Not the Type To by lodessa Rated: K [Reviews - 0]
Summary: Roy can see them before he opens the door, as he walks up the stairs. Jim’s leaning in towards Pam and she’s laughing at something he’s just said. She never laughs like that at anything Roy says anymore. When he sees Roy, Jim will straighten up and Pam will smile forcedly. Roy knows how things are. He isn’t as stupid as everyone seems to think.
Recommended by: darjeelingandcoke
Recommender's comments: A very good Roy POV piece if you want to understand Roy better without someone trying to convince you you should like him.

Cloak and Dagger by NeoVenus22 Rated: K [Reviews - 0]
Summary: Sneaking around, as it turns out, is a lot more entertaining than Jim expected.
Recommended by: darjeelingandcoke
Recommender's comments: A sweet but mainly hilarious glimpse at Pam and Jim making a game out of hiding their new relationship from their co-workers during the post-The Job summer. There are just some killer lines here.

Morning Light Shall Burst Bright by cashewdani Rated: K [Reviews - 0]
Summary: "Michael, you can’t just demand that everyone goes to the Poconos this weekend."
Recommended by: darjeelingandcoke
Recommender's comments: A combination of BusinessTrip!Fic and Sick!Fic, set in late Season 3. I.E. Michael makes everyone go to the Poconos, Jim gets bronchitis, and Pam offers to take care of him so Karen won't catch it. Flawed, but some solid Season 3 feels and good use of the supporting cast.

The Roof by lalamonstah Rated: K [Reviews - 0]
Summary: Jim has a secret agenda including Pam, and the Dunder Mifflin cameramen are interested.
Recommended by: darjeelingandcoke
Recommender's comments: Jim proposes. Pam says yes. They get married. From the POV of the camera crew that's gotten way too invested in this story. If that intrigues you, read on. (AU in the "this is a prediction of what would happen from S4" sense rather than the "this is the story set in a different universe" sense.)

The Pilot by snoggings Rated: T [Reviews - 0]
Summary: The documentary begins filming at DM Scranton. The camera guys become intrigued.
Recommended by: darjeelingandcoke
Recommender's comments: One of the great missed moments of S1 (Jim finding out about the fake firing) and the story of how the camera crew first noticed what was between Jim and Pam. Good for anyone intrigued by the behind-the-scenes machinations of the crew.

When You Don't Whisper by allthingsholy Rated: T [Reviews - 0]
Summary: "Jan doesn't say something trite and hollow about things working out for the best, she just clears her throat and blows smoke up toward the sky."
Recommended by: darjeelingandcoke
Recommender's comments: Jim/Jan, "Five Things Jan Probably Shouldn't Have Said To Jim." Jim can't transfer, Pam stays with Roy. An angst-ridden relationship follows.

Don't Fall in Love with Everyone You See by bayloriffic Rated: K+ [Reviews - 0]
Summary: Kelly’s probably had this discussion about a million times in her life, but she’s so excited that Jim is actually playing along that she doesn’t mind. Plus, she really would like to know his opinion on this. It’s always good to get a guy’s perspective when it comes to romance and dating, even if that guy doesn’t understand the most amazing movie of all time.
Recommended by: darjeelingandcoke
Recommender's comments: Jim/Kelly during the dark days of Season 3 (although it *could* be read as Jim/Kelly friendship if you're insistent on canon compliance), very in character for both of them, featuring a mostly oblivious Karen and world's worst boyfriend Ryan and Jim having a very predictable take on Pretty in Pink.

Recommended by: darjeelingandcoke
Recommender's comments: From the author of Philly Jam: a oneshot in which Jim works out his disappointment post-Goodbye Toby by helping Dwight through the Dwangela version of Booze Cruise.

Whitest Shoes and Dundie Blues by Daughter of Atlas Rated: K [Reviews - 0]
Summary: An alternate ending to The Dundies, in which Angela leaves a rather lovesick Jim to deal with a very drunk Pam. A look at a night that almost changed their friendship. JimPam.
Recommended by: darjeelingandcoke
Recommender's comments: Adorable and funny, featuring lines such as Jim marveling at Angela's refusal to drive Pam: "When it comes to not drinking and driving, she is *really* strict."

Summary: Oneshot. 'The entire day is like a funeral.' Jim post Australia, post wedding. Sort of JimKelly but not really.

Recommender's comments: Jim/Kelly in the only way Jim/Kelly can be - two hurt people wishing they were someone else. Explored by an MTT Hall of Famer no less.

Summary: Dwight's your person and he's Jim's person, and you're both going to help him together. Pam and Jim understand each other a little better, these days. Sometimes Pam thinks it's all because of Dwight. And that's a scary thought. [spoilers up to 4x04, Money; also for Buffy the Vampire Slayer through Season 6]
Recommended by: darjeelingandcoke
Recommender's comments: A genuinely adorable JAM/Dwight friendship fic, fun both for being a good early-JAM dating slice of life and for exploring the Jim/Dwight parallels that Money alludes to.

Their NotSoDiabolical plan by letitbeme Rated: K [Reviews - 0]
Summary: Ryan and Dwight attempt to ruin Jim’s career by targeting what he values the most in his life, his wife Pam.  It’s more funny than dark.  Set in late season 6 or early season 7.
Recommended by: Guten Schriftsteller
Recommender's comments: Cute story about That Diabolical plan Ryan finds.  It’s short but shows these two as both schemers but also kinda incompetent.  Just plain fun to be honest

Recommender's comments: A nice one-shot following Pam's thoughts as she faces the possibility of Jim leaving Scranton again, lovely writing, a bit angsty but of course has a happy ending.

Summary:

As she settles in that first day of his absence, hangs her coat and takes her seat, Pam lets herself miss him as a coworker and as a best friend and that’s it. Work will be work, with or without Jim Halpert. But that’s a lie, because of course it is. A series of one-shots retelling season 3 from Pam's perspective

Recommender's comments: Though a lot of us know S3 by heart now, this author really does a good job expanding on Pam's thoughts and emotions through the season.As the author says, an excuse to appreciate Pam's amazing S3 character arc a little more.
