Pam has had enough. She traps Jim in the supply closet with her.
8 I just love happy endings! Locking herself in the supply closet with Jim seems exactly like the type of thing Pam would do.
Author's Response:
You know, I wish she would lock herself in there with him! And that we get to see it...
Thanks for reviewing!
Could be kinda in response to The Injury challenge. Jim suddenly has a lot of time to contemplate and reminisce. 8 "He's like a toy. You wind him up and just sit back and watch. It's really quite fascinating." - best description of Dwight EVER.
I love stories that explore the development of Jim's feelings for Pam, so I have a feeling I'm really going to enjoy this one.
Author's Response: Heee! I hope you do!!
9 Yay, Pam woke up! I love the particular memory Pam chose to fixate upon here. Will we find out what happened during childbirth in the next chapter?
Author's Response:
Did you really think she wouldn't???? Me too!!! Hmmmm. We shall see.
10 Beautiful story. Really, that's all that can be said.
Author's Response:
I cannot ask for more. Thank you!
10 First time I've read this point of view for Pam, that she knows she should love him, that she tries, but it's just not happening. I seemed very real, very possible.
Its 2036. Pam reflects back on the last 30 years.
8 Loved this! Well written, and I loved the flashback scenes, especially the one about the documentary airing.
Author's Response: Thanks!!!
8 Ooh, nice save by Madge! I can't remember, is it canon that Madge has a crush on Roy? I think I read it on her MySpace page...
Author's Response: Yeah, it is on her MySpace page. I hope we see some of her interactions with Roy in Season 3!
Pam learns a new skill from Jim.
10 I liked this. Knotting a tie is a sexy skill for a man with hands like Jim.
Author's Response: Glad you liked it, Luna :) Yeah, I like watching guys knot a tie.
MEMBER'S CHOICE - What if Roy's announcement on the booze cruise was just a few minutes later?8 I'm loving this story! Keep it up with the Jam hotness, and make Roy stay away forever!
Author's Response: Thanks! Unfortunately, Roy is coming back in the next chapter...
10 Very funny. Nice nod to the JK hussies.
Jim sees a therapist. Starts in the midst of season two. 10 I don't think I could have imagined Jim needing therapy, but it does make a weird kind of sense. I love the way you've written it "the answers without questions"...it makes it interesting and all about him. I definitely think you should continue this. I have a feeling the Booze Cruise session is going to be something else.
10 You've made me think about how hard Christmas could be for Jim. Next one is Booze Cruise, right? Can't wait to see if you'll do pre or post...or both.
10 "...as long as there’s her, I’m not going anywhere." - that sums up Jim perfectly.
She chuckles to herself, imagining telling Roy they spent the evening baking brownies and braiding each other’s hair.
9 Great story. I actually re-watched Halloween last night, so it was all fresh for me. You really captured the easy friendship between them...it all seemed so natural. And the last part with the braiding and the licking of chocolate was just sweet (!).
Author's Response: Thanks a lot, Luna!
7 What a great idea, using Pam's art as a way to unlock the door to her feelings for Jim.
Author's Response: Thank you!
Jim teaches Pam a new step.
10 Ah, Jim and Pam dancing...and slow-dancing! Thank you, Phyllis!
Author's Response: Phyllis rocks, doesn't she?! :)
It's the hottest June on record and desperate times call for desperate measures.
I don't know exactly where to place this story. It's June - but Pam definitely isn't married and Jim hasn't said anything. So maybe June of Season 1? Just work w/me people. :)
10 I couldn't wait for you to update this! And now you did, and threw in shirtless Jim as a bonus! Yay!
Author's Response:
Sorry it took so long. I really struggled with the non-Jammy bits. :) It's official. ShirtlessJim is a hit. Not that expected anything less. ;)
10 Outstanding first chapter, and I see the potential for hilarious shananigans (spel?). I think I remember something about Jim near a pool in the JK thread on TWoP... Dwight as a lifeguard? Oh, yeah!
Author's Response:
There's a fabulous Jim in a pool story but I'm afraid this isn't it.
That is not to say there's not the potential for some - as has been mentioned - WetShirtlessJim - but it's not that type of story.
Unfortunately. LOL! ;)
10 Ah, I *so* wish I was on the roof with the gang from Dunder Mifflin. Seems like so much fun!
Author's Response: I mean c'mon. Jim in a pool? Who wouldn't want to be there??????
9 I love that you've taken the time to post your archived stories on this site. This one was one of my favorites from the Jam sessions.
9 Yes, John's pic in Elle is awesome, and I'm glad it inspired this story, which was awesome. Makes me wonder what actually happened to casual Fridays on the show...
Author's Response: I know! We need to see some Casual Friday action on the show.
Author's Response: I know! We need to see some Casual Friday action on the show.
Five different stories about the sign on Jim's desk.10 Loved, loved these vignettes. Definitely going in my favorites...I liked the first one the best, if only for "yeah, well, here's to 08".
Author's Response: Thanks. That just seemed like a very Jim thing to say.
Jim's thoughts...pre-Casino Night.
10 I was aching for Jim at the end of this. So heartwrenching...but at the same time - Pam doesn't know what she's missing!
Author's Response: Ain't it the truth? Let's hope she figures it out this season.
10 "Yes, I do think he would marry her in order to prank me." You are awesome for writing it.
Author's Response:
Thanks! You know Dwight is that convinced of his own importance to everyone around him, too.
9 “Ryan! You should totally grow a beard!” - you know, I like, totally agree with Kelly! Beards are hot :-)
Author's Response: Except I really can't see one on Ryan--can you? I think it might be disastrous.
