The little things were threatening to drive him insane.... a few 55-word chapters on learning to live with the one you love.
It was getting a little angsty, and then...awww... Moxie is just a big ole softy. Yay. Great stuff, as usual.
PS - I prefer sitting in the back at the theater too. :-)
A pool party and a shirtless Jim. Need I say more?
Another story in the series - Jim Halpert: More Than the Sum of His Parts
Oh, yay for Phyllis! Not even a closet hussy. :-)
What a fun summer story, Moxie. I was smiling from beginning to end. Awesome stuff as usual.
Jim and Pam and two telephones, post-Season 3.Chapter one - Jim with no pants. Um, yeah this has my full attention. This made me laugh out loud (probably too loud):
“Well, in a bizarre coincidence, I’m wearing an oversized pink robe too.”
Awesome. Can't wait for the rest.
A few fuzzy, fluffy one-shots that form a loosely connected story. Based around the idea of this quote by Germaine Greer:
"The essence of pleasure is spontaneity."
"My underpants."
Uh, *pfft* Goodbye, brain computer.
Daaaamn, Moxie. Short and sweet (or would that be smut? Hee!)
Oooh, I can't wait to see where this is going. :-)!
Author's Response: Me, either! ;-) Thanks for reviewing, Susan!
Aw, what a sweet story. I love how after all this time they can still be so shy toward each other, it's very endearing. I love happy JAM stories and this is a great one!
A first fight and a bowl of make-up spaghetti. (No spoilers.)
Oh? Are we gonna do this?
‘Seriously, Jim…maybe I’m just not awesome enough…’
‘I didn’t love her,’
Oh hell, yeah we're gonna do this! I just wished I had something more intelligent to say than wow, but WOW! The voices are just perfect; angsty, intense and sexy as hell.
And then...
‘Can I kiss you for a little bit?’
Yeah. I'm dead. I want this on my teevee in September! :-)!
Author's Response: Yup. Did it. And, okay, I'll admit (but, ssshhh...just between you and me) 'Can I kiss you for a little bit' is the line that gets to me too. Thanks, as always, for reading and commenting, Susan M.
Ha! So sweet and fun. What's the matter with you, larry? Nobody's dead. :-P
Post season three finale. Pam, Jim, a train. I love stories that make you feel transported. This is just so elegantly written. Amazing.
One of Andy's favorite phrases takes on a whole new meaning.
Mose thinks his was "so wrong". He's a wuss.
Brain broken *pfft*
Well done, sir.
WYDM is Scranton's local radio station, with our favorite paper-pushers as DJs. Kelly gossips, Angela gives advice, Toby does traffic, and there's a new guy doing the morning show that's causing quite a stir...
This is so great. What a fun idea. Can't wait to see what happens next.
Author's Response: Thanks for reading Susan! :)
Dinner, and what happened later. Post-Season 3.No bodyswap? Boo! :D
Aw, pretty Pam. Yes, I imagine she looks very much like she's having a good day. Such sweetness, and then...
‘I think my foot is on a copy of Karen’s CV.’
Ha! Loving this story so far. Looking forward to more slack-jawed and drooling!Jim. Yay.
Author's Response: Hee. Crunch. In a perfect world, she'd be wearing boots to do it, too. Thank you, Susan M!
Pam takes a trip to Target, buys a swimsuit, and gets some inspiration from an unlikely source.Sudsy, what a dawesome debut!
First I love how the title refers to Target, but also made me think of Pam drilling down on what she wants. Good stuff.
Pam's thought process on why she can't be friends with Karen, and the conclusion that Jim ruins everything. Gold. Pure gold.
And then the sun comes out? Perfection.
Awesome first fic. Can't wait to read more.
Such sweetness. Great story as usual, Moxie. But this part:
“I think I'd rather be stripped naked and tied down with my own belt, necktie and shoelaces.”
Uh, sequel? :-P
haha! Hmm..... maybe..... :-D
Thanks for reviewing, Susan!!
Oh, man I knew this was going to be angsty, but wow. That was angsty.
Pre-FNB makes me crazy. Always waiting for something to happen. Waiting for Jim to make a move (again...). Always settling. Her job, her fiance, her situation. Bah. I can't stay mad at her. :-D
This fic brings to mind "It's a Wonderful Life." This is what Pam's life would have been like is she hadn't been brave enough to listen to the truth that had been in her face for three years. Praise be to Gil. :-D
Awesome stuff, Azlin!
Author's Response:
I know. I thought about adding some kind of warning that it was really, really angsty, but then I thought I might scare people away.
Yeah, I don't get pre-FNB either, but at the same time I can't help but love her. On the other hand, I'm so glad she came to her senses! And I'm also so glad you enjoyed this. Thanks for the review, Susan!
