love jim, love toby, love everything about this fic. their dialogue had that perfect mix of funniness on the surface and complete desperation below, and your characterization of their relationship made this feel right.

i have to admit--i'm loving this new jim slash trend you're on :)



Author's Response: Yay, thanks, yippee! Especially for your notes on the dialogue + characterization.  :)

hehe--i could totally hear pam saying this in my head. great pam voice :)

Loved the Pam POV--I thought the same thing in that discussion between her & Michael. Definitely one of my favorite deleted scenes--glad you wrote about it!

Is it wrong that I'm excited about the next chapter because I know this story is rated "M" and I love the way you write them together? I'm pretty sure it is.

In the meantime-loved this chapter. It was adorable and so very them. The conversation at the beginning was great, as was the initial uncertainty till they got comfortable around each other again.

And, as I've already said, can't wait for the next chapter :)

could totally see this as pam's thought process--through anger towards a realization that she needs to make the first move. can't wait to see what happens next :)

Author's Response: Thanks for your kind words.  I'm kind of overwhelmed that people have liked this so much.  Chapter 2 is  currently in progress...

Yowza, great mix of hot & angsty. I liked the context you give for Pam's actions--her curiosity about being with someone else and he thoughts about never having another "beginning" of a relationship and, of course, her complete denial of her desire being anything other than physical.

Really loved the end too.

Wow. All sorts of sweet, sexy hotness. Love the format that you used here with the little snippets of time--really kept up the momentum, and the whole thing was so in character. Just wonderful.

Loved this--it was just so much fun to read. Your characterizations seem spot-on (Andy, introducing Jim as B.T. Priceless!). Also loved the Jim/Karen and Jim/Pam interactions. Really excited to see how this progresses!

Hahaha...love this! It's providing much needed giggles on a stressful work day. So thanks!

Author's Response: Always glad to help with stress relief at work. Thanks!

Hee! This was adorable--love the little details of their family lives that come out and particularly love the last line :)

Author's Response: Thanks! I like coming up with ways to describe their lives without blatantly doing so. I'm loving writing these people!

Loved these-they work together really well and are all very Jim-ish. #2 and #5 were really sweet, #9 so sad, and #10 so realistic--there's always that point when you start moving on that you hate before it gets better.

This was lovely--I could practically hear them saying the words in my head. Particularly loved the last bit when Pam calls Jim out on not being sorry.

Author's Response: Thanks!  She had to call him out.  :)

This was so beautiful...so so so many lovely moments in here that I can't even begin to start listing them, becuase by the end I would have listed the entire story.

Really enjoyed the order than you used here--kept things really interesting throughout. Particularly loved your words to describe Jim's thoughts at the beginning and so many other little things--Michael knowing who Pam really misses, the memory archeology, both of their lingering uncertainty at the beginning, and Pam's "okay" at the end--all so wonderful and true.

Please don't hesitate to post something this good again :)

Author's Response:

Wow - this is the kind of review that makes a girl want to keep writing! Glad to hear the slightly inverted order was effective - somehow it just seemed right to do it that way. Thanks so much for all your feedback.
