Summary: The aftermath of "Traveling Salesman." 'Cause everybody hurts sometimes.
Recommended by: darjeelingandcoke
Recommender's comments: Quick slices of life from after the EPISODE THAT CHANGED EVERYTHING (for Dwight).
The author just has a good handle on character voice, it's worth a read.

Summary: Michael decides to have a sleepover at the office. Shenanigans ensue.
Recommended by: darjeelingandcoke
Recommender's comments: This is script-fic set between Business Trip and the MSPC arc, and it's absolutely brilliant. Could 100% be an unproduced episode - everyone's voices are dead on.
Not particularly JAM-focused, but there are some very sweet JAM moments I would've loved to see onscreen... including some conversations we really didn't see enough of about Jim's goals besides being with Pam and Pam's feelings about being back at DM.

Summary: Ryan does a number on Kelly's emotional well being, again. This time, Kelly finds a new solution.
Recommended by: darjeelingandcoke
Recommender's comments: This is Kelly/Erin. Very well-written, and a great one if you love the rest of the ensemble too *and* were mildly horrified at the romantic drama the writers put these two through in later seasons. Or if you just feel like Ryan never quite got the karmic punishment he deserved and Kelly deserved better. (There is some interesting Kelly perspective on JAM in there too though.)

Summary: At first they want to send a camera crew to tail him at Stamford too. Post-Casino Night.
Recommended by: NobleLandMermaid
Recommender's comments: Originally written in summer '06 so a bit AU now, but still a very plausible (and heartbreaking) look at Jim's final days in Scranton and move to Stamford. Beautiful finish as well!

A week after Casino Night, a memo comes in over the fax machine from New York: spring cleaning this week in the office.
