Love this! I like the prank especially!

This was such a delight to read! The entire bar scene with Jim coming to Pam's rescue, and her writing on his back (side note, Roy is the worst) was so lovely - and then the misunderstanding/near miss, which is just so very them. But I'm so glad they *actually* spoke to each other and cleared it up! I really liked the nod to that at the end. The Michael/Dwight prank is also absolutely genius, and the way you've written their reactions is hilarious. This was such a brilliant (and nicely wrapped up) AU!

Okay, hi. Drawing letters on his back?! EXCUSE YOU. And then the perfect prank and the perfect banter and the miscommunication that they actually figure out the first dang time. Ugh, I seriously loved this so much. SO cute!

OOF Aly!
I loved every second of this! Cannot WAIT for more!

Always love to visit other ways Pam and Jim first connected and this one was a lot of fun. Gets right to how they seem to communicate on a similar level right from the start. Lots of funny Jim lines and the bonding over a prank which was quite a thing to envision.
Of course there would be angst over miscommunication but with the resolution all was good in the world of Pam and Jim. The little nod to the alternate universe of this story that is the real universe of what we know was like a perfect little wink too.
Nice job.

This was so sweet! I mean… I’m a sucker for angst and drama but MAN this is how it should have happened for them.
Love Pam drawing the letters on his back, that gave me chills.
Very sweet story! 💗

This was lovely! I'm glad they actually communicated early on for once!

Tons of fun with this next chapter. Jim and Pam getting into a groove with each other. The subtle angst with both of them thinking the other one is taken was done perfectly. However what's better was they were finally honest with each other about the assumptions they made. Their timing may have been a bit off, but not nearly as much as in canon and I LOVE that. The nod to canon about that was great too.
To end it with the cuddled up together in bed was just lovely. Great job with this one. It was a ton of fun that's for sure.

Very fun concept here. Especially with Jim at DM first. You can really feel that DM is starting to weigh him down, thus the trips to Poor Richards.
Love that there seems to be an instant connection with Pam. And of course Jim to the rescue is always great. The fact that Pam gets on board with what he's doing and jumps right in with spelling on his back was so wonderfully delightful. I was about to say something about Jim should realize Pam telling Roy she had a boyfriend was just a ruse, but I kinda doubt Jim's ever had that line used on him. So there you go.
Not quite getting the timing right here in the first chapter that's for sure. As I've already read the next chapter I'll save those comments for the review of that one.
Great way to get us into this story here though.

Ah! The new job was at Dunder Mifflin! Oh, Aly, you clever devil. ADORBS. Of course the universe has bigger plans for Jim and Pam. And it's lovely to see their issues easily resolved with clear communication. The easy happily ever after they deserved, dammit.
The prank is diabolical, too. Michael would absolutely buy that, and it would make sense, because Dwight is absolutely the guy who would put post-its on someone's car and then sign them.
Bet you Greg Daniels would have found a way to stretch this story out for four seasons, too. Nice work. This was fun.

This is cute!
I like the look into what Jim's life would be like if he hadn't fallen for Pam. Seems very in character that it's also fairly stagnant and unexciting. She really is the best part of what he has going for him.
You did well finding their instant connection here - how they're able to find ways to communicate as total strangers. If not quite well enough to avoid missing each other in the dark.
*Sigh* They were so close. Could've all been so easy. WAIT THERE'S ANOTHER CHAPTER.

Lovely story! I know this is intended to be a short sorry, but I would have loved reading how their dates went in between those two weeks.
Great job

Ugh this was so so cute. First of all I am DYING at Jim and Pam's prank on Dwight. That was brilliant. "It very clearly says it's from you" hahaha. And I love how Jim figures out that Pam waited for him to show up for work. Ugh. That captured the feel of the show so perfectly. This was such a great story, aly!

Oh aly. This was so delightfully sweet and funny and adorable. "Birthday?" "Hers or mine?" LMAO! I loved the whole thing of Pam tracing answers on his back. I feel like that would have been such a great thing in the show to make them touch without being *too* close. I'm sad they have to be apart now though. I wonder where Pam's job is? ;)

Awww, that's so, so lovely! Thank you so much for figuring it out and writing it down :)
