'Pam got up from her desk determined to replace the disappointment on Jim's face with a stupid lopsided grin.'
That line made me 'awww' :)
Also, poor Toby. Maybe, I'm just too 'Toby sensitive,' but I caught there a hint... or it's just me seeing what I wanted to see?
Also, Dwight being Dwight. Perhaps, I get used to fanon 'friendly Dwight' too much and forgot that he could be insensitive and harsh :(
The chapter is lovely, and I'd like to see what happens next!

Author's Response:

Glad I got an 'aww'! Thanks!

Definitely a Toby hint dropped there, good on you for picking up on it. 

Dwight could be quite harsh and insensitive at times on the show, but hopefully Pam and Dwight will be able to make amends and friendly-Dwight can make an appearance.

Thanks for reviewing! I've just started writing the next chapter, so hopefully it'll be out later give or take 2-7 hours.

This chapter was lovely what with Jim encouraging Pam, both gently and then a little not so gently. And then, Toby being kind of sweetly supportive in his own way. Dwight was so very Dwight. I love the idea of him insulting Pam by being fat too blunt and probably not even meaning to, and then finding himself impressed by her fierce reaction. I’m really enjoying your characterization of Pam throughout this.

Author's Response:

I'm glad you enjoyed this one, I was going back and forth on a few things here, so I'm happy to see they landed well.

Thanks for reviewing!

Love this chapter! Pam is evolving so much!
She’s also been very touchy-feely with Jim, yet she doesn’t get why Roy punched him. Our girl is very much in denial. Can’t wait to read if she finally figures things out with Jim

Author's Response:

True, but Roy didn't see most of the touchy feely. My/Roy's reasoning was A) Drunk, B) Jim looks like he's moving in on "his" girl. Pam is 100% in denail, we'll see if that gets shaken soon.

Thanks for reviewing, I'm glad you're enjoying it!

Oh, that's good. Good slap, Pam. And good gumption on asking for things too. Who knows what you could get if you ask for it...

Author's Response:

Well, of course we know what/who she could get...

I'm glad you appreciated the slap, I was going back and forth on keeping it in.

Thanks for reviewing!

Good development chapter for Pam here. I like that this time she takes Jim's advice and takes a chance. Great to see her stand up like that. As cathartic as it was to see Pam slap Dwight, it also felt a little out ofye character for me. At least in this stage in her life. Still this is a completely different character than canon Pam so changing things up a bit is ok.

I'm not sure Dwight would have that kind of reaction after getting slapped though. He just got hit in the face and the next things he's doing is looking at her butt and saying how she's a good breader?

Also Pam, be careful with acts of workplace violence like that. In canon Roy didn't even land the punch and he got fired. Something to think about is all.

Even with all that, I'm still really looking forward to more updates. Keep 'em coming.

Author's Response:

Thanks, I was concerned it would be out of character, but I went for it anyway. Admittedly I flip/flopped on it a few times before deciding to leave it in. My thought process behind it was this was a very hurtful comment and still a fresh wound for Pam, so she smacked him. Dwight's reaction was inspired by how he responds to authority, and with such a display from Pam she might show up on his radar as it were, given some comments we see in other episodes of the series. 

I'm glad that you were still able to enjoy the chapter with these events though, thanks for reviewing!
