Jim sees a therapist. Starts in the midst of season two. I'm not sure when the last time you updated this was, but it is INCREDIBLE and HAS to be finished, PLEASE!
Four seasons of Jam from Jim's POV. More immediate-future fluff, I just can't help myself. Spoilers for episode 4.04: Money.Aaaahh! This is the kind of fanfiction I love to read. I hope you've written more than this; I'm off to check right now.
Author's Response: Thanks! I did write something recently from Pam's POV called Catch Me When I Fall that is similar. Does that help? Or am I just shamelessly plugging my other writing? lol
What Jim will remember about their night at Schrute Farms.
Spoilers for "Money."
10 and MY heart aches with the promise of another story from you... and quickly!
What if Pam refused to let Angela drop her off at home after the Dundies?
“I want to go to Jim’s,” Pam said, interrupting Angela’s thoughts.
Angela felt as though her head might pop off and land in one of her cup holders. Would the depravity of this night never end?
10 Oh my god, this is so great! So funny without being contrived! Now let the woodland creatures sing. :)
Author's Response: lol, thanks! Great name, by the way!
guh, I hope this has a happy ending.
Author's Response: *secretive smile*
“You cannot come home with me,” Angela finally said, trying to keep her voice even. “My cats have conjunctivitis, and I only have one set of goggles.”
If you wrote a ghost script to apply for a writing job for The Office, and this line was in it, you'd totally be hired.
10 perfect! I wish it were longer, though. :(
Author's Response:
THank you! And there'll be at least one more chapter, so more's on the way. :o) (BTW - love your handle. Hee.)
Thanks for reviewing!
ooh! I didn't want that to end! Purlease write another installment! I love your juxtaposition of Angsy Jim and HappyDazed Jim.
Author's Response:
Heh - yours is one of those screen names that makes me giggle every time I read it. :o) I'm glad you enjoyed the angsty alongside the happy -- because the angst was ENORMOUS in this particular chapter, I know. (And - *cough* - that's what she said.) :oD
Thanks for reviewing!
Oh gawd. JimJimJim. I'm kind of nervous to see what happens to him this season. Great missing scene!
Author's Response: Hopefully they resolve the strike and we get to find out. Thanks.
Completed10 hmmm, what if they HAD talked all night? They could've.
Another brilliant installment. I'm so glad there's going to be more to this. You take these really sad moments and make them interesting instead of just sad. So... way to be sad AND interesting!
Author's Response: Thanks so much :) Yes there will definitely be more, The Merger is up next. I\'m glad you find it interesting, I don\'t want it to be too depressing. A lot of sad Jim/Pam moments also say a lot about the characters and their relationship so I guess thats what I\'m trying to get across. Glad you\'re enjoying :)
Personally, I thought Pam's was funnier than Jim. Now, if anyone asks me what my superpower would be, I will tell them that not only would I explode at will, I would be in love with myself. And make it rain.
Author's Response: Thanks! I appreciate your review! The only reason I picked Jim's over Pam's is because when I play with my favorite four year old, I'm Pooperman and those are my powers. Pam's was just made up on the spot. Pooperman is real! Thanks for your review, I think you'd make a great superhero!
Yet another story inspired by a song by Ingrid Michaelson called Breakable. I really wanted to tell a story about people being just that -- breakable, and ultimately how grace helps keep us from falling apart. So yeah -- a nice fluffy holiday piece. ;-)Aw; I'm sad that there's only one more chapter, but I've certainly enjoyed the ride. Quick updates, too!
Wow. This has just become a classic in my eyes.
Author's Response: Ok...I just got a little worked up over that comment. Wow...thank you.
10 This is so great. It's like Jim is closer and closer to his breaking point what with Roy being there and Pam breaking down, and the tension that is keeping him from meshing, but he doesn't feel like he has the right to break down because of what's going on. This is so fabulous; I'm really really excited to see how this develops. :D
Author's Response: Grandmutter what nice reviews you have! ;-) Thanks so much, I'm glad you've stuck with it from the beginning, so awesome. Jim is being pretty strong through all of this, we'll see if he can keep it up and if Pam let's him in...
Wait a second... this isn't a one shot. It will be extrapolated. I get it now. :) I'm excited for the rest of this!
Author's Response: haha...yes it will be extrapolated soon! :-) Thanks for the feedback.
Hmm, this was a little hard to follow. Was it a continuation of something?
Dear Angela,
I'm confused. Are you a Catholic or a Protestant? Apparently you have a Virgin Mary prayer card on your desk, but you seem too straight-laced to be Catholic. Catholics can get wild... just look at the Irish. "Alchies" and all that.
But "heathen" sounds a little Muslim... or is that "infidel"?
What do you believe, exactly?
Respectfully and with discretion,
Grandmutter
Woa, it looks like you're carting all of your work from livejournal to over here.
I love this -- read it on livejournal yesterday -- it's very realistic and non-confrontational, which I expect from Pam, but was kind of suprised to see from Roy... what was his rationale behind that.
Oh, and I wonder what Jim would think of that whole thing... second chapter??? :D
Author's Response: Yeah, one of my friends convinced to start posting here as well as LJ.\r\n\r\nAs for why Roy wasn\'t confrontational, it\'s because it\'s set after they\'ve already had one of those sorts of situations (mentioned in the story as a conversation they had where they decide to remain friends). He\'s already gotten all his huffiness and puffiness out. And writing that makes me want to go and write that conversation...\r\n\r\nHmm, Jim. Now, see, that gives me another idea... so maybe I\'ll take these ideas and add them on as chapters. :)
Looooooooved this! I want another chapter!
9 This is hilarious! I like how you incorporate our favorite couple into a story centering around Black Friday. I hope that there will be character development brought about by their experience... maybe like some lessons learned or a revealing conversation...
And I'm a Black Friday virgin. Is it really like that?! Woa!
8 What a great beginning! I can definately see one of them popping soon. I hope you update quickly... but I guess I can understand if real life gets in the way. Siiigh.
Author's Response: I promise I\'ll try not to take forever... Thanks for your review, I\'m really glad you liked that first chapter.
This will be a series of self-contained chapters (oneshots) exploring various "what ifs" pertaining to episodes spanning seasons one through three. Each chapter will examine how things would've gone differently if either Jim or Pam had responded to a given situation the way that (most) fans had wanted or almost expected them to.
For example, the first chapter focuses on how things would've happened differently if Jim had confessed during those twenty-seven seconds of silence on the booze cruise when we were all holding our breath and hoping he would.
Among the other chapters I have mapped out: What if all the reminders of Jim in "Gay Witch Hunt" had provoked not a small, sad smile from Pam at the end of the episode, but rather, had motivated her to take action -- drive to Stamford to see him for the first time in four months? Or what if Jim had responded to Pam's text in "Diwali" via a post-Jagermeister phone call? What if Jim had walked in on Pam crying at the end of "Back From Vacation"? (...You get the idea.)
Again, though, each chapter will be confined to an episode, so it will essentially be a series of oneshots that are unrelated to each other.
This is so great. Such... arm-hair-raising suspense! Powerful descriptions. Just arresting.
Hilarious! I laughed out loud at the porn line.
10 This is so good! I spent such a long time reading it, just to let certain lines sink in. You know just how to build up tension until it snaps and crackles. I'm so looking forward to updates! (Oh, and I also think this story should be featured -- just my opinion) :)
Short n' sweet!
Author's Response: Thanks for reading!
