Krastos is up from his nap Lyra.

Thanks! I’m out the door!

On a less preachy note, do you have stairs in your house?
There is one last thing I want to ask/tell you. Why do you accept mediocrity from everything but yourself? Altruism is a good thing, but the way you're going, you might end up becoming a martyr or something.

If that’s the worst case scenario, I at least hope I’m martyred for a good cause.

I don’t really care too much about how other ponies do things, that’s all.

Thanks Lyra! It means a lot! See ya sometime soon!

No problem!

I hope…

Honestly? Better than I have been in a while. I've been working over at Diamond's café, and I'm pretty sure I've got myself booked as an astronomy teacher!

Wow! That’s incredible! That’s your special talent, right? That makes it even better!

Please tell me that there are plans to investigate this shooting. Whoever did this needs to be found and brought to justice.

I heard he died violently.

Hopefully that won’t turn him into some anon martyr worth imitating.

You Sure Love The Dun Dun Da-Dah

It’s like a representation of status. I mean, who the hay trusts someone enough to play the music as you’re walking down the isle?

Hey, gorgeous...how've you been doing? I heard about Krastos...

I’m holding together.

How are things with you?

I'm planning to have the wedding next week, I'm still busy planning everything out. My first choice for music at the wedding was you, so I figured I'd ask.

N-… Next week…?

I’ll… I’ll see what I can do…

Next week… Holy [omitted]…

Well uh, since Octavia and I are going to get married, we were wondering... may I ask if you can play at our wedding? It'd be an honor.

Dun dun da-dah? I’ve always wanted to play dun dun da-dah!

How much time do I have?

lyra, why cant you lie to yourself like a normal pony?

I guess because I’m not a normal pony.

Krastos is currently napping. I think he wore himself out last night and this morning. There is no reason to rush over, take your time and be safe.

Thanks for the update, E!

Let me know when he’s awake, please.

No problem! I wanted to ask you something, but given the circumstances, I don't think the timing is right. I'll ask later. Anyways, I hope everything goes well Lyra.

Depending on what you want to ask, I’d like to think about something else right now.

Also, sounds to me like you need to get whatever's bothering you off your chest. It's not healthy to keep something like this bottled up.

Secrets are how I stayed alive as a foal.

But, for the most part, I already talked about what makes me so apprehensive (Warning: Lots of ponies find these stories sad). Talking about it didn’t help.

Hmm. Want me to help you in any way?

I think I got everything for now.

Thanks, though!
