>You rush to the front of Canterlot Castle, ready to get the package you were waiting for.
>It was going to be here this morning, and you couldn't be more excited to finally rip it open.
>About a week ago you had purchased a camera through the mail, and it wasn't cheap, either.
>Interestingly enough, you had found the mail-in slip in what was essentially the pony version of Cosmo.
>You swore to Celestia you read it for the stories, and not for the pictures of pretty mares.
>Arriving at the front gates of the castle, you found the mailpony arguing with a guard about a package he had to deliver.
>The guard wanted to send him away, since he wasn't here to deliver anything to either of the princesses, so he thought it was a joke.
>You stepped next to the guard and calmly took the package from the mail pony.
>"Thank you! See," he chided the guard, "this WAS a package for here!"
>The guard grunted.
>"Of course, how could I forget Anonymous?"
>After signing a paper and confirming your purchase, you ran back inside the castle giddy as could be, your new camera packaged in between your hands.
>However, because you were so focused on the package, you didn't notice when you ran into something, sending you and whoever you bumped into to the ground.
>You rubbed your head to numb the pain as you realized the package could have been damaged in the crash.
>You quickly get on your knees and search for the package on the ground in front of you.
>Your search is interrupted when you hear someone clear their throat.
>"Would this be what you're looking for Anonymous?"
>You gaze upwards to see Princess Luna, your package encased in her magic.
>Crisis averted.
>You nod at her question as you hold your hands out to receive your package from her.
>"Hmph, you really should watch where you're going," she scolds as she hands the package back to you.
>Unfortunately, you find that the small package has been torn slightly, and you gasp at the thought of your camera being broken by the accident.
>You rip open the package completely, only to find your camera safely protected by tons of bubble wrap.
>Crisis averted. Again.
>"Is whatever it is you're carrying fine, Anonymous?" Luna asks, rubbing her snout, which was likely where you ran into her.
>You nod again, and show her your product completely encased in bubble wrap.
>She lifts an eyebrow at the sight of the protective material.
>"Pray tell, what is this odd, plastic wrapping?"
>You explain to the blue alicorn what bubble wrap is and what it does.
>She doesn't seem too interested though, as she eyes the bubbles themselves.
>"Anonymous, may I see that 'bubble wrap'?"
>You give her a confused look, but oblige her request.
>She slowly takes the wrap with her magic, her eyes growing large as she brings it closer to her face.
>"Intriguing..." her voice trails off.
>The level of interest the moon princess has with this bubble wrap has you feeling uncomfortable.
>Before you can leave her to be enamored with the plastic wrap, however, you hear a small *pop!*.
>You look to Luna as she popped one of the bubbles.
>And her face suddenly sprouted a large grin.
>*pop!*
>The princess begins giggling as she attacks the bubbles on the package with her magic.
>*pop!*
>*pop!*
>*popopopopopopopop!*
>Her giggling becomes full blown laughter as she continues her assault on the defenseless packaging material.
>"Anonymous, this is fun!"
>*popopopopopop!*
>"This feels like a game to see how many of these small, plastic bubbles I can pop!"
>*popopopop!*
>You smile at her finding joy in popping bubble wrap, remembering yourself how fun it was when you were a kid.
>"Ah, wait, I know how to pop them all quickly!"
>The wrap, still held in her magic, floats down to her hooves and wraps itself around them, the two sheets firmly held by her magic.
>She lifts her forehooves to get the wrap secured under them, then sets them down.
>*popopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopop!*
>"This is quite fun! These bubbles are no match for me!" she shouts triumphantly.
>You decide to join her, grabbing another sheet of bubble wrap around the camera and setting to work squeezing the bubbles in between your thumbs.
>Every pop is a satisfying victory for both you and Luna, the alicorn still stepping on the wrap to get the most bubbles popped.
>Eventually, though, you and the princess both find that the wrap has completely run out of bubbles to pop, leaving nothing but destroyed plastic.
>She turns to look at you, a desperate glint in her eye.
>"Anonymous, how do we obtain more?"
>You tell her that it only comes through the mail, and that she would need to buy things through the mail to get more.
>She grins.
>"If that is all it takes, then it shall be done!"
>She rushes off to parts unknown, leaving you alone in the hallway.
>You weren't sure what insane idea was brewing in her head, and it worried you.
>Deciding it wasn't important now, you picked up your camera and headed off to your room to set it up, taking the strewn about plastic with you.
 
>The next day, you awoke after a nice sleep, and prepared yourself for the day.
>You grabbed your camera, now ready for action, and left your room.
>What met you outside made you jump back.
>Thousands of cardboard boxes and paper packages, ripped open with bubble wrap hanging out of them.
>Luna sat atop the monstrous pile, popping more of the wrap.
>She noticed you as you stared up at Boxtopia in awe.
>"Greetings, fair Anonymous! Join us, for the fun has been BUBBLED!"
>She sets away popping more bubble wrap, a large grin on her face.
>What a way to start your day.
