Title: Chapter 15: Casino Night
Lovely way to combine two episodes. Jim being a little despondent without Pam in the office makes sense. He's without his office buddy and fiancé so yeah it makes sense he'd be a little down.
Nice to see Pam doing well in New York. Also nice to see her wanting to leave quickly to get back to Jim.
The surprise welcome back was all sorts of sweet. Same with their afternoon off at home.
I like the change from sweater to tux this time around. Felt very classy.
Nice to have Casino Night go in a good direction this time too. Nice job as always.
Author's Response:
Yes, Jim is very much missing his best friend/partner in crime/life partner/fiance/... the list goes on! I'm happy to hear you liked this mashup, I felt like I should at least acknowledge Conflict Resolution happened so... there it was!
Pam can only distract herself with New York for so long, understandably. She's having a good time and being challenged, but the person she want's to share with is just over two hours away!
I'm glad you liked that unabashed fluff, I enjoyed writing that. It was fun to play with Ryan a little bit before he became the jerk that he was in later episodes too.
Jim is all about classy, as we may recall from the time he wore a tux in canon. I'm glad that fit for you, I just felt like it was a natural progression. This is Jim and Pam's outing in the middle of wedding planning/saving, so they went a little over the top.
Thank you for your kind words as always! We're almost at the end of this one.
