This felt happy to me! I loved the exchange where she admitted that she was awake because she was worried about him. That was just lovely. I really loved the beginning, too, with the stop lights and the things Karen had said (all of which I could 100% believe) and his journey across town to get to Pam. I also loved the middle and the end. So basically, I loved it all.

Honestly I think I could read them on the phone nonstop. You write it so well! I loved the little scene with Jim and Karen. Take a hint, Fillipelli, damn! I am looking forward to future phone calls and an in person meeting! Great job!

Author's Response: I am so pleased to hear that! Thank you so much and I felt like I should include Jim's life outside of his phone calls with Pam. Thank you so much!

This was so sweet! I loved it. I loved the way and the why that Pam left, and it was so perfect that the stranger on the plane was also Pam. She said all the things that I think so many of us think when we watch CN and season 3! Great job, again. I’ve enjoyed your writing so much and am so glad you have come to join us.

This is so cute and perfect. I’ve been wondering what this situation would look like for the Halperts. It’s funny, the ways we have all found to stave off boredom. I can totally seem Pam picking up the painting recreation gauntlet and nailing it! Well done.

This was absolutely perfect. I can absolutely see Pam picturing her relationships this way, and I loved the imagery that accompanied each description. Truly, this was lovely and beautiful. Wonderful job!

Author's Response: Thanks BT! I figured it kind of fit with the idea I have of Pam, so it’s nice to hear that you feel the same way.

This is a super interesting premise and it’s nice to see it work out without too many hitches in the plan! I’d be interested to hear the story behind why those laws exist, and also find out what happens to people who break them. But congrats on tackling your first multi chapter fic! Looking forward to more!

Hi, I have a question. How are you so FREAKING GOOD? This is two in a row from you that is 100% perfect. I laughed out loud at how you wrote Dwight, and Jim and Pam were both excellently written. So so good! Teach me your ways!

Author's Response: BT! I feel like my writing pales in comparison to all the brilliance on this site & this review has well & truly made my day. I needed this. Thank you.

This was so sweet! I loved it. Short fluffy pieces that give realistic depth to their relationship are some of my favorites. Great job!

Author's Response: Thank you!!!

This is so intriguing! I can’t wait to see what else unfolds. I can absolutely see Roy having that mindset and doing something as oafish as hitting on Katy, and Katy going for it. Can’t wait for more!

Author's Response: Thanks for reading! I'm a huge fan of yours.

I loved this! The bit of awkwardness and Jim telling her it wasn’t casual were so sweet to me. Great job!

Omg I’m on pins and needles at the end of this chapter! Ahh!

Also, one of the reasons I love historical AUs or romances or what have you is because I could never write it well or sound like I know what I’m talking about, and you have their voices down so perfectly! I see the Jim and Pam we know in this new time and setting while staying true to what would have been right or “proper” in post-civil war America. So good! Can’t wait for the next chapter!

Author's Response: Thank you so much, BT! I don't think I realized how much background research I would have to do for this when I started with this endeavor. Thanks for taking the time to review!

“I’m sorry, I did.” He attempted, very valiantly, to appear serious. “I do not mean to cast aspersions against your mother, but that is terrible advice.”

I mean, that did something to me.

Just the way they talked and how Jim is so immediately protective but that Pam still speaks up, his desire to get revenge on Roy (🎵Ro-oy started tha fiyah🎵) but how thats overridden by his desire to give Pam everything she wishes, and then the transition into THAT girl you know what you did!!! So beautifully written! So tender and sweet but also hot! Wow I love this story, I can’t wait to read more!

Author's Response:

So now I have that song in my head. 😂

Thank you BT! I’m so glad the progression through the conversation worked. There were a lot of little places I wanted to cover and I’m glad it didn’t feel jumpy. And well, the ending? Let’s just say I have been encouraged and inspired by all of the brilliant writing here and it pushed me to take it farther. Thank you so much for your review!

“his soul took a deep, solidifying breath. “

This is how I felt reading this chapter.

Author's Response: I love it, BT! Thank you!
