talktofirebug asked: After having a good, round-about reading: I trust you understand what "Self-fulfilling Prophecy" means, yes? Just in case you don't: The more you focus on something, the more likely it is to happen. It means, the more you hold on to a negative outlook, the more likely negative things will happen...
Tragedy is easier to deal with when you expect it.

… I don’t have any better of an explanation than that…
paemerbiksem asked: May I ask who the hay is Kratos or... That thing?
It’s Krastos, and he’s my boyfriend.
At least I hope he still is…
ethepony asked: Thank you for staying with Krastos, Lyra. If you need anything, please do not hesitate to ask.
Actually… And I feel horrible about this…
I need to get home so I can take Sweetie in to school tomorrow. Could you stay with Bos- I mean Krastos?
I’m not leaving yet… I can’t after what I just… What I just said. But I don’t want him to be left alone tonight.
Just shut up…
krastosthegluemaker-blog asked: And I don't want anything to happen to you... I love you Lyra, and I want to be with you... Forever.
I…
…
Love… is a difficult thing for me… I’ve been through such horrible things… Ponies that seemed just as benign as you… Ponies that I loved…
I’m not saying I think you would ever hurt me. That’s not it at all!
…
I know I’m capable of loving you. But I can’t lie to you, Boscov. It’s just… Not there yet…
I’m… I’m sorry…
daixxiii-deactivated20111025 asked: I'm not sure whether or not I should tell you to stop beating yourself up. On one hand, blaming yourself on things will fill your life with guilt. On the other hand, it certainly shows you're not some horrid person with an oversized ego. What I'm trying to say is that you're noble enough.
I’m not noble; I’m just all too aware of my own limitations.
theblackstrawberry asked: Is Mr. Krastos okay?
The hospital says he’s going to be okay.
But it’ll be a while.
krastosthegluemaker-blog asked: You're not selfish. We're all just trying to live our lives to the best of our abilities, even if they're aren't as good as we wish... And if anything, I'm the selfish one for just standing still when that gun was pulled out on me. I was willing to spread sorrow to others by dying all just so I wouldn't be violent.
I don’t know, Boscov. I just don’t want anything to happen to you.
krastosthegluemaker-blog asked: Lyra... Thank you for being here with me..
Thank you for being here with me.
I don’t even see you that much… I’m a horrible fillyfriend… But just knowing you’re around makes things so much easier on me.
Sorry I’m so selfish…

The Wishing Stone believes that it is possible to use my wish to heal Krastos. I don’t know Krastos as well as you do, and I can’t exactly ask him myself. Do you think Krastos would agree with that?
I don’t think he would, to be honest. I think he’d rather it be used to help others.
The doctors say he’ll get better. It’ll just take some time.
Anonymous asked: I didn't know this was supposed to be a sad occasion.
It’s not; I’m just afraid.
I’ve watched a lot of ponies slip away. I just don’t want it to happen again.
Don’t believe him, Lyra; that Anon is just offering you a Very Fortuitous Distraction.
I don’t get it.
Capitalized letters for a reason, I assume.
theblackstrawberry asked: I'm sorry... I've failed you as a friend... I failed to comfort you... I'm a bad friend...
We can’t always be there ever hour of the day. I know you care. I don’t even need to hear it from you to know you care.
Anonymous asked: The world is quiet here.
Feels awful still, that’s for sure.
I wish he’d wake up…
We’ve been transferred to the hospital in Canterlot.
In short order they’ve confirmed that Krastos will be alright; which is good, because I’m exhausted.
Professor, I had no idea you were so were so willing to sacrifice yourself, in however small a part, on my behalf. I am in your debt. You need not hesitate to ask, and if I’m capable I will comply.
I’m going to sleep in the waiting room… After I send a message to Sweetie Belle.
