iamonlykidding-deactivated20150 asked: Why does everypony call your instrument a lyra? It's a lyre, you're Lyra!

Anonymous asked: Why do I have erotic dreams about you? ;_;

… I couldn’t say…

Not that that isn’t flattering, in the creepiest way possible…

Maybe you should keep things like that to yourself. Or if you’re really disturbed by it, maybe speak with a therapist.

TL;DR, I can play the harp and sitar a little as well.

Her best jokes usually aren’t funny at first.

I mean, comedy is nice, but is it always the right answer?

Anonymous asked: I drew a picture of the Weather Channel thing. From behind the couch, of course.

So you drew a picture of blue upholstery?

askstarcatcher-deactivated20111 asked: You don't have to respond to this, but I just thought I should let you know that I have laughed 15 minutes collectively over that "making passionate love on the couch while listening to the weather channel" line. *Brohoof*

askspitfire-deactivated20120128 asked: Hey Lyra whats up?

Spitfire, I’m so~ sorry for the late response.

I’m alright. Getting tired of practicing the same three pieces over and over again, but you gotta do what you gotta do.

And thank you again for letting me into the V.I.P section at the Grand Galloping Gala again this year. It’s always such a tremendous help in finding work. I really appreciate your friendship, and I’m sorry I have so little to offer in return.
