We all know Jimminy Cricket. The conscience of a little wooden boy with a notoriously long schnoz. What we don't know is; just how did he feel? Watching someone he cared about make a wrong turn in life?
How would he feel being a part of this wrong path?
Explore a new perspective in this modern Pinocchio retelling.

Warning: In the writing process this story somehow got much darker than expected. Trigger warning for gang activity, death threats, and other criminal activities, because I'm paranoid.
Will be rated higher than my previous work.
