Lyra has had to work a great deal in the pursuit of the elusive human, and the constant need for repairing her interdimentional devices and other contraptions has forced her to work all the harder. Being something close to a 'national weirdo' doesn't help much, either, and has only served to make the job market all the more tough. Fortunately, Lyra always has a plan. Having found a decent job in Canterlot, she has managed to earn at least more than two coins to rub together.
Everything seemed to be going according to plan...and actually it really was. Seriously, things were pretty swell. However, while absence can make the heart grow fonder, distance may also breed suspicion, and Bon Bon has been pretty frazzly lately. To help alleviate any concerns, Lyra has tried to arrive home on time as much as she can, but on one magical day everything seems to stack against her...
Among a series of events both pleasant and suckfest-tastic, Lyra finds that a particular pink pony's portentous pastry is pretty peculiar. No, not that cookie, The other cookie. The OTHER COOKIE. Alright, nevermind, I tried...
But what mysteries could this cookie hold? What kind of preternatural powers could it possess? What sort of strange madness could such a simple confect provide? Well, if you read this, you may very well find out.
that title, it's epic!
This is going to get featured.
the picture for this was all the incentive I needed

If it was fun for ya, that's what matters
Weird? Maybe...but only as weird as it is good

I feel I may end up being a bit sporadic, which I will try to avoid, but I'm definitely going to be fighting between procrastination and the daily grind at times. Also, thank you for the no-pressure thing. I don't want to disappoint anyone or keep them waiting, definitely, but I do want to work at a comfortable pace. Sorry if that's a bit too long. 
I'm hoping to keep a regular pace for releasing things, and once a week does sound pretty good. I'm not sure though, because I'm debating on doing one or two more short stories or jumping into doing a big one I've been preparing for a while in my head and as notes. I could probably still release things at that rate, but I was considering dumping it in chunks or halves if possible. I have no idea

I may end up doing some mix of the two
That's true, I suppose
