As some of you may have noted, I had recently written up a oneshot that immediately hit the top of the feature box. I was not expecting that, it's neat seeing. But this post is actually more or less to say where I am on my main story, An Alien Walks Amongst Us.
Now on page 280 of Bon Bon's story. Looking good so far, but quite a technical challenge as she's been involved in other parts of the Fairlight story arc and I need to be careful tying it all together. I'm also aware that I will need to incorporate Lyra's story into it too.
I've not had much time to write either unfortunately. I've had covid, again, and the constantly changing shifts at work are leaving me exhausted.
I need a new job!

Because this is Lyra Week! Every day I'll be posting something relating to objectively best pony whether it be comics, art, videos or songs! Anything goes as we count down the week until Lyra and Bon-Bon day where, where we can all celebrate our loveable duo by sharing anything and everything relating to Lyra and her love [1]
First up, at Heartstrings intensity Green, a whole bunch of random Lyra pics! Share your own, if there's any I missed!
A long, long time ago, in an obscure story known under an overly-long title Way To Go, Minuette, Way To Go!, I wrote that certain ponies in Ponyville may be special agents in Princess Celestia's secret service...
Well, I was wrong about their identity. But hell, apparently there are special agents in Ponyville after all:
'The hell did these hardcore besties smoke?
You know what amuses me about canon Lyra and Bon Bon?
Two things.
1. Certain key elements of their fanon personalities have been reversed. In most fanon interpretations, Lyra is batshit insane and Bon Bon is the straight mare. In canon, it's the other way around.
2. The whole "our life together is a lie" thing they did? That's every Bon Bon is a Changeling fic EVER. And I love it.
Wow dude it took quite some time to diddle this doo and now I get to write iT, WOOw
OK, so Hasbro has recently given us the gift of a few new Rainbow Rocks songs, including this one called Life is a Runway:
The video shows Rarity using Lyra and Bon Bon as models for a fashion show. Expect this to at least be mentioned in a future chapter of Lyra x Lyra!
Bon Bon and Lyra Heartstrings know each other for a long time and in weekends they always do the best activities. When Twilight told them about Hope Hollow and the Rainbow Festival, it caught their interest to do something different for their relationship, take a trip to a village together. It will be a weekend they will never forget.
OK, so it took a little longer than I expected, but chapter 2 is finished now. I'd quite like some people to pre-read it before I press the "Publish" button, and point out any obvious mistakes.
If you'd like to be one of the first to read it, please add a comment to this blog article. I'll PM the password and link to the first four people.
I've just uploaded some cover art for Lyra x Lyra, and lo and behold the story appeared on FimFiction's popular stories list on the front page. I don't quite know what the criteria for getting listed is, and it's gone now, but that was unexpected.
I have some fun ideas for chapter two, which hopefully won't take me too long to write.
