This chapter was lovely & I was so very sad to see it end! I am very much anticipating the reconciliation (that I hope) comes next! Rain-soaked Pam complete with having to wear Jim’s clothes is a delightful trope that I am very much here for.
Author's Response: I'm weak for rainy day declarations, not gonna lie. Probably my favorite trope. I'm glad you're enjoying it. Thank you so much for reading it!

This is lovely. I like how you have them ping-ponging in and out of the room, not having a lot of chances to actually talk because they're both so cute and nervous.
Author's Response: Yes!! He's so surprised and she's so anxious and I need them to compose themselves before they shared the same space for longer than a few paragraphs haha

So not going with the whole doorstep confessional trope then? Nice call. I do find it kind of funny that even though they've been apart for a month now the first thing that happens is they spend the first moments apart. In this case Pam to get changed and then for Jim to put her clothes in the wash.
Overall though, I do like this. That Pam is almost as surprised she's there as Jim is. Now that she is with him again, it seems a lot of her old fears are still there. While she and Jim may be great at being buddies, they weren't great at really telling the other how they felt about the other. That even though she's here that's still the case. Great writing to bring that out. Can't wait to see what happens next.
Author's Response: Oh, this fic will be trope-y for sure, and while I'm a sucker for doorstep confessions, I wanted to build this one up a bit. And yes! The whole being honest with how you feel thing is VERY new for both of them, and I definitely wanted to bring some of that out with these first few chapters. Thank you so much for providing your insight into it because it definitely lets me know that people are seeing how they're struggling with being so vulnerable.

Awesome start!!! Can’t wait to read what happens when Jim opens the door. And maybe we get to read what’s going on in Pam’s head and what led her there
Author's Response: mmhmmm...I like to get into both of their heads a little bit, so hopefully you won't be disappointed. Thank you so much for reading it!!

There can never be too many “Pam drives to Stamford” stories! I’m so excited to see what you have in store!
Author's Response: I feel the same way!! Thanks for reading it, agian!

Yes another Post Casino Night Pam comes to her senses story, but for the most part those are fun. I liked how you got into Jim's mind here. His thoughts about Stamford and his new co-workers are good too. Great way to get into his mind.
So, Pam's here. I'm very curious to see how you take this one. Looking forward to the next update.
Author's Response: I can't help it. I'm way too obsessed with Casino Night and all of the infinite possibilities of a post-Casino Night world. Thanks for reading and the review, warrior!

Ugh, I’m a sucker for Jim and Pam remakes during season 3.
That bit you wrote about with Jim only just existing was really interesting. It gives such a good insight into how Jim feels after rejection.
I’m so excited to see this!
Author's Response: Thank you so much for reading it! Hopefully, I won't disappoint :)

There are never too many post Casino Night stories - especially ones where Pam gains some earlier courage. I’m glad you’ve decided to add this one to the mix! You’ve set this up really nicely, poor Stamford Jim is understandably not having a great time. Looking forward to seeing where you go next!
Author's Response: Thank you so much for the encouragement and kind words! I hope you like it!!

Always worth taking a stab at a familiar topic! Your story will be yours and thus unique and valuable. And you've done a nice job starting it off. Looking forward to where you go with it.
Author's Response: Awww thanks Comfect! I hope you like it!!
