Heartstrings—

Re: rehearsing:

I have been provided by the Conservatory with a copious supply of 2-benzhydrylsulfinylacetamide and have not slept in thirty-nine days. This makes my rehearsal regime much more efficient, even after accounting for the time spent chasing away ten-legged shadow ponies before they can steal my instruments.

Re: Ponyville:

I will consider it if I have the time. I almost certainly do not have the time. Really.

Maybe after the Gala.

Re: the inexplicably recurring bane of my existence:

No. Just no.

Re: "hands":

I sincerely doubt there is a grand conspiracy of raccoons and pandas hiding important secrets from you.

The colt may have been interested in your mode of performance. The current fad in Canterlot is to disdain from traditional hoofgrip and mindgrip methods and instead to play strictly mechanistically, whether by hoof or with other aid.

Re: bits:

You still owe me eight thousand four hundred thirty seven bits for the Mareabian cello. Don't think I haven't been keeping track.

This Octavia has a sense of humor only slightly more dry than the Sahara at noon.

Well, it's not that, it's the syntax. It took me a few times before I finally...think I got it.

I can't tell if a colon denotes the switch of a speaker, and before the colon is the subject of whatever they are saying, or some kind of sarcastic name to call the speaker by.

I actually didn't even realize this was them talking to each other, I was really confused the first couple times I read it because I thought it was Lyra writing on her correspodence with Octavia.
