this was so heartwarming!! i was reading this and run by taylor swift started playing and it was the perfect timing! no but fr i loved the whole story, and you REALLY took me by surprise because when i read the description i assumed dwight was gonna be the one who read jim's letter (not sure how that would've worked but it seemed logical) but ROY was the one who read it? you had me hooked AND shocked!!! i also really liked how you wrote jim and pam's thoughts and how this whole story turned out!! you're an incredible narrator
also, i'm SO glad this fic is recent because most of the time here i feel very nostalgic seeing the dates of most of these stories; it's nice seeing that people are still here!!!
Author's Response: I'm always glad when people find my stories and enjoy them so much. It can be a challenge to find a new angle to take such well known characters so I'm thrilled you liked how I wove this tale. I very much appreciate how you pointed out what you specifically liked about this story. Thank you for the great comments.

OMG this is so, so satisfying to read, Warrior. Looking forward to part two!
Author's Response: Thank you! It was very satisfying to write some of those scenes too. Next chapter will hopefully be up soon.

Extremely funny outbursts from Roy (and Kenny)!
Author's Response: Glad you liked it.

I laughed out loud TWICE reading this! First, when Packer got punched and second, when Kenny got thrown in jail too! Also, I was horrified when Roy read the card!
This story is DELIGHTFUL! Can't wait for the next chapter! Thanks for brightening my evening, Warrior!
Author's Response: Clover! Wonderful to hear from you again! I'm so glad you enjoyed those parts. I had a lot of fun writing them. Sorry to scare you with Roy reading the card first. Don't worry we'll move on to better times from here. Thanks for commenting.

Enjoyed getting the scene where she exchanges the gifts. Things go downhill fast after that except that maybe they don't as Pam comes to some realizations.
Of course Roy sees the iPod as theirs. If he sees Pam as his property then it follows that all that she has is his too.
She's being swallowed in her life with Roy - evidenced by the lack of signs of her in the apartment.
That in comparing two very different men, it's easy to see which one truly cares about her and he's not the one she is with...or was with. Glad she's escaping that.
(got a kick out of Kenny winding up in jail too, ha ha)
Looking forward to what's in store at Santa's workshop
Author's Response: I think when she got the Teapot and then came to the realization that she needed to trade back for it, Pam was primed to realize which guy was really the best guy in her life. However, in canon before she could really act on those feelings Roy set a date and her real feelings got swept under the rug of wedding planning. So when things don't go like that, yup it all goes downhill quick. Great job picking up on that.
I'll sometimes redeem Roy, but Kenny will forever be an idiot in my writings. Same with Packer who got his well deserved punch in the jaw.
As a one time New Yorker, I have a feeling you'll enjoy what's coming at Santa's. Always love hearing from you.

Ooh I really like this slant on things with Roy seeing the note first, and it totally tracks he’d go in with his fist. Glad Dwight was there to save the day (obviously).
I’m glad Pam deleted all those voice mails and didn’t just run back to Roy. Also the use of ‘I can’t’ on the note was great
Looking forward to see what going on at Santa’s Workshop and for these two to hopefully talk it all out!
Author's Response: Thank you. I don't think I've ever read a fic where Roy reads the note so it was fun to imagine what his reaction would have been. Clearly it was an eye opening moment for Pam in a lot of ways. Don't worry there will be ample time for them to talk things out coming up. Thanks for the review.
