1) Yeah, but it’s a little different if it really exists.

2) If you’re casting a spell, you need to capitalize proper names. It’s not hug; it’s Hug.

3) Thanks! I like the way swing rhythm sounds! Just wish it wasn’t so hard to do.

4) Glad you like it! Not the track I was originally working on for you, but it’s the best I could do for now.

1) Well, it was going to be next Tuesday, but somepony just ruined it. Now I’ll have to move things around.

2) This is my favorite kind of question. Really. I just love thinking about this.

3) Well played, little filly.

4) I’m sorry. I’m not used to differing economic models. Could you explain?

5) Somewhere between two and seven percent, I imagine. I’m only guessing, though.

6) None that come to mind.

7) Oh sweetheart, you opened up my eyes.

But that is still a stupid name.

1) Elementary, my dear Jacob.

2) Okay. Following you so far.

3) According to your human french history, a rebellion. Pretty dangerous stuff.

4) Depending on interpretation of the term “king,” there were some rulers that thought they were gods. Further, what are the powers of the god?

I think I see where you’re going with this, though.

5) If the god actually exists, they’re still a god. Doesn’t matter if you believe in a wasp’s nest or not, they’ll still tear you up if you get too close. The question is if it’s real or not.

6) I was gathering information about quality, faculty, facility, residents; somepony else gathered information about any orphans that still lived on the streets, among other things. There were a number of towns without any orphanages, and there were supposed to be efforts to correct that in the works, but things have been held up so many times I don’t know if they’ll ever really go through with it. Red tape.

But I needed a reason to get away from Canterlot.

7) Save up? Yeah. Let’s see if I can get out of the red first. That’s why I was looking forward to the trip with my bearfriend. I can’t afford any of this stuff. But we had to cancel it.

Not sure how much I’d want to go “exotic,” but I’d certainly like to visit somewhere else at a slower pace.

Thanks for the offer, though! That was nice!

8) My bearfriend being cold as ice, fillies and gentlecolts.

Not sure why my object name is Harp when I’m clearly a lyre, but whatevs. It’s still awesome! Thanks! I especially like Scoota-Bot’s and Charlie’s!

1) Thanks. Always nice to meet a fan.

2) Love you too, anon.

3) Well, it is still wintery… I could change it back for now.

4) Are good at boxing.

5) I neither confirm nor deny any information about my person without explicit knowledge before hoof of the details in question.

6) O~h, there’s been a few times…

But of course I’d never, Strawberry.

7) Sorry, I don’t mean for you to be tailoring posts to me. I just like your drawings!

8) La la la! I can’t hear you…!

Read you.

I can’t read you! Eyes are cloeasefde!@

1) I finished Krastos’ present, but now I’m not sure if I want to give it to him or not. He’s going to be really busy… He won’t get to use it. Maybe I should just try to find something to buy after all.

2) Regrettably.

3) Sounds like a minor misunderstanding. This was less of a vacation-type thing and more of an information gathering-type thing. I was specifically gathering information about orphanages.

There were several of us in each group as we traveled. Whole thing took place over only a few weeks. We were rarely in a town for a day; sometimes went through a few. Barely got to see or do anything. Extremely low funded operation. We had to even bring non-perishable food with us for nearly the whole trip.

As sort of a celebration, though, we ate at a cheaper restaurant and I got these parmesan noodles with spaghetti sauce? That was good! I’ve had it a few times since then.

Immediately after that was when I was employed as an ambonic musician.

4) I guess being walked around the hallways of the castle from one room to another. I had to be shifted around a lot. Pretty fantastic place, if you’ve never been though.

5) Well, I got through the introduction. That is a lot to look through, even without the text rips. I wasn’t aware that Ion Storm had a bad reputation at the time. I never played the game on computer, only PS2, so I got a hold of it quite a while after it first launched.

6) That’s what we called them back in the streets, and they didn’t seem to care. They referred to themselves the same way. But once I moved to Ponyville everypony was all “You can’t say that! That’s offensive!” So… I dunno. Regional, I guess.

So, I was gonna do this thing where I didn’t post for a while, then ponies would reread the last post and see the last answer and then they’d be all “Oh no! You weren’t serious, were you Lyra? Please come back! We love you!

Only that didn’t happen… I update everyday, but I didn’t make a post for just shy of three days and nopony said anything about it…

I’m cry.

But you didn’t see me cry.

1) New Horseleans? Please be joking. That can’t exist. A good and just Celestia wouldn’t allow it.

2) A couple of years ago when I was with my last coltfriend. I didn’t trust him.

He was clean, though. ‘Bout the only positive thing about the guy…

3) Would probably get a less bias opinion from bear-bear.

4) Yay! What do I win?!

5) As long as you don’t call me Johnson.

6) Because we don’t want to execute them. We just want them to leave us alone.

7) I don’t think you do. I think it’s a want; not a need.

1) And why would I do that?

2) Well, according to Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne, the good “neutral” ending is that there is no “reason”. The purpose of being is freedom in union. This doesn’t mean we have the right or even ability to do whatever we want, but that there isn’t one path set out for us to follow. We all possess the freedom to pick and choose where to go and who to associate with.

If you’re looking for a reason to live, look inward and create a reason. Do you want to gain? Do you want to help others? Do you want to experience? Do you want to cause change? These are all possible, though scaled depending on your resources or other limitations.

I personally live for the experience. It’s simple and only requires as much from you as you’re willing to put forth, but it works. There’s always more to see and do.

3) Did you fall on your head? There’s already tons of Lyras!

4) Like, the planet? I think Princess’ Celestia and Luna could just move the planet back.

5) She didn’t say they couldn’t sing. She said the song wasn’t very good.

6) No. I had to stay with Bon-Bon and Tootsie. Krastos came over, though. We had a quiet evening together.

7) Yes! [omitted] yes! HA! Ha ha! I [omitted] win! This tumblr is over! I’m the winner! I win all the things! HA! Ha ha ha ha ha~!

1) It took him a solid thirty seconds to even start his attack! I could have defeated him in that time!

2) That doctor’s a quack. That’s like telling somepony who’s addicted to ketchup to eat more ketchup.

3) Uh huh… Well, thanks for the warning.

4) We haven’t yet. We pushed back the gift giving because I was sick for so long. But I’m almost done! I made this one!

5) Let me just pause you right there at the beginning: “Something will be done because it should be done,” is not an argument.

As for the rest, I could argue, but I’d rather agree. Your society constantly covers up information that’s recorded until a later date to protect those involved. What’s the difference? It doesn’t mean the information isn’t being kept, just not released.

6) No! No! It’s a place! I didn’t! You can’t tell! Stop! Please! Don’t! I-I don’t wanna get in trouble!

Also, Miss Princess Shining Armor was a nice touch.

7) Senpai! Uguu~!

I don’t even know what I’m saying. What am I doing anymore?

1) I’m such a nag that sometimes I forget when and who I’ve nagged lately.

Because I nag all the time.

Things are fine. Just trying to spend some time together before he starts on his doctorate.

Doctor Arctos.

2) Well I think he’s cute. I wonder if he’ll ever notice me.

That’s… That’s the tumblr joke, right? Senpai or somethin’?

3) Ya~y!

4) It’s supposed to be gold, and because that’s my eye, cutie mark, and magic color. Not that there’s anything wrong with purple.

5) Then my last name sucks.

6) Bon-Bon told me the song they sang at that reunion wasn’t very good.

7) … What? What is this about and where is it coming from?
