Man, this must have been... really quite a moment.
Author's Response: It is hard to describe what the energy was like around here the summer after Casino Night. Hundreds of fics were about to be made canon(ish) or AU.

Oh wow. Okay, so, I chose this one to be the last one I read (for now, I do have to pretend to have a life), and this turned out to be the perfect one. Its so great, it combines all the senarios I love (and some I don't), and it just, it works so well and it takes you back into that split second in which it totally is awesome.
Author's Response: Thank you! Wow, I'd sort of forgotten this one. What an exciting time that was, when we didn't know yet what was going to happen and the fic world exploded with possibilities. Thanks for reminding me of what started me writing this pairing in the first place. I was shocked to see this blast from the past on the front page! :)

Very nice job, lis!
Author's Response: Thanks! It figures that they managed to sneak in a scenario I didn't include, precisely. :)

I echo the worthy-of-emerging-from-lurkdom comments! What a great range of emotions, ideas, thoughts, and feelings. Excellent idea!
Author's Response: Thank you so much! Welcome!

That was lovely. I'm a super-big-time lurker, and yours is the first that I've commented on. Great job of summing up the summer of speculation!
Author's Response: Oh, welcome out of lurkerdom! It's an honor to be your first comment. I'm so glad you enjoyed it, thank you!

What a wonderful idea! I loved being reminded of all the stories that were written this summer, and all of the breathless speculation about which option we'll actually see play out.
And your writing here was incredibly graceful in its simplicity. Beautiful structure; there were several times that I caught my breath at the sweetness or poignancy of certain lines. Such as the contrast of Jim being a teacher v. suicide case and Pam being an artist v. a receptionist. always. (that "always" was perfect in its sad wistfulness)
Lovely, lovely fic!
Author's Response: Thank you so much, that's really sweet of you!

Wow, that made me tear up. Absolutely amazing!
Author's Response:
Thank you! Sorry about the tears. :)

What a great fic and wonderful synopsis of the summer. Very well don. This is one of my new favorites.
Author's Response: Oh, thank you! Whatever happens, and however we feel about it, I'll always treasure the creativity of this summer of suspense!

Aw! So many possibilities! And you expressed it so wonderfully.
Author's Response: Thank you very much!

Yep, I think you got them all! :-P
I can't wait to find out!
Author's Response: Hee, thanks! I can't believe we're going to finally know!

That was the perfect summary of what's going on in every single JAM fan's heads right now. Nicely done.
Author's Response: Thank you!
Date: September 18, 2006 04:30 pm Title: Chapter 1
So, does this mean you are going to write a new fic for every line? Please?! ;)
Amazing. Just took my breath away.
Author's Response: Wow, thank you! Nope, I think the amazing stories that inspired every line have it more than covered. :)

What an amazingly perfect way to wrap up the summer. I think you've managed to incorporate just about every piece of speculation and fanfic that I thought about, read, obsessed over this summer. Wonderful. I can't wait to find out what actually happens. Because I have hope too.
Author's Response: Thank you! I tried to cover all the bases because everything has been so great. We'll know in a few days...!

In that moment, for one last moment, he had hope.
Amazing line.
Fantastic! As I read this, I had a fast montage of images flashing, as though Jim's future were flashing before his eyes. What a great tribute to the stories that have made up our summer. Thank you, Lis!
Author's Response:
I'm glad you liked that line, because I meant it as a not-so-subtle shout-out to my favorite story of the summer. *ahem*
Thank you for the inspiration!

That was just perfect imagery. I just realized I really need to catch up on old stories! Damn this having to work for a living.
Author's Response: There's some amazing stuff waiting for you. Thank you!

And there is the wrap up of what I did on summer vacation. That was awesome!!!
Author's Response: Ha! It's like a report! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Sex on his desk sounds very appealing. "A suicide case" broke my heart.
This is lovely.
Author's Response: I tried to run the gamut. Thank you!

Lis - that was amazing. I loved it - held my breath till the end because the images just swirled around my head. It was just...extra awesome!
Author's Response: Oh, thank you!! I'm so glad it worked. This summer has been a whirlwind of fiction, after all!

This is my first review at MTT (sorry everyone, I'll get on it)...and this totally rocks. I loved it.
Author's Response: It's an honor to be your first. Wait, does that make me your Roy? (Feel free to leave me for Jim). Thank you!

Perfect coda to all the hopeful, sad, silly, angsty, realistic, sexy, farfetched, romantic, desperate, funny, poignant, endless speculation that's gone on this summer in JAM fanfic-land. I think we can all recognize bits from our stories in your piece...great idea!
Now, I'm just hoping the actual writers will do us all one better. I have faith - am cautiously optimistic. Fingers crossed all the same.
Author's Response: Thank you so much! My fingers are crossed, too!
Date: September 18, 2006 02:39 pm Title: Chapter 1
I labsolutely oved this! What an awesome idea you had to write it like this - way to go. And you need to give yourself a pat on the back too as you have written some awesome fic yourself!
Author's Response: Thank you!! It's been so much fun to be writing again. I didn't realize how much I had missed it.
Date: September 18, 2006 02:35 pm Title: Chapter 1
Perfect! I can't wait for Thursday, but on the other hand, I loooove all the possibilities right now.
This made me do a Kelly-giggle. :)
Y
Author's Response: I'm glad you liked it! It has been so much fun to speculate- I'm so nervous about Thursday I could scream.
Date: September 18, 2006 02:30 pm Title: Chapter 1
This is the perfect fic to cap a summer of speculation! :) It was a fun time, wasn't it? I can't wait to see what comes next.
Author's Response: Thank you! I felt like this summer deserved a memorial. A JAM memorial, of course!
