This is so crazy, but somehow really believable.

Sooooo good! The incredibly awkward and specific sex talk in Chapter 1. The hotness of Chapter 2. The callbacks in Chapter 3. And Jim not being able to perform their first time because of Roy's wisdom.

Great fic. And I'm so glad you added the last chapter to tie it all together.

Author's Response: Thanks, madmen -- I really appreciate your taking the time to review.

I have either NOT read this fi, or have forgotten it, which is sooo unlike me.

That was sooo good. I love the idea of Roy coming to Jim to ask for help!!! Excellent and something I've never seen before!!

Author's Response: Glad you found it!

Awsome 3rd chapter!

Author's Response: Thanks, Nard Dogg :)

Oh. MyGod. This was so amazing. Like.... whoa. I can see Jim saying all those things, because he doesn't want to talk about this with Roy... and then he actually gets IN to it, you know? And then he wants his advice to work, 'cause theoretically that would mean that he pleasured Pam. It's just too much.

Author's Response: Thanks, JAMonMyToast :) I think things were more interesting when these two wanted to be together and couldn't.

Okay, I read the premise and thought WTF? But this is really good, I can't believe you wrote a story about Jim and Roy talking about what they talked about and having me suspend disbelief enough to enjoy the story. The ending was a hoot, too.

Unusual premise, good story.

Author's Response: Thanks, jazzfan, for giving it a read even though you had reservations. Glad you liked.

wow!!!
that was amazing!
all three!
cant wait for more!

Author's Response: Thanks, Dwangie, glad you enjoyed it. Don't hold your breath for more, though :)

The first half of this was very, very (very) uncomfortable to read.  If that was your goal, then mission accomplished.

Author's Response: It was. Thanks for reviewing, Alex

when I started reading this I thought it was hilarious, but fluffy, maybe even bordering on parody.  But you have two things strongly countering my instinct to read it that way.  The first is Jim's thoughts: you have him thinking in much the same way he looks at the camera, and he sometimes speaks like he does in canon, too.  The second is the last line, which hissed like lemon water in a cut.  Nicely done.  Thanks for writing.

Author's Response: Sure, thanks for reviewing!

Ha!  Nice ending line.

This is such a clever, sexy idea.  I love that Pam finds out it's Jim's advice that's giving her so much pleasure and that pretty much makes it Jim who's doing anything to her, even when it's really Roy.  Really nice idea and lovely writing -- thanks for sharing this!



Author's Response: Thanks, allibabab!

Niiiiiice.

Yeah, I'm channeling Kevin. I can't think of a single other thing to say. 



Author's Response: Heh, thanks, Semby!

Reviewer: Par5 Signed [Report This]
Date: January 09, 2007 08:19 am Title: Chapter 1

Like everyone else, I did a triple take when I saw this updated. Let me just say I'm glad you brought some resolution! Hot as the last chapter was it was also aching to think that Jim was experiencing hot lust from Pam that he'd never actually experience. Love the dialogue, love that they end up where they should. Thanks!

Author's Response: I'd felt for a while that this one wasn't quite finished, that Jim was being unnecessarily used (although he stepped into it). Thanks, Par5! :)

Date: January 08, 2007 08:42 pm Title: Chapter 3

Awww yeah!  I'm so glad you wrote a third chapter to this.  As always, stupendously well-written.  And you managed to turn what really was the most awkward conversation of all time in chapter 1 (I was squirming in my seat) into something halfway between cringe-worthy and hot in chapter 2, and finally into awesome flirty, steamy goodness in chapter 3.  I think this chapter really captured the Jim/Pam trademark banter, and I love that you always show instead of telling, as it were (as evidenced by your last line).  Awesome.

Author's Response: Thanks, neptune - I like the progression you describe - I'm glad that's how the story reads! :)

Oh man, I did a triple-take when I saw this was updated and then got absurdly excited.

