Ask Lyra

Nov 15

hornuraakemi asked: Yo Lyra, what's up?

Just answering a few questions before I go to work.

Have a good day, everypony!

Anonymous asked: Would you ever try taking up wrestling?

I have some informal training in boxing.

But no.

Anonymous asked: Do you think Sweetie Belle could be a robot?

Even if I knew she wasn’t, no.

There’s no way a robot could have emotions like her.

Anonymous asked: Are you good at telling whether or not someone is wearing a disguise?

To what extent?

I mean, when Rarity and Applejack switched places during that relay-race, I certainly couldn’t tell the difference.

Anonymous asked: If you had the money, would you become a philantrophist?

Maybe…

I mean, probably.

Anonymous asked: What would you do if some young filly approached you and begged to become your apprentice?

Redirect their misguided adoration to somepony that can actually help.

Anonymous asked: How was your day, Fred?

I ate some nachos and had the opportunity to spell my name real good.

F-R-E-D

F-R-E-D-B-U-R-G-E-R

Fred Fredburger-Yes!

Eh, not bad. (Warning: coarse language)

The tracks sounded better individually, though.

rubysstuffblog asked: Hey Lyra, I love it up here, how about you? (I live in Canada by the way)

Uh… Yeah. Ponyville is pretty nice.

Don’t know about calling it “up here”, though.

theblackstrawberry asked: Lyra, how can I help make you happier?

Stop worshiping the ground I trot on and be happier yourself.

I want a friend, not a religious follower.

Wow! I got a bunch of messages!

Sorry! After Sweetie and I left Boscov’s (after a delightful dinner) I popped on to Minecraft and ran into Scooc! We played for hours! Found an abandoned mineshaft, retrieved some melon seeds, fought hoards of poisonous spiders. It was a blast!

I’ll have to get to the messages tomorrow; I gotta get to bed. I have work in the morning!

Uh-uh.

krastosthegluemaker-blog asked: Hey Lyra, sorry it's taken so long, but the green bean casserole is just about done.

Alright, Sweetie and I will be over in a jiffy!

theblackstrawberry asked: oh yeah... my mistake. You still are going to be though, and I dont think there's much I can do to change that...

You could stop raising me up on a pedestal and just see me as an equal.

theblackstrawberry asked: I know, but you are my friend, my hero, my idol. Unless you decide to teach me and/or adopt me, what else could i ask for? I admire every part of you!

I could just be your friend. I don’t need to be your hero, and certainly not your idol.

Also… Maybe watch your wording on that last sentence…
