Ooooo. I really like this idea. Sounds like it's gonna be a fun ride. Looking forward to 24 more chapters!

Author's Response: Thanks so much :)  It'll be fun, but definitely bumpy!  Thanks for reading!

Awww... holding hands.
I love this for many reasons, one being because it is told from Jim's perspective, in first person. It is a fun point of view, and seems very Jim so far. Nice job!

Author's Response: Glad to hear that I'm staying true to our favorite shaggy-haired paper salesman :)  Thanks for reading!

Summary: Squirrel returns! Jim's got the girl, but what's the price? Set at season 4 progresses, with episode overlaps. The IRC chatters are back, too. :-)

I was so ridiculously excited to see this, Moxie!
And it was so worth the wait. Hilarious interactions in the chat room. I laughed out loud repeatdly and loved the craziness of everyone's responses, with all the cute Jim/Pam dorkiness on the side.
As always, really, really awesome; and I cannot wait to read more!

Author's Response: Thanks, DI!  I hope the sequel can live up to the original - at least this one has been fun to write so far....  I appreciate the review!

Reviewer: desert island Signed
Date: October 18, 2007 Title: Chapter 2: Yet, love, mere love, is beautiful indeed

No apologies are necessary, Mox, that was perfectly fluffy and happy and fun. Except that ending... not fair!
Their domestic life together is just so satisfyingly quiet and normal.
And I love how you are weaving the show's dialogue into your story. Really cool.

Author's Response: thanks, desert!  I'm working on bringing more fluff in chapter 3 - stay tuned!!  (and thanks for reviewing!!)

Reviewer: desert island Signed
Date: November 06, 2007 Title: Chapter 3: Say over again, and yet once over again

That was awesome and such a funny ending.
I really enjoyed learning about Leikha and am looking forward to learning more about the other chatters.
And, again, how you intertwined the show into the story was flawless. Just really perfect.

That was hilarious and exactly how a night with Mose and Dwight would be. Too bizarre and too funny. I love that Dwight puts his briefcase in a safe. Perfection!

I guess we'll be finding out soon enough what it's like to spend a night with them!  Thanks, desert island :)

This is really fun so far. I think Jim and Pam's costumes are perfectly understated, but clever, like them.
I also think the dialogue is quite good: faced paced and funny.
But, even with his affinity for Battlestar Galactica, I hope we learn why Dwight would dress like a girl!
Nice work!

Still loving the dialogue. Really feels like an episode.
Can't wait to learn what's up with PB&J!
