Jim gets fussy and Pam gets fed up.
Spoilers through The Negotiation.
“I get it now, she’s everything I’m not.” She says as a few tears slip out from beneath her lashes. His subconscious realizes at this moment that she’s unconsciously mimicking a line from the Royal Tenenbaums, one of their joint favorite films. When he replays this conversation in his mind later, this will break his heart.
My very own requisite, post-"Cocktails" fight/angst/smut fest.
I apologize to everyone who's tired of the FIGHT!ness of all these post-Cocktails stories, but I promise it's worth it. I hope. I also apologize to everyone who has already read this through Livejournal, but it took me a long time to get this site to work for me.

The documentary company needs a little help to finalize a distribution deal, so the head of the camera crew decides to recruit a mole.Jim's basketball game with the C.F.O. (not his actual initials) gets interrupted with news from what happened at Poor Richard's; he reacts accordingly.
Before, during, after (peas, waffles.) Post-Cocktails...but no fighting.This is from Karen's point of view - my attempt at getting into her head and fleshing out just what's going on there. (Perhaps I should clarify that this is decidedly not a Crazy!Karen fic.)
And while it's obviously centered on Karen, Jim and Pam are very much in the background.
It'll ultimately be a two-parter, probably no more than that. Seriously. I mean it this time.
A series of drabbles, set after Back From Vacation (with some slight spoilers) and deviating from there. Pam makes Jim face the same difficult decision (and consequences) that she had to deal with.
Each drabble is 100 words according to MS Word, so if the summary says otherwise...it's lying. :0)
When you tell me your plan, a giggle laced through your words, I have to work hard to concentrate...
A companion piece to the parking lot had an element of danger. Title taken from "Lion's Mane" by Iron & Wine. Spoilers through The Return.
What if you had to relive the worst day of your life, again and again?
Response to "Groundhog Day" challenge by nomadshan at TWOP.
A few light bits and pieces I'd accumulated (have written enough angst lately, thanks.) Since they were just languishing, I figured I'd resurrect Vignettes and send them out into the world. Each is a stand-alone, NOT a chapter in a work-in-progress, so feel free to jump in and out. (I'm thinking there will be 3-5 pieces, but will have to see how the mood strikes me.)
If I owned these characters, would I be writing this stuff? Seriously. No copyright infringement is intended.
She's been parking in the same space for years....Title taken from "The Trapeze Swinger" by Iron & Wine.
Title comes from the INXS song of the same name (the original INXS, with Michael Hutchence).
Not enough time for all that I want for you...
This is just my answer to Thursday night's angst - my attempt at an explanation of what the hell they were thinking, as well as my offering of a happy ending (TWSS!).
Lyrics and title are from Sarah McLachlan.
