Author's Response:
Haha, that is seriously funny! (I'm sorry, but it is..) Let's just put it like this, there is a good reason why I never read fanfiction at school, I'd be SO embarrassed if that happened to me!
rnrnIt just had to end like that, I'm afraid. I guess I could have made a happy ending, but that would just go against everything I was trying to communtcate withe the rest of the story, so.. I'm glad you still liked it, though! It makes me smile..seriously, I grin like an idiot everytime someone says that ;)

ug. this was so heartbreaking. very very well written, but heartbreaking. I hope your next project isn't so heartbreaking. thanks for sharing though.
Author's Response: Thank you for reading it anyway! :) And you're very welcome!

Thanks!!! It was such a beautiful story to read. So full of love and sacrifice, even if it hurts.
I'm gonna ask you to let me translate it to spanish, I'd be so glad to do it :)

Author's Response:
I have no words... Other than YES of course you can! :D Wow, I feel so honored! I'd like to ask you to send me a copy of it after, though.. (Not that I understand spanish, but it would be fun to have!)
Thank you!

I don't know if I want to cry or just smile. He is doing what he has to do, no? He has to let the other one go away. He has to.
Author's Response:
I'd say both ;)
Yes, he has to..

What, are you kidding? This can't be the end. I have cried through the whole fic. Damn, I'm still crying. This was really good. The best in so many months. I give you the golden cookie reward for this one. So great. You wrote with such passion & emotions. The best! Truly!
Author's Response: Naaaw! Thank you so much! This really made my day! :D And thanky you so much for the golden cookie reward (whatever that may be), I will put it somewhere good that everyone can see! XD

This offers closure and openings at the same time. It seemed like Tom offered an opening to Bill, an invitation back to old times, but Bill didn't take it. Tom understands why Bill exiled himself? That's sad then, that they still say goodbye for an indefinite period of time. But perhaps it's for the better. They will never be truly happy, truly in love but they've done it for each other. That in itself is an act of love, resigning to the roles and lifestyles the world expects of them. But even still, they still hold each other higher than anyone else in their lives. Man, this was damn heartbreaking to read.
Author's Response: I'm not sure if Tom's actually offering anything, I think it's more like him telling Bill that he understood his reason for leaving, and that he was sorry for not being able to give Bill what he wanted? But yes, I guess it's still kind of an open ending, since it offers no definite closure. Thank you so much for reading and reviewing, it makes me SO happy to hear your opinion on it! :)

;_; Oh Bill. I admire him for doing this to himself, and to Tom. He really loves Tom more than anything, to sacrifice all he had, everything he was to not ruin Tom's life, looking out for Tom's greater good. But, was doing this REALLY for Tom's greater good? Because it clearly affected him, left him heartbroken. And Bill tool So much pain.
Author's Response: Of course he had to come back for the wedding, Tom did ask him to, and he could never say no to his request! ;) I think we will never know if it really was for Tom's greater good, since he's eliminated the opportunity to ever find out..
Date: 05/09/10 01:10 am Title: Part I - Journey to the past
Aww, man! It was depressing enough to learn Bill abandoned everyone, and now it's even worse to learn he returns on Tom's wedding. I suspect the reason Bill left... and wow, maybe it would have been better for him to stay away. I wonder how Bill lives in Paris, if he is always haunted by what happened. Like, is he cheerful? Seems like he'd never be.
Author's Response: I think Bill will never be genuinly cheerful after leavig Tom.. Wow, that's kind of depresing, actually. I feel so mean now :(
Date: 05/08/10 10:14 pm Title: Part I - Journey to the past
It probaly is very subtle, but I can be a little slow... i really wish you would post Tom's Letter if you ever finish it....^.^
Author's Response: Haha, so can I sometimes! About the letter, I've already made a draft, but I'm not quite pleased with it, so we'll see.. ;)
Date: 05/08/10 08:46 pm Title: Part III - Parting
NOOO please dont emd it there!! there's so much To read, please dont leave me here swinging on a string of a cliff!! please write more, i love it or tell me why bill left!! PLEASE!! this story is like putting a bowl of ice cream infront of a starving person...!!!
Author's Response:
I'm so sorry, but this really was the end! :( I wil admit I have been plaing with the thought of writing a sidething to this story, but if I ever did (okay, honestly, I have already been scribbling a bit), it would be Toms letter..
So, I thought the reasopn why Bill left wasn't that hard to understand. Sublte, yes definitely, but not unclear.. I'm a bit confused now. What to do with this situation? *ponders* I guess, if you want a deeper explanation, contact me! ;)
Mmmm...ice cream.. That is so mean! Now I realy crave ice cream *goes to check freezer, finds delicious ice cream, and is thoroughly disappointed that it's turned bad* I didn't even KNOW ice cream could turn bad! I am NOT pleased.. :(
Thank you so much for reading and reviewing! ..and please accept my humble apology for being a tease!

