Talon and Thorn


T

Lyra's moving away to University and Bon Bon knows what that means, the two of them should split up, long distance relationships just don't work. Lyra disagrees, can she convince her marefriend that things will work out?

A story about Lyra's last day in Ponyville and first day in Canterlot and what Bon Bon was doing at the same time.

Set in the Lunaverse.

Thanks to Grass and Clouds2 and Rainbowdoubledash for their pre-reading and comments.

Note that some two chapters cover the same events from different POV's

Well we know Lyra, Bon Bon and Cheerilee had a one time thing they found weird.

But actually... ooops!

And now fixed.

Finally the underrated characters that you hardly see, I enjoyed reading this.

Lyra and Bon Bon are two of my favorites

Hmmmm. This is obviously set before the start of canon events. I'll read later when there's more to chew on.

Should be forelegs, not forearms, in the first sentence, but other than that it's a great start!

Hmmm...magical dragon fire snapdragons...

Actually either is correct. Forearms would just make it a pretty tight hug since the forearm on a horse is visually what would be the upper arm of a human.

It's been awhile since I wrote Lyra to any great extent...gonna have to remember to keep her fairly spontaneous when I get around to The Glass Kingdom.

It didn’t look very far on the map but in person it had been much, much further and most of it up a steep gradient

As Baron Max would one day learn...

How does she know my name?

I wonder how many Night Guards get a kick out of being able to do this.

She was broken out of her revelry

I think you mean "reverie."

“This may need a little more investigation,”

"Please don't kill me..."

Aww, both writing a letter at the same time...:heart:

she’s not met before

she'd, I think.

Enjoying this look into the past.

Is that blue unicorn that claims to have won the ‘yard of ale’ race against Frederick by any chance Trixie?

Or should I say Lulamoon? We know Trixie in the present is a heavy drinker and the Bourbon sounds to much like her. :twilightsheepish:

Aww, those two are so sweet together! :D

Another good chapter. Ah, asparagus/chocolate hybrid. Yeah, that's Honeydew alright. :p

Aww. :) Two proud papas seeing their little Lyra off.

Very awesome Honeydew, there. :D She loves her Bonnie. She just doesn't know how to say she does.

And now it's time to meet fellow students/future Lunaverse cast members. :D

Good for Bonbon, there! Skeevy asshole.

Aww, writing right to Bonnie. Twu luv!

Good friggin' lord this is too cute. I hope this gets full-canon status, because it more than deserves it.

Yep, that was one of my cameo's, the others are Nocturne (Scootaloo's mum) as one of the guards and Kibitz and Confidant from Mountain.

Yeah I see Honey as having difficulty communicating with most other ponies outside of her very specific field even her daughter despite her inheriting her obsessiveness just about something else.

It would be inconsistent with canon for it to be Trixie. Her somewhat overly indulgent drinking habits are something she's only supposed to have acquired AFTER moving to Ponyville.

Really? She did pick them up very quickly then as she went full Lulamoon on her first night there and apparently had before. Plus she was plastered for her first trip to Oaton. I think Ponyville might have driven her to drink but that she was always rather prone to the booze before.

Lyra Heartstrings calls her fathers Pops or Dads, but her mother Skyla. I almost get the impression that she does not think about her mother as her mother, but some distant relative.

5575324

Well although she knows her mother she isn't in regular contact with her where as her fathers have raised her so yes she's not close to her. Thinking of her as a distant relation is probably to closest thing to their relationship.

Also, she was so drunk the 1st time she was in Oaton tnat she does not remember it and she has no idea how she melted the IcePalace because she was drunk at the time.

“No! No, Bon Bon, I love you! There’ll never be another pony for me, ever! Not even if Princess Luna herself offered herself up to me. I’d say nope, I’m Bonnie’s girl!” She drew the earth pony closer to her. “Although a threesome might not be out of the question.”

“I said Sit Down ,” she snarled, “ Now! ” Pinchers legs dropped away beneath him. “Good, now if you will look at the reports I brought you will see that my sweets have in fact been on sell (sale) in Ponyville for the last three years at my father’s shop.” She forcefully shoved the papers in front of his snout.
