You should do a sequel to this story where Pam
finds out about the conversation between Jim and Roy. Because if I were Pam, I would be seriously pissed off. Let’s face it, there are some things that should remain private between two people.
So yes, both men are idiots here, especially Jim.

Wow, I can really see and feel Pam’s pain
here.
Jim definitelywas an ass in season three, and nine.
Both of those seasons showed a very unattractive, and even narcissistic, side to Jim’s personality.
Also it really annoyed me how Jim’s treatment
of Pam was never really addressed in season three. The writers made it seem that just because JAM were finally together in season four, Jim’s horrible treatment of Pam simply disappeared.
In both seasons Jim had the attitude of thinking he was entitled to treat Pam like trash because she didn’t give into what he wanted. Also Jim had the tendency of looking down on Pam and acting like she would be nowhere without him. So it’s no wonder Pam felt that she wasn’t enough for Jim, it was because he treated her as such. Actions really do speak louder than words when it comes to love.
So it’s no wonder Pam’s feelings in those seasons were that Jim didn’t think she was enough for him, and perhaps, even unwanted.

Summary:

“He wants to get over Pam. He wants to, badly. The only thing he wants more is to be with her, and that isn’t going to happen.”

My (canon-compliant) take on Pam and Jim's journey through Season 3, beginning with "The Merger." Includes flashbacks.

I love how Pam mad the sea serpent look like
Karen. 😂
Jim wanted Pam to make a move to him about her feelings, but ignores the fact that he has given her plenty of reasons to think that he doesn’t care about her anymore. I think that shows how Jim didn’t handle things very well in season 3.

Author's Response:

You're right that Jim's behavior in S3 isn't great, particularly near the end, but I have a great deal of sympathy for him. He was rejected twice (three times if you consider Pam's lack of contact after breaking things off with Roy) so regardless of his persisting feelings for her, I genuinely believe a lot of his behavior was out of self-protection.

Thanks for reading and reviewing!

Date: March 03, 2022 Title: Chapter 3: "There's such a thing as good grief. Just ask Charlie Brown."

Jim treating Pam like trash, while acting as
if he’s so sweet and innocent is the main reason why I couldn’t stand him in season three(and nine).
Jim is the one who started the problem with Pam in the first place. I can’t say I blame Karen’s parents for not being happy about their daughter moving to another state for a guy she hardly knows.
Typical Michael making everything about himself.
Even though Pam is grieving for her friendship with Jim, that grief can help her move on, and become indifferent to Jim and Karen’s relationship. 🤔
Pam doesn’t need someone in her life that will treat her like someone less than worthy. That’s what Roy did.

Reviewer: New Hogfan Signed
Date: March 11, 2022 Title: Chapter 5: "Secret secrets are no fun. Secret secrets hurt someone."

Jim is such an ass, and he can’t even see it because he’s too busy playing the poor me card.
Karen is a sad woman. Chasing after a guy who she knows really doesn’t want her, like a teenager with a crush. She took a risk of letting herself get hurt.
I have no sympathy for Karen when it blows up in her face.
Pam has every right to be hurt and angry at Jim.
By saying it was just a kiss to Karen made seem as though Jim only told Pam he loved her to get in her pants. If Pam were to start giving Jim the cold shoulder it would be understandable.

Date: March 15, 2022 Title: Chapter 6: "I hope that someone gets my message in a bottle"

Jim is really getting on my nerves.
He uses Karen as a buffer between Pam and himself,
but he can’t see that Pam is doing the same thing with Roy because of Jim. 🤦r05;a92;a039;
Jim can’t see that he’s the one pushing Pam towards Roy because he’s too busy thinking about his own hurt feelings, and treating Pam like trash.
I can understand why Roy would want an explanation for Pam breaking up with him right before their wedding. However, I can see why Pam wasn’t completely honest with Roy considering how crazy he can get, and especially since Jim was gone to her.
In many ways Jim is no better than Roy. Both guys are very selfish, juvenile and makes their relationship with Pam all about themselves. At this point in the season Pam (and even Karen) should have told Jim to F off.

Date: March 21, 2022 Title: Chapter 7: "I have no future here."

