"I already told you: I need a clue."
"You're telling me," she giggled.
That's them in a nutshell.
I wonder sometimes how they can both be so intentionally dense. And I'm glad that things seem to be looking up for them! It looks like Pam took Squirrel's advice to heart....
I still totally think that she knows.
And thanks for not making Karen a vindictive bitch. Sure, it's fun to see her angry, but really, I think she's awesome.
Thanks for the update!! I'd been waiting for it for days!!
cheers.

This made my day, although it was shorter than most and didn't have Vexin and all of our IRC buddies in it.
I laughed at Jim because I knew exactly why she liked the color 'Asparagus.' Does that mean I'm a dork? xD
Well done, this chapter.

So lovely! I felt this rush of goodness the whole chapter- Karen leaving, leaving on better terms than Jim would have thought, Pam happier, ASPARAGUS! Fanastic!

Ha! I guessed the color of his eyes not long after I'd read that. Well, if that isn't a big clue she's giving Jim, then I don't know what is. And how cute she was drawing squirrels! Is Pam on to him though? I can't tell yet. Thank you so much for an update!

And you're going to leave us with that? Cruel, cruel Moxie! You're slowly bringing back the vibe between them, which is very fun to read. I guess Squirrel's remarks "last" night hit home for Pam. Good thing Jim noticed she was making an efforrt!

Nyaaaw~. How adorable, Pam. xD.
I'm really glad you updated :DD.

So green has ceased to be a whoreish color? :D Oh, wicked Pam, to tease Jim this way. (Good for her!) Oh, wicked Moxie, to leave us hanging! Wah!
As always, many thanks for this story. And I love the idea of Dunder-Mifflin squirrel mascots...

You GO, Pam! Hehe. In addition, I knew Squirrel Gray had to figure in there somewhere....
Date: April 05, 2007 02:36 pm Title: Before the taking of a toast and tea
YAY! They're talking again in the office!!! Loved everything about the chapter!
Can't wait for more (especially to see how mad Pam is when Jim confirms his internet identity)
More soon!

Yay! Jim/Pam banter! I swear I was holding my breath throughout this entire chapter....whewwwwww
sooo good!! I can't wait to see Jim's reaction to her favorite color!

Gahhhhh. Way to grow a spine, Pam. :D I have to say, this is perhaps my favorite story on this entire site on the moment. Great job, and please keep updating regularly! :)

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
That's all... just EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Ths made my heart jump: He knew he wasn't going to last a day once Karen left Scranton. Yes, I am that pathetic. And yay! to Jim being silly with Pam again
Even though I knew it was coming, I was still giddy with girly glee imagining Pam looking into Jim's gorgeous hazel eyes and calling him 'dense'. He really needs to kiss the hell out of that girl. Karen isn't standing in his way any longer, and we know he doesn't have the willpower to wait for Pam to make her move. Heck, the crayon thing counts as a move in my book.
And I swear you are lacing this fic with crack, because I am about ready to sell my children for the next hit.

Moxie,
You do an incredible job of keeping true to Jim and Pam's voices. I've really enjoyed Squirrel, especially the pacing. That also mimics the character of the show, and I mean that in the best possible way.
I'm not a regular fan fic reader, but this hiatus really had me jonesing for an Office fix. Thanks so much for keeping me entertained.

Oh, that last line gave me goosebumps. I mean, obviously the entire thing was brilliant, but that really got me. I cannot wait to see how he responds to that proclamation!
Date: April 05, 2007 02:02 pm Title: Before the taking of a toast and tea
OMG I LOVEEEE THIS!!!

I went directly to the Crayola website to see that shade! I'm so excited that they are starting to move towards each other, but now I'm dying to know how this will affect her relationship with Squirrel.

CUTE!!!! the worst thing about this fic is that it is SO good!!! im so impatient to see more and more of it. this one chapter at a time thing is very difficult to deal with!
;-) But seriously, this is such good stuff. way to go!

The end of this chapter could not have been any more perfect! Though the rest of the chapter rocked pretty hard as well!

okay, a short comment:
i friggin LOVE this!

ok you've officially made up for being a tease in this last chapter. Kiss her damnit (not you Moxie, although that would make for an interesting story). Kiss her now! A woman just doesn't casually admit that her favorite color in the whole WORLD is the color of your eyes, she says it because she means it.

Scratch, scratch, scratch. Itch, itch, itch! I'm itchin' to find out the end to the story! I'm dying here! Anyone have some calomine lotion?
