This is one of the funniest things I’ve ever read, in any fandom. I was lurking on the Apex thread and cracked up at the very notion of the twins co-authoring a G/G fic. Somehow, I think it would have turned out exactly like this.
First, the mere title and authors’ names were hilarious, and the banner was a hoot.
I love how you took so many fandom and writing cliches and made them work to gently poke fun. It was absolutely witty and brilliant parody.
It’s amusing that both brothers love to use exclamation points when they write. Bill’s charming way of describing everything in great detail and using that awful purple prose was extremely spot-on for some very young, new writers. (Although, fortunately, most learn to break the habit.)
I cackled at the idea of them writing a book on shoes, but then shamefully admitted to myself that I would probably buy it if they did. Just for the pictures, of course.
Their personalities were so cliche for the fandom – Tom being such a “boy” and Bill being so self-absorbed. That’s why it was so, so funny. The definition of squee really got me giggling. Bill’s increasing blackmail threats and wild outfits, his breaking the fourth wall to describe his current masterpiece of hair, and his repeated insistence on consideration with his brother: it was comedy gold. (I have to say, if anyone could make a chainmail tux work, it would have to be Bill.)
I swear I’ve read that exact same het sex scene numerous times in yaoi fanfiction when a gross, yucky girl seduces one of the poor, clueless boys. It was hilariously awful but made me laugh and cringe, so job well done!
All in all, this was absolutely a treat. Thanks for sharing your talent!
Author's Response: I quite enjoy writing crackfic/parody fic, so I'm glad you enjoyed it :D
lol... you saying you'd only buy the book for the photos reminds me of how men claim to only like Playboy for the articles XD
ita that Bill could probably make a chainmail tux look amazing, lol!
Thanks for reading/reviewing

This was great! I read that thread, then came straight here and found this gem waiting for me. Everything about Bill in this story is amazing and hilarious, and I love how he writes!! You captured the whimsical twinnieness of their relationship weally weally well! I really like the idea of Tom and Bill writing fic. Could we maybe have more from you? *poke poke* But then again, this story is pretty complete in itself. This is great!
Author's Response: I'm glad you liked it! I had a ton of fun writing it... I love crackfic. As for a sequel... the G's might write some revenge twincest XD Thanks for reading/reviewing!

OH MY GOD THIS WAS HILARIOUS. The comment that I made on LJ still stands. Seriously, marry me. *_* lol.
Within the first paragraph, I was laughing so hard that my roomie was like, "Dude, wtf is so funny?" And, you know, I can't tell her (she doesn't know about the ~fiction~) so I had to make something up about getting spam mail about pills for growing chest hair. >_>
Anyhow, there were too many hilarious things; if I tried to quote the lines that left me cracking up, I'd be quoting the entire fic, pretty much, lol. But, my biggest favorites, if I'd be forced to pick, would be:
Obviously, he was as talented at writing fiction stories as he was at playing guitar (and playing drums. and matching clotheses. and making people orgasm.) He was a brilliant author and could probably write a book that would outsell the Bible if he put his mind to it. That's what had me cracking up so hard that my roomie questioned me to begin with. XD
“The fans like the story the way it is!” Tom said. “KaulitzGurl89 said she loved it! Little_Miss_Sexxxi said ‘squee’!” Lol, oh, Tom. I can see him being so proud of getting a comment like that irl, too. x] He'd be so delighted!
You share a placenta, you think you know a guy. I was laughing just as hard as I had been at the very beginning, lol!
And, of course, all of Bill's rather... erm, creative synonyms for "erect penis". XD
Oh my goodness, excuse me while I run off and stalk the rest of your fics! *skips off like a loon*
Author's Response: Omfg, pills for growing chest hair. Does that even exit? Best excuse ever XD
Glad it made you laugh! Thanks for reading/reviewing :-)

I'm pretty sure this might be your best work yet. Congratulations! I laughed so hard I scared the shit out of my puppy and she jumped off my bed and whined at the door. Tom is an AWESOMESAUCE author. Like, for srsly. And Bill can rock some chainmail rhinestones!
Will we ever get to know what sayth the G-Men? Oh, and the th_apex thread link doesn't work.
Author's Response: Lol, thanks. I love crackfic. There's so much less pressure!
Ha, should the G's write some retaliatory twincest?
I just realized it's a locked post! So you can't read it unless you're a member of th_apex. It was an entry about the MTV Brazil interview. It was just ppl saying that Tom probably writes secret G/G fic and then me saying [Bill's input would just be trying to make Tom include really lengthy descriptions of Bill's outfits/appearance in the fics.
"Make sure you mention that my eyes are the color of honey in the sunlight," he'd insist. "Tom, can you say I'm wearing a chainmail tuxedo with a top hat made completely of rhinestones to Georg and Gustav's wedding?!!! Put in that everyone stares at me in awe and barely looks at the grooms because I'm so distractingly beautiful!!!"
And then threaten to wear it irl if Tom doesn't comply.]
