Bio:
I'm 22 year old, substitute teacher in Louisiana, who's watched The Office obsessively since the middle of the third season. The friendship between Jim and Pam has always been one of my favorite parts and after discovering fanfic a few monts ago, I decided to sign up and share some of my ideas. Hope you enjoy!

Daddy's Home by LoveFool Rated: K [Reviews - 14] 9
Summary: Anytime I've written babyfic, Jim is typically a natural at fatherhood and has no problem adjusting to daddyhood at all.  I thought it'd be fun to explore...the opposite of that.

Poor Jim. This story seems real to me, because I was that baby. For the first six months of my life, they tell me I would cry if any one outside of my Mom or Grandma picked me up. Even my Dad had to wait an hour after he got home from work, or I would just sob. But I did grow out of it, so there's hope for Jim.

Loved the banter, you have a such a gift for writing the awkward moments and verbal fumblings that are part of every relationship :)

You have a great talent for putting a lot of emotion into few words. Most of these brought back the heart tugging angst of season 3, and reminded me how close we came to most of these scenerios at some point. The thought of Angela as a senior citizen (but still with her cross and secret meetings with Dwight) made me laugh, but all of them were beautiful.

My favorite however is "not their turn" where their children meet. I could easily imagine Pam's smile and laugh, instantly stealing the heart of another Halpert.

I'd love to see another loose end tied up, no pressure though:) Not to parrot the other reviews, btu I'm glad you used Karens point of view and showed that she's really a great person.

Glad you decided to post this!

Yeah for quick updates that are almsot better then the first chapter! Again, it's nice that you showed that Roy and Pam just didn't make a good couple anymore, but they still had some good memories. It's cool Roy wants a family (such a great way to end a story) Maybe he and Lisa could run into Jim and Pam in another couple of years? I mean they live in the same town and all. For another Loose End chapter, how about Katy? or Mark? He just kind of dropped off the show after season 2. But if Jim had roomed with him for 5-7 years before, they would have to be pretty close friends and he'd have probably heard a lot of Pam drama. Not a romantic loose end, but something I'd enjoy seeing.

Keep your S2 thing going! Conflicted romance is so much fun to read, and no couple has more of that then JAM.

You did a great job capturing their emotions and the nuances of their actions, loved when Jim is trying to think "brotherly feelings" :)

This was incredible through and through, I truly thought it was Jim and Pam's baby at the beginning. Then I was glad it wasn't, because seeing them together so many years later, still so much in love was just beautiful.

Author's Response: I'm glad the beginning part worked for you Casinos and Coal Walks. I think Jim and Pam are in it for the long haul. Appreciate the review - thanks.

"It scared him how much he loved her, how each day that they didn’t talk felt like the worst day of his life over and over again." Wow, that was getting intense, but it is such a great line, one of the best I've read.

Looking at them now it's easy to forget the three years of anguish we fans went through. Even though I mostly read fluff I love a good angst piece, one that brings back the memories,gives you a twinge of sadness and makes you glad that we are seeing a lot less tears where Jam is concerned. This is one of those pieces.

Author's Response: Thanks, so much! I just started writing fanfic, and I found it incredibly fulfiling to write angst. So even though they're together now, I like bringing back the heartbreak for all of us from when they werent!
