More Jim and Pam and their adventures in raising baby Jill!
10 Oh Lovefool, I have such high praise for you. You have a gift, seriously, your writing is spot on. I remember over the summer I would spent hours at a time reading these chapters and I'd stay up all night reading and envying your talent. I'm sure I've already told you this but you are my favorite fanfic writer of all time (and I read them a lot, not just Office ones either). This chapter was pure perfection, and you know how to write so that everything makes so much sense. I'm sad to see this end, but please continue writing more stories! I won't be able to survive without them.
10 Ahhh! Yay I'm so glad you updated, I'm a big fan of this fic. Loved this chapter, it's so real and true to the show :)
Also I'd like you to know I love how long your chapters are...the longer the better in my opinion, haha.
Author's Response: Wow, thanks for the compliment on chapter length! As a reader I like to sink my teeth into something a bit longer too.....um -- twss? -- so bad.
10 Hi there, I'm Megan. I just signed up for this place after reading this story, because I promise you that only this story could keep me wide awake, sobbing at 2 in the morning. This is incredible, I'm am truly impressed, although I'm mad at you for making me crying like a baby this late at night! LOL. I hate reading, but this story is grabbing me so tightly, I need more. I don't even know where to begin....uhm....Okay, I usually object to reading stories that are of Jim and Pam in the future, because I'm afraid the story will not match my already determined future for them (in my head, of course). But wow, I am SO glad I gave this one a try. I don't really know how to critique this, other than your breaking my heart LOL. I've read so many Jam Fictions in the past that I had to stop reading, for two reasons: 1. They were inappropriate and even though I am mature, I didn't feel comfortable reading them. or 2, the MOST important: They became unrealistic to me, I could no longer hear Jim's voice or Pam's voice as I read the dialogue, and I could no longer picture the two of them in the scenario the author created. And the reason the tell you this is the best Jam Fiction I've ever read is because I never for a second doubted that Jim or Pam would be saying these things or acting this way in the situation you created. And that, in my opinion, is the best quality a fiction could have, it brings out so much more emotion and realism and it means so much more to me. Alright, I'm not going to ramble or else you'll get bored of me already (This is my first post on this site!). But I am truly in awe of your work. Brilliant job....and don't keep me in suspense much longer!
Author's Response: I’m extremely flattered and thrilled with that you’ve taken the time to read and review my story. I just want to give you a huge hug because what you’ve said meant a lot to me. First off, sorry about the sobbing at 2 in the morning—I hope I can make up for it with lots of fluff in later chapters. Second, I’m totally with you when it comes to fanfics because I also have their future (and present—I know weird) predestined in my head. The unrealistic thing is also a big deal for me. For example, I can’t picture Jim being overly angry or Pam being overly independent. So, it really flatters me that my efforts in keeping them in character haven’t gone unnoticed, even in the scenario I’ve created. These characters and the show are very dear to me, and to know that I did okay in depicting them just sends me over the moon. I can’t thank you enough for all your kind words! This will totally help me get through the day at my job as a secretary/receptionist today! (Oh, the irony!) And I promise there will be more chapters coming your way!\r\n \r\n
10 Oh man, I'm am crying now for two reasons: because that was an incredible ending to an incredible story and because I'm so sad it's over. This was one of very few stories that I literally jumped out of my chair whenever I saw an update. And I almost forgot about it because it's been so long...but this, wow. What a way to end an such a terrific story. I never would have except that but it made so much sense. And everything you write makes perfect sense to me, something I hardly find in fanfictions.
You are an outstanding writer and this story was in my top 3 fanfictions of all time...can't wait to read more from you hopefully soon :)
Author's Response: Aww... Don't cry! If it makes you feel a little better, there's an epilogue to it. Hopefully I'll be posting it soon! I'm so glad you liked this story. And I'm really flattered by your lovely review! *blushing* I wasn't sure about it in the beginning, but I guess it worked out well! If a story strikes me again, I'll be definitely writing! Thank you so much for reading and reviewing! =)
LOVE this story! I'm excited for an update....and btw, I literally almost fell out of my chair laughing when it said "He was dead." I have no idea why, probably cause it's so direct, but I cracked up.
Author's Response: *gasp* You laughed at Toby\'s misfortune?!? Kidding, totally kidding ;o) Seriously though, thank you so much for the nice review, megakel. I\'m very happy it made you laughed :D Thanks again!
I was so confused until I read where it says "Completed: No." so there's more to it! I thought that was the whole story haha. I love it but I'm confused, update update update (even though you just posted this lol)!
Author's Response: I\'m sorry to hear that you were confused! What didn\'t you understand? I might post more to it later on! Thanks for reading and for the comment!
9 This is the best "story about nothing" since Seinfeld. You are SO good at pin-pointing how they would act in the situations you put them in, major props to you because that is a difficult task. Oh and update because I love this story a lot (:
Author's Response: Ah, megakel that's so nice of you to say! You're awesome!