I like it, ot's really well writen lets hope to see what comes next ;)
Author's Response: Thank you! :)

Aw. I remember bookmarking this video quite a long time ago and loving it, and seeing someone talk about writing about it. I never thought I'd get around to seeing it, but the title reminded me of it and it lured me in, haha.
This is really sad. When they were in the gazebo and Tom is asking Bill those questions, like the song, it made me cry. I hated the bride and in a way, hated Tom in this just because it made me feel angry for Bill.
The ending made me really sad, too. I was really wishing that Tom would have changed his mind and left that girl, but that was kind of an unrealistic expectation.
Listening to the song, I would have never come up with such a good idea for a story. Thanks for taking the time to write this!
Author's Response:
I simply love that video! Keep watching it over and over again, and it makes me so sad everytime! The song "Liar" was playing on repeat the entire time I was writing this! *Is in love with that song* ;)
I feel kind of bad that I made you cry, though I have to admit it was kind of what I was going for.. I feel so mean, now!
I can't find it in me to be mad at Tom in this story, though, since he didn't really do anything wrong. He was trying to give Bill what he wanted, or at least what he thought he wanted. I think everything is mostly Bills fault. And still, I don't have it in me to blame him either.. How could I ever blame Bill for anything, right?
This story just dropped into my head, and from where, I will probably never know! Thank you so much for reading, and for reviewing!
Date: 05/08/10 03:16 pm Title: Part III - Parting
Don't hate you. While I love happy endings, this one is realistic enough not to leave me wanting. You did a very nice job with it. :)
Author's Response: I'm happy you don't hate me.. *was kind of nervous* Now, I'm just really happy I posted this! :) Thank you SO much for reading!
Date: 05/08/10 02:09 pm Title: Part III - Parting
Omg... dude.. T_T
you killed me.
Just like that...
Tragic end... I usually don't like happy ends, but when it's, Lord, that bad? Wow. ;___;
Just... Bill leaves him there... I want to cry now. How could that happen.
When I was reading it I was like, "Nooo.... Bill jump off the train. NOW." and he doesn't. :( *sobs*
I feel so angry now. XD I kind of want to kill both the twins right now. Like, let them get ran over by that freaking unforgivable train! I won't be able to get this out of my mind now. Bill just left like this. Tom, doesn't stop him good enough. T___T My heart just stopped, died, when Simone didn't mention Tom, when Bill didn't care. Oh God, I really want to cry now. XD
You wrote this so wonderfully. All three parts were tragical, but it was amazing. Tom probably won't live a very happy life with Bill gone, and left with his little wife. Bill... *shakes head* Tis terrible.
Either way, *takes deep breath* it was beautiful in all. Every feeling, emotion, real. Wow.
I believe Bill left because he wasn't there for Tom. Wait.. that didn't come out right. o.0 No, Bill left because Tom wasn't there for him! XD Yes. Bill fucked up his life. *tears*
Such an amazing fic< 3
Author's Response:
I love you reviews, I have to tell you that! They leave me utterly speechless, and with a stupid grin plastered all over my face!
I'm feeling quite mean now, though. I was actually laughing loudly when I read how upset I made you! But you can't really blame me, can you? I mean, it's just really nice to have people react to what I write, it maskes me feel like I've written something good! ;) I'm sorry that I made you sad, but I'm kind of happy about it too.. *slaps self for being cruel*
Yes, I have a grwoing suspicion that Bill fucked up his life too.. *grins evily for being plotting mastemind* Silly Bill thought he was doing the right thing though, so that has to count for something, right? ;)
Thank you SO much for your kind words! Good feedback makes me want to write more! I really hope this doesn't put you off from reading other fics I might write in the future.. I promise I'll make them a bit more cheerful! ;)
Date: 05/08/10 01:30 pm Title: Part III - Parting
): Aw.... thats the end ):
Uhh i hoped they will be together but i guess it was the best(?)
Anyway you wrote a GREAT story (LL
XoXo
Author's Response:
To be honest, I did play around with the thought of giving this story a happy ending, but as I was writing the final scene, it just didn't feel right. It was like the whole thing had just lead up to a kind undetermined ending.. What happens next, I do not know.
