"Please get murdered on a different road; I'm trying to film!" It is a common sight to see Dan Howell, a famous YouTuber and vlogger, to be constantly interrupted by ambulance sirens that wail as if no one was there. Though, it is not common when Dan himself is associated closely to these ambulance sirens - especially if he was the cause of it. Little did he know that one day, he might just miss the two-note whine of an approaching ambulance. Little did he know that he would await and long for it every day. Little did he know that in the process, he would meet you. ~ DISCLAIMER: CONTAINS MENTIONS OF DEPRESSION, SELF HARM, EATING DISORDERS, ANXIETY, ETC.

I met her. And suddenly, I felt less alone. >●< This is a oneshot written specifically for a competition organised by tissuepaperhats. I hope you enjoy!

Dan sat on his bed and looked around. Everything around him was black and white. The posters on the walls were black and white. The clothes he wore were black and white. He ran his fingers over his black and white duvet, feeling how soft it was. "What is color?" Dan thought to himself. "Caspar said you could see it. But what is it? When I look around I see only the lightest shade of light and the darkest shade of dark, and the shades in between. This is not beautiful as Caspar said."

Phil wants to try out a sport this summer but nothing's working out how he planned he can't find anything he's good at and his last option is to do dance. Dan has a competition he's looking forward to in a couple of months he wants no distractions so that he can get his own solo for next competition.

Elise Mitchell is an Internet person. She used to watch from the outside, but two years ago she began a YouTube channel with a modest number of subscribers under the alias javastorm, a part of her life she has hidden from her friends and family so far. After a video of hers gradually goes viral, everything changes. She's recommended for a job she would have never believed could be hers. This, in turn, leads to meeting a couple of her role models, two suspiciously attractive vloggers called Dan and Phil. As her relationship with one in particular blossoms, life's other disasters strike as there is turmoil with her flatmate and a potentially catastrophic double meaning of 'viral' is unveiled, but will she break under the pressure? ~*~*~*~*~ The story begins in late 2014 and continues until New Year's Eve. It won the second place prize for best danfic in the 2015 Phan awards, and I received second place for best danisnotonfire author. {thank you very much to @virtuesintheverse for the gorgeous cover and also to @NotTheOrdinaryType for her incredible fanart and other edits}
