Ok ladies! I'm all caught up and this makes me very sad. Because now I have to wait. *twiddles thumbs*

First off, for a recent review...love this new tidbit about Howie. It makes him seem vulnerable and likeable. Next, I'm also very interested in Brian's storyline. It's like everything he believed was wrong (or so he feels). I wonder if he's going to reveal who he really was in his former life and how the others will react.

Ladies, this story is incredible. Seriously. I'm so glad I started reading. I absolutely love it and I should let ya'll know that I am a VERY picky ff reader. So thank you for this story so far. It's so different, very well written, and has so many layers. I love how deep it is and it doesn't just gloss over the BSB or anything but looks into humanity as a whole and them as deeper people. I love this. It's EPIC and I'm gonna put this story up there with one of my favorites. :)

Author's Response: LOL, hopefully we'll have a new chapter up soon. Howie...it's like AJ said, there's always layers, even with Howie :). Brian, man you love reading his storyline, we love writing it for the same reasons. I mean where do you go when you learn (in his eyes) that everything you lived for and believed in was a lie? We are so flattered you love our story so much. It just means so much because of all the work we put into making this story the best that it can be, We try our best to give depth beyond the "ewww zombies" awesomeness (cause how do you not love zombies lol), and show there's more than one plot running through. Thank you again so much Sel for all this praise and love. :)

Can I just say that I love the fact that they have a dog wih them...and that it's Nick's dog. Playful :)

Author's Response: LOL, what's an epic without a loyal dog along? Hehehe. And of course it had to be Nick's, it just wouldn't have worked with anyone else right? :)

Alright; after... lord knows how long, I FINALLY caught up with this story. My gosh, I don't know WHY I waited this long to read this precious gem of this fanfic site, but in a sense, I'm kinda glad I did because it FINALLY gave me something good to read. As I've shared before, I have been this interested in a story since Mare's Thirteenth Step. This story is amazingly written, so vivid and descriptive, not that I thought it would be anything less, given the authors that came together to collab on this story. But it was amazing how a visual image played in my head the WHOLE time I was reading the story. I was just blown away at how acute and natural all the dialogue and interactions came. I was seriously watching a movie by just reading. I seriously can't say enough about this story, but... keep up the good work, as if ya'll won't. :P I seriously look forward to the upcoming chapters. Okay, I'm gonna stop my review here before I post a novel. Until the next review for the next chapter! :)

Author's Response: Reb, you are awesome for saying all this. We're totally flattered that you're comparing this to one of Mare's awesome stories. We try to hard to give the complete picture, so you saying it's like a movie in your head really means a lot. Seriously, thank you so much for all the compliments! It means a lot. :)

I was wondering where Nick was! Lol at him singing Thriller. I can totally see that!

Author's Response: LOL Nick's mind + our random brains = Thriller love. But seriously, if the world ended and Nick had to battle zombies, of course he'd be singing Thriller hehe.

I love to see how the different characters are starting to come together. Very cool. And I'm interested as to why some people weren't infected.

*turns the page* lol

Author's Response: Thanks. There's a reason...it's...*static*

Great chap! Poor Sam seems like he's not doing too well. And how scary for Brian!

Author's Response: Thankies! Brian...we're so mean to him... lol

Great chapter! Ladies, I'm loving this. Sorry I'm not reviewing a lot but I'm still here. My favorite chaps are AJ's :) Of course. Lol. Y'all seem to be getting in his head well.

Author's Response: Thanks! And hey it's okay if you don't review every single chapter, you're still letting us know what you think of it, and it's appreciated :). Not surprised your fave chapters are AJ's lol. And thanks! AJ's mind is a scary place to be ya know lol, but I kinda love it.