The attack scene was well written. It was like
it was happening in slow motion. Jim can be cruel,
but at least he had the decency to apologize.
Plus,I have to give him credit for admitting that
he deserved to get punched by Roy.
Unfortunately, Pam didn’t speak up for herself
and was honest about the real reason she
got back with Roy, because it was Jim’s fault.
Karen is predictable and territorial.
She is Jim’s Roy. Except with violence, Karen uses
words.

Reviewer: New Hogfan Signed
Date: March 26, 2022 Title: Chapter 8: "All it really means is that we're friends."

Jim is really trying to hard to be in a
relationship with Karen(and her with Jim).
They simply aren’t compatible. So even if there
was no Pam, they aren’t right for each other.
Their complete lack of chemistry is a big sign of that.
So like I said before, Karen is Jim’s own Roy.
Pam’s mom is right in that Pam should tell Jim how she truly feels, and if he doesn’t reciprocate,
which we know he will, at least Pam will know the truth, instead of wondering about what could have been. That way Pam would also be able to move on.

Reviewer: New Hogfan Signed
Date: April 02, 2022 Title: Chapter 9: "You've got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em"

Karen really is a sad and desperate woman.
She should really cut her losses.
Yes, Jim is leading on both women by
talking out of both sides of his mouth,
but Karen still completely ignoring the giant
red flags waving in her face! 🚩
It drives me crazy that Pam puts all the blame
on herself, and allowing Jim to do the same,
while letting Jim off the hook when comes to their
relationship problems. 😡
At least the others felt guilty about missing the art show.

Author's Response: It appears you have a very aggressive opinion of Jim (which is okay! your opinion is valid!) but I'm not sure your characterization of him in this chapter is very accurate... he felt badly about missing the art show, and also apologized/ took accountability for his own actions multiple times here. Appreciate the review :)

Reviewer: New Hogfan Signed 1
Date: April 02, 2022 Title: Chapter 10: "What is love anyway? Maybe it's supposed to break all the rules."

Even though we know where this going,
seeing Jim’s mind going through all the
realizations of what he really wants, was intense.
I hope we get to see him end things with Karen,
and her reaction.
I have to say I liked how Jim also thought to himself
about wanting not sliver. That showed how even though JAM wasn’t always the best at communicating, they are still in the same wavelength.

Reviewer: New Hogfan Signed 1
Date: April 07, 2022 Title: Chapter 11: "A real relationship can't be forced. It should just come about effortless...ledly."

Karen definitely should have listened to Monika.
Monika really hit the nail on the head with not just Karen’s relationship with Jim, but also with Karen
herself. The red flags were there the whole time and Karen choose to ignore them. She was right in that Jim was a different person in Stamford than he was in Scranton, which is what I’ve been saying for a while.
Karen fell for the guy who she THOUGHT Jim was,
and Pam wanted Scranton Jim. In other words,
the real Jim. In the end that’s who won out.
Karen should have known that she couldn’t suppress the real Jim for too long because he kept coming out like when he found the glasses to prank Dwight.
Also Karen’s annoyance with Jim’s pranks also showed how they really didn’t have that much in common, or chemistry. It was interesting to see things from Karen’s POV, but also showed that she actually wasn’t as confident as she tried to appear.
Yes she was good at her job, but as a woman deep
down she was insecure. I do think that she has every right to be angry at Jim because he did lie to her,
and was leading her on to think they could possibly have a future. At least Karen seems to have
a happy ending to with the doctor, because the camera guy was right in that Karen should be with a guy that chases after her.

After all the angst this story had it’s nice
to see them have a peaceful ending.
It was kind of funny seeing how the doc crew was scrambling to find out what was going on in
New York.

Author's Response: Thanks for reading, glad you enjoyed!

Jim’s attitude in this story is an example of why I wasn’t a fan of him in season three.
He’s playing the poor me card while ignoring the fact that he started the problem with Pam in the first place. Even though Pam was my favorite character,
it drove me nuts how she would let the men in her life treat her like trash.

This is a very good start to a new fic.
Plus I like the marketing business concept of
the story. I sense some competition between the
two companies and JAM. 🤔
I like how you’ve made Pam more confident and doing a job that she actually loves. We didn’t get that enough in canon. You definitely got the nail on the head with Kelly and Ryan’s relationship.
Also not to mention Karen’s desperation at wanting something real to happen with Jim. So sad.
Please update soon. I’m very curious as to where this going to go. I also like the pictures you have used for Jim/Pam. 🙂

Author's Response:

Thank you so much for your review!!

