awwwww so adorable! This story was *perfect*. I love the end, with him calling her one more time for advice. :) I hope to see more from you!

Alright. While reading this fic, I was listening to Upside Down, by A-teens. It's the most adorable and cutest song EVER. So, you see, reading this fic and listening to that song at the SAME time, made it double cute and adorable.
I loved it. You know, the other FIRST DATE fic are so stereotypical. But this was so different it gave me this little grin on my face which I cannot rub off. I thought it was amazing and cute and adorable. You got a nice unique tone from each character. I can imagine each character talking the way you wrote it and, wow, I just loved it. I am thankful you didn't go too far and put any MA stuff in it because then I wouldn't be writing this at all. :P
It was A-W-E-S-O-M-E (say that like Kelly and you'll get more of a feel from it) I loveeed it and I hope to read more from you.
Author's Response: Well thanks! I hadn't read much first date fic, or any fic, at the point of writing this, and I guess that's a good thing. :) And for the record, it's not that I am opposed in anyway to Jim and Pam having some MA time, at all. I just really considered how I thought that first night would have ended. Turns out, it was just like this. :) So pleased you enjoyed the tale!

A-W-E...S-O-M-E...AWESOME, AWESOME is what you are. You're a first date superstar!...Seriously, it's been awhile since I've read a first date fic, but I think this is definitely one of the best. Just so real in terms of what they DID/DIDN'T do on their date and what they SAID/DIDN'T SAY. And I've said it already, but I'll say again that your voices are spot-on. This was a lot of fun! Thanks.
Author's Response: Wow...thank you so much! I'm not sure what else I can say other than that, over and over again!

I am amazed at how in character this entire thing was. It was funny, sweet, romantic and even a little sexy. I LOVED this so very much - and to me, it trumps all the first date fics and THIS is how it happened in my head.
Looking forward to more from you.
Author's Response: Thanks a lot! A little sexy is about the best I can do (luckily if anyone needed more after that it's easy to find here)! :) I'm really flattered...that's all I can manage to say!

Just reread the whole story. Perfect. In character, wonderful banter, the nerves, the awkwardness, the phone call game, Jim and Pam all the way. Great job. Looking forward to your next story, dear!
Author's Response: Thank you so much! I think that's Jim and Pam, at least at first - equal parts sweet and uncomfortable. :) Thanks for reading and so glad you enjoyed!
Date: September 03, 2008 05:11 pm Title: Chapter 5
I absolutely loved every single minute of this story! The banter is delicious and so very them. Please post more of your stories!
Author's Response: With a wonderfully worded review and request like this, how can I not? Thank you so much!

OK, I love every inch of this story. Most especially the Best. Pig Game. Ever. My sister and I were similarly obsessed with it back in the day. Bravo!
Author's Response: Thanks! And yess, Pass the Pigs is ah-mazing. Love it!

This was a really great chapter, in a really great story, Little Comment. I like how you gradually built up their comfort level, and that once they finally touched they couldn't seem to stop. The flirty little things - like him touching her shoulders, and her slapping his knee - SO true in situations like this.
Really well done, fic! Welcome to MTT!
Author's Response: Thanks, and thanks! Glad to be here! :) I did try to create that sensation of building throughout the story, so I'm really glad you mentioned it. I hoped that helped explain my no-sex choice - just like Jim said, it isn't morals. Isn't religion. They owed to each other. :) Thank you again!

Aww, Pam. How sweet. And I love the bantering tone they use here- they always do use humor to mask the hard parts, don't they? Great!

This is great. Absolutely wonderful. I like Jim freely admitting he made several dick moves when it came to Karen, but ultimately letting himself off the hook- it feels very much in-character for him. Yay!
Author's Response: Thanks a lot! Jim WAS a dick sometimes, but you just have to accept that and move on, I guess. Knowing is half the battle. ;)

What a lovely and sweet glimpse at their first date. I really liked the way you brought it full circle with the call at the end.
And as much as I love me some first-date smut, I think the way you wrote it here is much more realistic and true to the characters. This explanation really says it all:
"I also know that it just isn’t a great idea to start a relationship on that foot. It’s not a question of morals, it’s definitely not some religious issue, it’s just that…well, if what we have is real – and I believe with all my heart it is – there’ll be plenty of time for that in the days to come. I don’t want it to be a snap decision. I feel like we owe it to…us, I guess."
Would definitely love to hear more from you. Give the people what they want.
Author's Response: Oh Blanca...you don't want a sex scene from me. I PROMISE. I've been married four years and I still get embarrassed writing a make-out scene! I promise we're all better off! :) Thanks for taking the time to read and review!

