Just a little Jim/Pam to get us through this hiatus.

Jim, Pam, and Jim's brother Jon are visiting New York when something happens. Something that nobody would ever expect..

He’s shifting noisily in his bed, and you hear him grunt quietly in frustration before he mutters, “I swear, these mattresses are made of straw.”

SPOILERS up to, and including, Money.

Karen gives Pam props for the last year. I desperately need these two to have a friendly parting, so this is me fulfilling my own wish.

Michael watched Pam through the blinds. She was so lucky, everyone always wanted to talk to her, hang out with her, be friends with her. Sometimes he wished he could be her. It would all be so easy if he was Pam.

Pam looked up to see Michael staring at her through the blinds. She smiled to herself before turning back to answering the phones. Sometimes she wondered what it was like to be Michael. It must be strange.

There's a rule of the universe. Never wonder the same thing at the same time as someone else. That's a karmic jinx.