I'm glad you like this version of Pam. I wanted just a hint of her uncertainty and things that hold her back in this, but not toooo much!

Yeah, I really dislike Karen, so she's never going to come off well in one of my fics!!

Glad you like the pics, I AGONISED over finding the perfect ones for this fic. There will be a lot more to follow too!

I shall update as soon as I can! This story has been a long time in the making! 

Reviewer: New Hogfan Signed 1
Date: April 24, 2022 Title: Chapter 2: The Pitch

I like that there is already a connection between
JAM on their first meeting. Karen is just sad.
She can’t see that Jim is completely indifferent to her. I’m surprised that Karen didn’t try to pee a circle around Jim to mark him as her territory.
I definitely got Creed down right, and even Kevin.
Will there by chance be a collaboration between
Jim and Pam’s companies to win Creed’s account?
🤔 I like how you updated quickly, so please do it again.

Author's Response:

I love how much you hate Karen, I feel EXACTLY the same. Unfortunately this might not be the last we've seen of her

I'm hoping to get a chapter a week out, so hopefully the story should move quite quickly. I just have to hope real life doesn't get in the way too much!!

Thanks so much for the review!

Date: April 28, 2022 Title: Chapter 3: The Date

Well first date on ice is much better than what Roy
went for. I mean who brings their brother on a first date? 🤦r05;a92;a039;
Kelly makes me SMH.I think she’s a little jealous
That Jim wasn’t interested n her, and that deep
down she had to trap Ryan into being with her.
I think Kelly is going to end up raising her baby alone.
After seeing how Jim knows Matt Damon and can can private time at MSG, I think that Karen likes him for the wrong reasons. Cathy seems just as crazy in this story as she did in canon.

Author's Response:

Yes exactly! No one wants a brother there, especially Kenny! 🙈

Jim definitely has an exciting life, you can see why the ladies like him

Thanks for the review!

Very sexy update. 😍
I also have to wonder if the expired condom
date will lead to pregnancy number three at
Ordinary Things. 🤔
Once again I like the pictures you included at the end of the chapter. I also love how often you are giving
us new chapters, so please keep it up.

Author's Response:

Maybe 😬😬

Lots more pictures to come don’t worry! 

Next chapter is potentially quite long or might be split into two, but I’ll have it up ASAP as possible. Twss.

Date: May 15, 2022 Title: Chapter 6: The First Month Part Two

Jim is already falling for her!
It was probably a good idea that he didn’t say so
out loud because he wouldn’t scare Pam away.
You hit the nail on the head with Roy.
He did act like a had a chip on his shoulder,
even in canon. He was never supportive of Pam’s art.
Danny sounds like a textbook narcissist. Pam really
dodged a bullet with that one. Given her bad experiences with men, I can understand why she’s
in disbelief that she found a guy who truly wants the best for her. Will Jim and Pam end up working together on Creed’s account?
I’m curious about Jim’s little stuffed animal. Does he have his own bad relationship issues? The jealousy Cathy had in the last chapter is pretty obvious. I have a feeling the crazy will eventually come to the surface. For coming off as an airhead, Kelly can be very insightful. I’m dying to see Karen’s reaction to the JAM relationship! Please update soon!

Author's Response:

He is! We know canon Jim fell pretty hard and fast, and this Jim is no different!

You'll never find any love for Roy in my fics!! Or Karen for that matter, and don't worry, we'll be seeing here again soon!

And Penny will be making more appearances, don't you worry :)

Next update is on the way!

Okay so Cathy is creepy. Does actually she think that Jim would want to see her in the bra and panties?
I am now dying to know what Karen did to Jim/Katie!
Just like Jim I’m also surprised that his dad hugged him. Jim’s dad came off at being cold and distant towards Jim, which I think adds another layer
to Jim’s personality, and depth. Pam’s mom is annoying.
Pam is right that her mom is projecting her hate towards Pam’s dad onto Jim. I love the ring Jim got for Pam. I hope that Cathy doesn’t get her hands on it.

Author's Response:

Yeah I think Cathy is generally crazy in every universe 🤣

All will be revealed with Karen and Katy soon, don’t you worry!

Glad you liked the ring! I think Jim’s gonna be pretty protective of that one! 

