New concept for anyone interested in writing a rules story Prompt: A long-term employee finds out that with a new boss and change in management, there are now new rules. Now the employee breaking the rules would make even more sense, as him being not only skeptical but defiant.

Honestly it would be really interesting to have a part two of this creepypasta. It was awesome not only because it was a "Rules" creepypasta, which already makes it pretty awesome, but also because it kind of set the stage for something great.

I know a LOT of people have said this already, but I love these “list of rules” stories.

Little confused at the ending. He says he throws a match onto the wooden door... insinuating that it caught on fire. Then he went I to the woods to get more wood for said fire and got caught. But if the library is already beginning to burn why is James saying he won.

[@matthewlaurence3121]

Don’t get it either? He did listen to the wolf in the end. So....happy ending? Need clarification.

[@avogotdo5363]

I’m guessing because it wasn’t fully burnt to the ground so he can easily put it out and get a new door but if you don’t stop talking to Jacob and telling him how he won blah blah blah the library will burn to the ground so maybe you need to get on top of that JAMES
