***HIATUS***
Carnation has lived in Dema her whole life. Despite that, it has never quite felt like home to her. She feels smothered, unable to breathe within the restrictive walls. Unlike the others, content to live in this Glorious City, she has always longed to see what is outside and to be free from Dema's confines. At the same time, she grapples with a terrifying power she never wanted and learns of a secret group on the outside she thought only existed in stories.
****TRIGGER WARNING: MENTIONS OF SUICIDE AND POSSIBLE SELF HARM, EMOTIONAL ABUSE****
Based on info from this site (http://dmaorg.info/found/15398642_14/clancy.html), interviews and the Jumpsuit, NATN and Levitate music videos and the interactive Bandito experience imaband.ito
I did not create Dema. it was created by Tyler Joseph and Josh Dun.
I have related to Tyler's worlds of Dema and Trench a lot. So many of us see our struggles within this vague, grey city. I saw myself in Dema so much I began to create a character of myself living there to help me process my mental stuff. This is her story. My hope is that maybe, just maybe, you will see yourself in Carnation and that this inspires you in some way.

Alive | ør | Asleep •Jyler• 2/2
Alive | ør | Asleep, Book Two of: We're Human. COMPLETED Disclaimer: it mentions depression, self-conscious of one's body weight, birth, and sexual harassment. If you're triggered by either of those I suggest you don't read. However, I will be putting warnings at the beginning of each chapter to maybe save you from having any potential problems with the book. We're Human Book One: "We're human. We aren't gods. We have needs and desires and temptations. Some people's temptations are stronger than others. Temptations and desires don't make us bad, they make us human." 'We're Human' was a book that captured the feelings of temptations and feelings of desire. This book adds on to that, and a little bit more. Do you ever have reoccurring dreams? How about every time you close your eyelids, you continue your dream? Alive | ør | Asleep Book Two: "I've been having this repetitive dream." He swallowed, "like, every time I close my eyes I... I continue the story of this place." Jenna hummed, her cheek pressed against his tattooed chest. "That sounds fun." She mumbled sluggishly. She was almost asleep. "Mm-What place is it?" Tyler rubbed his hand across Jenna's back. It soothed her, making it even more difficult to keep conscious. "It's called dema." She hummed, although it was so quiet it was almost inaudible. "It's my own little hell." • • This book, once finished, will consist 53 chapters total. • • If you would like to check out my other books, Completed books: We'll Pee When We Get To Europe (• Twenty One Pilots Fan Fiction •) We're Human. • Jyler • (First Book.

the Quiet | A Tyler Joseph Fanfiction
The tour was supposed to be noise-screaming crowds, humming lights, chaos that left no room for feeling. She knew how to handle that. She'd built her life on moving fast, staying useful, never getting too close. But he was different. The frontman with heavy eyes and stained hands. The one who disappeared behind stage doors only to sing like he was bleeding. He didn't talk much. Didn't need to. His presence was gravity. And without meaning to, she fell into orbit. Behind curtains and closed doors, under low lights and high tension, something raw begins to bloom. A connection. A craving. A slow, inevitable unraveling. But the road doesn't stop moving. And neither does the weight he carries. A slow-burn, soul-aching, backstage romance about finding stillness in someone else's storm. For fans of quiet obsession, late-night vulnerability, and love that feels like a secret whispered in the dark. CW: This story explores mental health, anxiety, depression, and emotional trauma. It includes explicit content (smut), emotionally intense themes, and is intended for mature readers. Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction. It is inspired by a fictional version of Twenty One Pilots frontman Tyler Joseph. All characters, relationships, and events have been created or adapted for storytelling purposes and do not reflect real-life individuals or situations.Complete

Clancy posted many letters on dmaorg.info but there are many entries that never left his journal. What if he revealed the missing parts of his story ? Only then could we discovered the role Tyler has played in his life. ~This is a fanfic ((I think)) over the universe created by twenty øne piløts. It includes song references and theories ((but no ship)) so I hope it won't be confusing ~It implies that all rights to the letters coming from dmaorg.info belong to twenty øne piløts (those will be marked with a *) ~If you are not from the Skeletøn Clique, you are still welcome and I'll be glad to answer whatever question you might have and luckily you'll grow to love twenty one pilots as much as I do ~Also, it's my first English story : don't hesitate to correct my faults WARNINGS : mentions of depression, self harm and suicidal thoughts ~ june 2019 - august 2019Complete
The Few
I am a citizen of Dema. I am an escapee. I have failed time and time again. I have never seen the world outside this city, but one day I hope to. One day I will. My friend Clancy is like me. He is a citizen of Dema. He is an escapee. He is an exception. He has seen the world outside these imposing walls. He tells me about these people he's seen. He hasn't been able to speak with them yet, but he gets closer with each escape. I'm going to ask him to take me the next time he goes. I want to see these people for myself. I want to know if we can survive outside of Dema. Because I want to live.
