"Tyler Joseph?"
"Here." He raised his hand.

Tyler's college professor went on down the list, calling names, taking attendance.
Marking out names who were absent, placing a check-mark next to the ones who were present. This year he had set a goal to have perfect attendance. It wouldn't be like last year. Spending days in his dorm, skipping class, not getting out of bed. He was at a new school and this would be his fresh start. 

But he started hearing voices a few months ago.

He never believed in psychology or therapists but something wasn't right. He knew that much. He was a little confused when they simply told him, "No, you're not crazy. You're just a mind reader. It's a talent." And sent him to live at this supernatural school.

Rosewood Academy. A school for the gifted. Supernatural creatures walked amongst him. Vampires, Werewolves, and Ghosts. Some humans too, like himself. But nobody was normal by any means. Tyler had never been to a supernatural school, he didn't think he needed to.
But apparently so.

When the teacher had finished attendance he got right to work, trying to ignore the whispers coming from his table partner.
It wasn't like a verbal whisper. More like thoughts that kept appearing in Tyler's mind. Thoughts that weren't his. Things like. "Sports practice," or "What time is lunch?"

The man had dark brown curls tucked under a baseball cap that was backwards on his head. Yellow glowing eyes, and gauged ears. Tyler wondered what he was for a moment. Looking him over. His ears weren't pointed, he wasn't see through, and he wasn't decaying anywhere that Tyler could see. "Hmm.."

Suddenly the man looked at Tyler, making him realize he had been staring.
He quickly looked away, hoping he didn't look like a weirdo.

"Are you new here? I haven't seen you before." He asked in a gruff voice after a moment had passed. Tyler nodded.
"I'm Josh. Josh Dun."
"Tyler-" He squeeked. His table partner looked shocked.
Processing that horrible voice crack, he cleared his throat and repeated.
"Tyler. I-I, Tyler Joseph." He breathed.
"Nice to meet you Tyler." Josh grinned kindly. Tyler nodded in response.
Looking down at his feet he thought. Yep he totally thinks I'm a weirdo.

After class had gotten started the teacher assigned groups for a project.
"-and lastly Tyler Joseph, Joshua Dun, Gerard Way, and Brendon Urie."
'..great.' Josh thought. Tyler unintentionally eavesdropped.
Tyler figured he didn't like the two other men coming towards their desk. They were kinda funny looking.

"Is this seat taken?" One asked.
He was wearing a military marching-band coat. A black coat with long white horizontal stripes across the front. He had red eyes, pale skin, and pointed ears. White hair -obviously dyed- that was short and hung over his forehead. Tyler wished he had cool hair. All he had was a buzz cut.

The other one was just staring, blank faced.
His eyes, skin, and ears were the same, but with brown hair that was shaved on the sides, twisted to the right on top and exposed his rectangular face. He was taller and lanky, wearing a gray suit jacket with a black shirt underneath.
His thick brows displayed a very serious expression on his face.
It made Tyler nervous.

"Nah. Sit." Josh replied, his teeth together. He wouldn't look at the boys.
"Excellent." The same boy spoke again, his voice was sort of sultry.
"This is Tyler. He's new." Josh gestured to Tyler as the boys sat across the table to face them.
"Oh! You are? Well isn't that wonder-"
"-Stop!" Josh slammed his fist on the table.

Tyler jumped, startled, staring at Josh. As well as the rest of class.
Despite this fact He kept his teeth clamped together and his fist clenched.

"Don't pretend you're innocent, Gerard." 
"Joshua, I haven't the slightest clue of what you are talking about." The white haired man known now as Gerard, cleared his throat. "I think you're a bit paranoid." He finished
