I love this chapter. Seeing some of the inner workings of Jim's mind regarding Dwangela? Priceless. I love how he figures out that Pam knows, and that you've quoted that amazing exchange between Jim and Pam from E-mail Surveillance.
I love any reference to Veronica Mars and/or Kristen Bell. They are probably not on Kelly's "things that are a-may-zing!" list, but they're definitely on mine. And I love the thought that Jim has a thing for Kristen Bell.
I'll be here when you have more!
Author's Response: Who doesn't love Kristen? ;) One of my friends and I have discussions about how we're sure she'd be our friend... if she knew us! Silly! But I've noticed guys like her too, my husband does for sure, so Jim's gotta love her!
And that note on your last review about the chapter titles. Totally there. I get confused when I'm uploading as to who is next! I really didn't expect this story to be as long as it's turning out... so I guess that's why I started that way. Oh well, next time!
thanks for reading! Glad you're enjoying it. :)

Oh, lovely. Hopefully he comes to that same conclusion in canon!, too - considering, especially, how they were standing in the same frame [!!! - heh] in the Safety Training promo...
The thing is, this is completely believable! - I can't help love how well you get across the situation, how much I can understand why they're going through the motions the way they are, and therefore sticking so well to the show, and still there seems to be a clearing in the distance, some light, some optimism - diverting there from the show, because from watching the JAM scenes of the show all we get is a fat scoop of depression topped with a cherry of never-going-to-happen...oh, the writers, how they torture us so!
And how well you read them still! ;)
Amazing stuff, as always, tv_dream: it's not funny how much I love this story. I literally jumped when I noticed a new chapter up [while I kept refreshing the Most Recent page ;)].
Author's Response: Heh... yeah, the Safety Training promo is what made me realize I had to even Jim out a little because he's obviously speaking to her in some capacity by then. Will definitely be interesting to see.
I always love your reviews as they sort of confirm what I'm shooting for. Sometimes I feel like I'm just rehashing the episodes - and I am, in a way, but I like to imagine the undercurrents, so I'm glad it registers that way! I see things happening and I think, "Oh my god, I totally know what that feels like." and here we have the fruits.
Hehe... glad to know I'm not the only one who refreshes the page endlessly. At work. When I have a pile of crap to do. Like right now! :)
Thanks for reading!
