Very inventive scenario -- I love how Lucy won't even say the name Karen -- I'm with you, girlfriend!!
And I love how Pam comes to her own defense, ""Excuse me, 'episodes'? Those 'episodes' were my life."
Don't be a stranger, 'Lis!

Loved this! Great new idea, and I loved the bit about Voldie! Hehe!
Author's Response: Thank you very much!

This was just perfect! I loved Lucy's reactions to everything... you totally captured a JAM'ers emotions toward J/K and everything that's going on now. Pam's explanation with the egg was the perfect analogy! I also LOVED how Pam accidentally blurted out "I love you." Really really great job with this! I couldn't stop squeeing after I read it. I even made my boyfriend read it, and he liked it, too!
Author's Response: Thank you! Wow, the boyfriend endorsement- that's huge! :) I thought making their daughter one of "us" would give it a new twist- glad you liked it!

You know I already have a soft spot for those 'we've lived through the fire' future stories, and this one just really hit that spot!
Nevermind me, I'm just sitting here re-reading it. :-) You are so awesome!
Author's Response: Oh, thank you! I hope it bears repeated scrutiny! :)

One of the most charming, sweet, fun things I've read in a while. Such a great idea! I loved the egg analogy, and Lucy's facination with their story...and how in love they still are (and that it kind of grosses Lucy out to see them kiss in real life - perfect.) When Pam says she used to be like an egg, and Jim asks 'scrambled?' - exactly! This definitely took me to the happy place - thanks!
Author's Response: No, thank you! I think we need a little bit of the happy place right about now- it's scary to be a 'shipper these days!

:) Very cool...that's an amazing analogy.
Author's Response: Thank you so much!

That was too awesome for words. I mean...just wow. You truly should think about writing some more. Maybe a spin-off on how Karen handled that news. lol. Perfect. That made me all happy after seeing the Promo for Christmas. You rock.
Author's Response: Thank you! Hmmm, I hadn't considered writing any more about this, but maybe... :)

Oh, dear god - that is just too cute! I mean that in the best way - how Pam explains her life and how she's rather frustrated by the fact that it was her life and then the banter at the end made it so so so perfect.
"Deviled."
Also - I love how you've done the "reveal" of Pam's love for the man - can I poke you to writing that one up for me? I really want to know how Jim (and Karen! RIGHT THERE!) handled it. Fantastic, again.
Author's Response: Oh, thank you! I'm actually (thanks to these responses!) considering fleshing out that scenario. I'm so pleased that you liked it!!

OMG! That was perfect. I loved how their daughter was so fascinated by watching them. And that was a great way to explain JAM with the egg. I LOOOVED how Pam blurted out she loved Jim- I can totally see her doing that. :p
Author's Response: Thanks! I actually played with two or three different scenarios for the big "reveal"- and this is the one that seemed the most in-character. I'm glad you liked it. I'm glad you thought the daughter thing worked - I thought, hey, if we can be so fascinated by them...wouldn't someone whose very existence depended on it be just glued to her TV?

awww, how cute! :)
Author's Response: Thank you! I think they're going to be adorable once they get their acts together.
