Bio:
Hmm...I started reading X-Files fanfic about 10 years ago (yikes!) and consider myself quite the aficianado, having read everything from the cringe-worthy horrible to the breathtakingly amazing. I "retired" from reading fanfic about four years ago, when my "real" life started to kick into gear (fell in love, got married, etc.), but have since discovered a little show about a paper company in Scranton, PA. I knew it was all over when I discovered MTT, and I was quickly sucked into the world of Jim and Pam. Reading fanfic is now one of my greatest guilty pleasures again, and I've finally started to dip my toes into writing some, too.

Oh! Thank goodness I'm a night owl! I was sooo happy to see this story finally continue! Plus, I live in the Pittsburgh area, so it's always awesome to see the 'burgh pop up in a story! Thanks, PPC, and pleeease don't make us wait so long for more.
Date: May 05, 2009 Title: Chapter 11: Emerald Ceramic
I'm soooo happy you updated this, PPC!! I thought you had abandoned us, but what a pleasant surprise on the most recent page. Your AU is so believable -- I love 1950s period pieces for some reason. Such a romantic era (though I'm concerned for Mr. Halpert with all of his smoking). Please update again soon, especially after this last chapter!

Oh, Sweetpea, this is one of the best stories I've ever read! Usually, I don't like the concept of J/P moving somewhere else, where the Scranton folks aren't a regular part of their lives, but the Buffalo move seemed to really fit. Since the strike, I've been reading a lot of fic, and I was always so excited to see that "Allentown" had been updated. Now, we need the next great masterpiece!
Author's Response: Good grief, this was so great to read, Mountaineers! I'm glad you think the Buffalo move seemed to fit. I think it's a town similar to Scranton and not so far away and they had the nice connection with Jim's parents having lived there, too. It's so cool to read that you excited to see updates to this and thanks so much for this review. I'm taking a little bit of a breather, and I don't know about masterpiece (gulp!) but there will be more! Hope to see you then.

Loving the story so far! Eck, good luck with the teeth. I had mine done about a month ago (surgically). It's no fun, but you'll feel like yourself in a few days.
Author's Response: Glad you like it. :) The teeth aren\'t as bad as I thought, but I am so sleepy right now from the meds.

Callisto, you're a great author! Keep up the good work, please!
Author's Response: Thanks!!
Date: May 28, 2008 Title: Chapter 6: and sore must be the storm
Loved it! I am always thrilled to learn more about Jim's life outside of work, since we're given so very little detail about him in the actual show. Loved the little descriptions of his apartment, and I can see this as Jim's real life. Please hurry with the picnic chapter. I'll be looking forward to it!
Author's Response: Thanks Mountaineers02! I kind of like that they don\'t give us much background detail, that way I get to make it up. :) Thanks for reading, and I\'m at work on the next part...hopefully it will flow the way Jim\'s parts have been doing for me lately. Thanks for reading!
Date: September 23, 2008 Title: Chapter 8: that kept so many warm
Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! If the premiere weren't in a few days, this would've made my week! It's a close second, though. I've been waiting for this all summer, and it was kind of like a season-ending cliffhanger. But you've wrapped it up nicely. If you choose not to continue this story, I'll be happy with the ending. But I've re-read the first few chapters about 14 times, no joke, because It's probably seriously my favorite first date fic of all.
Author's Response: Hey Mountaineers, I was thinking of you the other day when I was finishing this chapter and watching CU steal an unexpected victory from WVU ;) I\'ve got a few more bits in the works before it\'s over, but it\'s all outlined and ready to go. Thanks so much for the kind words... means a lot to me!

Once again, great work, Callisto! Side note: as I was watching "Job Fair," and Jim was talking about his "long-term plans," I immediately thought of this story. I Jim's proposal is half as good as this one!
Author's Response: Thanks Mountaineer! (You a WVA alumnus?) I admit it was pretty cool to hear him say that, and I was pretty pleased to think I\'d guessed his mental state correctly. I hope they give us something really amazing for the season finale.
Date: May 10, 2008 Title: Chapter 4: Chapter 4
Thanks Mountaineer! (You a WVA alumnus?)
Yes, I am! Just responding to your question, but please keep up the good work. You're becoming one of my favorite authors, up there with Stablergirl, Girl7 and Becky215. Look forward to reading more of your work.
Thanks!
Author's Response: I consider that a huge compliment as all three of those are among my favorite authors here. Thanks!

