The review below says everything I could want to- I'd just like to second all of it. I loved all of them- especially Ryan and Dwight. Theirs were both more true than had to be written. And Jim's- my goodness. Thank you for spacing the thoughts, because it felt so right. Just scrolling, I fel  shocked at what she said. So wonderful!

Do you write for the show? Because I've spent many too many hours here reading fanfic here, god knows why, and even the most emotionally satisfying stuff- a lot of it feels like a different sort of Pam/Jim love story. It feels like someone else's names could be there, if not for all the TWSS's. And that's great. But this just felt like watching season four weeks in advance, but better, because you talked about the cameras (which I always love). Karen was sympathetic, thank god, the word 'banter' was blissfully absent, a green Toby, perfect Dwight... I could go on about all those genius moments you put in. The music, the movies. The very reasonable awkwardness and misunderstandings. Jim's tone was perfect. (Now I'm starting to get embarrassed at how profoundly I'm gushing.) But I can't overstate how wonderful the whole story is. Pitch perfect, deeply satisfying, touching work. Congratulations!

Date: September 26, 2007 Title: Chapter 5: If the hell that is Dunder Mifflin hadn't intervened...

Is this a nod to California Stars? Because if it is, and you've made a subtle, effective allusion to a great song that's kind of canonish and perfect- I heart you. Forever and ever.

 What's that thing Michael says, when Lazy Scranton comes on (!), about how he forgot there was an A+++? Congratulations. This story feels more right the more I think about it. There's humor! Funny humor! And they actually thought about how it might be bad to just jump into the sack. That's ruined a lot of stories.

 

Sorry for a ramble. Gold medal! 



Author's Response: Yay gold medal!!!!!! And an A+++!!!!! I heart you for this review!  And interestingly no I don't know California Stars, so I guess I accidentally alluded to something amazing and now I have to go look it up.  ;-)  Thank you so much for the review! It made my day!!

Summary: Past Featured Story

Michael's looking for a long lost relative - with (hopefully) hilarious results.  Set S4ish - NO SPOILERS - with a healthy dose of a blissful Jim and Pam because I simply can't help myself.

So, so funny! The Job intro + alcohol = totally believable. And that thread? CREEPS. ME. OUT. Sometimes I make the mistake of clicking because I think it'll be about, y'know, acting or something. And then it's just this, except the Internet is the Greyhound. I'm loving the series. May I request- sweet drunken Pam?

Author's Response: Haha, well I certainly didn't mean to offend anyone who likes the Treehouse Annex thread. I was just making a joke about all the J-Kras lust. Sweet drunken Pam....or at least, drunken silly Pam is coming. I believe, if you don't count some other smaller characters (David Wallace, Marjorie)...that Oscar and Pam are the only two I haven't done a chapter about. That is mainly because I was saving Pam for the finale of the series, but I'm not going to do that anymore. So you should see her soon...Thanks for the review Ardens...and be careful in the Treehouse.

Last night's premiere was full of so much Jammy (or PB&J) goodness that I had to let it out somehow.

Obviously very spoilierish if you haven't seen the episode yet.

Oh, this is so good, and I'm so glad it's not a oneshot. I like that they don't say much, and I especially like seeing Jim encounter Karen's 'you should date!' thing. And him knowing Dwight's number by heart? Excellent touch. Excited to see where it'll go.

Author's Response: Thanks Ardens :) When I was watching the episode I was just waiting for Karen to pop up and say something to Jim about Pam and Roy. But it didn't happen so I decided to make it happen. Hee!

Can't wait can't wait, chapter three! Are fuzzy navels a real drink? Wait, don't tell me, I want to believe in them. And the dialogue is so nicely done. And they should probably talk sometime, no matter how each avoids it- ah, leave it to Dwight to bring people together, that's one of my favorite devices ever. In short: amazing, particularly the impersonating a crisis counselor=felony bit. Gold.

Author's Response:

Thanks Ardens! Dwight is pretty much the best plot device in existence, and the crisis counselor thing was soooo fun to write.

Oh, and fuzzy navels are real drinks. It's peach schnaps, orange juice, and sometimes people add a splash of vodka. Deeeelicious. But very girly :)

Summary: Season Four continues! The Dunder-Mifflin computers crash, sending Jim and Pam on very different missions. A script-based episode fic.

Beautiful. I hope you realize this is my show now. Thursdays? This'll help the sad times.

Author's Response: I know, this is going to truly be the winter of our discontent. Hopefully things will improve soon. Thanks for the review and kind words Ardens.

I really love this idea. I didn't, however, like some of the earlier sentences, just because they were so aware of Pam and Jim's Torrid Love (Alliance and Basketball being the worst). A minimalist reading of Pam has to address a transition into those sorts of thoughts. But the one for Hot Girl was really interesting and also my favorite. It's about her and small revelations in smaller moments. (I'm pretty pigeonholed, far as fic goes.) Looking forward to more! And congratulations on posting your first fic- I've been too cowardly to do so yet, and I hope the criticism I offered was friendly enough.
