Three Hundred Sixty Turns Should Do It by Maxine Abbott Rated: T [Reviews - 214]

Summary:

NOW COMPLETE! and featuring bonus content - enhanced reader notes. BUT DO NOT READ ANY OF THESE CHAPTER/END NOTES ON STEROIDS UNTIL YOU FINISH READING THE ENTIRE FIC - MAJOR SPOILERS ALERT.

The Office meets Harry Potter. - Sort of, but not exactly, and you don't need to be a fan or really know any HP to follow this fic.

You should enjoy stories about time travel and the magic of love.

Michael discovers a Time Turner and takes Pam on a time-traveling adventure.

Takes place after The Carpet in season 2 with attempts to be canon-compliant as much as possible for as long as possible considering it is a story that involves the supernatural. But with time travel possible, canon winds up taking some small shifts and even sharp turns.

OH MY GOD! When Randall said he doesn't have a wife, I literally sat forward and went WHAT?
For about 15 chapters (maybe more?) I've been fixating on a line where Gabby says 'Not yet Gabrielle' and I've been waiting for something to happen and now KABOOM!
Really enjoyed seeing time move forward quite a bit here and all the ways that Jim is supporting Pam in her new life.
Such a great chapter and I can't wait to read the final one!!
I'm out of jellybeans, but have one of Pam's granola bars on me

Author's Response:

Sorry I've been so bad about responding to my reviews. So busy trying to bring this bird in for a landing but now that I have I want to say thanks for all the great reviews and excitement and the granola bar!

I'm so pleased you enjoyed the twist...I know it's a bit confusing and ambiguous but I left a little for the imaginative set to interpret their own way. Always leave them thinking, right?

Thank you again for enjoying my labor of love.

Great call back to the pepper spray incident here to bring the two Pam’s back together here, and I’m so happy she’s kept both sets of memories!
Loved Jim being all protective but looking like Gumby. Fun reference there
Looking forward to the next two chapters for sure!!

Also, totally forgot to say, omg that music video!!!! PERFECTION! Amazing find and a great song!

Author's Response:

I've known song for a while - been sitting on it since I started this fic. BUt I never did watch the video until I needed to share and you can imagine how excited I was. If only DD and JK were in it instead of the few I didn't know (and for a flash I thought one of those was JK). Now I love the song even more!!!

Glad you were excited by it too.

This was all so beautifully written, loved it.
You wrote the break up so well here. Roy just doesn’t get it at all, and at the end he still says boyfriend. Amazing work.
The reference to Pam’s blue shirt was a great call out as it’s so strikingly different to her normal clothes.
Looking forward to the next chapter!

Author's Response:

The breakup scene was one of the hardest parts for me to write so thanks for the kind words. You noticed the blue shirt - good!

TY again.

Oh my god! The reasoning from Roy, I just wanted to scream!!! I could totally see this in canon, Jim using the wedding against Pam to stop her from pursuing art and making himself look like the caring boyfriend, sorry, fianc?.
The tickling after. Ick!! But again, I could SO see this happening
Very well done! 👏

Author's Response:

Well, Roy just sucks.

Thanks for your review.

Oh this is fun that we’ve caught up to the other Pam. I loved how just as she found the earring, it’s gone again. Loved the bit about the missing money - oh other other Pam!!
Looking forward to more

Author's Response:

Thanks MrsK.

Glad to hear you enjoy other Pam is getting some fire. Takes a little meddling with the universe but at least she is.

Thanks again so much.

Oh my god!! My heart was breaking a little for Pam when she found the condom. GET OUT NOW GIRL!
Can't wait to see what happens next!

Author's Response:

Yeah, not the homecoming she was expecting. Pam, Listen to Mrs.K. Thinks she will?

Thanks for the review!

Oh Pam, you’re so close! Come on!! Like you said yourself, I just wanted to shake her
“More and more she remembered that vision she once had where Jim was the groom waiting at the end of her veiled walk down the aisle.” Yesss Pam. More of this!

Author's Response:

Stupid earring.

I promise to shake her up in some future chapters.

Thanks bunches for the review.

Date: February 27, 2022 Title: Chapter 17: Chapter 17 - For Love of Elvis

I liked this chapter getting to know more about Gabby and Randall’s relationship and the parallels there. I spent most of the chapter just willing Pam to realise!
“…and murmured something Pam couldn’t quite make out but sounded a bit like didn’t happen yet Gabrielle.” This line though has me SO intrigued!!!! Looking forward to the next chapter and hopefully finding out more!!!

Author's Response:

Me too, me too and she's getting closer I think but there's still lots of tale to unfold.

Thank you as ever for reading and reviewing. Every review is like old 70s pop to my ears (and I mean that in a good way).

I really liked this chapter a lot!
Love all the close brushes they’ve had with Jim and Stanley, and almost with Pam herself if Jim hadn’t of stepped in!
“ It was more that Pam hated to be that person who didn’t do what was expected of her and kept something long past the due date.” I loved this line. I think this goes a long way to explain why Pam was still with Roy - because it was expected of her.
Looking forward to more!

Author's Response:

Thanks so much MrsK...

Yup that's season 2 Pam.

There were a lot of telling lines sprinkled through this chapter but this was a big one.

