I won't apologize for my stance as a Karen-sympathizer (*stop throwing things at me; I HATE the idea of her with Jim, okay?*) so I usually transfer my assessment that Karen would have been a great friend to Pam in the form of AUs. This isn't that. Just a quick glance into how Karen spent the morning following Jim and Pam's first date.   I have no claims to these characters, this show, anything slightly protected as intellectual property. I don't gain monetarily or tangibly from this.
