Hey! A new animation with me and Bon-Bon in it!
Conspiracy Theorist and I get promoted to… ugh…
But hey, this was pretty fun overall!
Wai~t a minute.
Oh [omitted] you guys…
Bon-Bon: Why is there fur on my bed?
Lyra: Because we own a dog.
Bon-Bon: Oh, uh uh! He is not allowed on my bed! Bad! Bad!
Lyra: Don’t scold my dog!
Bon-Bon: I’m not scolding the dog; he doesn’t know better.
Lyra: H-hey!
Bon-Bon: You let that dog on my bed again- I'ma bop you in the nose with this newspaper!
Lyra: Alright! Alright!
1) Lyra: Yeah… My human literature knowledge isn’t all that.
Bon-Bon: Neither is your pony literature knowledge.
2) Not really something you need to announce. Seems like more effort to avoid than to seek.
Also, stop calling me while I’m piloting a helicopter.
3) Granted, I completely understand what you’re doing here. I’m just not sure how long you can keep it going and stay fresh. I do like the doodle avatar, though!
4) You were stabbed?! You were stabbed in Ponyville?! How did this happen?! There’s a shelter in Ponyville!
I… [sigh] I can’t visit you now. I have to get up for work in six hours and I can’t cancel. I shouldn’t even be awake right now. Just… hold on. I’ll be there tomorrow to see you.
I’m not sure if it’s just miscommunication or you’re thinking of something terrible!
Dude, what did you think I meant? Show her how to have a brain hemorrhage? That’s the only thing terrible I can think of.
1) Can’t you… fly?
2) I suppose that’s a difficult question. Ponies are vegetarians, not vegans. We eat and use milk and eggs in our cooking. But the milk is given voluntarily (though some would argue against that) and the eggs are unfertilized. “Nothing living harmed, and nothing harmed living” or at least nothing consumed has ever been alive by any stretch of the definition.
In Vitro meat can’t boast the same. It’s not real meat, but it still involves the use of slaughterhouses to collect the blood used in its production. You might consider it to be more humane (which is itself a silly word), but it’s not solving the problem. Just reducing it.
3) Bon-Bon: Of course I don’t. But it’d be nice.
4) Bon-Bon: Hmph!
5) I suppose it was wrong of me to think, even subconsciously, that I was more attractive than Bon-Bon. I guess that’s not a healthy way of categorizing things.
Bon-Bon: No! You know what? Not done!
Lyra: Bon-Bon, I’m really sorry. I didn’t mean-
Bon-Bon: You see these curls? Ponies love these curls! Ponies adore these curls! Ponies will lose their train of thought and just stare at these curls!
Lyra: They’re very nice and I-
Bon-Bon: You see these baby blues? Ponies get lost in these baby blues! When I bat these eyelashes, ponies melt to the floor!
Lyra: Yes, I’ve always liked your eyes and-
Bon-Bon: You see these hips?
Lyra: Um.
Bon-Bon: Ponies love these hips! These are strong, sturdy hips! You think I got these hips from sitting on my flank all day eating candy? I don’t think so! I sway these hips from left to right and I could bust a door down! Doorbusters! That’s what they call these hips!
Lyra: I um-
Bon-Bon: You see these legs? Do they look wimpy and flabby to you? These legs come from standing all day. Running around. Bending over. Lifting, pulling- working! These are tone, shaped legs! These are the kind of legs mares wish they had!
Lyra: I-
Bon-Bon: So don’t you dare, Lyra! Don’t you dare think I’m not attractive! I am drop-dead gorgeous and don’t you forget it!
[Slam!]
1) I’ve probably seen all but a few minutes of it, but never all at once. And while I’m aware of the movie’s setting, I’d hardly call it a good movie for the holidays.
2) Oh sure. Definitely speed boats. Automobiles? Nah. Magic? Don’t even have that. But speed boats are definitively human.
3) Lyra: You see? You see?! This is what I’m talking about!
Bon-Bon: Oh for Celestia’s sake, get over it.
Lyra: You don’t have this problem! Everypony thinks we’re together so they all know you’re gay!
Bon-Bon: Excuse me? I’m constantly mistaken for being straight!
Lyra: My flank.
Bon-Bon: And what’s that supposed to mean? Stallions constantly hit on me!
Lyra: Ha!
Bon-Bon: Oh! Oh I am so done!
Lyra: Bon-Bon! You can’t- I’m not hit on all the time, so-!
Bon-Bon: So how what, Lyra?
Lyra: I-… That… I’m not saying that!
Bon-Bon: You don’t have to!
Lyra: Bon-Bon! I’m sorry!
Bon-Bon: The nerve!
1) Nothing against it, just not my scene. The shades between rock and metal don’t really do it for me. There are some exceptions. Usually on the side of hard rock.
