Bubble Burst

By The Elusive Cinder

• July 24, 2013




Age: 19

Gender: Female

Species: Earth Pony

Cutie Mark: Exploding bubblegum! It shows her carefree, fun loving lifestyle. It also shows her 'Genius Ditz' side, as she is a gifted engineer who is capable of repairing almost anything, though rarely on purpose.

Personality: Bubbly and excitable: Bubble Burst loves nothing more than to spend time with friends and family. She has trust issues only in the sense that she tends to overly trust even those who she clearly shouldn't.<br /><br />Bubble isn't particularly intelligent, but her natural flawed talents mean that she is actually a fantastically gifted scientist - though she is unable to actually use her talents on purpose: the usually manifest completely by accident.<br /><br />Aside from her special talents however, Bubble is curious to a fault: liable to simply try the simplest solutions to answer her questions without thinking of the consequences. What does that strange, luminous blue liquid taste like? Better taste it!<br /><br />More than anything though, Bubble loves company and simple pleasures: music, nature and sweet foods being high on her list.

Backstory: Bubble Burst leads a simple life: One of two twins who were raised together. While Cinder was the one who thought logically, Bubble never quite 'got' science. While this proved disappointing to her parents, they loved her for who she was and she brought joy into their lives.<br /><br />Everypony knew long before she earned her Mark that Bubbles talent was spreading happiness, but she never saw the mark on her flank.<br /><br />One day, she returned home to find an unfinished project of Cinder's: a machine to allow an Earth Pony to change the weather. It had been abandoned in frustration by her sister. Without having any idea what the machine was, Bubble decided to investigate.<br /><br />Two hours later, Cinder returned to find the machine complete: not only showing 'Sun', 'Wind' and 'Rain' but also 'Volcano' and 'Earthquake'. Bubble had no idea: as far as she was concerned the candy maker just wasn't working. And her Mark had appeared.
