The bar frequented by the crew of DM Scranton is called The Almanac? Oh, I see you.
Author's Response: ;) It was a joke I could not give up.

I need a drink too, knowing that Roy is being woken up, so Jim's on the right track here.
Good to see Michael's hate for Toby carrying over here... that little bit made me laugh.
I love how conflicted Jim is here. Okay, I don't love it directly, but I love how *you're* writing it, and it's so raw and real and sometimes, pining Jim can come off as unhinged or creepy but not here. Here he's just a guy in love with his best friend. Trapped on a spaceship with her. Totally normal times. Or at least, you make them seem normal. :)
Author's Response: Just drink something better than I put in The Almanac. I'm really glad my Jim isn't coming off creepy, because I really want him to sound reasonable, just trapped and desperate. Thanks for the review!

Excellent self-analysis on Jim's part here. A much more mature version, at least in the start of the chapter, than what we see in the show. Great way to get him to start thinking with his head rather than being led with his heart in this regard.
Hopefully his trip to the Almanac won't change that to badly. Well done as always.
Author's Response: I think Jim's immaturity in canon is to a certain extent a result of having gotten out of town too quickly: it meant he didn't have to confront the consequences or implications of his actions for too long. Here he's in a different mental space because he can't get away from it. Thanks for the review!
