Pam saw Jim’s parents! And Roy’s arrested!? Why am I not that surprised?

What!? Roy (I assumed Roy) and Karen!? What a plot twist! What gonna happen next! I hope Pam and Jim see each other again! Of course break up with Roy and Karen. ASAP.

This was the sweetest, rom-commiest of fics, I absolutely loved it. Love at first sights and all the ways fate found them their way, it was bliss. I love that you had them both with Roy and Karen but fixed those errors in their judgement pretty sharpish. The ending was everything we were rooting for, thank you!

This was a super cute and sweet story. Jim is such a lovable dork, going back to Scranton with the only plan of cruising around town, hoping he will run into Pam somewhere. Also, I love the Kelly cameo, as well as Jim's mom. Of course someone like Jim would have an awesome Mom.

Thank you for writing and sharing it with us!

“I hope it doesn’t disappoint” she said as if this story with its canon callbacks and both of them losing their minds over each other and all the ways fate intervened to get them back together and kissing in the street and ending up back on a flight probably maybe about to try to join the mile high club wasnt just perfection

I've been delayed with reviews lately but I couldn't let this one slip off without a note to say how much I enjoyed this fic. The last two chapters were heartwarming and I love when it all comes full circle. I was tickled by the Jim's Froggy gaffe - Pretty in Pink - grew up with this movie and Jon Cryer is forever Ducky Dale for me despite anything else he has done since.
Love the hint at their being risque and Kelly's return.
Oh and from last chapter - Your Betsy is my kind of Betsy. The facebook messages had me smiling as did the comment about the sugars in the coffee shop where they reunite.
Such a charming meet cute story- loved it.

This was so lovely from start to finish. I love the idea of them meeting as strangers in the airport, and you've taken a cute rom com trope and made it so perfect and Jam-y. I really like the way you've written their meeting making them realise what each of their own relationships were lacking (it's nice for it to happen in parallel rather than the show's bad timing with Roy and Karen). And then Jim finding Pam in the coffee shop!! Kelly remembering them at the end is just the icing on the cake. This was so good!

Pam wanting to create their first flight is fun, but also... KELLY REMEMBERS THEM. EEEEEEP.

Now, get back to writing your Christmas fic. Your kids can take care of themselves for a few hours.

I love the little exchange with Betsy about his Poor Richard's trip. This is who Betsy is, the mom who acts suspicious about your bar trips and then bakes you cookies for your ride home. Also makes for a good contrast with Roy's introduction.

""So I heard you moved out. How do I know this? Because I'm a creep who came to Scranton to hopefully find you and ended up next to your ex in a bar and overheard some things and anyway my parents have a spare bed if you need somewhere to stay. Also I might be in love with you?" Don't delete, Jim. Send that one. That exact text. Frame that and put it above your bed so you can show your grandchildren. THe fact that he starts his actual message with "I'm not a stalker" is amazing.

Never mind, the actual text is beautiful.

And he stopped for coffee at Isabel's coffee shop! Total small town love story.

Awwww. This is too cute.

A very cute a flirty way to wrap things up. I've got a feeling that if they did want to go ahead with Jim's suggestion, Kelly wouldn't stand in their way. Wonderful to see how they are around each other though.

Thanks for sharing this one. It was a ton of fun.

Oh so sweet!! And I love that Kelly is the Eugene Levy of this story!! I still haven’t watched Serendipity again, but when I do find it on a streaming service, I will totally think of you and this sweet Jam AU. Thanks for this darling, happy, funny, story!!

Ok so this chapter left me a great big grinning gooey mess and I thank you so much for it. With how things ended last chapter I was nervous there would be a bit of a backslide on Pam's part, but no. She found her courage after all and yeah, maybe bit scary but good for her.

Jim just meandering around Scranton does seems somewhat silly, but at the same time, he's right. He's not going even have a chance to run into her just sitting around his parents place. Good for him to get the courage to get out there and look.

