ooh wow that was an intense chapter! I as getting more and more worried about Bill, you really know how to build up the suspense! That was an entirely amazing chapter, i really can't tell you how amazing your writing is, i feel as though i'm right there with them. And i adore how you write Georg, it's incredible :)
Author's Response: ♥ Again, thank you so much. You're so generous in sharing your experience of reading fics!

oooh what another absolutely wonderful chapter! I feel frustrated for Georg, not being able to tell anyone but of course, at the same time i really don't want him to, i want him to protect the twins' realtionship. Gosh this is exceptionally well written, i keep internally 'wowing' xD it's amazing and despite the kind of negativity of the whole idea, it's so much fun to read :D aw poor Georg, now i feel bad for finding it so much fun :O anyway, off to read the next chapter :D
Author's Response: ♥ It is one of those situations where you're really caught; I'm so pleased it came across well!

oh wow, i'm so glad i started reading this. It's absolutely beautifully written! I like how it's from Georg's POV, it makes for a wonderful fic :) despite the circumstances, Bill and Tom were incredibly sexy, i guess that just comes naturally to them xD and your writing made sure of that too, it was flawless! Seriously, that was amazing ^^
Author's Response: Thank you! This fic felt like a huge achievement for me so I'm really pleased you enjoyed it! Georg was a lot of fun to get into, too, so just thank you so much <3

D'awwwww :) This made me very warm and fuzzy inside. And the Georg's reaction, I think, was very realistic. Not the usual "Oh, it's twincest and everyone is magically fine with it because its a fanfiction leik lol" but legitimate emotional reactions. Great job!
(100th review? whut whut! o3o)
Author's Response: 100th review for the win, lol ♥ Thank you so much, I'm really glad you enjoyed it!

Wauw. I was really surprised by the end.... I liked the story though :)
Author's Response: I'm glad you liked it, though curious what surprised you - if it was the content or the style? To me, no matter how badly the rest of the band would take the news, I like to think that their friendship would be strong enough that they'd want to try and overcome it in the end?

Wow, I can't believe I stayed up so late to finish reading this story. lol
This story is unique I think, for me at least. It's twincest that's focused on Georg (and Gustav) more than the twins, lol.
This story also has this way of making big drama from every little thing... and I dont know whether to find it unbelieveable and exaggerated, or sad because this might really be the way they live their lives.
I think you're a really good writer. :)
I'm kind of sleepy, so instead of critiquing or praising bits and peices here, i'll just say again that I think you're a really good writer. Your detail-oriented writing style reminds me of my own, except that I wish I was as good as you.
Great fic.
Author's Response: Eee, well I'm glad you got really into the fic even if it kept you up late! Means a lot that you thought it was unique. I think the big dramas out of little things were mainly Georg's perceptions - everything seems a Big Deal when you're having a stressed time. I hope that they don't feel that way often though. Thanks so much for the review ♥

personally I think this is boring but aside from that it's very good written, just thought I would give it a try since many says it's good...
Author's Response: I'm glad you gave it a try, even if it wasn't to your tastes. It's a very character-driven fic, with the focus on Georg's turmoil - if that doesn't appeal then I can see why you might not like it so much. I'm glad you thought it was written well though, thank you!

This was the first fic of yours that I read, and thank goodness for that "Featured" ability! I have enjoyed everything of yours that I've read. You've got a lovely use of description, and keeping things to Georg's perspective gave such a fascinating insight from a different point of view.
"So and so finds out" stories are usually such rich story material to tap, but have the potential to go so badly when the "finding out" part is a taboo issue such as incest. I thought that you handled Georg's reactions throughout the story arc very skillfully. His progression from disgust to acceptance was quite a journey, and believable.
I also really enjoyed seeing Georg's take on the twins' dynamic; his and Gustav's little insights and the classic, "How does he do it?" "He relies on Tom." Even as I, the reader, can see through their eyes that they really rely on each other.
Bravo, good work. =) I'm so happy to have read this and now to have re-read it in preparation to review.
Author's Response: ♥ Thank you hon - I really appreciate that. I think having this as one of my first fics in the fandom probably helped me feel things out quite a bit. I think I'm still pretty surprised how much everyone enjoyed it. Glad you did too ♥

