Story Notes:

Disclaimer: Original Office characters are lovingly borrowed from their creators. No harm intended. Chapter subtitles from Faith in Spring by Uhland. The title comes from the song of the same name by Simon and Garfunkle. This fic pretty much exists because that song came up on shuffle. Inspiration comes from the most surprising places.

 

Author’s Note (sorry – rambling for a moment): One of my festschrift prompts was “Mose’s first time off the farm.” I actually started writing the Jim/Pam prompt I was given, but the above mentioned song sparked my imagination, mingled with Dwight’s line about Mose having nightmares ever since the storm and this is what resulted. This was slated for a late February post, except real life became a priority for a while and it took me a while to get back to writing. Here it is at last. A cookie for anyone who makes it through all 10,000 words.

Lastly, my endless gratitude goes out to angryhaiku, because she endured a million bizarre emails about Mose and the Schrute family. She is a heroic and selfless beta.
