So damn awesome. And if I can't have Jim (who asks a girl to move in with him 5 minutes into the date), I'll take Ben.

Hehee. Loved it!
-Is it weird that about a year ago, I named one of Pam's other love interests Ben and he was based off of a great guy i know? Welp, you better believe it.
Author's Response: oh, thank you. i think that it IS weird, but, maybe there is some hypothesis about nice guys named ben :)

HEY. So, I loved this. And I first read your lemony one (which I'm tackling a review for next) after a surprisingly serupticious google search for the color of Jim's eyes. Yeah, go figure. BUT, I found you, AND this was...amazing. And you're a really freakin' brilliant writer, did you know that??
Write me more porn.
Author's Response: Your compliments are wonderful - thank you! This was just a fun one to write. Flowed out of me - or whatever. Ok, there is a bit of porn on the way, I have like 8000 stories in my head right now...

I love all the bouncing Pam did while getting ready for their date - and wearing Clinique's Happy was a sweet touch.
Author's Response: thank you. i'm a huge fan of bouncy!pam (last seen in "drug testing").

I love that film (KJS) - and this was terrific. Pam was recognizably Pam in each date. The Jim one may be my fave first date fic so far.... “How’s it going?” he asks, and they’ve never had a moment quite like this before" and “Yeah, it’s gonna be enormous – and visible from space..." and really, their whole conversation was just so funny and perfect. Really charming (even if you did sacrifice a perfectly innocent eggplant parmesan.)
Author's Response: whew! pam being recognizable - isn't that a fear for us all if she's not? i'm glad i've stayed true to her, and thank you for saying that. the jim date, of course, is very dear to my heart. it was the point of the whole thing... rni will sacrifice all the italian food in the world if it'll get them together and happy!

NICE. I loved this for a myriad of reasons, not the least of which was that I l-o-v-e eggplant parmesan. Seriously though, GREAT fic. I enjoyed the journey she took and the reference to the ten year plan. Just great.
Author's Response: thank you! yes - it was definitely about the journey.

I have to say that I loved Ben simply because he was almost Jim but not quite, and Pam realised that before she could really hurt him and, yeah...
Or did I read that completely wrong? LOL. Either way, fantastic work. I loved it.
Author's Response: you read it exactly right! thanks for your feedback.

Aww, I liked Ben! But obviously, I like Jim more. And I love his very forward approach to planning out their relationship!
Author's Response: i like ben too. rni really think that one school of thought on jim & pam's relationship is that there's no waiting necessary. what do they need to know? they're compatible. they get along - even amidst hardship. so what should stop them from just getting to it? rnwell a roomful of writers will stop them, obviously :)

Yeah... this was sooo cute. Pam needed to be around other people so she would truly KNOW, ya know? Good job.
Author's Response: i definitely don't think this is the only theory on this - but i'd like to believe that pam got some action in s3, ya know? :)

Great and sweet, and yeah, whispering while you're kissing and smiling feels exactly like that...
Author's Response: oh, that was one of my favourite parts. thanks!

I have to agree with the others, this is a stand out line and probably one of my favorites in all JamFiction: but she suppresses that urge because that’s not the only way she wants them to be.
Thank you for saying that.
Author's Response: one of your favourites in all of jamfic? wow! what an honour. thank you!

Oh, this was soo great! And the femmslasher in me got a kick out of the Jessica one. The Jammer in me also really enjoyed the last one. They were pretty much all fantastic. But back to the Jessica one, I was hoping you might consider posting this on a LJ community I run: officegirlslash. Just a thought. Excellent job!
Author's Response: i'm glad you enjoyed! you know, i am definitely into femslash in general, but i haven't been able to get into it in this fandom. i'll check it out, though. thanks for the feedback.

It's funny that you mention that about the third date because I was thinking of Kissing Jessica Stein while I was reading it. And you're right, it's totally FIERCE. Tyra Banks fierce, in fact.
And if you know a Ben, or a sort-of-Ben, then why exactly haven't you snatched him up?
Loved this, BTW, especially the Roy date. :)
Author's Response: :::sigh::: i love things that are tyra bank fierce. i'm glad you enjoyed! i think if the office has taught me anything, it's that office relationships... are... awful and killer. i'll probably stay out of it :)

I loved this line:
The closer she gets, the more she just wants him.
Ben had a lot of the qualities she loves in Jim, but Pam realizes that there is no substitute for the guy she really wants.
And we have another first date fic where the food just falls to the wayside....ha!
Author's Response: i'm glad you enjoyed! ben was a treat to write. in some other world, perhaps she'd pursue him - but that's no world i want to live in :)

Best waste of an eggplant parmesan -- ever.
A favorite line: "she suppresses that urge because that’s not the only way she wants them to be." And of course the underwear choice.
Author's Response: well i hate to waste a perfectly good eggplant parm, but, it was a worthy sacrifice to the sex. thanks for the feedback!

Pam turns her head slightly, just a little, to look at him out of the corner of her eye. She notices that her first impulse is to dismiss him via a joke (Oh yeah? Special occasion, Halpert?), but she suppresses that urge because that’s not the only way she wants them to be.
Brilliant.
Author's Response: thanks! i'm glad everyone seemed to like that part - it was one of those moments that popped out of nowhere and really worked.

Author's Response: thanks! god, isn't it great? makes me want to watch it again...
