She had spent her whole life trying to put it into words.

Jim missing Cece's recital is what makes Pam realize she's falling back into her old ways. She's accepting things she doesn't want to accept and not standing up for herself like she should. She decides she needs to find herself again before her and Jim can be happy. 

Loosely based off of Grow As We Go by Ben Platt 

An Amélie AU with Pam as Amélie, Jim as Nino, and all our favourite ensemble characters thrown in for good measure!

"Shut up! We didn't film ourselves!"

"Hi, Pam's grammaw. Sorry you had to find out like this."

She hits him. 

"He doesn’t want to be presumptuous but all he’s been thinking about for the past twelve minutes as the car sped away from the restaurant is how much he wants to kiss her again; how much he wants to keep on kissing her until he either dies from happiness or wakes up."

My (canon-compliant) take on Pam and Jim's romantic journey, beginning with their first date. Includes flashbacks. 

Just two women watching rom-coms, drinking wine and gossiping about boys and kissing. Just two gals being pals...

And when he walked me home that night

All the stars were shining bright

And then he kissed me

She left her house that night with nothing but a too tight dress and a plan to leave as soon as possible. She walked back home with the man who would become her everything. 1950’s Scranton.

There’s something unnerving about the sun still being out, something that makes it all seem a little more serious. Something about seeing the dust in the corner, the sources of shadows, the scuffs on the floor all illumined by the warm light streaming through the windows.

It’s less like magic.

It’s more like real life.

A Coffeeshop AU.

Pamela Beesly, recently unbetrothed graphic designer, stumbles into The Comedy Roasters, a new coffeeshop with a manic owner and an intriguingly attractive barista.
