1) Would you believe there are ponies who have memorized that bit of sentence vomit?
Incidentally
I own Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance, but I only ever did the section on
the ship and the VR missions. I already knew how most of the story went
and I really didn’t care.
2) Tootsie: What’s a flask?
Lyra: It’s… uhm… One of those little glass science-things, right?
Bon-Bon: It’s just a container for holding liquid.
3) Well, I guess I celebrated by starting to play The Secret World. More of a coincidence than celebration, though.
4) Okay. That would have deflated by now, right?
5) Well, I don’t really like Silver. At all.
What about ShadowxEspio?

Okay, so last night I had a dream- not a nightmare- and it was strange. I don’t remember how it started, but an old foalhood friend of mine and I, as adults, were in a play. It took place in a naval academy through three sets- all of which were set up at once- and we and the other actors would move between the sets as appropriate through, like, prop walls.
I seemed to be replacing some other actor. And my character was trying to propose to my friend’s character. We both loved each other, but my friend’s character was, I think, worried I was trying to advance our relationship too fast or something. There were some religious undertones and her character was very specific about wanting to get married for the right reasons. But she was about to leave the academy for some long voyage, and I couldn’t go for some reason.
Anyway, the whole thing eventually leads up to the big final scene where the center set turns out to actually be a secret forth set, as the walls of the building lower to reveal that the stairs were really the gangplank to board the ship. And my character and her character have our last conversation about love and marriage. And I remember my character said something along the lines of:
“I don’t feel that you will have changed when you get back. But the world will have.“
And that lead into a sorrowful, musical number for the ending, where it’s implied that their character leaves. And then everypony started clapping and the play was over and we all just kinda left the set to talk to the audience or something? I woke up soon after.
Mare, though. I wish I remembered that song. I remember it being really emotional and good.
Edit: Oh, and she and I were the lead singers of the song.

1) What? Me? No. I mean, pfft. Right? I mean, I have a Rainbow Dash wig but so does everypony.
2) SonicxTails? Bleh. They’re so awful together. I mean, SonicxKnuckles I could kinda see, but Sonic and Tails only even seem to be friends by association.
First ship… Maybe NessxPaula? I mean, if I shipped something they were usually characters I made in games like Disgaea or Ogre Battle. That’s like, not even noncanon. That’s uncanon.
3) Pinkie Twi? It just doesn’t work. Ponies be all “Opposites attract!” No. No.
You have to have a solid foundation. Common understanding of what is
acceptable behavior. Pinkie just doesn’t have the patience for
Twilight’s agenda. And Twilight isn’t willing enough to put off
nonessential duty for fun. Bad pairing. Bad bad pairing. Ends in tears.
Also, I should stop talking about shipping ponies I know. Now that I hear myself talking, eh, kinda creeping myself out.
2) Bon-Bon: No! She’s good! I don’t want her to think she’s bad! She knew a lot before she ever even came to me! But, if something does go wrong, it’s my business. Besides, that’s a lot of pressure to put on a young filly.
3) Well, most unicorns do at least some kind of magic. If you really want to travel down this road, I think the key might be to start looking through arcane textbooks and try to find out what the symbols that make up your cutie mark literally translate to.
4) I have no idea. Hanging out with other cultures?

agentcoffeeseer asked: Can you draw York in Bradford's outfit? (His tail is a tie.)
1) Bon-Bon: What’s the worst that could happen to a small business owner with thin profit margins? I could lose my business. That’s a pretty strong possibility in my head.
2) He wouldn’t answer, so I went though my tags and found this post. That’s about as close as you’ll get, I guess.
3) Tattoo on your…? I don’t guess most adults talk about those so much.
That’s your cutie mark. Think of it like the physical manifestation of your special talent. The one thing that, in your mind and heart, you were meant to do. I’m not one to pay much attention myself, but the few times I’ve looked close it appears arcane in nature. Like a magic circle used in ancient ceremonies to… Well, most of the stories about those don’t end so well.

1) Did I say I hate adventurers? I don’t remember saying that. Strawberry is, or was, an adventurer and I don’t hate him.
B: I hate adventurers-
He loathes adventurers. But he’s not my roommate.
B: Allegedly.
Allegedly.
2) Lyra: An entire police force? I wouldn’t be cut out to be that either. What about making candy?
Bon-Bon: One apprentice is enough, thank you.
Lyra: Oh. What about gardening or farming? A name like Black Strawberry sort of sounds like a pony that deals with produce.
3) Bon-Bon: I can’t stay away from the shop that long. It has to be something short and to the point. There and back. A weekend. A few of days max.
Lyra: Apprentice not ready to run the shop yet?
Bon-Bon: She could sell things in my absence, but I wouldn’t trust her with my supplies to make more candy. At least, not yet.

you haven’t gone unnoticed! thanks for sticking around this whole time. :)
1) I am acknowledging only that I’ve received this message. Also that you’re a chicken[omitted] for sending it anonymously.
2) Lyra: Yeah! That sounds good!.
Bon-Bon: As long as I don’t have to pull the wagon the whole way.
Lyra: We could take a train!
Bon-Bon: Or we could save a few bits and you could walk.
Lyra: Train it is! Now we just need to figure out where to… This is the same problem we started with. … I can see you rolling your eyes at me.
Bon-Bon: Good, because I’m not hiding it.
3) Electric bug-thing? Doesn’t sound familiar. You mean a firefly? Because I don’t think they can do that.
But that’s great! I mean, you already knew you worked for the government. But obviously knowing something and remembering something are two different things. Did you remember anything else?

asklyra asked: Can you do Lyra as a covert operative (just the jacket and shirt) with flashbang grenades (if visible)?
