I think I'm going to spend a long time wondering if Isabel being afraid of bears helped or hurt her relationship with Dwight.
Author's Response: I would argue help, since he probably believes that women, being the weaker sex, are having a correct cardiovascular response by trying to flee from the presence of the inarguably superior bear specimens (or something like that). Thanks for reading!

This story makes me equal parts angry and sad. I don't LIKE Pam feeling so unappreciated and lost and she doesn't even matter in her own relationship and ugh, I know it's coming, I know she gets rid of him, but get rid of Roy now.
You're doing a fantastic job of keeping my levels of hating Roy really high. I just want him to get hit by a truck.
Author's Response:
And now we've gone from punching to a truck. Oh dear.
I wonder: does this mirror your reaction to the series? Because it does for me. I find myself increasingly frustrated with the series here because I feel for Pam so much.

Remember a couple of reviews ago when I said I kind of felt sorry for Roy? I take it back. ;)
This is so wonderful; I love that moment where Pam wonders if this is what giving up looks like. So wonderful.
Author's Response: Thank you! Part of the point of this series is for me to have a chance to think about how this particular (Pam/Roy) relationship evolved and how it can be toxic and yet not quite break the camel's back for so long (to mix metaphors). I'm so happy to hear from your feedback that it's convincing.

Pam is a better woman than I! Mind you, I don't cook...but if I did, it would have to be for a better audience than Roy. Great depiction of the reality of the relationship versus the visual poor Jim had when he heard Roy's promise in the office.
Author's Response: I mean, she's also more of a doormat, sadly. Thank you for the feedback, and I'm glad that Jim's visual being wrong works for you (it certainly does for me..)

I feel for Pam here. Her frustration at dating a teenager in a man's body. That she's starting to realize he's not worth it anymore is good to see. I know there's still a lot to slog through. Sorry no really big in depth write up this time. What else really needs be said about this than what you so eloquently put down?
Author's Response: Hey, I appreciate the short feedback just as much as the long! I wish Pam had woken up a little faster...but I think both in canon and in this story she's aware of the problems with Roy and her appreciation of Jim a lot before she puts two and two actually together. Right now I'd say she's at a good 3.5 out of 4...
