AU: Dunder Mifflin and the characters are real, but subject to a media and internet blackout about their own show. Pam gets suspicious when a simple search for "jam" returns an error code saying it is related to the show.
Set somewhere vaguely in an AU S2.
An AU Casino Night Fic. What if Jim and Pam had talked more after Jim's confession in the parking lot?
55 words (which appears to be quite the tradition around here) on a first day (doesn't matter whose).
Role Reversal Challenge: It's May 2006. Jim's wedding is approaching and a lovelorn Pam can't take much more. Starts during Casino Night (or an AU version of it).
Pam calls off her wedding. Roy loses it. Jim's in Stamford, but not for long.
A hospital stay and the recovery afterward, almost entirely from Jim's POV. Earnest and fluffy and sweet, with a side of steam for dessert. Tons of inner monologue, lots of dialogue, dramatic with plenty of humor sprinkled throughout.
Pam decides to write angry letters without sending them. Or, well, the modern equivalent thereof. A fun little romp of a story!
AU: Canon divergence. Pam doesn't get back together with Roy in season 3. She leaves the wedding when he asks her to dance. They are not together for her art show. They don't go to Poor Richard's, she doesn't tell him about the kiss with Jim, and he never tries to attack Jim in the office.
Get Jim and Pam together or apart in 55 words.
Jim and Pam's first date and the ensuing weekend. Set after The Job. My second attempt at taking on the topic. Minutes after Casino Night, Jim and Pam deal with the aftermath and living away from each other. After Jim gets settled in Stamford, and Pam is adjusting to life without Jim in Scranton and with her fiancé Roy, Pam and Jim end up meeting back together at a Dunder Mifflin convention with their bosses. Lots of Love and heartache.
Or "Five versions of June 10, 2016"
Just exploring a few "what if" vignettes on what would have been Pam and Roy's 10th wedding anniversary.
Checking in on Jim's thoughts a week after certain events.
On a road trip, Jim's memories keep him company.
Memories take place throughout Jim and Pam's relationship, from friends to husband and wife (pre- to post-series), but they are framed by events that occur during the Texas period (post-series).
No one's ever had a crush on her as far as she knows. Roy, maybe, but that was so long ago it doesn't feel like it even counts.Jim and Pam are the best of friends, until Jim moves away. He makes and keeps a promise.
