You probably don't know him.

While attending an audience-participation show in Canterlot, Lyra and Bon Bon take part in a game in which newly married ponies see how well they know each other.

A newlywed game, if you will.

Cute story and well written.

This was me throughout the entire story.:rainbowlaugh: Great shit.

I love it!

Claps slowly Good stuff

So.....the love-making of Lyra and Bon-Bon is rough like dragons rutting in lava.

I cannot be the only one who heard Bob Eubank's voice reading Slick Banter's lines...right?

This was fun!

Brilliant.
A lot of fun and the game on stage was well thought out.
I felt sorry for the bickering new couple but hey, Lyra and Bon Bon were pretty epic and I like how the accepted answer for the last one was essentially Lyra knowing that Bon Bon would give a non answer.

As her husband put the card down, Split Second gave him a kiss on the cheek.

Wasn't that meant to be Swift Tempo? I don't recall seeing a Split Second anywhere else in the story. Other than that, I'm really impressed with the overall premise of the story; it's quite a nice change to have it centring around a game show of sorts, and I like your choice of Lyra and Bonbon as contestants.

Ah, crud. Split Second was originally her name until I realized that I was confusing even myself with two minor characters whose initials were S.S.

I've made the change. Thanks!

There are certain... 'kinds' of stories. If you read enough, at some point or another, quite a few stories start to feel 'same-y', if you know what I mean. There are the 'confessing your feelings'-stories, the 'asking to get married'-stories, the 'first heavy argument'-stories and so on. That's... not a bad thing at all, don't get me wrong. These stories are the solid, reliable backbone of the 'feel good'-section.
And then, there are stories like this one, with a setting so weirdly unique, that they break the mold and any attempt to compare them to other works. This was a really, really interesting setting. And on top of that, sickeningly sweet and adorable in a believable way.
Thank you!

"Weirdly unique and sickeningly sweet" is a more accurate description of this story than I could have come up with. And "adorable in a believable way" is a wonderful compliment.

Thanks!

Lyrabon isn't my favorite ship but it's also by far not at the end of my list. I've especially enjoyed your Lyrabon stories and this one is a little but interesting addition.
I like the little thing you did with the 2 rounds of questions: the first round is from a different perspective than the second round. That made it much more interesting. The questions are well thought out and also the host is spot on.
The characters of the other two pairs are also well chosen. One for a serious competitor an one for funny disagreements xD .
Very well done. Actually I'm baffled that your stories aren't that well known.

Thank you for the kind words. At this point, I've accepted that there's a limited audience for most of my stories. But I'm okay with that, because they're still being enjoyed by people who like that kind of story to begin with.

That was so cute. I realize Bob Eubanks was the host of the tv show, but I couldn’t get Richard Dawson’s voice out of my head.

That's a valid interpretation. Slick Banter was meant to be more of an amalgam of stereotypically slightly smarmy game show hosts of the '70s rather than one specific personality.
