Happy Anniversary, you outlived both of my past lives. Glad ur still havin fun tho! ;p
I know you’re not dead, Bbz. And I saw Fluttershy like 4 hours ago when half the town gathered to prank the bejesus out of Rainbow Dash (incidentally, while disguised as zombies).
You still owe me like 10 bits! I haven’t forgotten!
Hello, and congratulations for being on Tumblr for five years and still going strong. I loved your blog ever since I found it so this is why I feel like I should give you this as a token of my appreciation, thanks for everything and keep on blogging.
Also if you ever want to request me to do something either with my normal artwork or with flash puppets then please do not hesitate, thanks and hope you have an enjoyable party!
Lyra: Hey thanks! I don’t know about going strong, but I’m not done here yet!
Tootsie: Can I dye my hooves like that?!
Bon-Bon: No.
The other ones are still going to be a while, but here’s the first of five tracks celebrating my five year Tumblrversary!
I’ve been watching the Megaman section of Ninsheetmusic for years waiting for a Megaman X sheet I liked and they finally added one! This was an amazing arrangement that still had room for a little bit of my own creativity!
Missed my Tumblrversary again! Last Friday was 5 years!
At least this time I had already started working on something to post. Can’t say when it’ll be done, but I hope soon.
Alright! A little late this year, but here we are! Four messages this time, including one that will be posted alone.
1) Run. Get out of Canterlot. Never look back.
2) Ordinarily my answer would be along the lines of, “I’d sooner shove his face in dirt.” But since I’m not supposed to deflect…
The thought of Bbz kissing me is… terrifying. Without getting into information I’m pretty sure you don’t care about, I’m… afraid of kissing somepony and them forcing their tongue into my mouth. I have nightmares sometimes… So no. Even if I liked him I’d be too scared.
And just so we’re clear when you see this Bbz, if you ever, ever use this information against me, our friendship is through. Got it?
3) Of course I love Bon-Bon. She’s my best friend. She’s my family.
If you’re asking if we’ve ever been in a romantic relationship, no. If you’re asking if we’ve ever had sex, no.
Okay, same deal as last year. These were the asks, there’s only two, but they’re pretty good. Sorry I don’t have more than this for the occasion.
1) Well… I don’t like to talk about it much because I know it sounds so crazy, but… See, I think your human Earth is the same planet as ours. I think this whole internet/ponynet connection thing has created some form of message time travel. I don’t know which of us comes first, but clearly something must have happened that stops humans and us from ever meeting.If we came first, there must have been some kind of mass extinction. But wouldn’t humans have found a trace of us by now? And what about the sun and moon? On the other hoof, if humans came first where’s the evidence they should have left behind? Even if all the buildings are gone, where’s the subways- the landfills. Shouldn’t the atmosphere be littered with satellites?
I know it sounds like I’m arguing both for and against my own point here, but I’m just… I have this feeling something terrible is going to happen to one of us…
2) B pretty much covered that before. In fact, you were the one that asked about it! I was breaking into somepony’s house and he busted me.
That doesn’t exactly explain how we became friends, though. I guess I could try to cover that…
B: Try as in, dance around the subject? I thought the whole point of this was for you to tell it straight.
Alright, fine [omitted]. B caught me more than once. I [omitted] hated his smug [omitted]. Twice in a week? That kinda doesn’t work for me. So I begged and pleaded like I usually would in that case. Only… he took me up on the offer… And then again. Then things got weird…
B: Continuously catching and releasing a criminal based on a bribe isn’t exactly legal. So I changed the deal.
That was when I started to learn about how I could use amplification and manipulation for self-defense. B taught me. We sort of bonded over that experience. Eventually we stopped. We were never in any sort of real relationship, though.
It wound up saving my life. And, less than two years ago, I used it to save Krastos’ life.
Look! It’s me! Boxing Lyra!
I made this battle pose to go with this music track as part of my one year tumblrversary!
I didn’t get to bed till 5 in the morning because I was working on this drawing. I know it’s not that great, but I’m pretty proud of it! I only had a picture of a human boxer to reference the pose, so I did the best I could with my mind’s eye.
