❄ it's quiet
and the snow's beautiful tonight → a winter open meme

snowfall;

stage i; none, streets are already blanketed in white.
stage ii; very light and intermittent.
stage iii; light - moderate. lasts longer periods.
stage iv; continuous, heavy snowfall.
stage v; the hardest of cores - blizzards, snowstorms, you name it.

scenarios;

① fuck the police, this is the best time for a walk. hope you've got a nice thick coat on.

② stranded in the buttcrack of nowheresville? weren't you watching the time? now you've gone and missed that last bus out of there. or maybe you're lost, somehow. what do?

③ literally chilling, in this weather, is quite easy to do. sitting around relaxing in it is a wee more difficult, but sometimes much more enjoyable, especially if shelter can be found. the snow is beautiful to watch, after all.

④ the weather's not going to stop you. your snow fort's packed full of ammo and ready to go. those aren't snow angels over there; they mark where the poor souls you've downed have fallen. be careful with that snowman's head!!

⑤ you're about fifty miles from civilization but there's a roof over your head, so never mind the chilly draught, right? right. you mightn't be the only one lucky enough to stumble upon this little shelter, though. remember to share the blanket.

⑥ everyone stuck outside should be jelly. you've got a fireplace and hot cocoa and damn if it isn't awesome. a heater's not quite so romantic, but it'd do. there'd better be a backup generator in case the power trips.

⑦ mix and match, or make up your own ‧:❉:‧

[The Grey Wardens still had business to attend to when a Blight wasn't looming, much as that might take the average Fereldon citizen by surprise.

Giles' business had brought him here, to Kirkwell. It wasn't that he'd actually intended to seek Marian out - she wasn't his business. But Bethany was, and he hadn't felt right not at least checking in.

One thing had led to another which had led to them walking together in the snow, on the way to meet with Giles' contact. It had only been sensible - he was new to Kirkwell, after all, having been a native of Redcliffe before joining the Wardens.

Of course, Kirkwell at night wasn't the safest place. Not for a Grey Warden, and certainly not for Hawke.]
