Humans exist, right? After all, how couldn't they? The whole world seems to be built with them in mind. Is it too hard to believe they at least existed?Lyra asks herself this question a lot, as she's been utterly devoted to finding the truth for the past few years. When Lyra finds what she believes to be indisputable evidence in the form of a lyre, she becomes determined to prove their existence, no matter how much society (and her roommate) object.This My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic Fanfic by JasonTheHuman has been featured on Equestria Daily and can be found here. There are also two official side stories: the February Write-Off entry Caretakers and the decidedly non-canon April Fools' Day chapter Truth vs. Fiction (a sequel to the author's earlier fic Gurren Jesus).This story now has its own theme song!The story has also been fully adapted into an audio-drama, the first part of which can be found here. | |

Arbitrary Skepticism | |
Anthropology (Fanfic) / int_13eea985 | comment |
Arbitrary Skepticism: In an inversion of what's typical to be skeptical about, Rarity scoffs at Lyra's claim that day and night on Earth change entirely on their own. | |

Chekhov's Gun | |
Anthropology (Fanfic) / int_22cf536c | comment |
Chekhov's Gun: Lyra's interest in Greek culture and history, which she attributes to a half-pegasus heritage. It's actually a further clue to her own Greek heritage on her human father's side, immediately identifiable by the name "Michelakos". Her nickname, Lyra, turns out to be her real name, which convinces Audrey that she's telling the truth about being Thomas' long-lost daughter when she finds out that he did in fact have another daughter named Lyra who was mysteriously kidnapped about sixteen years before the story. It's also the name of a constellation, which is named because it resembles the lyre of Orpheus from Greek mythology The cutie-mark shaped necklace that Lyra receives from Princess Celestia before being sent back to the human world, turned out to be charmed, and when Discord turns Lyra back into a pony, it sends her back to Equestria, allowing her to bring the Elements of Harmony to Earth and stop him. | |

Mythology Gag: Lyra's birthname was Heartstrings, but she was more accustomed to the name Lyra after reading it in a book, a reference to the fact that Lyra's original name in the toyline was Heartstrings, but the fandom demanded that she be renamed Lyra. | |

Mistaken for Spies | |
Anthropology (Fanfic) / int_461038e6 | comment |
Mistaken for Spies: Played for Laughs, when Twilight was asked by Princess Celestia to find out as much about humans as she can, and so naturally goes to the human-obsessed Lyra for help. However, this was just after Princess Luna gets angry at Lyra for the mere mention of humans, and assumes Twilight's there to find out how much she knows and eliminate her. This goes into insane and hilarious levels of paranoia, even after Twilight's intent is proven genuine. The implication is that Twilight is acting as an Unwitting Pawn to Celestia in order to spy on Lyra, which could make her Properly Paranoid. Which turns out to be true. | |

She also notes the second time that it seems like she's one of the only ones who had ever heard of humans, even though there seem to be a fair number, though only a few that know they actually exist. | |

All Girls Like Ponies: Chloe, Lyra's human little sister, is deep in what her father calls the unicorn phase. Lyra bonds with her by telling her stories about Equestria, disguising them as stories Lyra made up, though after Discord shows up she tells Chloe the truth. She gets along well with Fluttershy, who was her favourite pony in the stories. In the finale, she mentions to Bon-Bon that she's thinking of asking Celestia to bring Chloe over to visit Equestria as a Christmas present. | |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: If Lyra hadn't been so interested in humans, Discord probably never would've found Earth. Naturally, he takes great pleasure in pointing this out to her. Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: If Discord hadn't turned Lyra back into a unicorn, she wouldn't have been able to use Celestia's enchantment to return to Equestria, contact the Mane Six and bring them and the Elements of Harmony to Earth. And the elements were of use, though not as expected... | |

Anthropology (Fanfic) / int_82464731 | comment |
Humanity's Wake: Although long-extinct in Equestria, human society and inventions greatly influenced pony society — almost every tool and device used by ponies was first developed by humans, and consequently Equestrian society is filled with things that don't make sense for horses to use (such as round doorknobs, or string instruments almost impossible to play without fingers) that exist as holdovers from the previous human culture. | |

Trans Nature: In a way. Although it is clear that she wanted to become human despite not knowing they had gone extinct in Equestria and not knowing she was one from another universe, later on, she starts having dreams of turning into an unicorn again and started showing signs of being homesick. No one knows for certain, but there is the possibility that part of her wanted to stay a unicorn and remain living in Equestria. | |

