This is some VERY strong and efficient characterization of Karen and Roy - I'm liking what I see of Karen's backstory in this. And Pam's inner monologue is just so tellingly self-critical. Please have someone give her a hug for me?
Obviously, she's captivated Jim just like he captivated her, and I love the little moments you've worked in where you see the cracks in his facade of nonchalance - he's sweating bullets. Oh, these kids.
Author's Response: Thank you so much! They’re so young, and so vulnerable, and 18 year old Pam really does need a hug, or five. She’ll be alright though, she just needs a little boost of confidence. So many roommates just ultimately “co-exist” together and don’t really ever become friends. That’s how I always saw Pam and Karen in S3, so writing them as roommates actually came so easy to me from their vastly different personalities and the way neither of them ever became catty. And oooh Jim, you’re right, he might have some smooth moves, but that’s boys a hot mess inside. There will be far more of that in the next chapter. Thank you so much for your reviews, you know I love them!

Absolutely sweet as heck. The way he knocks on the door? I. love. It. I cannot wait to see how their date goes. And the whole pre-med thing? I'm so interested to see where you take this!
Author's Response: Ahaha would Jim be Jim if he wasn’t sure what to do with his life? Of course not lol. We gotta keep things interesting for him, and UVM is a pretty good school so I like to think he’s a lil smarty. I can’t wait to continue writing more of this and to hear your thoughts!

D'awwwwww. I love that he's as smitten with her as she is with him. Also that things are done with Roy. They're both free to puruse a relationship with each other. Pam and Karen seem to be hitting it off too. That's always nice to see. Loved the use of canon lines. Can't wait to see their coffee date.
Author's Response: Thank you so much Eric! I am setting the scene nicely, there will be some interesting things that happen with Karen in the mix but our favorite couple will of course end up together! Thank you so much for your review!
