This was a great way to tie up the story. I loved reading it from beginning to end.
I don't know what a happy ending is. Life isn't about endings is it? It's a series of moments, and…it's like if you turn the camera off, it's not an ending is it? I'm still here, my life's not over. Come back here in ten years, see how I'm doing then. Because I could be married with kids, you don't know. Life just goes on.
I love this reference to the UK The Office.
This was just awesome.

Just absolutely beautiful, M. I'll miss it.

Ok, I'm going to totally embarass myself by saying this, but I got a little teary eyed at the end there. I mean, I didn't actually cry or anything, but I felt the stinging. I'm gonna miss this story. And I LOVED that you included stuff from the British Office. It really does fit together quite nicely.

Gah. I am having trouble finding my words. Soooooooooo gooooooooooood.

Dear lord the angst! This has GOT to be cleared up! Although I wouldn't be opposed to Jim and Pam running away to Chicago and living happily ever after since it's my favorite city on Earth. Could Jim ever be a Cubs fan?

PAM! Get in your car & go to Philadelphia! NOW!
Love this: that monumental night in our lives has a fucking title -- gah! So true!
Thanks for updating so quickly. {{{{HUGS}}}}

This has definitely become my top "is it updated yet? how about now? ... now?" story. I'm in suspense here!
And this part:
I wanted it to be you so badly. I didn’t want to have that kind of connection with anyone else. I didn’t want anyone else to understand me the way she did. The night we…you know? Got a little carried away? It was all you. You were who I saw. It was you I wanted to touch. I wanted you, Pam.
Yowza. That whole part of the conversation was so intense and sad and hopeful at the same time. So... I think it's great. Thanks for writing :)

I sat down tonight to study for a philosophy exam I have coming up on Monday. I have all my notes spread out, books and highlighters in hand, but I remembered I need to send an email to my mom. I open the internet and the MTT recent page opens, too (it's one of my homepages). And BOOM, there you are with a new chapter, and BOOM, there go my notes to the side as I lean forward to devour every word on the page. Twice.
SO good! I love the tension you've maintained throughout this story, and your handling of the characters is so thoughtful and delicate. You really have a lot to be proud of here, and I know we're all on the edges of our seats, still leaning forward, waiting to see what happens next! -CH

Okay, I can't remember if I reviewed your last chapter or not, but if I didn't it was great... I like the way you wrote this, and I can't wait for Jim to find the yogurt lid... Although, I do think it's somewhat silly they were talking online when they could be talking on the phone (what both seem to want to do more). I don't know! but i'm ready for the next chapter!

Is it a little pathetic that I stayed up this late, hoping for a new installment, especially when I have to be up in 5 hours?? If it pathetic, then I am just happy being that way. I loveloveLOVE the way you incorporated elements from the season that we've known and adjusted them to fit. It really works, and when this story ends, I will be so very sad.

Aaahhh!!! I can't believe I'm at the end of Ch. 20 already! Thank you for doing such an artfull, thoughtful job with this story. You've done a fantastic job of integrating real events and dialogue with the AU storyline (Pam's speech, in particular). Most impressive. Oh, and in case we don't see him or hear from him again, Brian was a great character. He was just what Pam needed; a much better choice than Roy. :) Thanks again--can't wait to see what comes next!

Ouch! Boy this chapter was a tough one to read. It hurts my heart (and my grief bone) to see Jim be so overtly cold to Pam. But, as ever, your writing of this story rocks. Good job.

Great story so far! I'm not even halfway through the posted chapters yet and I can tell I'm going to sit here until I've read them all. Seriously, terrific attention to detail, and Pam's and Jim's voices are spot on. Okay, going back to read now! :)

So, I don't know what kind of magic you do, exactly, but this... this is amazing. You've basically reinvented one of the greatest episodes (for me), in a most perfect way. Fantastic merge of cannon events with AU, and a lovely online community you've invented here, as well. Bravo!!
And, you know, can you just write the rest all in about the next 10 minutes? I'm dying here...
Author's Response: Wow. Thank you so much for the kind review. I'm so glad you liked it. I actually tried working on the story during some off time today and just couldn't get it to flow. Maybe I'm having a hard time getting in JIM's head. I hope to have something for all of you soon!
Date: November 14, 2007 04:16 am Title: WTG!!!!
Wow! *NICE*! My only problem was that it was a little confusing at the end. I thought Pam was whispering all of that to Jim, but then PamPong (haha) knew what she'd said. Then I went back and I thought maybe you meant she was typing it all in the chat, which makes a bit more sense and is actually really cool--I love how you incorporated Beach Games into it so well. I can't wait to see what the fruits of the blinking cursor are! Maybe tonight or tomorrow? Hehe! I LOVE THIS STORY! its seriously my guilty pleasure.

goodness i LOVE this story.. with only 2 chapters left I can't wait to see where it goes :x
