Favorite Moment in a Fanfic

Cosa Nostra by Coley - Pam adding, “do not fall in love,” to the list in the most rom-com trope-y move of all time

Groundhog Nights by Comfect - Karen getting hit by a truck but then is fine the next day

Hello my Old Heart by Duchess Cupcake - when Jim shows Pam his online profile. When she asks him when he became so fuckable. Jim's Raya account and Pam introducing Jim and Danny to each other

How Not To by again18: “Hi,” I started, closing my eyes and taking a deep breath. “My name is Pam Beesly. I’m an alcoholic. And I really, really don’t want to be one anymore.” and then she and Jim pour out their bottle of booze

I Heard Your Heart Say Love, Love, Love by JennaBennett - Michael holding the Team Pam sign in the window

Kind of Reckless by Coley - for burning the image of farmer Jim into my mind

Morning After by Comfect - Cutest Larisa Halpert

Office Space by Comfect - "And apparently he had mastered the art of talking and drinking through the same mouth at the same time (reportedly an ability they had gene-engineered into the inhabitants of Omicron Perseii VIII,"

Perfect Mess by JennaBennett - Kevin's protecting Pam from Roy

Ruin the Friendship by Duchess Cupcake - Pam and Jim finally hooking up again, Pam thinking about buying Katy a peace lily 

Serendipity by Sam - Jim proposed Pam, Jim and Pam's wedding night

Sing Gloria by warrior4 - The most references to RL in any fic ever

Snaps by again - the moment it was published, “Come back here and f*** me like a real man", Pam daring Jim to come back and f*** her like a real man AND THEN his follow through, and did I mention Snaps? Just... all of Snaps.

Stilettos and Broken Bottles - Every word … Don't make me pick just one moment there

Unwrapped by Coley: “Can I kiss you?”, when it was finally updated after that Cliffhanger kiss

When Pam Met Jim by Donnamour1969: Pam and Jim dancing at Micheal's mother's birthday party
