Ask Lyra

Jul 18

weeklypony-blog asked: So what is your conclusive stand about neighing?

I don’t know, I thought the door slamming was pretty conclusive.

Anonymous asked: Blues called. He wants your body.

Well, that’s just about the cruelest thing anypony’s ever said to me.

Congratulations.

Anonymous asked: Bon-Bon told me not to ask you this, but have you ever walker in on her doing things nopony should see?

Your grammar was more stable when you asked this last time.

Anonymous asked: Have you ever walked in on anything embarrassing?

Embarrassing for who?

It’s all about perspective.

ask-big-mac-deactivated20111025 asked: Thanks for the compliment Lyra! Y'all should stop by sometime yourself! We'd love to have a unicorn like ya'self visit, we don't get many of your type!

Well, Fluttershy and I spent the night there with Applejack a few days ago. It was supposed to be a sleepover, but I think I passed out pretty early off.

I’ll see if I can’t drop by sometime tomorrow!

typeandprint-deactivated2012012 asked: OOC:
You actually play the lyre?
Awesome

Well of course I play the lyre, brony! I am a musician after all!

Meta powers on the other hand doesn’t. It’s just a figment of my ability-to-break-the-forth-wall. It doesn’t do anything but crack wise.

Anonymous asked: What do you use to make your music? It's lovely!

One of my lyres, and occasionally my sitar, of course!

… What…?

No I’m not telling them that!

… Okay fine!

Meta powers says I use some ‘program’ called MuseScore to place notes on a 'magical music sheet’, but that’s a load of bunk! I work my flank off rehearsing these pieces for hours before recording them!

Edit: …

Meta powers adds that it takes around one to two hours to keep up with this tumblr thing and work on about thirty seconds of a piece at the same time.

Cud! I gotta wait another hour before I can upload another recording! I really like the way this one came out too!

functionalgames-deactivated2011 asked: I think I will stick with non-monadic unit methods, because keeping it simple. Many thanks Lyra, stay awesome!

You’re welcome!

I think!

functionalgames-deactivated2011 asked: I thought you could give me a push into a good direction as I am doubting myself and you seem always to confident and overly awesome...

And I will! Just as soon as I know what the hay you’re talking about.

Anonymous asked: I don't get these questions about nieghing, Can you explain it to me, miss Lywa?

You see, little one, when a comedian and a crowd love each other very much, they banter about things that don’t mean anything as though they really do because misdirection is funny.

functionalgames-deactivated2011 asked: Say, Lyra, do you say it would make sense to make a monad class for a drawing object or is it more useful to just use methods without monadic transforms? Scala context, that is.

Uh… You’re dropping vocabulary terms on me…

Pony Search says something about computer coding? Explain it a bit.

Anonymous asked: I really like your hair! :3
Any tips on how I can get some cool hair like your's?

Well, it does take a little work.

For one thing, don’t ever blow-dry your hair. Let it air-dry while you brush it.

I use just a touch of gel to get my bangs to hang.

My hair is icy blue and white, but my hair color naturally blends, so I have it highlighted once a month at the edges when I go to the saloon, to make it pop more.

Obviously, you don’t have to have those colors, but you will want ones that don’t contrasts too much. That is, unless you want to look like a punk rocker.
