I think this worked very well, especially given the fact that these two shows are told in quite different ways. This seems simple but very much in both their voices. Bravo.
For some reason, I think I like the Jim POV part the best. :D
His manner was easy, charmingly awkward. Chuck would like him, he thought with an inward pang he tried his best to ignore. Awwwwwww. Poor Ned. He needs a hug. *hugs Ned*
He was a good listener, though. Almost like a bartender, but better. A bartender with pie. I love the glimpse into Jim's thought process here and how he just says out loud what he thinks. And its awesome. Funniest moment to me (aside from Olive being scared by Ned's suggestion that he might be beside her throwing his voice).
I think I liked the Jim POV part best, too. These boys just kept getting more and more serious as I wrote, but the cute never left entirely. I think that would be impossible.
I like the idea of him telling her a bunch or random funny stuff as a way of making up for lost time. You see that every so often in season three, where one or the other of them remembers something that happened that they wish they'd been able to share. I find that the saddest thing about them being apart, the day-to-day silly stuff.
I'm glad you liked the emo boy mish-mash--especially since I'd've never thought of writing it if it wasn't for the convergence of your (ok, and my!) new obsessions. :)
awww, it's so cute. I love their awkwardness. How simple their conversation is to each other but it reveals so much about them. I could totally see them sharing pie together.
Olive and her protectiveness made me laugh, so did the bit about all the cameras.

And look: finally, a Jim icon!
