Beyond the Horizon by agian18 Rated: M [Reviews - 45] 37
Summary:

When the secrets of one employee cost the others twelve hours of peril, locked in the office under a hostage situation, true colors begin to shine through. 

Essentially taking the General Hospital Metro Court hostage crisis from 2007 and pretending it happened in The Office, so if you've seen it, some plot lines will probably give you nostalgia... :)

Well this was very cute. I'm glad you finished it and thanks for letting us read it. Feel free to give us more soap opera JAM in the future if you feel like it ;)

Yay, AG is back! I'm glad this story has caught up to its in media res start, and I'm excited for the end. Nice work making this material JAMmy.

Loving the Dwangela. Really like Meredith knowing the guy who came through the ceiling (don't care if that's from the original plotline, it fits with the Meredith we know and vaguely tolerate). And you do a very good job as always with the JAM emotions. So, nicely done even though it's all remarkably over the top for this show. It's still true to the emotional core, which is quite impressive.

Well, this is quite nice. I mean, not actually. This is really awful for pretty much every character except maybe Dwangela considered as a unit. But otherwise...it's nice to have you updating, and it is a good update to get the plot moving.

Ugh, this is tense. By which I mean you're doing a good job, but soap opera plotlines are just very hard on the nerves.

Author's Response: They truly are. One of the reasons I stopped watching (that, and bad acting...). But thank you!

Plot movement! Aggressive, sudden plot movement! I kid, but this was an interesting move forward.

Definitely keep going. I don't know your source material, but it sounds interesting and I'm along for the ride.

But really, 3 WIP again? ;)

I don't think the argument is OOC for later-season Jim/Pam, so there's no reason (except my poor heart!) it should be inherently OOC earlier. They had a lot to work through, and we know Jim has a weird aggressive tendency to assume things about Pam moving in with him (see: buying a dang house) so this seems sad but reasonable.

All That Time I Was Just Waiting by With_An_E Rated: T [Reviews - 11] 8
Summary:

An Office Prequel from Jim's perspective (at least mostly). 

James Halpert starts his first day at Dunder-Mifflin just to earn a paycheck. Little does he know that accepting a job as a paper salesman would change his life more than he ever thought possible.

And has he looked at her ring finger yet? I'm curious if your Pam is wearing it and he doesn't notice or doesn't have one (which is a common theme on this archive, usually of the Roy-is-cheap variety). Nice prank, and good buildup to it.

Author's Response:

Hmmmmmmmm the answer to that shall come very very soon! 

 

Thanks for reading, Comfect!

Oh, this is good. I think you're hitting the right notes with lovesick college students (at least, the ones I've taught seem much like this). I eagerly await more.

Well I'm glad I waited to come check the archive because now I don't have to wait out the cliffhanger you put in here. Seriously, damn.

But asshole Ryan is correct Ryan in my book, so I'm here for it. Nice work!

Author's Response: Ha! You made the right call for sure, my update took longer than I meant for it to! And yes, the only Ryan is asshole Ryan. If I need a villain, it's usually always going to be Ryan!

But is she SURE there's no code there?

But seriously, this was a lovely parallel to the earlier material and just a perfect bookend. Thanks for the lovely story, and for finishing it so wonderfully!

Oh sweet. A date indeed! Hospital food and ice chips.

Well explained and motivated. Looking forward to the postlude.

Author's Response: Not the best first date ever, but definitely not the worst! I like to think that in this AU, Roy still left her at a hockey game on their first date, lol!

Oh no. Oh oh no. I mean, I did guess partway through the chapter but... Yeah, nice setup. Very interested to see where we go from here.

Author's Response: I’m interested too! I mean I have an outline but as I’m sure you well know, sometimes things get away from you. I’m working on the next chapter, can’t wait to hear what you think!

Oooh! Loving the characters you're bringing in and the moments (seriously, I can't?). It's great. It's all great.

Author's Response: Thanks so much! Phyllis as a kindly nurse felt right, haha. I’m glad it didn’t seem like a stretch! And ofc Jim wouldn’t turn Pam down, so I tried to think of the best way to use her “I can’t” line. I’m so glad you liked it! Thanks for reviewing!

Wow. I get that you were in a funk but you wouldn't be able to tell from the story. Nice twist, very believable adrenaline rush, and good emotional beats. Yay!

Author's Response: Thank you so much Comfect! I’m glad it flowed well and that you enjoyed it. I always appreciate you reading and reviewing!

Don't even joke about leaving that s long cliffhanger! But seriously I love that this is Jim's family place not a government one and I'm intrigued by a week of isolation. Should be fun for them both, injury aside.

Author's Response: I know, I know, it was a mean joke. I promise I’m not abandoning this story again! I’ll see it finished. I have some fun things planned and some maybe not so fun things planned...I can’t wait to hear what you think!

This was well done. And don't worry about being unproductive; this is a weird time in the world. We're delighted with whatever you end up having time and concentration for.

Author's Response: Thank you, Comfect! Finally sitting down and finishing up a chapter did help to get me back in the groove. I hope to update again soon!

Daaang. I like this a lot, from the period piece element to the characterization to the fact that you've already ditched Roy. But I think I'm legally required to ask you the same question I asked AG: 3 WIPs, really? ;)

Author's Response: I know, I know! I just couldn’t help it. But I’m glad you like it so far! I’m enjoying writing it for sure. Thanks for reading!

Way to bring us back into the story with a bang (sorry, I couldn't resist)! It's great to have you back. I remember liking this story a lot, and this chapter, while quick, does a good job of getting us right back into it. I'm excited to see where you might go with it from here. Yay BT!

Author's Response: Comfect! I have truly missed you and everyone else. I am so glad to see so many familiar names. Thank you so much for sticking with me and encouraging me! You're the best!

Awwwww. So sweet and yet I think what you did with setting up this Jim's backstory was really strong. It gives us an idea of why he'd do this kind of work, but also that doing it isn't actually his passion but his distraction. Which means that when he finds something new, like, say, Pam, he is still open to it. Good writing!

Author's Response: That means so much coming from you, Comfect! Thank you so much!

So this is what you were building towards. Well earned and justified in story and well done.

Author's Response: Thank you! I thought about delaying it until other things in the story play out but I actually think it fits in nicely with plot points I have planned (that’s a lot of P’s, haha) so I am glad to hear that it makes sense in the story!

So that was a very nice opposite of social distancing. Although I suppose you're allowed to do that with the people you're isolated WITH. Nicely done.

Author's Response: Who needs social distancing when you’ve got a tiny shower and Jim Halpert? 😉
