NOTE: Owlowiscious does not appear in the story, sorry. Owls, however, do. Owls and nothing more.

A birthday present for Lisali

BonBon has planned something special for her very special some----owl Lyra.

This is what happens when you promise to write a birthday story for someone who loves Lyra and owls.

Lyra and Bon Bon: foster parents? It'll happen, if they can only get past their sardonic caseworker, nerve-wracking inspections, and each others' neuroses. That's assuming things work out with any one of the children that passes through their home. After all of that, there's just the matter of the adoption and the birth relatives. Hugs, heartbreak, and humor will follow in droves.

Also, Lyra tries to cook soup.

Cover made by the wonderful Whipstitch.

Applejack tells the Cutie Mark Crusaders about how Lyra and Bon-Bon first met and got their cutie marks.

No sex, no eroticism, just cuteness. Written for the /co/ Valentine's Day ship off way back in 2011.

Lyra Heartstrings, lyrist and involuntary part-timer at her marefriend's candy shop, likes to escape her work into a nearby small forest which was once part of the Everfree Forest. There, oblivious to her surroundings, she plays her lyre ... and the forest listens. A mystical audience.

Finally with cover art - drawn by a good, good friend

Feel free to comment and criticise

The first chapter is not actually part of the story but rather a type of personal signature
First story on ponies and first I have published for other readers than my friends and only third story written in English

As with any couple, Lyra and Bon Bon experience problems and have disagreements. Be it past marefriends or financial distress, the pair must confide within one another to save both each other, and themselves. Theoretically, love conquers all, but love alone doesn't put bits on the table.

Awesome fan music written by psp7master can be found here!
Beautiful art drawn by Bakki can be found here!

At last, the weekend! A time of rest, relaxation and preparation. Lyra and Bon-Bon spend a day enjoying each other's company, remembering exactly why they make such an excellent couple. (No humans, no hands, just 100% cute LyraBon. Huge thanks to Leaflock for modifying the cover art!)

Review by Undead_Wanderer

When a debt-collection company sends a representative to collect on Lyra's parents' debts, they don't care that her parents have been missing for years - the debt is legally hers. If she can't pay up, she'll lose her house.

In order to pay the debt, Lyra devises a plan that simply can not fail - she'll convert her home into an item shop and sell her way to riches! Surely Bon Bon will help, too. What could possibly go wrong?
