On all the days of Christmas, Jim's true love gave to him...the gift of pranking
For the 2022 Holiday Fic Challenge.
Secret Santa fic present for a very lovely lady <3
It's Jim's first Christmas party in Athleap.
Pam decides to give him a hard time.
For the 2022 Holiday Fic Challenge (Let us all pretend time has frozen and it is still December 25)
The real meaning of Pam finding her voice with help from someone special.
Covers selective mutism and anxiety.
Was originally posted as A Picture Is Worth More Than A Thousand Words then I deleted it by accident!
Pam is initially anxious, nervous and timid but will grow in confidence. Jim is confident and self-assured but will show lovely vulnerability.
If ethical non-monogamy isn't your thing, move along. This is our JAM love with a 'love affairs and relationships look different from the outside' twist. Lots of smut for the sake of pure smuttiness.
All events from the series still happened, but they are going to take some different turns.
This will be a series, not sure how long, but all starting from a place inspired by the AU "The Unicorn" created by Big Tuna in the future, and started in episode-centric events.
What started as a single little one-shot of what may have happened after Stress Relief. (Jim was panicked, Pam was scared. They needed a place to feel safe.) This has now become a little series of vignettes I can't let go of.
Enjoy!
Takes place inside/after The Negotiation..pretty much AU after that, but pulls in themes from Beach Games.
Lots of inspiration from Everything by Lifehouse
TW: violence, swearing, domestic violence…a VERY different version of what happened after Roy tried to hit Jim. If you have been through interpersonal violence, or experience anxiety & panic, please go gently here.
100% there will be good stuff as we go...hence the spicy warnings...but in the beginning, it is going to be BUMPY.
In the beginning, each chapter will switch POV, and it will most certainly be Jim/Pam POV, with minimal potential for others. Then the chapters will be longer and shared POV.
*Please, be gentle and kind with yourselves, if you choose to read*

I own nothing outside of a bad case of creative insomnia, a caffeine addiction, a need to dissociate and relax with The Office and a passion for social work.
Jim asks Pam to dance at Phyllis and Bob Vance, Vance Refridgeration's wedding.
It's fluff, it's a fix-it, it's just a story.
Soulmates' first words to each other show up on their wrists under the light of a full moon.
Unfortunately, there are massive taboos about actually checking for these, because not everyone has one.
