3 [Reviews - 2] Pam's monotonous days of living in New York with her longtime boyfriend are broken up by the friendship she forms with Jim, who she meets in a coffee shop. This is the story of their friendship, told through a list of what he gave her.
Continuation of Elliptical Orbits, can be read as a standalone
It’s 1964, and Jim Halpert honestly believes his only calling in life is to inherit his family’s appliance store, with a passion for jazz music and drumming on the side. Opportunity knocks in the form of a drumming gig for a band performing at a local college talent show, bringing the group recognition for the song they play. But, with the four of them and the lead singer’s adorable, redheaded girlfriend leading the charts by storm, what will come of their newfound fame?
Pregnant and newly single, Pam Beesly finds herself relying on her best friend Jim more than ever. Will love blossom along with new life? Or will things stay the same way they always were.
A season two AU in which Pam finds herself pregnant with Roy’s baby and leans on Jim for support.
Pam has a crush on the newly hired paper salesman. Her annoying coworker offers to help her make a move.
(AU) They all still work at Dunder Mifflin but the story is not faithful to canon.
Beth the waitress returns!
A series of stand alone, slice of life, one-shots in Pam and Jim's life, all tied together with the thread that runs through them; they all end with dinner at Christopher's, where (in my headcanon) they had their first date.
The first and the last chapter NOW COMPLETE work in tandem, but everything in between is its own story if you want to pop in for one whose title strikes your fancy.
UPDATE 4/6 - Marked Complete - see story notes for a message of explanation and gratitude.
What happened after Jim "struck gold" during his job interview in New York (season 3 finale) and before Pam went mining for celebrity sex tapes (season 4 opener), this chapter by chapter WIP has the story told through many points of view - none of them from the documentary film crew.
'The main source of her distress laid on the table, almost shining under the lights. Pam knew it would be hard to break with it but had no idea how much.'
Set during and after 'Benihana Christmas.'
A rare moment between Jim and Pam.
My response to the 55 word challenge.
He was never meant to end up here, to meet her, and to have his life changed forever.
"Where is your future?"
"She's back in Scranton."
A deeper look into Jim and Pam's thoughts during "The Job," plus what I think could have happened on their first date.
Jim and Pam navigate their first dates. My take on scenes we didn't get to see between "The Job" and "Fun Run". Fluffy, romantic, sexy fun.
A look at Pam’s Season 3 journey through the eyes of her art instructor.
“Marla always started off the term asking students to fill out a survey about themselves... There wasn’t much on Pam’s paper; a few neatly written words that she worked as a receptionist, hadn’t taken art classes since high school, and liked watercolors best.”
“Are you free for dinner tonight?”
“Yes.” Her reply is immediate, eager, completely certain. He sees her, truly sees her, sees her eyes taking him in and her hands clenched in her lap and her hair the same way it has been every day that he has known her.
“Then it’s a date.” It is the most important thing in the world that he clarifies this last piece of information, that she knows what she is getting into. He is almost prepared to hear her recant, to take back her single syllable and tuck it away for someone else. But she doesn’t.
Dear friends, may I present a short collection of events taking place during and after the events depicted in ‘The Job’ (S3) detailing Jim’s break-up with Karen and his first date with Pam. Get excited for some angsty monologuing from Jim, some indignant Karen and some super fluffy adorable first-date non-canon content.
She wonders why it is so hard for her to be happy these days. She wonders why it takes her so long to fall asleep, and when she does she tosses around dreams of the office and Jell-O and Jim. She wonders why it has been so easy for her to ignore the swelling of her heart that makes it feel like her chest is going to explode. She wonders why her skin comes alive for Jim but never for Roy. And she wonders why it was so easy for her to nod and push him away, when she knows she should have just pulled him back in and let herself drown in him forever.
A response to the 'Pam in Stanford' challenge. Beginning on Casino Night (S2), this AU explores what would have happened if Pam transferred to Stamford instead of Jim.
