Omni Shea
Party-boy, soldier, chosen
The fifth child in a seventh generation military family, Omni was born was dealt a rough hand. Born with severe epilepsy, he spent the first seven years of his life in hospitals or locked in his room under constant care. Upon his eighth birthday he asked for just one present—to be outside, and he got his wish. With a constant supply of experimental pills and muscle relaxants, Omni has devoted his life to a life of joy, eager to make everyone happy, and possibly forget his own fears and sadness.
Siblings: Vita Shea, Marcus Shea, Gregorius Shea, Octavian Shea, Augustian Shea
Place of birth: Mistmount, Gumania
Occupation: Military Cadet First Class
Hobby: Partying, paper plane competitions (nationally ranked)
Mentor deity: None
Magic power: None
Eternity gem: Hopedasher"Welcome to my desert of tears."
My mom almost found my stash of lewds. I thought I was going to get a heart attack. (I appreciate the art, okay? :/ Well, maybe not only the art O:)) Seriously, though, don't parents knock anymore? Two years ago she'd always knock then ask "RRBB, are you proper?" I used to get so annoyed. Now she just barges into my room with accusations of me wasting my time with nonsense!
Anyway, the spoiler. (Let me just say before that... the Omni miniature bound use some work. I'm sorry, Luna/Prince B. But it's really, really poorly done. My butler could do better.)
So, we certainly went dark today. Epilepsy? Seven years in hospitals? That would certainly explain the partying and his clowning about. Put it that way, Omni is probably the deepest character there is. I reread Volume 3 and mare do things seem different. Omni is my new favorite character, and I hope he gets cured, or at least doesn't die. I know S.Child has killed off characters in the original series, so I hope this isn't the case in vol 7.
You girls have any thoughts?
RRBB
My mom almost found my stash of lewds.
Which ones? :P You have so many it's difficult to keep track!
Wow about Omni. We got hints about his family, and it was mentioned twice that he couldn't join the army (what kind of military academy they sent him to after Vol 6 remains a mystery :/) but that whole sickness thing... *shivers*
Also, did you notice the other depressing things?
Mentor deity: None
Magic power: None
Eternity gem: HopedasherEven the gem sounds ominous.
Update: my sis threw a horseshoe at me when she read my post. She also reminded me that you "don't have that many lewds" :P
MixaMax
@MixaMax: pfft! You enjoy tormenting her, don't you? :P Tell her I said "hi" :)
Oh, and I have ALL the lewds! More lewds than even Brush can imagine! :)
RRBB
@RRBB: Ha! As if that obvious provocation will get me to stoop to your level! (Especially with Mota looking over my shoulder...)
I've just one thing to say to you: Buck granite! Oh, and new update in a few hours.
Brush
This spoiler is giving me the feels :( Yes, I love Eric, but Omni... I always thought of him as the happy one, now I learn he's actually the saddest of them all. Such a nasty illness to have. I have a relative with that (considered to be mild) and he couldn't get in the army or fly unaccompanied because of it. I can only imagine the Tartarus Omni is going through. I just want to go and hug him.
Has anyone noticed that so far the chapters focus on the characters?
Chapter 1, Backwards Treasure (Danny)
Chapter 2, The Shatterstone (Megan)
Chapter 3, The Equestrian Convict (Molly)
Chapter 4, The Mirror Rune (Blazen)
Chapter 5, Poseidon's Faithful (Bellucio)
Chapter 6, Hooves of a Human (Karl)
Chapter 7, The Desert of Tears (Omni)That means that the entire first arc will be one huge introduction to the story. The whole Everprince plot hasn't progressed at all! We have so many different threads it'll be crazy when they all combine :)))
By the way, has anyone seen DannyFan?
PrinceEric
I haven't read tomorrow's chapter and already I'm sad :( Why do you do this to me? First Daggers, now this! It seems it's my fate to drown in my own tears... please take care of the site while I'm gone...
Seriously, I never expected such a turn if events. If anything I thought Eric to be the sick one (with all the water bottles he carries). Having it be Omni is a good choice, though, and I can totally see him developing such a personality as a result.
@PrinceEric: he's fine, just won't be online for a bit. No need to worry :)
LyraHands
Well, it seems it's my job to lighten the mood. (Also, I can't be the only one who noticed:) Omni's family has six children. Six! All male :D Can you imagine the amount of ero fics that will start gushing out?
And the streets shall flow with...questionable liquids! Bwahaha!
[edit LyraHands] You didn't just go there!
Update: Too soon? :P
Bob
@Bob: Marry me! :))) Lol!
RRBB
@RRBB: I don't know... I'll have to kick out Lyra first. I'll think about it, though. :)