A series of vignettes inspired by random song clips from the iPod. No chronological order, so sit tight. It might be a bumpy ride through time.Aw, total sweetness. Here's to much healing and smooching in S4! Great job, Sweetpea.
Author's Response: I'm all for lots of smooching and sweetness! Thanks, Susan.
Written for both the Pam's Pregnancy and 55 Word challenges. Takes place before The Job.
Wheeee... Oh, poor Karen. NOT. :-P
You are the master of the 55 word challenge!
This is an idea I've had for a long time. It is inspired by the very end of the Six Feet Under series finale (hence the title), and it seems that the 55 word style would be perfect for it. Each chapter will focus on a different Office character. 20 chapters are planned.
I do not own these characters, and would not do this to them if I did. No copyright infringement intended.
10 I hate you, larry. I need a tissue. *blows nose*
Author's Response:
Awww, you don't really hate me (I think).
I'd hand you a tissue but I'm late in responding so I hope you have one by now...
50 10 Oh yay! Return of Squirrel, return of the fic archive, Jim's back at his desk, and our favorite sweethearts are dating. All is right in the world. :D
Author's Response:
Now it's time to get smutty.... wait, isn't that where you were going with that?? ;-)
Thanks for reviewing, Susanita!
Wheee... Yay for happy Jim and Pam. What a sweet story, Sudsy. I loved it. Smiles from start to finish. :-) <--see. Hee!
Author's Response: Oh, thanks so much, Susan! I am so glad you liked it. :-D
A story of loss, love, and inspiration.10 Okay, I'm tired and so this is going to be pretty blunt so send the kids out of the room for a second.
I fu*king hate babyfic. Seriously. No offense to those who write it, and from the amount of it that gets written people must really love it, so no offense to those folks either. It's just not for me.
HOLD ON - this is a positive review. Just stay with me a second.
I was chatting with someone when I started reading this, and I even said to them, "Oh damnit, Allentown is babyfic -- I'm not going to like this." Except Allentown isn't just babyfic -- and I'm glad that I stayed with it because usually I shut my browser the second the pee stick turns pink.
I just burned through all eleven chapters and I'm sitting here now all sniffly because it was just so incredible.
In my opinion the best fics are those that are true to the characters, and true to canon (or fanon - hello, Jonathan), but build on both in a way that adds to our understanding of them. This entire story is so spot on. It takes the JAM storyline in a direction that is interesting and fresh, but also feels familiar. I really have been missing our show lately, and this fic was as satisfying and enjoyable as the actual show, so kudos to you, sweetpea.
I'm glad to see this story was awarded a ribbon. It's well deserved.
And that video made me all schmoopy. :D
Author's Response:
Okay, I love you so much it hurts. When I first started posting this story, I was afraid it was going to be pegged as babyfic - and personally, I have nothing against it at all! If it's done right (See: LoveFool) it's wonderful. But I knew this wasn't about the baby, really. Poor little Natalie was really just a plot device (like Karen, only...smaller) for Pam's storyline. I was worried that she seemed ambivalent about being pregnant in the beginning - I think that would be a real emotion she might have, but I know a lot of readers don't want to think JAMbabies wouldn't make her the happiest camper in the park.
Anyway...thank you so much for reading this and, what? As satisfying as the show? Good grief, that might be the best thing ever! I've been missing J & P and the whole gang so much these days! Stupid greedy studios! The video was my first (obviously!) attempt and I'll admit that I was bawling like a baby while I was finishing it. Couldn't have done that without all your hard work.
Thank you so much, Susanita, for sticking with the story and for this awesome review. :-*
awwww.... thanks, sora. Such sweetness! I smiled through the whole thing. I love this story! I miss my JAM. :(
This helps. /pam
::huggles::
Jim relives the dark days of early June 2006.
Australia was never about taking a vacation.
Well then. Looks like ole Jimpert got his hug after all. :D
They make it exactly one hundred and twenty-three hours.10 How sweet and funny and then, wow. Smokin'. Excellent characterizations and great dialogue.
Author's Response: Thank you! :)
Two days after the Booze Cruise...what might've happened if Jim had confessed sooner.10 It's so embarrassing how happy I get to see the e-mail notification in my inbox. :D You're cloning Chuck and making another Halpert?! Okay. I'm in! Can't wait to see what happens next!
And there better be some kissing. :-P
Eee -- so glad you're excited about another Halpert brother who's inspired by Chuck. :o) I just couldn't resist, because they seem so similar to me (JK & ZL). I wrote the second chapter before the second to last episode aired (the one wherein Chuck spends the bulk of the episode trying to talk Casey into going after his ex-girlfriend) -- so that episode sort of doubly thrilled me, as Chuck was doing there what Josh does here, to a degree.
I'm rambling. :o) Thanks so much for reviewing -- and about the kissing? ...Oh yes, there will be kissing. :oP
