I love that Michael's words ring true for her, too - she really could've used this speech from him during Season 3.
Also: your Good Place reference did not go unnoticed.
Author's Response: Thank you! I love both of those shows, so I couldn't resist.

Oh this was lovely, blissful, perfection. I love that we began with Pam's stagnant, passive existence and end with this beautiful realization. Wonderful chapter; one of my favorites in this story so far.
Author's Response: Thank you so much! I am very grateful for your positive feedback and your careful attention to the story arc :)

As I sit here, eating the same breakfast as per usual, wearing my standard work fare, I feel very called out by this chapter 😂 My own routine monotony aside, this was great & it felt very natural that Pam would reach a moment of helplessness and lose hope. I loved that you used Michael’s speech as you did, and when you did - it was very fitting to have It factor into Pam’s journey like that (as opposed to Jim’s as it tends to). I can’t wait to see where her newfound determination gets her!
Author's Response: I mean, as someone who also does those things, I'm not in a position to call anyone else out ;-). But I'm really glad you enjoyed this!

Depressed Pam makes a lot of sense here. Being stuck in the same day after day with no forward progress being made? I would make anyone feel down. I get the feeling she knows what she wants now, but she just doesn't know how to get it. She's tried and tried but nothing works so she's thrown away her flint, steel, and anything else that could start a fire.
You've kept me guessing throughout this tale. Just when I think there's going to be a breakthrough, something else comes up. Good way to keep the suspense up. As always nice job working in show elements. Fancy New Beesly being the big one.
I did like that it was the moment of her overhearing Jim and Micheal's conversation that gave her her spark back. The way she so very much wants to hear the rest of what Jim has to say is also very endearing. I can't wait to see what she does with her newfound determination.
Author's Response: Thank you for all the detailed feedback as usual. Looking forward to what you think of the next chapter, where there is indeed a breakthrough (or two).

YAY!! I was wondering if she would hear that part of Michael's and Jim's conversation. I'm looking forward to next chapter!
Author's Response: Yay indeed! Hope you enjoy the next one; we're in the homestretch now!
