Ah, a beautifully executed story! I loved watching their relationship slowly develop and how they both help each other out to survive, both in the earlier chapters as well as later. They don't always make the brightest decisions, but I'm happy everything works out. It's gotta be scary leaving a world you're familiar with for the unknown, but I'm not worried about Tom because I know Bill will be there for him. There seems to be more hope and possibilities where they're going too. I was left wondering whether Georg was still alive after Bill kind of blew up, but then I realized that he's pretty much doomed anyway because there's only so far you can run in a cage before the virus overruns everything. I'm glad Bill and Tom are able to escape all of that! Anyways, loved the read, thanks for writing!

Hello Em! :)
I was thinking for very long time about writing to U the comment or not. And I`ve decided to do that. U know, I have never read in English and yours was the first. I thought that it will be hard to understand and apprehend it right, but I made it and I`m proud of it! Of course it differs from Russian fiction cardinally, but it has some kind of charm and special thrill. I always write large comments to works that make an impression on me, and your story deserve it too.
To keep faith with U, I`m ve-e-e-ery captious person, cos I`m writing my own fiction. I have wide experience of composition and portrayal of the text and have first-hand knowledge of it. At the site where I usually online everyone knows me as a strict critic, but it`s not like that at all! :) Of course, sometimes I can say painful words, but I ALWAYS tell it for the only one goal r12; to teach. Butr30; in U`re case I won`t tell U such things cos:
1) I`ve never read fan fiction in English;
2) I`ve r0;eatenr1; U`re text as I told U earlier;
3) My critic side applauds U :)
The first that I want to notice is a plot. When I was reading your fiction there was firm belief that this was the truth! All U`re world was so-o-o real and I believed in it! Really! And also it had reminded me my favorite film r0;Resident evilr1; where people were poisoned by the virus too and became a zombie. I [i]saw[/i] your infected persons. I could hear their breath and afraid of touching them in my imagination. The main aspect of each story, for me of course, is the [i]realism[/i] of what is going on. I need to feel the details, need to breath with characters and hear their heartbeating. If I don`t my heart tire of it and I finished my reading immediately. U know, Em, I wanna see Bill with dark black eyes. Gosh! I want it so much! *whimpers* Special thanks for illustrations of him. I can`t take my eyes off these pictures. They`re amazing! (Hah, how many warm words I`m sayingr30;). As I`ve touched upon the theme of your characters, I want to share my impressions with U, my dear:)
Tomr30; It was very unusual for me to see such kind of him in the story. Frequently he is a macho, a guy who wants to f*ck everything that can move apart its legs. Butr30; U`ve surprised me and I`m so glad!) Your Tom is brave, strong spirited and yielded to the temptations (I mean all actions from Bill. If I were on his place I don`t know what would I do with that hot guy with deep black eyes ^___^). I think he`s very reliable man and I would entrusted him with my life. I want to find such kind of guy in real life, but it`s so hard, cos all normal lads have disappeared and in our world are only gays and bastards. :D
Billr30; I fell in love with him for eternity. Gosh! My dear! It`s wonderful! His behavior, words all impression that he made on me is in my heart and my minds. Thank U so much for such a character as he. He`s very strong guy and has a miracle power. Oh my Godr30; I`m going mad. And all these feelings are because of U! *embracing Em*
Gustavr30; What a pity U`d killed him. I liked him very much. He always was so intelligent and serious. He was a savior of the base. He only wanted to live. Butr30; angels are dying too. He sacrificed himself for others and I respect him for it. My table was covered with tears when I`d read about burning his body. I couldn`t calm myself and went to the kitchen for drinking a glass of water. The second gold rule for me in creating fan fiction: make your reader cry; only through the pain and sorrow he or she can realize your own feelings that were passed through your story.
