❄️ Finding Your Winter Running Motivation ❄️

Hey there, fellow runners! As winter's chill settles in, it's easy to feel the temptation to hibernate rather than lace up those running shoes. But I'm here to tell you that with the right mindset and a dash of motivation, winter running can be an exhilarating adventure. Here's how to keep that running fire burning even when it's cold outside:

1. Embrace the Frosty Beauty: Winter landscapes have a unique charm. The glistening snow, frost-kissed trees, and serene stillness of the outdoors are a canvas waiting to be explored.

2. Set Clear Goals: Whether it's conquering a specific distance, improving your pace, or just staying consistent, setting clear running goals will give you a sense of purpose.

3. Dress Smart: Invest in quality cold-weather running gear. Dressing in layers, wearing moisture-wicking fabrics, and donning warm accessories will keep you cozy throughout your run.

4. Buddy Up: Find a running buddy who shares your winter goals. The company can make those chilly runs more enjoyable and hold you accountable.

5. Mix It Up: Don't be afraid to try new routes or running styles. Trail running, interval training, or even a snowy obstacle course can inject excitement into your winter runs.

6. Reward Yourself: Treat yourself after a run with a warm drink, a cozy blanket, or a hot bath. Knowing there's a reward waiting can be a powerful motivator.

7. Visualize Success: Before you head out, visualize a successful run. See yourself conquering the cold and achieving your goals. Visualization can be a potent motivator.

8. Embrace Hygge: Incorporate elements of hygge into your post-run routine. Light some candles, sip on herbal tea, and snuggle up with a good book or a favorite show.

9. Track Your Progress: Keep a running journal or use a tracking app to monitor your progress. Seeing your accomplishments on paper can be incredibly motivating.

10. Join a Winter Challenge: Many running communities offer winter challenges that can add a competitive edge and keep your motivation high.

Remember, every step you take in the cold is a victory, a testament to your dedication and determination. So, bundle up, step outside, and let the crisp air invigorate your spirit. Winter running isn't just about the miles; it's about the memories, the sense of accomplishment, and the indomitable spirit that keeps you moving forward.

Stay warm, stay motivated, and let the beauty of winter be your running muse! ❄️🏃‍♀️✨

thinking about how the extra area added on to a pacifist run of undertale, the true lab, is about alphys's past mistakes. how it ends with the story reaffirming that, despite the pain she's caused, the thing that matters is that she has now made the choice to do the right thing. she's still worthy of her friends' love.

thinking about how undertale doesn't expect the player to get a pacifist ending for the first time. how it's more likely than not that the player will kill toriel the first time they battle her, how lots of players don't initially figure out how to end undyne's fight without killing her, etc. what it expects — not even expects, really, but hopes — is that the player, if they care enough, will use their canonically acknowledged power over time to make up for those mistakes.

no matter how many neutral runs a player has done before committing to the pacifist run, the thing that matters to the characters, to the story, is that you've chosen, now, to do the right thing.

compared to alphys, the player honestly gets off lightly, in that you're the only one (other than flowey) who really remembers any harm you might have caused. and any direct guilting the game could have done about it is long past at this point. instead, as undertale often does, it makes its point via parallels: alphys caused harm, and she knows it. she has committed to being better. in doing so, she has unlocked for herself a better ending to her story. and she deserves it. she's forgiven.

those structural narrative parallels are all over undertale, if you know where to look. and that's one of the things that makes it so fuckin' good.

Constantine is noping this situation, you can't make hi-..ah fucking damn it

John was already paled when Kronos got revived, but seeing the eyes scalding blinding Fear of God staring into your very soul and judgment every inch power that was in that godlinng babe was enough for him to started drinking his emergency booze.

He is not dealing with Greek Gods bullshits, especially if that what he puzzling in the pieces together Then Kronos's story was becoming twisted all together. Nope, he isn't. Batman can bribe him all he wants. He is fucking leaving now!!

Fucking with THAT right there especially with the contract he still owed Kronos for, he rather suffered the complete obliteration of his soul being torn to shreds once he dies then have that god find him. He is escaping of here before She even noticed that he is Here with her ol time relic still in his pocket.

Before he can even get one step in the portal ready, he already felt his chest tightening as if his entire chest was being squeezed like a kid's teething toy.

Fucking dammit, he should've left right when Kronos was still having that psychic backlash, he knew he should've trusted his gut, fucking time Goddess and her all knowing of when and where.

The Dread Wolf Take You (Part 1)

~~Link to the complete 31 page comic here~~

"Imagine that, overlooking the god in your mids!"

May I present, my attempt at illustrating the last four pages of Tevinter Nights. 😁 (Also, the first time I'm posting art on here!)

As the whole thing was quite literally too long to post on tumblr, I uploaded the full version on a customized site made for reading webcomics (via ComicFury). Feel free to check out the link above if you like to read the rest! Also, if you're on mobile, there's a "Scroll View" option for easier navigation. :)

And, obviously, HUGE spoilers for those who haven't read Tevinter Nights!!

On a personal note though, I can't believe I actually finished it... As it had been a *very* long time since I drew (and finished) anything, let alone a 31 page comic and reading Tevinter Nights again finally sparked my motivation (and the courage to post it lol). So I want to thank Patrick Weekes for helping me overcome this massive art block and over two decades of Case Closed mangas for inspiring me how to draw an overly dramatic "exposing the imposter" moment. 😂 I tried my best to be as faithful to the book as possible and it took me forever, so... hope you like it! :D