Oh, this chapter was so good! I have to admit, I am usually on the bandwagon of we don't have to really see their wedding for me to be satisfied, but after reading this, I would love to see them finally get married. This is exactly how I would picture a Jim and Pam wedding, complete with Dwight as some sort of guard with a contract. Excellent story so far, Dundie All-Star. Please keep it coming!
Author's Response: Thank you! I feel that way too, actually; in fact, I would love if we came back in season 5 and they were already engaged or something. I\'m really glad you\'re enjoying this though, and if we do get to see their wedding I hope it\'ll have some humorous elements in it, like Dwight as a bodyguard. Be on the lookout for more; there\'s three more chapters to go!

mmm. Sizzle. Excellent, Wendolf. And the haircut is delicious, btw. I've felt that Jim's hair in the last few eps was a bit scraggly. But I'd still like to "ride the elevator" with him. Keep up the good work.
Author's Response: Thanks! I\'m with you . . . the scraggly hair isn\'t my favorite, but I\'ll take the guy any way he comes, frankly (TWSS). Thanks so much for reading and reviewing, Mountaineers02!
Somewhere between the Dairy section and the cereal aisle he has an epiphany.

“So here’s the thing,” he begins and somewhere on the journey from the kitchen to here he’s fallen apart a little and his voice is low and gravelly, “I can’t promise you that the fireworks are always going to work out perfectly, or that the Champagne will be fancy and expensive, or even real Champagne. But I can promise you that I’m always going to want those things for you, I’m always going to think you deserve them. And when something goes wrong, I am always, always, going to come back and try again because this life that we have, it’s worth it.”
Shootingstars, this is brilliant. Exactly how I would see Jim proposing. Great Job. Can we get another chapter?
Author's Response: Thanks so much for taking the time to quote and comment on my story, I\'m really glad you liked it. As for another chapter, maybe at some point but I can at least promise I\'ll be posting plenty more fics over the summer because I am unemployed and have a long break til University starts again!
It was by far, bar none, the best moment of Jim Halpert’s life. Another proposal story.

This was, at once, totally sweet and hilarious! Love it! I'm a huge sucker for proposal stories of all sorts, and I'm guessing I'll dork out my summer by reading them until September 25. Then, hopefully we'll have the real story of what happened. Thanks, nqllisi!
Author's Response: No, thank YOU! Thanks for reading and for the nice comment. I'm a sucker for proposal stories, too- I've written at least three others that I can think of- and I am definitely looking forward to whatever the writers throw at us. Thanks again!

Date: June 03, 2008 Title: Chapter 4: The Chase
Nice work, Nightswept. I have to admit, I was nervous about Natalie at first. I'm not sure if it's more of a threat for Pam to have a romantic rival (because we know Jim would never cheat), or for her to have a BestFriend! rival. I always thought that the Karen story on the show would have been much more intense if Jim and Karen would have never actually dated, but if Karen would have stepped in as a best friend to Jim. That would've really done some harm to Pam, I think. Anyway, back to the review -- I like how this is playing out so far. I'm always excited when the new chapters come out, and I appreciate that you're churning them out so fast. I hope Jim goes after the teaching thing, that he doesn't let Pam's dreams hold him back, although I think that Pam would support him 100%, whatever he chooses to do. Oh, and I'm glad that Josh is a part of this story. I love Jim's fictional siblings...in my head, they're as real as if we'd actually met them on the real show. And please let Pam and Natalie meet sometime soon.
Author's Response: Thank you for the great review. I can definitely see Pam having Jim\'s back and supporting him in his personal aspirations. I think Jim is holding back certain feelings from Pam, and afraid to let her know how truly unhappy he is working at Dunder Mifflin. (I don\'t know why, I kind of sensed this watching actual episodes of the show.) It\'s just a matter of him actually communicating those feelings to Pam. Natalie, as a friend and now the only other normal person in the office and also someone who\'s now taking a place in his life outside of work by dating his brother, is someone he felt he could vent his frustration to. I definitely plan on bringing Pam in soon. I think her and Natalie would make great friends (Pam so needs a girlfriend she can talk to).

