Anonymous asked: I know that you're probably in a huge funk right now but I want you to know despite how you feel now, you did help her. You had enough love in your heart for her to help her when she needed you, and when the time came to let her make her own choice, to find her own way with her family you allowed her to make the choice that was best for her, even if it hurt you. A true parent will always put their child above themselves. You've proven yourself to be a wonderful mother. You should feel proud.
I’ll let Lyra know she did a good job.
letterstoapplebloom-blog-blog asked: Hey Lyra, how you holdin' up over there? Hopefully the storm didn't do too much damage.
Actually, a tree uprooted itself, fell into another tree, and both trees fell on my next-door-neighbor’s roof.
Turns out taking all the loose branches off of trees only helps so far.
daixxiii-deactivated20111025 asked: I've got three questions for you. (1) What is theblackstrawberry talking about? I'm worried. (2) Are you sick? (3) You mentioned something about foals dissapearing when you were a child. Did you ever find out why?
I was going to take care of Sweetie Belle from now on. In the end, I couldn’t bare the thought of splitting up their family.
I’m fine.
They were kidnapped. No one really bats an eye at an orphan disappearing. From there, any number of nightmarish scenarios.
cranberry-scotch-replies asked: I don't know. That sounded beautiful. Granted I don't know anyone else who plays a lyre to compare to. Anyway, do you use your hooves or magic to strum the strings?
Mostly magic.
If it’s simple I might play with my hooves.
Sometimes I use both, but it’s usually easiest to just use magic.
Edit: Oh, I play with a pick, though. So I always strum with a pick (or two). It just depends on if the pick is floating or if it’s taped to my hoof.
At first the world seems pretty big. But when you climb up high enough and look down, you see how small everything really is.
theblackstrawberry asked: :( im sorry i can't help. the only thing i can really do is stand next to you and keep you safe. i also heard your latest piece <3 i love it so much.
Thanks.
It was nothing, though. I can’t play by ear, but I’ve heard it so much from the ice cream cart every summer that it was pretty easy.
cranberry-scotch-replies asked: I'm actually doing good. How good are you with a lyre?
Terrible.
Judge for yourself. Either use this link or just head to my blog page and check the sidebar.
queenfrau asked: Hiya Lyra! Hey, that rhymes.
A little, yeah.
krastosthegluemaker-blog asked: If you ever need someone to just listen to you... I'm here for you, always.
I appreciate it, I really do.
I just need to ride it out. I’ve been through worse.
… I think…
theblackstrawberry asked: do you need help, want to go to the hospital?
There’s nothing they can do to ‘fix’ this.
diamondmint asked: Hey Lyra. News travels fast on the ponynet, and I kinda know what happened. I know you don't really open yourself up to anypony, but if ya ever need an ear, I'm usually always around.
I’ll be fine. I just need some time.
But thank you.
cranberry-scotch-replies asked: Hiya. I'm Cranberry Scotch. Nice to meet you. How are you?
Hello.
I feel numb and weak. How are you?
Anonymous asked: If you were to wake up made of glass, what would you do?
Shatter.
I’ve been beaten and banged around too much. I have to be made of something more resilient than glass.
jmg1234-deactivated20140425 asked: what did i miss?!?
Nothing…
Anonymous asked: You seem to care a lot about foals. Why?
When I was young, I saw a lot of my friends vanish and never turn up again.
Children deserve better than that. They deserve a chance.