Reviewer: New Hogfan Signed
Date: May 27, 2022 Title: Chapter 8: The First Month Part Four

TBH I actually can’t (completely) be mad at
Karen for trashing Jim’s relationship with Katy because that freed him up to be with Pam.
Pam should send Karen a thank you card 😂
I do think Jim was being naive by hanging out with Karen because it allowed Karen to fake a relationship with him. The office sex was hot. However, I’m a little disappointed that Pam isn’t willing to do it in her own office. I would love to see JAM get caught by Cathy
and her absolute jealousy. 😈

Author's Response:

I guess there always was a reason for Karen, she made JAM getting together even sweeter!

Absolutely, Jim was naive hete, but we know season 3 Jim was a bit of a tool. He’s back to his normal wonderful self though, so no need to worry!

Pam had a glass office 🤣🤣 might be a little tricky for them to do it there!! Don’t worry, Cathy will still be storing up lots of trouble for our favourite couple.

Thanks as always for the review!

Date: June 03, 2022 Title: Chapter 9: The First Month Part Five

It’s nice to see that Jim is comfortable in his relationship with Pam to let her see the silly prank
side of his personality. I do think Karen is a bit delusional to think that she has something real going on with Jim, even if she’s thinking it’s an on/off thing.
It’s kind of like how Kelly was with Ryan.
I am surprised though that Karen didn’t cause any drama when Pam told her that she is actually Jim’s girlfriend, and that Karen wasn’t invited to Jim’s party. I have to say that you do have my attention when you said that Pam’s boobs were bigger right now. 🤔 please update soon!

Author's Response:

Yup Karen is definitely delusional, but I always thought she was in canon to think she could force the relationship to work. Very Kelly and Ryan you’re right!

I didn’t want any drama ruining this night, and in canon Karen didn’t cause any drama when Pam finally let her feelings out. But that doesn’t mean there won’t be some coming :)

There will definitely be an update, and I’m sure Pam’s boobs will feature too 🤣

Cathy is a complete psycho!
Karen(and Kelly)is just sad and desperate.
However, it does seem that Jim isn’t blind to what Cathy is trying to do. He probably has had other women throw themselves at him.
Angela is a good match for Dwight because
they are both socially awkward.
I’m getting the feeling that yes there will be another Ordinary Things baby. Please update soon!

Author's Response:

Yup Cathy is crazy and Jim can deffo see something is going on, just like in canon! Eugh that woman!

Date: July 14, 2022 Title: Chapter 13: The Second First Month Part One

These last two chapters were really great, and funny.
It’s nice to see Jim so excited about being a dad so early into their relationship. Most men would be
freaking out like Ryan is. Then again unlike Kelly,
Pam didn’t get pregnant to trap Jim.
However, it would not surprise if some people
accuse Pam of doing that very thing, like Jim’s dad.
I like how Jim and Pam tried to work things out about Jim being gone for those months.
Kelly is driving me crazy. I don’t know how Pam puts up with her. Just getting a break from Kelly would be enough for me to what to leave with Jim for months, if I were Pam. Pam teasing Jim about being called daddy reminds me of Ross and Phoebe on Friends.
I admit that I am curious about what’s coming up with Cathy and Karen because they’ve been pretty quiet lately.

Author's Response:

Ah thank you so much!

Yes Jim is definitely looking forward to this baby! I think it helps that he's so besotted with Pam, whereas Ryan, not so much with Kelly. We'll see what Jim's dad has to say soon about this, don't you worry! 

Lots more to come about their impending move as well! And more with Cathy and Karen as well!

I knew it!
I had a feeling that Pam got pregnant that
first night after their conversation about the
condom. I would definitely not trust Kelly to keep her mouth shut about Pam’s pregnancy.
Those doctors are nuts, and Robert California is down right creepy. How does he keep his medical
license with all the sexual harassment he does?
Cathy needs to be fired.

Author's Response:

Yes, it was that expired condom alright!

Cathy really does need to be fired, but unfortunately not just yet!

Little kid lover! 😂
That really is such a Michael thing to say.
Of course Michael doesn’t even realize how it
sounds to people. The disturbing thing is that
he’s the most normal doctor there. 😬
Could Cathy be any more obvious with her jealousy and desperation? I agree with Pam about just googling questions about sex during pregnancy.

Author's Response:

Hahaha he really is! Who would have thought that??

More to come from Cathy, don't worry :)
