In the small town of Tinsworth, Alabama, young boys continue to take their own lives. With preachers resigning, friends acting strangely, and a mysterious face stirring up old memories, the town's long-lived god-fearing reputation is at risk of crumbling.
Tinsworth is forced to confront its deepest secrets as the truth behind these tragedies slowly unravel. Will these demons leave the community on their own? Or will they have to be forced out by hand?
"Like a dog that returns to his vomit is a fool who repeats his folly." Proverbs 26:11

I take requests :) All i've got to say is be careful reading these??? They can probably be pretty triggering and some may have happy endings and some may have sad ones. I'll write in each chapter summary or in the notes whether it'll be happy or sad. This is mostly just so i can write when i'm feeling really down and afraid, so they're'll be lots of angst. Just please please please be careful reading this, okay??Complete

Deja Vu (Joshler AU) {Inspired by "Heathens"} (#Wattys2016)
Inspired by "Heathens" by Twenty Øne Piløts from the soundtrack for the movie "Suicide Squad" WHETHER YOU SHIP JOSHLER OR NOT, YOU CAN STILL READ THIS. If you like Twenty One Pilots, you'll like this. "Jealousy is a disease, love is a healthy condition. The immature mind often mistakes one for the other, or assumes that the greater the love, the greater the jealousy - in fact, they are almost incompatible; one emotion hardly leaves room for the other." ― Robert A. Heinlein, Stranger in a Strange Land Tyler Joseph is a patient in an asylum, located in the swampland of Louisiana, far away from civilization. He is accompanied by his best friend, Josh Dun. Tyler has been in the asylum long enough to recognize every face, until one day, there is a new bloke in town...and he screams no good. For some reason, he can't help but feel like he has been through the certain chain of events before. Will he be able to break the cycle, or not? Read to find out. Published on: August 30Complete
