Wow!! That was great! I loved how Pam was waiting for Jim after he broke up with Karen.
Author's Response: Thank you so much! I'm surprised you came back to read this old story, but I really enjoyed writing it. Thanks again!

Oh man. Pam was in the car during the final confrontation. Ouch. But "I already told her I couldn't go" is the line that launched a thousand squees!
Nice work on this one. You done yourself proud.
Author's Response: Thank you! I am proud, mostly because it is by far the longest piece I've done. I'm glad you liked the ending. Squee, indeed!

wow. sooo beautifully written. it was heartbreaking, and sweet, and normally i love the fluff, but i'm glad it's not oozing everywhere here because it works so well. just plain beautiful!
Author's Response: Thank you so much! I'm a fan of fluff, too, but this relationship (and this show) doesn't always stick to that. I'm glad you liked it!

The woman he loved. Yup...if only it were that simple.
I was so relieved when Pam finally spilled to him at the end...she said exactly what she should say (hear that you ogre, Greg Daniels?) And what a perfect character detail that Karen would use battle terminology - neutral territory - for their relationship...I don't think the Call to Duty metaphor when we met her was any accident! Really well done!!!
Author's Response: Thank you, ma'am. Yeah, I let them off easy. It's hard writing so much for one story! :) Karen's character is still a cypher to me, but I thought that felt right. She's not exactly the opposite of Pam- they're both very tenacious. Karen fights, though, while Pam just holds on. I'm with you, I'm ready to hear Pam just SAY IT!

I swear, this just made me want to stand up and applaud! First of all, their conversation was so spot on - again, spare dialogue, but such a heavy subtext. Second, when she took his hand, I held my breath and didn't let it out until she finally just told him what she was feeling.
And this? "a half smile that promised healing and felt like home" - Just gorgeous.
You rock!
Author's Response: I'm glad you are breathing again. The ending was a little quick, I thought, but I needed to wrap this up so I could move on to other things. It was looming over me. YOU rock- best comments ever. Thank you, thank you!
