Awwww, thank you, you! You are the best.

(I just said 'you' three times in a row. How lame is that? Or possibly . . . awesome??)

Perfect! Absolutely awesome. Everyone's already mentioned everything, I just can't-- gah. So much to compliment, so little that hasn't already been said.

She wants to tell him that she doesn’t know whether it’s worth it, that she doesn’t know how to be brave, to make the right kinds of sacrifices. She doesn’t know how to be honest where it counts, and maybe he doesn’t either.

Oh, PAM.

Thank youuu! :) Aw, I'm so flattered you liked it -- especially since Waking Expectations emotionally destroyed me in the best way ever and I am seriously in awe of you. This episode just made for heartbreaking fanfic, huh? Siiiiigh.

Oh, this is fabulous - the quietness of it, the character development of Pam, the sort of passive sadness that really came with the episode this week. Just great.

Perfect. This is wonderful in that in captures so many of the characters so beautifully and succeeds in being more than a post-ep. "The post-ep that wasn't a post-ep" or something. Lovely. Thank you for writing.

Like others, I loved Grandma Schrute. Also-
“No, seriously,” he insists. “Granted, it’s not a unicorn in a field of flowers, but still. Impressive nonetheless.”

Brilliant and beautiful, as always. Creed's line was hilarious and I love the way you portrayed Roy -- the line about getting used to him being attentive is so perfect. That's really the thing about your writing, too -- you put in all these little details and don't draw a ton of attention to them, which makes the whole thing incredibly layered and complex and subtle and meaningful and just so, so absolutely gorgeous. ♥
