1) That’s just more reason to do it! I’ll have somepony to watch over me while I act a fool!
2) Given what took place today, that’s a lot more unsettling than it would have been before.
3) I’ve heard all the ones from 2 too much. I’m gonna pick Gemini Mare. Spark Mare as a close second. Honorable mention to Dust Mare for not sounding like a regular stage. It sounds like a fortress/late game level.
4) Love you, baby! /Mung Daal
5) Good thing I have a knack for fighting destiny, huh?
6) Not watching it.
7) They aren’t just skimming some sort of excess love off the surface, if there even is such a thing. They take love. And they take a lot of love. It drains their prey of that which gives us purpose. Even in the most sinister of souls, love is what gives us a natural reason to go on. Even if it’s a love of something wicked.
If you’re asking why they don’t show some sort of restraint and only take a little, I have a theory but no real evidence. The single study I’ve seen defines concentrated love as a substance that throws the subject into a sort of euphoric state. They feel elevated beyond anything they’ve previously experienced and they want more.
I see you!
Weird little game you humans made.
You can add me as your friend! I’m AskLyra!
1) WEELDING A MAGIC SWARD!
2) He’s gonna be a doctor in a year. What more can a grossly judgmental society ask for? Pretty sure I should be considered out of his league.
3) They’re all definitely cool pictures. But they’re pictures of a character, not really me.
4) Are you accusing some other Lyra or me?
6) I guess I’d want to know who my parents were, with Princess Celestia as a witness. I’d probably regret that wish, but at least I’d have my surname and unquestionable validity. Then I’d probably wish to be a really good musician and composer. Might just pocket the last one in case of emergency.
Sorry, no multiverse wide peace here. That’s something we strive for, but to ever truly reach it would eliminate free will.
7) Trash Metal.
Oh Noes!
Mr. Cake run out of here as fast as you can!
Thanks for all the fan mail you send me! Almost all of the ones I get are from you.
1) Oh… Uh… No… No I don’t think so.
2) Not in the slightest.
3) Funny you should mention that, having technically received the message before Krastos’ post.
4) No seriously, what is with tumblr and butts?
5) Once a day, in the evening so I can sleep in a little longer in the morning.
6) Nope.
7) No point wasting hope on what can not be.
8) Nah, I figured I’d go get drunk with a bunch of strangers and pass out in a bar.
Considering I’m on a phat roll with arting lately, here’s a doodle of G0ldstringer I’ve done while I was traveling, will probably make two versions out of this sketch. One as portrait which will serve as fanart to asklyra, and another simpler one which will be animated for Sugarcube Chronicles.
Can’t wait to kick off the first intermission.
I was just reminded about this! Sorry I forgot. This was the real first time I ever saw my character’s design! Somehow I never reblogged it before now. Thanks!

Now 20% more awful
These two posts are the first time I ever got to see how my character was designed for the project!

Now, unlike those boring elections in your world, this is actually interesting. For those that don’t know Puerto Rico, which is a territory of your United States, has been flirting with the idea of whether or not they want to try joining the country as an official state. It’s been going on for years. On the same day as your election, there was a proposition put to vote that resulted in a majority expressing interest in joining the union.
By no means does that action alone solidify anything; it’s a complicated process and the majority was narrow. However, your reelected president has gone on record to say that he would support Puerto Rico joining your U.S., if it was the collective will of the Puerto Rican population. The heart of the issue is whether or not it really is the will of the population. There are very real concerns about how the proposition was handled.
Why do I care at all? Even if you look through civilization after civilization, universe after universe, it’s not every day one stable society offers to willingly join another.
I thought we did have the talk… That same illness is the reason I don’t exactly have the best memory around.
1) Zero what? I’m not sure what you’re talking about, but if you’ll notice I said calender year.
2) Nope. I was off Tuesday, but only because it was a teacher work day and I’m not technically a teacher.
3) Let’s see here… Looks foreign… Adult? What’s Eroge? … Oh for Celestia’s sake…
5) A little. Mostly I wouldn’t expect her to be so egotistical about it
6) How…? How did you figure it out?! I was so careful to hide the truth!
7) Try again.
8) Oh [omitted]! I remember now! Krastos, I’m so sorry!
[video]
1) Darn. Now I feel even stupider.
2) We don’t use the same calender year as humans.
Regarding the idea itself, it doesn’t really matter. Now, it’s foolish to live every day of your life like it’s your last, because it will cost you in the future if you do live. It’s more important that you be content with life at any given point. Live for tomorrow, and if it never comes, you won’t miss it.
3) Not too much.
… A little. If my past ever catches up to me-… I don’t want him to get hurt. There are a lot of unaccounted for ponies and griffons that have every reason to be none too pleased with me. Maybe they’re still after me; maybe they moved on. I’ve no way of knowing.
4) You saw what I saw. He never mentioned it before, that I can remember. Probably because it took place before he was born.
5) Celebrating Thanksgiving, as far as any humans know.
6) Must have missed the reference. I watched a few of them and they were pretty funny! Just not one to sit down and watch something for a long, uninterrupted period of time. Plus I haven’t seen one in forever.
7) I… Don’t care?
… Yeah. Pretty sure I don’t care.
Yep! That’s right!
For the new revamp that’s going to be happening in just a few days, I’m going to need an art style that I can stick with and I need YOU to help me figure it out!
The ask box will be opened in just a few moments, and all I need you all to do is to send me either “A” or “B”, and on the day the new season starts, I will make a picture with the chosen style officially reopening this blog.
Happy voting all!
This is an important, hard-hitting issue! Vote today!

1) No thanks. You can take them back.
2)
3) Nothing? Work together to escape? All buffalo have horns.
4) What do you think?
5) Good all around! We’re all just a lot busier right now. Sorry for the short answer. Might be better to ask about each one separately.
6) Well, yeah. If it’s true that exposure to magic makes food taste bad, unicorns probably taste awful.
Also from that post, I think I just finally realized what that anon meant when they called me the Puma Mare, and I feel really, really stupid for not getting it.
7) A year ago I’d have been appalled that somepony sent a message like this to a page intended for audiences of all ages. At this point I’m just disappointed you lacked the articulation to formulate an appropriate cause and effect scenario.
1) I did. I’m sorry, Strawberry. All things must come to an end. All in all, it had a pretty dang good run.
2) Since I’ve never seen the movie, yeah go ahead.
3) Long story/series of events short, I hadn’t heard this song in years.
Thanks.
4) Taller? Right. We throw our shoes to make us feel taller too.
5) I enjoy a good question.
6) I feel such a label implies that there’s any choice in the matter. Either you live through it or you die. It’s not something you can just walk away from.
7) Not entirely. Either it strikes the frog and still hurts, or you hit the hoof wall and possibly lose your balance and twist your ankle. Really, it wouldn’t hurt any more for a human that walks around without shoes on all the time.
