This is just brilliant, one of the most well written stories on this site. It's hilarious and smart and romantic and just so well done. And with such an out of the box situation, nothing feels forced. Not in the slightest.
At first I thought all the business aspects of story would be way over my head, I haven't worked in over 14 years, but you managed to write it in a way that is smart but still very easy to understand.
I feel fairly confident assuming that this story was well planned out, probably to the end. Even in the very first chapter jim has already started thinking about ways to turn this Scranton acquisition into a better opportunity for himself professionally and personally. Jim and Pam’s development and characterization was written so well, the chemistry between them is outstanding and that is an odd thing to find in fanfic, characters written so well I can sense their chemistry. And then of course all the details and depth of each scene. It kills me that so much amazing work, time, thought went into this story and it hasn’t been properly finished. I’d love to know what happened when Jo arrived. How did jim and Pam convince her that they weren’t taking advantage. Does Jim end up getting the job up north overseeing the DM branches? Is Pam successful in training program? Does Pam meet the Halpert family? And how do they react to her? So many questions left unanswered.
From Jim working through his existential crisis to following the development of jim and pams relationship and all the acquisition story in between... this is one of very few stories that just sticks with me long after I read it and it just begs to be finished and marked complete.

Ahhhhhhhh how can you leave it like that, you little tease. I squee outloud when I see you have updated this.Honestly, one of my favourite stories ever. I am always so excited to see what you have planned. Pam arguing with Angela = awesome, that damn eyebrow thing LMAO :)
Author's Response: Tease? I think you misinterpreted - Pam just wants to talk somewhere in private, that's all. Seriously, HH, you have a dirty mind. ;)

Aw, I love this! It's been a few days since I've been here because of the hurricane, so I was so excited to see this was updated! My favorite part is
“Oh, that was … nothing. I… you’re mine, aren’t you?”
She chuckled. “I hope you’re not just realizing that, Jim.”
Can't wait for more!

Getting mighty interesting here! I'm glad you picked up with this story again. I'm looking forward to this afternoon's meeting with Jo ... and finding out what the hell is going on with Creed.

Argggggggggggh! I was so excited about this update, and it was worth the wait :)I can't believe Jo's on her way down. I fear for Jim lol. I love that he just told Pam he was in love with her, it's just, this is all so perfect.

Such a good chap, Jenny! The plot thickens. Once again, loved the glimpse inside Jim's overactive mind. I love how hard he's falling for Pam. Can't wait to find out what happens!
Date: August 21, 2011 11:55 pm Title: Chapter 13
Loved it! I'm glad Pam told Jim to fight back. I can't wait to see what they come up with. (And ohhhh, I hope you already know the answer to that. Writer's block right now would kill us readers!)
Date: August 21, 2011 10:32 pm Title: Chapter 13
Oh wow! What a fantastic chapter! There is SO much going on in it. Gosh Dwight and Angela are sneaky, nosy little twits! Don't they realize that Jim holds Angela's job in his hands? I mean, it's very realistic that he could still very well let her go since he can't imagine keeping more than one accountant AND she makes more than Oscar who IS competant to do the job! What a stupid move! Also, pretty ballsy to send it directly to the head of the company! UGH! Of course then we have Roy. Since Pam has now in fact left him, it's really not his business to grill her about her whereabouts, especially at her job and in front of coworkers. Maybe had he not made a habit of pulling crap like this, just maybe his marriage wouldn't have fallen apart. Of course there is the question of what in the world is Creed doing? I suspect that is simply Creed being himself and having no idea just what is going on. The most compelling thing in this chapter and what I have been waiting for has been both Jim and Pam's reaction to the email inviting Roy to Florida with Pam. I cannot tell you strongly enough just how much I adore how you handled it. First is the fact that rather than getting upset and clamming up, Pam immediately turned to Jim. Jim, rather than sitting and dealing with the problem by talking to the voice in his head, was creative in finding a way to get Pam alone in his office, a way that would not look suspistios, so they could work through it together. This is where I really love how it's handled. Jim is pretty single minded in his determination to both protect their new relationship and protect Pam. You really see the Jim we have all grown to know and love her, IMO, when he absolutely insists that if someone is going to take the fall for this, it will absolutely be him and not Pam. That is the kind of devotion that our Jim has really always had for Pam. I also love that in turn she insists that if it involves Roy going as well, she will absolutely turn down the training program. It's great though that even if it were to come down to Jim losing his job (which I suspect it won't since Jo has said just how much she loves 'that boy,' and really, aside from deciding not to fire Roy, at least not then, and really, he did still fire the number of people she demanded, so other than that, and the fact that they have some nosy coworkers, what have they done wrong?) anyhow, even if it did come down to the loss of Jim's job, like he has said, it's wearing him down. Maybe it would turn out to be not such an awful thing, though I still don't think it's going to happen. Actually, in thinking about it again, I think sometging is going to happen about Jim's job anyhow. I mean, with Jim and Pam as a couple, and Jim has already admitted first to homself and now to Pam basically that he intends to marry her, and I certainly believe that will happen. SO, I simply cannot see them being able to find happiness as a couple with him on the road so much. Maybe he'll be able to settle there like he was hoping in an earlier chapter. I'm hoping we'll get to 'see' Pam meet Jim's family and see if she wins them over both with her personality and if nothing else by just how happy and settled she makes Jim. It may be a little harder for her to do that if Jim were to lose his job because of all of this. I'm just SO so happy that the are talking about it and working through it together. Probably spending the entire weekend together really strengthened their new relationship.
I have a feeling that coming to Scranton will be a VERY eye opening experience for our Ms. Bennett. Maybe seeing first hand what Jim has been dealing with will help Jo appreciate the job Jim is ding there. Also, there's always a chance that seeing Jim and Pam together will help her to understand that they were meant to be together. I can't wait to see how things go when Jo arrives. Oh also, just wondering, is Pam going to just be staying with Jim at the hotel now? Seems to make sense that she would. Doesn't seem like she would go back to her home with Roy.
I just can't wait to see what else happens as this fantastic story continues to unfold.
I have to say, I waited SO anxiously for this last chapter, I could hardly wait and boy was it worth it! Truly a fantastic job!

I hate that we cannot contact the authors on here, other than reviewing. So, although this isn't a review, perse, it's an, OMG, did you really just say you liked Accidentally in Love? That just made my day. When a writer I LOVE so much says something like that, it makes my heart want to explode. I'm writing now LOL. Anyway, shhh, keep writing ;)

Hot-cakessssssss :) Nice to have a break from Jo, especially as we know she is trying to destroy Jim and Pam lol.I cnanot wait for more :)

You are making my day, woman :D You know I love your narration, andI also really adore Jim's constant inner-dialog--a very clever way of recounting the earlier events of the evening. Their banter was quick and funny. And the love was there, too. Jim still seems a bit clinical--like he still has his defense mechanisms in place and hasn't fully let go yet--but I still feel the love. Your rendition of Purse Girl and Booze Cruise were fresh, funny and interesting. Jim was such a part of those eps, yet I didn't miss him in your rendition.

Noooooo, why did I have to finish reading this now and not have another chapter waiting for me. I cannot believe Jo, don't break my heart, ok?
Author's Response: Break your heart? No way - I like happy stories way too much. Honestly (and sincerely), my favorite story on this site just might be 'Accidentally in Love' (except for the non-complete part, hint hint!). By the way, it was kind of fun refreshing the review page yesterday (at work!) watching you make progress through the chapters. Thank you!