I really liked this, Talkative. It's funny, I was looking up surname meanings the other day (totally bored at work), and I looked up Halpert and found out the same info. It's funny, because I always pictured Jim as Catholic, since JK is. Anyway, totally realistic Pam (something I always struggle with) and I loved the neighbor ladies. A refreshing break from all the angst floating around that as soon as Pam goes all NYC, she and Jim will hit the rocks. Please write some more!
Author's Response: Thanks, Mountaineers! Honestly, I think I wrote it this way because I\'m trying to whistle past my worry that the writers will opt for the \"hit the rocks\" scenario come fall. ::shudder::
Date: June 04, 2008 Title: Chapter 2: The Second Month
This. Is. Amazing. So nice, I read it twice (in a row). Please keep up the good work, and I can't wait for part three (and anything else you have in store). Every time a read a good engagement story, I think of how I would like to see it really happen, and I have to say, this is definitely at the top. Unfortunately, I don't think we're going to see the "Pam and the City" on the actual show, but I love how you've kept her in perfect characterization, but still being the Pam that we know. And smokin' hot (literally) Jim in cufflinks will be living in my head for days now. Excellent work again, Talkative.
Author's Response: Hi, my name is Talkative, and I have a cufflink fetish...
Date: June 08, 2008 Title: Chapter 3: The Third Month
Could this story have gotten any better? No! Thanks again, Talkative! Hmm. I'm thinking sequel in addition to the prequel...the wedding, perhaps? What was going on with Jim these three months, perhaps? No pressure, lol. Brilliant, and I'm looking forward to your next work. A side note..I like the idea of Jim being upwardly mobile in the company without officially taking Ryan's job. This is what I'd like to see happen on the show.
Author's Response: \"What was going on with Jim these three months, perhaps?\" Yeah, this has occurred to me, but I\'m not convinced that there\'s enough there. I\'ll have to think about it. I\'d kind of like to know what he\'s thinking, watching Pam go through all of this.

Yay! New story from Callisto! Very nice work. I was thinking about how Pam is going to be able to pay for school, also. She's a bit old for her parents to be helping her, and a receptionist from Scranton wouldn't be able to afford an expensive school like Pratt on her own, so I wonder what the writers are going to dream up for her to magically pay for it. I can see a situation like this happening, where Jim helps her out. Once again, excellence.
Author's Response: Thanks Mountaineers! The realist in me always wonders about these kind of details. As a perpetual college student myself, I couldn\'t help wanting to explore it. I\'m glad you liked it, and thanks for reading!

Aaw, love it. Since I've kind of come down from my "real" Jim and Pam proposal high, I actually thought to myself the other day, "What happened to Philly Jam?" Glad to see you back, Dundie! How 'bout a sequel over Christmas break? Pretty please?
Author's Response: Thank you so much!! I\'ll admit it, by the end of summer I was losing a bit of steam on this story. But that \"real\" proposal definitely jolted this story back to life. I mean, I always was going to end it with a proposal, but seeing it actually happen on the show was quite the motivator. ;) I\'m not sure what I\'d write for a sequel, but I have another short, fun fic in the works that hopefully I\'ll post soon. Thanks again; really glad you liked it!!
Date: August 24, 2008 Title: Chapter 10: Next Time
DAS, I'm totally digging this story. Sorry I haven't commented until now, but I absolutely love it! I have to admit, I'm not usually a fan of AU, but this definitely ranks right up there in one of the best ones I've read. The characters are spot-on in their "other" roles. I've been waiting for something dramatic with Roy to happen, so please don't delay the next chapter!
Author's Response: Thank you so much!! I\'m really glad you were compelled to review; it\'s always nice hearing from new readers! I know what you mean, I\'m not a huge fan of AU either (mostly because a lot of the AU plots are done over and over again), so I\'m glad my story is different enough for you to enjoy. Thanks so much again, and look for an update soon!
