Oh, jinxy -- this is really sweet! I was wondering if Ed was Ed Truck -- he died when Jim was in Stamford, so that is perfect. (I guess he got started on his wings right away, huh?) Can't wait to see what happens in Scranton. Where the Real Jim belongs. Or never was. Or something.
Author's Response: Lisahoo!! Thank you so much for the review (I didn't plan on that rhyming). I am glad you are liking it.

Oh, I hope we learn what Pam thinks!
I know my life would be much sadder if Jim Halpert didn't exist. Oh my God! I got referenced in the beginning notes! I feel so special! Finally, my excessive knowledge of useless things has served me well. :D
This continues to be a great read, I can't wait to see more!

Another great chapter. Ah, I can't wait to see Scranton without Jim. I'm loving this story, please update soon!

Wow. I just stumbled upon this story and I already love it. It's such an interesting idea! I think I might be a fangirl. *cough*
Anyways, I'm really intrigued. Everything about this story seems to draw me in. Your writing style is very unique - I love the phrasing you use. It seems very poetic at times.
And the way you write Jim is absolutely spot-on. His dialogue is fantastic, his thoughts are great, and all of his actions are so true to the character that I can almost visualize them.
The way you write Stamford-Jim deserves a paragraph of its own. I really think you're doing a great job! Stamford-Jim is so different than Scranton-Jim, and I can definitely tell. Some differences are really obvious, but I'm drawn to the more subtle ones. I like that you still make him humorous, but in more of a bitter way (“Again with the name?” Jim muttered softly as he turned back around.) It makes the story seem very real-sounding, and just leaves me wanting more.
Oh my. Please excuse that long, rambling review. I'll save everything else I have to say for the next chapter. I hope you update soon!
Author's Response: Thank you so much! I really appreciated your review! I hope you like the next chapter!

All the references? But there are so many!
Well, I'm tired so I'm just going to guess on a couple, seeing as I haven't seen this movie in a good two years.
1. The wet Tom Sawyer book
2. The old car
3. The waitress's name?
4. Angels have to earn their wings
5. "I wish I'd never been born at all" - That one's obvious.
That's all I've got. x]
Can't wait for you to keep writing! I will keep reading!
Favorite quote:

Author's Response: Nice job! You got a lot of the references! I'm impressed! I am glad you're liking the story!

It's hilarious that you used Ed as his angel. I love this, please keep writing.

I'm really really enjoying this, and it is hillarious that you have Ed Truck as "Clarence". A small note, though- I'm finding it really distracting to read all of your dialog in italics. I keep thinking that the italics indicate thoughts rather than spoken words, and it is a little confusing. I would hate for a formatting choice to dissuade anyone from reading this really great story!
Author's Response: Thanks the for advice on the italics. I changed it for this next chapter so I hope it's easier! Thanks for the review!

Jinxcoke! Yay. New!Fic.
A Wonderful Life is one of my favorites as well...and the end ALWAYS makes me cry no matter how many times I watch it. Seriously, I am that much of a sap.
A life without Jim? Oh no. My worst nightmare. :) I'm really looking forward to reading this, it's a nice little Christmas present. You have a great set up, poor Jim is in a bad place right now, just like George. I can't wait to see who your Clarence is and how he turns him around. Exciting!
Author's Response: Thanks Elle! Hopefully the new chapter will be up soon!

This is beyond awesome. It's a Wonderful Life is my favorite Christmas movie, and I've often thought if they ever remade it that JK would be the best man for the Jimmy Stewart role.
Now you're giving us Halpert in that role? Brilliant. I can't wait for the next chapter.
Author's Response: Thank you jazzfan! I really appreciate reviews from you!

Ooh! I love that movie, too, and I am absolutely thrilled to see where you take this story. Jim was seriously depressed when he left Scranton- it is the perfect scenario for this plot. Just, yay! And beyond the set-up, you have a few really nice lines in this chapter that set the tone. Keep it up!
Author's Response: Thank you so much! It means a lot coming from a great writer like yourself!
