The defeated changelings lie scattered around me, a paltry effort to stop my advance. But with my attention no longer focused on defending myself, I noticed the clouds in the sky had gathered and darkened. Thunder followed shortly. They were concealing their movements. I chanced a glance at the few injured bodies around me. Too Few. Their attacks, spread too far apart. They were merely a distraction. They had succeeded.
My gaze returned to the sky in time to find something massive ripping its way through the clouds in a dive with me as its heading. A dragon? Working for changelings? Impossible as it was I searched for its heart with my magic. Would that I could claim and constrict its beating, I could lay low the beast in moments.
Three, four, five times I grasped. But try as I might the spell could not find its mark. As precise as the power must be to succeed, it had never failed me so many times. An illusion? In desperation I fired a beam, but it made no contact. The dragon’s body split in half to avoid it, then rejoined. The realization hit me like a cart full of apples. This was no dragon, nor was it a trick.
I dove to avoid the deadly swipe of their talons, the gust from their lunge whipped about me and I could not resist the need to shut my eyes. Dust filled the air and the taste of dirt flooded my senses. I coughed in fits as I stood once more and batted the air around me.
When I caught my breath and chanced use of my sight, I found the monstrosity silhouetted against the moon, turning in for another swoop against me. A dragon made of changelings… Just when you think you’ve seen all they have, they throw a curve-ball… A [omitted] Voltron dragon made of changelings…
Alright, no fanfare. Here we go!
Thanks! You should just do a “Top Games” list, where you just list the games you’ve played this year that you liked.
Two other games I almost put on my list were Steamworld Heist (Turn-based 2D Strategy Game) and The Metronomicon (Rhythm-based RPG), but I don’t have nearly as many hours in those games to justify putting them above the others in my top 5.
asklyra replied to your post : Sound’s Top 5 Games of 2016
I’d do a top 5, but I don’t think I’ve played 5 different games this year. I remember playing the original Harvest Moon a lot. I like your list! And it wasn’t that long.
Okay! I’ll get something together in a few days!
In the mean time, Happy New Year!
Lyra: A decorating party… Whoever heard of a decorating party?
Bon-Bon: Lyra…
Lyra: I come to a party to socialize, eat, and have fun. Not to work.
Bon-Bon: Lyra, why do you always do this?
Lyra: Do what? Complain about something stupid?
Bon-Bon: Complain about something when you had fun. You were laughing, and smiling, and having fun. The decorating was fun! All those things you came for you did while helping somepony decorate that massive foyer she inherited. You got to help somepony and enjoy yourself at the same time! What more could anypony ask for on Hearth’s Warming Eve?
Lyra: … Nothing… Though technically, it is after midnight.
Bon-Bon: Happy Hearth’s Warming, Lyra
Lyra: Happy Hearth’s Warming, Bon-Bon.
One of my favorite spells in fantasy settings are the Dancing Lights cantrip.
Dancing Lights can be used for all sorts of things, like impressing your girl friend with shiny Christmas magic lights.
Bon-Bon: Why can’t you do anything like that?
Lyra: Oh, I can do somethin’ like that.
[Boof!]
Bon-Bon: Ah! My eyes!

Okay, so I made a post months back about making a Ponyville/Tumblr squad in XCom 2 whenever I got it (and I tried to reblog the post earlier but the image was illegible).
Well, here we are! This is just Ponyville folks and some randoms from the game, but if anyone wants to join the team let me know!

Lyra: Funny you should ask. Because!
Lyra: We just got a letter! We just got a letter! We just got a letter! But-it’s-clearly-marked-so-we-already-know-who-it’s-from.
[Paper ripping]
Lyra: Look! It’s a letter from our friends! Mostly.
Bon-Bon: Mostly?! That’s a letter from Princess Twilight!
Lyra: I’m just kidding! Mostly. We’re invited to a Hearth’s Warming party at Twilight’s Palace! There will be food and decorations-
Bon-Bon: Actually, that says decorating.
Lyra: I’m sure it’s just a typo. So yeah! That was pretty cool. Not a bad day!

1) That’s alright. Seems like a trend. Or the opposite of a trend.
There is nothing about this that doesn’t sound fantastic. This is like a page out of some ancient history text book!
I want to read this novel. I want Bon-Bon and I to read this novel.
2) Hey me again chris! It’s I, Once-More Lyra!
You know, I couldn’t help but notice most of our conversations are you saying hello to me through the messaging system or telling me its your birthday or that you had a good/bad day at work.
Got anything interesting going on? Any projects? Play any games? Marathon any shows?