2) Really? There’s some untold number of Lyras, Bon-Bons, Minuettes, Carrot Tops, et cetera. But you were worried I might get two Dans mixed up? You were probably right. I’m just messing with you.
3) Disappointing. Sort of ruins it.
4) So I noticed. I wouldn’t be so quick to call them a friend, though. They might be nuts.
5) I’m going to explain this very clearly. Stop. You do not want to proceed down this path.
1) Why is that a thing, anyway? Why is that a specific “feel”?
2) B: No. You don’t need to be living out in the middle of nowhere.
3) Oh hey, that’s something I totally want to hear about, being a mare and all. Next you’re gonna tell me teal-maned unicorns were their favorite.
4) Kinda already have one involved.
5) Can’t make any plans yet. Don’t know if I’m working that day or not.
Train station doesn’t close on Hearth’s Warming.
Oh my Celestia! You should draw your human OC with my human OC doing-... I don't know, human stuff! Like... Oh! Like driving a speed boat!
i dont even know what ur human OC loOKS LIKE, YOU NER—…omfg do u mean that re-color of that one actor. i s2g lyra.
no lol, human OC time is over. the joke’s already old, im so sorry.
1) If there’s one thing that’s consistent in all dimensions of all civilizations, it’s a once-a-year sale that makes ponies behave like lunatics.
… No offense, Princess Luna.
2) I do like the sound of Tim Curry’s voice…
3) Lyra: You know, I’ve never really paid attention to the lyrics of the song. They’re not describing a pirate, they’re talking about a sailor.
Bon-Bon: It is a little silly. Pirates are a dangerous sort. Oh, but I’ve just been so busy! Hopefully I’ll get to continuing that story soon!
4) That’s fine. That’s fine that you gave no advanced notice. That you sent this message four hours after everypony had already started gathering.
I’m not mad.
5) Because that’s something perfectly acceptable to say to somepony. “Boy howdy questioning your sexuality sure is a thing you should do!”
I’m fine, thank you.
1) Oh that’s right, dubstep exists. I had forgotten. On an unrelated note I’m now depressed.
Bon-Bon and I are still working through some issues. We got through last night alright at least.
2) Oh my Cels… Oh my God… Where the [omitted] have you been? Why did you suddenly come back?
3) I'ma be straight with ya. You need to talk less about murders during social gatherings. It’s not really appropriate.
4) You’re going to see if you can find B before you try staying at a shelter…
I’ve tried talking to B about it. He says he only knows were you lived back before you started working for the government. And that if you never moved he’s not taking you back there anyway. He also thinks this is an act. I tried to tell you, he doesn’t like you.
5) Bon-Bon: Yes. Thank you, Mike. I managed to piece that together on my own.
Lyra: I said I’m sorry! I was mad!
Bon-Bon: You know, Lyra, some of the most hurtful things anypony has ever said to me have come from you.
Lyra: That? You think that was hurtful?
Bon-Bon: And don’t compare it to how things were for you when you were growing up either.
Lyra: Yeah… Still working through some issues…
Twilight: Oh! Lyra! I wasn’t expecting to see you here!
Lyra: Yeah… I just wanted to come by to thank you again for your help. You know, personally.
Twilight: I was happy to help, of course. But to be honest I’m still a little uneasy about lying. I don’t feel that was the best decision.
Lyra: Bon-Bon’s been talking for years about expanding and hiring some help, but she’d never go through with it. She always thinks she’s looking so far ahead, but really she’s just afraid of the risks. Risks I can take for her. She wants to do it, but she’d never agree to me helping her unless she thought she could pay me back.
Twilight: And you’re sure this was the only way to make that happen?
Lyra: You’ve got your elements of harmony to guide you. But growing up I had a different set of rules to go by. A little lie here can lead to a greater truth down the road.
Twilight: But this isn’t some little white lie. She’s going to eventually find out that there is no government grant. Approximately a year from now, in fact.
Lyra: Hopefully by then it won’t matter…
Can you jitterbug?
is that a dance move?
i only know of the jitterbug song tbh.
you PUT THE BOOM-BOOM INTO MY HEAAARRRTT..!!
The jitterbug is a very very very old dance move that I’m pretty sure went along with a song called the Jitterbug that came out before Wham’s song.
In fact I’m pretty sure the dance and song came out in the 50swell i wasnt even born in the 50’s [redacted].
asklyra why would you think i could jitterbug??
It’s not a dance move, it’s a style of swing dance. You don’t do the jitterbug the same way you don’t do the dance. You jitterbug; you dance.
At it’s core, it’s really just a step rhythm.
Twilight: According to this you work some… sixty hours a week!
Bon-Bon: No, I’m in the shop sixty hours a week. I work much more than that once I’m home. Especially during the busier half of the year.
Lyra: It’s not like you’re really working that entire time.
Bon-Bon: Oh, you mean like you’re not really working when you’re sitting in your little stall doing nothing most of the time? And for half the hours?
Lyra: I am-!
