This is cute, I really enjoyed reading!

Author's Response: Thank you! Happy to hear you like it!

Reading your earlier reply, let me tell you, I feel you so much on the writing thing. I have soooo many ideas for stories I want to write and I'm so excited about them, but I can't focus on actually getting them done. Until one day it just snaps and I can write for hours without stop. I am also very good at forcing chapters to happen, but I know that doesn't work for everyone, so I totally get you.

This story was lovely, and I hope to see more from you. Thank you!

Author's Response: Thank you for reviewing! I'm glad I'm not the only one who experiences this when trying to write. It helps me feel less alone, or less inept, one or the other lol. In general, forcing myself to write never works out well for me. Because for some reason, the creative part gets lost, and I end up feeling like I'm writing a summary. I've read through things I've read when I've pushed myself to write, and to me it reads like "This happened...and then this happened...and then this happened..." I don't know, for me I think it's better when my mind takes over the idea of its own volition, because then it's sort of like my stories write themselves. Of course, I never know when that sort of motivation will come again, and typically when it does it only lasts for a few days, or if I'm lucky, two or three weeks. Then all I want to do is write, and it's all I can think about. Very annoying, and very disappointing, when it happens at work, and by the time I have time to write, that mindset is gone again. I'm beginning to think it might be better to write stories in full before I even post the first chapter, even though I think that would take some of the fun out of it, but at least I wouldn't be disappointing people.

That was really sweet. I love the dynamic here and that's how I've kinda always seen them. A sweet relationship full of love and understanding. Tom forever protective and Bill confiding in him about such things. I really liked it. Going to see if you have more. 💚💚💚

Author's Response: Thank you for your review! Yeah, they're just adorable. I still love the twins after so many years and I admit I've always been a little envious of their relationship. This was always meant to just be a cute one-shot, and at the time I wrote it I never really intended to ever post it because I didn't think it was very good. So there won't be anymore chapters here, but I've been thinking about picking up Das Leiden again. It's so old but I still want to finish it. I have a huge problem with focus and motivation, so even if I really want to write, it's difficult to be able to sit down and concentrate long enough to write in a way that I'm happy with, instead of rushing things or drawing a blank. It's like my mind is too scattered sometimes - a lot of the time - that it just becomes really frustrating and I lose interest. Recently I was listening to TH again, after I don't know, maybe three years or so? And watching old Tokio Hotel TV stuff, and god I miss this band. I love that people are still interested in reading and writing stories here. I have two new story ideas, but this is the problem I always end up with: I get ideas for stories and get so excited about writing them, but a lot of times when I try to write them, I just can't. I don't know what it is. It's not like writer's block, it's more that I just can't concentrate, my mind kind of jumps around a lot. And then other times, when I'm able to write, it's like I'm hyper focused, and I don't want to focus on anything else, and that's when my stories get written. I can't even tell you how many stories I want to write, in this fandom and others, which I haven't even started yet. I have a list. There's got to be at least a dozen, almost all of them are chapter stories. Sorry, that was really long-winded. Thank you for reading!
