This feels like a really good look at Pam's head pre-Cocktails in particular.

Wow...I do so love this story. Your Pam voice here in particular is just stellar. I'm so glad we're nearly to the point of them being together! You'll continue on then, right? :-)
Author's Response: Thanks LoveFool! I was really trying to understand Pam's head during this whole ghastly period so I'm glad you think I did it justice. Of course I'm continuing... there will be seven altogether. Thanks for reading! I appreciate that you always take time to review. :)

The tension in this chapter is awful- worse, maybe, then even the episodes it spans because there aren't any Michael or Dwight antics to lighten it up. That's a compliment, by the way, because those days were awful and tense for them. I love that Jim is honest at least to himself here. I just continue loving this.
Author's Response: Thanks lis. I think it's funny how we lie to ourselves even when we know better, and all the time we know we know better, if that makes any sense. Anyway, I'll be glad to leave the angst behind and write some fun quippy dialogue. I hope I did justice to the characters' motives and fears here. Thanks for reading and taking the time to review. It really helps keep me going :)

You're still squeezing my heart, callisto. This, in particular, hurt so good: He and Karen are leaving early to go spend the night in New York. I can’t think about that. It actually hurts. Physical pain.
Actually enjoyed the angst, but I'm waiting patiently for the happy.
Author's Response: Glad you're still with me NR. I love that you always pull out specific lines; it's nice to know what resonates. And yeah, it's nice to know there's happy on the way, eh? Thanks for the review ;)

and the whole time I kept calling her Beesly because it just felt so good to use that name and know it was still true.
It's lines like this that set you apart. So simple, yet so full of meaning. This just really tugged at my heartstrings. The whole story does. So poignant, yet so full of hope. Can't wait for the next chapter!
Author's Response: Thanks Annika! I do strive to say a lot with a little, so I consider that high praise. 'set you apart' is a really nice thing to say :) Glad you're enjoying this. I hope to update again this weekend.

Oh, Jim. Oh, Pam. So deluded. I had a feeling this part was going to be a wee bit frustrating (in terms of the characters, not the writing) when I read the title of this chapter. But it ends at a very promising place. I can't wait until they start talking either!
Author's Response: I hope I did justice to their motivations, and I hope it came across as realistic and true to how they were behaving. Ah, but happier times are on the way, full of conversation and witty banter. Yay! Thanks for reading :)

Another fabulous chapter! Can't wait to see what's next :)
Author's Response: Thanks, JitC! I'm a sucker for happy endings...

Ooch, ouch, Callisto -- I should have known from the title that this was going to be a little sight-seeing trip through Angstville.
I need me some happy S4 or a proposal to make it all better. Or maybe just Ch. 5 (Are you free for dinner?)
Author's Response: Yeah, I'm with you, sistah. I miss their witty banter. Time to start talking again!

Author's Response: thanks flonkerton :) Things should get happy soon!
