diamondmint asked: Hey Lyra, had any chance to try out that electric Lyre? Just wondering, no rush.
Oh, if ya need any guitar or bass with your Spoonman recording, I might be able to help.
It sounds… weird. And I’m having trouble controlling the sound with magic. I don’t think it’s gonna work.
Maybe I’ll try the song again some other time. I’m just so put off by it right now.

typeandprint-deactivated2012012 asked: ...
I'm afraid I have no idea what that means...
Oh, unless Bon-Bon stops me you’re about to.
ask-snails-the-swag-master-deac asked: Have you and Octavia ever performed a duet together? That would be awesome.
I’ve only ever played with Octavia two or three times at large symphony-style gatherings. Octavia is too good compared to me, I’d mess up whatever piece we’re playing…
queenfrau asked: DANGIT, you saw through my plot, I was going to see if my anti-magic serum that lasts for 45 minutes would work, apparently your "Meta Powers" kicked it.
Oh well, might as well do THIS~!
*jams it in Lyras mouth*
*runs off laughing*
ask-gestapony-deactivated201110 asked: Aww dont worry about it Lyra, it was fine. My little failures: Practice is magic, right ? I didnt mind it. Hard song to cover with just a lyre.
Well, if that was the only problem… Well, it wouldn’t have been a problem!
I dunno… I was real excited about that one…
queenfrau asked: Hey Lyra, here's a lollypop, I want you to eat it.
Nothing special, just a gift after all the insanity.
I don’t take candy from strangers.
Seriously. One too many ponies disappeared one Halloween night in Canterlot…
Too many ponies disappeared all the time growing up…
martymcflystranded-deactivated2 asked: Poor planning made me cut it short. I asked Pon3 the question without the Anon mask on.
He (she? i'm confused) published it and i had to rush everything. Next time, i will be sure to do it better. Will probably get someone to help me too.
Well, good luck with it! Though I think ponies will be looking for it now!
ask-gestapony-deactivated201110 asked: Whats the hardest song to play with the lyre for you ?
So far? Spoonman.
Trying to forget about that little failure, though.
typeandprint-deactivated2012012 asked: Yeah… Something’s wrong with that pony… Something way more than he realizes…
___________
Um... Miss Lyra? You, do know I can read, don't you?
Do I look like I care, rich boy?
By the way, you keep ruffling Gilda’s feathers and I’ll have a few more drinks and we’ll see where that leads us.
askdinky-hooves-deactivated2012 asked: is your talent playing the thingy with strings? :ooo
Well, my talent is playing one of the thingies with strings! There’s a whole lot of different types of string insturments.
The one I play is called the lyre!
martymcflystranded-deactivated2 asked: The survey, i had fun working on it. I noticed that some of the ponies were incredibly cruel over rather harmless things. (i believe Typewryter crippled the assailant permanently... over a single cupcake.).
I thought it would probably help others get some perspective as to just how far you really have to go. I really don't know if anyone did, but i certainly learned a lot about everyone here.
Yeah… Something’s wrong with that pony… Something way more than he realizes…
I was a little sad you didn’t ask me what I’d do! But I still think it came out great!
hoppie-glitter asked: h-hello sorry if anyone has mentioned it before (hard to keep up), have you seen the comic First Meet? was posted at Equestria Daily a while ago
No, but I just read through it so far.
Uh… Interesting? I don’t know. It always feels weird to read fanfiction about me, and doubly so when Bon-Bon is in it too.
I’ve never had amnesia, if that’s what your asking. I almost wonder if I’d be better off if I did…
But without the pregnant part.
Anonymous asked: omg haha MuseScore <3
Pfft, whatever…
Meta powers isn’t always right, you know.
Anonymous asked: I've always wondered... do you record your covers (which are amazing, by the way) with actual instruments, or do you use digital instruments in a program like Garageband?
Meta powers and I have conflicting answers…
I play these things on a lyre or my sitar in the unused room in our house. It’s not the best set up, because I can’t, for example, listen to what I’ve got while recording for an overlay or it’ll feedback into the mic while I’m playing.
But meta powers will argue that I use some computer program. But I only use Audacity for minor tweaks to volume.