That made my grin from ear to ear, and I don't think it's too much OOC either. I thought it was wonderful, excellent job..I definitely felt emotional reading that.
Author's Response: i'm so glad it got an emotional response - seeing his face whilst they walked back down the aisle did the same for me, so i'm glad the piece caught that! thanks so much for taking the time to review!
These are meaningless, short and simple ways for me to pass the time. Most of these have been sitting on the hard drive I've been cleaning out for the past couple of weeks (slowly but surely). Just pregnant Pam and baby fluff. They were all labeled "babytimes01.txt" on my computer, hence the name. Just vignettes, not necessarily chapters in order, and the rating is caution for later. Spoilers for the Delivery in the last chapter.10 So I'm a hardcore fan of this story, and that chapter was an incredible way to end it. You're an incredibly talent author, and this is definitely in my top 3 stories ever.
But quick side note, don't hate me, but I literally posted a fic and then came to read this chapter and their is something in this chapter that is in my fic too, and it's going to look like I copied you, but I promise you that I didn't! Just want to clear that up, and also it's my first fic ever so I'm really self-conscious about it haha.
Love it! And finally a chapter where they are together..I've been waiting for one haha. I hope you made '08 and '09 because I will probably squeal if you did. :)
Great writing, for all three chapters..keep it up!
Author's Response: Thank you so much, this made our day! Yes, we wrote a 2008, 2009 and 2010 chapter - they'll be up soon, I think I'm going to stagger them so there's a new chapter every day or two. I'm so glad you thought Deedldee's writing was good, I think so, too - she worked so hard on these chapters! I'll pass this on to her, and we'll be adding the next chapter soon. Thanks for dropping us a review! Let us know what you think of the next three chapters!

Jim and Pam are faced with the uncertainty of a future at Dunder-Mifflin. This is about the problems this might occur for our favorite newlyweds under these circumstances. You are just full off awesome stories, LoveFool...I love all of them. But this one especially, it feels so real and understandable and I always pictured that the buy-out thing would turn into a problem between them, just like this. I hope you're writing more, because I can't wait for more!
Author's Response: You leave such awesome, awesome reviews. Thanks so much! I'm glad you're enjoying the story. The rest is on it's way soon!
What do ulcers feel like? Because I think I have one too. Ah I can't imagine Jim's explanation for that... You are too good, I think I'm going to just sit right here and refresh the page every minute until you update.
By the way, you are a fantastic writer, your stories are most of my favorites.
Author's Response: hahaha, sorry to be keeping you waiting! And sorry for making you get an ulcer too. lol Thanks so much for reading and responding!
10 That was the first sexual scene I was able to read entirely through without feeling uncomfortable. I LOVE this story, and I was a little disappointed when I realized how it was ending ...but this was excellently written and I really enjoyed it. So bravo, to you and your incredible writing skills.
Author's Response: Megakel...I responded to someone else this same way, about the sex scene...ME TOO. I'm not gonna lie - I enjoy reading some good smut from time to time, but it often makes me uncomfortable as well. For some reason I thought it was necessary in this piece, though I've never really included it on any of my other stories on MTT. I'm glad it felt ok for you this time. :-)
Another amazing story...seriously, LoveFool? Are you just filled with incredibly stories? You have such a perfect interpretation of them which is probably why I love your stories so much, this is SO cute.
Author's Response: Wow, you're so nice to say that. Not even sure how to respond to such a sweet, sweet review. THANKS, I'm so glad you're enjoying the story.
Aw, that made me shed a tear. Especially towards the end when you said something like "cause she'll always be your baby". You're an excellent writer. Post more often! :)
"My daughter, the birth of my daughter, gave me life." - Johnny Depp. (And a bit of grief mixed in as well.) Cecelia Halpert, through her father's eyes.10 Loved that chapter. My dad grew up telling me he knows I am responsible and he always would say "I trust you to make the right decisions." Now I'm about to turn 18 and I've never done anything, not even a sip. I haven't even had a boyfriend yet. I really think you're right, that's a very effective thing to say to a teenager.
Excellent story, very realistic :)
Spoilers through the Ultimatum.
Pam comes home to a sick husband and baby after a hard, frustrating day.
I haven't been on here in months and I came on just to see if someone wrote a story about the lack of Jim in this episode- and sure enough it's my favorite author! Of course this was wonderful, and so real and believable. I love your writing (I'm sure I've told you this many times, hope I don't sound creepy lol) and I hope you keep writing because I'll keep coming back!
Also, totally agree with you about this episode, not too great. But this story made it better.
Author's Response: Oh that's awesome! So happy I made it better for ya (me too, I think)...and btw, don't EVER fear you are creeping me out. Your words are so kind!
