Feel-good love. A sequel/companion for Language Barrier. 
10 I nearly squeed out loud when I saw that there were more chapters of this!
Beautiful story!
I love the paragraph in the last chapter with all the colors from the previous chapters.
Pam tries to kill time when Sudoku just isn't cutting it for her.
10 I love that despite seeing him with Karen, Pam still knows how he feels about her (Pam) because he came back.
10 Lovely. I love all of these, but the last one is my favorite- very sexy.
Author's Response:
That last one is my favorite too. I'm also working on a supply closet fic right now...its actually my first mature content story featuring Jim and Pam so we'll see how that goes...I'm nervous!
No couples perfect. Sometimes they disagree on things. But some things...it doesn't really matter.
10 I loved these sweet moments between them.
The first one was my favorite- it gave me that butterflies/falling-in-an-elevator feeling in my stomach.
He'd sworn and she'd promised. Post Casino Night.

9 Sad, but beautiful!
9 Intriguing...
I like that at the end, even though she ended up between Jim and Pam in bed, Jim and Pam were the ones 'together' in the end, leaving Karen alone.
I'm not usuaslly into stories like this- where there's some kind of sexual fantasy involved that seems out-of-character for all involved, but you did a good job with this.
This is set several weeks post-Merger. No spoilers, all speculation.10 Wow. All I could think of when Pam saw Jim and Karen sharing that kiss was "Ouch!" I would love to see something like this on the show- Pam catching Jim and Karen sharing a sweet moment, which makes Pam cry, so she runs away and Jim goes after her, and conflict ensues. But in my head that's where they start to actually talk to each other. hehe.
Anyway, awesome story!
I'd love to see it on the show, too - or just a variation of it would do. She wouldn't even have to run away all dramatically as she did here; I just want Jim to catch her with that sucker-punched expression on her face....
Thanks for reviewing!
9 Loved this chapter. And I love that you included lyrics from "Save a Prayer". That's my favorite Duran Duran song!
Author's Response:
Thank you so much! And I'm so used to getting teased for my affinity for Duran Duran (from the late 80's-90's before they apparently came back with credibility - who'd have thunk it?) that your comment made me all kinds of happy. In intonations of Jim: Say what you will about Duran Duran, "Save A Prayer" is just haunting.
Thanks so much for the review - for all your reviews, actually!
Just a larger-than-the-average drabble I had an idea for with these two. Light hearted conversation, teasing, and you can let your imagination do the rest!
10 I like this a lot. I love how flirty they are with each other, and how each of them knows exactly what the other is thinking but makes believe they don't, and I love how they hide it all behind the "best friends" excuse.
Author's Response: Thanks so much. ;)
Fancy New Beesely's made some changes since...
Originally posted as just "Pillows", but then that spawned more ideas. ^_^
10 Aww, sweet last line!
And I sleep with three pillows, too. hehe.
Hehe.. thanks! And yeah.. I do too. obviously this is me projecting myself on Pam. Lucky girl.
Jim and Karen take a trip to Montreal. Jim POV. First time fanfic period, so, you know, excuse the suckage. 10 Wow, this is really good. Really makes you think about these characters. Amazing job, especially for your first fanfic!
Author's Response: Thanks! I hope people will give Karen and Jim a chance, if the show moves in that direction, because I think they're a really compelling couple for a lot of reasons.
10 Wow, this is really good. Really makes you think about these characters. Amazing job, especially for your first fanfic!
A series of related drabbles that begin prior to The Merger and continue on from there.

This is the first song I knew in all the chapters so far.
Sam Phillips is one of my favorites.
10 Wow, really beautiful.
Author's Response: Thanks, Puff! :)
10 Wow, so beautiful. Made me teary a little.
Author's Response: Wow! Thank you so much!
This is a Karen focused stream of conscious/pov on all things developing in Scranton... contains mild spoilers through The Convict. Since it is Karen centered right now it is mostly Jim/Karen focused, but clearly Pam is there too and will likely play a larger role in the future.
9 Good story. Very good observations of Karen, Pam, and Jim.
Title comes from the INXS song of the same name (the original INXS, with Michael Hutchence).
Not enough time for all that I want for you...
10 Eee, Love it so far!
More!
10 WOW, that was so hot. Such a sweet, sexy chapter.
Author's Response: Glad you liked it, PuffingNoise - and I loved your latest, BTW!
10 I'm reviewing this chapter again, because I'm more coherent now, and I wanted to say that what I really loved about this chapter was that even though I have absolutely zero personal experience, I thought the sex in this chapter seemed so real. It wasn't "perfect" like what a lot of people seem to want to write in fanfic. I mean, it wasn't clumsy or anything either, it was just... real. For some reason, my favorite part was actually when Jim tells her she feels so good, and she responds in kind and then arches her back and lets out a little noise and he pulls back for a second and asks if she's okay. Now in a lot of other fics, I think that would be a Jim-reading-her-mind kind of moment where he doesn't have to ask what her little yelp was about, but it seemed so much more real this way that she would be overwhelmed with the sensation and suddenly verbalize it, and Jim would just want to make sure he wasn't hurting her or something.
Anyway, brava again!
Author's Response: Thanks so much, PuffingNoise, for taking the time to do this - I really appreciate such specific feedback about what works and what doesn't (particularly when it comes to writing sex scenes). I'm so relieved that it came off as real, because that is what I was going for with it. So again - thanks for taking the time to review (again)!
Post The Convict - just a brief scenario, pondering that episode. Jim, Pam, Karen, Einstein...the usual gang. (Originally written as one of a collection of scenes; decided to let it be a stand alone. For now.)
10 This was really Sweet. I love it, and I hope you continue.
Author's Response: Thanks, PuffingNoise! I'm happy you liked it.
10 Aww, really sweet.
Author's Response: Thank you!
Jim, Pam...and a partridge in a pear tree. There are 12 days of Christmas - there will be 12 chapters of this story.
10 Wow, awesome. I can't wait for more!
Author's Response: Thanks PuffingNoise! SOON!
10 Really sweet chapter!
I loved this line because it seemed so real, and not an observation I ever remember reading in fanfic: Pam turns in his arms to face him, loving the feel of his skin brushing against hers.
Author's Response: Aww thanks PuffingNoise! So glad you liked it!
