[ if you are very easily triggered by anything in the tags, please don't read this. i don't think this is very graphic, but please be cautious. inspired by Forest by twenty one pilots. ] definition of the forest fic from urban dictionary : A Twenty One Pilots fanfiction story originally published on Archive Of Our Own. It is based on the song "Forest" by Twenty One Pilots (a pretty great song used for a trauma inducing story). This is a work of Joshler fanfiction (Joshler being the pairing of Josh Dun and Tyler Joseph). It is pretty well written but is known to be cringey due to the sexual scene in the story. It also has an impact on Twenty One Pilots fangirls because of its tragic ending. enjoy.

Tyler Joseph is in wheelchair. Not for just a few weeks because he broke a bone. Not just for a few months after surgery. For life. He was born with a circulatory condition that made him unable to walk more than just a few steps each day. A few excruciatingly painful steps each day. He is the kindest, sweetest person on the planet, but he hated when people said he wasn't able to do something just because he was in a wheelchair. He had already overcome so much. He could do anything anyone else could. Tyler wanted nothing more than to find true love. That's all he dreamt about. Someone who treated him so kindly, someone who took care of him, someone who loved him. Someone who he could do the same for.

When Josh loses his boyfriend, he doesn't know how to handle it. Until he's given a gift that he didn't have the pleasure of receiving from the creator himself.

"dude, i'm telling you, tyler can't know. please don't tell him." - josh has been confined ever since he was eighteen. first, a prison. now, a mental hospital. - josh bit his lip before hastily asking, "can i.. am i allowed to know his name?" gaspipe only moved his finger in a circular motion, gesturing for josh to leave. the brunet sighed, standing and placing a hand on the doorknob. however, just before stepping out, he heard a name escape gaspipe's lips; "tyler. tyler joseph." and just like that, any and all excitement josh previously had was suddenly lost. of course, it had to be him. nevertheless, josh left the room anyway, preparing to live the last two days to their fullest before meeting with tyler. of course, it had to be a joseph. - //3-27-17// 6-28-17 \\4-7-17\\ 7-1-17 [Trigger Warning]
