Titus and Violet Durn’s Relationship
Development of the relationship
1. Titus and Violet meet on the moon in the Ricochet lounge
2. Titus is attracted by V’s wool dress, and the juice creating a bubble on her tongue.
3. After being hacked T and V spend time in hospital together.
• Violet shows Titus the terrarium with the plant growing towards the air. She is revealing something of the ‘natural’ world to him. Titus sees beauty.
• Violet tells Titus ‘You’re the only one of them that uses metaphor.’ She may recognise that Titus is ‘different’ and that she will be able to share her understanding of the world with him.
4. In America (Utopia) Violet and Titus’s relationship develops as
• Violet and Titus learn more about each other and their backgrounds. (late feed, education, writing with a pen, reading) Titus finds all of this different and therefore attractive.
• Violet shows Titus how to resist the feed by confusing it. (becoming ‘invisible) Titus finds this attractive, thinking it is funny. At the end of the shopping spree they ‘make out’ and Titus watches Violet leave.
5. Tension builds
• Titus begins to realise that Violet is smart and he is not.
• They disagree about whether America is a democracy. Titus admits that he hates it when Violet gets anti – the system – no fun anymore.
• Titus visits Violet’s house and meets her ‘strange’ father. Violet talks about ‘delayed gratification.’ (Titus does not agree)
• Titus and Violet fight and he says, ‘Sometimes it feels like you’re watching us, not being us.’ (she doesn’t fit with his friends.- she talks ‘weird’- big words)
6. Crisis –
• Violet has a ‘breakdown’ at a party. She criticises Quendy’s lesions and calls Titus and his friends ‘monsters’ and says that they ‘are feed.’ (They are feed for the corporations).
• ‘The party is over’. (the relationship is over, at least in Tutus’ mind)
7. Breakup (during Slumberland)
• Violet physically deteriorates – limbs stop working
•
