I'm just about ready to hand you the crown...for queen of Jam angst.
Author's Response: Hee hee -- I shall wear it proudly!

Loved, loved, loved this chapter. Love that you included litterature, love that Pam wants to mark Jim's things and love Jim's mom.
Author's Response: Yay! Thanks!

Wonderful chapter. I had two favorite lines -
"Because if he’d learned one thing over the past several years of being in love with her – secretly -- it was that he found it far easier to swallow his own pain than to witness hers". and …".And now we’re in the next stage of drunken Pam: Seductress. God help me." I truly love these chapters - I love your writing style, your content and the fact that your Jim and Pam sound just like Jim and Pam.
Author's Response: Thank you so much -- seriously. I love such specific feedback. :o) Really, I so appreciate your taking the time to give me such a thoughtful review!

Okay, so this is my new favorite chapter! I'd list all of the reasons, but I don't have all day.
Author's Response: You are the most awesome reader on the planet -- seriously! You always leave reviews! Thank you!!

ah confusedPam... somehow I can understand why she'd confuse feelings for Jim as pre-wedding jitters. Let's hope she comes to realize what's really going on...
Author's Response: Yeah -- although I'm thinking she's just calling them that because it's convenient. And (evil, maniacal Dwight laugh) in MY fics, she will realize what's going on eventually -- hahahaaha!!! :o) Thanks for the review --

Wow. Drunk Pam is really compelling.
Author's Response:
Yay! She just says the things I think I'd say -- sober -- if I were in her position. Like, "Yeah, so what the hell are you doing? How is it that you're getting sexier by the day??"
That's a question I would actually like to pose to John Krasinski myself. Of course, he'd go all red and embarrassed. Sigh.

OMG that was awesome. I love drunk Pam and yes you should do drunk Jim, as long as he drunk sexy Jim
Author's Response: Oh yeah -- he'll be drunk sexy Jim, not weepy drunk Jim. That's why I figure he'll have to be REALLY drunk Jim. :o)

Jim is really going into self-destructive mode now. How sad! Drinking whisky? Sign of a slippery slope...
Author's Response: A slippery slope indeed. I'm trying to set it up for Conflict Resolution to be a big old angsty mess.

Wow, what an intense ending. I keep forgetting about Brenda...great idea bringing her in, jealous, possessive Pam is always entertaining.
Author's Response: Thank you! Poor Brenda -- she's easy to forget about. I'm thinking she probably never would have called him back after the rambling awkward message he left (on the show, that is).
Date: September 01, 2006 07:57 am Title: Chapter 19: Dwight's Speech
I don't think I've ever read Pam's musings about what her wedding would be with Jim in attendance, and you handled them very well. As always, it's interesting to read about her increasing awareness of what's going on.
Small note: the jinx scene happened in Drug Testing, which aired after Dwight's Speech.
Author's Response:
Yeah, these are actually quite out of order. I started writing them according to what episodes just moved me on a given day.
I hadn't thought about it either - what it would be like if she did get married, and he did go. But once I started contemplating it, I realized how horribly awful it would be. Eeks.

You fiend for throwing this one in...I should have been tipped of by the "déjà vu" comment, but got suckered into wondering what was going on...
Author's Response: :o) Thank you! I had to give them a break for once.
Date: September 01, 2006 07:28 am Title: Chapter 24: The Injury - part II
You are destroying me and I'm loving every minute. Terrific as always!
Author's Response: Yay! I mean, I don't want to destroy you, but I'm glad you're enjoying the story. :o)

You are *so* good at the Jam angst! I love the little rituals they have, and Pam's fear of being seperated from Jim one day.
Author's Response: Thanks!

Hi, I'm back from vacation and will be flooding you with reviews about this story, which I love.
This chapter really pulled at me. Pam knowing Jim is in love with her, and herself feeling pulled to him, yet ignoring it, makes me ache every time.
Author's Response:
Yay! Flood away -- I love the feedback.
This was one of those that got away from me a little - the angsty ones always do.

I think this is your best chapter yet.
"...the only thing that frightened her as much as him acknowledging those feelings to her was the fear that one day they’d go away." I just want to slap the girl. Pam, fish or cut bait!
Author's Response: I'd like to slap her sometimes myself. But I settle for writing her drunk and rambling and inappropriate instead. :o)
Date: August 31, 2006 05:10 pm Title: Chapter 24: The Injury - part II
Wow, an old favorite book I hadn't thought about in ages...works perfectly too. And I love the idea of a literate Jim...really makes sense to me. All in all, a deliciously angsty read.

I like the way you added the lyrics from both points of view. They definitely do need to save eachother. This was really good. I'm excited for more.

I hope you are writing Casino Night this very second! This was great. :)
Author's Response: Yay - I'm glad you liked it! Nope, not writing Casino Night yet -- I'm forcing myself to do Drug Testing, Michael's Birthday, and Conflict Resolution first. But I am about to DIE of eagerness to get to CN. Gotta torture Jim some more first -- 'cause he's so...sexy when he's tortured. (Not that I wish him to remain tortured forever....)

This totally expresses the same haunted, bleak feeling as Jim's "I have no future here" talking head. It's nightmarish from beginning to end. Bravo!
Author's Response: Thank you so much for saying that -- because that's exactly what I'm trying to lead up to! :o)

So good.
"He pulled back for a second, only slightly, breathing into her mouth, knowing she felt that pull toward him that he was feeling toward her, knowing she could probably feel him hard against her, knowing that fucking Roy was waiting outside in Daryl’s car to take her back to a life where she didn’t belong."
Jeez. You're killing me. I love it.

EEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!
*panting*
I'm supposed to be writing a grant right now! It's due today! Damn my lack of will power!
Because I'm SO reading Part II.
You rock, darlin'! You might get me fired, but I love you anyway ;)
Author's Response:
I must tell you -- it is just the HIGHEST compliment coming from you! I had an internal little "Eeeee!" when I saw your review! I hope you like Part II -- it's my favorite of all the ones I've written, actually; it was the most fun to write.
And if it's any consolation, I have a pile of papers to grade that amounts to about six hours of work. So yeah, we'll be unemployed together. :o) Can't wait to hear your thoughts on II!!

Whew. Awesome. From Michael's exit to Roy's entrance, awesome. Love Jim's single nod, that he says nothing after "Different how?" If you'd written this right after Booze Cruise, I'd be dying right now.

Oooh, ouch. This hurts, a lot. I hope you're building up to something fluffier?