Yes, the animation is weak, but it just didn’t look right as a single frame. Boxers don’t stand still!
As I’m sitting here typing this up. The thought occurred to me that it sort of looks like a pokemon sprite. What do you think (question mark)?
This is easily the longest I’ve ever spent on a track, but I wanted to make sure it was special for the one year anniversary. The only sheet music I had to go by was a Mario Paint arrangement that was useful only as a starting point. Nearly everything you hear is my best attempt to match the original by ear.
This took twenty plus hours easy. I recognize that it won’t be for everypony, but I really like the way this came out. There were a lot of subtle instruments that I usually skip or are unable to pick up on that I made sure were adequately represented here. It all comes together great and I hope you enjoy it!
Thanks for my first full year on tumblr!
And here’s a question mark so you can leave a message if you want?
I started a sort-of contest, and this post contains the results. Originally I was going to only do one. But since I only had five entries I decided to do all of them.
This is a heavy note. Three of the five are fairly standard stuff. Admittedly I probably would misdirect them or turn them into jokes, but the questions and answers contain nothing you wouldn’t ordinarily see here.
However, the last two are of a mature nature. One of which extremely so. You’ll find that one after the break below. If you want to skip it, I promise you you will lose nothing for doing so. Again, do not click past the page break unless you’re willing to read material of a mature, adult nature.
The other I’m turning into a storytime post. That will come later tonight.
1) When I was younger, I wanted to be anywhere but Canterlot. But I was afraid to leave. I knew about Ponyville being relatively close, but I was afraid of it. My life back then was horrifying, but I quickly learned the worst of it. To leave presented the most terrifying thing I could think of, the unknown. I didn’t know if worse things existed, but that unknown possibility forced me to stay. Even if it wasn’t where I belonged, I didn’t know anything else.
Present day, I’ve been across most of Equestria, but it was all so fast. It’s not so much places I haven’t been as it is places I’d like to spend more time at. Fillydelphia seemed like a great place to live and, even though I’m afraid of heights, Cloudsdale is an absolutely beautiful city with a breathtaking view.
2) I’d probably be depressed that I was never able to make amends for the terrible things I did in the past. Even though I know I’ll never be able to, I guess deep down a part of me still wishes there was a way.
Honestly though, unless I’m crippled there’s too much to do in an hour to sit around and mope. I wouldn’t think a thing about the past unless I physically couldn’t move or communicate with anypony else. Too many loose ends to tie up before I go.
3) I don’t think you can lyra a saxophone at all, let alone while doing any of the rest of the things you listed. And I’d love to collaborate with Octavia for a musical project! Vinyl’s interest don’t usually mesh with mine, but I wouldn’t be against working with Ms. Pon3 so long as it’s not dubstep or techno. To that end, I think she and I could so something with a psychedelic or progressive rock slant.
Picking the “Tell:” to use and I’ll have a post for that soon. Music post will be after that and then I stayed up till 5 last night finishing that drawing I said I didn’t have enough time for! So that will be posted after the music.
Happy Tumblrversary for me to you!
1) Yes! Of course! Come on down!
2) No. Touchie.
3) Today is fine! One year tumblrversary and I’m playing my old copy of Alien Hominid!
4) I don’t enjoy hoofing them out. Just necessary sometimes.
5) You know I do. That’s why I broke into your house last night and stole your vast collection.
I mean, oh boy. That took like eight or nine trips, four dozen ten gig flashdrives. Man. You must really love smut.
Gay smut.
6) And he loves to eat cocaine! Because cocaine is vitamins for Anon Soap!
8) Thanks for the reminder! I don’t think I’ve ever heard of a Free Shelter Day, though. Sounds like something I could have used growing up.
9) Yes. Sometimes I wish I had a blood-related family.
10) Unicorns are dumb. Unicorns are too good for bears. Bears are too good for unicorns. Krastos is too good for you. You’re too good for Krastos.
Can’t we just meet in the middle and agree that we deserve each other?
