So, Zodiac in two days. Also, interesting placement on test scores. Also, interesting info on the birthdays.
Mild fuck-up:
This paragraph appears twice in the chapter, in the morning and afternoon timeblocks. Both here and on LTE.
Sonata is a Pisces? Huh, figures.
There's another resident of Applewood that they are forgeting about though, they should find out if Applebloom is a Gemini.
Hmm, curiouser and curiouser.
5669875 Wait a minute, you don't actually think that Apple Bloom'll be a target, do you?
5669893
There are people who would need no reason, that (sorry for the overused quote) only want to watch the world burn. But yes, I wouldn't leave anyone unaccounted for.
5669875 It's not an error. It's intentional.
5669893 She's staying at the dorm(the only unifying qualities between the named victims) and we have no idea what her birthday is.
Pretty sure you don't have much choice.
Nice work! Guess having the brainiac as a GF really helps!
I'm worried for her. I know it's probably just paranoia, but still...
It's been a while,
DiscordJuan.Because that's not ominous at all.
Smart move. Keep every option open.
Interesting, but until we have more data, irrelevant.
Two of which managed to kill their victims. I must admit, despite the fact Mr. Moth has indicated they have no real names or importance, they are still fascinating, if only because their deaths mean something. The implication is that the five targets were not part of Applewood, so why were they assaulted? Were the Hunters only recently yoked to someone's will and before they just killed at their leisure, or was someone testing them(the ambiguity of that last subject was intentional)?
So I was right about Sunset Shimmer being a Leo.
Juan's statement about not everyone being who or what they seem really goes with one of my theories about what happened to the Leo shadow.
I bet Apple Bloom will be targeted. She's going to have a bigger role in this, I can tell.
5669905
Ah, now I see what you mean
Well, this is interesting. Not much to go on, but new data is always helpful. Especially the information coming from Juan, who is reliably unreliable, or possibly the other way around. We'll see what comes of this.
5669989
Yeah, this fits with some of our theories.
Also, I like that Jaun shows up every time I mention that I hope we see him soon, cause we need more info. It's like he knows.
No Gemini, huh?
Looking at the second chapter horoscopes, it certainly is Trixie I mean tricky. I wonder who it could be.
I actually drew up a chart yesterday of who the rest could be, but Aries, Pisces, and Leo were stumping me. Taurus and Cancer were rather obvious.
Wonder who the person of the opposite sex is that hurt Fluttershy.
Woah that's a LOT of new information that you give us there Mr.Moth.
Well for now they fit my theory about Sunset Shimmer
5669875 I think you are right about the fact that Applebloom could be a potential target, she has to have a bigger role (maybe an unsuspected one )
5670511 While Athena (in both her forms) is still my personal favorite, Bastet is now tied for my second favorite with Euphy. Such elegance and sexiness...
5669619
Sorry about the incredibly vague spoiler, it's tagged.
And chill about the Zecora comment. There are a ton of authors that don't write Zecora because they can't rhyme, myself included (or I would be if I actually got off my lazy ass and wrote something,) and it's usually the subject of much humor as well as an acceptable reason not to. I've always enjoyed the characters of the Velvet Room and nowhere except in the actual games do they seem to get any screen time, which always annoys me, so excuse me if I display that annoyance through humor.
5670965 You have an interesting way of apologizing for an offensive comment.
5670965 You came out of nowhere to tell Moth that "[he] can't rhyme worth a damn". I'll grant that you very likely meant it as "I've known other writers who are hesitant to write Zecora because they lack the skill, or confidence, to rhyme well, so since I don't know your work, maybe you feel the same way?" But the way you originally put it, AND the trolling icon, are VERY easily misread as a deliberate judgment and provocation (that's how I read it, myself). Yes, it's semantics, but when all we have to go on to convey tone and intent is plain text --and emoticons that can represent a jab as well as a wink-- we have to be careful we're actually saying what we mean to say. Instead of telling Moth to chill,which makes things worse, it's MUCH easier and friendlier to say, "Sorry, that's not what I meant." For all you know, Moth himself would have accepted the apology and apologized for his own response.
And BTW: that spoiler was anything but vague.
5670965
Oh yeah, describing a scene of a game with heavy implications in relation to the rest of the story is a pretty vague spoiler. You are really considerate.
5670412 Maybe Flash did something inadvertently. I remember a chapter where Fluttershy was frowning at Flash one time. Maybe he hurt her feelings somehow and doesn't realize it, or maybe she liked Flash too, but resents that he looked right at Twilight and didn't even think about her.
Everyone's discussing stuff and I'm just lamenting the fact that I share a Zodiac Sign with an antagonist.
5668979 If by "Double Persona abilities" you mean Fusion Raids/Fusion Skills/Tag Team Attacks like in Persona 2/3/4G, we've already had those :) Chiron and Athena have the elemental/Phys attack Cavalry Charge, and Euphrosyne and Undine have the *ahem* healing spell Sexy Refreshment, which are kind of like the middle point between the Raids of P2 and the Spells of P3.
5671560
I share with AJ.
