Aw! So sad, and yet kind of gives a sense of warmth. Because even though I think they're meant to be together, he definitely does have the strength of character to be okay if they can't be, and this was a beautiful way of showing that.
Author's Response: Thank you so much! Yes, I think they are meant to be together, as well. I just got really impatient and annoyed with Pam:)

Oh that was so heartbreakingly sad but I loved the last line. And Bitterpill - I agree 100% with your author's notes.
Author's Response: Thanks very much!! Oh, Pam. Why does she do this to us(and him)???

How sad. I want to hug Jim
Author's Response: Hee! Yes, so do I. Thanks for reviewing:)

I'm at the same place you are with Pam-so I thought this was great. Lovely parallel to his 12-year-old self and the Jim/Pam conversation was such a sad, sad moment but hopeful at the end for Jim.
In the episode I can really see Jim hearing about Pam's date as a turning point for him, so I thought this was spot-on.
Author's Response: Thank you so much! I am a huge JAM fan, and want them back together NOW, but my heart just broke(again)for Jim in this episode. Thanks for the review:)

I really like this. Nice parallel with Jim's 12-yr-old self. I love the ambiguity at the end of this line:
The tears were forming and his hands started shaking and he knew he had to end this now.
Author's Response: High praise from one of my favorites!! Thank you so much:) Yeah, it was time(in my mind)for Jim to say goodbye for good.

Ouch. This is very well done and I want to be happy for strong, moving-on Jim, but I can't because I don't want him to move on without her. I love stories that twist me up like this- brava!
Author's Response: Thank you so much! Ouch, indeed. I don't like the idea of Jim moving on without her either(trust me!), but he was just so sad and I needed him to make a clean break. Thanks for the review!!

Oh, Jim!
I'm mad at Pam too, so thanks for writing this.
Author's Response: Thank you for reading and reviewing!!! Silly Pam. She's just driving me crazy.

This is heart breaking but beautiful. Thank you for writing it.

I liked that. For some reason I am a sucker for Jim crying. Aw. And "Scott Crane"? Was that a nod to "Jonathan" by any chance. "SCOTT foley" and "noah CRANE"?
Author's Response:
YES!!!! That was a nod to our dear Scott:) Thanks so much for reading(and reviewing)!!

Oh my. Now you went and broke my heart again. What a lovely, sad, moment. And the precedent of Jim standing up to the 'enemy' is really intriguing and original. Thanks for this!
Author's Response:
Thank YOU so much!!! I appreciate the support from you, because I admire your work so much.

Oh, Jim. I can't believe Pam, either. I mean, Kelly's got to be persistent, but...come on! You've got a chance at Jim Halpert!
Author's Response:
I know!!! Good Lord, does it get better than Jim??? NO!! Thanks for reading and reviewing:)
