AHHHH, cliffhanger? This is so cute and so in-tune with their personalities. I hope the "new" Pam doesn't shut down the way the old Pam would have.

Cliffhanger!!! Please update soon! Pam's laughing email to "Big Tuna" had me rolling! I love this!

Eesh. And now it's serious! I'm so ridiculously excited to see what she says.

So I just had a really long review of this written out, but I'm dumb and made it go away. Grr. But, my rage aside, this is the most fun and just... YAY fic that I have read in a long time. I can't wait to see what they email next. Thanks so much for writing!

I have hope from the title that Pam will actually "learn" something because she's still very skilled at being vague. Go get that boy Ms. Beesley!

Author's Response: Yes, I hope she learned a bit from the last few months of being on her own.  She may just turn her 'vague' skills to her advantage as well.  :-)

Oooh intriguing! I'm enjoying this story - please continue!

Nice lead-in to the next chapter ;)

And it was so classically Pam. Play detached – play like you don't care – and then see if it gets a response. That way if he didn't reply, she could act like she never expected one.

Another great observation.

It just made her face the fact that she was living two lives - one with him in the office, Monday through Friday from 8 to 5, and then the other one that involved getting married to Roy.

Nice observation!

Perhaps it is a fun, flirty email game... leading to an eventual reunion... loved it!!!

I think Jim will be very happy to celebrate Yay for Pam Day with her. I wonder what her game is...

Reviewer: nqllisi Signed [Report This]
Date: September 26, 2006 03:45 am Title: Chapter 3

It's adorable, and also a little bit sad, that they're trying to re-connect on this light, teasing level when there is so much more they have to deal with. So realistic- I love it. Yay for Pam day, indeed!

Author's Response: I agree, and I think it rings most true to them that they do so.  My feeling is that they both are desperate for the reconnection, but don't want to rock the boat in any way.  But I don't think it's going to stay like that for ever.  I'm hoping Pam's going to surprise us all.  :-)

It is fun to have them communicating by email, anticipating each other's message.  Good kind of tension. :)

Author's Response: Thanks - I'm such a dork that I actually felt a little bit of that tension as I was writing it....  ;-)

Yay!!! I need more, lol!!!

I love the picture of the two of them sitting virtuously at their desks in empty offices, pretending to work but really just waiting for that email notifier!

Can't wait to see what the game is.

Wait--Jim calls her Miss Beesly--so he knows about the no-wedding, or is it just habit?



Author's Response: hmmm..... I guess we'll just have to wait and see!  ;-)

Desperate for more - I hope it comes soon!

He better be, because I'm definitely up for it. I can't wait for the new chapter.

I'm really enjoying this series!  Looking forward to the next chapter!

I'm loving how easily they've fallen back into (a semblant of) their old routine.

OK, I am officially giddy!  Love, love, love this.  It's very "them."  Thanks for the effort.

"But then why was this short email the best thing he could remember happening to him since he arrived?"  Awww, I'm so glad she sent him the email, and that he responded so quickly!  And smart of him to wait for her to make the first real move.

Jim is just so sweet.  Please update soon.

Author's Response:

Isn't he just?  :-)

A short (but hopefully enjoyable!) chapter 3 is now up.

"if laying his heart completely open met with the equivalent of “that's nice, but it's not enough” then he knew he could do no more."

I love the tone you're using for Jim here. He's calm, he's realistic, he's trying to move on, but he still loves her. So, so good.



Author's Response: Thanks! I've read some of your writing, so I take this as high praise indeed.  Hope you like Chapter 3.


Author's Response: Oh, I also believe that Jim has always been the more mature (less self-centered?) of the two.  I'm hoping that Pam learns to be more like Jim over the course of the story.

Poor Jim!  I could only feel sorry for him during GWH, stuck with all those boring hard workers.  Can't wait to see Pam's reaction.



Author's Response:

Chapter 3's up - hope you think her reaction is credible.  

thanks for reading and the comments!

No long wait please!  Let's hope she did that for real.

Author's Response:

I'm working on Chapter 2 today - so I hope to have it up on Monday

 Thanks for reading!
