Fight, Action, Flee?

            February 26, 2014

"Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm." - Winston Churchill

-----

With every adventure, there are challenges. 

Sometimes, the challenges we meet happen to be foes that need persuasion to clear the path for the hero to continue upon his journey...

And at times, the wise move is for the hero to flee and not hedge his bets. Such is often my reaction when encountering these guys in the world of Mario, which is also why the characters are posed as they are. 

I wish I had better PhotoShop skills; if I did I would have added a puff of dust near Mario's feet as he fled the battle. 

Anyway, hope everyone has had a good day.
