askbasspony replied to your post: Hey Lyra. Glad to hear everything went well!

Well… I have a Pony Sphere 360… But I don’t like to loan my games out… Last time I did they came back covered in tree sap… sorry…

It’s cool. I have an X-Colt back at the house, and Bon-Bon brought my old GBA. I’ve been playing Pokemon Red. Or Blue… I don’t remember at the moment…

I used this glitched I read about to get me a Mew. I always wanted one.

askbasspony-deactivated20120130 asked: Hey Lyra. Glad to hear everything went well! Sucks you have to be stuck in the hospital so long... I have also heard that you are dealing with some other "Things" at the moment... A-anyway. I went to the library and had Twilight pick out some good novels to read why you are down. I was going to bring you some food but the hospital got nitpicky with me last time...

Heh heh heh heh heh…

I freakin’ hate reading books… I wanna play a video game… or my lyre…

Thanks. If I get desperate enough I’ll get to them.

rustic-ghost asked: Whats this about broken bones now? Also if you ask Yukari she should be able to fix it.

I’m fine.

This needs to heal naturally. Enough unicorn magic has gone into it already.

letterstoapplebloom replied to your post: Lyra, maybe yew should go take a bath er somethin’,

Oh yea. Ah’m sorry, ah forgot :C

It’s alright, little filly. I thought it was funny.

krastosthegluemaker-blog asked: Is there anything I can do for you while you're recovering?

Know how to play the lyre?

No, I’m fine. This painkiller just clounds my mind.

Clouds my mind.

everpresentshades-blog asked: I apologize if I sounded like a total dink there, I never mean to imply that she's a pet or anything of that nature. I guess I just thought things in a black and white perspective. I wasn't implying she be locked off from Rarity forever either. I don't know, I just hope whatever happens she gets the support she needs.

I know you meant well; it was just a metaphor.

In a way, it’s less about what Sweetie deserves… wants or deserves… and is more about what Rarity and I are capable of giving her.

letterstoapplebloom-blog-blog asked: Lyra, maybe yew should go take a bath er somethin', yer hair is all....messy and junk.

My surgery finished less than twelve hours ago, Applebloom. I’m not allowed out of bed.

jmg1234-deactivated20140425 asked: what painkillers did you get?

I haven’t a clue.

Probably some Equestrian generic…

… thing…

cranberry-scotch-replies asked: Hi, Lyra. It's good to know you'll make a full recovery. I count myself among the lucky few (or is it unlucky?) who have not ever broken a bone. I wouldn't wish that pain on my worst enemy, though, let alone you if I could help it.

This isn’t the first time for me.

Never shattered a bone before, though.

Anonymous asked: How fresh are you?

I haven’t bathed in about forty hours. I’ve had cold sweats all last night and half of the day today.

So, not very.

My hair must look awful…

everpresentshades-blog asked: Maybe the best idea would be to let Sweetie choose who she goes to live with? She's going to be the one most impacted by this exchange

I know it sounds good on paper to just let her choose. But Sweetie Belle isn’t a dog or some other kind of pet. She isn’t just going to adapt to whatever her surroundings are.

Sweetie’s still young and inexperienced. She doesn’t necessarily know what’s best for her. She might know what she wants, but wants and needs almost never overlap.

Nevermind the mental trauma being forced to make such a decision would put on her. How do you choose between family and friend? How do you justify the… um… unavoidable? Unavoidable truth that in picking one, you deny the other?

Undeniable, that’s what I meant to say…

No. As callus as it sounds, she doesn’t need to be involved in this decision. She’s fragile and that’s not fair to make her choose.

All I can say, is that if Sweetie lives with me and Bon-Bon, I will make sure that Rarity is still a part of her life.

*The white unicorn makes eye contact..looks like she is about to break into tears* I’m not even sure if she loves me Lyra..What happened yesterday was all my fault..

How could it have been your fault? Rarity, you’ve been pretty out of it yourself these last few days. You can’t do everything.

I’ve got Bon-Bon to help me out. You’re pretty much on your own. You and Basil have some pretty… um… vast… uh… cultural differences to overcome. And not just between each other, but the entire town.

Yesterday was unfortunate, but it was a learning experience. For all of us. Sweetie tried to run away from her problems, and it didn’t help. It was scary, but we can be thankful that she wasn’t in any real danger.

And of course she loves you. That’s not even in question.

She’s obviously not happy with me..I think I’ve done too much damage to our relationship to salvage anything good for the future..*Averts eyes to the ground* Whenever I mention your name, she just gets so happy..

I have it easier than you do. You have to be a mother-figure and a sister.

Maybe this way you can just be a sister… She needs one.

rarityreplies replied to your post: Lyra? Sweetie Belle is currently at school,
*Opens the door and slowly trots to your side.After exchanging greetings..*I’ve made a rather difficult decision on my way here…I think it would be best if I you took care of Sweetie Belle from now on..*Sigh*I’m obviously not doing enough..

Are you sure…?

Bon-Bon can look after her until I get home in a day or two, if you’re positive.

You’re either bored or you’re still injured.

You’re either sarcastic or really dense…

Heh…
