Finally started the Applejack social link. Now we just need to start the Rarity social link before her birthday.
Exams suck, but they're a necessity to life sadly.
I'm getting a Yukiko vibe from Octavia.
Well, looks like we have another addition. Wonder whose birthday is next on the 'hit list.'
Oh boy, time to grind the academics, it seems... at what rank is Flash currently anyway?
Oh goody, Octavia is now starting to see things from another angle. That's neat.
And the Strenght Social Link has initiated. Only three more S.Links to complete the "Old Arcanum" (the ones before XIII. Death)

From my case notes: 9/2 - The rumors started getting nasty at school a year ago, which is when Sunset went from being a loner to a bully
I still think she's a red herring though.
5539662
My theory is that whatever's causing the current problems at CHS is also responsible for her going from 'not nice' to 'bully'. I doubt she's actually responsible for any of the Zodiac stuff given what we know so far.
I dont know why but a had a feeling that Fluttershy is evil.........
No plan survives contact with the enemy, and when you're trying to plan a life, the enemy is life itself. To put it bluntly, shit happens, and no one can keep it from happening. And sometimes, the one whose life is being planned may find that she has other ideas...
As for Applejack, well, she may have bad news, but it's good to see her opening up with it. Strength is about control, both of the self and of the world. Right now, the biggest thing in Applejack's life is something she has no control over. It will be interesting to see how she comes to grips with it.
Of course, Flash has more pressing concerns. Like exams. Best crack those books, Sentry.

Rarity is next. It's been stated in the story. Capricorn will be her assailant.
After that, I'm thinking Aquarius will try to get Cadance again. I'm not sure how Pisces will be dealt with...
Aries and Taurus come later. Those two should be easy enough to guess the targets.
I'm at a bit of loss when it comes to the last three Zodiac Shadows (Gemini, Cancer, and Leo), but those are a long way away. I will say that I'm fairly certain that Shining is a Cancer, but I'm not sure if he'll be a target.
5539799
Hilariously, looking at the horoscope for Pieces, it might be Sunset Shimmer, of all people. And Trixie might be a Gemini.
5539799 Ah yes, I forgot. Pardon me whilst I facehoof myself. There I feel better. The good news is that since Rarity lives in Canterlot, it won't be such a traveling inconvenience. Although I just had a thought: If Rarity can get pulled into Zodiac from her home, could it happen to Applejack or Fluttershy if they go home for their birthdays or is Zodiac predominantly for Canterlot?
5539822
I had the same thought regarding Pisces, I just wasn't too sure about it.
5539840
Well, none of the others went home for their birthdays...
5539646 That, unfortunately, would be Rairty.
5539840 ...That is a good question.
Unfortunately, I doubt MythrilMoth will be telling us anything like that anytime soon.
5539862 Doesn't mean they can't though, especially since AJ live close enough to be driven by truck there and back. As for Fluttershy, she's still up in the air. (Besides, with Winter Break coming up, Rarity might decide to spend part of her birthday at the dorm and the rest of it with her family, so it's not entirely out of the question that Rarity will get dragged in while with her family especially since she lives in Canterlot.)
5539913
Good points, but I think it will depend on whether or not any of their birthdays fall on a weekend (Or in Rarity's case if it happens during winter break or just after school resumes)... Still, we've got a bit of a wait before that will happen.
Huh, guess I was wrong about the emotional "tenor" of Octavia's S link. Never the less, I hope Flash is able to help her get over her Hang-Ups about going it unplanned.(Ducks rotten tomato)
Glad to see Applejack is opening up. Just remember AJ, "Only with strength can one endure suffering and torment". Your friends are here to help you through this.
5540016
It's already been said in story that her birthday is on January 2, and she'll still be away on winter break then.
5540125
Thank you. I couldn't quite remember the date...
I find it interesting that exams are blue text. I wonder if something more than academic rankings are going to come up.
Applejack's arcana is strength! Can you say "called it"!? Because I sure can. I knew she would get strength.
5540224 Anything that would be an important thing for the player to keep in mind is in blue text, to mirror how key events and topics of interest appear in different-colored text in the Persona games. If you've played Persona, you'll know that exam week means all the school-based Social Links will vanish for an entire week, and the following week will have several days in succession eaten right off the calendar by exams.
In this case, that's why the exam reminder is bluetexted.
5540243
I haven't, actually. Thanks for the explanation.
So, timeskips ahoy that week?
5540265 Yep Well, in the games, Exam Week basically amounts to four days of testing your memory on questions teachers have asked in class, with two questions per calendar day, and no other events during that period. In this case, it's just flat out going to be three skipped calendar days with the fourth day going straight to Evening.

I dunno, it would be entertaining to see if Flash's "pen seems to be moving by itself".
As for the birthdays at home thing, we know Rarity will have hers at home, but given how family oriented she is, I would be AJ does too. Though she's already proven fairly easy to get an invite over from, so I don't think that will be a huge problem.
The next major battle may not be until Jan 2, but Flash and the team better not slack off. After Finals is the perfect time to do some training in Zodiac! Cause I get the feeling that after finals some of them will no longer feel that life and death battles are so bad.
5540830
Accounted for. AJ's birthday falls on a Friday when school is in session. Given the travel time to Sweet Apple Acres, her family's having her birthday PARTY on Saturday...so the birthday party and the actual Zodiac event will not intersect. Not directly, anyway. (Pinkie's gonna miss the party though...tennis. )
5541718
I'm going to be honest. I don't think any other fic I have read has ever made me feel as sorry for Pinkie as this one often does.
WHY MUST YOU PULL AT MY HEARTSTRINGS?!
Only a few left:
II. THE PRIESTESS
III: THE EMPRESS
XIII: DEATH
XIV: TEMPERANCE
This is where having a story where you only know what the main character knows really ramps up the tension. For all I know, she's thinking about how much she wants to get out of her seat and start stabbing bitches. Or she could be working out a heartwarming conversation with Rainbow Dash in her head.
I like this callback. It's a subtle insertion of humor in an otherwise dead straight chapter.
Double texts!
Oooof... Reminds me when my mom got cancer... she went suddenly, too...
5717449 CALLING IT! sunset is death.
four down, two to go.
Do you know what the beauty of this story is? They’ve kept us, for the longest time, believing that Sunset was the one sending the Zodiac shadows, but now, they’ve planted seeds of doubt in our minds, making us question if we’ve actually got it right or not
