''Tis the season! So weird to hear all of their voices so clearly, after all this time. This took me right back there. Thank you!

I found that very amusing. Love that Kevin was the VS expert.
Author's Response: Thanks gotkona! I figured he'd either hang out there because he's a pervert or because he has to buy Stacy a lot of make-up gifts after he does something bone-headed at home!

Aw, this story was so cute. Especially the hilarious Creed-ending. I loved trying to guess who each drabble was about. And hmmmmm... a green-striped shirt? Wonder why you were thinking about that? *evil grin*
Author's Response: So maybe I don't hang out on the "We'd like to climb him like a tree" thread, and maybe I don't wear my hussy club Tshirt out of the house, but I can picture the shirt. And what's under the shirt. Mm-mm good! Thanks GreenFish! ;)

This was so brilliant! I wonder who Pam bought the shirt for... ;)
Author's Response: Green eyes and forearms. Hmmmmm..... Thanks Marcine - glad you liked it!

For New Year's he has a few drinks and shows up at Pam's in the shirt she bought him and she proceeds to make her vision of taking it off of him come true.
Par5: You totally have to Make. This. Happen.
Author's Response: Oh, it's totally going on my list! Believe me, I've been picturing it in my mind...

Oh, I love love love this! Dwigt at Victoria's Secret? With KEVIN? Too good. And "He wondered which way the dice would fall this time", as Jim wraps a perfectly in-character Jim gift? Fantastic.
But the last one, with Creed leaving the mall...pure gold. What a fabulous present! Thank you!
Author's Response: Hee hee! I'm so glad you liked it! I remember you saying before how Dwight's lack of sophistication about women tickled your funny bone! Just couldn't resist the pairing of him with Kevin. Yeah, Creed. Maybe I've seen "Bad Santa" one too many times... Thanks NeverEnoughJam!

absolutly LOVED it.loved it loved it loved it :)
Author's Response: Thank you, thank you, thank you! ;) I love these characters.

How is it possible that fictional characters are done their shopping and I am not? This was really cute (I think everyone beat me to best moments) but my personal favourite was Creed as Santa. I actually went "of course!"
Author's Response: No worries Paper Jam! I was also not even close to being done when I posted these! Still didn't buy everything I needed... I'm glad you like the Creed part! I love him too and all it took was one moment of thought before I had that "AHA!" moment. Thanks!

I love ensemble fics! This one was particularly good. I like how you trust the reader to figure out who is speaking in each of the sections. I especiallylike Dwights starwars ramble. Hee! So him!
Pam's las lin? Awesome. Also loved that you included Creed, however, I would have like to of seen Karen. Keep em' coming though!
Author's Response: Thanks chicgeek! No need to include Karen since she won't be around long. ;) Or maybe she shops online? In any case, thanks for reading and reviewing!

So awesome! Wonderful little insights into the characters through their shopping styles. I think my favorite part was the Dwight and Kevin stuff. Very funny!
Author's Response: Thanks Semby! Just some little bits and pieces I glued together as I stressed about my own Christmas shopping. Glad you enjoyed them!
Date: December 21, 2006 05:36 pm Title: Chapter 1
This is really great! I actually laughed out loud several times. I'm glad you decided to post it before Christmas came and went altogether :)
Dwight's "Question..." for the VS salesgirl will probably be killing me for the next few days. Thanks for that.
Author's Response: My pleasure! I love how clueless Dwight is about women and their, uh, parts. Thanks MrsKamorri!

Dwight at Victoria's Secret -- that kills me! And she looks just like Heidi Klum, yeah! HA!
And who wouldn't love this: But she already had a clear picture of how she wanted to take it off of him. Beautiful!
Author's Response: Thanks lisahoo! Now I so want to write about her taking the shirt off him. Maybe for New Years???
Date: December 21, 2006 01:55 pm Title: Chapter 1
Oh my gosh! Dwight in Victoria' Secret nearly killed me! But then you had to add Kevin to the mix?!? I couldn't contain my laughter! All of these had just the perfect amount of sweetness, sadness, and hilarity! Great job!
Author's Response: Thanks aggiegurl! Yeah, I couldn't resist sending him back with Kevin. I was going to do Michael but that would be like clueless and more clueless. ..

The idea of Creed being a mall Santa is both hilarious and terrifying at the same time.
Author's Response: Right! I guess the Steamtown Mall doesn't believe in background checks! Thanks Diana ;)

I liked this! It was fun and actually my heart hurt a little when Jim got Karen that gift...it was a little more thoughtful than perfume or clothing...but that's the kind of guy he is. Thanks for the great read!
Author's Response: Yes, but he was just giving her the kind of gift Pam would love! He knows she's just a rebound now, so no problem, right?
Thanks for reading!

This was so on-target for each character - especially loved Dwight/Kevin (great conversation in VS re: extra 'parts') and Kelly/Ryan...and Jim's was perfect and poignant...of course he'd get Karen a non-commital gift, pale in comparison to his gift last year to Pam, his tearing up at Edward Scissorhands. Aw. And Santa Creed? In a perverse way, it makes total sense. How do you keep this stuff coming? Must have your secret!
Author's Response:
Don't tell anyone, but I think my secret is - riding on the train every day and typing! It's like getting an infinite number of monkeys to type at an infinite number of typewriters and coming up with Shakespeare. Except I'm only one monkey. And I come up with fanfic.... Maybe it's too many years of writing up dry, dull research? Maybe it's being totally in love with this show?!
Jim's not feeling the same inspiration for Karen's gift and he'll soon realize why not. I loved Dwight in VS and then I thought someone like Kevin would be pretty informed about lingerie so I had to have him join the fun! And I totally picture Creed as "Bad Santa" but not nearly so drunk as Billy Bob Thornton's character. Thanks for being such a thoughtful reviewer as always!

So many nice moments - so many "ah, rats" moments for me. Jim needs to buy something for Pam! You have a very good grasp on all the characters - and I loved some of the tricks you pulled where it wasn't clear who you were writing about until the end! Teaser!
Author's Response:
Well, you know I do so love to tease you... But never fear Moxie! His present for Karen will not be as well received as he would like. For New Year's he has a few drinks and shows up at Pam's in the shirt she bought him and she proceeds to make her vision of taking it off of him come true.
Wait - gotta go! I just outlined my next plot! Thanks!

This was so fun to read. Your characterization of everyone was so good that I could tell without you having to name them. The funniest thing: Kevin as the Yoda or Jabba the Hut of undergarments!
Author's Response: Thanks Morning Angel! Working out my own anxieties about the shopping yet to be done? Perhaps! And I knew Dwight would need some help with VS and who knows more about it than Kevin? Niiiice! *wink*
