Canon-divergent, lyrics inspired, plot-bunny directed, get Jim back to Scranton fic set in early season 3 where Michael makes a yearbook, Pam makes a phone call, and Jim makes a decision.
Five times throughout the later years that Jim and Pam were reminded of how they started.
Five years ago Pam left everything she knew behind for a life of adventure in Europe. Now she’s back and so much has changed. Can she overcome her past demons and find happiness, or is it just not meant to be?
Like many high school sweethearts, Jim Halpert and Pam Beesly were sure nothing could ever break them up. And, like many high school sweethearts, life after graduation proved too much for their relationship to bear and they ended up going their separate ways. When their paths cross again 10 years later, old feelings are stirred up, but will Pam and Jim have a second chance at first love?
1 [Reviews - 4] Basically, a Karen story. But I kind of like Karen sometimes… so, yeah.
Michael makes a toast at the party, raising his plastic cup of cream soda. "To lovers," he says. "In all forms and all colors. No judging here. No sir, not on this day of all days, when we celebrate the power…of <i>love</i>."
A series of emails from Karen Filippelli to her unnamed friend. Starts with Beach Games and will continue through Branch Wars, so spoilers for everything in between.
1 [Reviews - 2] Five memorable X-Files MotW meet five Dunder Mifflin Employees.
I added a violence/injury warning even though it's nothing graphic...just creepy. If you can watch The X-Files, you can read this.
Office spoilers for The Fight (insanely minor, but just in case)
X-Files Spoilers for Pusher/Kitsunegari, Irresistible, Tooms/Squeeze, The Host and Post-Modern Prometheus.
Rated T because I was watching The X-Files when I was 12 and I could handle it, fool!
4 [Reviews - 6] 17 [Reviews - 55] 8 [Reviews - 17] The title is self-explanatory and these are in no particular order. Mostly just one-shots that popped into my head.
Member's Choice - “My father died, so I’ll need a few days.” She explained in an unaffected sounding voice that surprised even herself. The three other parties in the room were stunned into silence. Jim spoke first. “Jesus, Pam…” She stood with her back to him and addressed Michael as if Jim had not made a sound…as if Jim did not exist. It was the only way.
The title explains it all...
MEMBER'S CHOICE - "Here’s the thing Jim, sometimes being in love means doing things you don’t want to do for the other person. For you, right now, it means just being her friend. And I think you’re selling yourself short, you are strong enough to do this."
Jim gets some much needed advice about Pam and a little push in the right direction from Mark's girlfriend Jane. Spoilers through the Negotiation.My first attempt at a 5 things fic.
