No prob! (RE leaving a review). I had nearly 700 backlogged stories to toss a review on before I got "brave" enough and began my "project" to go back and say something on all past reads... so after the first couple dozen I did in the beginning that started out as a copy/paste with a tacked on tailored sentence or two I had to really cut that down and just spam paste 1 of a few prewritten responses lol. SO FEW authors are still around and/or respond I figured I'd rather just say something and not worry about anyone being off-put by it /shrug. Anyways! If you browse the stories posted in the past year-ish you'll see they DO get decent hits for reads!
Also apparently TH is still considered a "small band" (considering their youtube and Bill's IG are JUST passing 1mil subs after SO LONG!) but they've gotten a chunk of attention with Bill being on that 'steal my show' show and going on tour, so THF may also get a wave of new readers and writers too?
I *personally* am actually not a fan of Billshido, and its mostly because of my (again) *personal* preference of not thinking Bushido is attractive at all - so how DARE he touch Bill LOL (lol sorry!) So it's VERY rare that I read a story with Billshido showing up in the main or side pairing alongside Bill/Tom (I personally wont read anything without Bill/Tom as a main pairing), but something about "Silent Bill" made it as an exception to the Billshido 'rule' -- which happens with a few of my hard-passes when using the story filters, like major char death, mpreg, gender bending etc. It also helps that the other stuff I've read of yours was funny/cute/interesting.

I have left a review on other stories of yours, but wanted to say that I enjoyed this one too! Bill as a mute vampire was a pretty cool concept, and when I got to the end and suddenly realized he never bothered to learn ASL and STILL is against it lol. What a pain in the ass he is.
Author's Response: Hello there! Just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to leave a review, I really appreciate knowing there are still readers out there enjoying these messy but fun little stories I wrote so long ago, it's actually tempting to start a new one, I miss Billshido!

I love toms reaction, that he's not immediate like " YES PLEASE FOREVER WITH MY LOVE" like you see in most vampire storis *cough* twilight *cough* but he has some common sense! For once, ad lest.
Author's Response: Gah, this was my 2nd story (after the Digging series) and it's pretty rough, and I'm not sure how I truly feel about being sucked into the Vampire Genre Vortex. But I'd gotten a mute, disappearing Bill into my head, and thought, "why not give him pointy teeth, too?" I never read the Twilight series or watched the movies. Teenage Vampire Love is not my thing (unless it's a Bill/Tom Teenage Vampire Love story...but that's different!). Last books I read on the subject were Anne Rice's, so it's been a loooooonnnnng time. I kind of wanted to make this one an "average kind of Tom" meets "mute, disappearing Bill," so here it is! (and I'm kind of missing the Asperger's Tom, too...and cupcake porn....man, that was a fun story to write!) Thanks for reviewing, Burning Hole, it gives me more reasons to keep on writing!

I quite literally figured it out mid-chapter, that Bill actually disappeared and it just wasent Tom thTa went like 'oh guess I can't see him.' God I feel like an arse now.
(To my defence I will have you know I just finished Cupcake factory and still have Asperger-Tom stuck to my brain.)
But yeah! Love it! (Love both actually. A lot. Especially Aspergers-Tom)

Yay! Responses! *skittles partah!* Crazy!Persis is slightly fun but I like it when she's nice too and there wasn't enough of that. :'( I hope that Miami Heat goes fast in that case because there needs to be more TOm/Bushido... This is like only story were I see the triangle converging like this and actually enjoy it... Maybe a little more than I'd like to admit. You're welcome! I always reply to my favorite stories and this is DEFINITELY my favorite vampire story! Now if only there was a similar one with Tom as the vampire... (I'm of course excluding my 'Bite me, Bitch' since I don't want to be THAT egotistical!)
Author's Response: Yikes, I missed answering this review! Poor Persis, I totally just used her as the proverbial bad guy... I'm so glad you liked Silent Bill; I'm still considering a sequel, because it would be a lot of fun to do a love triangle, and I too can see that happening here. I'm kind of jonesing for some Tomshido...I'll have to check out yours!

