Omg, I can't believe it's already Dash's birthday.
You're setting Fluttershy up to be the antag, so of course I've put her out of the bets. It's never this obvious.
... I can't get the Persona 4 Golden battle theme out of my head for a battle theme when Dash is participating. Even though vs Saggitarius it would need some kind of boss music. The high energy of it really seems like down her alley.
Well, looks like Rarity and Applejack are now aware of the death horoscope. I wonder how they'll react to seeing the same thing when their birthdays roll around...
Damn it... Fluttershy is gone for the week... this will make it harder to look into whether or not she's Eris.
5508994 Until I see evidence of the contrary, she's still a suspect. However, I have one other person now added to the suspect list. Until I get more evidence I'll keep it to myself...
I'm scared to find out who Eris is...
Goddammit, I can't help but hate this Eris with a passion. Though I have to give it to her, separating Flash from the rest was a clever move, too bad of her it didn't work.
And both Sunset and Fluttershy are now just red herrings to me. Both of them can be a pair of bes, but I won't try to guess who is the antagonist.
5509121
Blast and I was so sure we were on to something. Eris seems to have something super personal against the people in the dorm though. I really wonder who it could be.
I am super curious as to what the hell is up with Shy though.
Also, props to Flash to managing to turn his ability to be a total perv into a combat option. That might have been on the most amusing things to happen in the story thus far.
5509080
Oh, who is the other person? I'm partially willing to remove Shy from my list, cause she made a call after Flash destroyed Eris's phone (though I guess she could have more than one).
5509159 Since I sort of see you as a part of my team, I'll PM you the name of the person. I want to keep this a secret for now.
I am beginning to suspect that Eris isn't the one in charge of summoning Zodiac, she's nothing more than someone Sunset has coerced into being the fall woman in case someone actually dies in Zodiac, so what happens in Zodiac can't be traced to her.
Interesting. We knew from the start that you need the Zodiac app on your phone to access it, but the fact that destroying the phone ejects you from it is a new wrinkle.
And now time is passing. Could that be related too? Did Eris' early exit force the regular flow of time onto Zodiac? The party really needs to talk about the fight with Eris and what it implies about how Zodiac works.
5508994 5509080 Flutters might be involved, but I doubt it's willingly. That's probably one reason she seems ticked all the time.
With Fluttershy being gone, it becomes impossible to know if she's Eris or not. That call from her family was either suspiciously convenient, or prime red herring. (This is why I'm not really straining to figure out who it is. There's lots of very important bits of data that Flash, and thus we, simply don't know.) That said, one possibility that occurred to me is
Coco Pommel. Admittedly, this is mostly since she would seem to be a fit in terms of physical capability. Scratch that. Rereading Coco's introduction, she's very short, so it can't be her.And it was nice to see Flash hand Eris a defeat. I wonder how long it's going to be before we hear from her again.
5509469
Honestly, that's how I feel about Sunset too. I doubt that either she or Shy could be the Big Bad, if either of them are even villains in the first place.
I think we haven't actually seen the force behind Zodiac yet.
Or the force behind Zodiac is actually the collective unconscious desires of the school as a whole.
So, um, just to get our minds off of all the WMG going on, what's Rainbow Dash's Persona's name?
5509641
I'm betting on Nike, the greek personification of victory.
Just a quick note, the persona Flash keeps facing off against is Eris, who is the Greek Goddess of Chaos, Strife and Discord...
I don't care what you say, Flash just used Kanji's persona and whatever Rainbow's persona is is now tied for my favorite persona after Thanatos.
5509744 i see what your saying
5509641 This is a good question. We'll probably find out tomorrow, when ZIT convenes with its new member. Honestly, I hope Flash gives a through description of his fight with Eris, and Eris' physique. Then they can assemble a list of girls (up until now, it could have been a somewhat effeminate boy; this is now quite obviously not the case) with the right body type, and possibly skills, to be Eris. Then they can try to figure out who might have a grudge against them.
Also, has Flash ever gotten a good look at Fluttershy's body, or has it always been covered with a tent-like dress or sweater or something? (I forget.) If he's never gotten a good look, it's possible for her to have a muscular, athletic body and him to be none the wiser. I expect that if Fluttersy does, one of the dorm members will mention it during the meeting.
Finally, if Fluttershy does have the right build, hopefully someone will bring her up as a suspect, even if that idea is shot down only moments later.
Ultimate Hermit Persona Arahabaki is used for the first time against "the culprit" and all he uses is the Immunity Buffer/Repel Physical passive just to block out any physical attacks. I'm a tad disappointed that Arahabaki didn't use Vicious Strike or Tousatsujin. But then again, Arahabaki is mostly shaped as a defence persona against physicals in Persona 4 and in Persona Q, physicals and Ice for some reason, despite being weak to ice in P4.
Other than that, I really love how you use 2 personas together to form a special combination skill. "Rainbow coloured Undine", I have never thought of that before and I've got that mental image stuck in my head now. Keep up the good work!
5509641 Nike.
5509860 Ah, gracias, muchacho.
Flash is a pretty aggressive protagonist. This has gotten me thinking about previous Persona games. Minato is pretty calm, and almost cold. Yu is friendly, but really only aggressive in relation to Nanako being kidnapped. So, is it just me, or is Flash maybe more of a Tatsuya?
