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)?
1) Nah. I have a humansona! I made him for a 3.5e campaign!
2) Speaking of which. I’ve joined a group a bunch of times, but they all ended before they ever began. The one time we got far enough that I could fight I was a Minotaur Swordmage in 4e.
If you don’t get those timed defenses you’re going to get eaten!
Also there might be a slight input delay on my Kindle.

See, here’s my problem. Steven Universe is a very different show than, say, My Little Human. Steven Universe has very clear and concise rules, with a very limited cast, under which its world works. Even if you don’t know the reason behind something, because the show is told through Steven’s perspective, chances are there is one. And you’ll find out later. Maybe even dozens of episodes later!
My Little Human isn’t so stringent. If some information was omitted, it’s not usually because of a limited narrator or because it’ll be expanded on later. Most of the time, there just is no answer! It wasn’t necessary so nopony ever bothered to nail one down! And that’s where viewers can come in and fill in the blanks with their own imagination, without designating it as “alternate dimensions” or dreams.
One show allows for very plausible, viewer-created additions to fill in gaps left by the show. The other is just a show. No less a show, mind you, but more of a thing to be watched and experienced than one to be explored and immersed.
So… No. It can be fun looking at others’ Gemsonas, particularly their designs, but I don’t see a point in doing it myself.
