Short drabbleish stream of consciousness thing on Pam during "Cocktails".
Simple. Nice. Sometimes this is just what you need.
Mostly Pams POV. Pam has finally become one with the Fancy New Beesly.
Spoilers through Cocktails.
As far as I can tell you've captured them well. Then again, I've only been watching the show since this season, so I'm not exactly an expert. Though to me, this fic screams not for steaminess, but for violence. And then steaminess.
For all she’d tried to deny it, there was something about him that simply made her happy.
An Improv!Fic peek inside Jan's mind during her trip to Sandals Jamaica.
Michael/Jan makes me happy. I kind of picture your Michael as one of those fluffy little dogs - often annoying yet cuddly...
Written for PuffingNoise's Improv!Fic elements, which are listed at the end. Pure fluff. :)
You killed a crab though. I cannot condone this. Unless there's garlic butter.
What? A happy non humour non making fun of Kelly and/or Ryan Ryan/Kelly fic? Has that ever been done before? Even if it has, your are certainly a trailblazer among us.
Author's Response: Hmm, so does that mean you liked it? ;) Hope so! I really enjoy Ryan and Kelly's characters, there is so much under the surface there. I (sometimes unfortunately) often find myself really identifying with Ryan's character, even as a girl.
Deleted scenes in a fic? Why that's just nutty!
Stanley always rocks - without putting much effort into it.
Dwight saves the day? Who would have thought?
Yup, it’s a post-Cocktails fic! With a bit of a twist. Karen does a bad thing, and Jim is about to suffer the consequences…I realized that I never actually got around to finishing reading this since I was waiting for it to be finished before I tackled it and I'm just rereading from the beginning again and nearly busted a gut at Kenny.
Michael and Jan. Halloween. Marriage. Boo!
Written as a response to a 5 elements improv!fanfic - finished in under 2 hours.
Phyllis and Bob had better watch out if Kevin gets hungry...
It's hard to write a happy Toby fic because well, we've never seen him happy. Pam and little fluffy dogs would help that situation though. If not, I'll gladly take them.
But Jim likes the way Jim's room is, and if it's only a few strokes, he can pretend it's all still the same.
Jim tries to paint his room one day, but never quite finishes the job.
As long as Gil doesn't show up to criticize Jim's home decor...
10 I can't wait to see where you take this because it's been so good so far.
Maybe Jim likes to go commando every so often...
Pam's discovered the world of internet chat rooms. Jim can't resist the chance to be near her in cyberspace. Spoilers up to Cocktails. You know, thanks to you everyone in this fandom is going to be obsessed with squirrels. There are already squirrels popping up all over in inexplicable places. Soon you'll be the leader of a squirrel worshipping cult of Office fans, collecting nuts and hiding up in trees all over the place.
Author's Response: It's all part of my plan for total world domination....shhhh!
I caved and wrote a post-Cocktail fic that can be best described by Jim's Talking Head from Season 2 Ep 6:
Fight! Fight! Fight! FIGHT!
10 What a way to end this! I've been waiting for a catfight in this fandom forever. Sure it's not exactly likely, but damn, it's fun. And Angela getting in a fight is just perfect. I can believe that.
Author's Response: Haha, me too! I thought you'd be the first to throw one out actually, hehe. I can totally see Angela getting in a fight, she's scrappy!
If I were a more prolific writer I probably would have done a catfight. Hell, I may still - eventually. I prefer to joke about it though, rather than actually doing it. I'm just glad someone did it, and yours was so fun (I never expected Kelly to be first one in, but that's great too).
Author's Response: You may not be a prolific writer (yet), but I've really enjoyed all of your fics so far and I hope you keep posting :) I'm glad you had fun reading it!
“Pam? Well, we are more like acquaintances now. She does her own thing and I do mine. It’s best this way if you think about it,” Jim said into the camera.
Pam is leaving Dunder Mifflin. Where do Jim and Pam stand before her departure?
10 This was damned good. Just Wow. I don't think I've ever seen this done before (for such a simple concept, that's odd, but I guess people don't want to think about that possibility). But you took it, and you nailed it. I'm not sure if I want to see where you take it, though, because you said it perfectly already.
10 Well, I didn't want you to take this past a oneshot, but now that you have I guess you have to continue.
9 Well, we all know this is going to blow up in everyone's faces, but you've done some great work here exposing the why. Nicely done.
Everything melts eventually, and then it all tastes the same.
Jim & Kevin, outside in the bushes during Phyllis' Wedding. Slash-ish-ish. :)
Am I the only one who read a little too much into that title? Yes?
Author's Response: Hahaha, I wondered if someone would mention something about the things implied in the title. You win a prize for that. Perhaps a bag of M&Ms.
It's not that Karen didn't see the signs, she just chose to ignore them...
Vignettes take place either during or close to episodes, including a post-Cocktails vignette.
Well, that's depressing. Poor girl.
Maybe not entirely consistent with their personalities as shown this season, but adequately mentally scarring and treats Karen better than most (I think most people on this site would rather run her over with a bus, which is just mean). It's pretty good.
Author's Response: I think the whole premise goes against their characters, but I wanted to try a solution that would be the least damaging to Karen... and I figured the only way to do that well was to put her in control. I hope it worked well enough! I have too much sympathy for her as a character. Thanks for the comments :)
It's 6am in Scranton, where are all our favorite Dunder-Miffliners?
You know, it really bothers me that so many people really hate Karen for the heinous crime of daring to date Jim while not being Pam. I'm glad that you portray her in a sympathetic light.
Author's Response: Yeah, I think it's easy to get caught up in bashing Karen, just because you love Jam, but for the most part I personally think she's a really cool girl that's stuck in a really sucky situation. Anyways, thank you for the review, I really appreciate your feedback!
4 We're a glacier (frozen but moving).
Update:It's done!
10 That was one helluva mood piece. I'd give more insightful feedback, but I'm trying to watch a hockey game at the same time, so I've got nothing other than vague praise.
Author's Response:
:D yay hockey!
Thank you for reviewing!
A short example of the type of literary masterpiece that suits the new "Bad Fanfic" challenge. Please enjoy the glory of this great work of art. THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID!
Disclaimer - I didn't write this... my dog did. He may own the Office and all it's characters. If he does, he's not sharing it with me.
Your dog is much more literate than my dog.
Author's Response: Yeah, but my momma's uglier. And I've met your dog. Not. that. smart.
You have such bad timing. Pam's supply closet fantasy immediately after Maybe Once's The Hot Sex in the Supply Closet Story Badfic posting? I couldn't read you two paragraphs without laughing. I think there may just be something wrong with my brain.
Author's Response: I actually read that right after I posted mine, and laughed. That was a random thought, and only one paragraph of the entire story.
