Ask Lyra

I told you that I wanted to hug you all the time to keep you close and try to be great friends with you because you've been through so much that I wanted to try to make you happy. I feel like I've accomplished one of these things. I want the second part to become true.

I’m happy enough with where I am, more or less.

It’s not like my every dream will ever come true, but I’ve got friends and family. That’s enough for now.

Time To Pretend Is My Favorite MGMT Track.

Not linking it for language, but yeah! Good stuff!

Lyra, do you remember what one of the first things i said to you was?

theblackstrawberry

I’d be lying if I said I did.

But I don’t remember the first thing I’ve ever said to anypony.

oh and if you enjoy the general style of modest mouse(which was a bit too much for me at first but now i like it) then i suggest you check out mgmt. (/watch?v=MmZexg8sxyk)(/watch?v=fe4EK4HSPkI)

I’m almost positive I’ve heard Electric Eel before. I really do like that one!

Kids was alright. Not nearly as good, but still fine.

They both got that kinda skating-rink disco vibe to it, and that’s just awesome to hear!

Gilda suggested one too. These are the ones I’ve listened to, in this order.

New Born

Supermassive Black Hole

They seem alright. Little too busy for me a lot of the time. Too much going on.

They’re clearly talented, though. I’d say my favorite of the group would be Hoodoo. Has a certain level of gravity to it.

Actually, I make a point of running in it every year. Also, if I don’t my Bon-Bon will get on my case.

Well, there you go. I guess I’m the only one that watches!

Lazy [omitted] me…

Any awkward moments between you and the other Lyra's when you went to that ceremony at the castle? I couldn't tell which one was you.

Not really. I finally got to speak with Professor Lyra face-to-face, but that’s about it.

Will you be participating in the Running of the Leaves this year?

Anonymous

Probably not. I’m out of shape.

Wouldn’t be surprised if this Lyra, this Lyra, or the Lyra among this group ran, though.

The professor will probably be on the sidelines with me.

Am I missing any Lyra?

You seem to be the type that also enjoys The Foo Fighters. Is this true?

askagentgummy-blog

They’re alright, sure.

I sort of favor acoustic Everlong over something like All My Life. Not that both aren’t fine choices!

so thats a no on the crooked trees, ok. how about music? like muse or modest mouse or something? im not exactly sure where im going with this line of questioning.

garyyo

Don’t put words in my mouth.

Memory serves, I’ve seen some more upbeat, or at least neutral drawings from that handle. When that happens, I am perfectly fine with enjoying them. I hold no grudges over something as minor as artistic taste. I just like to see happy things.

I like Modest Mouse! Float On in particular is one of my favorite songs! (I’m not counting that; I’ll probably use Float On somewhere down the road when asked what my favorite song is.)

Heard of Muse; not necessarily familiar with them. Have anything particularly striking by them you could link me to?

how about artists like crookedtrees and johnjoseco? one of those is my favorite artist! the other one...

garyyo

I like upbeat or silly drawings. The actual skill isn’t nearly as important as the subject matter.

We’ll leave it at that.

scootaloo is an artist, or at least she could be, like she can draw a pretty good map, and singing, she is a great singer! i loved her song at the talent show.

garyyo

She has a lot of promise, yes!

well dont worry about it, i mint nothing by it (hehehe)

garyyo

Oh lawd have mercy!

I really don’t see what the big deal with this mint-esque thing is.

Assuming you mean musical artists, I’m not really the best judge. I just pick songs here and there.

Not sure why you’d mean drawing artists, but if for some reason you did, I suppose so. I’m not much of an artist, though, if you couldn’t tell.

So Tote knows that Discord caused a lot of problems in Ponyville, but specifically, she was wondering what kind of weather happened near Lyra? Did she get hit by any chocolate rain over there? ((Sorry if this has been asked already, but Lyra is good about updating very frequently, so Tote did not see it, nya~!))

totemeister

Well, I live in Ponyville, so yeah.

Chocolate rain, cotton candy clouds, twisters, floating buildings. If there was more, I didn’t see it. I was kinda trapped in a washing machine!

Thanks for the question, though!

In case anypony is wondering, I met Totesumi from a different website.
