Bio:

Author of the month December 2018

I was around this site many years ago, during seasons 4 and 5, and then went on an unexpected hiatus for several years. I'm back and better than ever! Finished up one WIP ("Sociology 101") and might finish another if inspiration strikes. For now, working on new material and enjoying being back!

Hi, finally all caught up with this and it was truly one of the most lovely things I’ve read. I love how you captured each of them so well through this third party observer/sometimes gentle push giver and it really painted all of these familiar characters in a new light that I just adored. I loved every second! Perfection, each chapter.

Summary: The MCU vs. DCEU battle comes to Dunder Mifflin. Scenes inspired by certain real life casting rumors, set sometime late Season 7. #11 in the Rejected Cold Opens series.

Date: March 28, 2022 Title: Chapter 1: For pacing reasons we lost a joke about Michael creating a totally original series of comedies about a police academy called Cop School

Honestly if you went all the way and wrote an entire episode based on MCU/DCU movies in the OCU I’d absolutely read it. Golden(face).

Author's Response: *writes furiously*

Summary:

Pam just wants to see Rex Manning in concert on New Year's Eve. And Jim just wants to see Pam happy as they go into 2009. But will a snowstorm, an ill-fated double date, and a hungry llama stand in the way of their plans?

*Set in Season Five between "Moroccan Christmas" and "The Duel" for the 2021 Secret Santa Fic Exchange

“He says it is as smooth as our grandmother’s porcelain dolls.” Made me cackle

Is it weird to say that I kind of loved Mose? Sometimes he’s a little bit weirdly sweet and you captured that so well!

And ofc, the way you write Jim and Pam is incomparable. The way they love each other and love loving each other is so palpable in your writing. I adore it and you and this. And Rex Manning.

Summary: The planets rotate around the sun. Today, Pam and Jim discover what a certain cruciverbalist rotates around.

A cold open set in early Season 4. #12 in the Rejected Cold Opens series.

I am just really amazed that you wrote these crossword clues. I never in my life would have guessed these. Also kind of love that part of the magic is the desk-if only Ronnie and Jim had had more time over it, who knows where they’d be now?

Author's Response: One thing I discovered in the process of writing this fic: it turns out it's WAY easier to come UP with a crossword clue starting from a word you want to get to then it is to figure out the word from the clue. True story!

True. Or for that matter Jim and Ryan. Or Erin and Dwight... the possibilities are endless!

This is adorable. I love when Jim and Pam get picked up and put somewhere new but we get glimpses of the relationship we know through reimagined dialogue and moments and things like that. And I REALLY love how you put in Michael and Holly! So sweet. Looking forward to the rest of their time in the airport!

“I hope it doesn’t disappoint” she said as if this story with its canon callbacks and both of them losing their minds over each other and all the ways fate intervened to get them back together and kissing in the street and ending up back on a flight probably maybe about to try to join the mile high club wasnt just perfection

Stop

I kind of only want to read these types of stories from now on. You do it SO WELL. It’s ridiculous and fun without being too insane. It’s truly top tier comedy.

I want to read a thousand of these. You are SO GOOD at making them hilarious while not making them too over the top. You walk that line so well and it is honestly so hard to do. I am in awe. Next year can’t come soon enough.

Hi, you already know that I love this and why. But I would be so remiss if I didn’t come here and tell you again!

You just have such an incredible gift at making them sexy and fun but REAL and BELIEVABLE and how they’d act if they were together just the two of them. I love the connection they have to the band and how it means so much more than just a mutual appreciation of their music, but is a memory of a time when the music said what they couldn’t. Love love that line so much, by the way.

I also adore the way you make them crazy about each other because let’s be real, of course they would be! In the lavender haze of their relationship? (To borrow your borrowed words 😉) those kids would be non stop touching and enjoying and you write it so well. Especially the realistic touch of being fast and loose with protection. You’re so good at this. Write a million more.
