Ask Lyra

like i said, you should be who you want to be. true friends will stick by you even if you change. you should be who you truly are, even if it might sound terrible.

theblackstrawberry

That would all sound very poetic, if it were true.

I’ve seen it first hand. Ponies are your friends because of how you act, not who you are.

I don’t even know if there is such a thing as who you are.

I hope you can make it. We have a small stage for intimate shows, maybe you could play sometime soon. :3

I’ll try and see if I can get something together.

Very well, Miss Lyra.
I have tried to be civil.
I have tried to be kind.
And in return, you hurt my child.
Henceforth, if you ever come within one hundred hoof-steps of my property, you WILL be treated as an invader and trespasser. Farewell, Miss Lyra.
May you someday find some room for kindness in that shriveled black heart of yours.

‘Your child’ isn’t hurt, but there’s plenty damaged about you, nobleman.

Hopefully this will help.

Well, I know ya don't really care for coffee, but ya want a drink? We got our shipment in today, and we are fully stocked. I think I can crack open a few bottles or something before we officially open.

diamondmint

I don’t want to go anywhere… It’s late, my hair looks awful and my eyes are all red and swollen.

I’ll still try to make it for your grand opening, though! I really want to be there for you.

Then be yourself. Don't be afraid to be who you truly are. Don't let any pony judge you for who you are and who you want to be.

theblackstrawberry

That phrase doesn’t mean anything to me. It never has.

If I’m a cold-blooded monster, should I really be myself?

Miss Lyra.
Crystal told me what happened.
You hate me?
Fine. Don't take it out on the child just because I am the only one left to raise her.
It is NOT her fault.
It is mine.

I tried to be as courteous to her as possible. But I don’t want to see or hear from either of you.

Ever.

ask-sweetie-belle replied to your post: How the hay do you do posts replying to replies? You know, where it shows their tiny icon, says “this pony replied this” and then you can respond to it in a post?

Oh gee, thanks. I didn’t know it was that easy! I thought it was a special button or something!

You’re welcome! After that, just open a text post (or any post I guess) and paste it in.

I'm sorry, didn't mean to bring up bad memories.

diamondmint

No one ever does. They just won’t stop anymore. I keep trying to hold them back. I just… I don’t want to remember…

Take your cursor and click the end of the reply message on the dashboard (or tumblelog page). Hold the mouse button down and drag it all the way off the message box over-top of the little avatar image. Once you’ve gone about halfway, the image will be highlighted as well as the text.

Posted publicly in case anypony else was wondering.

Thanks for being the only pony to recognize the art style I used in that one picture haha..

I’m sure others got it too. I might have just been the only one who commented on it.

It was very well done, though! Almost an exact style imitation!

You are... nopony can help be who they are. Kind and heart warming, cold and uncaring, good, evil, every pony is just being the pony they are meant to be even if others disagree....

theblackstrawberry

That’s not true. I wasn’t always like this. I became this way to survive.

Yes. Yes you are. Don't change anything.

diamondmint

I was never cool growing up. It just sort of fell into my lap when I moved here.

It was interesting at first; I don’t know that I like it much anymore. It’s like people cheering me on while I’m beating somepony to death in an arena.

…

Am I still ‘cool’, everypony? Am I still 'awesome’?

…

I’m going to bed…

Crystal: O-okay... But can I still talk to you?

typeandprint-deactivated2012012

Being associated with him, I’d rather you didn’t. You don’t need me, I’m nopony. There are tons of ponies better at what I do than I am.
