Aw! This chapter was cute and short but still had a lot as far as character development, especially for Jim. Pam’s next flight can’t land soon enough!
Author's Response: Thank you! I'm afraid Pam's got some hours to go, but she will get there (I'm not going crazy AU by having her crash or anything, god forbid).

Yes! Another update! Surprisingly, I'm not minding the shorter chapters and the length of time it is taking for them to meet up (which I'm assuming they will, but you never know... :) ). It's keeping me hooked and mimics the pace of travel in a way... the stop and go rush and wait through airports that I've experienced. Nice job!
Thanks for writing!
Author's Response: This is kind of my M.O.: short chapters updated quickly. They will meet up, I'll say, but thanks for identifying exactly the effect I was going for with the travel thing. I hope you keep feeling that I've stayed true to that sensation!

I love this story. I can’t wait to read about when they finally face each other. But I really hope it doesn’t end there.
Author's Response: It won't (although that will probably be a/the climax). Thank you for the review!

Jim eats, Pam runs, they do quite simple things, and at the same time, they're getting close. It's delicious anticipation, and I can't wait to see what happened when her plane land!
Author's Response: Thank you! I hope you keep anticipating (although I'll promise that there will also be more beyond that moment).

Good on Mark to get through to Jim there in that recollection. Easy to see Jim could have gone down that path but still had friends to pull him back. Likewise that he remembered the lesson later.
For all the horror stories of air travel, sometime things just go right. Good to see more things going right for Pam.
Author's Response: Yeah, I wanted to tip my hat to the many fics where Jim does get a little lower than this along the way, but keep us up on the more straight and narrow I find more fun to write. Thanks for the review!

Some very wise advice from Mark there.
Why Foster’s the stereotypical beer of Australia I will never really understand... Although, there tends to be a bit of a default/classic beer in each state. I like your twist on the stereotype!
I’m glad Pam’s layover was relatively stress free. The travel gods really smiled down on her, which is a rare occasion! I loved her dry humor re the magazine headline.
Author's Response: I think it's a Fosters marketing campaign, honestly. Thanks for the feedback, as always!
