Ask Lyra

axegloryworm asked: RE: " I mean, what does Pinkie Pie have to do with partying? " Pink represents a female parting. The Pie is taken from a long generation of family, she didn't choose that last name(she probably would have chosen 'Cake').

Not sure where you’re getting your information from.

I pretty sure Pinkie was the name of a ghost from Pac-Man. If the reference was just to the color pink, why not just go by Pinkamena? There’s no less pink in the name.

All that assuming pink has any further representation to a feminine party beyond a simple baby shower.

krastosthegluemaker-blog asked: I was thinking maybe having dinner Friday night at that one jazz cafe in Ponyville would be nice.

I can dig it!

As long as they aren’t playing freeform… I mean, cheese is nice, but you don’t just sit there and eat it without some kinda substance.

Anonymous asked: Wait, that thing you mentioned about changing names, is that why so many ponies are named after their special talent/cutie mark?

Your guess is as good as mine.

I mean, what does Pinkie Pie have to do with partying?

Bah. Come here, you need hugs.

*Mint huggles Lyra*

SO how are thing with you and that friend of yours, the bear? You two still going out? Haha, I sound like your mom. :3

Yep!

We had a talk a few days ago. I think things are better for it. We’re supposed to be doing something Friday night, but he hasn’t told me what yet.

Oh Lyra, you’re so serious sometimes. You know you always got a job if you need one. You’re one of my best friends, I care bout ya. I wouldnt be a very good friend if I didnt worry bout ya silly.

Is something the matter that you aren’t telling me?

Hm hm hm~…

Glad to know I haven’t lost my poker face…

I was just joking, Mint. I know if I ever really needed anything you’d be there.

But you know? The sun rises in the east and sets to the west. There’s always something wrong.

askbitterchill-blog asked: I was actually talking about... well, I'll just post a link on my blog. Tumblr won't let me put links in asks.

Sorry. I’m not reading all that.

I got stuff not to do tonight and braincells not to use!

diamondmint:

Well, yeah. I mean I was financially secure long before I bought that place. But it’s self sustaining, and making a little bit of profit. 

How come? You gonna buy me out? Steal my little cafe and turn it into some kind of hipster hangout where you can perform for your loving crowds of beret wearing cool-man ponies?

*Trying not to giggle*

An’ what if I am? Haven’t you heard? I’m a high-rolla now. I made a cool three bits last week.

Humph.

Was just curious. Not like there’s anything I could do to help if it wasn’t.

diamondmint:

Uhm…not really. I haven’t seen her in a while. I hired some local ponies to work there, and I know the place has not burned to the ground yet. I really should spend more time there. 

Hmm… Financially secure for now, though, right?

@Lyra's house -

diamondmint:

Heck yes.

*Cutting two slices for each of them, Mint sits down with Lyra and talks about random things*

This is so good. :3

Sho’ nuff!

Say, is Applejack still helping you run that bar of yours?

askstarcatcher-deactivated20111 asked: xD Maybe it was. I'm still gonna call you Lyra~

I’d appreciate that.

askstarcatcher-deactivated20111 asked: You are NOT Heartstrings. You are Lyra. Mah Lyra.

I’m not exactly fond of the notion of belonging to anypony.

I don’t know. My real name isn’t Lyra. It’s probably not Liora either.

Maybe my real name is Heartstrings. I still prefer Lyra.

askbitterchill-blog asked: I meant the story. About the music and the images in the games? I don't think I remember any kind of scrolling code from what I read.

Okay.

Was this what you were talking about?

This is what I was talking about.

theverseoffreakyfred-deactivate asked: such a mane, id like to trim, to cut and feel the razor skim, i'm taken by a boyish whim, urging me to be... naaaaauuuuughty.~

I’m not exactly confident in your abilities.

Care to try those talents out on your own flowing locks?

Anonymous asked: According to Hasbro, your name is Heartstrings... Any comment?

No offense to Twilight, but you’d sooner find my corpse bald than with my mane like that.

diamondmint:

Yeah! I’m happy, and Celly is happy, so it should be good. Gonna be a while till I’m due, so I have plenty of time to get this sorted, get married to Celly, and other things.

I’m glad you are getting along and things are turning around for you. Ya know, if you ever need anything, feel free to ask. Oh oh, I brought some cheesecake. Reddy got me hooked on this particular shop, they make it so good.

Sounds great!

There was something I kinda wanted, but I haven’t even heard from Gilda in a while… No reason for it now.

Anyway. I appreciate the cheesecake! Let’s bust that bad colt open and have a slice!
