I love stumbling into a story that I can't put down! You've got me liking Jackson (what a cutie - he'll do wonders for Pam's almost non-existent ego,) feeling for Pam, annoyed with Karen, and Jim...well, in this last chapter his frustration/jealousy were so vivid - when he stepped on the accelerator, I actually felt the whooosh. More soon, I hope.

Oh man, I LOVE Jackson. LOVE LOVE LOVE him.
It's funny because I just had a long chat thursday night with my best online friend and fellow Office fangirl, and we talked about how Pam needs to meet someone NOW. Someone really great and NOT Roy, and move on a little. Because she can't sit there and pine for Jim forever. And here you've got it written so perfectly.
I have no idea if this is where you're taking this story, but I can TOTALLY see this turning into Karen finding the guy she's REALLY supposed to be with, and then understanding how Jim has felt all this time. Then of course, she and Jim break up, Jackson and she move back to the Village and Pam and Jim make destined-to-be, sweet, sweet love and have lots of babies, the end. LMAO.
But wherever you are taking this, I'm on board. More, please!

Love this so much!! Absolutely cannot wait to see what's next!!

I love Jackson...and I'd like him even more if he and Karen ran off to Vegas and left Jim and Pam alone.
Was that mean? ;) Seriously I'm loving this so far!

*jaw thunks*
Okay, is it really sad and pathetic of me to say that I'm kinda more interested in where you're going with the Jackson/Karen thing than the Jim/Pam?
Hee.
Thanks so much!
cheers.

Date: April 03, 2007 08:44 pm Title: The Arrangement
Very interesting next step indeed! I still love Jackson and I'm also a big fan of jealous Jim...can't wait to see what happens at lunch!
Date: April 03, 2007 08:33 pm Title: The Arrangement
Ooh, some Jealous!Jim in the air! But will he be more jealous of Pam's attention to Jackson or Karen's?
Date: April 03, 2007 07:39 pm Title: The Arrangement

Yeah, I think I like Jackson, too. :-) Looking forward to that lunch date!!
Date: April 03, 2007 05:25 pm Title: The Arrangement
no! karen can't have him! first she takes jim and now trying to take jackson (away from me, of course. with guys like that, screw pam!)
Date: April 01, 2007 06:35 pm Title: Saving Lives
what? they aren't real? you mean there isn't a company called dunder mifflin with a boss like michael and a little love triangle of jim, pam, karen (wow, on another mesage board i go to it actually extended into a love hypercube. good times).
Barely started, and just had to say how much I loved this line: "And as the tears well up in Pam’s eyes Karen actually looks away because it’s almost too painful to look at someone whose world has just collapsed"
Oh, and then Pam talking. Breaking my heart!
I don't drink, but I can understand Pam's wanting to get wasted. I really think there are a lot of times where I would just drink and drink if there was any alcohol in my apartment.
God, I just feel horrible for Pam, and I am just like, living these emotions and it hurts me! its probably good that i got a phone call in the middle of this, so i could take a break from all that emotion.
okay, ooh, introducing a new guy into the mix. aww, i love jackson a bit more than i love jim even. and he will probably be jackson to me because, well, because i say so!

I’ll tell you a break-up story that will make your hand stand on end,
I'm pretty sure that phrase is actually "hair stand on end" but maybe this is a new take on it. ;)
And you don't have to sell me on boys from Texas. Love 'em all. Jackson is an interesting new twist on this story. Refreshing to see an outsider enter the claustrophobic mix The Office is becoming. :)
Date: March 26, 2007 12:47 am Title: Saving Lives
Hmm, not too sure Pam can trust a t-sip, haha! Sorry, that's just the Aggie in me speaking. And yes, Texas boys are second only to JH/JK. I'm very interested to see where this goes! Keep it up!
And if you are a Longhorn, I hope we can put our rivalries aside and be friends. In the name of JAM, lol! =D

Interesting!!!
I was actually ACHING in the first chapter, and this one feels just as painful, but somehow, there's light at the end of the tunnel.
(is this is crossover? because I don't recognize it)
Thanks!
cheers.

Jackson is quite adorable. I have to admit that I died a little inside at the thought of another post-Cocktails story, but this one has won me over, largely because you are not afraid to go with a different angle, but also because you have a lovely, straight-forward writing style. I look forward to more. Any guesses on when?

Just a quick note- Beer is sold only at beer distributors and liquor is sold only in state controlled wine and spirits shops. You can't buy beer at the liquor store and you can't buy liquor at the beer distributor. And neither is sold at the grocery store. It's a stupid law.
HOWEVER, please update this quickly. I want to know what happens with Jackson! Do you have a mental image of what he looks like?
Date: March 25, 2007 10:29 am Title: Saving Lives
Is your goal to make me like Jackson more than I like Jim (at the moment at least)? Because I totally do....can't wait to see what else you do with this fic!
Date: March 25, 2007 09:17 am Title: Saving Lives
Oh, this is very nice. Just make sure Jackson doesn't turn into an axe murderer, or I am coming after you. But... I'm pretty sure you're a lot faster than me, so ... just keep Jackson nice please.
I can definitely see Pam just wanting to never see any of them again. Isn't that what Jim tried to do, going to Stamford? (How'd that work for him, by the way?)
Nice job!

noooooo.....jim cant leave scranton! Pam was so sad! Update soon! I can't wait to see where you re going with this.
Date: March 24, 2007 01:56 pm Title: Not Ready to Forgive
Ooof. That hit me right in the grief bone. I'm not sure about Pam being so apologetic. On the one hand, it may be in character, because she is typically pretty concerned about the feelings of others, often to the point of hurting herself....but, on the other hand, she didn't do anything wrong, and hopefully "Don't Call Me Pammy" would know that.....
Very well written, though. Very angsty.
Date: March 24, 2007 01:47 pm Title: Not Ready to Forgive
I just watched the video and HOLY COW!!!! Such a good post-quel to that vid. So, keep it up and let's hope that Jim doenst plan on leaving again. It would be such a smack in the face to all us fans....but I could see this happening. I definately thought that Jim would be harsh to Pam after the fight. I see it going down like that myself. Thanks!
Date: March 24, 2007 01:39 pm Title: Not Ready to Forgive
I think Jim would eventually react to Pam saying "I just wanted to get over you..." - at least I hope so. (And I hope that's how you go with it.)
I was hoping for... "check if there are openings in corporate - for you." Is that mean? (/Pam)
Anyway, I'll be literally waiting right here for updates. (Well, I may go and do a few things, but, you know, I'll be here at some point.)
