this is incredible. i don't recall anyone ever writing michael so well, or so accurately! i can actually hear him in my head with each sentence, the characterization is amazing. "zing-ah!" classic. and their humor! man i love their humor, but it is sooo weird and goofy and specific and silly and sooo nailed through the use of chandler bing and seinfeld and Alf and Michael asking who it was that moved to France! God. That is such an awesomely excellent Michael thing to say. Just nuts. And you've totally conveyed his sweet sweet ignorance, which is the cutest thing ever. Sooo completely loving it.

Michael and Holly are so perfect together.  Thank you for such a great job expanding on their relationship.  You nailed their voices.  I'm positive they will eventually end up happily together just like our other couple.

I loved this little view into how Michael and Holly came to be.  It's spot on and in character and the references to all the things they found commonly funny was fantastic.  The bit about her mom was particularly well done.

What a great way to start this series - you really captured  Michael/Holly's patter. It's almost like they're scatting off each other - in some kind of syncopated dorky jazz ;-) And your ref to the improbable, but enthusiastic, French love for Jerry Lewis is the perfect analogy for how they appreciate each other. Really fun - and bittersweet now that she's gone.

I'm a little afraid of how well you've written Holly here.  I loved seeing how she doesn't quite fit with 'normal' people.  I really like how you took Michael's ripping up her counting Crows tickets (clever, title, BTW) and actually made it make sense.  Well, to Michael anyway.  ;o)

What a grand start to this summer project, sophia!  I'm always excited to see a fic from you and really enjoyed this one.  Your characterizations were just great.  Oh, and extra points for the Counting Crows references.  You really made my day :) 



Author's Response: Thank you so much! And haha, I had to reference the Crows, after Michael and Holly were so excited about them. :)

Oh Mike and Holly. Gone too soon. They were amazing together... in that way you kinda gotta turn your head and look through your fingers.
I look forward to more Season 5 from you!

Author's Response: Thank you! I was totally heartbroken when Holly went away, since she and Michael often out-cuted Jim and Pam in their auggggghawkward! way.