We get the sense of purposelessness he's facing as he heads to the bar. A whole big pile of "now what do I do?" But seems like fate is kind. So his nerves shoot through the roof what with not only sending that message but waiting for any reply. Him checking his messages time after time rings so true for a guy who is so on edge.

Their reunion in the coffee shop is just the sweetest thing ever. Then the walk they take and their first kiss. Beautiful. Simply beautiful. In one sense it's kind of a relief that it's short and sweet. They're both getting out of long term relationships so having the next week to process all that feels good. That being said their connection is still as strong as ever and I love seeing it.

Looking forward to seeing how this on comes in for a landing for sure.

Oh god, this was such a good update!!!! So fluffy and wonderful, but then you go and kill js with ONLY ONE MORE CHAPTER?!? You know we absolutely need to know how these two spent their first Christmas together - a Christmas one shot would be so fitting as it’s December and you wouldn’t want to disappoint your fans…
But great work, loved Jim trying to be out of the house so much, and his attempts at the Fb message AND THE KISS!!!!
👏👏👏👏

So sweet and that kiss! Perfection. I was really happy to see an update and it didn't disappoint.

Looking forward to the next chapter, not looking forward to the story ending.

Oh. My. God. This was so good! All the FEELS of Serendipity!!! All the FEELS of Jam!!! I mean, this was their ice rink scene in the coffee shop... with Isabel in Molly Shannon's role!!! The score of Serendipity is one of my faves... just the soft, sweet, meandering, hopeful music, and your tone here completely matched that. I'm so glad that they finally met up. There is so much in life that is just not a coincidence... be it finding the love of your life or knowing why you had the assignment you did (I'm an RN) or simply running into someone where you never planned on stopping--and I love that you and Serendipity celebrated this. Fantastic, sweet, hopeful, funny, heartwarming. Off to watch Serendipity... and then maybe some Jam!

In the words of Michael Scott, my heart is very full at this moment. The emotion they both felt once they saw each other again, I could cry right along with them. And then Jim saying he found home after kissing Pam at the end after he wasnt sure where home was earlier ughhhhhhhhhh. And her bringing grape soda and fabric softener. Pure perfection.

I know I'm late with this review, I hope you can forgive me. HOWEVER, THIS WAS EVERYTHING. I love Jim and Betsy's banter, the part with the Fruity Pebbles and Grape Soda was great. Also, she's right. Mom's know everything (which I know you are well aware of already). Pam running into Jim's parents? Brilliant. THAT ENDING THOUGH! Fitting for Roy.
KEEP. THESE. COMING!

Author's Response:

As DJC in his review, if you can't have fruity pebbles every morning as an adult, what's the point? Haha 

I'm glad you liked it! Hopefully I can write more soon!

AMAZING. Glad to see this one is back!

Hand to blog: I was sitting there reading the first Jim section being like "you're playing a dangerous game, Jim. One bad click and you're outed." And THEN IT HAPPENED. Great minds.

"It was him. He had found her. He wanted to find her." EEEP.

Some interesting parallelism to canon here... as always, the arrival of Jim isn't just about a transfer of affection but about making Pam realize she's unsatisfied with how things are.

""You're a grown man, son. Despite the fact that you just put Fruity Pebbles and grape soda in my shopping cart." If being a grown-up means eating Fruity Pebbles for breakfast whenever you want, what's even the point?

Okay. I love Betsy.

"He wasn’t always the perfect boyfriend, but he tried. For every time he messed up, he made sure to sincerely make up for it afterward. But gradually, after being together for a few years, he began to ask for forgiveness less often and rather just expect it instead." This sounds spot on.

Okay, THAT'S a twist ending, and now you owe us an update ASAP as possible.

P.S. Michael's pet insurance company is genius.

Author's Response:

I would like for your to write a rejected cold open involving Michael wanting to start a pet insurance company. Kthanks. 

And thanks for reviewing, as always!! I'll try to get the next part soon, with the promise of some more Betsy Halpert.
