"That night...that was my very first kiss from anyone besides my mom, my dad, my grandparents, my aunt Linda, and Roy."

This is my favorite part, I think this is the whole crux of why Pam reacted the way she did to that kiss. Well done.

I loved every syllable of this!  It made me giddy and tear up.  Loved. It.

Honestly, so many people have written in their FDF's the little tidbit about how Jim says he won't put out on the first date, that I think it should be jokingly touched upon in an early S4 episode.  That would be hysterical.

I say this as a completely hetero woman, but I think I may be a little in love with you right now. 

Your stuff never disappoints.  I am always left happy, and usually, giddy.  This one is no different; I love it.

aww! i love this SO much. i really love the comparison to Roy at the beginning, and his desire to settle things and not let it be between them. then when Pam threatens to beat up Karen i almost DIED laughing! so great. i also love how you had them address the fact that their banter is just them. and that it's wonderful. you write it very well! great chapter!!!

Ok this chapter was AMAZING!!!  I loved the up and down emotions and you had my heart in my throat and then I was laughing seconds later....really really great writing 

And while there were a ton of favorite lines to choose from I think this one just topped them all

 "what kind of common hussy do you take me for?"

HAAAAAAAA!!!!  Loved it all thanks for sharing!!

Oh... that was so NICE what you did with that fancy new Beesly / new haircut Jim parallel. I didn't see it coming, and it did warm my heart. Plus, the part about how they slip into schtick to avoid romance--so them. Oh, so many things I liked about this story. Yay for you!

Ya know, the first lines of this reminded me of something that happened on a vacation with the family recently. So, I was really pissed at something my brother did. I can't for the life of me remember. But, I was like, basically, angry at him, and angry at my mom for not doing anything about him. And so, we were at the hotel, and our room had a balcony. So I went out there to fume and think... it was the one place where I could be alone. But then my mom went and ruined it, because she kept going out there to check on me, and saying stupid stuff like, "oh, avoiding the issue, yeah that will help" and it just angered me more, and so I went to bed angrier than I was when I started. Its like, sometimes you just need a moment alone, and yeah, so odd but that was what I thought of when I was reading that experience. You need a moment alone, but the other person involved has to know when not to interrupt, and when its okay. Its like, if my mom had waited like 10 more minutes, I would have gone back in and been the worlds best daughter. but instead, she ruined the night and the next morning. (ooh, place all the blame on her!)
But then again, that was also a different type of argument than the one they have. What is oddly, such a romantic scene in my head is the one where you are like so angry, but then the other person comes over, and its like, you just feel so safe in their arms that you start to cry. I dunno. it sounds odd even as I am typing this. okay, so here is the deal, it is late at night and i woke up early, so if this is just the worlds strangest review... um, blame it on that. and hoepfully you will get enjoyment out of my ramblings.

Oh, and the idea of Pam in a hoodie... totally brings up a girlcrush moment :) (what I like jim/pam in casual clothes)

There hands were mere centimeters apart against the cupboard and she wrapped hers around his.
The only thing I think with this line is I think you meant Their hands...? or is it my slep deprived brain that is reading it weird.

Seriously, loved it. loved loved loved loved. And since I didn't quote anything, just assume I would quote the entire thing. And then imagine me saying amazing deep thoughtful stuff about the entire chapter... because suddenly during this chapter, that whole sleep deprived thing caught up with me, and i am thinking it may be time to turn off the lights and go to sleep.

"Uh...I don't think that's how it works Pam. Most people don't have all this stuff to work out on their first date."

Perfect. So funny, very Jim and so true. And precisely what will make their relationship so rich and interesting to watch - all that history, good and bad. Love when he tells her they're going to have to talk like normal people sometimes (hee.) Love when he tells her normal people would have sex at that point. Love their entire conversation, apparently, LOL! 

As usual, you write their banter to perfection (and trust me, I know that ain't easy - I think you must have a musical ear for it.) And great last line - absolutely sums up not only this story but exactly the point where we left them in the finale. So hopeful and satisfying.

Aww, I love this! Your brand of fluff is the prettiest brand of fluff of all the brands of fluff. But I was promised sex dammit! *points to "moderate sexual content" label...* I kid, I kid. I still love this, and you're still among my all-time favorite fluff writers. Good stuff. So in-character and adorable. =D Great work!

The hardest part of writing JAM is banter and frankly you have it down...completely... And the last line made me grin... :-D
