For the Caught Red Handed and "Nobody knows" Challenges. Sometimes you're so distracted that you get careless and what you think is a big secret isn't such a secret at all. :)
10 Oooh. That last one was kind of mean to Roy. I mean, I do think he cares about Pam.
But overall, such fun!
10 I wasn't really criticizing, just reacting.
I forgot to say last time--I can't express how much I love the "Vince & Jen" vs. "Brad & Angelina" exclusive sequence.
That's totally OK! It just always amazes me how things can be interpreted. That is why 9 times out of 10 I prefer books to movies. The way I see something rarely gets translated to screen the same way.
And thanks! ;) I might read US Weekly and People religiously.
Might. :)
There are secrets even the closest couples don't share.
10 Very pretty, very painful. The bittersweet realness is great.
5 The idea here is really cute, but Pam seems to speak about her feelings for Conan really quickly (asking him to stay). She's never voiced her feelings for Jim. There are also some formatting issues and typos that could use some work.
9 Adorable! I love Jim telling her to "make something up".
Author's Response: Thank you! So glad you liked it!
Sometimes Pam's a tad insecure. Jim loves her anyway. Extremely mild spoilers/speculation for S3. Nothing like that MySpace debacle. ;)
9 Yay, fluff! I definitely think that's a huge part of Pam's problem--she doesn't think she's good enough for Jim, that she deserves anything better than Roy.
And I love Jim when...I just love Jim.
I absolutely agree. And I love Jim too. So much I'm thinking of camping out at Rockefeller Center next week when John and Jenna are there for the Today Show.
Except I'm a little afraid they might have to call security on me. I'm not sure I can trust myself not to squee like a freaking schoolgirl. :) Not that there's anything wrong with that....
Pam didn't marry Roy but for a while there we weren't quite sure.
8 Hah. My favorite is definitely the last one.
Author's Response: Mine too - but it blurred real life and fanfic a tad too much. I still think #5 can work as it is now. LOL!
9 So cute! I love the Christmas one, probably because it's my favorite time of year!
Author's Response: Mine too!! Glad you liked it!
9 This is so sweet. I do think that the date-setting was some kind of turning point for Pam, so if Jim had made his move earlier, she might have responded better.
Author's Response: That's probably true. I think he did wait a little too long, but at least he told her at all (go Jim!). Thanks so much for reading!
7 Very nice, especially for a first time. I would definitely advise you to get a beta reader. I would be willing, if you want.
Author's Response: Thank you so much, I do really need a beta. I would really appreciate your help to bounce ideas off of and edit.
9 Very nice. I love the reveal, and that Pam makes him ask "right"!
Author's Response: Hee! Poor Jim. He was so sure of himself but in the end it got the best of him. Glad you liked it!
What happened before and after the little scene in Jim's bedroom in "E-Mail Surveillance"?
9 "Friends do that kind of thing, right?"
LOL, Pam totally would tell herself that--anything to avoid the truth, right?
This was a great little snippet, thanks!
Jim and Pam are together. They have a fight.
9 The fight seems very real--how often do fights like that have important causes?--and I love how they make up, of course!
8 Whoa, what's with Darryl being part of the Mafia or something all of a sudden? :-P
This is fun--I hope she remembers Jim soon!
8 Tee hee. This was hilarious! Great fun.
Author's Response: Ha- can you picture Roy doing the chicken dance? That'll teach him...
What Jam's first moments might have been. Based off a spoiler from the Season 2 DVD.
8 Tee hee. Very cute. Love the ham and cheese sandwich.
10 Oooh, I love this. The second one was absolutely heartbreaking, but the fifth one made up for it! All of them were so creative.
Author's Response: Thank you! Once the idea for one of them popped into my head, the rest just flew out. Glad you liked it!
Angela and Madge have more in common than they think.8 This is so cute! I never thought I'd say that about Madge and Angela together, but it is. And funny, too.
Author's Response: Thanks, Lissa! These two are deceptively alike :)
Inspired by a certain deleted scene from the Client. 9 Oooh, poor Jim. Pam totally should have seen how perfect they were right then! Stupid denial.
Well, the DVDs have given us all a wealth of new inspiration....so here's my being undisciplined and giving in. :o) Right now, I'm planning to cover Jim's talking head in "The Client," the Sasha story, Jim visiting the BB online from the Pochonos, and I'd also like to revisit "The Secret" in light of some of what JK said on the commentary. Squee!

Poor, poor Jim.
Author's Response: Oh me. I feel as though I should warn you - if you thought this was bad....? Guh. Wait until you see the expression on John Krasinski's face.
10 Of course Jim would be the best babysitter ever! Jim = hot, but Jim + kids = hottest.
Author's Response: Hee hee. Tell me about it. Don't you wish we could write scenes and then force him to act them out? (Wait....that sounded really dirty. I swear I didn't mean it that way - though it is a thought.....) :O) Thanks for the review!
10 Awww, that was adorable! And we totally don't mind your long-winded-ness.
I love the beet salad! And Jim suggesting that the pine nuts be toasted--something about that just makes me smile.
Spoilerish for various S2 DVD deleted scenes. Their first date was a date that...wasn't. Eventually though they finally got the hang of it.
9 So sweet! That's one of my favorite scenes of the two of them.
Author's Response:
Mine too. I can just see them going grocery shopping together when they finally get together.
Sigh.
9 So sweet, and so true! They could never really be "just friends".
Author's Response: Not after last May - that's for sure. :) Thanks Lissa!
9 Oh, Jim. It hurts. The first part of the date was amazing, and then to be blindsided like that...! I hurt for him.
Author's Response: I know. Trust me. I didn't want to write it. Really I didn't. It just happened. So sad - isn't it? :(
