I loved how you let Karen happen before bringing Pam and Jim back together. This was beautifully written...it'll be saved in my favourites.
Author's Response: I'm not going to pretend she doesn't exisit - but I'm not going to let her win either. LOL! Thanks Luna!

All right, I gushed at TWoP, and I'll do it again here: Wow. This is just gorgeous, xoxoxo! It's so realistic, first of all, in its simplicity; it's easy to go way over the top when you're writing the moment when these two finally get together (trust me - I've tried with much melodrama). But this is just succinct and perfect and beyond romantic. You should definitely venture into 'M' material more often, because you do it in such a....classy isn't the right word, but it'll have to do because my brain's still reeling a little from the squee. :o)
Seriously - love this. Just love it. Keep 'em coming! With stuff like this, I think I can wait for as long as need be for Jim to hurry up and get back to Scranton!
Author's Response: Awww! You're too sweet. And I don't really know how "M" it actually is but I'll see what I can do. Thanks girl7!

Woohoo! Doesn't sound much like Pam, but definitely sounds like Jim!
Author's Response:
I don't know - maybe it is Pam. Maybe Pam's going to shock the hell out of all of us when she's in the same room with Jim again.
I guess we'll have to wait and see!!!

I loved the fact that you wrote this! I was worried when you made the comment about the difference between the malls that this story was going to be about Karen at first. But it's all Pam, yea. The curve-hugging sweater, the tiny fishnet stockings (nice!) So sexy .... too bad the cameras will never show us this.
Author's Response:
My dear GreenFish - I can never truly say NEVER but it will be a cold day in hell when you'll find me writing a story where Pam doesn't wind up taking Jim's mind completely off of anyone or anything else in the vicinity - and that includes any and all chic Connecticut chicks.
Just so we're clear. ;)
And yeah - sigh. Too bad.

Wow, this was so sexy and sweet. And this line was a favorite- "It echoed in his ears, made him slightly dizzy and it was then that Jim realized nothing that truly mattered had gone missing."
Author's Response:
You and McGigi need to hang out together - since you referenced the same line back to back. LOL! ;)
Glad you liked it kaystar!

Rock on! I love this SO much! it's just a perfect happy ending. I love how Pam gives Kelly credit for helping, but my favorite, favorite part is this- Despite all that was different the sound of her laugh when his fingers trailed the inside of her thigh and traced the back of her knee was purely, utterly, simply Pam. It echoed in his ears, made him slightly dizzy and it was then that Jim realized nothing that truly mattered had gone missing.
That's just lovely.
Author's Response:
Thanks McGigi! See I'm thinking Pam might be a tad ticklish. ;)
I'm all for happy endings. I simply won't have it any other way.

Okay, this story was awesome.
My main comment is about this:
" I feel like I'm quickly becoming a one-shot expert. How the hell am I going to concentrate enough to write 50,000 words in November???? 50,000 non-Jim & Pam related words no less????? Not going to be easy."
Are you particpating in NaNoWriMo? If so, ME TOO! If not and that just sounds like gibberish, I apologize. Move on, there is nothing to see here...
Author's Response:
Well thank you.
And yes. There's a bunch of us NaNoWriMo-ers hanging around these parts (and over on TWoP). Email me (check my profile) and we can keep track of each other if you'd like. I fear I'm going to need all the help and encouragement I can get!!!!!

*Cries* I. Love. This. They need to be together. Now. But if it can't be now. then this fic will do more than suffice. It is so beautifully written and so romantic and so exactly how I want them to turn out.
Author's Response: Heee!!! Thanks!! That's how I feel too. If the writers insist on keeping them apart - gosh darn it I'm going to keep putting them together!

I feel like I've received a gift. This captures the intensity of their connection wonderfully. And "sugar coated lemons"? Brilliant.
Author's Response:
Well it was intended to be a present to all those in need of a happy ending so I'm glad to see it worked. Thanks Lis!
It does not hurt that no less than 3 ask.com commercial played while I proofread this story. ;)

You rock. This was just adorable and sexy and gah-why aren't these two just doing it already?? Hee, sorry, did I say that out loud? Everything was great, and I especially loved the last line. Yay, thank you for this present :)

Yeah. WHY AREN'T THEY?????
I'm glad you liked it. It was my pleasure. ;)

If memory serves, didn't you once claim not to be so good at writing the steamy? I think you just made a liar of yourself. And this steam has a heart - my favorite variety. Jim needing to leave the restaurant immediately? The stocking/teeth action? Stumbling into her apt? Fear of falling back into a cavernous crater? It's all good. Will re-read to fortify myself for the next episode.
Author's Response:
OK then.
I wanted him to be moved to take action pronto and I'm embarrassed at how clearly I envisioned the stocking scene.
HA! The "cavernous crater" is due to my addiction to the thesaurus. It was gaping hole originally but I got carried away.
Thanks so much Colette. Truly. Your reviews are always so thoughtful.

That's probably the most romantic sex scene I've ever read. And I love the last line!

Wheeeee!!! Although I KNOW these two will end up together, the last few episodes have left me a little blue. This was the perfect antidote!

I'm not sure how to describe this story, but it was good! :) I like new and improved Pam; this is just fun to read. This was awesome:
I'm so sorry it took me so long to tell you but Jim, I really thought you should know.”
She’d sucked in a breath, licked her lips nervously and sighed.
“It's always been you."
The words had barely left her lips when Jim called the waitress back and cancelled their entrees.
Author's Response:
I honestly don't know how to describe it either. It was simply a device to combat the nagging doubts that keep springing up about how things will end up.
At least in my world - they end up with Jim being too turned on to finish his dinner. :)

Mm-mm-mm. This...
The words had barely left her lips when Jim called the waitress back and cancelled their entrees.
...YUM. Of course the line about his teeth and her hosiery caused a little squee before that, but Jim wanting to get out of the restaurant immediately? Yup.
Nice one :)
Author's Response:
I'm not just going to sit by and let that bitch in CT have him.
Sorry. Did I say that out loud? Was that a little to irrational? LOL!
Thanks Shan. Glad you liked it. :)
Author's Response: or make that - too irrational. That is what I get for making my obsessive delusions public. ;)

Okay, so I have to tell you, when I saw the summary for this (saw that you had written something new, saw the rating and the warnings) I had high, high hopes for this. In fact, I'm pretty sure I said, "Yes!" outloud and pumped my fist.
And guess what? This met, nay, exceeded my wildest expectations. So adorable and sexy, and the line about him taking off her tights with his teeth was a pleasant surprise. So many little details that I loved, really. You're just too good.
Author's Response:
Hee!
That image is a nice one isn't it? I'm glad you liked it.
