A collection of loosely-related moments (more like a bunch of one shots than a WIP. So jump in and out as you like.) Unapologetic smuff.‘That's kind of sweet.'
‘...which means it would be over in about three minutes.'
‘Never mind about that then,' she immediately retracts. ‘I'm fatherless.'
‘Great...uh, I mean...how sad.'
‘My mom will be happy to see you though,' she teases, still giggling.
‘Now you're talking. I am so there.'
EEEEXCELLENT - Simpsons <Michael> This was a little slice of heaven. I was missing these vignettes! So happy they are back and you've got something else up your sleeve. You have no idea how happy I was to read that!
'I'm fatherless' came to me at the last second...but it made me guffaw (do you ever amuse yourself just a little too much while writing? LOL.) So happy you noticed it!
I do have some more bits and pieces, but nothing coherent yet - never know when something will gel though. Meanwhile, I've got a more 'serious' fic cooking too, so doodling these little smuffers is kind of a nice break. Thanks so much LoveFool (ps: I actually thought of you a little while writing the banter in this chapter, cause you're so good at that.)
More "serious" fic huh? Oh man, I am equally as excited for that! And your p.s. about thinking about me during the banter...that's so nice of you to say. You're the awesomest of everything that is awesome! Again, can't wait for more.
Author's Response: Yeah, it's just a moody little S3 Jim pov one-shot, that's been festering since I wrote the Karen/Jim part of Snip. Hopefully, it will come together soon. Thanks for popping back in...looking forward to reading something (anything, lol) from you soon too ;-)
Jim gets some advice from a little seen source.
What a sweet premise for a story. And Jim is just so darling with her. Thanks for writing this!
Author's Response: Thank you so much for reading, LoveFool!
Two moments when Pam and Jim get together. Written in response to the 55 word challenge.
even in 55 words, you're genius.
Author's Response: Even in six words, you are too kind. Much apppreciated, LoveFool!
oooh that was GOOD! That lingerie was TRULY horrid.
Author's Response: haha - I'm so glad I am not alone in that assessment. And thanks for the review!!
Jim passes on the family tradition in 55 wordsLOVE IT!
Author's Response: Thanks!
“Quite an interesting collection you have here, Jim.”
Pam and Jim are learning all sorts of interesting things about each other.
A smattering of short(ish) scenes on the subject...
Oh my goodness....At least LTW has turned out to be good for us fanfic writers in terms of comedy, lol. Tickle His Pickle -- Good Lord is there really a book called that? I have to say I have been waiting for a fic to turn up with Pam having purchased a copy of the Kama Sutra after Diwali (with the way she was so intently perusing it in the episode). This was a lot of fun! More please!
Author's Response:
I know - it really IS the worst book title ever, and I cringed when JK used that phrase in the movie. I hope to god he did too. ;-)
Yes, I am SURE Pam bought a copy of the Kama Sutra after Diwali. And hopefully she'll get a chance to crack it open during S4. :-D
Thanks for reading and reviewing!
Pam reflects on the hazards of having a best friend as a boyfriend, who also happens to be her coworker and her costar. Spoilers up to The Job.This was excellent! What a great area to explore...the difficulty with being with your bestfriend. I love that all the things that were originally bad things, really turned out to be good things because we got to see how well he knew her. All except for that one where they were having a fight...which also just so poignantly delicious. Thanks for this!
Author's Response: Thanks! I thought it was important to include the fight scene, because all couples, even our seemingly perfect little Jim and Pam, have to fight.
"It's like Antarctica in there, Pam." Future, married Jim-and-Pam fluff-type stuff.This is perfection. I want you to continue this story! Perfect amount of fluff, perfect amount of smutt. NICELY done. And no need to worry about your characterizations. They were fabulous!
HILARIOUS
Author's Response: Thanks!
Talk about satisfied and smiling. Man, this was good! If I quoted every moment that I loved, I'd just have to copy and past the entire thing. But I have to say the idea of her pulling off her hair band and putting it on Jim's bangs, made me stop and just laugh for a moment. GREAT stuff.
