i’m a living example of that

Yeah the story I’m writing is EqG and I understand not everyone enjoys that.
 
And Yeah I also like to think of Flash as the nice guy you don’t want to piss off. Bad things happen when a gentle soul is pushed too far.

@Spiritspiral7  
that’s a good plot for him, but i never use his human counterpart because i’m not a big fan of EqG. I also use this “forgiving” personality to him, but he’s not a pushover. He knows how to be stern when the situation calls for it

@maverick159  
I like to think of Flash as being very trusting and optimistic, possible to point of being gullible sometimes(I don’t think he’s stupid there is a difference). He’s quick to see the better side of people, even if it isn’t shown much. How else do you think he was able to date Sunset. I see him as one of the few people outside of the mane six that would support Sunset reforming.

that’s really interesting seeing that everyone still hated her in the second movie

I do own Pokemon X, but I haven’t played it much.  
But yeah in my story Comet’s gonna try various methods of bullying Sunset to force her to leave(ether back to her own world or to a different town) and stop having anything to do with Flash. Flash himself is very forgiving and accepting that Sunset’s trying to turn over a new leaf, so Comet’s methods are very indirect at first because he’s more of strategist than anything.

yeah it is, and you should play it. Once you start playing you can never go back

Team Plasma? That’s Pokemon right? I’m not that familiar with Pokemon.

I’m feeling some Team Plasma vibe

@maverick159  
Comet has a grudge against Sunset for how she used to lie and how she treated Flash when they were dating. Also what happen at the Fall Formal could’ve got Flash(and many others) hurt or killed. He’s also a little paranoid of beings from other worlds and the (potentially) negative effects they can have.

@Spiritspiral7  
Who? Flash or Comet?
Spiritspiral7

@maverick159  
Yeah his relation to Flash is something of The Overprotective Big Brother(not sure if I actually will go with sibling or cousin) and he’ll be starting in my story as an antagonist because he holds a deep grudge against Sunset Shimmer.

That sounds interesting

@maverick159  
I’m actually in the middle of writing a fanfic that involves Comet Tail being related to Flash.(With a 100% made up personality since he’s a background pony)

Yeah, that’s exactly how i see them! But sometimes lightning drags him into those situations. They where energetic kids after all
Spiritspiral7

@Background Pony #7825  
What do you mean? Flash has no confirmed canon siblings.
Background Pony #1E7B
@Spiritspiral7  
not siblings, flash alredy has too many siblings.
Spiritspiral7

@maverick159  
My take on pony magic that all pony are potentially capable of all magic, it’s just each one has their own specialties.(Earth ponies being partial to earth based magic like plant and ground manipulation, Pegasi favor weather magic like wind, rain, and lightning, and Unicorns specialize in ethereal magic like energy manipulation)
 
I kind of like the idea of Lightning Dust being related to Flash(if not as sibling, maybe a close cousins), but I always imagined her as having always been a trouble maker Flash has had to looked out for and bail out because he cares about her.

Pegasi kinda have some magic so that is pretty acceptable. I also made him inspired in fox mccloud since he had almost nothing of characterization
Spiritspiral7

@maverick159  
You’re welcome. I also imagine Flash is adept in using lightning based magic.(mostly because of a awesome picture I saw once)

In my take he’s fast on the trigger. He can find his targets in a blink of an eye and is fast enough to go and find another sniper spot. He has some experience in close combat too, but it is as a sniper where he truly shines.
 
But i also headcanon him and lightning dust as siblings, so lightning is pretty much the close combat version of him (actualy, i am making a story with this headcanon so lightning being a twin shortsword master is very amazing. Thanks for the idea)
Spiritspiral7

@maverick159  
My personal take was twin shortswords. Weapons to match a speedy fighting style that would earn him the nickname “The Lightning Flash” Sentry.

@TiberiusPonificus  
i’m the only one who thought him as a crossbow guy? okay :(
Spiritspiral7

@TiberiusPonificus  
It’s kind of a spear/axe hybrid. I think that makes it better.(more versatile)  
Also, it’d be even better if he could still play it like a guitar for music based magic.
TiberiusPonificus

Neat design. Love the axe. Always thought him as a spear guy. Polearms, either way.