He’d never expected to be glad of being on the end of public ribbing from the twins.
So Tom never knew, and Georg never told anyone. And Tom and Bill carried on forever. Messy, messy! fun!
Author's Response: I think whether Tom never knew is more at Bill's discretion than anything else, and it was part of their story rather than Georg's which I was focusing on here. Certainly Georg never told anyone - and I like to think the twins carried on! Very messy, yes, but I think it was a hugely fun experience to write and I was kind of shocked by the positive feedback it got - so one final thank you to you for sharing this, really was appreciated!

That was how Georg and Gustav had found themselves walking into the worst interview of their lives to date. – oh god, oh god, oh god!!! O_O
Karl smiled apologetically, touching his ear piece as though he was just getting renewed confirmation before he said it. “The rumour is that twins actually aren’t here because you’ve fallen out with them, Georg? Any truth?”
Shit.- you just have to fake it, that’s all you have to do! No of course not! We’re all mates. Sure we have a row every once in a while but when you’re in everyone’s pockets like we are who wouldn’t. That’s all you have to say!!! Stick with the lie!
“It’ll be fine,” Gustav said, offering uncharacteristic reassurance. “We weathered the idiocy about Bill being gay, we can get through this.” – lol um yeah!
“How did this happen?”
“We were talking outside,” …
“I thought you’d sorted this out,” Jost said, tone infinitely calm as he folded his arms across his chest and commenced tapping his mobile against his bicep.
“Not so much,” Georg admitted, dropping his gaze to the floor. “It’s complicated.”
“Well you can un-complicate it,” Jost told him firmly. “You’re going round to see the twins now, just like you said you would in the interview.” – oh god! Crap in a bucket!
There was no option to do that though, since Jost insisted on having Georg driven to the very door and sitting in the car on the driveway until Georg went inside. It made Georg want to scream.- lol that’s awful!!! *giggles*
Tom didn’t look surprised when he opened the door this time, stepping back to let Georg in with a grin that had to be fake. He had a dressing gown on and a tissue in his hand that he held to his nose as Georg passed inside. It was all clearly constructed for any press lurking in wait to snap photos. - *shakes head and sighs*
“You really love him, huh?” Georg observed, feeling a little stunned by the depth of emotion in Tom. He felt stupid to be so surprised when he’d known the twins as long as he had. He’d always seen how close they were to each other.
“Of course I do,” Tom retorted, not even a trace of hesitation or embarrassment. He spoke as if there could never be any doubt of the fact. “He’s my twin.” – um yeah that too!
Georg met Tom’s eyes, saw the intensity there, but still couldn’t figure out whether Tom was aware of what he knew. He decided to change the subject rather than tread further in an area he still wasn’t comfortable in. He needed to speak with Bill about it first and foremost. – yeah!
He heard a soft murmur, and only realised it must have been Bill speaking when Tom asked, “Are you sure?”
Bill nodded, reaching up to touch Tom’s cheek briefly. Neither of them even bothered to look at Georg, appearing not to care that Georg was present or what he’d think. – alone huh? Yeah they do need to be alone.
“I don’t hate you,” Georg repeated, holding Bill’s gaze this time and finding himself drawing strength from seeing the hope rise in Bill’s eyes. This would be what made it easier to have this conversation, this and a week of reflecting on what he’d already known and how the new knowledge fit in. “I wanted to hate you both, because it seemed so wrong, but I don’t hate you. I couldn’t hate either of you.”
Bill reached out hesitantly to touch Georg’s hand with his own. His voice was barely a rasping shadow of what it usually managed to be, “We’re still us.” – but still it must be hard to swallow this bitter pill!
“And it surprised me,” Georg went on, squeezing Bill’s hand. “Because I suddenly remembered he was right. What I saw last week, that’s between you two, but it doesn’t make everything I’ve seen for years any less.”- such a silly boy.
Author's Response: Hehe, silly but understandably so - thank you again for sharing the reading experience with me. It's really been fantastic to see how you were finding each bit and identifying with what I was trying to portray for poor Georg!
