"Another Strionic Resonator," Lyra said unhappily, dropping the final bunch of cards down on the table with all the others. "That's so useless... What did you get?"
"Hold on," Bon Bon said. "Okay, I got, oh wow..." She looked at the cards she had just extracted from the plastic wrapper. "That one's shiny..."
"Are you kidding me?!" Lyra glanced over Bon Bon's shoulder. "Two mythics in the same booster?!"
"What's that now?"
"Look," Lyra pointed at a little mark on the card, beneath the artwork. "The set mark is a burning reddish orange-y color. That means it's a mythic rare card, they're the rarest and most powerful cards in the game. I bought like thirty boosters without getting one, and you got two of them at once."
"One of them is all shiny too," Bon Bon said happily as Lyra twisted and groaned, angrily running her hooves over her head and the back of her neck. Bon Bon frowned. "What are you doing?"
"Stupid hooves!" Lyra glared at her forehooves.
Bon Bon's face sank into her accustomed exasperated look for these situations. "This is one of those human things again, isn't it?"
"I am trying to tear my mane in frustration! It doesn't work without fingers. I could use magic but it would look stupid."
"I think we're far past that point, dear," Bon Bon said flatly. "This whole game looks pretty much like the nerdiest thing ever. Where did you hear about this anyway?"
"At my weekly obsessive interests support group," Lyra said. "Twilight brought a bunch of her decks and showed them to everyone."
"And you decided to go with it and buy thirty packs of cards at once because...?"
Lyra mumbled something under her breath.
"What was that?"
"...Twilight said I could make a human-themed deck."
I would make a pony themed deck if it was legal.
Hey strionic resonator is a cool card

I was about to start agreeing vehemently... then I saw who the poster was. You've seen me use Strionic Resonator.
Hey don't diss Strionic Resonator!
Is two mythics in a booster pack even possible?

Yup. You can get a regular one, and a foil one by random chance. Seen it happen. To a guy who, like Bon Bon, had never played the game before.
But but but the SHENANIGANS!
3831410 It's even possi8le to get three mythics in a single pack. One 8ecause it's a 8ooster pack, one shiny, and one that's slipped in a lot more r8rely than foils are. 8ecause of this, someone I know effectively got 15 mythics from a single 8ooster, since the three mythics were good, and he managed to tr8de them for ~5 mythics each.

3072523 There was a guy that tried to make a cross over set of cards but both Hasbro and Wizards sued the guy because of how legit looking the cards were
I also have an image of a Pinkie/Pinkamena Planewalker that I want to be real
Ah, Lyra, you never fail to amuse.
