Summary: Because when you’ve had a fantasy for four years of a petite, pale brunette dancing with you in a cream colored dress and a look of utter joy in her eyes , it’s not easy to suddenly replace her with a Mediterranean beauty who could easily wound you with the right glare. What should have happened at Phyllis' Wedding.

You're welcome for the beta. I said it before, and I'll say it again, I love the common thread between these scenarios. Your Angela is very complex!

Author's Response: :). the common thread being sad and depressing? I've gotta read your fic also, its on my list, don't worry. I loved the title, and then you got a blue ribbon!

Summary:

 

“God, Jim. There’s been an…there was an accident and…Roy came back and he got upset and…God, he shot Della Jim, Roy shot her.” And suddenly Jim’s not even breathing.

Aw, poor Roy. This love triangle hasn't been easy for him, either. I love that you've written it from the first person point of view.
Nice job!

Author's Response: Thanks, yeah, I started out in third person, but it just didn't seem to flow right. I have to say, after "The Negotiation," I felt kind of bad for Roy. Maybe he should have just hit Jim and gotten that over with.

Holy crap, that was GREAT! I didn't know what to expect, and you blew me away. You nailed Andy and Karen's voices so perfectly. I laughed aloud at "Everyone either thought I had some STD, or that I had some kind of incontinence problem, or that I was sleeping with the crazy old Russian professor. "
Hysterical!



Author's Response: Wow!  Thanks so much!  I'm really glad to hear that you thought I nailed the voices; that was really important to me when I was writing it.  And hee, I'm glad you liked the random pranks that Matt pulled on Andy in college.

Wow, what a great use to those e-mail surveys that swallow my life! I loved this, such a simple premise and it turned out to be so lovely for them! I loved this: "She looked at her painting on the wall. "You can change someone indirectly. You can try to change someone directly but probably won't turn out good in the end." She looked at the tall brunette sitting in front of her. "You change yourself and if pieces of others come along for the ride, so be it. But it's ultimately your choice.""
Nice work!

Oh, wow, this is fantastic! I really like how you didn't keep it exactly as it appeared in the show. I like that things developed differently for Jim and Lisa.

You've got a great handle on the characters and how it would play out between them. I can't wait for the last past!

Summary: Past Featured Story

"It seems odd, in the ironic, slap-in-the-face kind of way that since her incident, it’s been easier to let him go."

Something bad happens to Pam. Very Dark.

Summary: Past Featured Story

Member's Choice - “My father died, so I’ll need a few days.” She explained in an unaffected sounding voice that surprised even herself. The three other parties in the room were stunned into silence. Jim spoke first. “Jesus, Pam…” She stood with her back to him and addressed Michael as if Jim had not made a sound…as if Jim did not exist. It was the only way.

Moxie, that was just beautiful. It was a pitch perfect idea of what would be going through Pam's head.
I liked the points about not being drunk, about feeling less valued than everyone else, and the idea of her finally reaching Jim made my heart twinge. I have no idea what the finale will bring, but I hope it's in the same vein.
