Dwight and Angela's exchange over the body of an increasingly panicky Jan are definitely the highlight of this story for me, but it's darn funny overall.
Any memory of where you were headed with this one?
Author's Response: Oh, I think Michael was going to show back up and off they'd go to the hospital, to be a happy family. I was waaaay off of where the Michael/Jan/baby storyline was headed.
If I remember right, I trailed off on this one because it didn't get a lot of reaction, and it was always hard for me to sustain too much plot over several chapters (you may have noticed. Ha!), so I stopped. It's too bad, because reading it now I think the tone is pretty good and it would have been fun to see it resolved. Thanks for thinking it was funny-- I think people liked my fluffier stuff better but I always loved being funny. I mean, it's a comedy... ;)

:) I enjoy this story quite ardently. I love how Kevin and Oscar were googling childbirth. :P Crazy. This is a very well-written story--good work!
Author's Response: Thank you! I hope to have time to finish it up tomorrow.

OMG, they wouldn't have something like this happen on the show, would they? Would they?
In the meantime, I am dying to see where the hell Michael is. You'd think when Jan got close to the end, he'd be all attentive and never leave her side. Or is he off to try to find the baby's daddy? Poor Jim and Pam. Scary Jan is now Irrationally Scary-in-Labor Jan.
Author's Response:
Well they might. But I'm notoriously bad at predicting, so I doubt it!
Thanks for reading and taking the time to comment- I really appreciate it. More soon!

The best part of that kind of an ensemble scene is that I can totally picture it. Like, why is Stanley even there if he's not going to look up? But he totally would shuffle over anyway! Hee!
Author's Response:
I'm glad that seemed plausible; I was trying to get everybody together but they usually have those sorts of scenes in the conference room, which is taken. Thank you!

I already told you I love the Safety Officer bit but the whole Dwight and Angela exchange really is spot on. And I love Pam's list of all the places she's called. Can't wait to find out where Michael really is!
Author's Response: Thank you! I liked Pam's list, myself; Michael really does have a sort of odd but limited range. And Dwangela is just fun to write.

It's hard to remember sometimes just how lovely Melora really is because Jan is such a scary harpie. So I liked that detail.
Author's Response: She totally is, isn't she? But Jim's a guy- I think he probably still notices. Hee. Thank you so much for the comment; you know what it means to me (hahaha).

That's a real fun premise! :) I'm glad to see you've written something new.
Author's Response: Thank you! I decided I wanted to go for something fun- my last two efforts have been more on the angsty side. Thanks for commenting, I always appreciate it.

"You don't want her doing that in the conference room" bahahahaha! That was so Kev! Great story. Can't wait to see who saves the day!
Author's Response: Thank you so much! I love Kevin. He's fun to write for (in small doses!). Thanks for reading- I'll try to finish it soon!

This is so horrifyingly funny.
Author's Response: Yay! That is exactly the tone I was looking for. Now I'm excited about finishing (it's always nerve-wracking to put yourself out there, no matter how many times you've done it!). More soon!

Pam grimaced. “I think that means it’s time to find a catcher’s mitt.” Priceless : )
Author's Response: Oh, thank you! I re-wrote Pam's reply about a zillion times before I found one that seemed right. I'm glad I chose wisely!
