This was amazing. I missed it the first time, but someone recced it again at TWoP today, and my mind is just blown. Beautiful job. *loves*

Summary: Past Featured Story

I have decided to expand on the idea of Codename: Chicken Plate.  This will be my take on the emails, phone calls and conversations we missed over the summer and for the first part of Season 3 (until Pam and Jim actually communicate themselves)  My idea is that Jim knows exactly what happened between Pam and Roy and knows exactly what is going on in Pam's life right now even if WE don't see it.

Oh, wow. What a beautiful story. I love seeing Jim and Pam's love through the eyes of the other workers, but I have never been moved like I was while reading this story.

I love how you fleshed out Meredith's character. Gave her actions and choices meaning. Her voice was so strong that I have a hard time imagining that this didn't happen to her.

 

 



Author's Response: Wow, I didn't think this would be considered moving. And I'm really glad this sounded like her to you; capturing the voices of someone else's characters is tough. Thanks very much for reviewing!

Oh, god. Now I'm sitting at my desk with scary mascara running down my face a la Kelly. That was gorgeous. I'm generally not a fan of fic involving babies(it's just so easily cliche) but this. GUH. The use of the Beatles song was just perfect. And...just gorgeous. Beautiful job.



Author's Response: I agree re: baby fic - hard to do without overdosing on cute. In fact, have only done one other story where I gave them a tyke (same baby, btw - little continuity there!) But this story just seemed to demand that they reproduce! Thanks so much for the feedback!

Oh! I love this! Jan and Michael made me tear up a bit too. I especially liked Jan's last talking head. I firmly believe she cares for Michael more than anyone could imagine, and you nailed her(TWSS.)

 And nice job on the classic Dwight. Hee. Now I want to see him in a scarecrow outfit. Heh.

 

 



Author's Response:

thank you for your sweet review!  I'm convinced as well that Jan feels something deeper for Michael than she lets on, even now.  That's why I think they can resolve Pam and Jim and move on to focusing on Jan and Micheal - they are such an unique couple!

Thanks for reading and reviewing - it's always appreciated to know how my writing has gone over. :-)

I really enjoyed this. The thing I hate most about the first part of the season is that we missed Jim's reactions to EVERYTHING, and this? I think nailed what he would've thought about Diwali.

I just wish we could've gotten Jim's reaction to Pam rejecting Michael's kiss.

Great job! 

 



Author's Response: I had to go with the idea that the DVD Jim got would not have included everything about that night. He doesn't see the last half of the evening (Michael's proposal and the aftermath), because the crew didn't give him the whole 'reel'. But yeah, the idea of his reaction to Michael trying to kiss Pam is ... food for thought. :D

Holy shit. That was intense. I'm so glad that you wrote the no holds barred approach to the Jim/Karen break up because I know we won't see it on the show, and your take is just SO. GOOD.

The only problem? The new chapter is no longer new and now we have to wait again. :(

AWESOME job, as usual. ;)

NO WORDS.

Okay. I think I can speak now. This? Is exactly why I don't generally read WIPs. I am seriously bouncing in my chair at work right now. I cannot begin to tell you how awesome this story is.

Jim and Pam are soooooo unbelievably in character. I could literally see this happening on the show. Jim's reactions and thoughts about Pam are exactly what I'm PRAYING he feels on the show.

I also have a feeling that  Vexin is someone we know and love from the show. Or she's onto Mr. Squirrel. Or both. I don't know. I just love the whole thing.

Please, ma'am, may I have some more(tonight?)

YAY!!! You have no idea how excited I was to come back to this story and find not one, but TWO new chapters!!! I LOVE the chat room format. This story is so original and well written and in character and GAH! I have to stop, because I'm sure I'm just repeating every other review here, but I CANNOT wait for the next chapter!



Author's Response: starblossom56 - repeat whatever you want, it's good to get it out of your system, and I love to hear it!  ;-)  Thanks so much for reading and leaving a review - it's good to know the story is working for you!!  Chapter 4 will be here soon, I promise!

Date: March 05, 2007 Title: Chapter 1: When the evening is spread out against the sky

HEE! That was adorably cute(and totally stalkery and SO something I would do.) I can't wait to see what happens next!

I think my favorite thing about the story is, oddly enough, Karen. Because I like to think that Karen is like the Pam Gestapo to Jim, and this? EXACTLY how I would like their relationship to be on the show. Awesome job! 

 



Author's Response: Yes, I can't help but see Karen as some sort of guard with Jim, and it irks me to no end that he lets her get away with it.  It's his fear of being alone that makes him put up with it, I think.  Once he knows he can have pam, I doubt he'll stand for it any longer....I hope!!

This story just keeps getting better and better. I cannot WAIT to hear what happened with the Jim/Ryan conversation, and I'm really excited about the (possible) Jim/Pam confrontation. Also, why can't Karen be like this on the show? She's AWESOME. You know that there are a gajillion other things that I adore about this story, as I'm starting to repeat myself, but GAH. It's just too good. I'm gonna hold my breath until you post the next chapter. :)

Um. I ... um. Need a cold shower, I think? HOLY MOTHER OF GOD, Dinkin. That was maybe the hottest thing I've ever read. I literally broke a sweat. And the worst part, totally read this sitting at my desk at work. Heh. My office mate asked me a question in the middle of the chapter, and my face turned beet(heh) red.

I was wondering how this was all going to play out, but DAMN, girl. You've got it all going on here. And it may be wrong(seeing that I'm a JAM shipper all the way) I got the biggest grin on my face when she said Ryan's name. I love this Ryan. And this jealous Jim too. And Pam.. And Karen. And all of them, really. But I do have a question...did Pam say Ryan's name because she was trying to make Jim (more) jealous, or because she's falling for Ryan??? EEEE!!! More please!

Sidenote: I read that edo is going out of town, so if you need a substitute beta, holla! 

 



Author's Response: Hahaha, you are awesome! And I might take you up on that beta offer since edo is getting her wisdom teeth out I think?  So keep an eye on your inbox ;)
