Baaaah. These improv fics are like crack (to read). Meaning GOOD.

I love Dwight and Angela, and I love you now because you wrote them so wonderfully. Angela, with the naked, and the gum, and the church, and they way it's so perfect that Dwight is so precise, and... YES.

Also, this?

"Don't come in!" Angela snaps; she backs behind the closet door in a panic. "Occupied! Occupied!"

Made me laugh like a mofo. For real. I love it.

They're like crack to write, too. I swear this is the only thing that got me out of bed this morning: I was thinking, "Okay, there are going to be prompts for me, NEW PROMPTS. I can't not write today. GOTTA GET UP."

I'm on some kind of Dwight kick. I still hadn't quite gotten out of Schrute-style headspace by the time last night's episode happened, and I kept watching Dwight thinking, "Yes. That makes sense. Of course." I gotta snap out of it, man.

(But! He's so cute with Angela! So sweet! ACK!)

Glad you liked it! Yay, first comment!

Ohh. This is so spot-on them, it's uncanny. Angela and Dwight have two very distinct voices, and you get both of them just so right. This is so very sweet in the oddest of ways, which is fitting for this strange couple. Bravo!

Thank you! This week has turned into a very nervewracking experiment in trying new things in my fic-writing, using different characters and different voices and POVs, and I'm mostly just very relieved to find out that I can do it! I just kept hearing "POOP!" in my head, the whole time. Oh, Angela.

Have you ever read the Miss Zukas series by Jo Dereske? Angela's whole thing about things being "too domestically intimate" sort of reminds me of her. Great fic! You should read Miss Zukas if you haven't already. :)

Thanks! And no, I haven't read that series, but I'll be sure to give it a try.

♥♥♥!!! Oh, God, this is ANGELA -- absolute pure unadulterated Angela the whole way through, and oh, it's delightful and brilliant. Every little detail is fantastic, and I just love her waking up so horrified and fallen woman-esque, and DWIGHT IN THE KITCHEN. Why do you keep making Dwight melt my soul with these fics of yours???

Not that I am complaining, because it's adorable and awesome. :D

Excellent, excellent work, you!

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeee! Again: coming from the queen of the Angela POV (that would be you), this means a LOT. ::does a delighted little dance::

Why do you keep making Dwight melt my soul with these fics of yours???

BECAUSE I LOVE HIM, DAMMIT. I don't know when this kicked in! I'm just-- DWIGHT! He's so practical and so fierce and so loyal and so protective and so determined and he's just so DWIGHT. And, yeah, he's a doofus, but he is the best possible kind. (Except for possibly the Andy kind of doofus. Or maybe the Roy kind of doofus. Or the Michael kind of doofus. OH GOD, I LOVE THEM ALL.)

Heeeeeeeeeeeeeee. Oh, Angela. This is so her.

Thankyouuuu, madam!
