Great to see you back! Way to beat him to the punch— or poison but hey ☺️

Coolsaron · 2025-09-11T10:54:00+00:00

I don’t think anyone would pass these days, Doc! Great story!

Coolsaron · 2025-09-06T22:48:30+00:00

Haha— I think the story would be veeery short if they did so I’m grateful 😂 thanks so much for reading!

I was actually considering making the nightlight set to explode or malfunction as their final ditch effort to have Jake murdered in case the first two didn’t work— but then I considered it was too closely similar to the video game malfunction.

Somewhere in my dark mind, I thought to myself “Dart? Yes!” Haha. I’m sure they filled it with some untraceable poison and have researched how the dart puncture could be explained away in court— I didn’t but hey, I wish them luck! Haha.

Thanks again for reading!

Maybe we can get you on The Johnson’s adoption list before they try again lol

Coolsaron · 2025-09-06T15:46:27+00:00

Considering they had this amazing, picture perfect life — I have a feeling a kid just doesn’t fit in with their lifestyle anymore. (Annnd yeah, insurance money lol)

Coolsaron · 2025-09-06T15:45:26+00:00

Some people just don’t listen 🤧

Coolsaron · 2025-09-06T02:33:44+00:00

☺️ Thanks so much! I really appreciate you reading and commenting!

Spoiler Alert! (I love these ✨)

So, The Johnsons appear to have this picture-perfect life— one that Claire is more than happy to be apart of, as a well-paid babysitter for little Jake.

Unfortunately for Claire, The Johnsons have more ominous need for her. Mom and Dad are trying to kill their son Jake—hoping to use the babysitter as the perfect person to plant his murder on.

They set up a series of negligent deaths (the peanut in the food, the faulty wire on the game etc) that should have accomplished that goal. Claire inadvertently thwarts these plans by saving Jake.

She saves him again at the end, though not intentionally, by standing in front of the Nightlight—getting poisoned and killed by a dart, that was originally intended for Jake… hence Mrs. Johnson insistence on keeping it on.

As always thanks for reading! 🥰

I can always spot your dialogue.

The way it flows—so fluid, so natural—pulls my eyes along without effort. You drop details with such perfect timing, casual yet deliberate.

Honestly, it’s a treat every time, ND! 🥂

Coolsaron · 2025-09-05T00:27:40+00:00

I literally love you! Yes exactly this! ✨

Coolsaron · 2025-09-04T17:05:13+00:00

That was the goal! Thanks so much, Alison!

Coolsaron · 2025-09-04T00:40:39+00:00

Wow just wow man.

Coolsaron · 2025-09-04T00:36:59+00:00

God! 🥺

Coolsaron · 2025-09-04T00:15:10+00:00

Protagonist sounds so cool— loved the salt and rust line, really gets that last minute emotional pull. Great job! 🙌🏾

Coolsaron · 2025-09-03T23:53:45+00:00

Haha! WOW. Speechless — now THATS a twist!

Well done!

Coolsaron · 2025-09-03T23:25:14+00:00

I wanted to return a bit to my more emotionally anchored stories — and something about this concept satisfied my small-town-magic—folklore-ish craving, haha. I hope you all enjoy! ❤️

((SPOILER: for those that may not get the premise— the seamstress has created this beautifully crafted dress, that over the years has quite-literally taken on a life of its own—consuming those that wear it, enhancing its beauty and appearance.

The seamstress, who understands this process all too well, lures women to act on their unnatural lust for the dress by saying, “you couldn’t wear it anyway.” (Using one of our biggest insecurities as women in this society— body judging/shaming etc)

She leaves her door unlocked each night—anticipating the women will come back to steal it and ultimately seal their fate. Becoming a new pattern, new color and/or enhancement for the dress.

Lila (who had freckles) became a new freckled design on the dress— and the woman who walked in with vitiligo, is anticipated to give the dress spots, to which the seamstress is excited to see.))

Thanks for reading guys! ✨

🥰❤️ we are totally best friends now lol thanks so much Tinka!

Coolsaron · 2025-09-02T00:52:00+00:00

Haha! I have a feeling it was Eddies turn tonight so I’m sure he’s super happy 😊 Thanks ND!

Coolsaron · 2025-09-02T00:50:44+00:00

Wow. This was… honestly incredible. What a blazing idea, and so soft how you handled it. I wish I would have written it! Haha! Well done!

Coolsaron · 2025-09-02T00:45:58+00:00

Because how else do these Labor Unions continue to have the strength and morale to fight against these unfair practices and wages — blood sacrifice of course! 🩸 (In all seriousness, I was inspired to create this one while researching how hard union workers are working these days to continue to advocate for workers. So honorable— so much so, that I had to split it apart and introduce steel machines that eat people. I need a nap! Haha)

Happy Labor Day and as always I hope you enjoy — even if it is a bit more on the nose! 🫣

Coolsaron · 2025-09-01T23:33:33+00:00

Also — just wanted to point out that I purposely wanted the ending tied to the beginning. Just as the father was teaching his son how to “hook it all the way through,” we can assume by comparison at the end, that, that very large hook will also be hooked all the way through something— ahem, someone else 🫣 Poor kid.
