Ask Lyra

Anonymous asked: what would happen if you straightened out the twist of your horn?

The same thing that would happen if you straightened out the curve in a rib.

It would break and hurt like all hay come to Equestria.

theblackstrawberry asked: :( that's bad, i mean i like this one pony but i dont think she knows... and they already have a person, so i cant say anything even if i wanted to.

I’m sorry to hear that.

I’ve found it’s best not to linger on it, though. Life is too short to wait on somepony who isn’t available.

Funny that you said pony first and then person, though.

soundoflonesomeness asked: Hey, Lyra, I was just wondering about your apparent knowledge of Ponibooru. Doesn't it concern you that there is an entire tag dedicated to you, including real photographs of yourself? How did you come across this website?

Only a few of them are real, like the one I posted. It’s not terribly surprising, I like to photobomb!

All the drawing are… still pretty weird…

But after seeing the sea-pony ones, I’m mostly unphased now.

Edit: Oh! I found it in the link section on KYM.

garyyo asked: can calling a pony a mint be the equivalent of calling a human a [use your imagination]? pretty please?

Probably not.

That would leave Diamond Mint in a very awkward position.

theblackstrawberry asked: Did you ever like a pony when you knew they probably didn't like you?

First and third coltfriend.

First eventually returned the feeling; third only ever saw me as an object. He didn’t even care when I broke it off.

Anonymous asked: Ha ha! Look, everypony! This mint admits it emits a minty smell! Point and laugh at her!

severingjuan-deactivated2013020 asked: do you know about music??

Nope. Don’t know a darn thing about it.

Seriously. Music is so vast that unless somepony devoted their entire life to it, nopony would know diddly about it.

Anonymous asked: Hey minty! I bet you smell like a mint!

My hair does, yes.

Anonymous asked: Wait... How am I suppose to be colorist towards you if you say your favorite candy is skittles and not mints? By stating that your favorite candy is indeed mints, I would've been able to mocked you for it because you are mint colored. Thus you would've fallen into the stereotype of mint-colored ponies liking things that are minty. Why did you not do so?

Uh… I use mint-scented shampoo, if you want to be an idiot.

I mean ‘colorist.’

I mean idiot.

everpresentshades-blog asked: No chocolate love all up in here? I mean, I love fruit candy too, but every once in a while a Kit Kat is wonderful as well.

Milky Way are alright. Kit Kat too.

I just don’t prefer it.

askangeltherabbit-deactivated20 asked: Crazy things are going around. I was just turned to a 5ft deer rabbit the other day!

Why, that sounds like something I won’t know anything about until this Saturday!

Anonymous asked: Are mints your favorite type of candy?

No, fruity candy like Skittles and Starburst are.

letterstoapplebloom-blog-blog asked: That worked! Tanks Miss Lyra!! ~huggguu~

You’re welcome!

Too bad I sent that as a private message… Next time somepony asks I’ll have to write it again!

And it was an explanation about how to put links into your sidebar, in case anypony was wondering.
