Flash Sentry is invited to a party he didn’t plan to be a part of, abandoned by the squadmate who roped him into coming to the dance club in the first place. The night was turning out to be like the last few times he was invited into a ‘guy’s night’, him sulking at a table and drinking alone.
The night took an unexpected turn the moment his gaze met hers…

Nice story. The way you described it made it easy for me to imagine it and I could feel the chemistry. Please tell me this is getting a sequel.
Why is there downvotes for this? WHY?!
A romance story with no dialogue... You've really got a knack for writing stories with niche, thoughtful ideas governing them, Chaos. I love it.
Makes me really wonder what's gonna be next!
For those of you who really like this author's style, I recommend checking out Muse -- a fic that gradually fleshes itself out as the two characters discuss how to write a story, within the story.
Not bad. The no dialogue approach worked well, and I liked the chemistry too.
I could see more of this, but it would have to be a fairly different story since you really couldn’t get away with not having any dialogue forever.

Two words: Flash. Sentry.
I read this story last night and to be honest, there is absolutely no reason that it should have this many downvotes.
It was a great descriptive piece, and strangely enough felt realistic. Excellent work, don't listen to the haters.

But its a ******* good one-shot!

As easy as it is for me to believe that, can't say I'm a fan of simply believing every dislike on my Flash Sentry-related stories is solely because of, well, Flash Sentry. That's too easy, not to mention I would feel really arrogant thinking this is always, or even mostly, the case. I still have plenty to learn about writing stories and what not, and simply knowing that you all enjoy these stories despite all the hate honestly fulfills me and makes me smile. So to those who support/like what I do, thank you guys for being awesome. For those who dislike it for genuine reasons, I love constructive criticism and would love to know how I could do better.
However... for those who simply downvoted because of Flash Sentry (likely meaning you haven't even read the story), I only got one, simple response...

Thanks for the comment! Titles are always a tricky affair.
But in regards to Flash Sentry, color me curious: What do you mean?
8340982
I see things a bit differently on the matter (though agree he was not handled very well), but I'll at least respect your stance on it. At the very least, I hope you enjoy the content of the story and see what it has to offer.

Ah, the good ol' "no character = bad" argument. I won't dwell on this too much since I'm not a fan of turning this comment section into a political war over a background pony I just happened to be a fan of. Feel free to poke me further via PM if you wish to continue, as I am unironically enjoying this debate.
However, I will answer your argument with this: You're correct. Flash Sentry (pony) does not have much of a character, if anything. Any interpretation I have on him could likely be thrown onto a random OC and have similar results. Funny enough, my stories might receive less fire if I paired Sunset or Twilight with an OC rather than Flash Sentry. So what gives? Why am I literally throwing myself on the pyre and openly admitted to be a heretic (aka fan of Flash Sentry)?
Probably the same reason most people give personalities and traits to other characters, such as Vinyl Scratch, *Muffins, Lyra, Bonbon, Snowflake/Bulk Biceps, Changeling 253156 (let's call that one Thorax ^^), and many others. Likely the same reason certain ships exist (insert ship you are not a fan of here) and some clops with the most fascinating fetishes occur. Your mileage may vary on exact reasons, but I imagine a majority of these fine, striving authors saw something in that particular idea. Some sort of potential that just spoke to them, begging to be given life and brought into the world. They liked the idea enough that they braved the elements and did the thing anyway. I'm no different, as I am a humble* author who has an undying passion to see potential in things otherwise overlooked and hated and decide to give it a home.
Does that make me the crazy cat lady of MLP? Eh, there are word reputations to have I suppose.
So I guess the only real thing I could say is that you're correct: Flash Sentry (pony) does not have a character, and my interpretations could easily replace Flash with an OC. But you can't say Flash isn't this particular character either, as there is no proof of the contrary (yes, I know this is a logical fallacy, but a point is still a point. Throw me a frickin' bone here XD.). However, to me, I am okay with his existence, though I wish the creators would've done something better with so much potential. Rather than look at things in a negative light and simply leave him in the trash, I prefer staying positive and simply work with a character I just happened to take a shine to despite being labeled a heretic.
To be fair, I at least know of one person who is a fan of Flash Sentry and would agree that I should utilize his potential and show the world how to take a negative and turn it into a positive. She's one of the smartest people I know and is all about seeing and bringing out the good in others.

Nice story. Any chance of a follow up?
Also thanks for showing me the new song.
8342231
Depending on how well received this is, I may or may not do a follow up.
Also, you can blame Pandora for that song. Made me love artists such as Tarkan, Mustafa Sandal, Amir Diab and Shakira. If you like that song with Tarkan, I also recommend "Kiss kiss" and "Shikidim" (one of my faves) by him.
Let's see Flash had four shots of hard cider, that's about 6 oz. Hard cider is about 7-8% alcohol, so okay, that's probably enough to get buzzed. Phew, okay, just making sure that you didn't get him stone drunk by mistake because that would be awful. (Sorry that I'm doing math and science on your story. I'm just a bit of a control freak when it comes to alcohol mostly because I have terrible alcohol tolerance.) Great story by the way. It's like those two dorks bring out the cute in each other.

Good math, there. And yeah, I love me some adorkables.

I didn't know that drinks weaker than vodka could even be served in shot glasses.
Its a simple love story of a guy not having much fun at a party before he met her....
I love the thoughts of Flash and how we can get Twilights thoughts through Flashs thoughts.
Somehow the scene with both ponies unable ti hear each other reminds me of a scene in the Wonderwomen Movie
I had a real fun time reading this story. It had great pacing, solid prose, and the lack of dialogue worked in its favor, making a nice flow of actions from start to finish. Please, keep it up with the Flashing.
I can't believe I'm leaving this kind of comment, but...
Sequel?
Fantastic TwiFlash story - definitely a keeper!
Awww this was a pretty nice story and seeing Flash and Twilight dancing with each other even though they have no idea who they are and not only that they didn't even say anything to each other but they really do like each other until he found out it's Princess Twilight Sparkle and Shining armors younger sister but as long as he treats her better I'm sure they will see each other again again this was a pretty nice story keep up the good work
