typeandprint-deactivated2012012 asked: Miss Lyra? Discord is a creature called a Draconiquis, effectively a Chimera on steroids. He is evil, merciless, and cruel. He uses fell magic to swap a pony's personality to it's exact opposite, and he has already ruined several relationships and friendships. Avoid him at ALL costs...
Oh… That whole legend thing, about the statue on Canterlot Castle grounds. I’ll believe that when I see it.
Memory serves, though, it’s not about swapping a personality to its opposite, it’s shifting it into a form that causes mayhem. It would only work in direct opposites if somepony’s personality was governed almost solely by a harmonious attribute. Something like… that animal caregiver, Fluttershy, going from meek and kind to outrageous and hateful.
Anonymous asked: Are you ready to be ruled over by Discord? He's more or less guaranteed to beat Celestia at this point.
Meta powers wants me to direct you here.
You seem to be referring to Discord as though it’s a pony of some kind. Don’t know ‘em, though.

Puppy dog tails.
exclamationpointman asked: Hey Lyra, I love all of your lyre work! And while I generally hate unicorns - I've got to give you major props for the musical talent...here's my questions though: Do you play any other instruments? If yes, what? If no, why not and what WOULD you like to play? Do you have a preference for instruments when you're doing a dual piece with another artist?
Well, thank you for belaying your racism on my behalf.
This should help with most of the points. I’ll run through everything else quickly.
Sitar.
I found out the instrument I saw being played that I didn’t recognize is called a Pedal Steel Guitar. I’d like to play one of those! Here’s a video reference of it being played. Skip to here if you want to see where it gets awesome.
I personally like playing with guitars and bass guitars, but I like playing the bass on a piece, so I guess guitar would be the answer.
But Sweetie does an excellent job on drums.
Anonymous asked: What is your full name?
That’s a funny type of question.
I don’t even know if Liora is the name my parents gave me; it’s just what I was always called, as far back as I can remember anyway. I have no idea what my full name would be.
I’m just Lyra.

My hair is a mess and my eyes are all red.
Could have picked a better day to say that.
Anonymous asked: Who's Tootsie?
Bon-Bon’s nephew. She had her own tumblr for a bit, but I think she got tired of it.
lauren-box asked: So I've noticed you're always paired up with Bon-Bon which is kind of adorable but I digress. i-i was wondering how you two came together and were you best friends or something at first? Reason I ask is because I am current developing feelings for my own best friend (=w =; and uhhmmm yeah...
To review: I knew Bon-Bon a little from my childhood, but I hadn’t seen her in quite a while before moving in with her. But when you become roommates you give each other a little more trust and freedom, and all that good stuff from the start, especially when you’re the one moving in. We quickly grew into the closest of friends over the first year I lived here.
As for your current situation, I can’t quite relate. I’m not gay; I’ve never had any romantic feelings for Bon-Bon. At this point, she’s like a sister to me.
theblackstrawberry asked: I'm so glad to have the person I admire, my best friend, and the best pony be the same pony. I'm honored that you're worrying about me, but I'll be fine hopefully. I'll know by tomorrow, watch the paper, remember it has my bio stats.
Try to focus more on your mental health; think positive thoughts! And don’t let yourself get too tired either!
jmg1234-deactivated20140425 asked: /watch?v=ZbQ8n0AbW2U&NR=1 ha found something to change subjects even thought your probably asleep. 0:08 why do you cry? it's just a cake.
Not the first time I’ve been asked, but the first time I’ve seen a video of it.
Is there a documentary being produced or something? Where is all this footage coming from?
I do like that touch of music score I heard, though.
jmg1234-deactivated20140425 asked: who asked that?
Says anonymous.
Who knows?
Who cares?
What a horrible thing to think about…
Anonymous asked: i mean the whole, multiple rapes, violent drug deal, background that you refer to
Let me make one thing clear…
I have never been raped. Have I done some things I’d rather not have done? Sure, but I decided a long time ago that I would never be one hundred percent forced into anything. If it looked like I might have been, I went along with it willingly, You understand me?
I couldn’t live with myself if I was ever raped…
get it?
Yes, that is the joke.
It’s kind of wearing on me now, though.
Anonymous asked: Well just as long as nothing serious happens. ~Dancer101
It’s been like this for a while. I don’t see any reason for that to happen.
Anonymous asked: i am out of asks, but yea, did that sht really happen ooc?
Meta powers told me that OoC means out of character, but even if I knew how to respond properly in an “out-of-my-mind” sort of way, I’m not sure what your post is directed at. I’ve answered quite a few lately.
Edit: Going to assume you meant ‘shirt’, by the way.
