Sorry about that last comment. Good story! I like the Jim strong-and-brave thingy (i no it wasn't in this chapter). And I like that nobody gets beatan up. Write another chapter please!

Oh, wow. I sure wasn't expecting Roy to expect to get back together with Pam after THAT, but then again, he is Mr. Oblivious, so it shouldn't surprise me. Boy, I can't wait to see how he reacts to Pam's news! THAT will blindside him for sure.
I love the image of Jim sitting there, hands on the armrests, tensed and waiting to jump up if Pam needs him. *sigh*
Great chapter. Can't wait for more!

Ugh! Roy, she said it's over!!! Poor Pam, has to dump him AGAIN? (And she'd better say no, wingwoman!)
In reality, Karen and Jim are broken up, and Pam and Roy are broken up (I think she said this is over and he said this is SO over), Jim would probably hang out at Pam's a bit longer that night. Maybe not stay over yet, but they are both single and in the same town - I think they'd at least bask in each other's glow for a while. (I actually don't mean that in a smutty way necessarily.)
I'll watch for the next chapter!

I followed the link from ff.net over here - why were you in my favourites there but not here? I'll be sure to remedy that right away.
You take on post-Cocktails is quite original. Pam calling Karen instead of Jim was quite simply inspired.

"It’s so much easier to just let go when she pulls you down towards her." - I'm enjoying this story, and this line is just really nice.
I think you did pretty well with the voices. I didn't see any problems with them, and I generally notice that sort of thing.
I am loving these post-Cocktails stories. I just can't get enough of them. I look forward to more.

It's hard to believe a chapter I'm sure the *readers* love immensely could cause you so much grief, but oh well - as you should know, I adored this, I loved this, I can't stop smiling after reading this. Resolution! I love the description of their kiss, or the part before their kiss, and I love them in this chapter - so in-character, talking, chatting, smiling...her crying, him comforting.
Aw.
Can't wait for an update!! I love this story!

The Packer thing was amazing.
I'm enjoying this story and I look forward to more. Hooray for Jim at the window!

MORE! MORE!!!! -begs on hands and knees- Please, I've had to wait for the office to come back after their hiatus, I hate waiting on good fanfic!!! Please????

i love how Pam mentioned the fire in Jim's eyes! Jim is a real man. ahhh i love it! good writing

Oh man, what a great chapter. This part:
For the first time all night he looks at you, actually looks at you. “You don’t get it. I can’t… I can’t think right now. I can’t talk. I just… I have to see if she’s okay.”
rocked me to the core (just like it did Karen.) Because he's never felt that urgency with her, that panic, that extreme of any kind of emotion. And she knows it.
Ouch.
More, please! Adding to favorites.

I'm so glad you're continuing this! I love your take on that night, especially Pam calling Karen. And this chapter was so awesome, with Jim concerned only about Pam and having to get to her to make sure she's OK. And even though she just broke up with him, Karen's still concerned for his safety with Roy.
Date: March 08, 2007 07:33 pm Title: Chapter 2
I love that Jim just had to go check on Pam, even though Karen said Pam wouldn't want to see him. I like the change to Jim's POV at the end and "you shouldn’t have had to say it" and “Just try not to get yourself killed, okay?”
I'll await more!!

Um, YES, you should continue working on this. You may stop for sleeping (better than not), and drinking (bottled water if you're evolving, grape soda if you're not), and... well, when you have a chance, I'll happily read more and review.
SO interesting that you had Pam call Karen. And... it seems Karen might have some trouble getting Jim back home with her. I sense some fun (for us) brewing...!
Date: March 07, 2007 09:42 pm Title: Chapter 1
Yes, you should work on this more.
And MAJOR props to you for having Pam call Karen. I actually think that it's something that Pam would do, just to avoid bringing up all of it with Jim.
I'm looking forward to the rest!
Thanks.
cheers.

Well, I would like to know how honest Jim will be when Karen's curiosity gets to her on that long car ride home. I mean, who needs games?
Date: March 07, 2007 06:10 pm Title: Chapter 1
Yes, you should keep going!!!
Date: March 07, 2007 05:28 pm Title: Chapter 1
Hell yes, continue!!!
Date: March 07, 2007 05:23 pm Title: Chapter 1
I really like this so far! this is the first fanfic I've read that has Pam calling Karen after cocktails, rather than Jim-- I think it's a really interesting idea. I definitely think you should continue!
Date: March 07, 2007 04:04 pm Title: Chapter 1
Oooh, the thought of Pam calling Karen has never even entered my mind. Interesting thought! I hope you continue with this!
Date: March 07, 2007 03:54 pm Title: Chapter 1
Oh, yes, continue, do....I like the shifting second person....a Karen internal debate (what to say to Jim?) would be a good next one, if you are stuck.....
Date: March 07, 2007 03:35 pm Title: Chapter 1
keep working on it.... i hadn't expected her to call karen... i hate hiatuses
