jmg1234-deactivated20140425 asked: to clear it up, beatles is a name of a 60s band

Yes. Twilight and I had an exchange about them not long ago. Poo was flung and rage was had by many blogrunners.

I was disappoint.

askangeltherabbit-deactivated20 asked: Boom, badabum!

Tag!

You’re it, little guy!

kittysneezes asked: Oh, I understand, you're a busy pony. Though, perhaps beetles can help with the music? I hear beetles are particularly good at playing bass and melodica.

Those would have to be some very organized beetles, or very small instruments!

Anonymous asked: Title Screen/Plantation, Grasstown, or Moonsong.

I only see one of those on the list.

How about I just give you the website and you tell me which one, in case the names are different?

Scroll down to where it says Cave Story (obviously).

kittysneezes asked: So, DO you like beetles?

I don’t have anything against them.

Sorry I can’t draw you a picture this time. All this music stuff just absorbs so much time… I’m already way behind!

jmg1234-deactivated20140425 asked: but trust me, once you see what an IED can do if you step on it, then getting shot is slow

Yes… I imagine an explosion would do much more damage far faster than a bullet…

jmg1234-deactivated20140425 asked: dang, thought i could get that one past you. but then sometimes they shoot the mag on our vests and 1 of 2 things hapen 1) they go off, endangering your comrads. 2) the mag is damaged and can't be used anymore. but even if they don't get shot, there's still a danger of them cooking off (look it up)

Well please don’t try to ‘get one past me!’ I try really hard to keep this page clean!

Cooking off does sound bad. The whole thing just sounds… so terrifying…

Anonymous asked: A suggestion. Maybe you could try to do something from Cave Story?

Well… I’ve never played it, but this isn’t the first time I’ve been asked.

And I have found a website that has sheet music for it since last time. Anything in particular you’d like to hear?

That sounds… just awful… That something so damaging can happen so fast…

eric-clopton-blog asked: Quite fine m'lady. Just trotting around, avoiding my army of rabid groupies. May I hide here for a bit?

I’m afraid not, sir. I don’t really let anypony inside while Tootsie is here. I’m a little overprotective. You could try hiding in the backyard, though!

jmg1234-deactivated20140425 asked: well, like i said, it didn't hurt as bad as getting shot w/ my vest on

Has that happened too?!

jmg1234-deactivated20140425 asked: well, don't be, unless you pulled the trigger.

I just hate thinking about anypony getting hurt…

eric-clopton-blog asked: Hello there! How are you tonight, lass?

Oh! Hello sir! I’m fine, how are you?

ask-big-mac-deactivated20111025 asked: Does it really? Heck, I used Audacity, I'll be sure 'ta try that out next time!

I only recently found out myself when I started doing these recordings. I have no idea how it does it, but it’s amazing! I couldn’t see even a drop in sound quality, the static was just… gone!

Anonymous asked: Yo Lyra, I'd just let you know the hood always got your back! Keep on doin yo thing, girl!

Well, not sure which ‘hood you belong to. I know there’s at least a few groups that would love to see me face down.

But thanks! Good to know, and I appreciate it!
