Jim's thoughts...pre-Casino Night.
Post-"Gay Witch Hunt"; Pam's growing up and realizing that if you want something, sometimes you have to fight for it.More Jim and Pam and their adventures in raising baby Jill!
An AU look at what might have happened, had Pam really thought about Jim's decision to go to Australia.This is along the same lines as my other Away From the Cameras, in the sense that I'm exploring scenes that might have happened off-camera (or simply those that we didn't get to see).
A few things: First, I'm working on the assumption that a lot of what I wrote in the AFtC for season II stands (though I likely won't reference any of it here), up until Casino Night. (Clearly I was quite off about what happened after the kiss...heh.)
Second, there will be flashbacks filling in the blanks of what happened immediately after CN (how long did Jim work? how did he and Pam ultimately leave things? how did she end things with Roy? how did Jim find out about her cancelling the wedding?); the flashbacks will happen largely in the chapters pre-merger (to keep things interesting for Jim/Pam fans during their physical separation).
Typical slow days at the office with the Ladies of Dunder Mifflin.
A proposal. Pure fluff. A collection of moments in Jim and Pam's new life together. Because even though we rarely get to see it outside the office, it has to be amazing. (Even if there are some not-so-amazing times.)
General spoilers for S2-S5.
Eight years has passed since Jim and Pam have spoken. Many things have changed in their lives including a little girl that captures their hearts.
One part for each season. Pam's p.o.v. Nothing could be more innocent than a freckle, right?(Chapter 1 )Jim's been feeling like his & Karen's relationship is getting rocky. He looks to his best friend for some laughs.
(Chapter 2) But before he knows it, his relationship with Karen dies, but a spark rekindles with someone else.
S3, set between Traveling Salesman and The Return.Jim returns to Scranton. Spoilers through The Merger.
All kinds of awkwardness.
THINGS ARE HEATING UP!
Imagine if Jim and Pam didn't meet in the office but instead when they were younger. Reunited by the Scranton/Stamford merger with respective fiances in tow will they fall into their old pranking ways? Will Jim fall in love with Pam even though he's engaged? Will Karen be really as into Jim if he's head over heels in love with her? Will Pam go through with the wedding after being reunited with her childhood crush? Stay tuned to find out!
The road to perfection isn't paved in gold.Before, during, after (peas, waffles.) Post-Cocktails...but no fighting.
