Ask Lyra

Sep 19

rainbowdash-answers asked: Hmm.. so i got what you mean, but clear that out under you two, you wouldn't want to make Sweetie think you have anger issues, Lyra! Besides that it's well known that you deslike type, yeah he made mistakes ain life so did we all! But could you at least talk with him in a normal manner? The last thing i want is hate messages ping-pong on my dashboard!

No.

Life isn’t about just being a doormat for everypony to walk over you. That’s just as important of a lesson as being nice

I’m only giving him an inch because of Sweetie.

jmg1234-deactivated20140425 asked: wait, so as a sub, you teach a wide range of classes, not just spec-ed. correct me if i'm wrong, i've not been to shcool in a long while

I would, if I was teaching. But I’m just an aid. I could teach one-on-one in wider subjects, but for the most part it seems like I’ll be in Special Education classrooms.

typeandprint-deactivated2012012 asked: I haven't spoken to you in, like a month, so I just wanted to check, do you still despise me, or are you willing to speak to me again? Because I'd still like to try to be your friend, if I can.

You still rich, living in your heavily fortified ivory tower, helping out with explosives for dragons that deign themselves fit to wipe out entire ecosystems beneath our town?

You’re such an arrogant little putz, that you think you can learn more about ancient history, on your own, than an entire species, with aid from our own government!

No, I don’t like you. Every time I hear your name come up it’s something negative. What do you even hope to get out of this? You’re never going to be a part of my life; I won’t allow it.

So if you want something, get to it so you can get going. I’m letting you ask me something.

garyyo asked: Lyra, I thought you were one of the coolest ponies around. Turns out you are.

Well aren’t you just the sweetest thing!

And nothing better ever happen to my save data~!

theblackstrawberry asked: are you feeling better?

Not really, about to lay down again, actually.

This stuff will take time to start working.

Anonymous asked: Well I hope you enjoy all the strange looks you receive. And all the insults you hear. And all the threats you'll get.

Aw! It’ll be just like old times!

‘Cause when I was dating somepony in a gang, I never got any awkward looks or threats!

Consider your bluff attempt failed. Should have put more points into the skill, n00b.

askgildagriffon replied to your post: Lyra, I thought you were one of the coolest ponies around.
Ignore Him. You And Krastos Are The Cutest Couple Ever. I Haven’t Seen Either Of You Since You Started Dating But I Really Want To See What You’re Like Together These Days. I Bet You’re Adorable.

Well, you certainly don’t want to see me right now. This sickness has got my hair all stringy, like straw.

rainbowdash-answers asked: Hey Lyra, what makes you think you are a guardian? Doen't Sweetie sometimes, get the feeling you are overprotective? Really, fillies need some space too! Remember that! Aside that, i should really talk with other Rainbow Dash did you know she APPROVED of Scootaloo swaring? and she calls herself a rolemodel? >:o

Guardian as in legal guardian. Only I’m not legally her guardian, so I can’t say legal guardian.

I give Sweetie tons of space!

I think… Let me know if you want more space, Sweetie!

I certainly don’t approve of a foal swearing, but there are different ways to raise a child. Differing family dynamics enforce differing sets of values.

Anonymous asked: Lyra, I thought you were one of the coolest ponies around. Why in the name of Celestia are you dating a bear?! There's plenty of good colts (or mares) out there for you.

I read the first sentence and had to stop. Then I read the rest and wished I’d just stopped entirely.

I don’t need to explain myself to anypony, thank you very much.

askpinklestia asked: So, did they bully you for being a green pony? I had that problem as a filly, and being called "Minty" did not help...

Short answer: no.

Long answer, there are worse things than being bullied.

Besides that, I had a bit of a violent streak in me. Ponies my age knew better than to take more than a few playful jabs.

velociraptorchap-deactivated201 asked: I'm sorry if this offends you, but if Sweetie Belle is your daughter who is the father?

Sweetie Belle isn’t my daughter. I’m just looking after her, like a guardian.

Anonymous asked: How far would you go in order to gain a pair of hands?

As far as the corner drugstore, but they’d better be on sale!

Anonymous asked: Was THAT a good question or what?

Wat.

swartzme asked: what do you think of sweetie belle's manager? me and him are good friend but i want to know what others think of him.

Manager? What? Sweetie doesn’t have a manager!

Wait… Is this about that Colta-Cola advert? That was a one time spot. Contract is over and you know it too. Buzz off! You’re not taking advantage of a child!

everpresentshades-blog asked: Are you planning on showing Sweetie any scary movies this Halloween? Less violent stuff like Psycho, The Haunting, or 1408?

Of course not!

Mostly because I don’t like horror movies.
