That was so brilliantly enjoyable!!!!!
Makes me grumble about the never ending craptastic playoffs runs that were Tulukka Rask and all the ways we were never going to win a Cup with him in net. But we would have LOVED to have hung out and watched with the Halpert’s!! Such great blending of the awesome Twitter tease between the actors too!
F A N T A S T I C story to add in to Jaime & Morgan’s story.

Author's Response: it was a lot of fun to write too. Adding in a bunch of real life stuff too because, why not? John and Jenna proved that their chemistry and friendship are still solid was a lot of fun to add as well. Glad you liked it.

I love it!!!! What a creative way of telling their child their story!!! So beautiful.

Author's Response: Thanks, Jim and Pam have always been able to have fun around the office. Makes sense it would translate to at home too.

I adore this so much! A really lovely blending of canon moment into the Jaime/Morgan which I think is a beautiful specialty for sure. So sweet having the ‘what happened after’ and seeing the video again without cameras in their faces.

Author's Response: Thank you! I wanted to get into their heads a little as Jenna's performance when she watched that video was so sweet and always made me wonder what was going through Pam's mind. Then they get to replay it at home and add in their own commentary which I found to be wonderfully fun to write. Glad you enjoyed it so much.

Re-read this now that I have the full and glorious background of Jamie and Morgan… it is SOOOO much better to read now.

Author's Response: I'm glad it can stand on its own, but even more glad that being part of a larger universe brings out more depth. Thanks for coming back to it.

EPIC FIST PUMP FOR THE CALL BACKS BRILLIANTLY TO THIS EPISODE AND THE EARLIER TIMES PAM WAS PART OF THE PRANK PLANNING!!!!
What an ABSOLUTELY marvelous and enjoyable story to read!!

Author's Response: Thank you. It was a lot of fun to bring in all those pranks. Same with showing some more depth of Jim and Pam's relationship. Glad you liked it and thanks for all the reviews.

Warrior, how did I never submit a review for this? I absolutely love this and I’ve read it many times. It is so incredibly satisfying reading how Jim (and Pam) bring Cathy to rights about their marriage.

Author's Response: Thanks for getting back to this one. Especially now that this episode was recently talked about on Office Ladies. The way I saw it Jim and Pam were just about at their best around this time. There's no way Cathy would have stood a chance or that JAM would have let it slide. Glad you liked it.

I absolutely love the patter you write. It flows so well, I felt like a fly on the wall of a wonderful married couple who genuinely works together in partnership.

Author's Response: Thank you so much. When Jim and Pam are at their best, they're really a great couple. There's some stuff from my own marriage woven in here too so that's fun to bring in as well.

Awwww a smidge of preview of the little heartaches that come when Scranton is no longer a good fit for him. Adore the Mr Roger’s reference … so perfectly calling out both HIS cardigans and all of Pam’s!

Author's Response: Yeah kind of a call forward from a call back. Glad you liked the extra details as well.

Awwww!!! I love that. The haughtiness of people who think comics, audiobooks and fanfiction aren’t ‘reading’ is infuriating!!! This was perfectly said.
What a fabulous reset moment, reconnecting Jim with the office happenings and the finer things club by sharing his finer things!

Author's Response: Reading is reading. Granted we have a wealth of outstanding stories here on MTT so that helps. It was fun to have Jim recover from his early Finer Things snafu as well.

This may be my favorite chapter (have to see how the other shape out of course) but… the sweetness of Dwight & Pam friendship is always my favorite and I adore the blending of him being supportive to her while Jim is away. Then the bonus gift of Jim bringing Cece… absolutely priceless.

Author's Response: The Dwight/Pam relationship is really a great one. His soft spot for her. Her ability to see the good in him. It's all wonderful. Glad I could bring that out. Jim showing up at work is just the icing on the cake.

Eeyore may be becoming the star of this enjoyable story. Baby-bunny ESP is a delightful thought.
I get a silly giggle out of combining Journals of Stay at Home Dad with the canon Jim of “I’m not helping, unless it is a boy” joke. So funny to see both being true in the same person.

Author's Response: Glad you like Eeyore. His real life counterpart has slowed down considerable since the time of writing, but he's still a good bun. Really glad you're enjoying all this. I recall that real life experience as a test of patience and my olfactory nerve.

Air fist pump and the return of Jonathan!!!
And, I totally giggle because I use that same ‘detritus of our lives’ phrasing with clients all the time ;)
What a cute aside to show Pam having a spot of fun at work while able to relax knowing Jim had company and assistance at home.
This story is just SO much fun!

Author's Response: That's the fun thing about a shared universe of stories. Lots of chances for repeat characters to show up. Great fun to also show how quick Pam's wit is as well.

Ok, you make me miss Applebees… hahaha!!!
How sweet, the little
Moments of mundane life, the ‘good stuff’ that too many people do not treasure and understand. Most people think holidays or flashy vacations. No. This, this is the good stuff.

Author's Response: We all know what Pam thinks about ordinary things.  It's nice to slow down and enjoy those moments for sure.

