The Joseph family has lived in their new house a week so far. Josh, two weeks.
Josh has gotten to know the Joseph family by listening to conversations and seeing how they act. Josh is certain Tyler is the one he has to save.
Josh has learned a lot about Tyler. He learned his favorite color, favorite food, hobbies, and he even learned that he faces depression and anxiety. Something Josh dealt with.
He doesn't anymore because he's a ghost, and he is now his own mind. Josh takes it as a sign. Josh must help Tyler survive, to stay alive.
Tyler hasn't done anything bad yet. It keeps Josh up at night; not that he needs sleep anyway. It terrifies him. What will he do? He can't touch anything! Maybe if he focuses hard enough?
Josh turns towards Tyler, who's sitting on the edge of the bed like Josh, and reaches his hand out to Tyler's shoulder.
Josh concentrates on trying to feel Tyler's shoulder. He feels a splitting migraine coming on, but he doesn't stop. Everything seems to be getting blurry, but suddenly Josh feels the rough, yet soft material of Tyler's shirt.
Tyler shutters, feeling something cold lay on his shoulder. He furrows his eyebrows and slowly look towards his right; to where he was felt.
"Hello?"
Josh eyes widen, Tyler felt him touch him. Can Tyler see him, though?
"Hello," Josh replies, a fond smile on his face.
Tyler shakes his head, staring back at the ground. He slowly gets up and rubs his hands on his jeans.
"You're alone, Tyler. Forever and always. Only evil follows you. Never nothing soothing." Tyler murmers.
Josh shoots up, "No, Tyler, I'm here. Please, I'm here to help."
Josh watches as Tyler gets dressed into his sleepwear and climbs in bed. He is faced towards the wall. Josh slides in beside him.
"Goodnight, Tyler. I wish I knew how to help you. Maybe some day." Josh mumbles.
Tyler doesn't respond. He doesn't respond because he can't hear him. To Josh, it feels like he'll never hear him. Tyler's in an endless void. All that surrounds him is evil. Blurryface. Josh is reaching for him, desperately trying to save him. Sadly, Josh feels hopeless. He's going to try his best and help, but Tyler can't hear him. How can he help if Tyler can't hear him? What can he do?
Tonight, neither Josh nor Tyler fall asleep. Tyler is sobbing into himself, while Josh ponders. The demons are out tonight, they always are. They're after Tyler tonight.
The room goes silent all of a sudden. Then, lightly, a soft voice is heard in the dark, quiet room.
"Why won't you let me go?
Do I threaten all your plans?
I'm insignificant.
Please tell 'em
You have no plans for me
I will set my soul on fire
What have I become?
I'm sorry."
