"She isn't sure which one of them is more of a whore. She changes her mind twice a week." Ha! Funny line. And for what it's worth, I think one-night stand beats living with your fiance. ;) Then again, they may both have both counts against them so... ?
I love Turtle bowls filled with Dove chocolates. Perfect. (Also yummy.)
Author's Response: Heh, thanks! Definitely yummy- I'm a chocolate lover, myself. I think the ongoing tension/friendship between Oscar and Angela is one of the funniest aspects of the show- it was fun to let him comment on her. Thanks again!

Turtle bowls! HA! And here I was thinking it was just another malpropism. Nice. And I love how Jim used his powers for good for a change. That was simply beautiful. I'm loving how real this all feels. I truly could see them filming any or all of this action!
I haven't decided yet if you're going to end up having Kelly find Pam's present in Jim's coat and think it's hers. Or if you're going to have Darryl working for Jim to find out if Pam would like the earrings he told her were for Kelly. Either way (or a third one I'm too dense to guess), I predict hilarity!
Author's Response: Jim does have Dwight-powers, doesn't he? I still think some of the unseen season 4 might have been Jim and Pam trying to get Angela and Dwight back together, so this was sort of my nod toward that. Hmmm, no comment on your speculation for the final chapter, although I do appreciate that you think hilarity will ensure. Thanks, babe!

It is so Kelly that she would still be pleading to know what her gift is - and so Creed that he would be making turtle bowls in ceramics class! And so "Patricia" to think of mini Dove Bars.. So cute and so imaginative!
Author's Response: Thank you! I love trying to work in the character details, but I find that it's harder to write stuff that is both funny and in-character. I'm glad you are enjoying this!

All right! Good job getting Dwight to head out to Angela's place. Can't wait to see where that goes. And Pam wearing Jim's jacket and refusing to give it back is just so typical S4 Pam, it just makes me smile.
Author's Response: I've really enjoyed S4 Pam. She's so fun! I'm glad you think I've captured some of her spirit. I'm really not the prank mastermind that Jim is- it took me forever to come up with something. I'm glad you liked it! One more chapter to go...!

Great stuff, I didn't want this chapter to end. Lots of fun with some neat suspense. Just what is that gift, and does Pam know already? Hmmm.
Author's Response: You have no idea how much I appreciate that comment- I was afraid this one went on too long, but I didn't know what to cut in order to address all of my different plot lines enough to set up chapter 4. Thank you- I'm so happy you're enjoying this!

Aw, another great chapter! Good on Pam for keeping Angela's secret. Still can't wait to see what's in Jim's coat pocket ;)
Author's Response: Thank you! I like to think Pam would keep her word, although to be honest I've told my husband stuff I said I wouldn't. So who knows? And about Jim's coat pocket...there's only one chapter left. All will be revealed!

Best early Christmas Present ever! I was just about to go to sleep... but this is very much worth it!
Okay, Pam checking out his butt makes me laugh but she so does! (I would too!!!!)
Oh, and the idea of Pam in Jim's coat is just so sweet and cute and... yeah, pretty much great. In a weird way it reminds me of ... I have this picture of one of my girlies in a coat I have. I was... maybe like 18 at the time. And she was 3. So obviously my coat was ginorous on her. But it was so cute when she put it on. Pam in Jim's coat is equally as cute.... but in a very differnt way!
Hmm, who is the bigger whore. I would say... Phyllis. I mean, she did have that one night stand a while ago....
Jim is brilliant!
And so is Phyllis :D
Yep, tis was great to stay up for!
Author's Response: Oh, I hate to think I've deprived you of sleep- but if this is the response I get, I can't be too sorry! I liked running around in my husband's clothes, too- he's so much bigger than me, it feels like I'm playing dress-up. You have no idea how hard it was to come up with Jim's "scenario" for Dwight. He's clearly smarter than me if he comes up with this stuff all the time! Glad you liked- now get some rest!

Ha! Very, very cute chapter. I love embarrassed!Jim, judgmental!Angela, and of course...uh... Creed!Creed. (He just is who he is, y'know? :P)
I really like the dialogue you've got going on in this story. It's so realistic sounding. Makes the characters come alive, as though we're watching the long-lost-probably-never-gonna-see-it S4 Christmas episode... :)... :/ .... :( .... :'[
No, I'll be okay... it's just.. .dusty in here. :P
Author's Response:
Aw, I know. Stupid strike sucks. On the plus side, it gives us all the room in the world to write fic that isn't AU yet. Right? (It's more of a gray lining than a silver one, I know). Anyway, thank you- I just love writing for these people. I'm glad the dialog is working for you- I'm envisioning this like an episode, so it is a lot of talking rather than description. I'm so glad you're enjoying it! And Creed...he's just so fun. One more chapter to go!
