How on earth did I miss this? So sweet, so sad. Seriously, is there a petition to Bring Back Holly? I'd sign, and I'd attach this story as a reason why- because this relationship was fun, and funny, and humanized Michael in a way that was healthy and joyful. You capture something lovely, here.

Aww, thanks so much! Yes, Holly was "the best thing to happen to this office since World War II". LOL. No, seriously, Holly and the Holly/Michael relationship was my favorite thing about this show for the past 3 seasons. Holly really needs to come back.

Yes! A Holly story!
I like how you write her. That she knows in some ways that its silly, they were only together 2 weeks before she left, but it hurts more than it should. Because they really were oddly right for each other.
.... I think I should be scared. Because I think I want a Michael. Because of this line:
'Ha ha, that's kind of cute right now, but I hope you're not this weird all the time.'
*shivers*
That sounds exactly like Michael, just FYI.
Can we just have this happen over the break? Pretty please. I want Amy Ryan and Holly back so badly.
Author's Response: Thank you!
I'm a bit confused about what you mean by that line sounding like Michael... I don't now if you misunderstood what I intended (I was referring to other guys Holly dated that didn't quite appreciate her quirks), or if you mean that the line describes what other people might also think about Michael...

This is a lovely poignant story, Puffing. You did a great job balancing the silly with the sad. How like Michael to want to immediately jump in the car and drive off to Nashua! And, duh, I totally forgot that the reason he wouldn't realize Toby was back was that he was avoiding the annex. Silly me.
No spoilers or anything, but it would be great if Holly surprised Michael by showing up at Jim and Pam's wedding/reception. Because you just know that he'll be missing her dreadfully in such a setting. We can only hope!
Author's Response:
Thank you! I'm glad the story came across how I wanted it to.
And yeah, in "Frame toby", when Michael was on the phone with Wallace, he said that he hadn't known Toby was back because "He sits in the annex and I don't go back there anymore because that's where Holly worked and I loved her."

This was so lovely! You balanced Holly's goofiness and sensibility really well here. Their dialogue was really in character too. I hope you continue this; I would love to see them together for Christmas!!
Author's Response: Thank you!

I like to pretend that Michael isn't spending Christmas alone...Great story! I really hope Holly comes back one of these days.
Author's Response: Thank you!

The thought that Michael would be spending Christmas alone never entered my mind but you're right, who would he spend it with? Too sad. You've done a great job writing Holly. Even though she was only in a handful of episodes I can imagine her having a hard time getting over Michael. They are perfect for eachother. This phone conversation made me happy for them.
Author's Response: Thanks a lot! It's good to have validation that I didn't toally botch Holly's character. lol.
