Duuuude. *stares at you* I feel like I should trap you in a giant net and put you behind a glass window so I can study you forever and ever, because, my God, how do you do it?!?! That was amazing. Seriously. AMAZING.

I tend to not read stories where the only genre listed in the description is "Angst" but I just got too curious about yours.
I'm really glad I read this. This particular chapter had me in tears at work, so I guess on the angst angle, you are hitting a home run. And the saddest part for me is that when Jim says "I don't know if I'm still in love with you," I can completely understand that AND see him saying/feeling just that in canon.
I think it's really interesting that he can't stop thinking that all of the forward progress he's made this year CAN'T have been a waste, when I'm sure that's the same thing Pam was thinking about the 10 years she spent with Roy -- that it couldn't have all been a waste.
I'm in for the long haul on this fic, JAM. Adding to favorites so I don't miss an update. Great job.

Great chapter. I especially loved the talk on the roof and how Pam repeated Jim's words back to him ("Come on...I don't want to do that. I wanna be more than that.") Looking forward to seeing what happens next!

I'm feeling a little strange, so this is going to be short - but I love this, as usual. It's funny how you'd think Pam isn't as strong as Jim, but if she does make the move, she is certainly as strong, if not stronger - Roy and Pam never looked like they were completely in love, while Jim and Karen still manage to look like they're perfectly fine; Jim and Pam were friends and it looked like Pam could love him too, and now Jim and Pam seem to barely say a few words to each other, and he's cold, stand-offish, a little mean. It's not the same, and if Pam makes a move, it's saying a lot more about her bravery than it did about Jim's last year.
I like that something about this story manages to back that idea up perfectly.
And I loved the confrontation on the roof - how she wasn't afraid to cry, and he wasn't afraid to tell her...and how she said she's not going anywhere.
Gives me some hope after all. ;)
Can't wait, at all, for an update - I loved the first two chapters, and I adored this one, and I know for a fact that therefore I'm going to want to worship subsequent chapters. ;)

this is gloriously angsty wonderfulness and if you don't update this story more quickly I just might scream. I mean this chapter was awesome from the vomiting to the hospital confrontation to the roof, exactly how I would envision it. I don't think Jim deserves her in this, which is my favorite kind because he really needs to be BROKEN before he gets her back and I love jealous!jim, give her someone else and I guarantee he'll be 'in love' with her again quicker than you can snap your fingers. And karen, what an idiot.

Jim? Just so you know, I'm still going to be here. For as long as...well, I'm going to be here.
Really enjoyed this story until just there, I find that very unrealistic and honestly a bit unfortunate as I thought this story was moving along really interestingly.
