Away From the Cameras: Season Three by girl7 Rated: M [Reviews - 55] 27
Summary:

This is along the same lines as my other Away From the Cameras, in the sense that I'm exploring scenes that might have happened off-camera (or simply those that we didn't get to see).

A few things: First, I'm working on the assumption that a lot of what I wrote in the AFtC for season II stands (though I likely won't reference any of it here), up until Casino Night.  (Clearly I was quite off about what happened after the kiss...heh.)

Second, there will be flashbacks filling in the blanks of what happened immediately after CN (how long did Jim work? how did he and Pam ultimately leave things? how did she end things with Roy? how did Jim find out about her cancelling the wedding?); the flashbacks will happen largely in the chapters pre-merger (to keep things interesting for Jim/Pam fans during their physical separation).

How have I not read this yet?? This is absolutely hilarious! It would be amazing to do it on a larger scale, with all of the "power couples" of The Office involved. John and Marlena would have to be Dwight and Angela. Bo and Hope= Jim and Pam. Michale and Jan could be Lucas and Sammy. Then you have the youngins (sorta) with Shawn and Belle by Ryan and Kelly.  With the Vances rounding out the cast as the elder Bradys. Hee hee!



Author's Response: I don't know how you missed it but I'm so glad you liked it!  Isn't it kind of scary how similarly the parllels run between the Office and Days?  Bo & Hope are totally Jim & Pam and yeah.  Thanks for reviewing!!

You know what the funny thing is? Of all the cities in Europe I have been to (so far) Rome has always ranked as my least favorite one. But this story had made me really want to go back! Especially if I was on vacay with one Mr. James Halpert. ;) You are doing a wonderful job, I can't wait for more! *cough*twss*cough*



Author's Response: Hee!!  I'm so glad that I could make you love Rome.  You have to go to the city when it's quiet (which is August, cause everyone is on vacation)- but there are certainly things I didn't like about the city... but it is the home of romance, right?  Wouldn't we ALL want to go on vacay with Jim?  Hehehe.  Thanks so much for reading and reviewing!
