That was beautiful.  Loved, loved Jim waiting there at the bottom of the escalator.  And I heart Mrs. Beesly so much for being there for Pam.

Thanks for a great story!

Moxie,

It's so weird to think that when you started this fic, I was just starting to watch the show, and didn't even know that Office messageboards existed.  And now, look how far I've come.  I'm really honored to have met all of the fans and authors here, especially such a great writer as yourself.  You should really feel a sense of accomplishment for finishing this.  It's a epic undertaking to write a 30 some-odd chapter story over such a long period of time and keep it fresh and plot driven with such a great ending.  So congrats!

And these awesome lines sum up our wish for S4:

things are only suppose to get better when you move beyond friendship. Not worse, and not entirely different. Who we are hasn't changed. You're still my best friend; why wouldn't it be this easy to laugh and joke around despite the fact that I'm still dying to make love to you?

Thanks again, Mox! :)

Summary: What's this feeling I have? Oh, hope! Optimism! A bit of giddiness. Here's a little self-indulgent trip into Happy Jam Land for some saucy morning after pillow talk.

What a treat to get an update to this lovely story.  It brings back fond memories of the days when my kids were young and I was trying to balance the same tasks of wife, mother, work and school.  Crazy.

Love the Dwight/Andy/Michael silliness.  Loved the voicemails.  Loved the pranking.  This story is so much fun to read; always makes me smile.  Thanks!



Author's Response: Aw!! Thanks so much EverybodyHurts. I'm glad I could bring some smiles to your day! :-)

Oracle Mom by time4moxie Rated: T [Reviews - 91] 53
Summary: Past Featured Story

MEMBER'S CHOICE - The Jim and Pam saga affects more than just those two. Sometimes it's hard to sit by and be a mother while those two dance around the subject.

New Chapter added - more Jim/Pam holiday fluffiness.  :-)

What a nice Thanksgiving treat for us all, another installment of "Oracle Mom."  So nice to "catch up" with the Halpert clan and all their doings.  

We will definitely need to hear the "Jamie" backstory at some point though.  I have three cousins named James.  The oldest one is "Jim", the next one is "Jimmy" and the youngest one was always "Jamie."  It was the only way we could probably address them at big family gatherings.  And I still call the youngest one "Jamie" even though he's married with a baby now.  Crazy.

Summary:

Jim. From Casino Night to post The Return. Sometimes things go in a circle.

How sweet!  I loved this line: He’s learned the hard way not to second-guess her.

How true is this?  This is why we will ultimately have to wait for Pam to initiate the "Big Talk." 

I also loved the intimacy of the hands touching.  As someone on TWoP mentioned, pranking is like sex for Jim and Pam.  The way the two of them just connect....hotter than any of those couples hopping in and out of bed on Grey's.  JMHO.

Anyway, thanks so much for this.  You did a wonderful job Colette.



Author's Response: I agree - got to be Pam this time. And yeah, pranking is like their language (I actually wrote another little fic about that.) And it's definitely hotter that Grey's (how artificial is that show?) Glad you liked this...and thanks for the thoughtful review!

Jim and Pam share a dance and reminisce a little.  Pure speculation - no real spoilers.  And just a word of warning.  If it were any fluffier, it'd be made of spun sugar.

That's all right, Pam, we are too. *sniffs, dabs eyes*

Thank you for this beautiful story.  I would love to see them slow dance at Phyllis' wedding...sigh.

Ok, I remember reading this awhile back, and then forgetting about it.  So when I saw the Mean magazine cover, it totally brought me back to the beginning of this story, so here I am.  I loved "Hope" too, and am looking foward to reading the rest of this.  Thanks!

He knew before she pointed it out which one was hers: the only one with curtains in the window and potted plants on the steps.

Of course, that's our Pam's place!  Love how the attraction between them is already getting awkward.  She still can't call him Jim.  Sigh.

Onto the next....

Oh, this was sad, but so sweet that Jim is a good boy and takes care of his mom.  I'm not going to read the other reviews until I finish what you've written so far, but I assume Robert is either his dad or a brother killed during the war.

I also like the fact that Pam being engaged doesn't deter him from pursuing her.  Go Jim!

Attaboy, Roy, always the great fiancee...not.  Love the fireworks....brings my mind back to The Client and the "date."  Jim starts off trying to be "the boss" and not horse around, but ends up getting all tousled and dirty playing football despite his best intentions.

Enjoying this story.  Thanks!

OMG, this chapter was so cute.  Pam and her famous sweaters, Jim buying her a coke (squee) and knowing to include a straw, and the obvious attraction between them.  This is really getting good.  That photo of you is adorable too!  I like the visuals you include at the end.

Well, now that I've caught up, I will have to favorite this so that I know when you update!



Author's Response: thanks so much for all the wonderful reviews!! you are really too sweet.  I'm going on vacation and plan to write while I relax so expect a new chap next week!! :)

Aww..that brought me right back to his interview in "The Job."  So sweet. 

So excited to see a new chapter up, PPC!  Hey, your username initials are the same as the Party Planning Committee.

Take as much time as you need between chapters.  You're doing a great job keeping this story authentic.

So excited to get an update on this lovely story!  And "You Don't Know Me" is a wonderful song, I have it on one of my JAM mix CD's. :)

Aww, swaying vs. dancing, how sweet.  Thanks for including all the links, they really help with the visuals.  I hope you don't leave us hanging too long for the next chapter, because I can't imagine how Pam is going to explain the dress and the pearls to Roy.  Obviously, he'll never see them. ;)

Summary:

A series of drabbles, set after Back From Vacation (with some slight spoilers) and deviating from there. Pam makes Jim face the same difficult decision (and consequences) that she had to deal with.

Each drabble is 100 words according to MS Word, so if the summary says otherwise...it's lying. :0)

Hey, just spent the morning reading this great fic and all the reviews.  Thank god for TWoP and all the links to the fanfic I miss...Props to you for such an awesome job with this.  I am so impressed with the drabble format and, as others mentioned, the chapter titles coincided so well.  My fave thing was how Dwight and Angela conspired to help Pam with her plan to get Jim back.  I had no problem with Pam in NY; as a matter of fact, now that we've all seen FNB in action on the show, I think your Pam is totally realistic!

Fine work!!



Author's Response: woohoo! i know! i'm all new to twop, but i'm loving it already. you guys are *awesome*! i'm so glad you liked it! (the chapter titles were one of my favorite bits, so it's awesome that you liked them too.) thanks so much, you're awesome!

I just watched the three Office episodes and got all misty during "The Call" and now I'm really crying here after reading this, it's just so goddamned beautiful and sweet and it's crazy how badly we all want this to happen.

this time with me leaning against my desk, and you leaning into me, and it felt like falling, but safely falling, like our landing would be soft and perfect, and I wasn't afraid at all this time,

Beautifully poignant choice of words.

 



Author's Response: Thanks so much! I'm glad it hits people emotionally, like it did to me as I was writing it. And I'm glad you liked that specific part. It's one of my favorite parts, too!

Hi.  I'm chiming in on this story for the first time thanks to the rec on TWoP and I'm glad because this felt like reliving S3 up to this point.  It really compliments that NBC Jam promo video. 

This fic really captures well everything they've been living with and thinking since CN.  I'm really looking foward to see where this goes as we head into the finale (yippee!)



Author's Response: Ah, I don't know who rec'd it at TWoP, but that was very nice of them. Glad you're enjoying... I'm having fun with it. Of course, it drives me crazy that next week is a repeat!
