Charlotte Robin Dun is a smart girl- really. She just makes some poor choices with even poorer judgement. Her best friends aren't exactly the best of role models either. Her parents are upset with her, her brother Josh is disappointed in her, and Tyler Joseph- the boy with a gigantic crush on Charlotte- just wants to help her out. But things don't work out so easily for her when one fateful night both makes her world crash down on her while simultaneously giving her a reality check. Given one last chance to straighten up and adopt a better attitude, Robin finds herself struggling to cope with the terrible things that are continued to be thrown her way. All she wants is for everyone to leave her alone(be there), and Tyler Joseph makes the latter his personal mission. W: PROFANITY, VIOLENCE, DRUG USE AND ALCOHOL, AND FLUFFY MOMENTS THAT JUST MIGHT KILL YOU

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.

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

Valentine's Day is a big deal for Tyler Joseph. But this one is going to be special. Just this one.
