Karen pays a little more attention during ‘The Merger’
(Please note: despite my terrible description above, this is JAM-centric)
High School Pam meets High School Jim and that becomes an opportunity for learning a few things.
Usual disclaimers: Don't own anything you recognise and, of course, not profit is being made.
The only thought fixed in his mind is how easy he and Pam have landed into that comforting, exciting place of banter and pranks and how he never ever wants to leave it again.
Pam is jinxed and Jim knows he has to take this chance.
Set during season 3.
The documentary crew is about to start filming but they need an actress undercover, to make things a little interesting. Pam wants the long term job, only it'll prove much harder than she thought, especially in terms of not getting involved with the subjects.
Pam relives a single day over and over again--what can she do to break the loop? We all know, but when will she figure it out?
Inspired by Groundhog Day (of course) and the two fics based on that movie on this archive already, House Call by time4moxie and especially Second Chances: The Booze Cruise by GreenFish (though that one is Jim POV).
“We’re friends,” she says, and it is the only true thing she can bear to admit in this moment. The only true thing she thinks he could hear without being lost to her forever. “We’ll always be friends.”
Response to 'The Apartment' challenge. Set immediately after the events of 'The Merger' (S3), Jim changes his relationship status and moves into the apartment across the hallway from Pam.
“W-why did you call…me?”...Toby paused, “well…it’s-it’s Pam. And uh-um…well you’re…you’re her emergency contact, Jim.” Season 3 AU of cocktails and it’s aftermath
Meeting in an unusual place in life, a broken Jim and Pam try their best to put the pieces of their lives back together while not falling apart and back down the hole that they're trying to help one another out of.
Based on the song "How Not To" by Dan + Shay, because do I *ever* write something that *isn't* based on a song?
“Are you free for dinner tonight?”
“Yes.” Her reply is immediate, eager, completely certain. He sees her, truly sees her, sees her eyes taking him in and her hands clenched in her lap and her hair the same way it has been every day that he has known her.
“Then it’s a date.” It is the most important thing in the world that he clarifies this last piece of information, that she knows what she is getting into. He is almost prepared to hear her recant, to take back her single syllable and tuck it away for someone else. But she doesn’t.
Dear friends, may I present a short collection of events taking place during and after the events depicted in ‘The Job’ (S3) detailing Jim’s break-up with Karen and his first date with Pam. Get excited for some angsty monologuing from Jim, some indignant Karen and some super fluffy adorable first-date non-canon content.
If the film crew can call Pam and Jim out on their relationship in “Fun Run”, this doesn’t completely suspend disbelief… An AU take on “Back From Vacation,” wherein Jim receives some insight from an unlikely source.
Answers the question that no one asked - what if Michael unwittingly got the cocktail party cancelled and Jim ended up in the bar with his co-workers?
'Cocktails' with a twist.
It's the kind of reckless that should send them running, but they know they won't get far.
She's known him most of her life, but this summer Pam sees Jim in a completely different way.
This story started out being a one-shot inspired by the Taylor Swift song Gorgeous, but then it became so much more. Thanks to Coley for reading and giving feedback.
Pam and Jim meet right before Jim starts at Dunder-Mifflin. Pam develops a crush on Jim and has to figure out what to do about it.
The road stretches before him and threatens to swallow him whole.
A response to the 55 Words To Leave Scranton challenge.
