I really like your vision of Andrea. You moved her into a relationship with Jim organically and ended it with class.

The angst is perfectly awful here, but I want to highlight something else, the beauty of this line: "that suddenly, it occurred to him as he was holding her that he felt for the first time in months that he was home, where he belonged." Lovely.

Beautiful, beautiful story. Especially the last chapter... So much love... It had me go "aww" at least 100 times.
Author's Response:
I'm a bit late in responding to your review, but I wanted to thank you for taking the time to comment. :o) I must admit...this is one of my earlier fics, and I tended to be waaaaaaay melodramatic in the beginning, so sometimes I cringe when I look at older stuff. That said: It's nice to hear that you really did enjoy it. :o)
Thanks again for reviewing!

Amazing! This story is just amazing. I love that you made Andi such a three dimensional character. So perfect. I love how they figured everything out together and the last chapter was just amazing and perfect and wonderful. Such a good payback for all the previous angst!
(Oh, and totally not a big deal, but in the last chapter you said they were dancing to Train's "Love Will Come Through". The song is actually by Travis!)
Author's Response:
So here I am responding to your review nearly six months after the fact, but a discussion over on the Fanfic discussion thread reminded me that yes, I need to go back and respond to some older reviews! :o) I'm really glad to hear you enjoyed this story; it was one of my first fully fleshed out ones. I had such a great time writing Andi, because I really wanted to write a believable - and likeable - love interest for Jim, someone that we could not feel too horrible about him being with. And I had entirely too much fun with the whole Pam-doesn't-know thing. And thanks for the Train/Travis thing -- I totally knew that, must've been in a hurry. :O)
Thanks for reviewing (and BTW: Your screen name is awesome!) --

Aaaaand, now you've got me crying. I watched the fanvid before reading this, was that my mistake? ;)
This is such a great chapter. Definitely not too high on the angst-o-meter. I could hear their voices through your writing - great job.
If only I "Andi" had ended up being so nice in real life. ;)
Author's Response:
I have to tell you - it really is such a thrill to read new reviews of an old work; this one was my first fully complete fanfic, so it's kind of a sentimental one for me. :o) ANd YES that video freaking kills me.
Heh, yes, Andi was long before we even knew who Karen was (though I did know that he'd have a love interest and that Rashida would be playing her).
Thanks so much for reviewing!

Ow. That really, really hurts.
Author's Response:
Ohhhh -- I'm sorry! Yeah, this one's quite angsty for the first half (and as I was posting, boy did some people give me the business, LOL). But I can promise you that there's a fairly long happy ending.
TWSS! *bursting out laughing a la Michael Scott*
Thanks for reviewing!

Not just smut, but girl7 smut which is some of the prettiest smut of all the smut. ;)
Where to start? So much to take in. Oh yeah, that was looooooong. (TWSS)
Just wonderful as usual. Such sweetness, pitch perfect bantering (how I love the bantering) the joking and the tickling (guh!) the tears (sometimes mine!). Snow Patrol, for fuck's sake! You're killing me with Snow Patrol, but in a good way.
There was a lot of kissing, and that makes us very happy. (That would be me and Smiley!Jim icon)
Wait! Halpert-Beesley-palooza?
Better. Than. Pancakes.
::bounce-bounce::
Author's Response:
Hee - glad you liked the smut! Hands down, I had the most fun writing the "rules" chapters -- so much fun. I'm really glad you liked all the kissing -- and of course, I totally aim to please Smiley!JIm icon. (I swear to god, I get a big old grin just thinking about it, hee.)
Thanks for reviewing!

OH, my god. In the middle of all the angsty-great angst, the Even Finer Work Award.... too much! I love it.
Author's Response:
Hee - yeah, that's the only thing in this chapter that wasn't just over-the-top angsty. :o)
Thanks so much for reviewing!

Wow. This is without a doubt the best fanfic I have ever, ever read. Completely amazing story. I bow to your awesomeness!
Date: February 01, 2007 04:37 pm Title: Chapter 2
I love, love, LOVE your internal monologue stuff. I must be a glutton for angst, cause I totally eat it up. Your writing is so visual and the characters' "voices" so perfect that I can see them literally in my head having these conflicts. Glad I found another winner!!

fyi, they dont sell alcohol in PA grocery stores. Just the state store or a lovely "beer barn". Loved the story though!

This was the most amazing story I have ever read, EVER! You're incredible. You captured their characters perfectly, which is the hardest thing to do in a fanfiction. And, that love. All that love. You made it so real, it was heart-breaking, and beautiful. You had me laughing, and swooning, and crying. Thank you so much for that. Again, you're incredible. You're awesome.

Oh, I loved it!
It's VERY realistic; I could definitely see this truly happening. I loved how they took it slowly, and how it was hard for them to believe it was all true. Aah.
Date: August 17, 2006 09:01 am Title: Chapter 2
I am just tearing through everything you've written - and loving all of it!! Please continue. I need a happy ending; they need a happy ending! (though the angst is delicious)
Author's Response: OH, thank you so much! I'm glad you're enjoying it! (ANd I love the feedback!)

Excellent chapter
