MEMBER'S CHOICE - Katy and Jim are still dating during Jim’s “Email Surveillance” BBQ. When Pam sees them together it lights a fire under her.Yayyyyy!!!! The smut finally! Haha well I shouldn't really say finally, because you've been an awesomely fast updater and I liked the build of the chapters up to this point. Really, really great writing. I was so happy when he told her he loved her :)
Jim and Pam are Jim and Pam, only...not really.Woah! I started reading this and thought it wouldn't be my style, but by the end I was TOTALLY sucked in. This is awesome! I think it's just weird enough of a premise to be totally right haah and I love this! Can't wait for the update
Author's Response: lol oh good I can definitely deal with just weird enough! I'm happy it turned out to be your style after all ;-) Thanks for the review!
Yes!! I absolutely have fallen in love with this story and I was just about to go to bed tonight when I thought "okay well I'll just check one last time for an update..." and you had updated!! I can't tell you how excited I was hehe... Awesome chapter. It's getting goooooood :D
Guhhhh
Suchhhh an awesome chapter!! I LOVE hot!JAM, but I also adored the bit of Pam at home being all cutesy and romantic thinking about Jim. I haven't reviewed in a while, but this is such a fantastic story and I always look forward to your updates!
Looking forward to the....you know ;)
WOW. Just....wow. What an AMAZINGLY awesome transformation you've had Jim go through. Talk about humming and thumping - I could literally feel the electricity of this chapter as I read it. You are such an amazing writer, I just completely lose myself in your story everytime you update. Awesome job!
Oh my God this was amazing. I thought it was so beautiful how you structured the sentences, and really shocking there at the end. Awesome!
Oh wow this looks to be REALLY good! I loved how you wrote the awkwardness between them at first and how you could kind of feel it slowly lifting as they talked. I'm really excited for you to continue this!
Author's Response: I'm really excited to continue!! Not too much longer now. I'm so glad you liked it and that the awkwardness came through. It was exactly how I wanted it to read. thanks so much!
Imagine Jim’s confession on Casino Night never happened and Pam actually made it down the aisle on June 10th . . . only to say “I don’t”.Awesome chapter! I thought the JAM interaction was perfect for the moment - not too maudlin but definitely with serious undertones. I'm excited for your update!
Oh wow this is such an awesome story!! I got SERIOUS chills when they first got to the hotel room ;) hot stuff haha! In all seriousness though, I just am obsessed with the whole premise of this story - it's so different and cool. I'm really excited to see where it goes next!
Author's Response: chills is great! thank you so much. i really like utilizing a premise that i haven't seen before - so i'm glad you like it. next ch. will be up soon...
Oh my God I love this! First, jim is an adorable drunk! Second, did I mention I love this?! What a fantastic way to go about a moment we've all dreamed of for Jim and Pam. I really really liked this premise and how well you captured each of the characters! Can't wait for the next bit
NOW COMPLETE!!!
"Jim, why don't you tell Pam how you really feel?"
Jim and Pam deal with the stuff that comes with being on a hit show...talk shows, radio call-ins, and press junkets. They say there's no such thing as bad publicity, but is that really the case? Watch as Jim and Pam deal with being in the public eye and under the thumb of manipulative network producers. The story is told through interviews, transcripts, web pages and photos.
Oh my God!!!! The end of this update gave me chills, man! I'm just so taken with this story, I get SO excited whenever I see updates :)
Beautifully written chapter. I especially like how you've explained the issue of cameras being at "promotional" events - it really seems like you've thought all this through and it all checks out nicely. I'm babbling now, but want I really want to say in my review is thank you SO much for this awesome story, and I'm veryyyyy excited to see what happens next!
Niiiiiiiiiiiiice [/Kevin]. I love where this story is going! It's such a cool premise, and I love seeing the sort of cocky/asshole-Jim-with-a-sweet-underside you've got going here ;)
totally looking forward to the next update!
Thank you! Sorry for the delayed response...I hope you are still reading it!
I heart Jim's sweet underside.
OMG how awesome was that?! I love the idea of Pam turning the tables on Jim like that....sweet!
Wow! Awesome fic! I think you captured JAM perfectly here, I loved it.
This was really cool! I wish I had ideas like that in the shower! Seriously though, that was very cool. I've never been a big Ryan fan, but for some reason recently I'm really drawn to the more human, empty side of Ryan that your fic centers on. The ending was cool too!
8 Awesome chapter! The end was a nice surprise for me because I, too, had always thought Jim said "very nice" for the longest time (until I realized he was saying "3 nines" in one of my 34242 rewatches of that scene). I love this fic!
Author's Response: Thank you! I\'ve watched that scene at least 34243 ;) times, and I had it all written, and then I went to verify when, exactly, he said \"very nice\" on OfficeQuotes, and I was like \"\'three nines\'? SERIOUSLY?\" But, yeah. Thanks again for your kind words!
Wow, I really liked this. Angry!Jim was definitely a change, but I think you pinned his emotional turmoil down pretty darn well and I was riveted the whole time. Very cool.
What a perfect, beautiful story! I just love the way you write JAM - so perfectly flawed and just natural....normal. I love your work so much, looking forward to more of your stories!
Is there life and love after Jam?I just picked up this story today, and I'm so glad I did! You're such an amazing writer, I'm totally invested in this story now! Personally, while the JAM stuff makes me very sad, I'm kind of starting to be a fan of Emily and Jim. Usually I'm very anti anything but Jam in fanfic, but something about the way you're writing Emily makes me want to see more of their relationship. Thanks so much for this and I can't wait for the next update!
Author's Response: Thanks nandance. I just really wanted to explore a relationship for Jim that was simple and easy and without all the horrific angst. I still love Pam, but . . . well, this is just a \"what if\". So glad you\'re enjoying it, and thanks for reading and reviewing!
OH WOW! What a fantastic chapter. Am I correct in assuming that the BOLD type is actually Jim telling this whole intricate story of his and Pam's downfall to Emily? I sure hope so, because that is such a cool idea and a really neat twist. I love, by the way, the last sentence. It's really haunting.
p.s. about the deleted dvd scene: WORD. so cute!!!
Whoa!! Surprise indeed! That completely threw me for a loop there! I have to say, this is probably the first time I've ever been upset to see Pam popping up in a story where Jim's in another relationship. What can I say, you've turned me into a Jimily (or should it be Emim?) fan!! Anyways, I'm excited to see where you take this. On a random sidenote, I hadn't read your disclaimer at the top about this epilogue coming in parts and only knew that it was titled EPILOGUE, so when I first finished the chapter I thought that was the end of the entire fic! Almost gave me a heart attack ;)
Author's Response: Wow, I\'m glad I accomplished my goal of getting people invested in Jimily. It was a challenge, so I\'m relieved it worked. Thanks so much for reading and reviewing!
Ahh I'm so excited to see this story updated! And what an update it was!!! I really can't wait for more!
Author's Response: Me too! I promise I will not leave you hanging like last time.
It's been three years since Jim accepted the promotion to New York. After two years of silence, Pam sends Jim a gift.
Very cool premise! I really liked the note from Pam; it seemed very much in character and a lot like I would hope Pam would sound a few years down the line after being away from Jim and on her own. Can't wait for the update!
Awesome story! I'm really excited to see where you go with this, looking forward to your update!
Oh my gosh! What an amazingly powerful story. I am honestly blown away by how you've put this together...and what an ending! I'm so excited for the update!
Author's Response: Thank you, you\'re too kind. I\'m really glad the structure worked. The next chapter is more or less finished, I\'ll have it up soon. Thank you for leaving feedback!
