As a fan of Toby/Kelly on the down low, this one stings. A lot. And feels very true to their characters.

Hi!!! I know I already reviewed on LiveJournal, but... I love this story so much that I had to review it twice! Not only does it contain a shout out to me in the chapter notes, but it's also an extremely in character Toby fic, which is rare and I absolutely love Toby fics, but it contains some of the awesomest Kandy hints ever! I've read that last bit over and over and over and I squee every time! So perfect, how she just gets this huge smile when Andy approaches her desk, and their little inside joke about the coffee, and poor Toby's heart getting kicked in the crotch as he watches them. Oh, so perfect! And so beautifully written. I LOVE IT!!!

It's so nice to get another review from you! :) You're a doll! And I'm really happy that the Kandy bits make you happy -- I figure, maybe we just need to get everyone's feet a little wet with this Kandy thing, you know, just a little tiny bit here and there, and maybe we'll bring more people over to the cause! Because there is just not enough Kandy in the world, my dear, although we have you to thank for much of what DOES, thankfully, exist! :D
And I'm so glad you thought Toby was in character because I really wasn't sure when I was writing it, if maybe I just interpreted Toby a certain way, though some extremely personalized lens or something. So thanks so much for saying that!

Aww, Toby!! Always the sad sack... and the unwitting match-maker in this as well. But I was secretly hoping for some Kandy, so that's good too. I wonder if Regular!Kelly, Despondent!Kelly or WomanScorned!Kelly will be most annoying? I guess we'll find out in THREE DAYS!!! Nice job, lianhanshee!
Author's Response:
Woooo! Kandy-lovers of fandom, unite! I think I'm almost as excited to find out how Kelly is doing as I am to find out about Jim and Pam's "date"! Three days! Woooooo!
And thanks so much for your comments! I felt bad for Toby, too. Poor guy can't catch a break. ;) Glad you enjoyed it, lisahoo!

This is really good. I like how Toby gradually comes to appreciate Kelly. The rest of the office is integrated into the story really well with the lost customers subplot, and all the Ryan-being-the-boss stuff.
And then poor Toby - he's "always the bridesmaid, never the bride." Plus, he did all the work to get Kelly back to 'normal,' and then Andy swoops in and grabs her. How appropriate for Toby, really.
Good job!
Author's Response:
Wow, thanks! I'm glad you liked it, and thought it was appropriate for Toby -- I totally agree, and couldn't help but hit him in the grief bone. Poor guy.
Thanks for reviewing! Glad you enjoyed it.

Author's Response:
Ugh, I know! Poor guy! (But lucky Andy, right!?!) ;)
Thanks for reviewing! Glad you enjoyed it.

This was so good. It was sweet and my heart breaks for Toby a little bit at the end. Poor Kelly, poor Toby.
Great job! I really enjoyed this.
Author's Response: Aww, thanks! Glad you enjoyed it! Yeah, my heart broke a little for Toby too.... just as he's starting to feel a little bit more for her, she bounces back with someone else (although my Kandy-loving heart is somehow okay with that. Hee). :)

Awesome. Write more.
Author's Response:
Thanks, man! Glad you enjoyed it. And I'm finishing a post-S3 Ryan fic that should be posted before the premiere... stay tuned!

Wow. This was fantastic, just a perfect portrayal of Kelly after the breakup, and how Toby sees Kelly and the rest of the office [the description of that meeting - with Michael crying and Jim pretending to calm things down while goading Dwight - was great!], and the dynamic of the annex, and just everything. I especially loved Kelly's description of her relationship with Ryan, it's one of the best I've seen. That's absolutely how she would see things.
Author's Response:
Wow, thanks so much! That is really, really flattering. Glad you enjoyed it!
