Kendall Carney always had her head in a book. Alex Gaskarth was your typical punk high school senior. What do two polar opposites have in common? An English teacher who gives a pen pal project. The catch? You don't know the other person's name. All you know is their address. Dear Book-Girl, Everyday at school, from the second I step out of my car, I'm searching for you. I look for anybody who fits your description of yourself. But I keep coming up empty handed. Maybe I'm looking too hard and you're right in front of me, but maybe I'm not looking hard enough. Maybe you're sitting in that one corner I forget to check everyday during lunch reading a book. Maybe you're not even real. Maybe this is all a dream and all of these emotions I feel while writing you aren't real. Maybe. Love Your Pen Pal, Guitar-Guy

Josh and Tyler have gone through a lot in high school - kidnapping, superpowers, you name it. So it's a relief when, after all is done, they manage to enjoy a summer filled with laughter, music and friendships. But they're in college now, and despite the special bond that links them, the boys seem to drift apart... and it doesn't help that Josh spends a lot of time with the new girl in town either, as words of a suicidal wave make their way onto campus.

Josh moves into a religious home for troubled boys and meets a boy just as troubled as him top!josh

Josh has been feeling other people's pain a little bit recently. Literally. Started: 2015 // Finished: May 27th 2017

TW/ self harm, depression (unedited) Tyler and Josh are finishing their tour in their hometown Columbus, Ohio. Tyler though is struggling to stay true to himself and is getting more depressed each day. Josh is doing alright, but he senses something is bothering Tyler, but he doesn't know what it is. (sorry this sucks lmao)

Tyler was sad. He was hurt, confused, angry, and scared, too, but most of all, he was sad. He didn't know if it was because he had been stuck in the same town for his entire life or it it was something a bit more serious, but that little uncertainty didn't stop him from applying to colleges all throughout the country and going to the one the furthest away from where he grew up. It wasn't the best choice he had made in his life, but suddenly there's this kid that shows up who dyes his hair a different color almost every month, and maybe, just maybe, he's the cure to Tyler's, well, whatever it is. This story is for all of you who don't know how strong and amazing you are, and for those of you who do. You have the power to do anything you can imagine. Use that power well.

I don't want to live anymore. My life is a joke. I cut, I have anxiety, depression, Paranoid Personality Disorder, and many more mind problems I'd rather not tell you. Trusting never comes easily, and I always battle with my mind. Life had bled out all of it's colors when a spark of neon flashed before my eyes. I didn't know it, I couldn't trust it, but I can't let it go. It's hope. Tyler Joseph and Josh Dun like to act like they care about me, but they don't. They're liars like everyone else in this dying world. But here's the catch: I want to trust them. I just don't know if I can. ***Warning: Will deal with depression, suicidal thoughts, and minor self harm***
