letterstoapplebloom replied to your post: Yew want me to draw yew a hug? Cuz ah will.
Oh it wouldn’t be a bother, ah’m kinda slacking as is, so ah’d like a re-motivator.

In that case, absolutely!

pastelshoals-blog asked: I'm sorry things have been so hard for you lately, Lyra. You of all ponies know that things get better, though. Good luck.

I’m… not sure who you’re thinking of. Things never really seem to get much better around here.

When it seems like they are, it all just ends up falling back down.

I’ll be okay, though. I still have to be there for Sweetie.

letterstoapplebloom-blog-blog asked: Yew want me to draw yew a hug? Cuz ah will.

Draw me a hug? Not entirely sure what that would look like.

I don’t want to load you down with work if you’re already busy. The last picture you drew me was wonderful, though. I’d be lying if I said I didn’t want to see another!

krastosthegluemaker-blog asked: Don't worry, I'll hug you as gently as possible.

Well, don’t be a sissy about it. Just don’t hug me so hard I start to pee on the floor!

unicyclistperiscopes asked: Alright I'll Set Off Soon. Just Don't Tell Anyone About Me Offering You A Hug Or They'll All Want One. Keep Strong Lyra, Things Will Be Alright.

Okay.

Um… Sorry. I kinda replied to that last message publicly…

ethepony asked: I'm sorry that you aren't doing too good. Please let me know if I can assist you in any way Lyra.

Thanks… Sorry, I can’t remember if we’ve met.

But wow! Your embroidery is amazing!

krastosthegluemaker-blog asked: I'm here too if you ever need a bear hug.

Sure, come on over.

Just don’t squeeze me too hard.

diamondmint asked: Sure, I'm already givin ya hugs, and crying, might as well stay.

Thanks.

cranberry-scotch-replies asked: I understand completely.

Thanks. But I really do appreciate the thought.

unicyclistperiscopes asked: I Don't Give Out Hugs Very Often But If You Need One I'd Be Happy To Give You One And Spend Some Time With You. I Understand If You'd Rather be Alone Though.

Actually, yeah. Do you wanna come over? Maybe we could get some work done or something.

Sweetie hammered out a bunch of drum sections while she was over. Just need to get the guitar work done on that Earthbound piece.

Do you have some time too, Mint?

diamondmint asked: I wont tell anyone, I might even join ya. *hugs*

Just going to turn Bon-Bon’s ipony’s speech detection software off.

Okay, ready.

diamondmint asked: Hey Lyra, want a hug from someone you have known for a while? I could use one, today is suck.

Yeah.

Just… Don’t tell anypony if I start to cry, okay?

cranberry-scotch-replies asked: I'm sorry to hear that. I hope you start feeling better. I don't usually offer it to someone I just met, but would you like a hug?

I would like a hug… But no, not from someone I just met.

It was a nice thought; would just be a little too awkward for me.

cranberry-scotch-replies asked: Hi, Lyra. How was your morning?

Little better than last night

Cried for at least two hours after I lied down and then fell asleep.

Anonymous asked: Hey there, Lyra! I don't know if this has been asked before, but are you related to Harpo Parish Nandermane?

Should I put that I’m an orphan in my sidebar or something?

I don’t know of any living relatives. I don’t even know of any dead relatives! I assume I had a mother and father, but I have no memory of them what-so-ever.

So the answer to “Are you related to X” is always going to be, “Probably not, but I don’t really know.”
