Awkwardness for JAM. ON to next chapter

Okay, I'm finally getting around to reading this one, and there is some really great stuff in here. The "two daddies" conversation made me laugh out loud. The feel of the show is very present in this.

Okay, it has taken me nearly 24 hours to review for this chapter. And I only mention that because I usually review on whatever impulse I get immediately after reading. With this one, however, I had to do a lot of processing. I have spent about a month all twitterpated, a little in love, and a little obsessed with all things JAM. I rarely think of anything else. However, this fic was like cold water thrown in my face. Now, I definitely don't mean that in a bad way - at all. In fact, I really am loving this fic. So let me explain... I am 99.9 percent sure that this is about what will happen on the show in the fall. I have kind of known that for a long time, too. But I don't know if it's the realism in certain passages of the story, or if it's because The Office released casting info so I can now put a face to the JAM threat - whatever the reason, this story got to me big time. I've been reading all of this lovely Jim and Pam angst and fluff, etc. etc. and I always find myself relating to and feeling more for Jim than Pam. However, this fic made my heart break for Pam. I can feel for her so clearly and it was so real and so much - that it freaked me out. I mean, I can imagine how it would feel to find your one constant in life, being someone else's constant right in front of your face. Completely shattering. I was honestly depressed for a little while after reading this (which I think should be taken as a compliment towards your great writing) which is why I couldn't review for a full day. I wasn't sure if I wanted to read anymore Office fanfic for awhile. But, the point of this, the longest review I've ever written (rambled), is BRAVO!!!!
Author's Response: Wow, thank you SO much. I am seriously flattered.

I think you are a phenomenal writer. I look forward to your stories, and am never disappointed. I believe that you are secretly a writer of the show sent to appease crazy fanatics like us during the hiatus. I thank you for that. :) Please continue to make me feel for these characters and get into their world for even the briefest of moments.
Author's Response: Who is this? Haha, kidding. Thank you.

Fic where Jim comes back to Scranton from the Stamford branch is like crack to me. Season 3, already! I'm enjoying this a lot. Lots of little touches that make it great. I like the Michael characterization - it's fun to have fic where the Jam is the, er, filling if you will, har har, to the whole office environment and all of the supporting cast.
Author's Response: Haha, good one! Thanks for the feedback.

aww...poor pam. i can just see the writers pulling a scenario just like this on us.
Author's Response: Yeah, I'd be a little sad to actually see this played out.

WOW - that is so believable; you nailed every single character perfectly (TWSS)! Really love the subtlety here as well - as everyone else said, I can really envision that being an episode next season.... Loved it!
Author's Response: Hehe...TWSS. Great. Thank you!

Ooh...I'm not too sure I like this new Melissa chick...continue!
Author's Response: Who WOULD like the girl that comes between JAM? Thanks for the feedback.

The image of Pam looking up and seeing Jim at the doorway of the breakroom with his bag slung over his shoulder...omg. I think I melted. Poor Pam.
Author's Response: You too? I was a pool of liquid on the ground as I was writing it.

I literally felt nauseous from the point that Melissa showed up until the end. My heart is breaking for Pam. I kind of want to cry.
You know what this means don't you? It means that you're awesome. You have their characters down. Perfectly. More, please.
Author's Response: Thank you. Hopefully you'll feel a little better later on.

This is an awesome story, but if my reaction to Melissa (see hatred, seething) is any indication of how I'm going to handle Season 3? It's not going to be pretty. You have all the characters voices perfect!
Author's Response: Heh, imagine how I feel writing her. Every keystroke breaks my heart!

Please tell me this will get better? At least you are preparing us for what looks like season 3.
Author's Response: Happy endings are my specialty...maybe.

I'm having visions of what season 3 might bring us... That is a very good story, even if poor Pam is being tortured!
Author's Response: It's her turn, right?

"She’s sick of solitaire." That says it all, eh? And I love that the first thing she hears Jim say is "Ah." Kind of inadvertently sexy. Melissa made my stomach flop, too. Poor Pam. Season 3 might be hard :( On a brighter note, I love that Creed thinks the stapler is a game and I wonder if he thinks Ryan started it?
Author's Response: Thanks. I think Jim is very good at being inadvertently sexy : )

No Melissa taking Jim's hand. NO, NO, NO!!! Sorry, I was channeling my toddler. I am loving this story! You have got the characters down so well. Looking forward to the next chapter.
Author's Response: Don't worry, Melissa makes me want to throw a tantrum too. Thank you.
