in the Tower, play it cool.