Author's Response: Thanks, LoveFool! I thought that would be sort of a silly mental picture. :D
Author's Response: Also, I just read your Baby Talk series. I know I'm a little behind the times, but that was really adorable. Now I'll know to look out for more of your stories. Well done! :)
My first fanfic ever! Just a short story about Jim and Pam. A tiny bit of Pam and Roy.
It was actually written for office_ficathon at LJ but I finished early and wanted to get some feedback. If I get enough constructive criticism before it's due I'll revise it.
No real spoilers
LOVING Jim's music choices! hehe. This was totally cute!
Author's Response: Thanks so much! I always read (and love) your stories so that's awesome coming from you!
that totally made me smile....:;sigh:: if only.
Author's Response:
I know!! How many "if only" moments were there for Jim and Pam? Countless. At least there's now a date, and hopefully our Season 3 Non-Couple of Angst will be "just" a couple, providing laughs for us and pranks and foils for Dwight, Michael, and such. We hope, we hope, we hope.
Thanks so much for reviewing, LoveFool. I'm glad it made you smile!
Oh. My. God.
Keep it coming!
Jim and Pam's first date, using the constraints of the 55 word challenge.
Oh that was GREAT! TOTALLY getting favorited! I can't even tell you which vignette was my favorite because they all rocked my socks off! That side of burned feet line did make me laugh out loud though. GREAT STUFF.
Author's Response: Thanks. My first review in caps!
It's about damn time -- not only for Pam & Jim to go on a date, but for me to get in on this whole fanfic writing thing. I hear it's the next big thing. Lisahoo!!! Check you out! Your 55 word is the prettiest of all the 55 words!! <Roy> (is it ok to quote Roy?) lol. Good stuff here!
Author's Response: Thanks, LF. It's ok to quote Roy, just as long as it's Hoy!Roy.
A year or two before the cameras arrived, Michael takes the staff to the Poconos for a camaraderie event. Much unresolved sexual tension and angst ensues (uh, between Jim & Pam, not the entire staff).
oooooooooooh bring it Beesly! Great questions and it seems as if the gloves are coming off! Can't wait to read more.
Author's Response: Heh -- the gloves are coming off, indeed. :o) Thanks so much for reviewing!
While MTT was down for a brief time one night, I wrote a couple 55 word fics in the TWOP thread about Jim and Pam reading fanfic. I will likely continue this as a long running series, referencing my favorite stories and also newer stories as they come about.
Larry -- You do NOT need awesome lessons. Thank you very much!
ooooooh Moxie, you are a girl after my own heart. Can I send this into to NBC and beg and PLEAD for them to do this? lol. IF ONLY! Oh this is so good!I can't wait until they are fighting about stuff like this.
Author's Response: awww - thanks! And I hope we get to see something like this too - it's just begging to happen!!
The little things were threatening to drive him insane.... a few 55-word chapters on learning to live with the one you love.
awww....what a perfect ending! It's going to be so much fun getting to see what things annoy them about each otheer. Good, good fun!
Author's Response: yes - there is SOOOO much humor waiting to be written about the times they don't see eye to eye, don't you think?? Thanks for reviewing!
Short set of "When he/she..." Yay!
aww...how adorable was that! Poor,sweet Jim!
Author's Response: Thanks for the review! I'm glad you enjoyed it! Psst...if you have any ideas for a new scenario...lol.
ooh that bitch! I KNEW IT! lol
Author's Response: Wow, it so cool you reviewd. I lov your stuff and I've been reading your Baby Talk series all day :)
Love it! Totally fun and cute.
Author's Response: :) Thanks!
Some early morning fun with Jim and Pam.
You made me want to be Pam Beesly so badly in this story. This was great. Hot, sexy, and just delicious. Who needs to get to work on time???
A pool party and a shirtless Jim. Need I say more?
Another story in the series - Jim Halpert: More Than the Sum of His Parts
oh man, you are feeling prolific lately! And I'm LOVING IT. This was fun and sexy and just so them. The dialogue was beyond perfect. This is exactly how i would imagine them being at a pool party.
Author's Response:
What I wouldn't give for a pool party episode in s4, right? Our luck it would be held in January though.....
Thanks for reviewing!!
