Stumbled upon this on Twitter some time ago, but didn't have time to read it until now. And man... I'm glad I took the time. This was SO GOOD! What a wonderful and oh so interesting world you give us. I'm left wanting to know more! What the pandemic is. How come all the countries had a crisis. How the apocalyptic set is going to end. Will the world right itself. Etc, etc... So even though Bill and Tom is in the center of it, the world you built around it is SO INTERESTING!!! I loved it. You write very well, I have to say. A nice flow of words. And I loved Tom especially in this, for some reason. A tired and desperate doc who just wants to help kids. My heart goes out to him. Well done! LOVED IT!

Author's Response: Thank you so much! It makes me incredibly happy that you like the worldbuilding and Tom's personality, since those were the two things I struggled with the most when I wrote this! There isn't going to be any more explanation, the story was always intended to be this short and focused on the guys only -- but I'm still glad you're intrigued! Thank you for taking the time to leave such a lovely review! :)

I recall some of my friends talking about this fiction which is why I put it on my tracked list - which I use to remind myself which fics I want to read at some point - but other than that, I did not really know what to expect since I had never read anything written by you. But damn, I was stunned!! Your writing and description of details and surroundings is absolutely beautiful. I LOVED the atmosphere you created, and the world they live in seems extremely interesting. I could've read about this a lot more; this is such an intriguing universe, and I like the characters. I would love to know how Bill and Tom's relationship developed, how their life in the crisis continued etc.

But, it was also great the way it was. Aww for the boys' ending, I am sure they will be fine as long as they have each other.

I seriously seriously do hope you keep writing things and sharing them with us!

Author's Response: Thank you so much for your review! I'm so happy you liked the ending despite its openness, it was always intended to be sort of hopeful without some kind of miraculous solution to all their problems :) And I have one other story up on THF right now, it's about witches and I'm trying super hard to get the next chapter done, so if you feel like it, you could check that out :D (shameless self promotion) Anyway, thanks again for taking the time to leave such a lovely review!

Hahaha yesss sipping on the tea. But no that's a good thing because it means your story is realistic af! And yay thats so cool that you were in Hamburg! Such an underrated city that people overlook but once you go there you have to fall in love :)

Author's Response: Thank you! :) It's definitely underrated! People are always surprised to hear I picked Hamburg instead of Berlin for my Auslandssemester, but I don't regret it one bit. I love Hamburg <3

I don't even know what to say. That was super sad, though the ending was nice. Can't imagine anyone living in that situation, least of all Bill, though he is definitely stronger than he looks.

I think I would have liked to see the kids reactions when they opened the box, and what happens to Bill and Tom, but tbh, I liked this ending too :) It leaves enough unsaid that you can make up your own mind, and everything can be as good as you want it to.

So, yeah. Amazing work ^_^

Author's Response: I'm glad you mention the kids! My initial idea was to have Bill wake them up and to give them a more prominent role, but the chapter was getting so long and I decided it didn't really go with the mood. So I'm really happy to hear you say you liked the ending as is! Thanks so much for your reviews!! :)

Aww. This one made me sad & happy. Poor Bill, but yay for Tom helping :)

Will definitely check out that somg tomorrow, sounds interesting ^_^

Author's Response: Sad and happy at the same time is one of my favorite combinations, so I'm glad you got that from this, that was the intention! Thank you! :)

Fuck i dont know now. I am reading about this dystopian fucked up city ruined by crime and its actually my city and the descriptions are way too real that this is tooooo much.

Author's Response: *cup of tea* I want to say thank you for the compliment, but also I'm sorry for making you feel weird :) Thank you for taking the time to leave reviews, it means a lot!

I'm still a bit confused about who Bill is and how they know each other and why he was robbing with a gun....I guess i must read on..

Author's Response: I don't think I ever state it outright, but they know each other because Tom treated Bill's baby sister who died :) And basically everything has gone to hell, so he's desperate. But I guess that gets explained better in the last chapter! Thanks for reading!

Ohhhhhhhmygod. I am in love with this already. I first clicked because it said Altona and i am from Hamburg :D Anyway, i think this is a really interesting introduction and i want to read more and find out who the guy in the mask was. I am also digging a doctor/suregeon Tom.

Author's Response: Oh cool, you're from Hamburg?? I love that city so much (did a semester there at uni) :D Thank you!!

this was a good story!
u should do a sequel to this

Author's Response: Thank you! I don't think I'll be writing a sequel, though, this was all I ever intended to write about this universe (although I do love it a lot). I just don't know what a sequel would be except either complete death and destruction or some kind of unrealistic happy ending, you know? But thank you for the excitement! :)

OHHHHHHHHHHHHH THIS IS THE BEST THING. I can't get over how LOVELY your writing it, I am sitting here with heart eyes trying to drink in every word it's so beautiful. I think I'm repeating myself from my other reviews sorry about that but gosh you're so clever and so talented please always write for this fandom you are such a gem of an author, I looooove your writing so so so so SO much. It's 100% some of the absolute best on this site.

The way you crafted such a bleak Hamburg and the little hints to a crazy backstory of this apocalyptic world they live in now was incredible. When I was a teenager I pretty much exclusively read dystopian books and this took me right back, it will always be my favourite genre I think. Makes me want to finish my own little apocalyptic twins too.

Your twins were just perfect, too. I loved how Tom was such a gentle soul, and so desperately sad for this tragic world and how Bill was so bright even though everything had gone to shit. The way they interacted was gorgeous, and the KISS. My own belly was swirling just as much as Tom's I think!! I read that paragraph like five times lol.

I feel so lucky to have read this, it's filled me with so much warmth and joy and hope and inspiration. Obvs going straight to my faves, and I've noted you as a fave author now so I'll know when you post something next ;) stalking you, there's no escape.

I am feeling a lot of things right now haha so I'll stop. Just know, you are CRAZY talented girl, incredibly so. Thanks for writing this masterpiece!

Author's Response: I've gone back to this review at least five times to try and write an answer, but I just have no words for how happy and honored I feel, this is TOO MUCH. The reception to my first proper fic here has been so amazing and full of encouragement and I'm so grateful! I'll definitely be posting more :D Also I can't get over your description of my twins because it's 100% exactly what I had in mind when I wrote them and it feels kinda fantastic that it's worked for you! And thank you for mentioning the kiss, writing that was a little out of my comfort zone so it's an immense relief that you liked it! Thank you thank you THANK YOU! <333 (also: your apocalyptic twins? yes please!)

Good story :) Feels like a beginning not an ending.

Author's Response: Thank you! It was meant to feel like a beginning for the guys, so I'm happy to hear you felt that too :)

I'm so starry eyed, I feel like I'm reading every word so carefully because I don't want to miss anything, I want to appreciate it ALL. Such beautiful writing, I can't get over it!

I love Tom's character in this, he's so gentle and calm. Their dynamic is lovely, too. AHHH THIS IS SO GOOD.

Author's Response: ahhhh your reviews make me so happy! I'm so excited that you like my writing so much, haha! THANK YOU! <3
