Anonymous asked: And here I was thinking about taking you up on that new icon thing. And Colorsymphony beat me to it easily. Not that it's a bad thing as they're better than I probably ever will be. Though I've got a plan to draw you up something again, probably Deus Ex related like before. I guess look forward to that within a couple weeks or something. Right. Question. Um. How about a hint to what your next piece you'll do on the lyre will be? Maybe make it so incredibly vague we'll never figure it out!
It’s the theme to Skyrim. I’d keep it a secret, but I’ve already said a number of times. It just keeps getting pushed back.
Only trouble is, I don’t know when I’ll be able to get to it. I’m wanting to at least get through a first run on five of these short stories I’m writing each week, but so far I haven’t even finished the first one. 911 calls aren’t fully standardized so it’s hard to get a good source of what all would be said.
Edit: And thank you for the drawing you plan to make! I’m sure it’ll be fabulous!
askspikesomething-deactivated20 asked: I like your new icon!
Thank you!
I wanted to tell you’ve gotten much better at drawing!
Thank you both! I had an excellent artist draw it for me!
theblackstrawberry asked: Lyra.... you look different...
Not to real for you, is it?

Lyra Pony
This is absolutely fantastic! Thank you so much, and it was amazing to see you draw it up!
Forever thank you!
jmg1234-deactivated20140425 asked: So basically that was your time consuming way of saying "I have no clue what your talking about"
Didn’t consume much of my time. Sorry if it took yours.
Princess sounds less formal and threatening, I guess.
jmg1234-deactivated20140425 asked: Movie didn't load. What was on it?
Oh, sorry. It was Don’t Stop Me Now by Queen.
jmg1234-deactivated20140425 asked: Wait, if she's a princess, where's the queen?
jmg1234-deactivated20140425 asked: What type of govt is it, absolute or constitutional monarchy.
Princess Celestia lets ponies do as they wish for the most part, but she has final say. If she says no, the answer is no.
Sort of like the presidential veto in your world, only there is no overturning it. I think she’s used it twice in my lifetime, but I was too young to remember what they were about.
1) Uh, what? What do you mean?
2) How do you wipe your butt without toilet paper? Huh?
Two can play that game.
3) I’m a healthy shade of green, thank you very much.
Also this is my coat.
4) I mean, I always knew you were clever, but this far transcends that. You are just the sweetest thing ever!
5) We’re close enough for her to let me know when an idea is really hair-brained.
Anonymous asked: Wait, I have an idea! Demand creates change, and if there's a want, there's a demand! I'll just find a number of ponies born without surnames, put them in situations in which they are deeply in love with someone they cannot marry for the same reason as you, and then there would be a want of marriage, creating a demand for new laws, which will lead to change! Quick Lyra, to the orphan dating network! We don't have time to lose! *Batman Mask of the Phantasm theme plays, best Batman theme.*
I showed this to Bon-Bon and she says it sounds like something I’d say.

Anonymous asked: I'm sorry. I just want to help. But I really can't do anything, since I know nothing about Equestrian law.
I understand if you want to help, but I’ve been up and down this with ponies who do know Equestian law. There’s no loopholes or workarounds. Something has to change, and that’s not going to happen overnight.
Might not even happen within my lifetime.
Anonymous asked: Then why don't you just have Boscov transformed into a pony? Then you two would be able to marry.
[Audible Sigh]
Let’s assume for a moment that Boscov and I were willing to do that.
You know how they keep records of births? These sorts of things are tracked to avoid illegal activity like providing false information. Boscov was born a bear. Even if he’s shapeshifted permanently, in the eyes of the law he’s still going to be a bear.
1) If he was still the nice, caring person he is now.
2) Tiring. It’s been a while since I’ve spent most of the day doing research.
Before anypony asks, I’m studying 911 call procedure on Human Earth.
