So, if you don't have anything to do right now, you should totally continue these. I really love them--they're so in character and heartbreaking and realistic and just fantastic. Please? Please do more? =) =) =)
Author's Response: I had actually forgotten all about these little things and I would very much like to continue them when everything settles down a bit. Thank you for bringing them back to my attention and for your lovely review (:

Wow, you really captured the voices of Jim and Pam very well. Great story!

I loved this line: "he decides he'd rather not live his life a second time."
That is why the characters will never see themselves on tv.
Well done!
Author's Response: I'd actually forgotten all about that line, but I do think it explains a lot. I started thinking about why they haven't seen the show, realized all these things. But then I was like, "Well, would I want to relive the day I told the guy of my dreams I'm in love with him and he rejected me--twice?" And no, I would not. I would like to see that tape burn, actually. Hence the line. Thank you for reviewing :D

I really like this story. i think this is a great chapter. It is different compared to the first two, but the change isn't dramatic enough to make bad. It is actually a really good chapter. I like this part a lot...
"Later, we connected again over Dwight. Wow. We connected over Dwight. That was just too great, you know? I'll have to think of something great for tomorrow . . . nickels or crayons? Remind me to ask you later."
I hope you continue this soon.
Author's Response: Aha, I had to reference Conflict Resolution. The pull was too strong. Thanks!

This is my favorite chapter so far. I think you really capture the emotions Jim must have felt during these moments. I especially like this line:
"He should have . . . well, obviously you and he are already . . . I would have still said you.
I'll always want you, Pam."
Very beautiful in a heartbreaking way. I hated Roy for saying Angela and I know Jim would have said Pam because she is all he wants. I'm really looking forward to the next chapter!
Author's Response: Really? I'm not sure how I feel about this chapter, but I'm so glad you enjoyed it. I'm still kind of in shock that people actually like my writing.

I'll never forget the look on your face when Roy said Angela. The veiled . . . disgust? What was it?
He should have . . . well, obviously you and he are already . . . I would have still said you.
I'll always want you, Pam.
Oh, my heart! :( Lovely job, elliehalpert.
Author's Response: I HATED Roy when he said that. With a fiery passion. Who says they'd do someone else with their fiancee standing right next to them? I really appreciate you taking the time to review!

I think you've got a good handle on S2 Pam here. When my wife and I watch S2, we argue about which exact moment is the one when Pam realizes that she feels more than friendship. It's not that easy to pick out. You've done a great job capturing that S2 feel here. I can't wait till you next one!
Author's Response: I kind of think that Pam always knew she wanted more with Jim, but blew it off as close friendship (shown here), lust, or downright craziness. Or she just repressed it completely. The Fire is next! I'm so excited.

I like this. I like Pam's confusion. Really love this paragraph. I think it perfectly describes Pam's dilemma/frame of mind in S2:
It's because they're friends, she tells herself. Best friends. It makes sense. In elementary school, you always had two best friends--one you told certain things, the other you told certain things, but not usually the same things. You trusted different friends with different information, allowed them to enjoy different moments with you. She has Jim, and she has Roy. Two best friends, one lover. Roy knows her better than anyone, except for the parts Jim knows.
Author's Response: Thank you! I wish I had more ways to say thanks, since it's getting kind of dry. But oh well. rnrnThat was really the ONLY way I could think of to phrase Pam's feelings in a way that makes ANY sense, because I really don't understand her at all a lot of the time. But I'm glad I succeeded.

Author's Response: Thank you :) I just sent in a new chapter so we'll see when it actually shows up x]

Very nice. I love stories that go back and add to older episodes, so I'm looking forward to the rest of this one! Thanks!
Author's Response: Thanks to you as well :D I love them too, seeing what happens after the episode and really feeling the characters. I'm looking forward to the rest too x]
