Anonymous asked: From my understanding, Bonbon keeps you quite well-fed. What is the single greatest thing you've ever eaten?
I don’t really have very sensitive taste buds. Around the time I started this tumblr thing Bon-Bon made truffle muffins. She said they were amazing, but I only thought they were okay.
Give me a wheat burger with cheese any day of the week.

At first I didn’t really see it, but wow…
It was already starting to grow on me, but when she said ‘Hold me’, that really hit home.
I have to admit, that’s a pretty good choice!
jmg1234-deactivated20140425 asked: sorry for bringing up bad memories
Oh no! Don’t be! It’s not your fault! What happened to you is terrible!
I’m glad you made it out alive!

Hey Now I Like Regular Rock Too.
I know you do, Gilda! But you do seem to lean more towards hard rock, so if I knew the genre, I’d pick a piece from there if I was going to try.

Uh… that’s difficult on two accounts.
One, music is very personal. I could try to pick something and end up completely off the mark.
Two, Mint and Gilda seem to like ‘hard rock’, I think they call it. I’m not such a fan, so I don’t really have too much knowledge about it. With me, it either has to be rock, or metal.
Or grunge or ska.

Luna above… I’m so sorry… That… That reminds me of things… Things I don’t want to think about…
The dragon at least has a box to stand on. There isn’t really anything we could do for such a large creature on a reliable bases.

Just sentient carnivorous species crapping on our way of life because it’s new to them. Nothing important in the grand scheme of things.
And you are savages, look at the way you treat every other animal. You alter the world in ways that make it a perfect environment for YOU, and nothing else.
There is nothing more savage then to destroy a creatures home, and to claim you are in the right to do so.
The ability to change the world in such drastic ways comes with equally drastic restraint. Restraint which we Griffons find you equines lack.

This, one hundred times this.
I knew there was a reason I enjoyed griffins.
That’s right. We are cruel creatures.
In fact, in only a few years we could render the entire world uninhabitable to both griffins and dragons. And with not one, but two living gods on our side, there’s nothing anything could do to stop us.
You really don’t give us enough credit. If we were the species of viruses you make us out to be, you wouldn’t be here to have an opinion.
I’m with Lyra on this. Every day your species has on this world is a gift from our Goddess. Don’t ever forget that. Complain and whine about the manifest destiny of the Equine species, curse and spit at us all you want, but always keep the fact that you’re only alive so long as Celestia permits it close to your heart.
I didn’t say that. I’m not a part of your racist debate.
I’m just saying that demonizing us for making the land we live in more comfortable doesn’t add up.

File My Talons?! It’s Worth The Extra Money I Spend On Strings And Repairs To Keep Them Sharp.
Well, there you go!
Edit: I got your back, Twilight!
Anonymous asked: Another guitar player here. While I don't know how a pony can play a guitar with their hooves (or magic for that matter) because you have to hold down each string separately and I imagine that for a pony it would be difficult. I'm wondering how a pony can do this? It's not a problem for me because I'm human so it's a easier. Also does gilda file her talons because if not she should really start doing that her guitar will last longer and you won't have to repaire it as oftten.
I just tape a pick to the edge of my hoof when playing my lyre manually. I imagine a guitar player would just use magic on the frets, or their wings.
I have no Equestrian idea how an earth pony would do it, but they always seem to find a way.
I’ve never really paid attention to whether Gilda plays with her talons or a pick.
theblackstrawberry asked: I really love your newest piece! you are amazing as always lyra, keep up the amazing work.
Thank you.
It really isn’t very good. I noticed it when I listened to the finished product before uploading it. But it’s nice that you’re trying to spare my feelings.
Anonymous asked: I just wanted to add that despite being slightly disappointed by this performance that I have loved your others and I think you're a real lovely pony and you're cool! does that raise the 2-4%?
Thanks. I’m pretty sure we’re well above the two percent mark now that I’ve called attention to it.
And I know what you’re trying to get it. I’m not discouraged. This was bound to happen eventually.
Anonymous asked: I'm not exactly the "Music aficionado" but In my opinion, I thought Kirby piece was a bit to "Jumbled" for a lack of a better word, all the instruments sounded to alike in tone so it sounded more like someone was dragging there hands across a keyboard while someone else was playing an actual song in the background. Also the individual volume of each instrument could probably be adjusted so that the "Main" Melody is in the foreground, rather than mixed with the rest of it.
Yeah… I noticed that… Unfortunately my lyre was the cause (I played bass). The original chiptune used more varied sounds. I think that’s the problem.
I could try and quieten things down on the bass side and upload it again while I’m working on something else, but I think that first problem is the major one. And there isn’t really anything I can do to solve it.
Live and learn.
