Ask Lyra

Would you being the Element of Deception make you Applejack's mortal enemy then?

Anonymous

I don’t think so.

If I somehow embodied such a concept, to remain in harmony I’d have to use it appropriately, right?

It’s a differing tactic, and yes, it conflicts at it’s core. But only if used incorrectly. The same can be said with honesty. Even Applejack has secrets.

Yeah, in retrospect it seems lik the kid probably has some sort of emotional issue he needs to sort out, so I suppose me calling him a jerk comes off as callous, but I hope things can get sorted out. Also I was trying to think of an original Element to file you under, so I hope you can forgive the cop out one I thunk up.

Considering everything I’ve done in my life, the element of deception would probably work best.

And that’s not some self-loathing garbage either. We all have to lie a little, to ourselves and others, to spare their feelings, or get through the day.

It’ll never be a popular opinion, because it’s so easy to take things too far. But deception is just as important to harmony as honesty.

All things in balance.

Oh Lyra, Maybe If You Didn’t Check Your Phone So Much You Wouldn’t Fall Over So Often.

In too much of a bind to focus on a retort. Gotta make sure Sweetie is okay.

Tripped and fell. I think I twisted my ankle.

Sent Sweetie a message, haven’t got anything back.

I’m still coming… Celles this hurts…

Maybe if I can get my mind off the pain…

Lyra, can you come over to Rarity's shop and get help me get to the hospital? I was looking for Sweetie Belle, and she took off. And then I think I broke my leg. I dunno where Rarity is.

I’m out the door!

Retrogressively?

Well sure.

Turn a problem into a simple misunderstanding before it ever became a problem to begin with.

It makes more sense in practice.

The fact that you've taken Sweetie under your wing like this makes you a candidate for the Element of Caring in my book Lyra. Hopefully you can help her deal with this jerk at school, nobody should be afraid to go to school.

I think I know how a few ways to handle this. For the most part, it sounds like a misunderstanding. Or rather, it can retrogressively become a simple misunderstanding.

But thanks. Though I think caring falls under kindness.

I think that anon is trying to say that when you posted “ This track isn’t bad either. Still sort of upbeat for a final confrontation.”, the link goes to this: http://asklyra.tumblr.com/watch?v=wSHabIYpKdE

Oh.

My bad.

Sorry, fixed now!

Thanks for letting me know, Jeff!

So.. That Sea Pony Lyra.... What are you going to do about her? She seems to have found her way to Ponyville (And once into Bon Bon's cooking pot). x.X Shouldn't release her back into the sea, where she belongs?

I’m sure in the next picture she’ll show up somewhere else just in time to drop the punchline to a joke.

That this track link was Tumblr with the /watch whatever.

… W-what?

I don’t understand what you’re trying to say.

Well I’m on my way back with Basil..After calming him down of course.

Okay.

Sweetie, I’ll make it up to you about breakfast. And maybe we can talk later about the other stuff that happened, okay?

Heading back home. Cels I’m tired…

rarityreplies replied to your post: Hey Lyra. Have you seen Sweetie Belle or heard anything from her?

Everything is fine! And Diamond why are you inside my boutique!!

So you’re there? She’s okay?

Hey Lyra. Have you seen Sweetie Belle or heard anything from her? I at Rarity's boutique, all the lights are of, and it smells like her cat has a conniption. I don't think Sweetie Belle is here, I have been calling to her, but I'm not getting an answer. And there are a bunch of open cat food cans. Let me know, -Mint

Oh no…

I’m already on my way.

Running now.

Why does this artist keep drawing this?!

So you don't like the soot 'em ups huh. Thats ok, Touhou has fighting games as well. Namely Hisoutensoku (12.3) ans Scarlet Weather Rhapsody (10.5). here is a video as an example: /watch?v=jIi-S9AMQKI (note this is a vid with a set of spell cards, which are equivalent to specials, the actuall game has a lot more fighting). Also, the fighters have good music too such as this one as final boss battle: /watch?v=wSHabIYpKdE (song is Unknown X ~ Unfound Adventure)

rustic-ghost

Huh.

I mean, I don’t like fighting games either, but no I had no idea it was a fighting game too! That’s kinda neat!

This track isn’t bad either. Still sort of upbeat for a final confrontation.