5671560 5671654
I share with Pinkie
I mean, if it wasn't obvious enough
5671560 Leo Fist Bump?
5671707 I've got you trumped: I gave Pinkie Pie the same birthday as me.
5671458
It would be interesting if true. Now, as an intellectual exercise, imagine if Flash had hooked up with Shy. That would have had an interesting effect on things. Especially if Shy really is Eris. Which I agree is the case.
5671839
Wait, can you give me a list of every characters' birthdays?
Lol sonata is a Pisces
It's funny bc I'm just as awkward as sonata
Btw today is the celebration of the moment I popped out of my mother
Is it wrong that I kinda want sonata to get a persona? i feel that it would kind of fit with her, but hey what do I know
5671458
I think MOST of the girls have a thing for Flash at this point (He should have gone with Pinkie). But Shy did glare at the two of them for one of their PDAs in the dorm awhile back.
5671654
I share with AJ too. Unless you use the modernized versions of the Zodiac (which this fic doesn't), in which case I share mine with Fluttershy.
5672343
what "modernized zodiac"?
5672346
There is a concept that instead of using the traditional dates for the signs, you should go by the dates those signs are present in the night sky in modern times, which has shifted a bit over the thousands of years that people have used Astrology. http://dionysia.org/astrology/sun-signs.html is the first link about it I can find immediately. I'll see if I can find a more detailed one though, as I have seen better cases for the difference.
5672390
oh. okay. I get it. thanks, older person!
for some reason Juan the janitor in the LTE version looke like a really grumpy discord
*THUNK!
*That is the sound of multiple face hoofs when people read this comment
5672390 Huh, I normally considered myself a Libra, but according to Modern Astrology, I'd be a Virgo. I read less then a paragraph before deciding I am NOT a Virgo
5672050 Yes, I can. But will I? No. You'll just have to wait.
5672256 Happy...umm...popping-out day?
5672454 Yyyyeeeeeah....this is something pretty much everyone figured out LONG before we had profile art up.
5672050
Known birthdays:
Flash(26th August), Twilight(24th September), Pinkie(28th October), Rainbow(21st November),
Rarity(2nd January), Cadance(14th February), Shining Armor(4th July)
Exact birthday not known but Zodiac sign revealed:
Sonata(Pisces, 19 Feb - 20 Mar), Fluttershy(Aries, 21 Mar - 19 Apr), AJ(Taurus, 20 Apr - 20 May),
Sunset Shimmer (Leo, 23 Jul - 22 Aug)
For everyone else, we'll just have to wait.
5672907 for some reason I thought Juan was a legit character that kind of knew what was going on
5673265 A "legit character"? That's an odd turn of phrase. What would make him an illegitimate character, in your view?
(I think you meant ORIGINAL character...)
OK, so, I have read this story up to this point and I have to say I enjoy the progression and character development. We get to see how they are. The thing with Pinkie broke my heart but at least now she's with people who care about her. I wonder how this will bite them back. I wonder about what happens to Suri later. I know she had to resign, but she was probably pissed that she lost. She felt she could've won, but she lost to Coco. Humiliation plus anger. That won't be good in the future. I wonder who Eris is. If it's Sunset Shimmer, it'll be way too obvious.
Now, how to document Zodiac? Will it even work? Well, we will just have to find out.
5673287
Unless Sunset can change her bust size at will, she's not Eris.
5673330
Or maybe she stuffed her bra. Eris did come up with an elaborate disguise. Maybe that's part of it.
Or Sunset is just a red herring.
Just had a thought. I'm uncertain if this was brought up before (also woefully unfamiliar with the 'Persona' series), but I thought I'd ask anyway: Why don't Flash and the 'team' go into Zodiac in front of the others? I mean since only people with Personas and those being attacked get drawn in to Zodiac, others wouldn't be able to see what's happening and simply vanish. Seeing that happen, the others have to believe them then, wouldn't they?
Also, if time doesn't (normally) pass in Zodiac, then are the texts that the gang are seeing past texts being saved somehow to be floated in front of them when they go in or are they being done in some kind of 'real-time' (which shouldn't exist at all?)
5673391
That's been suggested already, and ZIT addresses the posibility of just doing that. However, they (and by logic MM) decided that they'd need even more evidence before they can drop the bomb on the dorm.
As for how the "other world" system works in the other games, it's actually quite different from what happens here. In P3, every night at midnight, an event called the Dark Hour occurs, where only certain people remain concious while everybody else transmogrifies into a coffin; What the people with "the potential" do during the Dark Hour is entirely up to them (Sleep the night through/Grind). While in P4, and as far as I know, there's a World Inside the TV, where people can fall in and die if they don't escape in time; At first, only the protagonist has the power to enter at will and bring others with him, until the rest of the party awakes their Persona and gain the same power to enter on their own, though they agree to don't go alone.
5673414 The texts they see in Zodiac are indeed hours, weeks, or even MONTHS of texts floating around in Canterbook's servers. For example, back before Twilight awakened her Persona, she was worried that Flash was up to something with Cadance, and the morning they went to the roller rink to enter Zodiac, Twilight was texting Pinkie after they left the dorm. When Flash entered Zodiac, he saw Twilight's text from a matter of minutes earlier.
5673268 thats what I meant
*note to self: don't comment right after waking up
Juan is definitely more then he say he is. Could it be he has seen other worlds.
Maybe Juan is Philemon?
