Bio:
I started writing fanfic before I knew what it was, as a kid in the 70's and 80s, making up stories in my head as I fell asleep about the further adventures of Han Solo, Remington Steele, and the Scarecrow and Mrs. King. I'm just that dorky. But, this Office fanfic is the first I've commited to the printed word.

OK, Mox.   I've just reread this whole delicious story, and all the usual accolades spring to mind....but, with one we critique. 

If we are keeping score on satisfaction, Jim is beating Pam by a 2-1 ratio AT LEAST.   I say girl deserves some payback.  

And, it goes without saying that your loyal readers deserve a detailed description. 



Author's Response:

Good, good point.  I think Mr. Halpert is going to have to step it up over Saturday night/Sunday morning, to give Ms Beesly a reason to miss him.  :-)

And I can't possible end this story on a T rating, now can I??

Thanks for reviewing!! 

Summary: I wish I had a great story to add about the current situation, but with all the great stories that are already out, I didn't have anything new to offer. So, this is an old one, but I hope you enjoy it. Set after "Michael's Birthday."

Jim and Pam discuss cohabitation on a Sunday morning. Written after Back from Vacation as an antidote to Pam's crying scene. Just couldn't leave it alone, now could I?

Aw, so sweet!   I especially love this:  Sometimes she thought she’d be happy living in his pocket, if she’d fit.

 



Author's Response: Well, seriously, who wouldn't want to get into his...pockets? Glad you liked this, Maybe Once...thanks!

I am confused by this:

“Yeah me too actually. Well… guess we’ll have to do this again some time.” He says smiling at her. In unison, they turn to the camera and say: “Don’t miss us! We’ll be back in six weeks so you can continue to see us avoiding each other! Here on NBC.”

 

I thought this was a story about things that WON'T happen.   And that seems to happen with alarming regularity.  

 As always, thanks for the laugh.....

Ugh.  I wish I didn't suspect that this is exactly what happened.   Really well done.  Good job.


Author's Response: Thanks so much for all the wonderful compliments! I really appreciate the review!

Summary:

A series of drabbles, set after Back From Vacation (with some slight spoilers) and deviating from there. Pam makes Jim face the same difficult decision (and consequences) that she had to deal with.

Each drabble is 100 words according to MS Word, so if the summary says otherwise...it's lying. :0)

Karen bit her lip, “But we will get back at them for the prank they did on me, right?”

 

Karen is such a wimp.   Lucky for her she has SUPER! Pam to stand up for her.   She owes her big time.

Oh, my goodness.   I certainly hope that this is not a "Julie" crossover fic, and that Jim's Philly hooker was Angela.....and that Jim told her this last night as part of the boysy boy prankfest........ 



Author's Response: Ok, I went and read the "Julie" fic to see what you're talking about... and phew...now there's some literature for ya. Oh my! Yeah, uh, Jim's Philly hooker was Angela.... Wow. That "Julie" fic, yowza! Okay, I don't think I could write something like that if you put a gun to my head. I mean... I'm a good girl, I am.....and holy smokes.

“You’re not going to find flowers there.” She breathed deeply.
“Got to start somewhere.” His free hand placed a napkin over her lap.
 

 

 My only quibble with this masterpiece is that Jim should have had a line about the "Delicate Flower" of Pam's Womanhood.    It's only right.



Author's Response: Maybe Once - Now I bow down before your expertise, but have you met me? I still think Jim owns a twin bed because he doesn't bring his girlfriends home. Have you read one too many Harlequin romances? I mean GOSH I would giggle myself to death if I started talking about 'delicate flowers' and OH MY GOD! YOU SHOULD TOTALLY WRITE ANOTHER SMUTTY BADFIC...oops, I'm sorry for being so loud. A smutty badfic about the "Delicate Flowers" of the Office. I envision the guys sitting around. Tossing a football. Discussing... yeah, you know what to do! You're the MASTER!

Heheheh.  Fact:   I refer to Pam and Karen as Betty and Veronica ALL THE TIME.   So glad to see you back, I just love this story....


Author's Response:

I swear to God the next statement I am going to make is true.

My best friend (female, 34 years old, normal American, right?) read this chapter and said "Who's Betty and Veronica?" I was like "Are you kidding?" She wanted me to take it out because she was sure that "only a small minority would get the reference!" I was like "HELL NO! I'm not taking it out. I'm going to spread the Betty and Veronica LOVE!" Go Betty! Get \Archie out of Ronnie's manicured claws of Doom!

OH NO SHE DIDN'T.

 

Pam, honey.   It's time to BRING IT.

 

More, please....as you can tell I am totally invested in this story...

OH YES SHE DID.
