2016 AskLyra Game Awards!
Alright, no fanfare. Here we go!
Thanks! You should just do a “Top Games” list, where you just list the games you’ve played this year that you liked.
Two other games I almost put on my list were Steamworld Heist (Turn-based 2D Strategy Game) and The Metronomicon (Rhythm-based RPG), but I don’t have nearly as many hours in those games to justify putting them above the others in my top 5.
asklyra replied to your post : Sound’s Top 5 Games of 2016
I’d do a top 5, but I don’t think I’ve played 5 different games this year. I remember playing the original Harvest Moon a lot. I like your list! And it wasn’t that long.
Okay! I’ll get something together in a few days!
In the mean time, Happy New Year!
Lyra: A decorating party… Whoever heard of a decorating party?
Bon-Bon: Lyra…
Lyra: I come to a party to socialize, eat, and have fun. Not to work.
Bon-Bon: Lyra, why do you always do this?
Lyra: Do what? Complain about something stupid?
Bon-Bon: Complain about something when you had fun. You were laughing, and smiling, and having fun. The decorating was fun! All those things you came for you did while helping somepony decorate that massive foyer she inherited. You got to help somepony and enjoy yourself at the same time! What more could anypony ask for on Hearth’s Warming Eve?
Lyra: … Nothing… Though technically, it is after midnight.
Bon-Bon: Happy Hearth’s Warming, Lyra
Lyra: Happy Hearth’s Warming, Bon-Bon.
One of my favorite spells in fantasy settings are the Dancing Lights cantrip.
Dancing Lights can be used for all sorts of things, like impressing your girl friend with shiny Christmas magic lights.
Bon-Bon: Why can’t you do anything like that?
Lyra: Oh, I can do somethin’ like that.
[Boof!]
Bon-Bon: Ah! My eyes!
We won! Ya~y!
And here’s a picture of the main team!
Raindrops and B (not pictured) carried us through much of the early game. Blues (not pictured) and Vinyl did a lot of heavy lifting in the mid-game. Blossomforth and I were invaluable in the endgame. And Octavia maintained a strong presence throughout and participated in the most operations.
But overall MVP (and team leader) was Bon-Bon! She had a rough start and a number of early injuries, but by the last mission her accuracy was unparalleled. Her crack shots were the entire reason we won!
man i could go for some upgamers
whats upgamers
WELCOME TO MY MINECRAFT VIDEO
Lyra: -ahaha~! H-hey Bon-Bon!
Bon-Bon: SHUT up Lyra!
Lyra: AH HAHAHAHAHA~!
Okay, so I made a post months back about making a Ponyville/Tumblr squad in XCom 2 whenever I got it (and I tried to reblog the post earlier but the image was illegible).
Well, here we are! This is just Ponyville folks and some randoms from the game, but if anyone wants to join the team let me know!
Lyra: Funny you should ask. Because!
Lyra: We just got a letter! We just got a letter! We just got a letter! But-it’s-clearly-marked-so-we-already-know-who-it’s-from.
[Paper ripping]
Lyra: Look! It’s a letter from our friends! Mostly.
Bon-Bon: Mostly?! That’s a letter from Princess Twilight!
Lyra: I’m just kidding! Mostly. We’re invited to a Hearth’s Warming party at Twilight’s Palace! There will be food and decorations-
Bon-Bon: Actually, that says decorating.
Lyra: I’m sure it’s just a typo. So yeah! That was pretty cool. Not a bad day!
#179.5 - A family of Mareep, Flaaffy, and Ampharos is colloquially known as a rainbow flock, due to the range of colors this Pokemon goes through as it evolves. Maturing Mareep can easily be picked from its younger companions due to the gradual loss of their wool, as well as their change of skin color; however, the sphere at the end of its tail will not change color until it is near to completing its evolution. Mareep generate static electricity as their wool rubs together, and as they age and begin to store and more and more electricity, they will begin to develop patches with even downy wool won’t grown.
#180.5 - Flaaffy have rubbery, electricity-resistant skin that keeps them from being shocked by the electricity stored in their own wool. As Flaaffy get older, the mane-like arrangement of wool covering their upper body continues to recede, revealing an additional orb on its forehead that was actually present, but smaller, when they were Mareep. As they continue to lose wool from generating too much electricity, they will begin to generate and store electricity in their orbs instead; their tail orb in particular can shine extremely bright. At this point in their evolution, they no longer ever walk around on four legs.
#181 Mega - Ampharos are capable of Mega evolving once they have finished maturing, as long as their trainer possesses the Key Stone, Ampharosite, and a powerful bond with the Pokemon. As Ampharos Mega Evolve, their electrical power is amped up considerably, causing their dormant wool gene to be reactivated, and their heads and tails to grow luxurious white fur. To store the abundance of electricity, they sprout additional orbs on their tail, which will glow once they have been fully charged with electricity. Mega Ampharos actually generate so much raw energy that they gain the Dragon type upon Mega Evolving, often throwing off unaware opponents.

Best Mega. Best Dragon.
1) That’s alright. Seems like a trend. Or the opposite of a trend.
There is nothing about this that doesn’t sound fantastic. This is like a page out of some ancient history text book!
I want to read this novel. I want Bon-Bon and I to read this novel.
2) Hey me again chris! It’s I, Once-More Lyra!
You know, I couldn’t help but notice most of our conversations are you saying hello to me through the messaging system or telling me its your birthday or that you had a good/bad day at work.
Got anything interesting going on? Any projects? Play any games? Marathon any shows?
I made a fish!
Someday, I’ll grow up to

#241 Baby - Miltank calves are able to stand up and walk on their four legs soon after hatching; however, they have to build up their strength by drinking their mother’s nutritious milk before they are able to stand on their hind legs. Their small horn buds will show within a few days of hatching, and their growth serves as a good measurement of a Miltank maturity. Likewise, their darker fur patches will darken to black with age. Miltank will naturally begin to produce a small amount of milk once they have matured, but they will produce a much greater amount – over five gallons a day! – once they have produced their first egg. The sweet milk is packed with nutrition, and is beloved by humans and Pokemon alike.
This baby Miltank was commissioned (thank you!).
