“Does marriage really matter? Unless you’re a slave to the standards put in place by society, it’s only good for tax write-offs.

If you love somepony, just hang out with them. Talk with them. No need to risk a divorce. And if it doesn’t hurt somepony else, who cares what anypony else thinks, right?

But still, Twilight can be found here.”

I hate you…

It’s not the first time some anon came to my page by mistake while looking for yours.

Anonymous asked: Can i see your plot?

Again?

Even if I could draw with any real accuracy, I wouldn’t want to draw my own behind. That’s just… I don’t even know what.

Anonymous asked: will you marry me?

typeandprint-deactivated2012012 asked: Not exactly.
You are right on the books.
The money is not physicaly there.
The money comes from the fact that, even if you don't count the books, you could throw a pebble in my home and it would land on an ancient, priceless artifact that I found in ruins around the world.
As for orphanages, I make a yearly donation to every existing hospital and orphanage in Equestria under a false name. I will not disclose how much I donate, because that would ruin the point of the fake name. The point is, Miss Lyra, I do good, but I do not need or want recognition. The good I do is reward enough.
But yes, I could effectively fund a small country for about ten years entirely on what I possess.

There are only two orphanages in Equestria. I know, because I’ve volunteered to both of them. There isn’t even one in Canterlot, let alone Ponyville. The good you do, the one that’s reward enough? Isn’t enough.

Think Celestia Scootaloo almost died, so that we could at least find out she has no where to go every night.

ASK GILDA ANYTHING!(AS LONG AS YOU'RE COOL ENOUGH): I AM HEARTBROKEN!!!!!! -

Well, no playing da dan da-da for me.

typeandprint-deactivated2012012 asked: I 'am' some history buff.
Each and every book is one that I aquired through trial, tribulation, and the risk of life and limb. They are ancient historical Texts, Spellbooks, maps, cookbooks, potionguides, etc.
All have historical value. and 1/3 of my collection is a gift from the princess because I am a licensed branch of the Royal Historical Archives.

And two thirds of those are just… yours? Just sitting about with all this money. Enough to furnish an entire five story tower one and a half soccer fields in diameter without a problem? That’s what you said, right? Expense is not a problem?

Your sitting on enough money to start your own small country! More importantly, enough to make and fund an orphanage in every major town in all of Equestria for the next thirty years!

Is that what you’re saying, or am I misunderstanding something?

Math time

Okay, Type, lets say your house is five hundred feet in diameter and five stories high, and only the outside walls were book shelves that held three books vertically. Even if each book was a feet (or would that be foot?) wide, you’d have over fourteen thousand books.

There are libraries in Canterlot that don’t have that many books! What are you doing with all those books?!

typeandprint-deactivated2012012 asked: My home is wide as one and a half soccer fields end to end.
Five stories.
Every single wall is a bookshelf.

That’s… great?

If all of your walls are bookshelves, do you just put chairs and lights in the middle of the rooms? That probably looks… strange… I mean, wouldn’t every room just look the same?

Did you inherit such a strange place to live? I’d sell that thing and move somewhere more domestic. Probably make a killing off of some history buff.

diamondmint asked: That spell I cast on myself the other day that turned me into a human, it just wore off. I'm still trying to stand up without falling over and see straight at the same time. But it was fun.

Eh… Sounds disorienting.
