I would never throw garbage at you!
Shame on those who do or would! :P
I would wait for you to finish, even if it takes you years! :P
I am a slow writer too. :D
Really great story and in the words of Pam "Awesome"!

Hey, me again.

I just noticed the Moondance ref...forget The Kinks and black Labs, now I'm certain you've infiltrated my head. That's long been one of my internal soundtracks when I write certain J/P scenes. Dang. (Do you know his song Natalia?Totes in my head the entire time I was writing my recent fic, One down...) Just thought I'd give a cyber high-five over the power of old Van ;-)



Author's Response:

Well, maybe brain infiltration is *my* secret power.  Sadly, this power is actually less awesome than it appears, as it seems to be relegated strictly to Office-related material.  Oh well.

And yeah, isn't Moondance amaaaazing? (/Kelly) Apparently the power of old Van is far-reaching, since I believe Sweetpea also said Moondance was one of *her* favorites when I floated it as a chapter theme song.  I too do the internal Jim/Pam soundtrack while writing (well, and not-so-internal, since in my infinite coolness I often put a song on repeat while writing).  I've gone through a few, but I really seem to be stuck on Landslide by Fleetwood Mac for the fragile romantic scenes, and 6 Underground by the Sneaker Pimps if seduction is on the agenda.  The chapter titles for Shift generally come from whatever song I've been listening to obsessively during that chapter -- though I try to make them actually relevant as well... with varying degrees of success. ;)

Hm, I must read this "One Down" you speak of...

Yeah, you need to update sooner...and add a little more of what was in the last chapter. You know what I'm talking about. ;)

Author's Response:

Who? What? I have no idea of which you speak, malaz. ;)

Well, I'll do what I can :)

You know I just re-read this story the other day and I was disappointed that it wasn't finished, so yay for an update today!

Love them spending the day in NYC and then coming "home" to Scranton. I'm interested to see where you're going with the Roy appearance. Great job!

I'm really enjoying your story, and now you've thrown quite a new glitch in with Roy. I can't wait to see what happens next.

(love Moondance, too, though I prefer the Grady Tate version)

Please keep writing.

Ok first of all, it's wonderful to see you back writing here. I'm a big fan of your stuff :)

Second, cliff hanger much?! I love it though, I was all giddy and loving this story but now I am still giddy and loving this story, with added impatience for more.

This makes me want to be in New York with my Jim. If only I could find him...

Yes! Since it was apparently partly my pestering superpowers (there's Super Girl, Wonder Woman and now, Nudnick Girl ;-) that got you going again, I must admit - it was worth the wait - and it's a rare WIP I'd say that about.

The wake-up scene is so warm and intimate and natural -  just the right tone after your last scorching chapter. I especially loved Jim realizing how long Pam has reciprocated his feelings via her remembering small things he's told her, maybe years before - so affirming. (But are you trying to kill me with your choice of details? Jim is so right about Ray Davies and I have black labs - kryptonite, I tell you.) Also really liked Jim's awkward uncertainty about how to 'be' - what he can expect once they returned to Scranton - that whole scene is just spot on. And so very sweet. Now I want them to go upstairs and smooch, and here comes freaking Roy?!?! Dang, sister...way to introduce a little tension. I'm riveted and waiting.

Ooh, transition to 'normalcy' -- and dealing with Roy.  This sounds promising.  So happy to see that you're back!

Lovely to have you back, thirtypercent!  I re-read the last chapter just to get back on track, and it reminded me that I must have read that chapter dozens of time before your "hiatus."  Loved this update and I hope you can add to it soon--especially with that ending!  I suspect I'm going to be reading this from the very beginning at some point today : )

What a mean way to end a chapter. Not nice at all. I really miss this story...please keep it up.

Author's Response: Thanks, ISayOye.  I'll do what I can!

This is one of those scenes that just leaves you speechless. Take all the time you need between updates if this is the payoff! I'm sorry I didn't review this story earlier, because it's just so heartfelt and real. Excellent stuff! :D

Oh, I'm not worried. I forsee happy times for these two...No? Wait, I forgot who's in Stamford. No, you wouldn't. Would you? I definitely see Jim doing and saying these things. Well done. By the way, was it really her Dad on the phone?

Ok =, how did I miss this one. I am extremely happy about seeing it commented on the boards today, so thanks for that. Anyhow, love it so far. Very visual and intriguing. Love the way you space it as well. Easy to read, and of course, the subject makes you want more. I love that it's just his fantasy in the shower, but it makes even more exciting hoping that you will make become reality. On to the next chapter.

Guh...you broke my brain with this one, thirtypercent. Holy amazing. And also, such a sweet, real, genuine vein that runs through. I cannot wait to see what's coming next (ooooooooh, that's what she said!), but I hope it involves some afterglow!

Yes, it certainly was a big one and I'm so glad to see it posted.  It was so great to see Pam being free with her feelings and Jim being rewarded (ahem) for his patience.  But what happens when they go back home?  I can hardly wait to find out! :-*

Great story.  Really enjoy your portrayal of Jim here, not a lot of girls (I presume) really kind of get his emotions or probable emotions.  Really well done.

I'll say it was a big one! wow!....There was something so interesting about this chapter. You managed to have the tension mount in this way that started off really sweet and ended up very, very HOT. Nice work.

how you take it from angsty to romantic to oh so steamy to funny in one half a chapter is beyond me but you do it beautifully (TWSS)

seriously, loved this so much. and the tassled loafers bit had me laughing out loud.

cant wait for more!

Thirty, I've loved this story from the start, and this was such an amazing chapter--so worth the wait.  It was hot and romantic and awkward : ) Loved it.
