"I began to wonder, was getting my car radio back worth going through all this?"

Do you ever just feel like, I don't know.. You've messed up? Like you don't know where to go, or who to trust? Well that's how I felt everyday of my life until I met him. I'm Harley, and this is the story of how I fell in love with the mentally unstable piano player.

After having a fallout with his so called "friends", Josh starts hiding away in his bedroom. His parents, of course, are concerned, but in not wishing to invade his private life, they get him a dog. Tyler ends up helping Josh over come the plague of loneliness and slight depression, and even helps him find a new friend along the way. Yes, Tyler is a dog. No, this is not a Joshler fic. This is nothing other than an alternative universe story wherein a boy much like Josh Dun owns a dog named Tyler.

Jenna Black is a girl that struggles with social anxiety and likes to draw, and there's nothing interesting about her at all. You probably wouldn't even notice her walking by or maybe you wouldn't even know she exists at all, until she would run into you. She lives a plain life, avoids people and is fine with that. Until one cold December evening she bumps in to a man that took her drawing as an album cover three years ago and said something that made her stay alive just for a little bit. Though she still doesn't believe that she's worth the place on earth. Will he succeed to convince her?

Tyler is depressed, gloomy, and just plain miserable in Columbus, Ohio. He wants away from everything. He wants to start over and hope that this heavy feeling doesn't follow him to a new place. He is going to college now and hopes to clear the voices in his head.

Scarlette was never one to let her guard down. But, then she met Tyler and realized there were other people in the dark with her, just because she can't see them does not mean they aren't there. She found out that she wasn't the only one with scars. She realized she did not have to listen to her mind on her own. "You have the right to start over everyday." - Tyler Joseph. *contains topics such as self harm, suicide, abuse, and depression*

When Jenna was six years old, she watched a boy leap off a building, sprout wings as he fell, then fly off into the distance. Her young mind embraced and believed the boy was real, but as she got older, she was teased more and more about "The Boy Who Can Fly." Jenna will be forced to see therapist after therapist, counselor after counselor, all trying to break her belief in the flying boy. To avoid all of the ridicule from her family and her peers, she spends high school pretending to be "cured" from her wild imagination. Once she leaves for college, she intends never to tell anyone about the boy she saw that night, until it comes back to haunt her.
