Oh I'm always here for a good idiot Roy. And this is prime: ignoring and unaware in spades.

Author's Response: Oh Yeah Totally. Roy was super ignorant. It's really interesting that not only them, but the people with them don't realize it too.

Date: July 13, 2021 Title: Chapter 3: Chapter 3 Not Roy

I don't think there's not enough going on; it's just going on inside her head. I do hope she can get some things straightened out for herself!

Author's Response: Thank you. I am trying to keep it Canon compliant. So when she said she called off her wedding few days ago, I want to bring her to that point which breaks the camel's back. 

Summary:

'His mother would probably scold him with how often he tends to eavesdrop, but that doesn’t stop him from doing it anyway. He had to be observant in order to survive his two older brothers and the trait followed him to adulthood. Plus, if he was honest, he liked being able to find things out about strangers he would likely never see again. Learning secrets, finding out information, listening to arguments. There was nothing he could do with the stuff he heard, but he enjoyed knowing that the people surrounding him had their own lives just like he did.'

Well you weren't kidding about angst! But honestly--fuck Roy here, so it's for the best she's got a clean break.

Author's Response: I never kid about angst, also yah, Roy is the WORST!

I'm glad she isn't hiding it away; that's an important mental step for her. Nice chapter.

Author's Response: thank you!

Dwight making an appearance feels appropriate to this fic, btw: with Pam missing/being late and then with whether she's pregnant. But I'm glad so far we're getting so much of just the two of them. Nice character beats.

Author's Response: Dwight will make an appearance soon, but for this chapter I really wanted to focus on them. I'm glad you enjoyed this chapter!

Ouch. I really like how you turned this into an increase in love, because of how it makes all of S3 that much angstier.

Poor Jim. Of course, I'm assuming that he'll still do all of S3 here...but this is very sweet.

This was an interesting take on this kind of moment. I feel like there could be a lot of little inflection points like this in their relationship, and this was really well done.

Summary:


 

 

Canon-divergent, lyrics inspired, plot-bunny directed, get Jim back to Scranton fic set in early season 3 where Michael makes a yearbook, Pam makes a phone call, and Jim makes a decision.

Ooh I like this. I think you did a good job foreshadowing the dream element and I'm intrigued where this goes differently!

Author's Response:

Thanks Comfect. Glad you liked it. I think you will be somewhat surprised although it will still include some of the familiar too. 

Hope it continues to intrigue.

Ooh awkward! But a very good kind of awkward. Interested to know where this goes from there!

Thanks very much! And haha, Jim and Pam are my favourite kind of awkward. Thanks so much for reading and reviewing!

Date: August 05, 2021 Title: Chapter 2: Temptation, the very thing that held her back

Oh man I love this peek into Pam's head. It's just very realistic I think within the alternate universe to have her thinking this way and to have her having had these thoughts before. I love it!

Author's Response: Thanks so much! And yeah, I was struggling a bit to get the balance right here between her having those thoughts, but also being comfortable being his friend now - so I'm really glad you thought that worked! Thanks for the review :)

Reviewer: Comfect Signed 1
Date: August 23, 2021 Title: Chapter 3: That kind of talk only adds intrigue to the cauldron of thought

Oh no Danny. But I think what you're doing with him and with the fictional semi-gf works for this fic.

Author's Response:

Thanks very much! And yes lol sorry for the Danny…but he is definitely just part of the journey. Thanks for reading!

Oooooh. Jim is pissy for the right reasons. Love it.

Author's Response:

Haha, Jim pissy on Pam’s behalf is a Jim I love. Thanks so much! 

Summary: Feature

"There was a definite conflict within him: between the Jim who loved having Pam for a best friend and the Jim who wanted to press her up against the door of his apartment and kiss every single platonic thought out of her brain."

An AU loosely based on the film “When Harry Met Sally.”

Love the use of Office canon here. Just great.

Author's Response: Thanks so much! Glad you’re enjoying!

Summary:

NOW COMPLETE! and featuring bonus content - enhanced reader notes. BUT DO NOT READ ANY OF THESE CHAPTER/END NOTES ON STEROIDS UNTIL YOU FINISH READING THE ENTIRE FIC - MAJOR SPOILERS ALERT. 

The Office meets Harry Potter. - Sort of, but not exactly, and you don't need to be a fan or really know any HP to follow this fic.

You should enjoy stories about time travel and the magic of love.

Michael discovers a Time Turner and takes Pam on a time-traveling adventure. 

Takes place after The Carpet in season 2 with attempts to be canon-compliant as much as possible for as long as possible considering it is a story that involves the supernatural. But with time travel possible, canon winds up taking some small shifts and even sharp turns.

Definitely here for this: currently teaching HP and love the concept you have introduced. Wonder who will travel? And if we'll get the kind of near-misses we get in HP? Love the setup!

Author's Response:

Thank you - it has been a fun and challenging write so far.

teaching HP? That sounds interesting - your students must love your class. What level?

Stay tuned to see.

 Thanks Again.
