Ooh I’m excited to really read some Helene moments. I think she’s an underutilized character, too, even in the show. In my head I always picture the original Helene who for whatever reason felt more like Pam’s mom than the Helene we did get to see. I’m imagining that Helene in this, too. I loved that Larissa was the first to introduce herself, and I loved the equally tongue tied reaction of Jim and Pam!

Author's Response: She's TOTALLY underutilized. I can't even find a character tag for her, which is criminal. And I also think of Helene 1.0 (so to speak); partly this is because I sometimes deny the existence of anything after a certain point in the series because I didn't love where they took it, but mostly it's because I just love what we do get to see of her at the start.

Jim’s terror at this whole meeting the mom moment is adorable. I loved the little bit of backstory around his history with previous girlfriends and his recognition that this is end game.

Helene is right - Pam does need some ridiculous in her life and it definitely needs to come from the Halpert siblings. Larissa continues to delight me - you’re definitely writing her well and even in her lightest moments, you can tell how much she loves her brother.

Author's Response: Thanks! Do let me know if Larissa starts to feel like a Mary Sue--I'm channeling a lot of my own snark into her, so I'm a little worried about that. But I'm glad you're enjoying her (and the story).
