Summary: Miss Pamela Beesly is faced with an unexpected choice. (Casino night done regency romance style because, why not? Just a bit of fun, and yes, there's a happy ending.) ""Ah! Halpert, good man. See to her, won't you? Philbin's waiting for me in the card room." Pamela Beesly glared at her betrothed, her face flushing, fingers clenched into the blue fabric of her gown. Surely he would not leave her on this terrace in the middle of their conversation? Mr. Halpert, her dearest friend and neighbor, murmured his acquiescence, and Captain Roy Anderson disappeared back into the ballroom."

Recommenders Comments: I mean... it's Casino Night. But regency romance style. And with a happy ending. Isn't that kind of all the recommendation you need? Here's rooting for Mary to post this here too!

Summary: Oneshot from Katy's POV, mostly during Booze Cruise. 'She thinks maybe she should know what goes on in his head when he’s got that look on his face in the morning.'
Recommended by: darjeelingandcoke
Recommenders Comments: Deep B-Sider from an MTT legend that never made it here. Probably the best Katy POV written in the fandom.

Summary: "She brushes a thumb over the skin of his hand and he’s sure his heart is breaking inside his chest because he can’t do this. And he can’t let her do this. They’re not these people. This, this moment, his hand in hers, this is okay. They can wake up tomorrow, see each other at work on Monday and laugh about too much beer and a dumb moment with a high five that ended poorly. But what goes on beyond that… they are not those people." A story in which Jim innocently invites Pam to his house party and she comes feeling a little upset. But he puts his feelings aside and tells himself that tonight, he’s going to be a good friend. And what do good friends do when their friends are in pain? Help them forget with a little fun and a lot of booze. A one-shot of our favourites in one of many moments they could've slipped up while Pam was with Roy.
Recommended by: darjeelingandcoke
Recommenders Comments: This is a quintessential Season 2 one-shot, featuring all the greatest hits: Pining White Knight Jim, Almost About to Come to Grips With Her Feelings Pam, Jim and Pam Being BFFs and Not Just Secretly in Love, Roy being a jerk and everyone being juuuuuuust a little drunk. Fabulously well-written, very in character.

Summary: Michael and Holly arrive in Boulder, Colorado, to begin their new life together - but it's only as new as their oldest burdens. Stuck between overbearing parents, abusive exes, and new jobs that just don't compare, the two of them struggle to get to their future while enjoying where they are.
Recommended by: Littlekidlover1725
Recommenders Comments: This story is sooooooo good. It’s about Michael and Holly, and this site is severely lacking in stories about everyone’s favorite soupsnakes, especially after they move to Colorado. Almost everything they do in this story makes sense for their established character, and it has some pretty great OCs too. Fair warning, it is 100 chapters, and 200k+ words, but it’s definitely worth reading.

Post-"Casino Night," Pam gets recruited by the Dollhouse. Long after the Call, India runs into an old friend.
Recommended by: NobleLandMermaid
Recommenders Comments: Dollhouse is far from the first fandom you'd imagine an Office crossover with, but the author makes it work perfectly.

Summary: He is standing there limply, the light of the street lamp girding him in orange. She has seen the expression on his face once before. It was one of desolation, of terror, of realizing a great and terrible truth. She wants to leave, but she can't. She can't walk away from that look in his eyes. Not again.
'Phyllis' Wedding' AU.

Recommenders Comments: A very plausible look at Season 3 through Brian the mic guy's point-of-view, love all the little missed glances and the not-quite-right timing between Brian and Pam. And that ending! Right in the grief bone!

Summary: It was just plain fitting that the fire alarm had went off at 3 in the morning, on Pam Beesly's third ever day of college...
Recommended by: NobleLandMermaid
Recommenders Comments: Early seasons retold as a College AU. A fun read, I love the way the author incorporates canon things in different, interesting ways. Takes place in current day (2015-16) so it also shows how changes and advances in text messaging and social media in the last ten years would affect our favorite pair's story (both helping and hindering).

Summary: "The people around you are basically who you end up spending your life with." Brian and Pam's friendship through the years. This fic follows the canon storyline up to 9.15 "Couples Discount."
Recommended by: NobleLandMermaid
Recommenders Comments: Not a ton of Brian fics out there but this is by far the most in-depth one I've found (83k words!). Basically the entire series from Brian's perspective, each of the 9 chapters covering a season. The first two chapters will make you fall in love with the show all over again, also some really nice "off camera" stuff during seasons 3 and 5. Fair warning, this fic doesn't shy away from being rather critical of Jim.
