Oh, they’re so soft and natural with one another. It. Is. Adorable.
“Better than some boring office job right?” Too funny. And to top it off with a Dwight impersonation in a world where they don’t even really know Dwight - perfection.
Ugh. When Pam took that call and then said boyfriend... I’m with Jim, that is less than ideal news.
That last paragraph. Did you take some inspiration from John on Office Ladies? Oh Jim...
Author's Response: Yes I did! I’m so glad you noticed. Thank you so much, and I’m also really glad you picked up on the boring office job dialogue, I just couldn’t resist.

I was hoping for a single Pam in this AU. But alas, Roy’s in the picture. Looking forward to reading how this plays out
Author's Response: Unfortunately Roy crashes the party, yeah. Thank you for reading! :)

A boyfriend is easier to ditch than a fiance. I love the potential of her and Jim's relationship with that status already. I love this Brooklyn/coffee shop feeling so much. I can't wait for the next update!
Author's Response: It is, so thankfully it won’t take many years! Thank you :)

I'm glad it's not that kind of story, but I do respect the choice to give Pam the boyfriend she has in the show (well, fiance but you do you). I really liked this--great work on Jim's internal monologue, it's very effective.
Author's Response: It’s more easy going than having to plan out leaving a fiancée and all your wedding plans, so that’s why I decided against it. Thank you!

Oh, I was just getting comfortable, liking this confident, dream pursing Pam and Jim and Roy (I'm assuming) has to burst my bubble!
Truly, though, I'm loving the setting , how they're meeting up and the little sprinkles of Dwight! Looking forward to the next chapter.
Thanks for writing!
Author's Response: Haha the little sprinkles of Dwight! That’s my favourite. Unfortunately, Roy had to sneak in there :(
Thank you so much!

The banter was great. I would have been really mad if she was already Pam Anderson; lucky us she doesn't have a ring yet... maybe.
Looking forward to where you go from here!
Author's Response: Thank you! I was actually worried about the banter, it was taking me a while to get right. Yeah, I was thinking about how I would’ve felt reading ‘Pam Anderson’ and it would’ve broken my heart.

"He didn’t mind that people knew he was with her."
Oh my god I love that. So sweet and heartbreaking. I'm interested to see what New York Roy is like! And what their story is. I'm glad that you didn't make her last name Anderson :)
Author's Response: Thank you! New York Roy is... well... we’ll see ;) I’m also very glad I didn’t make her last name Anderson

Uug, that stings. Here I am hoping that Pam's single and she and Jim can just be happy. Though there is a big difference between boyfriend and fiance so that's good.
Anyway, up until the friend-zoning, it was all really sweet. Clearly there are sparks between the two of them. So in that regard that does feel very much like canon. I'm curious to see how they'll continue any form of relationship without being together in an office all day every day.
Great writing. Really looking forward to where we go from here.
Author's Response: Yeah it’s much much easier to separate from a boyfriend rather than a fiancée, which is important because I didn’t want this story to be too heavy. Thank you!

Oh man, I felt just as crushed as Jim. I was so hoping it wouldn't be a boyfriend. You wrote that beautifully. I love this story, this AU you've created. I'm hoping things turn around for him soon. Maybe he gets a chance to write? Does she drunk dial him? I cannot wait to see what you come up with!
Author's Response: Oh thank you! Jim’s got plans, so things’ll be looking up for him soon :)
