What if Jim and Pam erased all memories of each other? Would they be able to start again? How would Roy and Karen react? Set post-Season Two and loosely based off ideas from the film "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind."

Someone is dead in The Office, and everyone is a suspect.

Story formerly known as Spring Cleaning.  When he realizes she's asking him a serious question there is not even a moment’s hesitation before he answers.  “Sure.  What do you need?”  Future fluff.  Spoiler free, non-fat, as light as airy spun sugar. ;)

Jim wants something and isn't quite sure how to ask.

Inspired by the finale and the seasons that preceeded it.  Enough said.

This is along the same lines as my other Away From the Cameras, in the sense that I'm exploring scenes that might have happened off-camera (or simply those that we didn't get to see).

A few things: First, I'm working on the assumption that a lot of what I wrote in the AFtC for season II stands (though I likely won't reference any of it here), up until Casino Night.  (Clearly I was quite off about what happened after the kiss...heh.)

Second, there will be flashbacks filling in the blanks of what happened immediately after CN (how long did Jim work? how did he and Pam ultimately leave things? how did she end things with Roy? how did Jim find out about her cancelling the wedding?); the flashbacks will happen largely in the chapters pre-merger (to keep things interesting for Jim/Pam fans during their physical separation).  

"So did I tell you that I play guitar?" -- Jim

Jim has a hidden talent. He knows how to play the guitar, and he uses it to his advantage.
