WHOO HOO!!!! Thank you so much!! THAT was the reaction we were hoping for! =D
Super powers would have been cool, I never thought about that... like Heroes! LOL But nope, we're going the I Am Legend route instead. This all started out as a joke about zombies, and somehow it turned into this LOL. I'm loving it, cause I've always been a huge horror movie fan but have never really written horror before. I've been watching tons of zombie movies and having a lot of fun with it!
So glad you like the big twist, and thanks so much for posting feedback!!! =D

You know, super-powers woulda been cool, I've done them in my own stories once or twice, but that's been done a lot too. Zombies is so rare in BSB fanfic, if done at all. We're totally going I Am Legend/The Stand on this one. This whole thing has been soooo fun to do cause I love horror, I write horror but come on, how can you not love zombies?
So happy you liked the gigantic turn it took hehe. Thank you!

I think I've basically shouted out my love for 4.15.12 through Twitter but I really wanted to give a proper feedback. And I should call the story Song for The Undead LOL!
Do I need to tell you guys that you ROCK?! I love love love every single word of this story, the characters, their own stories, how everything just happened so slowly... it shows pure talent!! And ZOMBIES?! Come on, how cool is that? I'm not a fan of horror movies nor books but this story has its own appeal!! I thought that the characters' immunity to the virus would turn them into some kind of superheros(just like Heroes) but I'm not complaining with how the story's going so far.
And this should be a blockbuster movie!!! I mean it!!! I am Legend can only eat dust next to this (though I heard the book was actually very good - I'm talking movie wise). I could picture every scene described in the book in my head and top of it all, I still can't shake any of it from my mind! Even when I was reading the Brian scene in his bedroom and then the bathroom (not saying what it is incase of spoilers), I shut my eyes in fear for a second!
And I couldn't sleep for a while the night I finished reading Chapter 31. So extra extra kudos for the horror effect!
Loved the website by the way!! Characters and the song fits perfectly well with the story, I'm at a loss of words besides this: I LOVED IT!
Can't wait for the next update!!!
And what happened to Nick??? I'm worried!!! The man that Jo saw in the last room of the Neuro Wing was him right? He shouldn't be affected right?!
Gosh, just update please. I'm an impatient person.
Love you both girls!! I'm giving you a huge virtual hug right now for being such talented writers!!!
It's a weird world don't you know it? It's a weird world and it won't slow down It's a weird world no matter how you roll it
*blink* Wow, Gozde thank you! Why did everyone think Heroes? LOL I find that funny. Anywho, thank you so much! The Brian scene is uber-creepy, I remember telling Julie when she showed it to me that that was definitely going to creep people out lol.
As for Nick....all I'm going to say is yes, he is the man Jo saw in the Neuro wing.
Again thank you so much! I'm so thrilled you love it so much! Yay!

Thank you so much for that amazing feedback, Gozde!!! Totally made my day! I'm thrilled you gave the story a chance and got so into it and are STILL into it, despite not being much of a horror fan. And thank you for the detailed feedback on what you liked - that's really helpful and encouraging!
The next chapter will be up Sunday, and we'll officially change the title and everything then. You'll find out what happened to Nick soon, I promise!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! =D

My pleasure! Actually the Heroes doesn't really match in any point with your story but I guess I thought they'd be Super Heroes from the summary, like they are the only survivors and that the immunity to the virus ended up as extra powers on them or something..
The story did creep me alright and I sense that you're not done with creeping so I'm getting myself used to it, LOL!
You know Rose, dear, that avatar of yours is one thing that creeps me out, in a good way! LOL.. I'm really curious about Nick's side of the story now, he won't be a zombie right?
Argh, I can ask ton of questions but I better shut up and wait for the next update!

It's my pleasure Julie!! I'm glad I could express what I really think about it!
I can't wait for the next chapter, I'll be in London though so I don't know if I can read it before next Thursday but I may find a time inbetween to read it cause I'm way too curious! And keep that promise about Nick! LOL
By the way - a very random thought as a result of lack of sleep - will be make an entrance page for Song for The Undead just like the one we have on 00Carter? The lyrics of Thriller that Rose has on her siggy, just that part of the song, it could be nice to use if you could find some pics to go along with it like a movie style.. or some vids.. I don't know, it's a very random idea but I thought if the site opened with a short movie like that it'd be VERY creepy.. Ending with that laughter "mwahhahaha" at the end, LOL..
It's a weird world don't you know it? It's a weird world and it won't slow down It's a weird world no matter how you roll it
LOL! I don't know about a movie... but who knows, it's summer, so maybe I'll get good and bored and inspired! It's a thought, anyway! Knowing me though, I would probably just end up making it really silly and use dancing zombie clips from Thriller and stuff... which is awesome, don't get me wrong, but doesn't really go with the feel of the story... Not that there's not plenty of joke stuff on the site already, I guess LOL.

Finally got to read the new chapter!!! Amazing!!! I was going crazy over what happened to Nick and I loved how he was singing Thriller to himself after he encountered with the zombies!! And the way he was acting before runnin out of the hospital, quite like the Blade movie, chopping heads and stuff!
Will we be reading the new chapter on Sunday??
And what an amazing tribute the chapter become, with the death of MJ... *sigh*
It's a weird world don't you know it? It's a weird world and it won't slow down It's a weird world no matter how you roll it
Yep, the new chapter will be up... I guess technically today later!
Wow, you're right about MJ; I didn't even think about that... We put the Thriller video on the site as a tribute, but I kinda forgot about Nick singing it in that chapter. Rose wrote that weeks ago; it is kinda weird that we posted it just a few days before he passed...

It still gives me goosebumps.. I keep watching VH1 and I keep thinking of the story... And also the same thing in 00Carter with the moonwalking and the FANS "Bad" video.. It's so weird to realize how much MJ had an effect on our lives and also on our writing..
Anywho, I can't wait to read the new chapter!