Georgr30; I only wanted to swear him in dirty. R-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r *angry* How could he made such a terrible thing with alive person?! How? I will never understand people who use violence. I hate them. The humanity in our world is disappearing in each beating of the human clocks and the awful thing r12; we`re not doing anything to save it inside us. I`m so afraid. I`m afraid that the 3rd World War will begin. I don`t want it. I only want the peace in our small world. Only thatr30; And Georgr30; He was blinded by the fear of death. He is so foolish. So foolish... He had no right to ruin another`s feelings. He knew that Tom and Bill are not different to each other. Friendship ended when the fear and betrayal are appeared on its way.
After reading this very moment my body was shaking:
r0;Fight, Bill,r1; Tom begged. He reached one hand up to the danachi, fingers just grazing across Billr17;s cheek. r0;Please... I love you.r1;
As the words were out of his mouth, hands closed around Tomr17;s biceps again. A strong arm was around his waist, hauling him up and back. Tom sobbed and pain shot through his side. He could feel his own death as surely as he could feel Billr17;s for where was all this energy to go once it destroyed the danachi?
Tom groaned helplessly. r0;I love you,r1; he breathed, knowing Bill couldnr17;t hear him. r0;I love you.r1;
He clenched his teeth, forcing his eyes open as the energy around them rose another level. In front of him, Billr17;s head was raised. Tom felt a jerk go through him as the danachir17;s eyes locked onto his own. He felt a soft breeze on his face and heard Billr17;s voice shoot through both his ears.
r0;I love you.r1; r12; These three words are magical, Em. People can fight for it, people can fly because of it, people can breathe with it and inhale the fresh air of the future. They screw up their eyes under the sun of tenderness. Lover30; As Moliere said: the best evidence of love is to become subordinate to the person who U love. They can`t live without each other. They can`t sleep at night without warm breath somewhere in the lips or neck. I love their love, Em. Kaulitz twins saved my life once, and I will thank them for the rest of my life.
There are still two questions in my mind:
1) Why did U call the creature as r0;Danachir1;? What is the etymology of this word?
2) r0;Ahr13r1; *scratching my head*. I didn`t catch the meaning. Maybe it`s a kind of abbreviation? Could U explain me? :)
*looking at the size of the comment and open a mouth* I hope it isn`t very big)))
Hah, this is my FIRST English comment! Congratulate me!)))
Thank U so much that U have done with my head (I absolutely went mad XD).
Thank U for the tears that I`ve presented to U through reading your wonderful story.
Thank U for the miracle of Love that U have showed me. I know many sides of this feeling and U give me the new one. Thank so-o-o much.
Best regards,
Chris.
P.S. Please remember those words that I have written to U in private message. I always prepare to present your work to the Russian fans ^_____^
Kissing your cheeks for million times :)

This was an amazing story. You crafted such an intricate and well-thought out universe for the characters, and you did a lovely job of building the relationship between Bill and Tom. I love this ending, that we're left with some uncertainty, but still a feeling of relief that they're going to be okay. Fantastic.
Author's Response: Thanks so much - I really appreciate all your comments and I'm glad you liked it.
Date: 01/03/10 07:05 am Title: Chapter 16
I..... I.... it's over??? Is it really over already?? :o I was not prepared at all for that!! Okay, the first thing I want to say to you is a big: thank you! *applauses*
This story has been one of my favourites from the very beginning. I've read this regularly for as long as I can remember and... Well, okay, not as long as I can remember but, seriously, reading this has felt like a big journey to me. It has kept me captivated since day one.
It had made ma want to read more every time and it made picturing everi single scene easier than I ever thought possible. And right noe I just HAVE to get back to the Gustav's death- scene. I remember it so well and I remember how much I actually cried during reading it! :// I think that alone proves something about your skills.
The plot was great and the characters were awesome too. And I could tell about every single one, where they're coming from. And believe me, not everyone can do that.
I'm sorry for the lack of reviewing in this whole story, but hey, better later than never, right? :3 Gahh, Okay, there's still one thing I must say: They should make this story into a movie!! o___o it would be so awesome and you would definitely win the Academy awards! ;P
Okay, I think that's about it... So one more time, thank you!^^ I'll stay tuned and see what you'll come up next! :)
xoxo, abz
Author's Response: Thank you so much for your review- I really appreciate it! I'm so happy you liked the story :)
