AU After the merger. Pam learns the dreams Jim had before Dunder Mifflin and why he had to abandon them. Will it change how she feels about him?MEMBER'S CHOICE - An alternate universe where Pam and Roy had a wedding, Pam goes to art school in New York, Dwight owns a restaurant and Jim works for a job in advertising that he likes a lot more and gets a lot more money at.
Basically? Dunder Mifflin never exists. And everyone meets under different circumstances.
The characters are pretty much the same -- personality-wise -- they just have different roles and work different jobs.
Now that they are together, it's all about them.This was submitted for the Office Fiction Writers Challenge. Kevin Malone decides to try his hand at creative writing.A glimpse into the instant messaging history of Jim and Pam. Written with the intention of expanding on what we see on the show, as well as to tie up some loose ends. There will be a conversation for each episode through Season 3.
What if Pam had been much stronger - bolder - throughout season three? AU because I'm not following much of the S3 storyline, but that's when this is basically taking place. Some spoilers (S3).
Pam married Roy, but Jim's return to Scranton complicates the life she thought she wanted.
Karen POV post-Branch Wars. Spoilers through BW.
She tries to pinpoint the moment when being near him went from making her feel bubbly and young to brittle and needy.
Two days after the Booze Cruise...what might've happened if Jim had confessed sooner.It wasn’t supposed to be like this. Costa Rica was supposed to fix him.A collection of stories and vignettes in response to the Word challenge. They all involve the conference room in some way. The chapter titles are the prompt words from the challenge.
MEMBER'S CHOICE - Katy and Jim are still dating during Jim’s “Email Surveillance” BBQ. When Pam sees them together it lights a fire under her.Very brief look at The Merger through The Job from Jim's POV.Pam needs someone to save her. Help is just a phone call away. Takes place during Back From Vacation.
It had always amused me that apparently the DM receptionists talk to each other about gossip (courtesy of Branch Wars) and I wanted to explore that. Also, apparently Rolando is flaming gay in my head, so... there's that.
This will be a series of self-contained chapters (oneshots) exploring various "what ifs" pertaining to episodes spanning seasons one through three. Each chapter will examine how things would've gone differently if either Jim or Pam had responded to a given situation the way that (most) fans had wanted or almost expected them to.
For example, the first chapter focuses on how things would've happened differently if Jim had confessed during those twenty-seven seconds of silence on the booze cruise when we were all holding our breath and hoping he would.
Among the other chapters I have mapped out: What if all the reminders of Jim in "Gay Witch Hunt" had provoked not a small, sad smile from Pam at the end of the episode, but rather, had motivated her to take action -- drive to Stamford to see him for the first time in four months? Or what if Jim had responded to Pam's text in "Diwali" via a post-Jagermeister phone call? What if Jim had walked in on Pam crying at the end of "Back From Vacation"? (...You get the idea.)
Again, though, each chapter will be confined to an episode, so it will essentially be a series of oneshots that are unrelated to each other.
