Ooooof. The idea of Pam dealing with her unhappiness and jealousy by throwing herself into being kind to Katy is just… so very Pam, in both her natural kindness and empathy and in her fundamental inability to self-advocate and get in touch with her feelings. Good writing, but it stings.

Author's Response: Do you wonder how that might have looked in canon-universe? Because I did when I was writing it.