Deconstruction | |
Anthropology (Fanfic) / int_8ae880f7 | comment |
Deconstruction: The story deconstructs the popular Fanon interpretation of Lyra having a fixation on humans. It's by no means dark, but it shows that no matter how benign Lyra's behavior and beliefs are, they are nevertheless still deemed inappropriate in Equestrian society, to the point of becoming an increasingly more severe point of contention with her roommate. Lyra becomes paranoid, believing that pony's ignorance of humanity is all a government conspiracy. Though she does turn out to be right. | |

And another comes in chapter 27: The Mane 6 arrive in New York to defeat Discord. He's just as surprised as they are when the Elements of Harmony fail to petrify him again. | |

"Not So Different" Remark | |
Anthropology (Fanfic) / int_984ef9ef | comment |
Nopony believes Lyra, about anything she says. Not even Twilight, the one pony who would actually listen to her, who actually has any inclination to for inquisitive fact finding. Lyra appropriately throws this back in Twilight's face when she recounts how nopony believed Twilight about Nightmare Moon. | |

Humans Are Cthulhu | |
Anthropology (Fanfic) / int_98c2a8f2 | comment |
Humans Are Cthulhu: Humans are thought of as a silly myth when they're thought of at all, but several ponies have distinctly negative impressions of them — Luna recalls them as foul, chaotic creatures best forgotten, while the stories Pinkie heard of them describe them as monstrous, flesh-eating monsters who at sheep and cows and ponies (all sapient species in Equestria). Towards the end of the story, when the main cast comes to Earth, the ponies find it bizarre, alien and confusing, although Pinkie is somewhat nonplussed at the others not panicking about being close to humans. | |

Intrigued by Humanity | |
Anthropology (Fanfic) / int_9a08c9a6 | comment |
Intrigued by Humanity: Lyra obviously, and more or less the main plot point of the story. The first part the story shows the consequences of believing in a creature that has not been proven to exist, and adopting their habits: namely the skepticism of her peers (and the frustration of Bon Bon) and the fear that the government is hiding the fact that they exist. Her obsession is attributed to the fact they she was in fact born a human. | |

Deliberate Values Dissonance | |
Anthropology (Fanfic) / int_aabe2fb | comment |
Deliberate Values Dissonance: Lyra is saddened and horrified by humanity's history of conflict and to a lesser extent their consumption of meat the former she learns about through studies in the human world, the latter from eating a Big Mac while her human friends tend to be nonchalant about it. Also Lyra mentioning being on her own since she was 12 (due to pony aging standards) shocks Audrey, a human girl who is still considered a minor, and is slightly put off by her eating a plant. This trope abounds as Lyra struggles to adapt in the human world. | |

Dramatic Irony | |
Anthropology (Fanfic) / int_ab5eea65 | comment |
Dramatic Irony: Played for Laughs, when Bon-Bon receives Lyra's letter that she won't be returning home, while offering rent for nearly 6 months. Bon-Bon is overjoyed that Lyra got over her human obsession and found a musical career that pays so well. Of course, Lyra was just turned into a human. When the Mane Six arrive in New York, Applejack speculates that Discord has already done a number on the place when they see the cityscape, and is baffled when Lyra tells her what she sees is perfectly normal. Consequentially, when they get separated, the cast is hopelessly lost because they can't tell what's normal and what isn't. For bonus irony, Discord is showing surprising restraint compared to his antics from his prior appearance in Ponyville. | |

Shout-Out: When Lyra first meets Nathan, he's wearing a shirt with the word Aperture on it. Audrey and Nathan both make references to The Legend of Zelda when they find out that Lyra plays the lyre. After telling Monica his theory that Lyra is a time traveler, he comments that she acts like someone out of a movie. Specifically, a Tim Burton movie, if the "quirky outsider played by Johnny Depp was a teenage girl instead". Chapter 29 contains a reference to Tay Zonday's popular song Chocolate Rain. | |

Lyra appropriately throws this back in Twilight's face when she recounts how nopony believed Twilight about Nightmare Moon. It is Played for Drama when Lyra ends up in the human world. She knows that most people wouldn't believe her past, and struggles to find a good cover story. When she tells Audrey the truth about her, Audrey loses a lot of her faith in Lyra, who can't even tell the truth to her human family, and pretends to be amnesiac... up until Discord turns her back into a pony. | |

Fictional Age of Majority | |
Anthropology (Fanfic) / int_d5c229d1 | comment |
Fictional Age of Majority: Ponies naturally mature at a faster pace than humans, and reach their age of majority much earlier — Lyra left home at age twelve, which is stated to be a normal time for this to happen, and at sixteen years old she's well into maturity. This causes some severe misunderstandings once she is turned into a human and moves to Earth, as she doesn't realize what human growth patterns are like and ends up leading her new friends into thinking that she's a runaway whose parents kicked her out as a child. | |
