About SFB and Characters
About “School Festival Band”: When Timepiece and Soaring Flames (Jessica Ushiromiya) reunite at Fillyzawa High Schoo. Soaring became school body president and soon both Timepiece and Soaring came up with a idea for the School Festival and hire Flair Breeze and Ice Note in part of their amateur band. Timepiece, the lead singer can not come up with a good name, so she label themselves as “School Festival Band” named after the “School Festival” itself. ^^; Timepiece is the lead singer and bass replacement, Jessica is the lead bass and back-up singer, Flair handles the secondary guitar notes, and Ice Note handles the drums with his magic.
Their last debut arc appeared when the MLP Tumblr Prom was introduced.
Main Characters:
Timepiece: Hyperactive yet kind and unpredictible. Timepiece carries the talent of keeping track on time, as well can tell time. No-pony knows if it’s magic or just pony instints. She is very close friends with Jessica Ushiromiya (Soaring Flames) since kindergarden as her bodyguard. Ironic, when met at high school, it was Soaring Flames who keeps a guard on Timepiece and her unpredictible behavoir. She is a good friend to any-pony who ever met her, even non-ponies too. (Such as humans.)
Her role at the band was usually the vocals, but when not singing, she grabs the guitar in replacement of Jessica.
Soaring Flames (Jessica Ushiromiya): Strong and tomboysih, Soaring Flames (pony name) is the soon-to-be-heir of the Ushiromiya fortune, name, and including the house. But all she cares right now is to make her youth the best and memorable she ever hopped on. Unusual for a Earth Pony, her talents (from her Cutie Mark) usually involve igniting her brass hooves into flames and makes good use for wrestling matches. Medical records (AKA from the Umineko Wiki) states that Jessica was born with a bronchi and frequently has asthma attacks, but that does not stop her from being a spirited friend!
Right now she runs as Student President (by forced) and took advantage of her role to assemble the band with Timepiece and her two recruits: Flair Breeze and Ice Note.
At the “School Festival Band”, she is good at the guitar (she practices right after school). But when Timepiece takes the role, she usually sings her “angelic” voice out (commented from a few colts at her school).
Flair Breeze: Cool and a lady’s colt, he is the head of the Music Club, and also one of the “recruits” for Timepiece’s band for the school’s festival (hosted by Jessica). He usually “tries” to catch any mares hearts, but always fail at the end (including Timepiece and Jessica). He was good at the guitar, and is positioned at the bass role. Flair was first-friends with Ice Note since they were both at the Club, but later befriend Jessica and Timepiece as well. Even at the most depressing moments, he would try to “keep his cool”, even though his personal experiences really scar him and would ratter keep his experiences at a personal level.
Ice Note: Quiet yet a kind whispery Unicorn, he is the keytarist and drumist of the Music Club, and later recruited to the “School Festival Band” by Jessica and Timepiece. When not practicing his music, he usually attends the gardens, enjoy a quiet afternoon drinking tea, or taking care of his pet bunny, “Mikuru”. Ever since Timepiece made contact with the other worlds (or “Tumblrverse”), he befriends Siesta 45 and 410, two “big bunnies’ (about the same height as a pony), and had Mikuru take role as the “key rabbit” to that world.
Since he’s a Unicorn, he was the type of pony to take consideration in rumors that involve magic or supernaturals. (Like the “Midnght Channel” rumor for example.)
