I love that she started the convo knowing that he's immediately know who it was and that is was the continuation of their previous talk - very "them," makes me think of The Carpet vm (What's that word we made up...?).  Anyway, I enjoyed it, well=written, wonderful language choices. 

(Also, Geometry was my first C...how I hated that class!)

Ok, so I'm gonna let you in on exactly how I work the whole MTT thing.  Throughout my work day, I sneak-check my e-mail to see if any favorites have been posted, and I look forward to reading them at home after work.  When I finally check MTT at home, I take stock of all the newly posted stories and open them in the order I want to read them - more than slightly obsessive compulsive, I know.  I always, always, save your stories for last because they make me so darn happy.  I can't stop smiling the whole time - I absolutely love everything you write.  And this series in particular I re-read whenever I need a pick-me-up. 

Also - good call on America's Next Top Model - it's priceless.

OK, truth time - my initial reaction to the synopsis was a mental groan because it's really hard to do babyfic without going super-sappy and OOC, but...you accomplished.  The banter is wonderful; love the humor and LOLed a couple of times. 

The avoidance at the beginning is spot-on; love the whole exchange about "making a baby"; I laughed so hard at Pam's "We're going to hell" and naming the baby Schrute.  I could go on, but this review would be freakishly long.  Essentially, the characterizations are great; the dialogue is wonderful; love the humor. 

To my mind, the most "in character" moment is Michael still being at the hospital.  He absolutely would, and he would totally drop a Chili's compliment.

I just have to tell you that this makes me happy.  I adore that you have her laying it on the line and telling him she'll wait - just great.

I just thought you should know I've read this about a dozen times - it's beatiful, like all your work, but if a I read a story into double-digits, it deserves singling out for review - the words, the setting, the characterizations - all gorgeous, all amazing.  I don't know how you do it.  Thanks for the work.

I am SO happy to see you continuing this.  I just love the setting and the story and the characterizations and the details.  And I think I want her dress.  ...and, umm...."Mr. Halpert" indeed!  Yes, I can agree with Nomad's assessment.

I've been extremely evil and rude and must apologize.  I've been gobbling this up as fast as you can crank it out, and I haven't reviewed.  I'm very sorry.  This is wonderful.  You are managing to tell an incredibly in=depth and emotional story on a diet of words, and I can't tell you how I admire that.  Thank you for the work this has taken; it's really wonderful.

I decided to reread an old favorite tonight.  One of my favorite things about your writing is that it bears rereading well.  This is still as beautiful as the first time I read it, and your story structure is wonderfully subtle, but powerful.  Comparisons of wool and stubble; that she takes what she can in thinking that his mouth may have grazed the scarf - being kissed via inanimate third party, that stabs my heart every time.

Really, just lovely

Ok, I've read this far and am hooked!  I really like that the characterization feels true to character even in such an AU situation.  Can't wait for the next part!

Funniest line ever? - “Well I guess you’ll have to write a letter of complaint… and send it to 1991.”  I laughed for almost a minute over that one.  Also, I was going to have to get harsh with you for the snarky Duchovny comment, but you saved it at the end. ;)  Poor Jim, doomed to repeat history...I think there was a Star Trek NG episode about that...

I owe you a MASSIVE apology.  I read everything you write - usually multiple times - and let out an embarrassing happy noise whenever I get a "LoveFool has a new story" e-mail, but I never review.  So, please accept this as an apology.  Your stories make me happy, and are wonderful on many levels.

“It’s just not good etiquette”  Dear heavens, I LOVE your Jim - he's awesome.  My anticipation for the next chapter knows no bounds - which is not to minimize the spectacularness of this and the preceding chapters. (It bugs me when I've worked hard on something and the only response I get is "yeah, that was great - give me more.")

I could literally feel the rising tension in this chapter - beautifully done.  Also - plastic replica Pam and "He left his brother on my car." Brilliant!

I am in love with Ryan/Kelly fic where he has to grovel for being an idiot.  This one is no exception - very funny, and I love the visual of Ryan slurping a blue slushy while ineptly stalking...OH! and that Kelly's talking makes the whole thing easier - just wonderful.
