Ask Lyra

Oct 05

theblackstrawberry asked: Lyra... thank you... for everything.

You’re welcome?

Is everything alright?

theblackstrawberry asked: I'm sure ponies might see it later, maybe just busy tonight, or they're too shy.

I don’t think it’s from being shy.

Just must not favor ambionic.

Oh well, the next one will be more measured.

Then I have a request I meant to fill days ago.

Then I really, really need to get back on that Contra thing!

theblackstrawberry asked: I just heard your "newest" piece (part 2) it's beautiful. No word play, you and Mr. Krastos make beautiful music. But yeah, maybe not interested, but it was a silly minor thing anyways.

Thank you! I love the way it came out!

Evidently almost no pony else does, but whatever, I like it.

theblackstrawberry asked: Yep... Even when she was banished, I still thanked her for raising the moon, and Princess Celestia for both. It's been a long time since I've seen the princess though, and I've accepted that she probably wants to marry loyalty.

Well, it’s entirely possible that she just has no interest in romance at all. If that makes you feel any better.

theblackstrawberry asked: I met Princess Luna twice. One time was when I saw her because of some celebration, the other time was a week before she was banished. I saw her walking around late at night, and I just mustered up the courage and thanked her for raising the moon, I love the moon. I was actually able to talk to her for quite a bit, and we talked till dawn, and she had to leave to do her princess duties. That was the first time I liked any pony as cheesy as it may to have a small crush on the princess.

Wow…

daixxiii-deactivated20111025 asked: I've been meaning to ask this for a while: Why were you so P.O'd during the Iron pony competition? Were you betting on one of the competitors, was that drink just terrible? Something else entirely?

I wasn’t angry! I was just focusing! Honest!

Bon-Bon didn’t deliberately order me the wrong drink after I told her, like, three times I wanted a strawberry shake! That hot tea was fine on a scorching day; I didn’t mind!

Really!

exclamationpointman asked: Hey Lyra - again, sorry I'm back so soon, but I was really itching to ask you something! So, whats your view on children? You're reasonably young now, yeah, but what's your view for the future? Do you plan on ever finding that "special somebody" and having a decently large family? Maybe just adopt a solo child? What's your ideal living kin come the immediate and further future?

I have no intention of ever having a foal. There are too many in this world already, and too few willing to care for them. Disregard whether or not I even naturally can at this point.

I couldn’t say what the future will hold, though. Before Sweetie, before Boscov; I couldn’t have predicted any of this to save my life. I’m just coasting along, really. I stopped trying to plot out a course; nothing ever seems to stick anyway.

theblackstrawberry asked: ((OoC: omg <3 Boondocks)) I was a deliveryman who got caught up in things outside his own time period, things happen, you meet amazing spell casters and witches, things happen...

You’re over a millennium old? Did you meet Luna before she was ever banished to the moon?

Anonymous asked: If I made an account that could be held responsible, would you tell me all your dirty secrets then?

If you walked up to a random mare on the street and asked them about private matters, would you expect anything but a slap across the face?

Maybe if you eventually act like an adult, you immature foal.

theblackstrawberry asked: I've been on this planet for 1019 years... This doesn't include the few times i got revived, reborn, reincarnated, and reversed (age wise)

W-… What?

theblackstrawberry asked: I would never sell it because of the things that have happened to me, I've lived an unnaturally long life, so I'm the only person in my family's generation... I mean I could ask and probably find out, but wouldn't it be weird to see your great (x9) grand uncle, and he still looks like a colt?

Wait… How old are you?

dreamofhircine asked: You're a decent pony, Lyra. I wouldn't say a good pony because I don't really know anything about you besides what you put online, but I know that you're at least a decent one. That's rare these days.

In recognizing that, you probably know me better than most.

Not sure what would prompt that out of the blue, though.

I DIDN’T PUT THOSE IN MY BAG

O~o~h…

That makes more sense.

You cut the grass?