@RRBB, @Bob: Okay, it was fun, but you two should stop. This is still a mostly family friendly site, okay?
LyraHands
@LyraHands: But Lyyyyyra... they were just getting to the interesting part *grumpy face*
Brush
Yeah! I'm curious to see where that was going. (As was everyone else, the hypocrites! :P)
MixaMax
Pfft! Light stuff. :)
InItForTheShipping
I'm not saying I liked the posts or anything, but... *ahem* poor Omni! So sad! He must have one final... party before he goes.

@all: I'm licking the thread so all of you get a chance to calm down!
LyraHands
I just can't!

Best typo ever! :)

Hey, would you want to touch a thread after an admin licked it?
In any case, getting a stone and no attendant magic has me thinking. What if that "None" were taken in a different direction? "Hopedasher" seems like a suitable name for a source of antimagic.
The Omni construction is perfect, I really want to read some chapters about him, in the future and maybe the own fiction. Lise you really got my interest to read this fictions.
7990385 hmmm... hmmmmmm! Hopefully it will be revealed this weekend... at last :)
7990701
Part of the identities are uncovered in the companion fic (marked as a sequel by the fim system :)
7990712
Oops O:)
7990731
Since the focus is colts, it's expected 6:1 in favor for males :)
7991108
Cried :)
PPI has no comment on this?
7992073
That would depend on the admin.
7991029
7992106
7991648
...Are you asking me to write the MCE chapters AND fanfuctions related to this fic? O.O
Please, I'm only human... have some mercy :)
7990891 7985341 7987603 7991029 7991430
All new identities will be uncovered in the next meetup... if I make it to 150 :P Hints will be abundant, though :D
7992153 Maybe you can do that as project for the next year, I would like to read about Midnight Castle series. I would say this is a perfect idea.
7991456
7991776
it will happen
7992073 pfft! :) Nice, observation :) But wrong :P Or maybe not quite?
7992175 WTF??!!! And, assuming we are even half right, does InItForTheShipping know? Does she come to know?!
7992292 Wow! You're rereading the story to see how it looks knowing the participants? :)
7992258 That would be telling ;) Also, you assume you were correct. As Brush said "everyone is a supermodel, Princess, or a stallion online" :P
7992258 And I actually asked, knowing answering would be against a creative writer's code (though it's not really laws so much as it just some guide lines).
7992344 We cross posted.

The more rational fans have eased up on Flash by now too, I found. He's grown over the course of the shorts and the movies. Though he gets more shipping with Sunset again, it seems, rather than Twilight. And I don't mind one bit.
In fact, I think Flash could make a nice addition to this story as well. His VA explained that Flash is a well-meaning goof who tries to look cool but often fails. That's a nice contrast to the toxic addition that is Jade.
For that matter... Brush has a brother. A younger brother. I wonder how she would react if he joined and some mare started flirting with him like Brush did with the boys..? Shoe's on the other hoof now, Brush. Watcha goin' do about it?
7992341 Eeyup. Picked up on a lot of info that I missed on my first read-through.
The first time I read, I got confused by the references to MixaMax's sister, and I thought it meant she and Brush were sisters.
7992106
7992153
How far are you willing to dive down the rabbit hole?
...I'd still probably read it, though.
7992847 It helps that VA Vincent Tong gets to more and more conventions. He's a great guy, and as fans meet and come to like him they tend to think more kindly of his character.
At PoNYcon 2015 he needed a fan's question explained - he'd never heard the expression "waifu stealer" before. I haven't hear him asked about stealing waifu's since.
Everyone, I'm thinking of a small surprise for you all. Can you please tell me your availability this weekend? (Converted to GMT times, sorry) :)
7993678 I'm in the UK already, no need to convert to GMT when I'm already in it. XD I'll be out most of saturday apart from a pocket between 12pm and 3pm, and from 5pm onwards - but I'll be home all of sunday I think.
Crazy theory time regarding the two Sparkles:
Human Twilight and pony Twilight have swapped places in order to study each other's worlds. DarkSparkle is Sci-Twi, currently living in Equestria; LightSparkle is pony Twilight, currently living in Pedestria.
7993678 all Weekend, UK time anyway
7994161 thanks for the rundown
