Anonymous asked: Who's your favorite Touhou?

Not familiar with the series. I was never very good at manic shooters.

I don’t know. Derpy is a nice mare, great to hang out with, but she’s a little too much of a wild card if ‘things’ got real. I’d pick Carrot Top, if I had a choice. We don’t always see eye-to-eye, but she’s reliable and gets along much better with Bon-bon.

Please refrain from swearing, though. Trying to keep a family-friendly page.

queenfrau asked: Dear Lyra,

I just listened to that piece of music.
Amazing, just amazing, I may require your services in the near future, hehehe.
Just so this isn't a pointless post, where DID you learn to play so, magnificently?

Well, thank you very much! I don’t think it was all that good, though. I had to practice for hours just to play that short piece.

I was taught by Celestia’s caretakers, when it was discovered that I had at least a marginal affinity for music.

I like to post something a bit more than just an answer every night, so here’s one of the pieces I’ll be playing at the party Friday night.

Enjoy!

anon-thelasthuman-deactivated20 asked: Why are you so fascinated with my species? we're really not all that great

You must have me mistaken for the Lyra that knows what “your species” is. I don’t have any great interest in any particular animal. I’m a musician.

Obviously not sure what that means, but it’s a little weirder than it was a few days ago, that’s for sure.

Testing Something

This will be deleted.

It will live on in my reblog.

Delightful!

What I was testing didn’t work anyway.

diamondmint asked: We have an electric violin, I think we can make it work.

Do ya know anyone who can sing? Bon Bon or Twilight or the Princess?

Not sure about Bon-bon; You could ask her.

As for anyone else? No one that I could just ask.

diamondmint asked: Hi Lyra. So we are in the process of forming a band, with Spike on drums, Rainbow Dash on Guitar, Strawberry Sorbet on electric violin, and I'm on bass. You're one of the most talented musical ponies I know, would you maybe be interested in joining us?

I’m flattered! Not sure how much good a lyre player would do in a band, though.

askstarcatcher-deactivated20111 asked: Eh heh... yeah... high place jumping... gotcha...
Oh, and is anypony getting married tomorrow? I have this desperate desire to plan a wedding. Maybe it'll rid me of my blank flank. >_> Yep, out of school and no cutie mark.. *le sigh*

Uh… No… Even if they were I imagine they’d have the wedding planned out months in advance.

If you’re sensitive about it, just wear a dress. No pony will even notice.

askstarcatcher-deactivated20111 asked: Probably not... and now I legitamately feel bad about asking her to do that. I'm coming over to visit with her tomorrow, so if you have any punishments in mind, that would be GREAT.

/ooc: I did seriously feel bad about that. I'm not even joking...

It’s not that big of a deal. A little disgusting, maybe, but I was pretty sure it was just applesauce.

Don’t feel too bad; live and learn! Mostly about not jumping off of high places!

askstarcatcher-deactivated20111 asked: So Bon-Bon tested the applesauce, and it is indeed applesauce.
*huge sigh of relief*

I saw.

Maybe that wasn’t the best way to find out though.

Anonymous asked: how well do you know octavia and vinyl scratch?

Octavia is amazing! I wish I was half as talented as her!

I don’t really know her well, though. Actually, I’m kinda nervous about Bon-bon inviting her to the party Friday night.

I don’t really know DJ Pon3 either. She seems very passionate about music, and I don’t really like techno. I don’t think we’d have much in common.

You mean this?

I was being facetious.

Penguins!

Celles… That penguin came out evil! I guess I kinda drew it too fast.
