Summer picnics, maps, rain...things change year to year. (No spoilers.)Haha...maybe this is the best "picnic"ever. I loved Jim's nautical terms...too funny.
Author's Response: Who knew he was so into sailing? Glad you liked this, flamingosinparadise, and thanks!
This is a transcript of The Newlywed Show, taped in December 2009.I love this story. My favorites:
- Jim's line about Michael needing clarification
-How in sync Pam & Jim are
- Angela admitting to beet field sex
-Jim & Pam having roof sex (that needed to happen at some point).
Looking forward to the next chapter!
Oh my goodness...this story made me laugh more than any other story has in a really long time. My favorite parts:
1) Jim's "the roof counts"
2) Jim debating over hours or years
3) The BVVR commercial
4) Kelly finding out that Ryan falls asleep while she talks
5) Kelly getting mad at Ryan for making everyone think she's a whore
Ok, I am stopping myself there because I would keep going on and on forever otherwise. Can't wait to read more!!
Hahaha...this has just been all kinds of awesome. I love that Michael wanted Jim & Pam to have hot tub parties and that Jim & Pam won and that Pam realizes her wishes are coming true. Wonderful story and very entertaining.
10 Wow. Youhave completely convinced me that Jim & Pam still work after the will they/won't they is gone (actually I didn't really need convincing but I don't know how anyone could read this and not be totally sure it would work). Absolutely adorable. I loved every little story.
Author's Response: It will work! It will work! We just have to keep telling ourselves that.
5 times Pam shook Jim Halpert up. And it's about damn time.
No spoilers in sight. Nothing but some fluff as sweet as candy floss....
I love that Pam had the guts to leave the book (and sign love!) and write something from the heart. Very nice.
Wow...I am amazed at Pam. That is some incredible party-planning skills being put to work there. I love that she showed him how much she remembers what he says. Wonderful.
Haha...sneaking Pam (I do believe her...mostly). And very Michael to not allow them to leave when there's no power.
Wow...FNB is sure showing up in full force. I loved Jim's line about the only hard part being himself. Haha...that was a good one. And I liked "Sing" showing up again.
I like that they don't have a perfect relationship and that Karen & Roy are still painful subjects for them. Very true to real life. And Jim saying Pam won't be able to get rid of him...sigh...very nice.
After a fire destroys her apartment, Pam moves in with Jim and Karen. Everyone has to find out how they define "friendship". Not for those who prefer their Jim to be wholesome.
Hmmm....interesting...I saw this rec'd on TWoP this afternoon and from comments there...I am guessing Jim's not going to be able to resist Pam's "innocent" voice for long...looking forward to that...
Wow...that didn't take long at all...interesting...
(that's a good thing)
Good golly...way to change it up a little...totally not expecting that this had happened before with them...can't wait to read it.
Hahaha...oh wow. That was awesome. Now please say we will get some Cupcake post meeting with Maximus...because that would just compound this awesomeness...
I love that Jim was freaked out by the 6 months thing...especially with Pam right there. And complimenting Pam in front of Karen...bold move (is bold the right word?)
Haha...mentioning "kinky sex" in that elevator won't make things more uncomfortable at all. I love Pam wondering about the Fast Forward/Too Awkward button.
Love that even with Karen having her bag and hinting to Jim about it...all he can still think about Pam. Poor man has a (mostly) one track mind.
Haha...love the weather talk...very very true when in awkwardsituations.
Kelly, Pam, and Karen find different meanings in a romantic comedy. Takes place sometime after Women's Appreciation (season three). Spoilers for the movie "My Best Friend's Wedding"
Wow...way to tie in the movie. I was getting a little scared there when Pam was first talking but then she made up for it. Yay! for Karen being Julia Roberts!
Author's Response: Thanks- I was struck by the parallel. Glad you enjoyed!
A post-Beach Games fic. Some glimpses of what might've happened after the cameras stopped rolling (not that enough didn't happen while they were rolling...).
Spoilers through Beach Games.
9 I LOVE that Jim was proud of Pam and wanted to cheer her on even when it's hurting him. Amazing. I love seeing that. Very excited to see where this goes!
Author's Response: I'm really glad that resonated as much as it did; when I paused the frame, it just struck me, and I wondered if I was projecting or something, LOL. Thanks so much for reviewing!
I can't believe it's taken me this long to catch up...amazing how pretty close you were to what actually happened! Love that Pam was thinking of the CN night as she crossed the coals. Amazing.
Heh - as I was watching the finale, I almost fell off my sofa at the Beach Day flashback when he asked her how her feet were. :o) I'm glad you liked the CN/coal walk connection - I just kept thinking that Pam would surely have drawn on how scary it must've been for Jim to have lain it all on the line like he did the year before (and with such disastrous consequences, however temporary).
Thanks for reviewing!
I love that Jim realizes that nothing has felt right since CN. (Hasn't felt right to me either).
Author's Response: Amen to that, sister. Here's to a season four of everything feeling RIGHT again! :o) Thanks for reviewing!
I love that Jim was hesitant about the interview to begin with...that makes me feel better. So appropriate that Karen was the one that talked him into it. And Michael would so read Glamour. Love that Pam couldn't be mad at him even after what he did all day...very Pam. Just spot on characterization all the way through.
Author's Response:
That's really the way I envisioned it happening - that it was less his desire to go for it himself as it was her encouraging him to do so.
Thank you so much for all the reviews!
Wow...that was emotional. I love that Pam didn't back dwon from what she said and that she knows Jim well enough to see that he's struggling with the corporate job.
Author's Response:
I'm glad it impacted you that way -- I worked hard on that chapter, let me tell you. :o)
Thanks for reviewing!
I love that they bond, after all that, over the fact that Dwangela does indeed exist. Just seems right. Love that Jim didn't interview at corporate and that he broke it off with Karen. Wonderful story.
Author's Response:
LIke I keep saying - I think it'll be a really cute moment when they both do figure out the other knows. hee.
Thanks again for taking the time to review all the chapters; you rock!
