Fizzypop

Fizzypop loves to blow bubbles as big as she can, but her favorite part is watching them pop!

"On your mark, get set, go!"

Ponies dipped their bubble wands in the soapy solution, and each blew the biggest bubble they could. Fizzypop watched her own bubble as it grew larger and larger, before finally popping into drops of soap. She didn't win the bubble-blowing contest, but she was able to sit back and watch the other large bubbles grow and pop, one by one.

Fizzypop really loved bubbles. She got her cutie mark from blowing bubbles into her milkshakes when she was young. It was a silly story behind the cutie mark, but it fit her. Now, she worked with her parents to make sodas. Fizzy was in charge of the carbonation hose, which added all the bubbles to the soda. They weren't big bubbles, but they felt nice and funny on a pony's tongue.

It was her idea to include a bubble-blowing contest at the Summer Sun celebration. Fillies and colts all loved bubbles, she told the Mayor. It would be a great activity halfway through the day when the kids were falling asleep from being up at sunrise. Even the adults could join in and wake up a bit!

"Wouldn't it be messy when the bubbles pop, though?" Mayor Mare asked.

"Well, sure, but it's just soap," Fizzypop replied. "I can even bring the soap and bubble wands! I've got some with hoof loops on them, so everypony can pick them up!"

The Mayor rubbed her hoof across her chin as she considered this. "Well, I suppose it would be fun...all right, Fizzypop, you've got a deal."

The next Summer Sun celebration, Fizzypop was seated next to an excited Pegasus as they blew bubble after bubble. The foals who didn't want to blow ran around and chased the bubbles, and a sharp-eyed unicorn carefully watched to see whose bubble was the biggest.

Fizzypop lost, but that was okay. She had fun with the bubbles, and she was able to share that fun with everypony in town. She couldn't ask for any more.