This story is my absolute favorite of all the first date stories!!! And, I have to say, after awhile I was really sick of them. I didn't think I would end up reading this, but I'm so glad that I did. It's perfect! It's so adorable, so Jim and Pam. You really captured their characters and their relationship, too. And I loved the ending, especially. The phone calls were so sweet. Especially the last one. It just had me swooning. Thank you so much for writing this.
Author's Response: Favorite first date story? So adorable? Swooning? I simply don't know what to do other than sit here and blush. And say a hearty thanks, obviously. :)

I just found this after a bit of a hiatus from MTT and, what can I say, this is the perfect story to get me back into a JAM frame of mind.
I love this, you've really created a sense of what they're feeling throughout this. I felt nervous when they did, happy, hopeful, scared, content, whenever they did. Just lovely :)
Author's Response: Wow! I'm sorry I put you through an emotional roller coaster but I'm so glad you enjoyed the story! Thank you so much!

*Standing ovation* Outstanding work, Little Comment. This was an absolute pleasure to read. Truly can't wait to read more from you and soon!
Author's Response: Nan, Nan...you're far too kind. I shall be bringing more soon, but then again...can't I pull a George Costanza and always leave 'em wanting more? :) No...you're right. Besides, I'm way too egotistical. :) Thanks so much again!

Lovely story Little Comment. Well written and i especially enjoyed all the sweet little touches like the toast and pass the pigs.
Please post some more.

That was seriously an ADORABLE fic. It was so completely in character and sweet and I loved it =)
Author's Response: Well thank you, Flonkerton! I'm so thrilled that it was a worthwhile read! I'm not often fluffy...maybe I should try that more often. Or quit while I'm ahead. :)

That was awesome blossom - EXTRA AWESOME!!! Thanks for writing it. I love the hypothectical phone conversations. So great! You are a great writer and I loved it!!! I do wish he could have just spent the night holding on to her but it was just great. Sad to see this one end. Please write another one. You have a great talent.
Author's Response: Well thanks so very much! I will be bringing more here at some point so do stay tuned (or check out my ff.net profile and if you read anything there, say hello!). You are too kind and I'm officially blushing...yikes. :)

Guh. Still 12 kinds of adorable.
Love Jim's rationale about why not to sleep together right away, and that he has a TWSS in his interior monologue.
Nicely done, LC. Hope to see more from you in the future.
Author's Response: Seriously, Lisa, I need to get a list of these. I feel like I'm unknowingly tapping potential that, should I wield that power, I could take over the world! Insert evil laugh! Anyway, thanks so much...one of my great friends says "guh" is, like, the highest compliment, so I am flattered! And if you want more, I gots more...

Have *loved* what you've done with this story from beginning to end. You write very well and capture such a 'realness' with Jim and Pam. Job well done! :D Looking forward to reading more stories from you in the future!
Author's Response: Thanks so much! I'm so happy that you've enjoyed it...this story is so special to me, and reading sweet remarks like this just makes me happy. If you're serious about wanting more, I'd be glad to offer!

PTP is, like, the best travel game to bring camping EVER! I can't believe it's in this story- totally a Jim/Pam-type game and love that they got a DLJ :) A good omen for sure. Want to leave a more detailed review, will have to do that later. So enjoyable to read.
Author's Response: Thanks! God, and it's so nice to hear someone say that re: Pass the Pigs! I grew up with it, loved it and my husband HATES it. I never get to play anymore! :(

Seriously! look at you with the Scranton romantic hot spots! I'm loving all these photos and their romp through the city...and alright with the honesty! Woot! And although I'm loving the romp through the city, I'm looking even MORE forward to their time at his apartment...ahem...whatever they may choose to do there. :-)
Author's Response: Well gracias, LoveFool...I died at that treehouse. I ADORE it! And I'm sorry I didn't make it clear, but they're going back to HER apartment...FNB takes charge? We'll see...
