“PAM!” I screamed anyway, adrenaline flowing through me, and you jerked into alertness, slapping the water in the bath and sending a strong splash through the air in response.
“WHAT?!” You screeched back in equal alarm, and I grabbed your face and kissed you right there in the tub, truly close to actually crying, because you scared the crap out of me.
For some reason this image has just really stuck with me.
I think this was a good observation about even Pam sometimes being frustrated with Jim's lack of seriousness and how they might work through that.
I feel like these are not very good reviews, but I very much enjoyed this fic and really wish you had written more in this fandom.

I just discovered this in the archive and think it's so well written. I enjoyed it so much and am excited to read your other story too. I hope you continue to write and post more here. Thanks for this.

This is quite nice. I love peeks into their lives, especially in first-person POV, and this hit the spot. Angst mixed with happiness is bliss :)

YAY, thank you for my birthday present :D
This was lovely. The way you had Jim showing Pam that he CAN be serious made me go all melty. How he asked if they could talk later, and didn't just let the awkwardness take over - that was really lovely. Everything about this chapter was great, and I hope this means we'll be seeing more of you around here :)
Author's Response: YAY! Thank you!!

Oldleaf, this was lovely. Hearing laid-back Jim vocalize everything that makes him "frazzled"was just so sweet and heartfelt. Love it.
Author's Response: Thanks so much, NanReg

This is absolutely wonderful! The anxiety attack was so believable that I could see it happening. I love that Jim knows just the right things to say to her, and I love that he admits that he does take things seriously and just wants her to be happy. I absolutely love the line And honestly, truly, when things are at their absolute worst, I'm still completely happy as long as I'm with you. It says so much from him without overstating it or being cheesy, though he says it is. I am gushing, but I do need to just say that your characterization is spot on here in both chapters. I really hope you have more things in the works for all of us to read! -adds to favorites-
Author's Response: Aw, Deedldee, thank you!!

I love this. I'd forgotten about the first part of this (just re-read it) and it's so sweet without being too gushy. This second chapter, I love how you portray the relationship-- that he just asks if they can talk later (doesn't let the argument fester) and of course she says 'okay' even though she's upset. Love all the expressions of how anything bad happening to her scares the hell out of him. Great stuff. :)
Author's Response: Oh, thank you so much, callisto! I'm so excited to get a review from you - you're one of my favorites! I'm glad it isn't too gushy - I tried really hard to keep it from being so, and when it does start to veer too far, having one of the characters be like, "Yeah, this is cheesy" or something. :P
