I wasn't sure I was going to like this, but I really, really do. I love the love/hate relationship you're setting up here.
I also like this alterna-Jim Halpert. He's interesting. And bonus! Just as hot as the real Jim Halpert/John Krasinski.
My imagination thanks you. :DD
ETA: Just curious. Hobbit's Glen, Maryland? How'd you come up with that?
Author's Response: lol real place. Looked up towns in Maryland on google and found a directory and there it was and...i couldn't resist... Thanks for reviewing I'm glad you're liking this one! And I'm glad your imagination is having a good time.

i just need to tell you that i absolutely love this. i don't care if you are drunk when you write it :) it's one of my favorite stories right now, because it's just so DIFFERENT. i love how she's in love with him, but doesn't want to admit it and his defense mechanism is to be a giant jerk. but surely there's a happy ending here somewhere? hehe. b/c we always want jam. no matter what form it takes :) but seriously, great story. can't wait for more.
Author's Response: lol I'm so wasted! (jk jk) Yeah no there's definitely a happy ending in store, it might take me a few chapters to get there but it is on it's way. Thanks for reviewing and for liking this story in all of its strange and drunken glory!!! ;-)

he remembers he should be grinning down at her because, after all, this is his rocket science -- LOVE this freaky characterization of Jim! And I also love how his self-loathing is unraveling him, slowly but surely and you can see what's under the surface of the two of them.
Author's Response: lol "freaky" I love it. Yeah I'm so into this new self-hating Jim for some reason... thanks for reviewing, and reading, and sticking with the strangeness that is this story!

Now I am completely hooked. I really enjoyed getting to read what Jim was thinking or thinks about Pam.
So excited for more.
Author's Response: yep we had to find out Jim's pov. thanks for reviewing!

So good, Stablergirl!! This is the kind of Jam angst we don't get to see/read enough of, and I love it! Please update soon!
Author's Response: Agreed! I love taking huge and probably inappropriate liberties so that I can have them hate each other in this delicious kind of way ;-) Thanks for reviewing and sticking with this one so far!!
Date: March 17, 2008 07:40 am Title: I know I look pale but, seriously, I'm fine.
Okay, Stablergirl . . . you've got me hooked!!! Keep it coming! I love how Jim wants to be more Jim-like, that he is something more inside than he gives himself credit for. So interesting. Great job.
Author's Response: lol I love having people hooked! Thanks for reading and reviewing, and I love Jim wanting to be Jim too ;-) Who doesn't love that?
Date: March 17, 2008 07:24 am Title: It's not that I hate you, it's just that I hate everything about you.
I really like this! That Pam . . . me thinks she protesteth too much ;-) Off to read Chapter 2... Great job!
Author's Response: ah ha, definitely too much protestething ;-) thanks for reviewing!!

I am really enjoying this. It's a very refreshing break from our "JAM". I can see this as a Jim and Pam/John and Jenna parallel. Can't wait for more!
Author's Response: yeah it kind of is a Jam/John Jenna parallel I guess, except it's still jam they're just acting kind of like john and jenna and...see this is where my own story starts to confuse me... ;-)

sooo good...kinda weird, but good (and fyi...yes i am a As The World Turns fan, but it is filmed in NYC)...can't wait for more
Author's Response:
ugh fantastic to know! Thank you I'm changing that right now ;-)
Date: March 17, 2008 05:53 am Title: I know I look pale but, seriously, I'm fine.
Yes...very interesting! I'm really enjoying the way this is shaping up! And what a surprise to wake up on this gray Monday morning with not one but two chapters waiting for me! Weeee! Awesome, SG, and I can't wait to see what happens next!
Oh, and I totally love the way Jim takes out his frustrations on Pam. That combined w/ the passionate way she "hates" him are going to combine for a very potent explosion...
Author's Response: haha happy st.patrick's day, I guess, two new chapters! ;-) Yeah I love the self-destructing going on, so addictive. I'm off to write more right now, lol. Thanks for reviewing!
Date: March 17, 2008 05:37 am Title: I know I look pale but, seriously, I'm fine.
Most definitely hooked now, stablergirl.
Author's Response: yesssss
Date: March 16, 2008 10:02 pm Title: Pour me another one cause I'm feeling kind of sick.
Yes, I really want to hear Jim's POV! I am lovin' this, because even though it's a totally different kindof tension than usual, I really sense the sexual tension between J & P. Look forward to more!
Author's Response: yep the sexual tension is definitely there. ;-) Thanks for reading and definitely thanks for looking forward to more, that's always awesome.

“Stay cool, ma babies,” Michael croons, sitting down next to Toby who hands him a beer. Loved the Conan reference! This story has me hooked and I'm anxiously awaiting your updates!
Author's Response: lol yes i'm so glad you got the conan there!! I had it explained in my original version of this chapter and took it down because I wanted to see if anybody would figure it out and mention it! That's you!! lol thanks.

Not weird at all, just a different take on our 2 favorite characters! I'm hooked, can't wait to see what's next.
Author's Response: thanks! Glad you're reading and thanks for the review.
Date: March 16, 2008 08:15 pm Title: It's not that I hate you, it's just that I hate everything about you.
I LOVE THIS. There's nothing else to say; it's just awesome.
Author's Response: wow thank you! Glad you're on this kind of confusing but still really good journey with me ;-)

I LOVE IT! Keep the hostility going for a while!
Author's Response: lol yes because who doesn't love hostility?! I definitely do, clearly. ;-) We don't get to see these two be hostile very often.

Despite your warnings, I actually really liked this. It's fresh take on another aspect of the show. I can't wait to see where your taking this!
Author's Response: lol despite my warnings. I have such self depricating chapter notes, don't I? God, I need to work on that. lol. anyway thanks so much for reviewing this one! Glad you liked it.

I read this because I was intrigued by the summary and once I started I was completely drawn in. It is a very interesting concept to write about.
I can't wait to see what happens next. Jim's POV, maybe a few more reveals on the other "actors" from the POV of Jim and Pam.
Author's Response: hmm ;-) yes and yes. thanks for reading and reviewing.
Date: March 16, 2008 05:51 pm Title: It's not that I hate you, it's just that I hate everything about you.
Yes, very weird. But I like it. And you know they couldn't hate each other for long -- they're too damn cute.
Author's Response: they ARE too damn cute. Glad you like this despite its weirdness, lisahoo! That's always a great compliment ;-)

Love the idea... so different. Can't wait for an update!

Ok-- I am in love with this story. I love the idea of AU Pam and Jim actors hating each other's guts outwardly while being attracted inwardly. Please put more up soon--- I don't care what other stories you're working on! I mean, I do b/c they're awesome, but still-- more please.
Author's Response: lol thanks I love th idea too, which is strange I guess but I just can't help myself. ;-) thanks for the review!

Oh! I just love this idea! So original, and your writing is very well done. I could totally see the nice boy Jim, as well as the flirty, sleezy Jim. I'm excited to see where this goes, and I hope you continue quickly! Nice work!
Author's Response: Thanks!! I'm excited to see where it goes too, although I guess as the writer I'm biased...

I really like this concept, Stablergirl. I like that you painted "Jim Halpert" as kind of a prick and he's a real guy. I know I'm not making much sense but I can't wait to read what's coming next!
Author's Response: I know what you mean, i get annoyed sometimes with the whole "Jim is perfect" routine, which is probably why I even started writing this in the first place. ;-)
