krastosthegluemaker-blog asked: Well Lyra... If you ever do need a teddy bear to hold on to... I'm always here for you.
A few more minutes and that offer will likely be taken up.
By the by, good news! Bon-Bon pointed me to some additional decongestion medicine! Shouldn’t be sneezing or running quite as much. Likely more pleasant for you.
Still a bit drippy, though.
Anonymous asked: I notice you avoided my question. Nice try Lyra but not nice enough! I demand to know why you were relocated.
Even I’m not willing to answer that.
Suffice to say, legal reasons. Not up for discussion.
Ever.
rainbowdash-answers asked: An Answer, would be cool now! So, how ARE you? :)
Rather impatient, aren’t we?
I’m fine. Better than fine. It feels good to stretch every once in a while.
But in fairly short order, I’ll probably be an emotional wreck for the rest of the night.
I’m sure all will be well the subsequent morning.
Anonymous asked: So wait... You were at one time a sea pony... But then you got surgery and moved up to Canterlot where you became a government agent... And then you moved to Ponyville to keep tabs on Twilight Sparkle, all while dealing with personality relapses of your former seapony self? Wow, you've lived an... interesting life.
You should write a book.
You’re very creative.
rainbowdash-answers asked: Oh it's pretty relaxing, not muh up! And no i do not know, why would i ask then? Tell me, how are you really? :D
How am I really?
Hmm…
That is the question…
Anonymous asked: I thought you were sent from Canterlot to spy on Twilight by the Princess because she wanted to keep tabs on her because she's so magically powerful she's like a magic bomb waiting to go off. I'm probably wrong though because you'd be getting paid for that if that was the case so why did you get relocated?
…
That’s quite a mouthful.
What strange stories ponies piece together in their spare time.
rainbowdash-answers asked: Hey Lyra what's up?
Oh… You know…
How about yourself?
Anonymous asked: Well, you can look at the bright side of life, Lyra. You basically have your own personal giant teddy bear.
Yes… I suppose that’s true, in a way.
Just what one needs to clear the mind.
And no pony worry about me. W-I’m just fine. Or I will be, once I calm down some more.
Anonymous asked: Tell me, are the rumors of you stalking Twilight Sparkle from Canterlot because she snubbed you, in an effort to make her submit to your will true? Also, Agent G didn't let slip who you were in the least.
…
That’s exactly what’s going on.
You are a clever little investigator, aren’t you?
Now, with that solved, let’s hear no more of the matter.
Anonymous asked: Ooops. I feel kinda bad now. I was just trying to tell you how I felt on Anon. I didn't think you would think I was Blues. Sorry about that Lyra, at least you cleared the air. Everypony still loves you (especially me)!
I don’t suppose you can really be blamed.
I’m sure this will all blow over, given time.
krastosthegluemaker-blog asked: Lyra... I...I'm here for you.
You really are a sweet little bear.
But don’t worry about L-me. I’m much more resilient than I look.
starcatcherpone-deactivated2017 asked: Lyra... I didn't send that to you... but I... *starts lightly crying* I'm so sorry... I never knew...
What…?
But…
And I…

Anonymous asked: So I tell you how I feel and you just ignore me. That hurts Lyra, that really hurts. I thought you didn't ignore any questions. Am I that worthless to you that I can just be ignored?
You want to have this out right now? With me sick as [omitted] and medicated into a haze? You disappear week after week and you choose now to press me? Fine.
I don’t know what the [omitted] I want anymore! I thought I did. I was positive for an eternity. But I don’t know anymore…
The idea of just traveling with a band from place to place, without a care in the world for anything… It was an escape. It was an escape from the reality that I’m stuck here. Or stuck there. Or wherever I’m assigned to go!
I never wanted to leave the castle! I was told months in advance about being relocated… And it still came too soon! I never wanted to come to Ponyville! I… I hated this place! And that escape? That little notion of abandoning it all and getting out? That’s what kept me going!
But… Things changed… I have friends now… Real ones. Or, at least I hope real ones… And Sweetie Belle. How could I ever leave her? She’s my life now… She reminds me so much of myself… I have to make sure things turn out different! I can’t let her live through the horrors I faced!
And Krastos… he isn’t just a nice bear, he’s a family man! I’ve seen him with foals and… [sniff] I wish I could be like that… I’ll be honest, I don’t love him as much as I’ve loved in the past. But I feel like I can! I really do! Please don’t take this the wrong way, Krastos… You make me feel… like… like-
[Cough] [Cough]
Like the world isn’t such a dark place…
But you? Now you’re a teacher here in Ponyville now? You actually live here now? I wouldn’t ever have to wake up and you’d be gone?
…
Now that I could actually be with you… I don’t know that I want to… I don’t know that I ever wanted to… You were always perfect to me. The perfect escape. But now I don’t want to leave, and you couldn’t take me if I did…
…
It’s not fair… It’s not fair to me, and it’s not fair to you…
[Sniff]
That night… When I looked out the open window to the courtyard far below? It was you. That perfect escape is what I held on to. You’re the one that steadied my nerves… You’re the reason I’m here today.
[Sob]
And I’ll never be able to thank you enough for it… You really are perfect…
[Sniff]
But I can’t have you… I could never love you like a pony. You’d always be that thing; that idea that saved my life. I could never, and can never find any fault in you…
And that’s not love… That’s worship…
…
I’m sorry…
ask-sweetie-belle asked: I forgot to ask you before I asked him... but would it be alright if Krastos came over tonight? Please?
Of course, Sweetie!
I’m glad you enjoy his company so much to invite him yourself!
