The main point isn't to overcome fear of vampires so as to fight some sort of discrimination, but more like overcoming it so as to allow oneself to... be bitten ???!

You did get it. In this world, being bitten by a vampire you trust is an asset, because it prevents other vampires from being able to roll/control you. Those that can't stand to have vampires bite them wind up being at a disadvantage in some cases. I'd say what those cases were, but that would be a spoiler. :D It does get explained in the story though.

Do not worry. If this was going to wind up being a slave fic, I would have put a big warning on it because even I am squicked by some of the ones out there. It's not going down that road.

Some more about this world does get explained in bits and pieces throughout the fic. For instance, you find out there are laws in place that regulate when a vampire can create a thrall (which is what happens when a vampire's will overrides someone else's). It gets mentioned, but that's not the relationship Billy/Teddy have.

I shall take it as a compliment that my writing style is good enough that you want to read more despite your reservations. That means I'm doing something right.

I'm confused about the political/social positions in this society. Seriously, how did it become okay for human predators to live side-by-side by humans. It just seems like letting wolves mingle with the sheep, in a pen, where the sheep can't leave.

I like the story, interesting idea, great voice.

I just kind-of get stuck in the predator eats prey issue. If I were a human in here, I would either want them disposed of or very, very far away from me.

This isn't enough, I want to explore your world. Can you cheat and just add the other chapters you've written. Please with candy covered ice-cream!

Well I'm sold :D The concept is interesting, they're acting like their adorable dorky old selves and the twelve parts call to me.