Ok ok ok ok, longer review. I LOVE this story!!!! I am a Persis fan and I REALLY want her to return to sanity. I also wanna see some Tom/Bu action going on, that kiss was not NEARLY enough!!! Please please please please please please PLEASE make a sequel with all the elements! I want some fun Newborn!Tom moments!!!!! (Plus it's hard to find such a good vampire fic as this one)
Author's Response: I love newborn vampire Tom, too! And Persis would be fun, but I think her crazy is fun. Maybe some Tom/Bu... Hmmm...They're my favorite pairing, actually. I will be keeping it in mind! (see what reviewing can get you? Thanks for taking the time to write!)
Date: 01/15/15 06:13 pm Title: Chapter 14
SEQUEL!!! Puh-lease let this be your thing for this year!!!!
Author's Response: I've thought about it...maybe, once Miami Heat is finished...

So I have been digging to find things I havent yet read, and I'm glad I found this, but not too pleased with the cliffhanger :P but I forgive you because I know your efforts are being put to fabulous use with The Karmic twins. :)
Author's Response: Cliffhanger!! And here I thought it was a happy ending! I did consider writing a sequel, though. Every now and then it pops into my head...Not sure, though - I still have other stories to get to! I'm glad you read this one (my second story!). I know it was a bit rough, and vampire tales are WAAAYYY overdone, but I had a lot of fun with it. Thanks so much for letting me know you enjoyed it!

Little suckers...loll. This is interesting, I feel like, personally, muteness would be hard to adjust to, lol. Hearing only his own sex noises, sounds disconcerting. :P
Date: 12/14/13 11:23 am Title: Chapter 14
Cool story. All members of Bill's pack are very interesting and unique. Tom and Bill's romance is perfect. I wish they fell more remorse about killing people, but they are vampire after all.
Is there a sequel? I'd like to read it.
Author's Response: I'm so happy you read this one! I had a lot of requests for a sequel, but no one has reviewed it in so long i forgot all a out it. Guess i need to revisit the idea...rnrnrnrn
Date: 12/09/12 10:09 am Title: Chapter 14
it was great!!! i want a sequel please... i love it completely all ..... :D
Author's Response: I'm so glad you liked it! I'm going to be cleaning up my Digging stories and then I might do a sequel for this one, we'll see. Thanks for letting me know how much you enjoyed it!

nothing like a fantastic vampire blow job in the shower!
Author's Response: I know, huh!
Date: 07/12/12 06:32 pm Title: Chapter 9
stupid georg :(
Author's Response: Love that you have a comment for every chapter! Bill walking around naked like it's the easiest thing in the world - yeah, I'd pay to see that. And the lap thing... Tom's going to be just fine, and yes, Georg is stupid. Thanks for all your reviews, makes me happy to know you're out there!

bill's so sexy @_@
Date: 07/12/12 09:17 am Title: Chapter 6
i was worried about Tom, but then I thought about it realistically and reasoned with myself, "well, the main character can't just DIE all of a sudden, can he?" so then I felt better :)
Date: 07/12/12 08:44 am Title: Chapter 5
i love bill's affinity for sitting in other people's laps. it's adorable in a sexy kind of way. the fact that he's mute just makes him seem so much more innocent... and i would LOVE to see some nude photos of bill ;)
Date: 07/12/12 08:25 am Title: Chapter 4
i loved the build up between bill and kay. it's adorable knowing that someone wants bill that badly.
Date: 07/11/12 09:37 pm Title: Chapter 3
bill's lack of sound is making me insane...
Author's Response: chuckling silently.... no evil intentions there, I assure you.
Date: 07/11/12 08:57 pm Title: Chapter 2
their kisses are so sweet! right now, i'm convinced that bill's a ninja.
Date: 07/11/12 06:27 pm Title: Chapter 1
You're going to think that I'm stalking you, but I made a promise to myself that I'd leave you a review on every chapter of the next story I read by you. i really like this one so far, and I think I can relate to Tom's character a lot. I've been having trouble making friends in college because I'd rather just be by myself and I find everyone else to be boring. Of course, from the title, I'm assuming Bill's even worse off, so I'm looking forward to reading more and seeing how things develop :D
Author's Response: Aw, a stalker! Feeling the love. And not liking people does not equal having trouble finding friends! I learned when I was six or seven that most of the kids I met were as interesting as dried out hotdogs, and the older I got, the more I realized how true that was. Hence, Tom's character in this story. Lord knows I'd rather live in my own head than have a conversation about someone's boyfriend or, god forbid, someone's brat. Hate kids. Hate em. Anyway, this wasn't my favorite story, I thought it ended up a bit fluffy, but I'm glad you're reading and enjoying so far!
