Ask Lyra

Should I randomly get my brother to ask you questions mysteriously from my account, even though they've never used it before and really wouldn't have a reason to talk to you?

patchoulol

Uh…

Other than that doesn’t sound random or mysterious, knock yourself out!

Or selves out… Not entirely sure..

Okay, I think I have answered the question of why you are a pony. You are a pony because you have hooves. It's so obvious, when you think about it.

But cows have hooves.

I saw that Applejack has a truck and Pinkie Pie has a train. So, here's my question: How do ponies drive vehicles?

Pinkie Pie has a train?

I mean, I knew about Applejack’s truck. And her strange cutout of Twilight…

But I hadn’t heard anything about Pinkie Pie owning a train!

Edit: Oh, but about your question, they teach you to keep both hooves on the wheel at 10 and 2, right?

Why are you a pony?

That’s a good question.

Let me know if you come up with an answer.

Sounds to me like you’ve already had a bud or five too many.

Do you know why Rarity looks so much like a marshmellow?

She doesn’t look any different than anypony else. Most of us have identical body-builds.

She’s just white.

Is it a coincidence that your name is very similar to your instrument, and special talent?

Bu-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du!

There’s a dog trapped in your guitar!

Print: Oh, sorry about that XD Just thought it was pretty interesting, I’ve never met a pony who played an instrument before…. I mean, Type can play harmonica, but…. you know. So, how are you?^^

I’m still getting over being sick, with a shatter hoof, while talking to the brother of the guy I don’t like, who I’ve never heard mentioned before. Personally, if I were you, I’d be insulted by that last part.

Though, if you want to talk to somepony who can play an instrument, they’re all over Canterlot. Even ones who can play the lyre.

Print: Not particularly. I just wanted to come and say hello^^ I've been.... indisposed.... for two years,and I'd like to meet everypony^^ I hear you play the lyre?

typeandprint-deactivated2012012

Yeah.

Seems to be the way most conversations start with me.

"Hello, wanna join the green pony club?"

askpinklestia

Nah.

Not much for clubs.

Let me know if you form a cosh! Much more convenient.

"I'm very sorry to hear about your leg, Lyra; if only it could've been the horn, am I right? Ahaha! All, erm, jokes aside, I thought maybe a nice little question would cheer you up! So, what do you do on rainy days or when you're sick/injured? Are there things that you like to actually catch up on/brush up on when you're not all over the place looking for work? What like?"

exclamationpointman

Video games, mostly.

Was too sick to really practice music, much.

Leg won’t stop me from working, though. I intend to get back to it Monday.

Print: Hi there. You're Lyra, right? Type told me you probably wouldn't want to speak with me, but I just think it's rude not to at least introduce myself. I'm Printer Press, Typewryter's older brother^^ You can just call me Print, though.

typeandprint-deactivated2012012

Never mentioned a brother.

Hello. Can I help you with something?

So do you worship Celestia or meta powers? You can only choose one, after all!

Princess Celestia, of course.

How are things going with Sweetie?

Things are going alright.

Wish I could send a soda with her to school, though, to help her stay awake.

How is your leg doing?

Anonymous

It sprouted wings and flew away.

Still shattered.