OMG OMG OMG!!!!! ETHAN AND EMILY ARE BACK!!!!!! I mean, I was enjoying the silly turn of Jim’s prankster/joking creativity into the daily journal posts… but you brought back the fun of Ethan & Emily and even that Ethan is now part of the prancing fun! And, what a scene… makes me long for days when I enjoyed and had spiritual community. So sweet and kind.

Author's Response: It's the fun of creating a shared universe of stories, other characters can flit in and out of the tale like this to make it more real. Pranks are how we keep things fun in the First Responder world. If one gets pranked it's usually because that person's been accepted in the group and we know they're a quality person. Which also means ideas for other pranksters like Jim can flow easily too.

FABULOUS!!!!!
While I have enjoyed the last few chapters, this one bringing all three together for the entirety was so sweet! The kindness and planning of a mundane care task done together is so deeply sweet. And, Jim got a whoop of a apporval from me when he said what I was thinking! BACK OFF lady! And ABSOLUTELY kudos the mommas!!

Author's Response: Don't mess with Papa Bear Jim. He'll make sure to protect what's important. Jim just reaching out to the pushy woman was how my younger sister dealt with people who just reached for her without permission when she was pregnant. She said it usually worked too.

OH MY GOODNESS!!!!!! Science and Dwight and Pam playing pranks remotely with Jim!!!!! SOOOOO GOOD!!!

Author's Response: Glad you liked it. It took a fair bit of research to come up with all that, but it was fun.

Oh my word this is such a fun and silly story to lose myself in. The mix of moments of playful banter, love and affection are so marvelous. Glimpses in to what most would see as mundane or ordinary. . . But is that the point?

Author's Response: That is exactly the point Some quiet domestic moments we never got to see much of in the show.

Awwww… Thai felt a little like one of those ‘off days’ we heard them talk about. Not connecting, but still manintaininbg the connection with the little back and forth moments of texts and journals. How marvelously sweet!

Author's Response: There's going to be a lot of those kinds of moments as this story goes on. But yeah, sometimes partners only get a few precious seconds to connect.

Hands flapping in happiness, heart ready to go… this is going to be a lovely little part of Jamie & Morgan’s story.
Great start, adore all the little additional flavors to make the Halpert’s life at home more rich. We didn’t get to see much of them once Cece arrived, the canon plot didn’t do all that much aside from the occasional mention and the Christening. So this is a very welcome addition!

Author's Response: Okay so this is already taking me back. Both to when I first started the whole journal thing and then to when I wrote this story. Glad you're enjoying it so far.

This was so wonderful! How enjoyable to read it from Jim’s side. Not sure how I missed reading this chapter, since I know I read Pam’s.
The terrific little back and forth allowing Jim to have an apology with Karen was perfect, and the nod to when she got engaged was great too.
I felt the same Jim energy from Office Olympics here, rallying people over time to join in the activity he was demonstrating. Helping the staff, shoveling things out, being kind and courteous. So wonderful.

Author's Response: It was a challenge to write Jim's side for sure. Thanks for picking up on those details. Always fun to include them. I agree, when Jim really sets his mind to something, usually the people around him get caught up in it too. Thanks for the review.

I had read this before I knew the wonderfulness of the Jaime & Morgan series! It made this SO much sweeter and interesting to read, knowing the whole family already had such a rich backstory & connections.

Author's Response: Thanks for coming back to it. Always a lot of fun to add depth to the Jamie/Morgan world.

This was F A B U L O U S !!!
Such terrific backstory to why Jim hates costumes, the right mix of the two of them playing off each other and gently cajoling Jim into something without pressure.
AND YOU GAVE ME TEN?!?! Larissa as the 10th Doctor was PERFECT!

Author's Response: It being still fairly new into their dating relationship, I figure Pam doesn't have to work all that hard to get Jim to do something. Still it was a lot of fun to set them bouncing off each other so playfully. My wife's favorite Doctor is Ten so that's where that came from. Glad you liked it.

Oooooo! Nice! A Roy centric chapter! Very nice addition, and I think really needed since you had already brought so much more to Roy with his dad dying and his grief process a big part of the relationship. Well done indeed

Author's Response: Thanks. It can be hard to write Roy so I'm glad this came across well.

For ‘trying’ to write angst, you NAILED it! Perfect blend of anger and petulance.
THANK YOU EMILY!!!!! For all we adore Jim, he also suffered MAJOR Nice Guy Syndrome and he COMPLETELY deserved a slap over that comment.

Author's Response: Jim's very much not at his best here. Really wallowing in all the negative feelings and all. Not that it excuses anything so yup, he gets a brain re-adjustment. He'll get there, just not now.

Ooops! That was a mistake on my part.. haha! Slammed right on in here as they next in the series after the final chapter of ‘Thing Called Life’ and all the smiling of that chapter shooshed out remembering how hard this night was.
Beautifully done, filling in the gaps between kiss and GONE. Poor Jim….

Author's Response: Yeah it wasn't a great night for him after the kiss. Kind of hard to write but I'm glad you thought it went over well.