If so, a big part of P2 was the idea of rumors becoming true...And this school certainly has an....active rumor mill of late.
Wouldn't destroying the phone destroy the memories of personas and zodiac? Flash even said,
"I don't actually have to use my Persona," I explain. "As long as it resides in my mind..."
So logically it should destroy the mind, or at least the memories of personas, right???

Personally, I think of the phone app are more of a tool to use the Personas, like the Evokers in P3. The power is still part of the user, the app just allows them to harness it more easily.
5510029 No? Because it's just a tool to draw out the Persona...
5510287 There's actually a big problem with Fluttershy being Eris. The comments already made note of it.
5509744
Thank you.
At last, somebody who made the connection besides me.
I think I have an idea who Eris is... Anyone PM me to share their opinions?
5509860 lol...Makes sense that Rainbow's persona is the Greek goddess of victory.
Well now the Dorm knows about the death message, and Rarity is bound to check it on her birthday, so the pattern will probably be made public by then.
My theory on Sunset is that she is some kind of Oracle that is intentionally driving people away to preserve her secret. She's doing bad stuff for good reasons. Maybe she's trying to warn the victims by delivering the death message through the horoscope app. Speaking of which, how many people know she manages the App? I could see Rarity flipping out at her for posting such a mean spirited Horoscope.
What I'm wondering is who the two other victims were. It's weird how they're neither named or mentioned. It sounds like the kind of thing that would make the papers. In fact, all Flash knows about those murders is what Cadance told him. Maybe he shouldn't take what she says at face value. If there were murders, what were their connections to Applewood Dorm.
Rainbow's gifts were kind of lame considering everyone was just paid $200, although it's probably good that Flash got a reasonably priced gift for once. If not, everyone might expect something extravagant.
It's TOO obvious that Fluttershy is the killer, so I don't think she is. She might be Eris, but I doubt she's the one behind Zodiac.
As for Zodiac, I think the time difference is based on how separated it is from the real world. As the two steadily mere together, their time will line up.
Oh modern world, where whe have dismissed waiting, when we're used to have next episode just on click away... we're going to have to wait at least three months at leat for the final...the suspence is killing me!
Oh, just to say it, with Eris being the goddess of chaos and Discord probably lurking somewhere and Flutters behaving strange, there is at least one fic and of cource smilingdogz universe at Deviantart where Flutters is Discords daughter. That might be so, and it would b epic, BUT it would also suck like a vacuum cleaner. If I'm right, this is where I said it, if I'm wrong... well, no one 's dead anyway.
I just reread this chapter, and something occured to me: Even after Flash cracked Eris' phone and she vanished from Zodiac, did her phone disappear with her? If it didn't vanish, then Flash just passed up a prime oppurtunity to attempt to recover any evidence from her phone, unless it was too damaged to bother with anyway. After all, he was able to retrieve her staff...
Where the hell was I when this party was happening? I MISSED ALL THE FOOD DAMMIT!!
5510360 Just as a reminder: Every comment speculating on who is and who isn't doing what is merely that: speculation. Meaning any one theory is as valid as any other unless and until I (or Zef) step in and flat out refute it.
5511291 His girlfriend was fighting Sagittarius. He kind of had more important things to worry about.
Suspicious. I still don't think her Ophiuchus, but still suspicious.
Huh, I think this is the first time someone's mentioned it to someone who does't already know or is an authority figure.
Interesting. I wonder, if it's possible to create artificial Persona Users, could it be possible to create Mass-Production Personas?
You named yourself after your Persona? Very original. Okay, we don't know if you are Ophiuchus, so Eris it is!
Flash deserves a metal for how he used his Hermit, and he was clever in defeating her, as ... Unorthodox as his methods were.
We missed it?!
: " I'm going to need therapy once this Zodiac thing is over, aren't I?"(In all seriousness, yes, I imagine they might)
Interesting. Does that mean Eris controls the time stop?
5511861 Actually, Eris is also female discord. I have no idea if you knew that or not.
Nike? I'll be honest, I was kinda thinking Hermes when I saw the picture.
OK, Now i'm thinking it's discord, since eris is the rule 63 discord.
Here's a silly way for Flash to figure out who Eris was: Grope all the girls in CHS to see if what he feels is the same as Eris. Though granted there are factors of different sizes, types of bra being worn, thickness of shirts and a little more... Oh well, would have been hilarious if that was actually plausible without expulsion or story breaking.
I thought it was clever separating Flash from the others and having him fight Eris first. Nothing like a birthday with your friends after a nice tennis game and fighting for your life.
The YouTube link for when Rainbow summons her Persona on the LTE Version leads to an "unavaible video."
6655041 question where is this stuff coming form I can't find any of that in the chapter?
I'm a bit surprised that no one seemed to have noticed it yet, and I feel bad for pointing this out 2+ years later, but November 21st still counts as Scorpio... Sagittarius starts November 23rd...
Seeing Dashie's Persona. I had to post this.

Oh that's right! I'd just chalk it up to the goon squad rounding up and not wanting to bother waiting. Especially since whoever all's doing this stuff effects when, who, where, and how. The why is because the persons a massive dingle berry with no life.
funny how Rainbow dash is the only one to have a normal reaction to their horoscope
Aw, the old breast grab move, nicely done Flash.
