Oh no!!!! How sad! I hope they make things up!
Author's Response: I hate a sad ending! although "sad" can mean many things.

Aww, so this is it! Thank you for such a sweet story. This really feels like a whole other universe, much longer, fuller and complete than the count of words in it would expect. As I've said, I don't usually read sometrhing like this, but I am happy that I did this time. And what a sweet idea of how they'd live long after this. :)
Author's Response: That's really neat to hear that you stepped out of your comfort zone for this one. I'm glad you enjoyed it :) Thanks for reading/reviewing!

I went through such a gamut of emotions in this chapter! In the beginning, it was like the sparkle was gone, I was feeling so sad along with Tom. Then Bill Pan showed up, determined to capture Tom - to steal him! Once the two of them were together again, everything just clicked.
I could see the gears turning in Bill's head, and I wondered if it was going to work for him as it did, apparently, for young Tom...my heart just totally warmed. Seriously. Eyes. Hearts. ♥~♥ Bill was so wary, but he had a place in that family right away! It was just perfect.
The scene with Tom giving Bill his plectrum. Again, eyes. Hearts. ♥~♥ I just. This whole scene. I adored the way they shared Pan's lines between them, too. Truly halves of a whole.
I was a little worried, when Bill wanted to go back to Never Land, that they wouldn't make their way there and back together - but they did, and it was perfect. This is just such a beautifully crafted fairy tale, the spirit of Pan was strong with it! I really feel this has such a happy ending, along with the post-script that should be a little epilogue you ought to write. :D?
*happy sigh* Bill Pan forever. What a grand adventure it was.
Author's Response: Of course there has to be a happy ending! You know how I feel about BillundTom not getting a happy ending (-.-) As far as an epilogue, maybe? I'd maybe be more open to writing a sequel someday (if the right plot struck me).
Thank you for coming on the adventure with me~ Bill Pan forever<333

I totally loved it *_* Peter Pan was the first book I read when I could (although that was more because I knew it by heart, word by word) and the story still gives me some sort of nostalgic feeling. And you blended it into the TH fandom so well! I really enjoyed reading :)
Author's Response: Glad to hear it. Thanks for reading/reviewing :)

Really interesting idea with the peter splitting into 2. I love that they got the best of both worlds in the end.
Author's Response: thank you, glad you enjoyed :)

Lol! Bill. "I've come to steal you."
Eeeeee!! That was a *~wonderful~* story! One that I will surely reread in its entirely very soon.
I love that they will split their time between the two worlds, though the end notes are kinda sad. Basically their parents had to raise them the rest of their lives O.o
*pictures the twins forever rolling around in Never Land* Hehe :3
Author's Response: lol, but their parents were people who desperately wanted to be parents, so they were happy to do it! Idk, my dad always says that the most fun he ever had was when me and my siblings were little, so I guess my views are skewed by that. I would totally love to be the parents to Bill Pan and Tom forevers~ They'd be so fun (n_n)
Of course, you are welcome to imagine any future you want for Bill and Tom and their parents! thanks for reading/reviewing :)

I love everything about this story. The lovely characters, the funny and cleaver dialogs, the awesome plot, the amazing banner. Huff.
It was a great tribute to an awesome story such as that of Peter Pan's. It was a pleasure to read it.
Author's Response: Thank you, that's very kind! The banner is amazing, I agree. Nobody does it better than umetnica. Thanks for reading/reviewing :)

Awww Its over?!?!!? This was a beautiful fic. I am very sad to see it go. I loved the "surely you know what a kiss is?" bit, along with everything else. The only thing I miss was you never explained how to get to neverland from there. Second star to the left and stragiht on til morning was always my favorite part for some reason. I like how they will be able to be in both places, though I worry about them growing up in the world and not ageing in neverland and how that is going to work out eventually. Maybe you can address it one day in a side fic, or not. Great work. I really loved it.
Author's Response: The actual quote from the book/play is "second to the right and straight on till morning". Disney added in the "star" bit, which I admit makes it way cuter! I thought about adding in that line, but I wanted to end with them flying out the window together, and in my mind Bill wouldn't have said that line until they were already in the air.
I have thought about that a bit (them aging). In my imagination, Bill and Tom would age a little from having a home in The World. So over the course of years and years, they would age slowly. Nobody in The World would notice that it's odd that they're aging so slowly, because their memories would adjust in accordance to Pan's whims. Eventually, their parents would grow old and die, and Bill and Tom would go back to Never Land forever, at the age of 14/15. They wouldn't be sad for long about their parents' death, because they'd cherish the good memories and think of it as just another grand adventure they had.
Thank you for reading/reviewing. I'm glad you enjoyed it :)

Please don't think I'm crazy, but I have to admit I cried a little bit when Bill came back and their mother accepted him like he'd always been there. When she handed him the plate and ruffled his hair, it was perfect.
I love how you've kept them so in-character through this whole story. Bill is telling his tall tales of fighting 100 alligators to warm up, and Tom is gloating over the fact he's the older brother. The entire scene at home was very warm and lovely and showed exactly what Bill was missing.
It was perfect to leave this open-ended. They have lots more adventures ahead of them, wherever they decide to visit. This story was amazing, and your writing is phenomenal. You have such a gorgeous, spare way of writing that I just love. Thank you for sharing this with all of us.
Author's Response: You're crazy 6_6 Just kidding! That's really sweet and lovely to hear. Thank you for all of your support. They definitely have lots more adventures ahead of them!

this story was so special. definitely one of a kind. it makes me wanna watch peter pan!! and this song....i love the song. thank you SO VERY MUCH for blessing me with a great summer by writing this fic. I needed a little bit of kid-fantasy in my life.
Author's Response: Thank you so much. It wasn't a very widely-read or much-reviewed fic, but I felt like the small group that stuck with it were really with me on this little adventure :)

Aww :(.
But such a lovely fairytale you have here! I've been gone for a while, so I had to catch up with everything, but I love to way yopu guide this story. It's so innocent, but still of so big issues. I think yuou are doing great justice to the original Peter Pan with youir adaptation. :)
Author's Response: thank you so much :-) the final chapter is up. I hope you enjoy.

Oh, wow, that was a nice twist. Never saw that coming.
A lovely (but also a sad) update. I really enjoyed Tinkebell's story, though.
Author's Response: yay, glad you enjoyed it! thank you for your review. the final chapter is now up.
Date: 08/31/11 06:03 am Title: Beneath Hangman's Tree
Well, I never would have guessed that!
The idea of Tinkerbell rotting away in that tree waiting for Peter is terribly sad. But not quite as sad as the idea of all of Neverland forgetting Peter Pan.
Author's Response: I know, the moral for girls is totally, "don't love Pan because you'll die or end up stuck in a tree". It's kinda sad that Never Land forgot Peter, but he wouldn't have wanted them to miss him. He'd want them to have fun~ thanks for your review! final chapter is up.
