Before, during, after (peas, waffles.) Post-Cocktails...but no fighting.Post "Ben Franklin," pre "Phyllis's Wedding." AU in the sense that...well, things go differently here between Jim and Pam than they went on the show.
This is what I'd wish for.
Also - this is a completed story.
Pam and Jim decide to get it out of their system...Literally. This idea just wouldn't get out of head, especially after all the fight fics, I figure there has to be another way to get rid of the sexual tension- why not actual 'casual' sex. Oh and it's going to really backfire. P.S. This is way fluffier than my usual stuff AND almost finished too. So there's that.
He should've been happy that Karen had finally warmed up to his joking ways. He wasn't.
Role Reversal Challenge: It's May 2006. Jim's wedding is approaching and a lovelorn Pam can't take much more. Starts during Casino Night (or an AU version of it).
"It seems odd, in the ironic, slap-in-the-face kind of way that since her incident, it’s been easier to let him go."
Something bad happens to Pam. Very Dark.
Member's Choice - “My father died, so I’ll need a few days.” She explained in an unaffected sounding voice that surprised even herself. The three other parties in the room were stunned into silence. Jim spoke first. “Jesus, Pam…” She stood with her back to him and addressed Michael as if Jim had not made a sound…as if Jim did not exist. It was the only way.
I needed some cheering up, so in that vein, here is an incredibly un-angsty little piece of fluff. It's only three parts long and it's almost all done.
Pam and Jim reconnect in the most unlikely of all places...
It's the night before Jim's wedding and the person he expects to ruin it all hasn't shown up yet...so he decides to go and find her...fluffish...no spoilers.
Three years have passed since Pam left Scranton for New York, and Jim is still very much on her mind. Will a work-related trip to Rome, Italy be the catalyst that reunites Pam with Jim once and for all?
26 Begun out of hiatus frustration as an exploration of what we might miss of Jim and Pam's newfound romance, this has grown into something unique and cool, a multi-authored exercise in creativity and obsession.
By the way, we talk about it here if you're interested in saying hi.
What would have happened if Jim had been a little later getting back to the office?
Jim and Pam and two telephones, post-Season 3.Mid-season 3, Michael takes the staff out for some much-needed fresh air.
What if Pam had gone along with Michael and Dwight to the convention? Was she ready to see Jim? Was Jim ready to face Pam?Jim and Pam have 24 hours together before he leaves for Stamford. A lot can happen when you're on borrowed time.MEMBER'S CHOICE TOP NOMINEE - Jim and Pam must interact in network sponsored live chats to promote their documentary. Angst (and maybe some smut) ensue.
Story now complete.
50 Pam calls off her wedding. Roy loses it. Jim's in Stamford, but not for long.
A hospital stay and the recovery afterward, almost entirely from Jim's POV. Earnest and fluffy and sweet, with a side of steam for dessert. Tons of inner monologue, lots of dialogue, dramatic with plenty of humor sprinkled throughout.
Yet another story inspired by a song by Ingrid Michaelson called Breakable. I really wanted to tell a story about people being just that -- breakable, and ultimately how grace helps keep us from falling apart. So yeah -- a nice fluffy holiday piece. ;-)What if Jim never went to Stamford? What if Pam started making life changes a little sooner?
An AU look at season 3.