Thanks again for the review. :)

Really enjoyed this chapter, nice work! Loved the lottery numbers part and Michael not being able to figure it out. And three Michaels! No one wants that!! And yasss for women’s clothes with pockets!!

Author's Response:

Hey thanks - gotta love that OL - I get a lot of material from it. This was fun to drop in.

Lottery thing even had me confused, gotta say. Glad you enjoyed that bit.

Three Michaels - very dangerous, but would make a funny fic.

Thanks for the review.

That didn’t take long! Great chapter and love the part about gaslighting herself. Bleugh Roy not being able to ‘perform’, he’s gotta go!!

Author's Response:

I've put way to much thought into the repercussions of time travel and what could go wrong but it is what is making writing this story a trip!
Yeah Roy - I agree he's gotta go - just Pam isn't quite there yet.

Thank you again for your review.

So sorry this has taken me so long to get to, but it’s been worth the wait! This story is so awesome and very well done. This chapter in particular was great, I really loved what you did with the 27 seconds! Nice work!

Author's Response:

Thanks so much. This is the most difficult stories I've ever written so I really do appreciate the review and the jellybean.

Always glad to hear from readers whenever they find the time to do it.

Many thanks again.

Gahhh I feel we’re so close and I can’t wait!

“She needed to understand she was the catalyst of her own happiness and while the whole world was singing songs and posting up signs to point her there, she had to be the one to make it happen.” YES PAM!! You can do it

Love the idea that she’s leaving herself this little journal entry so that she’ll have the courage to do everythjng!

Looking forward to the next update!!

Author's Response:

I know you like fun facts so here's one: I'm often inspired by music lyrics and this line came about after listening to No No No - Pumpin Blood.

Just to clarify the journal entry is to make sure any changes she does make are not overturned when/if she no longer remembers being this other version of herself and doesn't remember what she is about to do. Like a secret message to herself to explain what she went through - a lot like Lucy has in 50 First Dates. (hope you saw the movie, it was sweet).

Thanks for your review and being so invested. Cheers.

Well this was an interesting read!!
As much as I obviously don’t want Pam to get cheated on, I was kinda like ‘nooo’ when it turned out Roy hadn’t used that condom because I was so sure that was going to be a confrontational point there.
As gross as the thought of sleeping on other people’s sex sheets are 🤢 I think you totally nailed early seasons Darryl where he was just a bit of a douche really.
Pam finding the artwork (loved the clueless references) again I was like ‘nooo Roy has redeeming qualities’ but then to find out he uses it for Fantasy Football kinda crushed me for Pam.
If you couldn’t tell, I hate Roy 🤣
Looking forward to the next update!

Ahhh so happy there’s an update but oh my god. Jim what are you playing at?! Loved the Pam/Dwight interaction, felt very canon like. Oh that Valentine’s scavenger hunt. Go back to being that guy Jim!!
Can’t wait for your next update! Happy new year!

Another amazing chapter and I feel that I’m finally recovering from the angst. Phew!!
Loved Jim and Pam getting back to them. Your callback to the deleted scene of Jim watching Pam and startling her awake was amazing!
I’m just as relieved for Mark and Isabel. Glad they look like they’ll be ok!
Dwight and Angela going off their schedule was hilarious. I really hope they conceived a baby up again thst tree.
Kelly and Ryan. All j have to say is HILARIOUS
Michael and Holly 😍
And Andy!!!!!
Amazing work. Gonna be sad to see this one end soon 😭😭

Author's Response: Thanks so much! Haha, pleased to hear you're recovering from the angst. (I can promise the angst is probably now finished, if that helps). That deleted scene with Jim is one of my favourites, so I'm glad you enjoyed it here. And the Kelly and Ryan, lol. I will also be sad to finish writing this one, although I realise I'm now coming up to a year since I started this...so it's probably about time, oops. Thanks very much for reviewing!

Oh thank goodness you're back!! Please don't ever leave us this long again on this kind of cliffhanger!
Excellent chapter as always. I loved the reveal of Jim having her crumpled note and using 'not enough for me...you are everything'
And Mark and Isabel. THANK GOD.
All I can say is MORE, MORE please!!! And a hugely deserved congrats for AOTM!

Author's Response: Haha, I apologise (and for the delayed response to this) - but thanks very much! Really glad you liked the note and Mark/Isabel :) And thanks again on AOTM!

Oh man, you have written this SO well that I’m just in incredibly invested in making sure Mark and Isabel are ok! They need to make it ok? Please don’t break them up, I’m not sure I can take it!!
Michael realising he can date another therapist and running off 😍 go get her!!
Ugh Toby and Charles are THE WORST. So glad Jim made it there, before anything bad happened. God I hope Mark does too
Awesome chapter, can’t wait for the next update!!

Author's Response: Ah, thank you so much! (and sorry for slow reply). I'm really glad you're invested in Mark and Isabel haha, I am really enjoying writing them. I am also enjoying writing Toby and Charles lol - I forgot how unlikeable Idris Elba manages to make himself on the show. Thanks so much for the review! :)

First off, loved Oscar’s finer things club for one. And Holly’s reaction to his wine. So sweet to find our more about her wanting to be more with Michael. Loved getting their take on all the couples. My heart is still breaking for Jim and Pam though! Can’t wait to see what Toby brings!!
