Summary: Past Featured Story

This picks up pre-merger and is spoiler free, a bit AU as well.  I began this back in October (maybe even September), and obviously the show has deviated quite a bit from what I speculated here.

This begins with angst, but there is a great deal of fluff, steam, smut, and silly...for several, several chapters.  My idea was to go beyond the happy ending, so to speak.

I know this story isn't new, but it was linked somewhere (or I found it in a Google search or something) and that's how I found this site. I just wanted to tell you what you've already heard from other people who are way better reviewers than me: "Only" is perfect. That's all.

Hi! I know this fic is old, but I read it a while ago and utterly loved it, but couldn't remember its name to find it again. When I saw you had written a review, I was able to find this wonderful story again. Just fantastic, from "Voldemort" to Pam sort of wanting a friendship with Karen.

Oh my God, I know this story is old but I found it recommended in the forums, and it's effing HILARIOUS. I love how it made fun of all the silly "OMG THEY'RE GONNA BREAK UP!!!!!" things everyone hyperventilated about all season (the lamp! The constant "waaah why isn't it Season 2!" Well-played.). The only thing I think it's missing is Pam saying, without any sort of warning, "no, Jim. I can't marry you. I have to FIND MYSELF." But, again, probably the single funniest fic I've ever read in this fandom. Fantastic job!

Author's Response: Dude, it's never too late for a review!  In fact, I get such a thrill when I get one for an older thing that someone just found - it's so awesome!  I'm so glad you got a laugh out of this!  This was the fastest writing I've ever done and unfortunately, it shows.  I was kicking myself all day because of the stuff I COULD have included!  Thanks so much for reading and taking the time to leave a review.  I've been a spotty reader and an awful reviewer lately and I feel terrible about it.  Need to get back on the stick with that and I think I remember that something of yours was rec'd fairly recently, so I'll be sure to check it out. 

Summary: How a little courage and honesty finally gave them both what they wanted.

Between this and "That's Coming," you're one of my favorite authors now, too. You get inside both their heads so well, and I can't tell, at all, that you had problems writing Pam. Will we find out who actually wrote that stuff about Jim? I bet it was Ryan. ;)

Author's Response: Thanks! I\'m glad to hear my Pam-struggles aren\'t as obvious as to others as they are when I\'m writing them. As for the notes...well, maybe it\'s a mystery. Or maybe we\'ll find out. I haven\'t decided :)~ Thanks for reading!

I love this story. For how dark and ugly the situations are, it's gorgeously written. I only hope things turn out okay in the end, but even if they don't, I'm sure it will be beautifully handled.

Author's Response: Thanks so much for your confidence! I hope the angst will continue to be satisfying and tolerable, and I promise you a happy ending!

Summary: This takes places right after the season 4 finale ends. Spoilers for season finale episode. This tory is all about the What/if's of season 5. What happens when Jim and Pam go home that night. This story continues way into the future. Jim gets a new job. Pam recieves jewelry wink wink etc. I have labeled all chapters that contain explict mature content.

Author's Response: Thanks, I did too when I wrote it. Hope you keep reading and letting me know how you think it\'s going.

Summary: Yeah, we didn't get our proposal, and I was as upset as anyone else, but think about how bad it could've gone. Here are a few examples. These are meant to be as horrifying as possible, but hopefully in a fun way.

This story is hysterical. I cannot, cannot, cannot wait to see what the ultimate horrible fate is at the end, and the running gag of Andy looking for Angela cracks me up.

Author's Response:

Thanks for the review! The horrible fate is pretty bad. I can't wait to post it! :)

Like I believe I said in my response to your review, your stories are gorgeous - in fact, I think you write the best Jim/Pam together and happy fics on the site. They're beautifully written and steamy and, well, just wonderful really. This one is no exception. Amazing job!

Author's Response: You are too kind, and I'm very flattered. And very pleased you liked this so much. Many thanks, bigtunette!

Oh, this is so great. From Jewish Jim (!!!!!) to the employees' reactions to, well, the proposal itself and all the scenes of Jim and Pam in general, it's so good. Well done!

Author's Response: How did you read this that fast... ? :) Thanks, tunette (nice name, btw). I\'m pretty sure I don\'t have the market cornered on embracing Jim\'s Jewish roots, but he\'s pretty darn cute like that, isn\'t he?

Summary: Onto the fourth episode in my series, created to hold us over until the Season 5 premiere. It's Dundie season, and Michael plans to make the annual award ceremony the best yet. His plan to distribute walkie-talkies around the office has its repercussions, and there's a proposal of sorts.

DUNDIES!!!!! Oh, that just makes me excited.

As I think others have said about your other fics, I like Natalie, but I'm not all that crazy about the Natalie/Jim relationship. Him not taking Pam's call worried me a little, but that's the only real critique I have.

Overall, these are really hysterical (I laughed out loud a lot) and show an excellent grasp of the characters. Great job!

Don't take this the wrong way, but... you should go for that job.

What would have happened if Jim had taken that job in Maryland after all? Season Two angst - spoilers for Halloween through Email Surveillance, then goes AU from there.

gahhh! I had this idea like two days ago! Anyway, I'm really thankful I didn't actually write any of it, because it wouldn't have been as good as this, quite frankly. It's a perfect look into Jim and Pam's heads, mid-S2. I can't wait to see what happens when he actually goes to Maryland. I'm definitely excited to read more!

Author's Response: Hi bigtunette!  Thank you for the lovely review.  This idea had been bouncing around for so long and I think for my sanity I needed to get it out on paper.  I knew it would only be a matter of time before someone else tackled this territory.  I'm glad you like it, and I hope you keep reading!  Thanks for the kind review.

I'm in love with this story. I just needed you to know. Once.

No, seriously, it's gorgeously crafted, perfectly in-character, and lush with detail both big and important and boring, small, and everyday. (And I'm blushing with that shout-out! I hope your stories don't go AU just because they're so lovely.)

This story is wonderful! Like one of the reviews above me said, it made Kelly (and Toby) into a real person, and not just a collection of girly shrieks. Also, Kelly/Toby? Honestly, a great pairing, and the development of their relationship here (and in your other Kelly/Toby stories, which I also enjoyed) is fantastic. Great job!

Author's Response: Thank you so much! I think they\'re a great pairing too and I really enjoy writing them. I\'ll post the sequel in a week or so.
