This is from Karen's point of view - my attempt at getting into her head and fleshing out just what's going on there. (Perhaps I should clarify that this is decidedly not a Crazy!Karen fic.)

And while it's obviously centered on Karen, Jim and Pam are very much in the background.

It'll ultimately be a two-parter, probably no more than that. Seriously. I mean it this time.

Pam deals with her sadness over Jim's relationship with Karen, while Jim tries to figure out why things are so awkward with Pam.  And Karen confronts Jim about his feelings. Spoilers through Ben Franklin.

When you tell me your plan, a giggle laced through your words, I have to work hard to concentrate...

A companion piece to the parking lot had an element of danger. Title taken from "Lion's Mane" by Iron & Wine. Spoilers through The Return.

A five things prompt that inspired me. Spoilers up to Traveling Salesmen, to be safe.

My very own requisite, post-"Cocktails" fight/angst/smut fest.

I apologize to everyone who's tired of the FIGHT!ness of all these post-Cocktails stories, but I promise it's worth it. I hope. I also apologize to everyone who has already read this through Livejournal, but it took me a long time to get this site to work for me.

Disclaimer: I own none of these characters, I do not profit off of them, and no infringement is intended.

Now that he's with Jan, there's so much Michael's learned about love.  He feels obligated to spread the word.  Set sometime Season 3-ish but not specific.
