I'm sorry I haven't left more reviews, because I have been keeping up on this. I suck - what more can I say?
This has been really interesting and great thus far, sir. I love how you've portrayed Pam and given us a peek at her life at Pratt. And your exploration of her relationship (and relations) with Alex is really well done. It's definitely a different take but in this fandom, where the same story's been told 3467654347 times (including by me), this is refreshing.
And Strong Bad? Yeah, bonus points for SB.
Author's Response:
Yep, you suck. You suck big time. We should rename you Hoover or Dyson.
I've tuned out probably 3467654311 (and growing) of the 3467654347 (and growing) same stories. You know of course my opinion on that sort of thing. In achieving my goal of being the heretic of this fandom and providing refreshing, nonconformist views I may have guaranteed myself low readership and fangirl enemies, and I'm glad that people like yourself with intellectual curiosity are still with me, at least occasionally.
Also, props to you for pointing out Strong Bad. I was hoping someone would say something about that.

I appreciate the fact that you updated so soon after all that time driving. I am pretty much a (way-too-old) squeeing fangirl, but, rather than making me cry, the Pam cheating really intrigues me. It's a new, little (if ever)-explored twist. As long as it doesn't happen on the show...then I will cry.
Author's Response: I've often said that it's probably a good thing that I'm not in charge of the show. People would be sad.

Aha -- Hitler is finally revealed. I don't know what to make of the revelation from last chapter, but I'll go along and see where you take us. This has been an entertaining story. Sorry, I'm a bit sleep deprived, too, so, lame review.
Author's Response: Sort of. The more apt metaphor will come later, but I needed this one for exposition for those who aren't up to snuff on their Adolf Hitler: the early years. Really, I only named it that because I knew there was going to be Hitler references and I couldn't think of what to name this. Of course, now I have to expand on that thought or else my title doesn't make any sense. So I've written myself into a bit of a corner. Luckily I can just use blitzkrieg to get out.

Wert, you trouble maker! I was just thinking about this fic this morning (really, I was). How is it that I'm feeling a little bad for Alex? I'm a Jim devotee, damn it! Great job incorporating Halloween, Pam's costume and the Joker into this. It's such fun (yet troubling) to read. You've reduced me to quoting the immortal Britney Spears: "gimme more." Soon?
Author's Response:
I live to cause trouble (actually, I live to make squeeing fangirls cry). Anywho, sorry for the slightly longish wait. My car was giving me problems so I didn't get back until very late on Monday night, and my head wasn't clear enough to write well on Tuesday. That's what happens when you spend 17 out of 33 hours driving.
I've seriously enjoyed incorporating as much detail from the show as possible, and tying anything I write into other parts of my story, so that it all forms an intricate web. Too bad not too many people will be reading this one because I've upset their delicate psyches what with the Pam cheating and all.