rnThan you so much for reading, and for your kind words!
Date: 05/06/10 02:52 am Title: Part II - The confrontation
god, this is very well written but its been so heartbreaking. i hope the end isn't this heartbreaking. and if it is, i hope your second story isn't so tragic for either of them.
Author's Response: Actually, I make myself sad every time I read this one over.. That's completely normal, right? My second story is definitely more cheerful than this one! ;) I can't just write these kind of storie, you know, I'd give myself a depression..haha!
Date: 05/05/10 06:41 pm Title: Part II - The confrontation
This is wonderful. So realistic, the emotion is so powerful and there. The idea of the boys grown up, Georg with a child, Tom getting married, Gustav being erm.. Gustav? And Bill is just. O:
I wonder why Bill left, maybe.. he felt unneeded? He felt no love towards him? Idk.
I feel so sorry for Tom, when Bill says no... Especially to the "still love me" part. The description is very vivid and I could see it all in my mind. Tom has a realistic persona, his reaction to Bill was.. wow. Bill should feel guilty, and Andreas acted like a real friend. A friend, who felt betrayed by one of the closets people by him, and walks away. Very true action. Bill is walking depression in this. His presence broke everyone. His mother, cried, father, ah, I forgot what he did.. A hug was it. I don't remember if he cried. :/ The G's were hurt, and Tom.... oh Tom. :( That was devastating for him. It's like, Bill shows up to tell Tom how much he hates him now. Bill is bound to break into tears from his jealousy, pain, depression, and GUILT. I'm surprised he didn't burst into sobs during the wedding. Tom apparently got hooked with this woman, to get his mind off Bill..? Maybe? David Jost sounded mad, but I would be too. If my rockstar ran way, I'd be like what the shit mother beep beep. XD
Anyways, so Bill sounds torn.. I picture him in this fiction thinner than he usually is. Just because. Tom in mind, when he was with Bill, looked younger...
Masks will fade away. Bill has already faded away, his mask will too. Bill is barely alive, his heart has been DEAD. Tom's is too.
This is such a glorious fan fic. I adore it deeply. I will be loving to read chapter three.
This is your first fic? It's FANTASTIC. :D Write more! I'd love to hear from your brilliance.
This fic is so real, so deep, and every word is heart breaking and intense.
Thank you for the entertainment and emotions. :)
Author's Response: First of all I have to say: Epic review is EPIC! Wow, seriously, I was SO happy when I saw this, and when I read it..I totally "naaaaw"ed out loud! :D Thank you! And the part about Gustav being, erm..Gustav?" cracked me up! He totally is.rnrnAbout the reason why Bill left; I tried to keep it subtle, but maybe I've made it too subtle? The general idea was to leave you questioning, whilst still actually knowing why. If that makes any sense? I was a bit torn about that while I was writing it, but I kind of like it like this, so..rnrnEveryone has good reason to feel betrayed, angry, sad and so on and so forth.. And Bill SHOULD feel guilty! And he does..kind of.. ;) rnrnI think Bill is a lot thinner too. The way I picture him in my head is that he's like a shadow of himself.. I think it's quite interesting how you can start picturing people in your head based on how they talk and act, without any spesific descriptions about their looks. Makes them more vivid in your head in a way. You know? I think Tom is a stronger version of himself, though. But probably a little less vibrant, if you understand. *Mind wanders off*rnrnAnd I'm back! So yes, this is my first fic! Though not the first one I've written. There's one other that was my "official first", but it's not done yet! I keep neglecting it, I'm afraid.. But when this one is complete, I might find it in me to finish that one too.. You never know! ;)rnrnThank you SO much, again, for reading and for this wonderful review! It was so much more that I ever expected! I'm really happy you like the story! It basically came out of nowhere one evening, and I spent the entire night writing it down. (Not really caring that I had school the next day, and got literally no sleep that night..) It's nice to see that other people appreciate it as much as I do! :)

So sad.. But kind of realistic I guess...
Can't wait for the final chapter. =)