So much love for this chapter.  Awkward, hysterical, sweet, and super hot.  You created a really great tone for them, and I think you did a particularly good job of capturing Jim's voice.  I could practically hear him in my head, which really just made this hotter ;)



Author's Response: Thanks, yippee! And yeah, here's to Jim talking in our heads :)

Reviewer: girl7 Signed 8 [Report This]
Date: January 08, 2007 06:05 pm Title: Chapter 3

Hahaha...this was awesome.  I thought I'd misread it when someone mentioned an update for this on TWoP - what a pleasant surprise.  This has the same sort of cringe factor that the show has (only the show never really gives us quite the happy ending that you have here...)

Nicely done!



Author's Response: Maybe one day, the show will. OK, so, not like this, but you know. Thanks, girl7 :)

Reviewer: kaystar Signed [Report This]

Absolutely loved this! Hot, sexy, funny and awkward all rolled up in a nice fluffy ball of Jam-iness.  (Fans self. Is it hot in here, or is it just me?)



Author's Response: Thanks, kaystar! ;)

That last line is ftw. Thank you for updating what is truly one of the most original fics out there. And for making me so gosh-darn warm!

Author's Response:

Hey, thanks - I appreciate that!

Date: January 08, 2007 04:33 pm Title: Chapter 1

OK.  What is wrong with me?

When I saw this recc'd at TWoP I didn't realize it said NEW CHAPTER.

Good golly.  "Any dogs around here?"

Fantastic Shan.  LOVE.



Author's Response: Hee, thanks, xoxoxo!  ;)

Reviewer: ElizabethLynn Signed [Report This]

Oh, Shan.  This is funny and so damned hot I might die.

What a treat! 



Author's Response:

No dying, missy! Don't you have a fic in the works?

Thanks, Beth ;)

Reviewer: gotkona Signed [Report This]

So glad you added to this. Loved it before but it is better now. ;)

Author's Response:

Glad it's an improvement! I kinda felt like I'd left it unfinished before. Thanks, gotkona :)

Great conclusion to this fic. I love it when things come full circle...and Jim's insecurity was just touching.

Author's Response: Thanks, Luna! I love the full-circle thing, too, and probably use it too much in fic, but hey - this is fantasy, is it not? :)

Reviewer: Jen74 Signed 10 [Report This]

My inner monologue...

Oh, I see Shan moved this fic over here.  I always liked it.  Wait a minute.  How come there are so many reviews so soon?  I just checked this a few hours ago.  Actually, this has been at MTT for awhile.    Oh, SNAP!  There is a new chapter!

Sprained wrist ensues from moving mouse to fast to click on the story.

 

And it was good :)



Author's Response:

*sends aspirin for wrist*

Thanks for sharing that, Jen74, made me grin like an idiot. Glad you liked :)

Reviewer: Colette Signed [Report This]

Hooray for Jim reaping the benefit of his own wisdom. Especially like: his satisfaction being so focused on hers. And also, the idea of him withering on the vine, then having a second bloom just from what she says to him? Now, that's erotic.

Author's Response:

Hooray! And yes - I imagine that as potent as the silences are between these two, their words have the potential to be even more powerful. Thanks, Colette :)

Reviewer: NeverEnoughJam Signed [Report This]

Okay, I hauled myself out of my cave after THREE people emailed me to come and look at this, and BOY am I glad I did. You know I've been dying for another chapter of this, and this was perfect.

We just get it. Without the noise.

Damn. Do they ever. 

Turns out, his neighbor does have a dog.

LOL! And I bet that dog needs a cigarette.

The only suggestion I'd make for improvement (not that improvement is needed) would be to say that I SO enjoyed hearing Jim's thoughts in Chapter 1, that I'd love to hear more of them here. Or her thoughts, either one. I mean that there's plenty of dialogue here, and that's great, but I think hearing their inner thoughts might have added another dimension to this. 

On the other hand, maye it doesn't need that, if their dialogue is the same as their conversation:

"...Roy was never able to read me like you can." She shrugs. "I had to make it obvious when he was in the right... zone. You know?"

That line says SO much about these two.

Thanks for this, nomadshan. Wonderful, as always. Going back to the cave now...



Author's Response: Hey, thanks, NEJ - and yay for constructive criticism! I'll have another look at it later and see what I think. :)
