Bon-Bon: I hate that we’re stalking her. Why didn’t I just ground her again? Lyra: Because once we confront Liza, she’s gonna lie. The only way to know for certain what she’s been up to is if we see it ourselves.
Bon-Bon: What if she’s endangering herself? We’re already outside of town. Lyra: Well, she’s nearing the fork. Either Liza’s sneaking into Twilight’s Castle to go to the human world, or possibly mack on Spike… which’d mean I’d have to kill him… Or else she’s sneaking into the Friendship School… for some reason. Bon-Bon: PleaseBeTheFriendshipSchoolPleaseBeTheFriendshipSchool- Lyra: There’s no way its the Friendship School. Bon-Bon: Shut up! PleeeeeaseBeTheFriendshipSchool!
[Long Pause]
Lyra: What the hay. Bon-Bon: Why is she sneaking into the Friendship School?! Lyra: I thought that’s what you wanted! Bon-Bon: Shut! Up! I’m putting a stop to this! Lyra: Nooooononononononononono no no no no. No. No. We can’t give her any opportunity to act like this is a misunderstanding or the first time. We see this through. Then we ground the snot out of her.

Bon-Bon: Thank you for seeing us, your highness. And on such short notice.
Princess Luna: Consider it no inconvenience. One of our duties is to hold court, there is just… rarely a need.
Lyra: I’m… sorry?
Princess Luna: Do not concern yourself. Tis but a consequence of our work ethic. And to be frank, we prefer it that way. But you are here regarding Liza Doolots, are you not? Bon-Bon: Yes! Y-Your majesty
Princess Luna: Investigation of her dreams continue. Alas, the trail has grown quite cold. My perception begins and ends with her own. If she cannot create a clear vision, there is little I can resolve, save to dispel the sight.
Lyra: So she is seeing blood!
Princess Luna: That certainly appears to be the case. However, the context is absent. And to that end, her psychological reaction is… extreme.
Bon-Bon: Seeing blood isn’t supposed to be extreme?
Princess Luna: Throughout the night you will witness countless images devoid of context. While some invoke stronger reactions than others, tis not until you begin associating these that you truly dream. Liza often fixates on the color red. And that red often takes on a liquid form of varying consistency. Most would have only a mild reaction to such a vision, but Liza is quite disturbed by it. The cause of her fixation and why she is bothered are unclear. And yet, rarely do true dreams manifest from these visions. We do not presently consider them a cause for concern. Many ponies have strong fixations- Lyra: Wait! It’s not affecting her sleeping? Then why isn’t she sleeping well?
Princess Luna: Oh… She’s sneaking out at night. Bon-Bon: WHAT?!
Bon-Bon: No backward comment. No sideways remarks. Lyra: No!
Bon-Bon: Nothing that could be interpreted or lead somepony to start imagining-? Lyra: No! I don’t want Liza to know she was adopted! I never wanted to know I was adopted!
[Pause]
Bon-Bon: I’m wondering if maybe she should know, before- Lyra: Absolutely not. All it does is lead to a lifetime of insecurity. Trust me, I know. [Pause] Ribbon was right. Liza looks enough like her and Champagne that she should never question it. [Pause] She has said something to you, hasn’t she?
Bon-Bon: I was thinking back… and I remember a few months ago she mentioned something about a nightmare. Said there was a lot of red, and she thought it might be blood, but that she wasn’t sure. And… I’ve been noticing bags under her eyes on and off lately. I questioned it- she’s obviously not sleeping well, but she just shrugged it off. Maybe it’s reoccurring?
Lyra: Do we know anything about what happened to Liza’s real parents?
Bon-Bon: If Ribbon knows, she’s never brought it up.
Bon-Bon: You look upset. Ribbon: [Sigh] Liza’s teacher assigned one of those “who do you most admire” essays…
Bon-Bon: I’m sure she didn’t mean anything by it. Ribbon: It was a top five! How is your own mother not in the top five? My husband was there, of course. Lyra: I wasn’t there, was I? Ribbon: Praise Celestia, no! Lyra: Oh good. I don’t have to be in this conversation then.
Ribbon: I don’t understand… Does she hate me? Bon-Bon: Have you tried talking to her about this? Ribbon: Oh sure. That’ll go over about as well as any other time I try talking to her about literally anything. To this day, she has still avoiding explaining that unsightly knot that wound up on her head a few years ago.
Lyra: It just sounds to me like teen rebellion. You’re the authority figure. Ribbon: Well I certainly never signed up for this!
[Pause]
Bon-Bon: Technically… You literally did sign up for this. Ribbon: Yes I-… You don’t suppose that…? Liza doesn’t know does she?
Bon-Bon: She’s never made any indication to me. Lyra: Me neither. Though you have to figure she’s going to piece it together eventually. Ribbon: There is literally no reason she should ever “piece it together”! Lyra: Hey! I’ve said nothing to her! I still think it’s just teen rebellion! Ribbon: Well I hope you’re right… The last thing I want is for her to start looking for answers she’s never going to accept.
I just realized all the kids growing up with Spotify don’t have to spend money on specific music anymore, so they probably won’t have the memory of saving up money to buy their first CD and having it be something super cringy…like I think I saved up $15 for three weeks to buy the Pirates of the Caribbean soundtrack at Barnes & Noble when I was 9 and I was really proud of myself for that. Add your first CD you were way too proud of buying in the tags
Show…? Must mean the cameras…
But hey there! I’ve answered that one before, and it’s a longer answer, so I’ll just link to it.
As for playing one, cutie mark or not, I’m really not the best. And it’s not exactly a contemporary instrument. So, I don’t get a lot of work as a musician. I’ve uploaded a bunch of stuff over the years, though I don’t really record much that I play anymore.
Cute? Awesome? Well, I do try to keep some bounce in my mane. But y-you know, it’s no big.
These are the rest of the treats @allgreymatters sent me! I got doggies and candies and skullies! The holographic ones are my favorite (specifically the one that says SPOOKY and turns into an eye)!
Sorry it took me so long to upload this. And sorry the lighting in my room is so bad (it used to not be this bad).
Lyra: Yee! For Nightmare Night, I’m going as Lori from Night in the Woods!
Bon-Bon: I’m going as a Will-o-Wisp. Which basically just means I’m going to be wearing a plain, white dress wrapped in blue Hearth’s Warming lights on a pulse timer.
That is a very good quality gurdy…and I wish I could play like that…
If you’ve never heard hurdy-gurdy before, allow me to assure you that whatever you are expecting it to sound like, it won’t be even a fraction as cool as the real thing.
I was not expecting to hear a blistering hurdy-gurdy solo this fine morning
