Man, oh, man there are so many good things I want to grab onto with this. This ABSOLUTELY filled in the hole for me from this episode. I mean, it could completely be canon.
I love that Pam is in that middle area of Roy still being familiar and comfortable for her (the comfort of him being the only one to see her come; the predictability of what he likes) but also how she is smarter, growing (smart girl with the condom, recognizing that he knew how to please her, he just didn't always care). This really is wonderfully done. And I really love how you painted Roy as an actual multi-dimensional person with flaws and assets. Thank you for this!

i love this so much. for some reason, the image of roy crying in pam's arms when his grandmother died really hit me. pam and roy did once have a good relationship.

Really, really good. Very Pam/Roy I think, as they were in their relationship at this point in the show.
He was still the only man on the planet who had seen her naked.
I'm about 99.999% sure that this is canon up to the point this fic takes place; and a huge reason why she took awhile to consciously clue into how she felt about Jim.
I have a sneaking suspicion this is pretty much what happened when she left after the wedding....

He was the only other person on the planet who had ever seen her come.
I like the way this sentence, all by itself, explains so much about Pam.

Oh, this was sad. I love how well you represent Pam's conflicting emotions. This is really difficult and confusing stuff for her.

"The words were right, but the mouth was wrong." - indeed!
I actually enjoyed this. Despite how upset I was when Pam left with Roy, I could read all kinds of regret from Pam in your fic. Althought perhaps it's just wishful thinking on my part. Anyway, this made me feel better.

FTW! the BEST post-wedding story Ive read so far. I just love sweet Roy and Jim is being such an ass and Pam deserved some good lovin...even if it's wrong. I loved this, you rock.

Kudos!

You did such a nice job on this story; I could definitely see where Pam was at here, and I'm glad for it, because it was so easy to be angry at her for leaving with him last week! Thanks for writing this.
Author's Response: Thank you :)

this almost made me cry! I just feel so bad for all those characters--everyone wanting someone else. :) so good!

I'm sorry I almost made you cry!
Thank you for the review :)

Thanks for writing this. So sad, but I think that's what happened. Poor Pam and Roy. Hopefully, it'll just be a one nighter, and Pam will learn that she can't go backward anymore.
Author's Response:
I hope it was just a one time thing too.
Thank you for the review :)

I think that was just spot on. Pam needed that predictability, yet she is not really satisfied by it either. I don't doubt that Roy is indeed trying, but unfortunately, it is not probably not going to make Pam happier. Really good story.

Okay, regaining composure. Thank you :)

Was so glad to see something new by you! As others havesaid, you have a wonderful, nuanced insight into Pam. I like how you used the sexual release as the conduit to sort of unlocking her complicated feelings about Roy and her ambivalence about leaving the saftey of that behind, especially given what's going on with Jim. Especially loved her reactions upon entering their (her) former home - great metaphor for being with Roy being at once familiar and just not her anymore. Really well done.
Author's Response: Thank you, Colette!

Great story, Willow!! Well-written as always and I felt you captured the reality of what these two characters would have done in that situation. As painful as it may be for JAM fans, it's the reality I believe the show would have followed too. And you have a great ability to get inside Pam's head and what she's thinking. Great job!!
Author's Response: Thank you :)

Oh Willow. I stopped my own "Pam and Roy" scene where I did - because this is exactly what I expected it would be like. I'm so glad you wrote it. It makes it easier for my poor overactive imagination to take.
Excellent insight into Pam's thoughts. If this is how things ended up (pretty sure it is) I love knowing she was still thinking of "someone else" ;) in the end.
Awesome job.

ah, it's so hard to read this. I just want to shout a big NOOOOOOOO!!!! But you did it well. Don't suppose you are going to write the first Pam/Jim meeting after this horrible mistake?? Please??
Author's Response: Thank you Moxie! I don't know if I will continue this. I just had to get Pam's thoughts out of my head.
