Princess Celestia has asked Twilight to write a letter, 1,000 words long. She accidentally sends it at 999 words. Twilight, being Twilight, naturally freaks out.

Kind of a slightly meta story about anxiety and paranoia about following instructions to the letter. Heavily inspired by the episode Lesson Zero (season 2, episode 3) and real anxiety about this sort of thing.

Rumble has always had his eyes set out for Scootaloo, but he never had the guts to tell anypony. Not even Thunderlane, his brother. However, Scootaloo almost runs into him on her scooter one special day, and that's when the feeling of love begins.

My first shot at a shippingfic or whatever you wanna call it, and an attempt at a story with no dialogue. :)

Also, this is a story with 1,000 words! I never thought could do that.
